[Q] Android 4.2 - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

I am kinda new to this forums, and I was wondering if the Samsung Galaxy Nexus is getting the new 4.2 update?

Yes it will receive an official 4.2, and then even when it stops getting the updates officially it will continue to get them for years from the devs..

Do you know when?

Nobody knows when exactly, we know the new devices ship with it on the 13th, so it's speculation as to if it will be available on the 13th or (hopefully shortly) after. I would guess the gNex will see 4.2 at least unofficially by the end of November, BUT that is just my guess.

If you're asking about the official stock VZW/Google 4.2, it will probably be late December at the earliest, based upon past experience with this phone and other VZW Androids.
If you're asking about when custom 4.2 ROM's, such as CyanogenMod, CodeNameAndroid, or AKOP, based upon the 4.1 code release, a nightly based on 4.2 should be available in a day or two after the code is released into gerrit, so probably around 15 or 16 November.

The Galaxy Nexus is going to receive updates for a long time...
Dual core with 1GB RAM is more than enough to receive good updates, even if not from Google, but from devs

I remember when 512mb of ram and a 1Ghz processor was plenty.

We will all(XDA PPL) have it when the LG Nexus 4 is released. For sure someone(Dev) will post up the software and it will be ported and ready for use.
So we will get it(unofficially) on the 13th for sure.

Android 4.2 was tested also on the Gnex so I'm pretty sure that it will receive the update.

Android 4.0.5

Hi guys !
I just wanted to say that SFR France announced Android 4.0.5 for the Galaxy Nexus, and it should arrive on March according to them. Given the fact that they modify the ROM, the official build may arrive sooner !
Picture/Link/Proof or didn't happen.
http://android.sfr.fr/maj-optimisez-votre-mobile-android-mettez-le-a-jour-previsions-7
Course, I'd rather see 4.0.4 for GSM at the moment
Such a table can everyone create. I dont trust such news without evidence.
4.0.4 and 4.0.3 aren't official released yet and you're debating about 4.0.5.
I heard it makes the battery last for a week on 1 charge.
This website is official.(sfr)
Sfr is a French mobile provider and they always provide "such a table" about future firmware update.

Oh seems nice. I'm SFR user and will reposte here if I get the ota in Mars. I wonder how they'll modify the room. If it turn out to be worse than custom roms I'll not be surprised.
With all the ics version numbers flying around it's hard to keep track. This 4.0.5 thingy would probably be something similar to 4.0.4 for Verizon LTE update but exclusive for SFR users.

4.0.3 isn't out for perfection reasons I think [sorry my bad again, 4.0.3 isn't meant for GNex apparently] and 4.0.4 is exclusive for [scratch that] LTE users, so SFR users getting a 4.0.5 update is not really surprising.

You wont get any evidence before it is actually released. SFR can say whatever they want, and any Android developper can, too.
I'm just sorry I did not post a link first.
No x.x.x version is exclusively for a specific carrier.

OK my bad. Not exclusive for Verizon but probably for LTE version.
Fact is I don't know any of this for sure
So, Google is going to fragment the Galaxy Nexus line?
Heh.

Depending on what changed it may be an incremental update to address LTE /CDMA issues. If this is the case it would not be pushed to GSM handsets. This was done with the Nexus S / Nexus S 4G. It has nothing to do with exclusivity but does lead to devices running different minor versions.
When appropriate an OTA will be pushed for GSM devices as well, it may be 4.0.4 or a later minor release such as 4.0.5.

Is the 4.0.4 build for Verizon? I just did check for update on an unlocked unrooted phone, it said it was up to date on 4.0.2.

It certainly is.
Same as 2.3.x versions in the past. 4.0.4 is not officially out. One user got it, we helped pull it. Thats not enough to draw such conclusions from. LTE issues will be resolved in ril and radios. That can be shipped with any build.
Don't forget LTE telephony code is now native to Android as of ICS. There is no reason for fragmentation.

Oh goodie. This is indeed good news. Just needs some time and we will have this baby in no time...
Having SDK released, how much time should pass until an alpha build of Jellybean hits the threads? As the way stands now, you can make a rom using that first SDK release or we need to wait until updates will roll out [sdk updates]?

This is incorrect for two reasons.
1. It is not an OTA update, that will not arrive until sometime July. It is a preview build that was leaked and can be installed on any GNex.
2. Just because a GNex build was released, does not mean the source is available.
This makes me super excited. Just watch this youtube clip:

By previous device's history, yes. Official updates that is, i think we'll see 2 more major versions officially supporting maguro/toro/toroplus.
Unofficially, we'll have aosp roms for indefinite time. I have no doubts about this.

i dont see how it wouldn't considering its only a point update to JB and not a major change ( i would assume since its not KLP or whatever they will call it). I would say its pretty safe bet to get 4.3.

There can be no "helpful" answer for this question, well unless you work for google and can confirm that 4.3 will be released for the gnex.. Like you said in your post you "think" and since google hasnt said anything we can only think/guess and listen to rumours
anyway to answer the question i have a hunch that we will get the 4.3 update and that this will be the last official update

Ah I agree entirely, I'm just curious over those pictures of JB 4.3 that were reported a possible fake. That and I'm hoping they release KLP (if that's the name) for the GNEX, even if its like the polished Motorola JB that pretty much remains ICS with minor visual tweaks (at least from what I could tell with the XT910)
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus
I would think 99% a yes! Since the Nexus S officially received up to 4.1.1 Jellybean, I believe the Galaxy Nexus would be "future proof" enough to receive an update of Android at least within the 4.X range
Sure there will be 4.3 and I'm sure there will be KLP the 5.x.x
As seen some weeks before, the Gnex, i9250 appeared on the Bluetooth re-certification for Android KLP and was accepted... possible huge change in the way the BT is operating... so logic conclusion is that we will have KLP too on our gnex

so as far samsung is concerned it will take atleast 3 months from now if we are lucky or maybe even end of this year but yes the good news is that samsung has confirmed the 4.3 update for note2 but have not commented anything on the release date yet

Because Nexus devices are devices that are made by Google's standards and android is developed for this devices by Google themselves. Then with the android source code (AOSP) manufacturers such as Samsung, HTC, Sony etc etc. are free to make their own rom for it, this is why it will always follow later, especially 'cause they have to make sure it is completely bugfree. Next to the big manufacturers we have ofcourse developers like CyanogenMod team and other good developers (i.e. from XDA!) who provide us from great roms too, and some even better than the stock samsung roms.

Will people stop talking about the s4 sales. They just posted they made over 6.6 billion which is up from last year.
So they didn't sell as many as they wanted. Well the s3 is still an awesome phone so why would everyone just to an s4

Samsung is directly monitoring the Note II General forums, and they delay in a couple of weeks the launch every time someone starts a topic about it.

"Crap" is relative. One could call CM10.x crap for the Note 2, as it doesn't have the S-Pen features, leaving the device rather crippled compared to TW.

No, TW compared to CM actually is crap. CM S Pen Add-on, Note Buddy and Papyrus and S Pen features (incl. Pulling in or out detection) work perfectly.
definitely by the time samsung releases official 4.3 there will be 4 to 5 more threads on the same topic for sure
By the time Sammy is almost ready to release 4.3, Key Lime Pie 5.0 will be out and they will then decide to skip 4.3 for Note II and go directly to 5.0.
I am having issues building cm.
I just know how to initiate a build , I don't know how to fix because I don't know any programming language.
