Has anyone with a rooted phone tried Jelly Bean yet? I'm hearing outstanding things. Looks like they are finally putting a huge effort forward to improve integration and smoothness.

Project Butter.

[MattFancy]

I have it on my Kindle Fire. It made my KF actually worth using. I've been debating about rooting my SIII to get it.

[Buford]

heard it was coming to my Galaxy Nexus....then read that Verizon is dragging their feet again on a release. So, we'll see.

[Sticksboi05]

Verizon needs to get its **** together. If you're gonna charge people up the ass, get us simple f-ing updates.

[spjunkies]

Why did I have to get the ****ing Bionic? I'll be lucky to even get the ICS update :(

Bionic is getting it in the next week and JB by the end of the year.

I sure hope you're right, but I don't take Motorola/Verizons word on anything.

[Maxito]

I still haven't got the ice cream sandwhich update for my thunderbolt... Imagine the wait I have to do for the jelly bean upgrade.

[CrazyZeb]

Got it on my Nexus 7. I'm coming from Android 2.2.1 (Froyo) on my phone so it's obviously a big improvement for me.

[Mufumonk]

It's moreso Verizon than Motorola. There is an ICS leak currently sitting on the Moto staging server. After multiple builds popping up on the testing servers it's fairly safe to say this is the final build awaiting approval from Big Red.

Back to Jelly Bean....has anyone tried Google Now?

http://www.google.com/landing/now/

[Rumrunner6900]

I have tried a few of the alpha ROMs for my Epic Touch 4G. Even with the bugs, it's buttery smooth! Just finally got to try it out properly by getting a Nexus 7 yesterday. So far, I love it. Nice and smooth and lag free with plenty of features. This is probably the first version I think could stand on it's own, without needing a Sense/ Touchwiz/etc. skin.

This is also my first device in a long time that I haven't felt the need to root....and that's saying a lot!

[MintHillSkinsFan]

Will my Sprint Epic(Galaxy S) handle it? Or even 4.0 for tha matter? I'm still on Froyo.

ICS can sbsolutely stand on its own. The overlays weigh Android down.

I have ICS on my Kindle Fire right now. It's nice but kind of buggy.

How smoothly does Jelly Bean run with KF? If you don't mind, could you PM me the website you used to get Jelly Bean?

Thanks.

Check out the XDA developer forums and search for your device. As long as it is properly rooted, there are plenty of ROMs out there for it...even JB ones! Still alpha, but you will get a taste


Froyo? You mean Gingerbread, right?

Lol....he may still be stuck on Froyo with the Epic

And most everything is working for the JB ROMs for the Sprint Epic 4G Touch. I tried out this one first:

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1810315

But this one is pretty cool too:

And 4G works just fine! I had the sound issues and Pandora wouldn't work right, so it was a no go for me right now.

Verizon has announced that Jelly Bean is being rolled out to the Galaxy Nexus.

I'm installing Jelly Bean right now, will give my thought a bit later. I'm excited!

[Sticksboi05]

Check system update. They are rolling it out in waves. You'll need to be on Wi-Fi.

So far it seems really smooth and the voice recognition is solid though I only tested if for the hell of it. It's still a gimmick just like Siri.

[Sticksboi05]

Google Search is now awesome! And Google Now will be the ****. I also want to use more Android Beam.

[skinfan2k]

im still confused on how to do this with my KF

[Buford]

My phone downloaded the update overnight.

[Sticksboi05]

Anyone else with Nexus devices upgrade yet?

[Skinz4Life12]

no i haven't gotten it yet!!!!

NVM i just checked it its there! but I have to be on wifi. Does it rule?

[renaissance]

Why are the names for these so goofy? And on a related note, I'm due for an upgrade. Any recommendations for a new Droid device on Verizon?

[Sticksboi05]

Better than Android 4, Android 5 no?

On Verizon the Galaxy SIII is the best phone but I'd still rather have my Galaxy Nexus because I value having pure Android/faster updates over a slightly better processor/screen. But the SIII is definitely the top of the line.

[No Excuses]

I have it on my Kindle Fire now. It is absolutely amazing.

The smoothness is great. My biggest problem with Android was always the lag and glitchy interface. This runs like butter. If the new Android phones run like this, I don't think I'll be switching to the iPhone either.

[Sticksboi05]

My Nexus has improved signal since the Jelly Bean upgrade. I believe it's because they upgraded the radio firmware as well.

Android 4.2 Key Lime Pie will be revealed in less than two weeks as well as the new Nexus phone. Also the rumors surrounding the Samsung Galaxy SIV are that it's essentially a laptop within a smartphone.

[Skinz4Life12]

will the Galaxy Nexus get KLP?

[Btubes18]

My Nexus S 4g is still terrible...some user interface updates are better, but overall this phone may be the worst phone I have ever had. Even worse than a "Go phone". Can't wait to get a new phone once my contract is up.

This is the only problem I have with the Android system. There's phones out there that are barely a year old and still don't even have ICS. Yet they're about to come out with KLP. My few month old SG3 doesn't even have Jelly Bean yet.

[MattFancy]

Really? I thought they would push Jelly Bean to that phone asap.

I'm loving JB. Getting updates sooner was part of the reason i bought the GN though

The problem with the non-Nexus phones is that everything has to be tested by carrier and phone maker. It sounds like JB should be coming soon for the S3, but how soon is anyone's guess. And Jelly Bean has been out for what? 4-5 months now?

Which is why you get a Nexus phone :)

Best part of Key Lime Pie is Project Roadrunner - aka huge increases in battery life.

