Dis anybody think we will get 4.2 jb since we were told we would get jb and technically it's still jb?
If your rooted yes for sure.
Like stated above rooted yes from VzW or Samsung I'm not counting on it. I want the sphere photo option though!

Since its still jelly bean probably not very long. Just gotta wait for source to be released
Either way I'm pretty excited. Since I got my s3 I actually enjoy touchwiz (hated it before) and try to stick to tw roms. I would definitely be ok with an AOKP or cm rom for 4.2 though!

I have Galaxy Note N7000, i am little confused whether to update CM9 or Official Android 4.0.3 ICS firmware which is going to release soon. if have any suggestions please let me know.. Thanks
The official firmware will incorporate most of the features of the stock 4.0.3 but CM9 will also have unique features. If you are a mainstream user the choice comes down to the eye candy really. Flash one and then the other when the stable versions are released, play around with each of them for a day or two and then you can make up your mind. =)
I gave up waiting and touch wiz is awful so i went for the cm9 thats out ust now wich needs some bugs and stuff fixed for my s2
Imho Cm9
If you are already rooted, use CM9. If you update officially while rooted, you will lose root. Then you will have to wait for a root solution to be found for ICS. Some phones went months without root after their gingerbread update.
CM9 will be more powerfull i think, if i were u i could choose CM9.
today i saw video of Galaxy Sll Running ICS 4.0.3 XXKP8 which is official Update. But it looks really Boring. Looks like Gingerbread 2.3.6. i hope samsung wont disappoint Note owners releasing such update.

That is the case when manufacturers add their UI. You are still just going to see touchwiz. The difference will be in the menus. Touchwiz will always be touchwiz, just like HTC Sense will always be Sense. Unless you are using a nexus or an AOSP based ROM such as CM9 you won't see many UI changes between gingerbread and ICS. It will look the same on the Note.
CM9, no doubt about that, Trebuchet is a beautiful launcher
Get CM9 and upgrade to official later.
I am sure official probably has better integration of the pen but idk.
I would go with CM9.

What I suggest is you is to try CM9 first. If you find any features you missed in our Galaxy Note that was in the official firmware that cannot be replicated by any means of any application then wait for Official Firmware.
Eg. I can't live without the brilliant video player so I'm sticking with TouchWiz.

I would go with CM9 and stay with it. Still waiting for CM9 to be available for my EVO. I will be so there.

You think the ota will happen in October? I would love that but have little faith in verizon. The nexus still does not have jelly bean.... Which is completely ridiculous.

I was more or less saying that if somebody wanted to try out jelly bean there's the AOSP route and also the Jellywiz rom which is basically flawless except for a few minor things. But i understand that waiting for the verizon leak is agonizing, believe me i'm waiting for it to drop as well.
Did some one know that Is the official Jelly Bean update is coming to Asian atrix 2?
As from the China leak version Motorola is developing the jb romantic for atrix 2. Will it loch ota update soon.
Samsung is updating galaxy s 2, and even galaxy ace 2 to jb. Our phone is definitely way better than ace 2.
Is someone have any idea about ota jb update.
Don't think so.
No. See here:

It says:
"This offer is currently available in the United States. We plan to roll out the program to *OTHER COUNTRIES OVER TIME, so stay tuned for more news."
I still think that means no. I haven't seen anything that would indicate otherwise. However, over in the development section there is Paranoid Android, Magic Mod, CM10, and CM10.1. That's not to mention two JB leaks. You should try any/all of those if you haven't already. In my opinion, the devs here will take far better care of you than Motorola will.

I don't believe in motorola anymore. So, we are not getting that promotion in other countries.
Trading the product is costing more for Motorola hence instead of trading it might think to develop jb for other countries cost less.

Even after conforming that atrix 4G is not even updating to ICS. Still ICS rom is under soak testing. Definitely Motorola is rethinking about update their device.
Well, in whatever way I look at it, Motorola has been true to its word (if only after becoming Googlerola)
As per Google Diktat, they have to provide SW updates for 18 months. They leaked and released ICS and JB now. If you talk about Sammy, then, please note that the 'flagship' Galaxy S2 was only just updated to Jellybean (officially), the S Advance shipped with GB on launch when Jellybean, or atleast ICS was the norm.
Also, see the quality of the update provided. I was appalled to see Jelly bean namesake updates on many a handset, with no optimization as such. This 'Leak' Motorola Jellybean is as good as an official version in my books.Install it, and experience the fluid interface is all I suggest.
Even from when motorola is bought by google we are getting updates with stock ui as in nexus and so I think google is providing updates and hope we get official jb ota

And where is this official list? That picture in the posts above is just nothing. The fact that they considering update this doesn't means that we will get it. Even on sammobile.com they say this:
"However, just because Samsung is considering the update doesn’t mean the updates will actually come – the Galaxy S4 mini is one device that is most likely to get the update, but for the other devices on that list, there might not be much hope, if only because Samsung’s heavy and bloated TouchWiz skin might negate the work Google has done on reducing the memory consumption on Android 4.4 KitKat."
So no more updates for ACE2. That's the big bold fact.

To be honest - if KitKat on Ace 2 will ever be released and will be full of bloatware, such as JB, then I prefer unofficial CM releases. At least they're smooth and very fast and they don't kick off the launcher from memory as JB did, when I tried to go back from any app.

additionally Samsung original firmwares are very unwieldy. I don't think so new original firmware fast, reliable and useful. Cause Samsung accomplish the break 4.4 KitKat fast and reliable key points.

Yes but then we have more 4.4 blobs for custom rom and maybe kernel source 3.4.X. I don't believe, but if samsung release kitkat for Ace 2, we have some benefits from it.
I hope one day samsung release stable jb 4.1.2 like old 2.3.
MG2 is good, but it's not stable like GB. (freezes, UI lag, games lags).
i wish someone could make fully working AOKP 4.4 for my Ace II

Even if samsung release any JB update (up to 4.2.x 4.3.x) or even a kitkat after having such messed up 4.1.2 I am not going to use them (well maybe as a base for further flashing). At this momment, custom roms are only option here. Luckilly, we have some skilled rom builders here so we should be fine for now
