(1) root ur device using "andorid emulator" trick

(2) install Busybox (1.18.4)

(3) install SU files (ICS specific)

(4) do some checks for free space, tmp directory

(will remove Google Maps if required)

[*] Before u begin:

(1) make sure u have installed adb drivers for ur device

(2) enable "USB DEBUGGING"

from (Menu\Settings\Developer Options\Development)
