Release Date is Linux Epoch? - Glass General

According to the device information, the Google Glass was released on 12-31-1969. I found this slightly comical, but this probably will confuse some younger XDA members.

Lol good find!

Possible jelly bean ban

Has anyone seen where apple is going after JELLY BEAN 4.1 OS and the SAMSUNG GALAXY NOTE 10.1 for pat. infringement they are trying to get the two banned and a judge is getting ready to make a judgement on where if GOOGLE and SAMSUNG are guilty as charged this is where I say come on CRAPPLE are you serious seems to me that they are really worried about losing their customers tell me what you think

What I read about this is that they have added jelly bean to the lawsuit but only how it is being used on Samsung tablets. It is not a lawsuit against jellybean.

Crapple go for Samsung all the time because Samsung are the only ones who make big money
They said that they waited until all variants had the jb update. Why is that really. So you can maximise the damages claim

Yeah sorry guys I over looked the exact court date of 2014 but never the less but by that time or possible and more likely that it will be later we will probably be on O.S.10 I mean how does this sound to you. Android O.S. <TOOTSIE ROLL 10.0.1> LoL ha ha ha ha but I am sure CRAPPLE would go after GOOGLE on that as well probably trying to say that GOOGLE can't say the term 10.0.1 because it is to close to looking like 10.1 IPUKE TABLET it is just showing the facts that the ANDROID OS SYSTEM is out doing CRAPPLE hands down you see how that they FIRED their top 2 guys the designer of the CRAPPLE IOS because he wouldn't apologize to the customers for the biggest screw up of the year remember the MAPS deal but anyway I wish they would just accept the way things are and move forward whoa I had to channel my inner Obama LoL and THANKS GUYS AND GOD BLESS YOU ALL

Nexus 4-5

I will get my nexus 4 in summer, maybe may or June, so should I wait for the n5 or just stick with the n4 ?
And isn't the hardware on the n4 is going to do great handling any apps or games without any problems for a few years ? I mean it's the best out there I think...
1 last thing what about the back glass cover does it crack easily? Even if I bought a grab or sth?

1.Yes.

Give him a break guys, he's using the xda app and obviously there isn't a search button. And it would have been easier to just answer him than try to be a mean mum.
To OP: You wouldn't regret getting a Nexus 4 mate. The hardware would undoubtedly be outdated in a few years, but it certainly won't fall behind by that much. And you wouldn't feel too far behind from new android versions since this is a nexus.
The glass I think is fragile but putting a case on the back would definitely protect it. But temperature changes (sudden ones) are rumored to affect the glass and cause them to spontaneously break without producing splinters. Based on the data though, one can assume that only a few units are affected by this condition (mine too, unfortunately )
Anyways, it's your decision. If you think you can wait, then get the 5, but if your hands are itchy and want to get a sexy device, get the n4
In my opinion though, wait till june. If the nexus 5 launches and you don't like it, then get the 4, if you do though, then obviously get the nexus 5.

Im getting pissed off of people whining about using the search button rather than just answering. If everyone just used the search button you would quickly have a dead community.

It's already announced with the specs on phone arena and other sites I can Google it and see for yourself; tegra 4, full hd display, 2gb ram and the price omg
And the specs are so promising, that's the reason why i made this thread.
And the rumored price is said to be around 300$

I'd say hold out for the N5 if it were to be released around May. I doubt that since the N4 was released just a few months ago. Better yet, wait for that Moto X phone..

Exactly and also it mentions tegra 4? That outdated piece of garbage. Qualcomm is currently the best chip. Agreed tegra has better gaming performance but overall Qualcomm blows away tegra.
Anyway there won't be another nexus coming till October. May be they will have a Moto X phone or something but not nexus. That happens once a year during holidays.

BGR might be the WORST tech blog for news. There is no way in hell Google would risk enraging everyone who just got their nexus 4 by releasing another phone in six months.

New Nexus Forum?

Is there going to be a new forum section here on XDA for the new nexus 7 when it releases?
Probably. It will definitely be a popular device with quite a bit of active users, discussion and development.
Sent from my XT907 using xda premium
how long before it releases do they usually create a new forum for it? Just curious.
It is actually released in certain stores, just sayin. (Wish it was released over here in Europe).

Galaxy S II Plus getting Android 4.2.2 update in Germany, build I9105PXXUBMG8

Seriously? So touchwiz has problems on the note 2 but a now ancientish phone is recieving this update now? Thats it final straw. Bye bye note 2. Im getting a nexus!

If you like the nexus more than the awesome note 2 you should do that. I love my note even if i have to wait for the update to 4.2.2

If you like the nexus why don't you just put stock android on then... omg you have 4.2.2 like the nexus which has 4.3 atm but at least you'll have the second latest rom. I rather wait than get rid of such a brilliant phone.

Thank you for the extremely useful and important information. This topic was just what we all needed!
Oh, wait, I thought we were in the SII Plus forums.
It's hard to believe that he has been lurking in the forums for 4 years and still posts something so craplike.
One answer to you Goodbye, Auf Wiedersehen, до свидания, Arrivederci - don't let the doors hit you on your back
Who said about any problems with Touchwizard, it's only release schedule, new Android for Note 2 will be released about 2 months after Note 3 premiere. And will most probably be 4.3 and not 4.2.2.

Yea alright keep your hair on. If you dont like the subject dont comment. So what if I have been lurking I may not be a technical genius or a developer but I have helped a couple of people out while ive been here. Isnt that what this forum is about? Learn and share?

While we are here let's put even more metaphorical wood to the proverbial fire ... even the Galaxy Tab 2 is now getting android 4.2.2.
This is so going to anger people more for no good reason. ( rub hands and smile in an evil way ... )
So much hate for the only other manufacturer that actually does update their hardware for a decent number of Android versions if you exclude the Nexus devices.
Sure they are slow but come on what if you bought an LG or HTC , you would be lucky if your device got a single version upgrade.
we samsung customers are lucky enough compared to other brands that rarely provide updates to their phones. don't worry I'm pretty sure we'll get one sooner or later. if not I'll be selling this and my S4 and get a new one that deserves a love. nevertheless i love this note2. and my S4 but i love this note more

LOL precisely. Go on and get a Nexus FFS. I'm just waiting 4.2.2/4.3 for touchwiz features. Otherwise I might as well flash Cyanogenmod and get it over with meh. All the incessant whining here is just getting annoying. As if lot of other carriers are rolling out updates readily for their older (relatively) flagships.
Thread closed as is frankly useless.
