When you pull your head out of your ass and use the search button.

A couple of weeks after the announcement at Google I/O so that would make it early june.(Or maybe july given that the nexus 4 is probably first in line now)

Umm try hitting refresh in the system update menu. It should be there. Its amazing btw.

A couple weeks after Google I/O in May. Perhaps Mid-June to Early July. It might be 5.0 or 4.3 but I'm betting on 4.3.

First we have to get 4.3 at Google IO in May and then Android 5.0 will come out to lure all the Holiday shoppers in the Fall.

You may want to check out the video Adam Outler put out some days ago about that exact matter(I can't still post outside links unfortunately, just look for it on the xda youtube channel). But dear lord, don't troll him that hard people

Google brings up 4.3 KeyLimePie not 5.0

The level of maturity here is ridiculous. The guy/gal probably just wants to know if any info has come forward about a release date, they probably don't even know about google i/o, but you guys run off making stupid remarks, would it kill you to just say, no info on it at this time.

Galaxy nexus won't even get official android 5 so don't even bother asking for a release date, whenever the new nexus phone comes out near end of 2013 around october maybe is when android 5 will come out, so you got a few more months to wait yet even if you get the new nexus.

Its official! Galaxy Nexus is coming to Sprint & LTE!

It has a faster CPU than its version counterpart.
And its sprint's first lte phone!
This is my next phone.
For two simple reasons.
1: never worry about finding/losing rooting exploits, same with boot loaders.
2: fast updates. I'm not talking about ota's. I'm talking about source release, because when ICS drops on a HTC or Samsung. You can't have custom kernels, which takes a large part out of the experience. Unless the source is dropped along with drivers.
What do yo guys think?
Are you going to jump ship and get this year's annual Nexus or wait... HTC's been awfully quiet recently. Wonder what their planning

I'm super hype I almost spent my Christmas money. I'm putting it away. Hopefully it drops soon. My city isn't in the 1st wave of LTE cities. But I live in Las Vegas so we should get it soon after. Since this is LTE it should be bigger like other Verizon version I assume

Exynos.
I'll be holding off on this one.
I'm sure it'd be the same processor, just set at default clock speed rather than underclocked.
I hope this is true cuz I'm getting this phone there's only one phone that I would want over this & its the galaxy s3 which is going to be a monster quad core with 2 gb of ram if Samsung could only have a way to disable TW & give the options of vanilla ics or TW it would be the greatest phone ever it would practically be a galaxy nexus & galaxy s3 all in one device!! But that would never happen!

I was all about this phone a month and a half ago but now I am not so sure. I already have 2 Android phones and have considered adding an iphone to the collection especially considering my new vehicle is much more compatible with iOS than Android
We'll see i suppose.
Patiently gonna wait for this

I look forward to getting this for free at the Google I/O Conference...
Unless you live in one of the four lte cities I'd wait for the next phone. The phones hardware is nice buy there will be better VERY shortly after and since lte won't matter I'd give it a few months to drop in price honestly.

Why are you holding off? There is only one nexus a year. And wasn't the nexus one the best phone when it came out? The only thing that touched it closely was the evo. And our nexus s, nothing touched it expect for the gsii (over a year)
Nexuses simply run the smoothest because the most current version of android is made for them.
Gs3 won't come out until 2013
Gs2 is out because no lte.
So for me its the Nexus vs iPhone (isn't it always?)
And I wouldn't expect another iPhone for at least 8 months

I cant see why people would wait. We get stuck up in numbers so much we lose sight of a phone working. People cry about no up dates. Here is the chance to have the most up to date and the simplest path to roms.

Jelly Bean for CDMA Galaxy Nexus

We all know by now that the GSM Galaxy Nexus has gotten its delicious Jelly Bean update. But what about us that bought a CDMA variant. I got the feeling that we will be getting it around the same time the GSM devices get Key Lime Pie. Correct me I'm wrong and I hope someone has some good news.

