JB was leaked, see Frosty Jelly Bean post under Android Development.
As for battery drain... The difference between stock and JB (as it pertains to battery) has not been significant enough either way for me to notice, however, there are certain things you may look in to that will help your battery life regardless of your OS.

It should come out in October or November at the latest.
As for battery drain, who knows. It's not out yet.

All the Jellybean ROMs that are out are based on LEAKS.
There is no way any of us can guarantee or say that the OFFICIAL JB update will have great battery life or poor battery life.
We have to wait it out and test it for ourselves.
And please, please, please.. all these JB threads are getting tiring.
Search, search, search.

i appreciate your answer but i dont understand something here. with all due respect, why would you get upset if someone makes a thread about JB? if it bothers you that much why cant you just skip over them?

I'm not upset, and I don't mind people asking questions.
I understand sometimes we search and can't find the answer.
But I'd rather all JB questions be in one thread or something rather than scattered about. I'm sorry if it seemed as it was intended only for you.
A lot of questions popping up have been answered before, and most of the time people can't find the answers because the first few posts are people trolling.
So, maybe a general JB thread would help, I know there's a OTA Leak thread, but I don't know.
I apologize. I don't mind answering what I know.

DO NOT apologize to this troll he makes multiple threads on the same topic, he needs to be banned.

I for one expect three things:
0/ Jelly Bean to have less battery life than ICS under heavy touch load.
1/ Our phones battery life to always be too short.
2/ People will argue about the battery life.
1 and 2 are dependable at least

OP please do a little research before making threads. No one knows what an os will do until itmis on your phone. Also no one knows when it will be released for our phone until an announcement is made.
Google is your friend
Rule #1 Search before you post
Thank you for your cooperation

Look, here it is. I know I'm not supposed to hold your hand, but obviously you need it. I suggest you may want to stick to the "General" forum section. Easy-to-find forum post.
Lovely people on this forum. was just asking for help. No reason to act this way. I did look and looked for awhile. Im sorry i didnt see it but you dont have to make people feel like crap. Its just stupid

Dude, no need to be a jerk... Anyone, if that download stops working, you can download it here: http://www.google.com/buzz/superlinkx/PiHU4FDrj6n/For-those-interested-I-have-included-the-final
Be warned that this update will not flash over the leaked beta update. It will ONLY flash over 1.47, so be warned. It won't brick your phone, but you will waste about 10 minutes of your life just to see it fail. HTC said they plan to have a solution for those who flashed early within the coming days.

LOL see!!!
Just an idea here... You might avoid the so-called "jerks" by posting your Question in the Questions and Answers Forum.
Let's use a little deductive reasoning here. Why post in this forum? Don't give me some BS answer, saying something like "it relates to development," because that's a lie and you know it. Truth be told without beating around the bush... The Development Forum is more populated, and you think that because you're posting here, it's more likely to get answered quicker.
Sure, it's more populated, but there-in lies the problem. Because it's the most popular forum, these so-called "jerks" are ALSO more populated here. So your probability of having a so-called "jerk" reply is far greater. You're also going to get a more rash response simply because of posting in the wrong forum and giving a reason to these so-called "jerks" to flame you.
Not only that, but those that would normally offer the help, are then turned away from offering the help because of your posting in the wrong forum. So you're not only attracting the unwanted crowd, but you're turning away the ones that would help you.
Developers are in the development forum for that exact reason... development. You people think they don't visit the Q&A Forum at all. This is untrue. Besides that, this is a community. There are those that aren't skilled enough to be a dev but skilled enough to offer the help and point you in the right direction, and not all of them, but most of those people visit the Q&A Forum regularly.

Amen.
I regularly go to the Q&A forum to give back what i can. I can also tell you that the above is correct. the people flamed the most are those posting in the wrong forum. If you search and let them know you try people a re alot more forgiving int he Q&A forum then they are in development. Think of development as your library and Q&A as the class room.
If you are unsure if it should be in development it probably shouldnt be. If it doesnt pertain specifically to a rom and isnt asked in that Roms thread until you get to a level where you can better determine where it goes ... ask in in Q&A. Best advice i can give to people with questions.

You're right. I should have been less mean. It's just that... when people come to development with questions seeking answers, it just doesn't seem right. I'd like to apologize. And I'm not gonna go back and edit it to make it better. I'm going to straight-up apologize.
I'm sorry for talking down.

Touch sensitivity problem is still on stock JB? Any solution?

