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:

Total Ram is about 403 MB...
And available ranges from 50 - 200 MB.....
Matr1x kernel v22...
All in all a pretty quick port of Jelly Bean, unfinished though it may be.
Google claims that it will be available for us Nexus S users mid-July officially. I'm not so sure about that date and I'd sure like to see if a "daily" port of JB is any lighter for our device than ICS. I really like ICS but it feels like our phone is slow no matter what ROM+kernel combo we might use compared to GB. I think that patience is key for this update...:laugh:

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?
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app
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

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

Officially I do not thin 4.2 will be out anytime soon personally I do not like the UI of 4.2 as it is phone oriented and not tablet
For the new users I would suggest wait for the CM stable release to come out before you install it Nightly will have issues
You will likely never see official stable for this device or any other exynos4 device due to lack of cooperation from Samsung.
It's perfectly usable for 90%+ of people, but some of the issues with it are major for some... Like if you need HDMI output, you won't be seeing it any time soon, same for Samsung's wired keyboard since all of the developers have Bluetooth keyboards.

Does S-Note features work? S-Pen and all...
I hope the rumors from sam mobile about getting 4.2 or even 5.0 are true. After all... It is a very powerful device and it deserves some goodness. ... And so do we! :thumbup:
I'd prefer an official update...because of tw framework. I like cm a lot, i would flash it any time. but it is not so functional on this baby.
maybe soon?
The Galaxy tab 2 and the note 8 got 4.2.2 this week so who we could be soon perhaps. Although the rumor mill (sam mobile) says that Samsung might just skip to 4.3 for some higher end devices.

What's a good rom for the galaxy tab 2 10.1 and why?

I am currently running cyanogen mod 10.1 nightly and so far it's a great rom and I do like it a lot. But I would like to try some new roms and see how they are. So tell me what are your favorite roms and why?

Depends on what you want.
I'd suggest but it's truly your decision in the end, sungsonic hd if you want stock but quite a bit customized. Plus adi the dev of that rom does an awesome job of updating his rom. His runs on JB 4.1.2
Also if you want custom ICS I'd suggest Romswell for that

Does that work with 10.1 inch galaxy tabs? Or just 7? Because i have a 10.1 inch
CM 10.1 with no doubt. While other roms have many features, CM 10.1 are update almost everyday, its very small and very fast. and its android 4.2.2.

I'm almost certain only the 7 inch version but you'd have to check with the dev. I'm still almost sure it's only for the 7 though

Do you mean 4.2 as 4.3 as far as my knowledge goes hasn't been released yet.
Sent from my HTC One using Tapatalk 4
4.2.2 is the latest I've heard. Has there been any talk about a major Android upgrade, like 5.0? Seems since Apple is doing a major upgrade IOS7, Google/android might want to just for marketing.

edit: HERE are some downloads and a video
Galaxy S4 Google Edition got 4.3 jelly bean. Not much of a change though.
