***OFFICIAL Jelly Bean General Discussion Thread*** - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989

Mod Edit - This is the Official Jelly Bean discussion thread. All others will be closed.
I am making this thread for the general discussion/speculation of 4.1 Jelly Bean for our device, whether it be official or a WIP custom Rom. Just a thread for some general Q&A or peoples' thoughts on how to get Jelly Bean on our device or maybe news of when, if ever, it will be officially on our device. Just hoping that this will stop people making whole threads for one question and keep all of the news for Jelly Bean for our device in one simple thread.
There is already an SDK system dump for Jelly Bean if devs wanna go check it out here:

Yeah I really do hope T-mobile doesn't let this device fall behind firmware wise because the GSIII is out now. I mean even the Nexus S is getting an OTA of Jelly Bean and it came out 2 years ago.. haha

We all want it but deep down we know that ICS is as far is it'll go.

i have had absolutely no problems with ICS on my t989. I actually think it works better. I use the siriusxm app a ton everyday and on GB my t989 would lose data and the stream would stop. Since updating to ICS that has not happened once. Sorry but i feel like your opinion here is wrong.

Cm9 GitHub

Guys I found this on one of the Cyanogenmod member's GitHub. He is adding lot of comments to his GithHub about Samsung Skyrocket. Check the link below, if anyone could make more sense of this then please explain. ( It looks like Alpha cm9 but I could be wrong )

Lol, no, the T989 is my primary phone, but I still have my HTC G2 as well, and that has "unofficial" CM9 running on it. Would be great to have it on this phone, as it's really difficult switching back to such a small screen when I want to enjoy some MIUI, AOKP, CM9, AOSP ICS, etc...
But I still love that little phone with a physical keyboard, dammit
EDIT: Just thought about calling the G2 little. I remember when I thought it was the perfect phone size. Now, I can't imagine ever going back to that size screen for primary every day use, lol!

How easily people forget what this site is all about. Jellybean source is out there and is being poked and prodded by the REAL developers of Android. Forget "official" releases. As long as TouchWiz is part of a Samsung release it's just not worth having nor waiting for.

Duh. I forgot about that. I have my phone rooted too. I just don't remember what version i rooted. It was a video that someone posted on another forum. Worked great. But still looked like my telus phone. Battery life went way up. But then I installed go launcher and locker to get jb look, and my battery life went back to normal. I'm hoping a real jb from will get my good battery life back.

AT&T leaked several ICS builds to the Galaxy SII Skyrocket community before finally rolling it out.
I'd be surprised to see it rolled out officially before doing something similar with the GSIII.

No you don't. You lose Wifi calling by using a non-TWiz ROM like AOSP/AOKP variants. Rooting does nothing but give you the access to change things. It doesn't cause battery drain or loss of functionality or increase your stamina. Those are all User issues that Root will give you.
