No 4.1 is jelly bean

What about that? :silly:

"The new version of Android, has
enhanced touch response, 60fps at
all functional and thus smooth

programs and everything else, since

Maybe in the end of the 2013 nAa will give us full working jelly bean just like the old times

In my perspective, it seems that JellyBean is to IceCream Sandwhich what GingerBread was to Froyo. Countless bug fixes and new features while maintaining the same UI (more or less)

Tegra 3 tablet for 190?
Yeahhhh, nice one google

Thought people would have learned by now? I mean, we do have ICS working on our phones

Wait for the time to come. Its the only one we can do now. Maybe i'll buy one of the next sony android. But this lovely walkman will be my first android and i'd like to keep it anyway....
Sung to you by a walkman.....

Thats the spirit!!! I am personally not going to waste money on a new phone just because it has a better android. This one is good for me for now and I love it more than others I had before. And afterall we will port it one day (I mean you not me XD- but who knows .. I started to learn now more about developing).

My W8 is my first android phone, and it won't be my last. I'm not selling it. IMO xda is the final word on what android version we can have on our phones. But if the devs in xda say it's impossible to port X android version to our w8/x8 then that's when i'll change phones.
But i ain't parting with my w8, locked bootloader and all.

Will see that if we really get the update.. If arc gets ics then SG II users will regret buying it. According to sources excynos chipset hardly get ics.
what i worry is android 4.0 is design for dual core phone. i just hope arc can handle it well.=/

Yup . most 2.3 devices should have that upgrade . but will it be smooth for us non dual core phone. that the worry=) lets hope for the best
You'd imagine they would have to SOME forethought into what may be on the horizon when releasing the Arc when they did and when they knew ICS was coming out. Hopefully it will be out and work like a dream while fixing my 1% battery

We're getting 4.1!!!!

Cheap thread . Sources are out middle of July, Jelly's faster and spicked with more features than ICS. Shouldn't be hard for our devs to update, but it'll take several weeks till the sources are out.
Well in all seriousness, this "project butter" featured in 4.1 is looking very appealing to me. If this Jelly Bean OS all goes well, I might not have to buy a new phone for maybe another year?

it incorporates smooth UI feature pioneered by developers here on xda.also something about CPU and gpu working together and not fighting for resources.
nexus 7 tablet is reasonably future proofed I think btw.except for maybe the ram.

Android 4.2 Key Lime Pie Information

Hello,
Seems like Google's busy again huh?
Notable new features:
-Google Now enhanced
-Google Play enhanced
-Stock Video Player updated
-Project Road Runner to increase your battery life 3 folds
-and more!
Hopefully these improvements do not require any help from Samsung? Gawd if a new hwcomposer is needed etc then we will be out of luck since Samsung probably will ditch us after 4.1...
Let's hear your thoughts.

This is the I9100 forum, spam somewhere else.
I find it hard to believe that road runner will be implemented to every device that gets the update. Nexus devices most certainly (they get everything) but I think the development to bring that to every device that's able to receive KLP will be too great and time consuming.

It is very possible it could be ported but if it is and there's no official release from Samsung for the i9100 its going to be very hard for the devs to pull apart the sources from another device, (say the i9300) and try to merge it together for ours. Most likely miss alot of key features. Like with JB devs cannot manage to get butter working, and their only hope is when JB is officially released, but even then there's rumours going around that the s3 won't even have a properly working project butter.

Precisely my point. If the LG is the only Nexus device released this time round (rumors point to 4 other devices by other brands), I can see XDAers gobbling up the LG Optimus Nexus.
The choice is much easier this time around, unlike the Galaxy Nexus which wasn't that much better spec wise than its contemporaries.

There's rumors of it as well, but personally at this current point in time I feel that the rumors for the LG Optimus Nexus are more "concrete",if that's the word for it.
Androidauthority has a write up on it:
http://www.androidauthority.com/galaxy-nexus-2-plus-gt-i9260-here-what-we-know-118932/
The specs don't look encouraging. It seems to be only a slight upgrade over the old i9250, and is packing a dual-core A9 CPU.
Now, I realize that not everyone goes for specs, but I'm a specs guy and the Optimus Nexus is the most exciting phone for me in quite a while. :fingers-crossed:

AFAIK, nobody knows how exactly it's supposed to work right? Maybe it's a rework of the software internals? If I have to guess, maybe it's a radical rewrite of the Dalvik VM to make it much more efficient, or aggressive optimization of Android OS itself.
There will be multiple nexus phones. Don't you guys read the latest news? The nexus program will see huge changes.

you apparently forgot about FXP team... these guys can work miracles, too bad I sold my lovely arc s ;(
The rumors, according to the article behind the bold letters , seem to be true. It's logically for Google to optimize Android for cheap (not necessarily old) phones, having in mind that WP8 for example is really smooth on modest hardware.
But, Hell Yeah, I'm afraid you all are right.
Sony will not come back to us. Two years ago, I had an Xperia X8 and Sony stopped the development to 2.1 Eclair, letting all owners without the native possibility to move apps to SD card. They used the same expression: "SONY cannot guarantee a satisfactorily user experience". Useless to say that the geniuses from XDA developed versions far beyond Gingerbread.
But, hope remains always ...
