What IS imp... moreBtw you say it’s faster but I’m not even having any slow redraw problems with the home screen and the one I am using now, like I was getting from time to time on ICS. So what will I notice is faster if I decide to do this?
Did it add anything new that was missing in XXDLIB?

There are two ways of doing the upgrade.
1) You can flash an OTA update which is 283.9Mb, but you will need to flash ICS (XXBLG8) back onto your phone first and then put JB on top of it.
ICS:

JB:

or
2) (and this is the way I went), put a clean install on your phone.

It's a 789.4Mb download, but I prefer this ROM because it is pure JB, not just an overwrite.
Take my word for it, this ROM is FAST!
I've been told that this is the ROM that will be released for UK users, but only time will tell.
p.s. Yes, the black band (as you call it) is still present.

Some one posted that the XXDL5 was old so I didn’t bother to do it.
Is the black band still at the top of the pics in the Gallery in landscape mode?
Post link to XXDLI8 if it is newer than what I am using please.
