Samsung Wave receives Android 4.0.4 Ice Cream Sandwich port

The Samsung Wave may run Samsung's BADA OS by default, but some developers have managed to port Android 4.0.4 Ice Cream Sandwich onto the device. Its not common for a non Android device to get an Android ROM so its nice to see the skilled developers at work.

However this port is not recommended on a device you use on a day to day basis. While the camera, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth work, Users wont be able to take calls or send SMS messages once you have updated as these features are still "work in progress".