I have converted from yakjujp to yakju and received the 4.1.1 OTA update. Now, I'm on 4.1.1 rooted yakju.
The same problem many -including myself on both yakjujp and yakju- experienced with touch sensitivity on 4.0.4 where the screen stops being responsive and regained after pressing the home button and releasing after a few seconds. Is there any solution or workaround? Thanks in advance!
Perhaps you should read the other threads we posted on this issue, we have tons of talk about it. Still no solution.
Hold on let me create another thread with the solution on this subject. After all, xda is just a giant dumping ground for mindless f***s who can't search.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda app-developers app
i havent had that problem since 4.0.4.
I still wonder why someone who does not like a topic or a question but still leaves a comment? It's easy, you don't like it just ignore it and don't waste your precious time on reading such mindless topics, except some life impotence must have its effect on people on every possible aspect of life. So I feel sorry for you!

No its not that. When an issue has already been discussed in depth with all the good answers and relevant info, you're never gonna get all those good answers in a new thread. People just won't post their answers again so you miss all the good stuff by starting a new thread. Its for your own benefit to get the most answers possible. People aren't gonna post their details again, so you're missing out. Use the existing thread and you get the complete picture on your desired topic.
In before the lock!

There is your way of explaining it, and there is another one that's offensive and for no reason. Thanks anyway!

Which ROM I have to choose?

Hi guys! I deliver this phone yesterday.
It uses stock 2.3.5 and I want to upgrade a newer version.
I see many roms but really do not know which to use with.
As for my expectations from rom. I need as everybody stability, performance and good battery life.
I need your opinions.
From now thanx for your advices.
If you bothered to read any stickied thread in this forum you'd have an answer for this.. It amazes me how not one person reads forum rules or stickies before asking the same question daily...

Reading stickies/forum rules aside; if you're gonna ask a question that's been asked a hundred times before, why not, at the very least, revive one of the multiple dozens of threads where that question has been asked already instead of creating more useless clutter in an already irreparably cluttered board?
Hey, at least he's not asking how to root, or what's with the error after flashing CWM over official ICS
Lol. Yeah that's true.. Its funny if you go back to the sub forum there's (estimate without actually checking) probably about 5 asking what's the best ROM, or how do I root.. Meanwhile there's like 2 or 3 stickies explaining it... In the same exact page!
Um all for forum activity, and a live forum is definitely better than a dead one but come on people seriously.. I'm not trying to be a jerk and sorry if it comes off that way but I've only been a registered member for not even a year and it does get frustrating. Just try to read some posts before making a dumb one.. If you have a question its pretty much guaranteed its been answered.
The forum rules, which are actually a global announcement if I'm not mistaken; clearly state that if you're too lazy to experiment with the ROMs and find out for yourself which one is best then this isn't the right place for you.. And I wholeheartedly agree. I've only had the p930 since last November or so and I've been testing ROMs since day one and I've never once had to ask how to root or which ROM to use... That's the whole fun/enjoyment of android dev IMO.
There's my two cents. If you honestly still can't find an answer then there's probably no hope. Get a friend to mod your phone.. Lol

I asked a simple question, and need an opinion. Absolutely I had searched the forum,
there are so many different q/a posts. I have just confused.
Yes. I don't ask how to root or flash. I'm not new on android.
Maybe I know more than you think.
I this is the way you help other peoples who need help.
This is your satisfactionary.
If you don't want to help, just don't type anything. Let it be blank,
So may the others can share their opinions.
And I didn't post for you to chat here. You can send eachother pm (acording your thoughts) about people who want an opinion.
Btw. I don't need your opinion.

Look, I'm glad to have you as a part of the community; there is not one single person who shouldn't be a part of what we have here. All I'm saying is that, instead of posting a new thread to ask a question that has been thoroughly covered in multiple other threads; why not, at the very least, revive an old thread for this purpose instead of adding more clutter to an already cluttered board? It's posts like this which are the reason that there are "already so many different q/a posts."
I never said or implied that you were new to Android, and I never once said or implied that you were ignorant when it comes to Android devices. Believe me, I'm far from knowing anywhere near what I would like to know; but I guarantee you that almost every single question that has been, and will be asked on this board has already been covered multiple times; including "which rom is best". The development section has discussions covering the bugs and gremlins for every ROM released for this device via XDA. No real need to read every single page of each threads, just skim the last few pages and you'll get an idea of where the ROMs stand in their current form.
With that being said, I DO apologize for being a complete jackass and for the tone which I put across; but the sentiment remains.
Also, I have put forth an answer buried in my reply here; although it is a little verbose and requires you to do a little more leg-work to form your own opinion... which is what counts the most.
The answers you seek are on the very page you posted this in...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2206596
^ There you go.
If you want the latest Android experience (4.22), the best all around bet is probably the unofficial PAC-ROM + Wind kernel 1.7 or 1.8. Bluetooth works pretty well, I think the only bugs are the other common CM10.1 ones- 1080p recording crashes, hitting the power button while in the camera app crashes. If you don't care about bluetooth and just want speed and battery, check out JellyBAM- it is slightly less stable than PAC but it flies.
If you are ok with ICS (4.0X) then HO!NO!'s CM9, Liquid Nitro or HO!NO!'s V20f are solid.
But in the future, search around and do a lot of research before posting a question- on most forums it annoys the members to be answering the same questions repeatedly
OP no, just try for yourself....