Well the 4.0.4 update was small and took what like 2 months to release? 4.1 is a lot bigger update. It pains me to think about an official verizon release time frame.
Well I'm on Sprint and past experiences have shown they push updates pretty quickly. But isn't google in charge of pushing updates to the nexus devices?

No, Sprint and Verizon have to test and approve them before they push them. Google doesn't do it.
Isn't the Verizon version on the developers Site now. They say it's still experimental but at least Google is doing something.

Not really. True that it may be announced, but not released.
Even when the Galaxy Nexus was announced, it wasn't available for some time after.
Yea but at least we will find out what we are really getting and Project Road Runner for 4.2 sounds amazing for battery savings.

At the most they may open up pre-orders that day. But I think it is more likely they will announce a pre-order and release date during the event.

Hopefully its to announce an HTC Nexus to go with the LG.
I really hope for a new nexus device at this event but
I feel like there isn't going to be one because
the invitation says "The playground is open"
I think this will most likely be all about update to maybe 4.2 and stuff related to the play store.
More software and little to no hardware.
I know there are lots of leaks of new nexus devices but
this is just my personal opinion.
Anyways, can't wait for this event to happen!
Just announce the already well known Nexus 4 and then a Nexus 5.
and kill off all these rumors already.

They have to announce a new phone by the end of the year and they aren't going to have another event to announce the phone.
I'm so glad all these iPhone threads are over and were only discussing nexus stuff
Anyways I hope all these rumors about the 2GB of RAM are true also 4.2 with new notification toggles and whatever else is a win

That's probably due to Verizon having their hands on the exclusivity. That's what I think. This nexus will hopefully release sooner.

Quad cores don't need any maturing. The s4 pro uses the same CPU cores as the s4 ( dual core). The big improvement is on the GPU side. The pro has a next gen gpu while the regular had a aging GPU because the new one was not ready
People get caught up on the dual vs quad all the time. As well clock speeds. Unless you're comparing chips of the same family they are basically useless
I'd rather have an A15 dualcore instead of an A9 quadcore.
Then you would be waiting until sometime in 2013 unfortunately.
Will Google launch several nexus devices?

Android-Building google group.
hopefully it's rolling out to us all within a few weeks (2 or 3)
One advantage of having a big family is that someone needs a new phone you give them ur galaxy nexus and get urself a nexus 4 to replace it....
But 4.2 is gonna be so good on both phones!!! I just wonder obout battery life cause im rolling on the extended bat for the gnex... i hope battery life will be much improved with the nexus 4 with its updated hardware..
I was just thinking same thing. When is the 4.2 release for our nexus gonna come? Lol.
The new nexus 4 looks nice but I don't like the non removable battery idea. Oh well. I'm happy with my galaxy nexus anyway. Very happy.
Just got it about a month and a half ago.

Just like project butter, there was a rumor of a Project Roadrunner to optimize battery life. Personally the only things that I looking for is that and a more unified and polished looking OS in terms of design language, colors used etc.
Android is moving in the right direction. They have the momentum. All they need to do is 'dumb' it down a bit and make it 'prettier'. To have some of that 'android is for geeks only' nonsense banished. Maybe have like a BASIC MODE for new users.
I agree that Samsung should not be the company that knows when the release will be available, i think it is Google as they are the developers of Android, so it gets back to Google then not Samsung as they are just a hardware manufacturing partner (one in many, like LG & Sony)
Dont worry about features, Google will come up with surprises, have patience, and enjoy your phone

It's still to early to talk about this..
We'll probably hear about it at Googo I/O in June, with it launching in July with the Nexus 7 2.0.
So, you can expect it to launch for the Note II around December or January/2014.
The only thing I expect from Samsung is to make a iTunes for Android.
However poor might be apple might be in any terms, no one can deny that iTunes is awesome. You can backup easily, restore easily. If these features get unified into kies, I don't think much would be left to complain except for root in Stock rom

Depends, if Note 3 is already in the works - obviously they will include 4.2.1 first, as there is no 4.3/5.0 available while the manufacturing process is undergoing. One thing is certain though, both Note 2 and Note will get KLP.
