I think the early work some of the developers have done here has given us an early preview of what we are in for. It looks great so far, best and smoothest my nexus has been.
I think you'll get a better idea though if you read the threads found in the developers section. When reading a thread titled "jelly bean" I get all excited expecting to find OTA is here and ready to flash. Instead I'm leaving my opinion on an SDK based version of 4.1 I feel like a child who just found out Santa has still not been.

Honestly, I'm not noticing a drastic difference but I've only tried the port so I'll reserve my judgement until a full asop or OTA arrives.

im still on Gnex port with sevice pack4.
what i can say is, that for now im in love with JB...
Those animations, smoothness, speed, new notification[ although i would prefer i u could take a peak with one finger, instead of two, cuz u cant do it with one hand}.
MULTITASKING- first time since ive started using android, i can finally say; ITS WORKING- fast and smooth..
not sold for now on GOOGLE NOW, ive found it not useful for me at all, i would like it much more interacting with other apps.
BTW jelly bean will shine on new phones, our is bit outdated ...

Can we keep all JB releated posts into the one JB related thread here --> Jellybean Countdown to OTA Thread: Nexus S Edition
Thanks.

That's the response I expectected...but thanks for pointing to the 0.1 kernel! The 0.3 kernel (now called rom racers kernel was there) everyone is not a noob just cause they have a valid question...I've had this phone since the week it came out in November, I've rooted devices from a Nook Color to a Super Pad, and all those in-between. I actually exchanged my 4S for a skyrocket..(best thing I ever did) Ive flashed every rom and tweak for this device. I just get sick of idiots trying to make ppl look stupid for asking a valid question on these forums..:beer:

i would have to agree with you. i haven't had the phone for nearly as long as you have but from browsing around xda (specifically gs2 and here) i have to notice that by comparison development is much slower in this section.
disclaimer: this is by far not a complaint, just an observation. i love the development that IS currently taking place and am very appreciative of it.
What about search lol

I think dev work is kinda slow on alot of phones right now. I know it has slowed down on my nexus s because a lot of them are waiting for the new sources of ICS to be released. A lot of the developers are doing great work. I think once ICS rolls out it will take off. IMHO.

this x 1000, and said by a dev lol
I feel pretty good about what we have now. ICS will come eventually, who knows when exactly but it will come. I have two other android phones and a tablet that all run ICS very smoothly. But I still choose this gingerbread runnin beast everyday over all the others. In my humble opinion, there will definitely be some frowning faces on the day ICS is officially released for our device.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using xda premium
Honestly its all just hype. ICS will come out and within 6 months we will be jumping to the next firmware. I think the community should put more focus on fully customizing and enjoying the capabilities of gingerbread. I really don't think we will be satisfied otherwise. That's why devs get turned off to making ROMs. They make something awesome and we use it for a week and then want more. So much greed!

Probably a lot of bug fixes and performance/stability updates. ICS was a massive upgrade. I've given up on a fragmentation fix for a while...however, hopefully Jelly Bean will introduce mojal. Google's voice assistant

I do that a lot, too. It helps keep the trolls at bay.
I really wish Google would stop releasing new versions. They're KILLING us with fragmentation. My company has created a couple of Android apps and released them, but fragmentation is really hurting them.

ICS began to start working fine for our phones, now theres jellybean tomorrow. oh man, hope we can get that too
offline dictation, my wish came true.
It s coming mid July
Sent from my HTC Glacier using xda app-developers app
Hmmm... Offline dictation, or at least a better voice recognition... I really don;t know why I cant make any of my android phones work the voice recognition as my old blackberry curve. I don't really need the system to get me con cert tickets or how is the weather in Japan... just need something fully integrated that can read and take my messages, dial correctly any phone number I ask for and play the music I ask. Is that sooooo dificult to accomplish??? Or is it the fact that I speak in spanish so I need it to work in spanish while the phone is in english.
The new notification system and Google Now are awesome! I really do hope the devs here can get it on our phones. I think the kernel we are using is fine. I don't think jellybean has a whole new kernel. Mid July, and I shall see if the devs can whip something up
Sent from my T-Mobile myTouch 4G
Well, considering our ram is just a bit less than current specs (1gb) i really hope that we can still get this update...:highfive:
Jelly bean WILL have offline voice control. Also I'm guessing we wikl be able to running because based on what I've read, jelly bean is a more polished and stable version of ICS, including numerous performance and stability fixes. Thus if its a more optimized version of ICS, we should be able to run it.

May be Nvidia was waiting for this release in order to let go the drivers.
But i dough it, some how they always want to make more money over it.
My very sincere gratittudes to the Devs for making this Betas on ICS so far so good
even with few scripts it makes it a lot easier to handle the few bugs over the betas
I wish Google would focus on getting ICS on every Android before upgrading the OS again and alienating even more users.
My first Android phone never even got Gingerbread despite what LG said (surprise surprise).

Both of those roms are for 6800 only. I'm using locerras cm9 which is great.

MIUI would be nice. +1
https://github.com/MiCode
You are all free to do it.
Now seriously, if no developer is interested on working with it, no developer will work with it, and it won't be ported to the 7.7. Since MIUI has been closed source (despite being basically a fork of CM for a long time), people tend to dislike it. A lot. If you believe it's worth to port it, be aware that you either need to do it yourself OR try to convince some specific developer to do it.
I wouldn't hold my breath, though. Even the much bigger CM10.x has only a couple of developers on our tabs (three, if you count aorth who uses the very similar Tab 7 Plus and builds for the 7.7 occasionally).

Google Now for ICS?

Hey Infusers,
I was perusing the app section of the general Android forum here and found this project which I think is worth looking into.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1747224
How can we be sure this works on our device without risking a brick? And which ROMs are considered AndroidOpenSourceProject? I'm currently running CM9, am I good?
Thought it would interest some of us still waiting for Jelly Bean to become a little more stable. ^___^

Unless they changed something, it definitely works with our device. There was a post on lifehacker about this like the day after jelly bean was released. I had it on my infuse running ics up til switching to jb. U used to have to change a build prop setting but I think I heard that is what changed with the new package. And there wasn't working voice search at that time.
But as the previous poster said, I would just switch to jb. It has almost same functionality of ics.
