Galaxy S3 (I9300-UK) w/ CM10 JB vs Galaxy nexus.

Hey guys,
First post here
Literally just flashed my S3 the other day to cm10 jelly bean ressurection remix the other day, and although its fast and what I'm after, it just doesn't feel as stable or, ERM how to put it...'authentic' as stock jelly bean on the nexus.
My dilemma is, I'm actually thinking of selling my S3 for galaxy nexus.
Opinions?

I'm not sure what you mean by "authentic"...?
The S3 still has way better specs, and pair it with AOSP and its far better than a Galaxy Nexus

Huge N00B question here,
What's 'AOSP'?

Yup, basically all Nexii are AOSP and the only reason the S 3 is really "worse" is because of touchwiz and slower update (of course tw is a preference thing).
But all CM roms are AOSP so you pretty much have the nexus thing going on your S3

[Q] Android 4.2 Port?

Does anyone know about progress on Android 4.2 Jelly Bean ports for our beloved Nexus S? Will it be possible? I read earlier today that Google is not supporting the Nexus S anymore, so does that mean that the ROMs will be slightly buggier (lacking camera functionality, etc.)?
I'm honestly getting slightly jealous about looking at the Galaxy Nexus forum and all of the new ROMs being produced...

GAPPS is needed before any sort of porting starts.. The gapps package needed to run 4.2 is a far departure from 4.1.2. So.. It's a waiting game for a 4.2 GAPPs package.
For me at least..

Give it some time it just came out.

4.1.2 is the last official update for Nexus S, to have 4.2 also on nexus s I use cyanogenmod 10.1 (at the moment it is not stable yet). I like this because you have last android version and a good support from developers.

I prefer 4.1.2. More polished than 4.2 on the Nexus S.

i prefer 4.1.2 aokp milestone 1, 4.2.1 is just not the same

Thanks for all those reply. Will flash 4.1.2 ROM soon.:thumbup:

Ace 2 doesn't have the community of a nexus device! Mod your NS and you don't need to change it!

Flash a custom ROM and you'll never think of changing it.

There are those rotating things on each side of the plane, i don't know what they are, what they do or wether they are important, but they do not work anymore.
