Again, this is a beta released and not yet officially released by Samsung over Kies server. If you ever installed the XXKP4 or XXKP8, there isn't much special on this ROM, but one good thing about this ROM  is that it is more stabler than the last two builds and this time the camera, USB and SD is working now. Although, some bugs are still present since this is only a beta but hopefully we have an info from one of our trusted source that the Devs are are still working much harder this days to have a better and more stable ICS 4 for SGSII. So, let's hope that it will done as soon as possible for many of us can't wait much longer to have a more stable ICS 4.

Changes.
Camera working
USB and SD working
Battery feels better.
Phones looks faster.
Touch response is better.
Overall: Firmware more stable but still with some bugs.
