Rooting & Flashing Custom ROMs is one of the adventures you can embark on an Android phone. There is a very active community on XDA-Developers and other forums porting new versions of Android onto not so new phones. Its fun to resurrect your old phone and give it a new life. Caution is advised nevertheless.
Flashing ICS / JellyBean with Google Now seems to be the in thing now. Yesterday I installed ICS 4.0.4 with GN on my old Samsung Galaxy 4G and boy there is nothing like seeing my old phone dancing to new tunes.

There are few different ways to install GN on ICS and flashing a zip is one of them. This zip only installs GN. Follow the instructions here - http://goo.gl/yVv6N

ya.. i also follow XDA developers, one of the biggest mobile developing community. Presently i'm using old HTC HD2 with android ICS custom ROM on it. HTC HD2 literally never dies, it has recently received android JB build ROM. Haven't tried it yet. Waiting for a stable release.

Most of us upgrade our smartphones for the thrill of possessing it even though the marginal utility of replacing our existing device is not much. But flashing gives us the same thrill along with a challenge. We feel like a hacker. The challenge and the risk make this whole thing so pleasurable.
