mriley The only thing Im a fan of when it comes to the iPhone is the icons.I just put all my apps in a new folder called Apps and that sorts out them been spread out over home screens.I also like the fact that you get an update every Friday.

I don't recall which of you wrote about this but I am finding that my phone is running a bit hot around the camera lens as well. Suspect that some feature is running unnecessarily. I checked and found that the phone spent quite a bit of time running in the 1200 range.
Any suggestions?
Mine ran hot randomly yesterday, and even when i plugged it in to the charger it lost power, a simple reboot fixed it, BUT what i suggest is checking Samsung's built-in taskmanager 1st as it shows what apps are using a lot of power, if nothing's there then go to Settings -Accounts&Sync, and check each account as you may find that one of them maybe syncing or trying to sync a large amount of data.

You with your C901 is like me with my Nokia N81 and SE K850, i customised both so ridiculously that my N81 would end up getting into boot loops randomly and i actualy fixed my K850 by modding it, never had BROD again, i still have the K850, its running beautifuly, i removed most mods, and just have custom camera and audio drivers now, i miss those days though.
The video window thing from GS3 can be done on the GS2 with an app called Stick It, it works almost exactly as on GS3, but be warned, playing HD videos with it taxes the CPU, my phone ran extremely hot while watching an HD vid, but smaller vids e.g. VGA videos arent an issue, i guess in the GS3 its a well optimized feature with the CPU/GPU.

Just installed Resurrection Remix v2.3.Some nice changes from v2.2This mans roms are becoming pure gold.Nice job Westcrip.
Has the latest Siyah kernel and everything is flying.Also he's added the SGS3 launcher which is slightly modded.Also the installation is slightly different with the Full Aroma installer experience which allows you to customise your installation.
 
 
Overall a pretty fantastic rom.Hoping he doesn't get himself a S3.

I think I need to upgrade, I'm still running 1.9 and the battery life isn't great, ill see what 2.3 is like.
Btw - I'm using SuperVideo to get a pop-up window to watch videos with, it's great for me, always wanting to do 3 things at once  thanks for the suggestion tsepz

Asmyl - look Odin, ICS and Samsung Galaxsy son YouTube. Go to sammobile to get the ICS firmware.
Separately, guys, flipboard is now available for android in the play store. Also super video player which allows you to minimise videos while doing other tasks much like on the SGS3 is also available.
Check them out, really nice.