I have never said that. Someone else on here was having a lot of issues though. It's an awesome phone and I can't wait to get Key Lime Pie. The one drag on the Nexus is the battery life is inexcusable. Project Roadrunner should alleviate that.

I was holding out for a Nexus phone, but the SIII just seemed so perfect. It's a great phone don't get me wrong. I just get so frustrated with the whole Android updating situation. It really isn't that hard, but its mainly the carriers that drag their feet constantly on this stuff. There's no reason they can't push these updates out faster, but they just don't want to put the time into it.

There's zero excuse for the delays (Google tried to form an agreement to have a time limit on delaying updates) but, again, that's why I got a Nexus.

[MattFancy]

Its definitely not on Google. Its the phone makers and the carriers. And mostly the carriers. For instance, JB is out on I believe all international GSIII's. Yet none of the American carries have pushed out a JB update yet. Why? They have to load all their crap on there. Once a stable JB Rom is out, I'm rooting my phone to get the Verizon crap off my phone. Does anyone seriously use VZ Navigator?

Not yet. We'll all know more once they officially announce it. I would imagine all Nexus devices will definitely get it. Other than that, it's anyone's guess. Like I said earlier, there are still phones waiting for ICS let alone JB. So who knows what will get updated and how long it will take.

Regular KF. I haven't noticed any crazy bugs with rooting it.

But if you're looking for a tablet, might as well get the Nexus 7. Then you don't need to worry about rooting it and its the same price as the KF.

LG Nexus 4 confirmed and should be announced in 6 days.

http://www.tapscape.com/lg-nexus-4-confirmed-by-lg/

This phone is going to be HSPA+, and have only 8GB of internal storage which is a problem for apps, even if it has removable storage this isn't ideal. No LTE just seems like a step backwards. LG is not exactly known for creating magical hardware either.

I think with the last Verizon Galaxy Nexus, Google and Verizon dropped the ball as the phone had a lot of drama. Overall I don't think carriers/Verizon want phones with no bloatware which is why you are seeing this LG Nexus, which will probably be sold through the Google Play store only.

I am rocking a Motorola Razr HD and I couldn't be happier. Point is I am not impressed with this Nexus 4 device, at all.

Wow, just read the rumored specs. To have no LTE is absurdly pathetic. And that would be a step back but as we know, you never know until it's announced regarding hardware. I don't see how, in 2012 you release a top line smartphone with no LTE. The only good thing is my Galaxy Nexus would then still be the best Nexus device available and I won't jhave to feel bad that it's time at the top is over.

[MattFancy]

So here's the new stuff:

Nexus 4: http://www.theverge.com/2012/10/29/3569540/google-nexus-4-preview-price-release-date

Nexus 7 (32GB+mobile): http://www.theverge.com/2012/10/29/3568614/nexus-7-32gb-hspa-tablet-available-november-13

Android 4.2: http://www.theverge.com/2012/10/29/3569244/android-4-2-new-features-miracast-gesture-keyboard-multiple-users-photo-sphere

---------- Post added October-29th-2012 at 01:59 PM ----------

So with 4.2, nothing really too ground breaking. The multi-user support for tablets is pretty neat. Miracast seems pretty sweet, but will take time for more TVs to incorporate it before it becomes widely used. And the new keyboard is nice, but if you have Swype its nothing really different.

[Sticksboi05]

Galaxy Nexus should get Android 4.2 within 2 weeks.

[CrazyZeb]

I thought the last update was great (wanted a swype keyboard), I love having a Nexus device and getting things first. My phone has never gotten an update in 2 years.

Jelly Bean is the operating system.

The Jelly Bean launcher will just give your phone the look of the Jelly Bean OS. And you'll need a Launcher like Tesla, GOEx or something like those for it to work.

[Tulane Skins Fan]

I figured I'd put this in here, even though I am asking about a jelly bean phone, but...

I'm really into the Google Now feature, but am wondering how I can make it work even better. I don't understand if I need to add cards to it, or if they will just show up at some point when something happens that warrants one. Also, do I need to sync my google calendar with my outlook (main) calendar or will google now pull from my calendar so long as it my phone syncs with it?

If you're hot on the iPhone go for it. Its easy to use and it works. If you want an advanced phone that does more and gives you more power out of your phone, so that you can take advantage of new technology, pick one of the android phones.

As far as windows phones, I don't have one but some of them are intriguing. Personally, I'd go windows before I bought an iPhone now.

HTC One phone came out for pre order today for AT&T and for Sprint tomorrow. Cant wait to get my hands on that phone. Sucks that it comes with 4.1, but whatever.

I have had an iphone for the past 2 years, mainly because of apples immaculate hardware, i hate the plasticky feel of phones. But the HTC One takes the cake. I was going to wait for the S4, but the more I read about the HTC One, i am convinced that this will be my new love lol

[HBnotBlades]

I thought I'd chime in, I've had 4.2 on the Nexus4 for a few months now. I'm a big fan. The access to the camera from the home screen is great and once I spent some time using google now I absolutely love it. If I'm flying it keeps me updated on when I have to leave for my flight, taking into account traffic and airline delays. The voice command work really well, but I mostly use them to set alarms and timers.

Over all I'm pretty happy with it.

[Redskin4ever]

I have a Droid 4. I love having an actual keyboard to type on. The problem is that since the update, they keyboard shift key doesn't always work. I have found that if I hold it and type the key, it accepts the shift key. But just pressing it, doesn't hold until the next key like it used to. Also, the caps lock doesn't work. The weird thing is, that occasionally it will work. I've yet to find a pattern of working vs non-working. The only other problem I've seen is the voice to text doesn't always work. That seems less frequent than the keyboard issue.
