Lenovo is going to release a non-customized update known as the Android 4.0.3 Ice Cream Sandwich. However, it won’t consist of Google play store, applications, or even Lenovo’s launcher. Even though this might sound great to developers, it definitely isn’t appealing to customers.

The guide also consists of screenshots and this is useful for beginners. You can download it here and this guide from here if
