I'm sure I'm not the first to see this but when you click the Android Version in About Phone a bunch of times real fast it brings up a simple jelly bean and version...
Long press screen and it brings up a stupid yet cute little game, thing. You bat the jelly beans around
Just an FYI or maybe this is really old news, sorry!

First time Android?
Yes, this has been around since about a year ago, when Jelly Bean 4.1 came out.
Also, same thing with Ice Cream 4.0. Except it was... ice creams, not jelly beans.
sadly no. I just never dug around much. Can I just delete this thread?
Great! Does that mean in the next version we can throw key lime pies into virtual faces, or at least bat em around?
Yeah I used to play around with this on my G-1 with Gingerbread, it probably had been there before even then. Pretty much just an Easter Egg from Google. Still entertaining though.

Great news! We can only hope our neglected E4GT gets some ICS love soon too.
EDIT: Apparently it's been said this is just an ICS launcher...
Still some pretty cool mods though hey! I wouldn't mind the fast switch program he had. Its the same one I got on my galaxy tab 10.1 ICS will get here eventually amd when it does I hope it changes the android expereince with lots of eye candy and fun features. Hope it really takes advantage of our 1gig ram and fast internal storage and is coded specificly for duel core cpu's. How sweet would thay be !
Our phone is neglected? It's been out for a month. Hardly time to consider it neglected.

I think they are talking in general the SGS2 has been out for a few months now it's just new for the US market.
there is a ICS launcher that looks just like that and the status bar is wrong i think its the launcher with a themed bar
I could not careless about the ICS Sprint would push to us. I want the ICS that the devs bring us.

No, I mean our phone!
Figgen AT&T version already has Cyanogen mod!
I can only hope that ICS performs as well as the video shows.
Definitely a cool mod though!
When ICS does come out, will this end up for sure on our E4GT?

Just enjoy your phone. With the heavily customized interface, don't expect ics until summer 2012. It is what you signed up for.

Google WANTS Ice Cream Sandwich
It was my understanding that Google wants as many devices as possible to be upgraded to Ice Cream Sandwich as soon as possible to push developers in to moving their current applications to this platform and that Google basically wants previous versions including Honey Comb to go the way of the Dodo or the Dinosaur. So this could mean that we would see an upgrade fairly quickly for our devices so as to reduce fragmentation.

You are setting yourself up for disappointment. The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over expecting a different result. ICS updates will start going out in middle 2012.

Yes, sadly the CDMA and WiMax radios add a few hurdles.
Someone posted this on engadget as an idication that the epic touch 4g would get ICS. Frankly I'm not sure how they determined that from the link.

All that tells us it they're working on an update (which we already knew, since they have known bugs they're trying to resolve), and it's full of placeholder text. The only version is mentions is 2.3.3, and we're on 2.3.4. So clearly not an indication of any actually useful information.

Thanks - I couldn't figure out why they thought that link had anything to do with ICS.
Of course if they really wanted a shock and awe campaign tomorrow, just imagine if the top 10 Android devices all got an update to ICS tomorrow
I would rather have to wait a bit for good ROMs than have everything the first week so we don't have to listen to the "Where's the Jelly Bean update " talk. My phone is perfect and will only get better. Its not like every CM7 nightly is perfect. It takes a lot of nightlies to get a stable release. I have been flashing all of the Nexus releases....last nights was great though...patience people

I added it to my cart in google play to see what would happen and the below image popped up. You can see it vaguely but the search bar widget is changed and the wallpaper is not on the current nexus.
Awesome. Maybe if you buy the phone you will get jelly bean before the update is gets released to everybody?
This made me dance. =D
But I hope this wasn't a mistake. You should send it to android central or something. They'll grab it.
Maybe it's just a typo in the product database?
I sent it to android central already

Jelly bean is near hopefully
I am...shocked.
Even if it is an accident (I am sure it was), someone knows something
Maybe we will get it far sooner than I expected. Of course, that does lend to the idea that JB is just an incremental update and not an overhaul like some were thinking.
It also makes me sad to be on Verizon, because I know I will have to find myself a leak for proprietaries

I have no doubt. However, someone typoed not only the version number, but the name. Which leads me to think that it is either a cruel joke, or its release is close.

with a good idea of how jelly bean is going to look, i actually downloaded the wall papers from the market... they look GREAT on this phone. a jelly bean theme might actually really give the ui a clean look. just a thought. =) hope someones listening.

