Develop Bugs

Do you think we will receive the next version of android?

Whether it will be vers. 4.3 or 5.0, do you think GSM galaxy nexus will get it?
Personally I think it will. Simply becaus even if Google decides to release the new version of android in combination with a new device, it won't be a new phone. ( Maybe a new nexus 7, but not a new flagship phone )
Nexus S didn't receive android 4.2 not because it's CPU couldn't handle it, but because Google wanted customers to focus on the nexus 4.

I think we will be good for the next 100 years

1) The nexus s didn't receive the update due to storage issues in the sector partitioned for OS. There is workarounds to this but it requires wiping devices and Google just can't do that to the mass public.
2) The galaxy nexus is only 12 months old, Google promises support for 18 months and likely even longer.
3) The galaxy nexus has a faster CPU then the nexus s and a similar GPU but the galaxy nexus has 1gb of space partitioned for OS.
4) Based on the above facts I can say with great certainty that we Galaxy Nexus owners will be receiving the next OS update.

How much space is partitioned for the OS on the galaxy nexus? And on a 8gb nexus 4?

As from what I read on the galaxy nexus it has 1gb for the OS. Nexus 4, I personally don't care about since I won't be getting one and therefore have no clue.

Why?? 4.2 is just 4.1 but with more stuff added.. Any bugs that 4.2.1 has, will be solved with 4.2.2
If you are experiencing lags and slow system, maybe its time for a healthy factory reset

umm dude ? i guess ur not a power user ! cus u can instantly know when ur using the gallery browsing through ur pics ! try to scroll fast as possible when a pic is opened ( even after they;re cached ) the 4.2+ gallery just isnt fast enough and shows u a black pic and takes bout a second to load up ! while the 4.1.2 was flawless ! go as fast as u like it loads up instantly ! this is just one aspect ! there are many more problems faced by others ! specially SOD's,I personally never had them. but others have ! .. oh well m on xylon 15 stable release with purity ak kernel 007 and it makes my device a bit more faster than the stock 4.2.1 but not as how 4.1.2 was ! plus i miss those crazyass realtime video cam face effects !

Nexus S recieved 3 updates. After 1.5 year stopped supporting it. Gnex has received 3 major updates. Its 1 year old and 3 months...
So i believe it is time to say goodbye to Google pure AOSP support and based on developers for the new updates
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium

I'am confident that google would release the next version for GneX, there's non reason to leave it back, while for the NexS was explained why the official development was stopped! I only hope they put more attention in the development stage because 4.2 has a lot of silly bug that a good JUnit coverage could have found before the release (aka december bug, but why not mentioning the camera).

I am sure, we will definitely get the update! GNexus has a good hardware!

hopefully next 3 months, a major revamped ver, instead of something like buggy Android 4.2

Yes I think we will definitely get at least 1 more major release.

As far as I know, the gnex has only received 2 major updates: 4.0.4 to 4.1.1 and 4.1.2 to 4.2. I think that most people would agree that the 4.0.2 - 4.0.4 were minor updates, as were the 4.1.1 to 4.1.2 and the 4.2 to 4.2.1 updates.
As others have said, if be very surprised if the gnex doesn't get at least one more major update.

Unfortunately the next update will likely be small in nature.
Then huge change will come in November with next Nexus phone.

Ubuntu Touch goes BETA

Here : http://ubuntulife.co.za/?p=115
Just wanted to let everybody know ^-^

thx~but still no toro builds....
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium

good news
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus

Is it stable now?

"Update: This beta is not a usable build. Its similar to the Developer Preview i.e full of placeholder information. The only noticeable difference is that it seems to be a lot faster. Overall a very disappointing update for Ubuntu Touch."

Hells yeah, can't wait for voice and data to work.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda app-developers app

Yeah, it'll be so awesome to be on a platform without apps again, like Android in 2009!

Shouldn't have been labeled a Beta if not even the core apps have been finished yet.
From what the article says, this is just a faster running alpha build.
But what can you expect from Ubuntu these days... ever since they tried more & more to emulate Macs, the OS has seriously gone down the drain.

will it open source？

No, it isn't. It's in beta says the first post on this thread.

Without GSM and data connection, we have to say it's still developer preview only

I agree 100%. A beta gives you all the core functionality without the stability and smoothness of the final product. Not software that can only be 'previewed' on the devices that it was intended for

Google working on Android 4.3

http://www.androidpolice.com/2013/0...and-testing-android-4-3-its-still-jelly-bean/
Any thoughts? Google might unveil 4.3 on the I/O this May instead of KLP 5.0. I could be wrong though. Honestly I could care less if it's KLP or 4.3 I'm just hoping that Google fixes what they broke on 4.2.

