well this may sound stupid question, but now when jellybean have been officially released, how long it will take to get it on neo? im pretty excited about it... will it take days, weeks or months...?
maybe never t think
Thread closed, check the General section, it exists already.

I notice a lot of members are quick to jump to conclusions without anything to back it up.
Negative comments like "Dude, never gonna happen" are discouraging to the community and developers. Yes some people like to prove these people wrong, but to say that something will never happen is wrong in my eyes.
Examples of this would be the recent VMWare thread and the nexus app dump in the dev section
Developers work hard daily to make sure our phones are running smoothly with the latest firmware and software. and to say it won't happen is wrong unless you have solid facts to back up your claim...
Rant over
I know what you mean, and to a point agree.
From the other perspective, we've been talking about ICS here for at least a month now. Now you'll find about 10 threads saying are
we getting ICS???
we getting ICS???
we getting ICS???
we getting ICS???
That question has been answered 50 times. But more threads will come up. It's been discussed extensively already. People say search before making a new (repeat) of an existing thread, and anyway, when you post a new thread, it shows you similar ones...so WHY???! That gets my goat.....
Yes, a lot of people are wanting ICS. At the moment i'm not holding my breath for a ICS rom to be release. I have a rough idea of when we may see ICS to older phones such as the x10 & xperia ranges. I don't think we will be seeing ICS roms for at least another 2/3 months.
Developers have lives that come first, but for people to say ICS will never come to our phone is wrong, because even the top end phones like the Galaxy S2 haven't got a ICS rom yet. So why are people so quick to say we won't get it at all?
Well in vmware thread it wasn't a thread to discourage anyone! It was a research I made about trying to support virtualisation over android phones and I wanted to share it and try to progress in it! So please don't judge any incomplete discussion with developers until we reach a yes or no if it could be done or not!
I'm not having a whak at the developers. It's more of a rant to those people who don't offer suggestions, those that just down play everything (eg: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=19405449&postcount=2). The VMWare is a great idea and i'm looking forward to seeing if anything comes out of it.
I picked those 2 as an example but throughout this forum, there's a lot of those comments that fit this
Well...
we getting ICS yet???
Yes no maybe

Anyway, real dual touch in the x10 mini... not gonna happen!!! Nobody should disagree with that...

You're more in the know than i am. but i'm guessing another 2/3 months before we see ICS roms? :S
I can't believe you asked that question. (with about 15 existing threads on the matter now)
just stick to the topic. it isn't about ICS or any particular mod/rom/os. but comments that surround projects. people just seem to be too quick to jump to conclusions without any proper knowladge about what's involved.
Anyway, got the rant out of my system, i'm not gonna change the behaviour of a whole forum. I know to disregard those sorts of comments.
If some one would sticky them in bold letters on all sections it would be better. or else people will be posting asking about ics.
I apologize if this has already been discussed, but I didn't see any threads regarding my specific question. I dont get on the forum chat to often anymore so I havent been following the latest news.
I dont know much about developing, infact I know just enough to have my thunderbolt rooted and flash software to it. With ICS on the Gallaxy nexus now being sold, will this open the door to developers getting the software and framework to then apply to custom ICS roms for other devices like the thunderbolt or Dinc2?
I haven't really seen any successful ICS roms out yet. Is it just a matter of time before it is put to work?
Source has been out for weeks, its already being worked on.
so, its just a matter of time then. How are the soft keys going to take affect since all other devices have them already? You think the developers will simply find a way to make that an option to apply or not?
Would SII get Android4.1 JellyBean update?
Not until 16 October 3029. (Yes, we're sick of these threads already)
Nobody knows.

This is a legit question, I don't see why everyone hates.
If you're asking whether the S2 will get an official release the answer is maybe. Yes because JB is not a major release compared to GB->ICS. No because our phones are now a year old and the truth is support will slowly fall off.
If you're asking about a non official release, the answer is most definitely, its just a matter of time, I'm sure all the ROM devs are already off to the races.

The hate is probably because I see 3 separate threads just from today, all asking this same question.
Clearly these folks are:
- ignoring forum rule #1 (search before posting)
- interested in baseless speculation and supposition
Truth is, no one but Samsung can answer if the i9100 is going to get a Samsung release of JellyBean. And yet, people insist on asking this question on an independent developer forum that is in no way affiliated with Samsung.
That said, it's a good bet there will be non-Samsung JellyBean ROMs developed for this device.
But I fully expect the question to be asked a dozen more times, at least.
You forgot - stupid (just like the people who say things like 'This is a legit question, I don't see why everyone hates').

Hey folks,
Do you know if there are any developers working on porting Android L Developers Preview to our G2?
It's just that the Nexus 5 and the LG G2 are very similar on hardware, it seems like it's not that complicated.
Thanks.
Please don't move the thread to Q&A, it's less a question and more a discussion.
you already have a thread(s) with this question and it's been answered just a few days ago...

Found it...
Well, depends on how difficult it is to port it to the G2. If it's difficult and could take a lot of time I agree with you, start developing a ROM would be a waste of time.
But if it's an easy work (as I said earlier, the Nexus 5 and the G2 are similar) then making a ROM that matches the exact one running on the Nexus without any more features, would be very nice and something to play with until the full version comes out. And my guess is that the full L will be close (in the way of how it works) to the preview, so it might help developing later.
I think will be develop L port for our device after will be published official L sources by google

I agree with you. It would be fun to play with. I don't see why it's such a pain to do seeing that the devices are so close in specs.
Giga they are close in specs with chipset and screen but they have lots of differences regarding hardware. Its also hard to port an android version what your phone doesn't have yet and also taking the risk to do it the biggest problems are the kerne i guess. It would be theoritically possible to just flash the android l from the nexus 5 on the g2 and it might boot but its highly risky and things like wifi etc probably don't work and it could cause screen problems like the stripes issue since we don't know yet what it causes to get like that.

Sony said that lollipop will come in February but now it's March and lollipop didn't came out.
And which customizations will get it first?
Nobody knows when it will be released, be patient. And nobody knows what customisation versions it will hit first.
Sony will announce it soon, I'm expecting them to announce a release date at some point during MWC.
To be honest the only confirmed date I've read is Q1. But I'd rather wait and get a good build, I've had Samsung devices earlier and they took 3 or 4 extra updates to be good
In Q1 somewhere so in the first 90 days of the new year, have patients !
It bothers me alot of we get threads like this or ask in excisting threads about LP when we get it -__-
Patients is the keyword to wait patiently !!
