[Q] [PORT] Android Jelly Bean 4.2? - Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Are there any developers currently working on a port for the Jelly Bean 4.2 update? I ask because the Nexus S and Nexus S 4G have been left in the dark as far as receiving an OTA update.
Thanks to anyone with an answer and a glimmer of hope lol.

the official source is out there and a new sdk, but no official update for the nexus s, so it will take some time to port..
.. AND THE F***IN NEXUS $ IS SOLD OUT!!!

Google has just announced that the Nexus S and the Xoom will not get an official update for the new Android 4.2.

Samsung Galaxy s2 will receive Android 4.2?

Hello everyone, as the title, I wanted to know if my Galaxy S2 will receive as an official update Android 4.2.
Thank you all for the answer
Doubt it. Manufacturers usually only give a maximum of 2 years of updates. S2 has already had ICS and will probably stop at Jelly bean.

but 4.2 is JB?
Nope. Android Jelly Bean is 4.1
Android 4.2 will be probably named key lime pie, but there isnt any official info.
SGS2 won't get update to 4.2 if it will be cause Samsung devs considered update to 4.1
I hope Samsung support 4.2 for Galaxy S II, waiting...
I Don't have high hopes either for a 4.2 update, sure i'll be eating these words when they do decide to upgrade the firmware

I am also hunting for a technique for rooting xyboard mz617 devices (I've got 10 of them I want to update to the latest they will support and they are stuck on Android 4.0.4).
Please update if you come across a good set of instructions / tools.

[Q] simple question needing a simple answer.

When android rolls out with 4.3, will users with the galaxy tab 2 10.1 still be supported as far as development with custom ROMs goes? Without making anyone mad here I'm going to ask another way... Will I ever see android 4.3 on a tablet I purchased a little over a month ago? It is keeping me up all night searching for answers and I'm at my ropes end.
Thanks for reading.
P.s I should have sprung the extra hunskie for the note 2 huh?

The custom roms will always be there...if the hardware will allow it we'll get the update here...I've seen many older devices getting jelly bean although they were officialy left on gingerbread or even froyo

Yeah, even the boost zte warp now has a buggy jellybean,and Ly-f1 clones (cheap alwinner tabs) were getting jellybean ROMs very shortly after the source was released, so i agree the prospects look good.

i already have 4.2 based ROMs for my RazrM, and it's still on 4.1.2. If there's an update pushed for the Tab, it will be developed and released in custom ROMs. If the OTA isn't pushed to the Tab, I can almost guarantee there will still be aftermarket ROMs based off 4.3 or 5.0 or whatever comes out next. Truthfully, I don't know why you are losing sleep over this.

Android L on Samsung Infuse 4G

Hi,
I was wondering if anybody could create a port of Android to Samsung Infuse 4G.
Thanks.

Be prepared to wait a while...
All the ROM's for the Infuse right now either are, or based on Cyanogenmod. And their intentions is to wait until the L tree is final:

Sure, it would be nice to have the latest and greatest, but when the latest official is still up in the air, no one will be willing to rewrite code for being the early bird.
Be patient
