GB in RAY rocks again. I disabled the Live wallpaper 'Grass' and set it to 'No wallpaper' (
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=no.wallpaper and see the results
Cheers!

Just upgraded my ray to the official 4.0.3 that came out today.
First thoughts:
+ it has all the goodies that Sony bragged about and they all work great
+ UI is nice and smooth if there aren't many apps running
+ new camera app, now we have an on-screen shutter button (you can switch back to the tap-to-snap feature if you want)
+ now we can uninstall that useless Wisepilot app (among with 3 others), after a fresh install I had like 330MB of free internal memory
+ battery life seems better, I used the phone for 50 minutes for setting up and some light browsing through wi-fi, all that with 11% of juice left
+ the new browser is super fast compared with the old one and also looks a lot better
+ on screen keyboard seems more accurate, not a single typo so far, might be just placebo though
- UI is a bit laggy sometimes (let's say, if you have a lot of apps running)
- screen capture is gone
- some widgets are buggy
I'm from Romania and the update is available here as well, also my phone does not appear
in this list and it still got the update.

Well, so far none that I can see. Chroma noise and oversharpening are still there. One thing I noticed is that the files are bigger now, around 2.5-3 megs to be specific.

It's exactly the same music player, it doesn't have the Clear Bass feature.

To take a screen shot you need to press power + volume down
Quick Question, when you updated to ICS are all preinstalled apps updated too? like
>Facebook
>Google Map
>Google Play
>Adobe Flash
>Youtube
>Gmail, Search
Thanks

I hope you know that with ICS you can now disable apps and services you don't use/want to preserve RAM usage.

Power+vol. down did the trick, thanks.
You need to update those apps manually as they're all outdated (just like Gingerbread).