I thought the UI looks the same as ICS? Besides the new features..It's only Android 4.1
theres some differences. but realistically, we will get CM9 very soon... and im sure cm9.1 is on its way too.... soo its just a matter of time... for now i guess we can settle for wall paper

Don't hold your breath on cm9.1 that's going to be a while before they decide on that. Look how long it took them to do cm7.2.
I'm willing to bet, around winter we might hear rumors of JB cm, but this is only off what I've seen with cyanogenmod. Oh an don't expect carrier updates till this time next year.
the statusbar has been revamped as well as different animations. otherwise it's got pretty much the same UI colors, etc.
Its just 4.1 Looks the same just added small stuff thats it... i seen it already on my friend GNex
The biggest change on Jelly Bean though is Project Butter.
Anyone else a little upset by this "unfair" model?
If you buy a Nexus today it comes with Jelly Bean.
If you've bought the Nexus from the Play Store, even a week ago, you won't get it for about two more weeks.
I understand it's only a two week wait, but if the update is available and shipping (and you gave it to attendees at Google IO) why not make it available for everyone especially on the official "Google Phone?"
Anyone else a bit confused by this?
not really, root, install jb, be happy - is what most others have chosen instead of their rants

I think the only ones being updated to JB, OTA anyways, is the ones handed out at the conference. The product page for the Nexus still says - "Ships with Android 4.0". And the current build they are receiving is only a "Preview" build, probably not stable enough for public consumption.
The people getting JB now are getting a test build that isn't fully completed and is only for people who went to the I/O conference. Go buy a ticket next year and enjoy the goodies, otherwise wait for 2 freaking weeks.
in a but confused, where does it state if I buy a phone today when it gets her in two days that it will have jb on it?

What's the point in having Jelly Bean so fast anyway? Other than the hype.
I flashed the Jelly Bean ROM.... used it for 30 minutes and then went back to CM9 for features.
Not to mention there are A LOT OF APPS with no support for Jelly Bean. Meaning app functionality will not work and force close.
There is absolutely no reasoning for be rushing for this. The OTA link was a leak anyways, it was never fully released by Google.

It's a stock ROM, people don't flash it for the features, first off.
Second, what apps were you having issues with, so far only TiBu and Apex are the only ones not working for me.
Third, the reason for rushing is so that everyone can go to their favorite hang out spot and brag to all their friends that they have JB.
It was a leak, but the leak allows us full access to something that has not been officially released which always makes us nerds scream like school girls.

That's the awesome thing about owning a nexus, they're easy to update.
Thread closed.
So I got my LGOG about a week ago, what do you guys think, is it worth it to root it yet? Or should I wait for some AOSP Roms and the Root/Recovery process to stabilize?
I rooted the day it came out. Unlocked as soon as it became available. Lovin it ever since. I've had no issues whatsoever. TWRP works great. As far as stabilized, I think its as good as it'll get for a while. The Dev's will need some time to work on this new phone.
From a different perspective, I'm waiting to see the official Jelly Bean update from LG, as this will likely break the current root process. I just really like the stock ROM. There are some improvements I'd love to see someone make, of course, like changing the color scheme and other UI tweaks. But, for the most part, I'm happy with stock while I wait for Jelly Bean.

Call me really cautious I've held off getting the LGOG watching for Jelly Bean or an AOSP rom. IF HOWEVER I had scored one of those black Friday bargain prices on the phone I'd have jumped on it, rooted and unlocked it straight away knowing this works with the current phone software version. You can always go back to stock if LG Jelly Bean becomes available before the community comes up with something you like. My two cents.

Once I get the OG and the Jelly Bean update rolls out I just plan to root once one's available. I'l wait a few months before installing a ROM, by that time the major bugs should be worked out. I can't wait to see AOSP and CM on it!