[Q] Best rom for long battery life?

Hey All,
I've got a question.
I need a good clean rom, with long battery life.
Right now I use VJ 4.2, and battery is draining rather quick.
It doesn't really matter which version of android it is, aslong as I can use the phone for atleast a full day (2 or more days would be better though) on a festival with moderate use, reguarly taking photo's, posting them to facebook, and using whatsapp.
Doesn't really have to do anything else.
Any recommendations?
Thanks in advance.
best battery = best ROM = against XDA rules = closed thread

Swearing? the word hell is not swearing imo. sorry if it offended you
I am not asking for a best rom, im for something that would give me a better battery life for a couple of days.
I know each rom is different etc and everyone works hard, but I don't have time to flash 20 roms on my phone and test the battery life on each and every one of those.
So why wouldnt I be allowed to ask a question about it? people have expierences with different roms.
And I've read the forums rules, so those are the rules I use, nothing in there about asking about this.
My join date has nothing to do with this tbh, I only occasionally come here. if they've posted those rules somewhere else and it went to page 23083 or something like that, I can't do anything about that ofcourse.
If there is such a rule, it should be in the rules in the sticky in my opinion.

Well, "best rom" is in the title, so ...
It is covered under Rule 2 in that it is generally perceived as disrespectful to the devs that work for free to share with us. Also, it has been known on frequent occasions to start "spirited discussions" shall we say among supporters of various devs/ROMs. Finally, the experiences others have with various ROMs is generally not directly applicable to your phone as there are small variations in the electronics, your geographical location, cell towers and more that will add up to large overall differences.
Thank you,

CM 11 Timeframe?

If you could give a timeframe of an official CM11 nightly build put out for the Galaxy Nexus (toro), how long do you think we're away from that without it having major bugs (graphic glitches,? Weeks? 1-2 months?
First rule of fight club. Can't tell if troll...
What do you mean about trolling? I haven't seen any toro official builds posted for CM11...
Every CM11 ROM will have glitches Unless there's an updated Kernel that comes with it
You're going to get skinned alive for asking about this, let alone making a thread about it.
Gggg
Lolz
First rule of cm is no ETA's. So no you won't get an answer.

Let's say you are creating a product. People keep asking away in your face when you are going to release it, based on your "estimation". Do you like it?
The first rule in development is NEVER asking ANYONE to put out an ETA. Developers hate them and they are utterly disrespectful.
I asked for a mod to delete the thread. I wasn't aware it was so taboo to ask other users as myself when they thought it would come to light.
I've been flashing since the original Motorola Droid an while I know it's rude to ask the dev directly, I wasn't aware it was so bad to ask people's opinions of when they thought it might be out by their estimation of what CM has done in the past after offiicial Android releases. Knee jerk reaction in my opinion by some people, but it is what it is.
I agree with you. The thing that devs complain about concerning ETAs is, when development threads get cluttered with this sort of posts and when people ask the same question again and again although it was answered already.
I think there is nothing bad about discussing possible dates for a new CM and current problems that prevent them from releasing. Where else if not in the "general" section of a forum is the right place to discuss such things. It is definitely more interesting than another thread where people rant about google or ask whether a 5$ 5000mAh china made battery will increase their devices battery life...

You are not doing anything wrong, forums are for discussion and you are welcome to discuss anything that is on topic, which this is...just some people online are basement dwelling super nerds that take things posted on internet forums as personal attacks

He did nothing wrong, but as someone said "first rule of fight club"
No ETA has been a CM rule for a while. None of us know when, how, or where. I thought it was a troll post myself tbh

I'm not a big fan of ETA topics either but rather than berate another user I just choose not to post in them.
I understand the "first rule" but this isn't the cyanogen forums, it is xda...If fellow users here want to speculate on ETA's I don't see the issue in that.
What are the major bugs right now? Just the graphic glitches and random freezes?
I really appreciate the devs that bring the unofficial builds, and while I don't try them out because I like something really stable, it's really amazing to see such a big dev community still developing for this phone literally two years after releasing tomorrow.
I honestly feel like if a workable 4.4 rom is made for the Galaxy Nexus I'll keep the phone for at least another year because on CM 10.2 it's smooth as hell for me in my daily usage. And while there are bigger and better phones out there obviously, this fits my needs perfectly. Or I should saw wants perfectly.
Lol. I also meant no disrespect. Just honestly couldn't tell if this was real. There have been many posts like this in the past made to create xda havoc. And sadly it usually works.
I don't see much harm it wouldn't hurt to put discussion before the title though. My thoughts about asking for ETA's is like the same as asking does anyone know when a chicken is going to fall out of the sky and rip my heart out. Lol