Anyone's guess here. Maybe a quick update to 4.3 for minor issues, and jump to 5.0 later in the summer. I've seen reports of server logs with Android 5.0.1 on a Google X device, and now this report of 4.3. I think JBQ and his team aren't sleeping much these days.
Sent from my Xoom using xda premium

I'm guessing 4.3 this coming May and later this year it will be the next Nexus + KLP. Anyhow in less than 30 days we'll know

I hope 4.3 will be just an update. An update like bug fixing shouldn't need a special event. Then a Motorola Google phone or Nexus (or maybe it's same) for a Google I/O. KLP should also be there with the new devices.

I honestly think that they are gonna give us support for 4.3 but kill us off on KLP.
But we will still have our great devs! :thumbup:

Personally i would like to have the 4.2 memory errors and leaks fixed,4.2.2 was good but i removed my custom roms and i have tried many,they all had the same errors,lags etc.Now i am on stock 4.1.2 rooted with busybox installed and the louder jelly bean nexus add on for sound.
4.3 ?Honestly i expect bug fixes for Samsung Galaxy nexus.

I'm always anxious for new builds. Any word of Babel being implemented into 4.3?

I think that may be the update to fix bugs and add babel along with security stuff maybe.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 2

hope they won't change coding again. It would take "ages" for custom roms to settle down again

I was hoping that 5.0 would be released at I/O and come to my galaxy nexus just to tide me over until I upgrade from my galaxy nexus. 4.3 will probably be a minor update, sort of like 4.2 was and will probably break more things than fix things on my galaxy nexus.

My galaxy nexus worked perfectly on 4.1.2, battery life was decent as well, but 4.2.2 ruined my nexus, so many bugs, lag and battery suffered as well. The galaxy nexus has its fair share of issues as well and after owning it for 16 months, it is beginning to wear on me. I still love it but its becoming more of a love-hate relationship.

Hmmm...I've been delighted with 4.2.2 on my GNex. Never run smoother or been more stable than now. Other than a minor issue with Bluetooth handoff between vehicles and house phone, it's good.
Sent from my Xoom using xda premium

Mine runs beautifully. Idk if it is actually something since I haven't been back to 4.1 since the ota but it seemed smoother. 4.2 is smooth too but 4.1 just seemed... Different... I like 4.2 too though. I love my nexus and won't upgrade until probably late 2014, no reason to...

That's interesting, 4.2.2 just feels like a rushed release to me, lock screen widgets lag and don't seem very thought out and the Bluetooth issues are annoying as well. Even with fresh stock images flashed, there is still a bit of sluggishness.

Agreed. Personally, I would much rather have a very polished 4.3JB on my "aging" nexus, than jumping to a rough KLP.

Android KitKat Release date

Hello,
I saw on developers forum Android KitKat , I installed it and it was not like on picture of google.
So i am wandering When will be official Android 4.4 ?

Our phone won't get the official update. Google has dropped support for the GNEX
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk

Lol, wait couple months you might get a stable unofficial version of kitkat, gnex is old an outdated now so best upgrading to nexus 5 if you want any chance of software updates from now on.

[email protected]!!!!!! its so sucks
thank you ;'D

Man, it doesn't take much effort to make GNex look exactly like the screenshot from Nexus 5. Flash any of those 4.4 unofficial ROMs out there and a proper gapps, and all that's left is your patience to set it up properly. Aside from the lockscreen transparency, everything looks identical to a Nexus 5, I can say.

Is 4.3 on the G pad?

Sorry if this an obvious question, but I'd really like to know if I'd have to root/unlock it to flash some more recent Android version.
Speaking of which, how difficult is it to flash/unroot?

At least put an effort into researching.

No there are no roms for this tablet at this time.

Lmao post with no answer.. put some effort its just 2-3 keys "no" then "yes" WOOT!
No man not yet. They do have plans to.

It's true that the answer is a simple no. But I had to learn the hard way when I first jumped into this site a few years ago that people do not like to be asked questions that are easy to answer. You don't even have to look on this website. Simply look at the spec sheet on LG's website and you will see that it comes with 4.2 .2. There is already a rootkit out for the device but no roms at this time. I honestly don't think you need a newer version at this time. 4.2 .2 jelly bean does everything you need in my opinion. Otherwise get a Nexus device. I have a Nexus 4 running Kit Kat Paranoid Android and Franco kernel and I couldn't be happier. But when it comes to my tablet I just wanted for basic consumption and a stock Android is perfectly fine. Just my opinion.

What is it that you are going to gain from updating to 4.3? The bigger number? There is a lot more that can be improved in the ROM than going to 4.3
