WIll the Nexus 7 be getting 4.2 ota on November 13 to match the Nexus 4 and 10? Thanks.
Yes it will come with 4.2 jelly bean .
I mean for current Nexus 7 users...
I'm curious too. I really want to try it out. I'm guessing since its a nexus device, it should come down too, or at least have an official flash image since they are bringing out Nexus 7 32gb devices.
yea, worst case scenario the newer devices will have a short exclusivity window of a couple weeks. But being a nexus device, we WILL get it shortly
Fingers crossed.
My question is do I need to unroot my tablet in order to get the OTA?
I would much rather be on stock 4.2 than rooted 4.1.2

just flash a stock rooted 4.2 ROM when I comes out.... you can OTA while unlocked you just lose root if on a stock rooted 4.1.x rom
Crossing fingers as well. I need the multiple users setup badly, its to the point that i removed all my twitter,facebook and gmail just to keep my kids out of my stuff. I need to lockdown the playstore too. The way it is now its just no fun for me to use having to log into the store and visit gmail via browser..
This for me is the biggest improvement i look forward too. My GS3 could use multiple users as well at times.. again when i let the kids use it..

That's your choice. I have 4.1.2 on mutt Amaze...I don't believe for a second someone on xda hasn't ported for NxS.
N7 will get 4.2 ''' the new 32 gb comes with it and comes out on nov 13 with no hardware changes...I predict 4.2 flash able by eob 14th

Nexus 7 JB 4.2 ROM
I am a rom developer for the Nexus 7 and as of right now am working on an experimental 4.2 ROM port the device. I downloaded the nexus 4 system dump earlier today and I am already making great progress to getting this ported. The only problems are: 1. The Quick settings status bar feature is not working. 2.Since im porting parts from a phone, it wont have the multi-user GUI that 4.2 for tablets is shipping stock with, but there is alternatives. I WILL UPLOAD THE FIRST VERSION OF 4.2 FOR THE NEXUS7 TONIGHT!!! (and if i dont, i'll have it up tomorrow). Reply to this if you would like to know more. And if you would like to try my 4.1.1 rom for the nex7 (with an incredible amount of 4.2 features) click this link and give it a try!

The current version is 4.1.2 and the upcoming release will be 4.2 - so no they're not the same thing.

It is similar to apple's air play. It is built into 4.2. It mirrors your display on TV with a miracast certified appliance such as netgear's ptv3000.

It took them a long time to even support ICS never mind a newer OS.... I agree it would rock to have it.
So I have my Nexus 7 and and Galaxy Nexus (Verizon), and I can't get NFC to work between the two. My Galaxy Nexus is only unlocked and UNrooted and is on ICS 4.04. Any suggestions?

If I read a review correctly, the gnexus must be on 4.1 before it will communicate properly with the N7.

I just got it to work! I was reviewing some other posts and they said to hold the GNex to the upper right side of the back of the N7. I will do a website but not a pic from the GNex. I think I have to be on Jelly Bean on the GNex to be able to do a pic.
My GNex running 4.1.1 and Nexus 7 do work with NFC. You have to hold them pretty much back to back, basically put the GNex across the Nexus logo on the back of the Nexus 7.
The screen will zoom out a little bit, plus a sound. It'll work for there. I couldnt get a pic to transfer (seemed to activate BT) but web links did, I havent tried anything else to be fair.

Oh, sorry. I didn't realize you were on Verizon. Not sure if CDMA devices can upgrade to 4.1.1 or not
To upgrade your Verizon (CDMA) Galaxy Nexus, I found this guide. Was only a Google search away. http://androidadvices.com/update-verizon-wireless-galaxy-nexus-jellybean-411-firmware/
I also have a Verizon gnex (though mine is on a 4.1 ROM) and I was able to get out to work. I found it helps if you go into settings and turn NFC off and then back on and then do the same for the android beam option. Sometimes when doing this it would freeze, but a restart of the tablet would allow you to turn NFC off and back on. Works best if you hold the gnex so that the 4G LTE logo is just above the top of the tablet on the left side

"There is no support for 4.2 on Nexus S and Xoom. Those devices should continue using 4.1.2. "
source: https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups=#!topic/android-building/-ymcoMuDAbA
And there will be no official 4.2
I think 4.2 and 4.2.1 have lots of nice new features (like the quick settings tiles in the notification bar) but under the hood, it's a gigantic piece of sh!t, it seems. I've never seen my NS4G chew through the battery so fast in my life!!! Leaving mobile data enabled is a sure death-sentence for the battery in a matter of hours, even if it's in sleep mode!!

Still early, it keeps getting better and better everyday! I am running DaxMax's Xylon 4.2.1 on my Galaxy Nexus and it is by far the best Android I have had to date! All this negative talk has a lot to do with certain Mod's and certain Gapps people are trying to run with 4.2.1 that breaks things and are not compatible. There is a lot of dirty flashing and ignorance contributing to this gossip about 4.2.1 being a disaster. The first time I flashed it I hated it and directly went back to 4.1.2 thinking I would wait til it is complete but the second time I flashed it I am convinced I will not be looking back!
I'm happy running 4.2... Its issues that were also common in 4.0/4.1 when they were first introduced. There are some great people working on it, so I imagine it'll get better soon.

EDIT: It's alive!! And it's working beautifully! I don't know what error it is you're talking about. This is nice!
Just a tip to fellow flashers though: you need to flash separate camera and keyboard zips (but only if you use gesture typing), and superSU. Other than that, solid man, just solid.

Android 4.3/CM10.2 ROMS are growing in number, and many former Android 4.2 and CM 10.1 ROMS have been evolved into the newer builds. Problem is that Graphic Glitches on Android 4.3 for Samsung Exynos phones are substantial, and they make the user experience quite unstable and at times very irritating.
We need developers to continue updating 4.2 ROMS with the latest features (e.g. Focal, HALO2, etc...) for a while until the Graphic glitches on 4.3 ROMS are dealt with sufficiently. Maybe a new PA or CM 10.1 ROM would be a good place to start. Current 4.2.2 ROMS still being developed lack many new features and recent updates.
Thanks for everyone who helps. If you agree with the idea, press THANKS below to show the number of those interested.

Try out SlimRom build 8. It's 4.2.2 and stable, fast and battery friendly and include all the customization options you need.
With that said I would also like to say that my modded stock and odexed 4.1.2 is working like a charm and nothing beats it.
Try developing yourself and you will know how difficult it is. Just begging and demanding don't work. Go fork some repos and port 4.3 changes back into 4.2
And the issue of graphic glitches is not anyone's but Samsung's fault because they haven't released updated GPU drivers. And non of the 4.3 Roms mentioned stable so such glitches are expected.
If you are not satisfied with whats avilablr then either make your own stuff or suffice with whats available.
