I'd just call sprint and say you want to get the Epic touch, but your 30 days with your Nexus ends the day before launch.

Well if you count 4.0.4 as the first release. Remember 4.0.3 even though I am glad we didn't get it . Anyways I can finally flash the radio with peace of mind.

So this is identical to the latest leaked release right?

The build number is the same so I assume it's identical.

Ha I might go back to stock and receive the update just so I can see what my nexus looks like with a "system update" notification. Lol. Jk. This is cool though, glad that sprint is finally on board.

I'm actually shocked that sprint released it before the galaxy nexus or HTC evo one were released.....
They have held back updates in The past so that they could release an upcoming phone and have the selling point of using androids latest version first in the sprint now network....

Agreed but with this being leaked already I don't think they had much choice. All the non-rooted people would be circling the wagons at Sprint headquarters.

Mmm... I don't think the update is rolling right now... nobody I know or or no other forum is reporting that they got the OTA...

They said it was rolling out over this next month

Maybe they just meant that it's the first phone that comes pre-installed with it.
I think that JB is going to be officially supported on the Nexus S as Google said JB is only going to be a little update to make ICS faster.

PS: Check out Google I/O 2012 app's screenshots. On one shot you can see a launcher pic (must be a JB shot).

Will there even be a new Nexus phone this year if the Gnex is the first phone with JB?

There might be a new nexus device around November since that seems to be the cycle Google has chosen for nexus releases.

Nexus 7 tablet is the hardware release for JB and since Google don't want to fragment anymore the gn is the first phone with JB.

Also once 4.1 is pushed to AOSP then the roms will pop up. Who cares if Google don't support nexus s. XDA does

hard to say as JB will make its debut 1 year, 6 months, 11 days from when the Nexus S was first released. This is out of Google's 18month support period.

1 year, 6 months and 11 days translates to something like 16,3 months. Which is indeed inside Google's window of support.

1 year = 12 months. 12 + 6 = 18. So maybe, maybe not. Either way it's close and speculation is futile.

If you bought the NS from T-Mobile first day it was launched, you still stuck with this handset for another 6 months. so google should give a full 2 year support. Come on google! NS can run ICS. NS can run JB.

Wasn't the Samsung Galaxy Note 2 meant to ship with JB in order to compete with iPhone 5 release in October?

How long will we have to wait for 4.2??

Hi all,
the nexus 7 is my first nexus device (although I am drooling at the nexus 4 ),
but I was just wondering if anyone else, who has owned a different nexus device, could tell me how long you normally have to wait for the next version of android?.
Thanks in advance
Cheers

Some of the features will be available on the Nexus 7, some won't and you'll need to get a whole new device costing a small fortune to get the full update. It might break things along the way without giving you a way back.
....but then I remember it's Android and not Apple!

..... I'm not entirely sure what you're trying to say here.
Being part of the whole Nexus line, there's a good chance we'll get 4.2 pushed out when the Nexus 4 and 10 get released. Google will be keen to have its flagship line all under the same version.

I agree. Google made it pretty clear (to me at least) that the Nexus line will be receiving the 4.2 update. There was absolutely no mention of Nexus 7 not receiving certain aspects of the update. I would say that Nexus 7 would receive the update the same day the 4 and 10 are released as well.

This is a joke for you guys who don't get it. All Nexus devices get updated I think. I think even old ones like the Nexus S and all that.

Lol well if he meant it as a joke it didn't read like one. Especially since a new device owner was asking about something he deemed a legit concern. If it was meant as a joke then my fault.

I agree. Pretty dumb answer to someone asking a legitimate question.

Google was supposed to release the 4,2 update on October 29th, but according to Asus it has been delayed ever so slightly.Asus says to expect an update to android 4.2 very soon.

Expect android 4.2 on November 11th to November 12th on the nexus 7

Hi,
Thanks heaps guys, as long as we with the n7 arnt left in the lurch for weeks after the update comes out on the n4
My friend has a nexus s, and he had to wait a few weeks after 4.1 was released before he got it, but our devices are newer I suppose

Unless you sideload, don't expect it on the 13th. OTA rolling updates can take up to a couple of weeks.

Got a reliable source on that? I'm guessing no because it's not true. Google has never released an OS on the day it was announced, and when they announce a new device, they never release the OS for older hardware until the new device is available. So the correct answer is to expect the update in the weeks following the N4/N10 release. Hopefully it will be out within a week, but it can take longer.

Google has said they will start rolling out 4.2 from Nov 11th, 2 days before new devices release.

Will the nexus 7 get android 5.0 ?

No one ever knows when things are coming out from Google. It's what makes things special.

if you are wondering if it will get the next version of android - yes. it's a new(er) nexus device. look how long the nexus s was supported.

OMG. Dude, this is just a list of SAMSUNG devices. Nexus devices are GUARANTEED to get updates for at least two years. AT LEAST. You really think Google would stop giving updates to a device that was just release LAST YEAR?

I don't see why some people make such a huge deal about these updates. Sure they are nice to have, but they don't make or break a Nexus device.
I know when it will be released - when it's released.

There will be a lottery, 100 first lucky ones will be upgraded to 5.0, next 100 will be downgraded to 2.2, rest will be switched off and used as cutting boards.

LOLOLOLOL!
@op
Pretty sure the N7 will get KLP somehow, be it by the wonders of the devs at XDA or by those at Google. I prefer the former over the latter, though. Stock has never suited me.

Wow. It's not like this hasn't been asked numerous times.
Will it get KLP? Assuming that will be the official name, it's likely that it will. The N7 is still well within the support life cycle for updates. Eben if it wasn't, the dev community is more than capable of cooking something from AOSP.
When will it come? Sometime after Google I/O. No one has a crystal ball and can forecast this far out what day Google is going to push the update or release the source.

If we don't get it from google the developers will get it working for us. In about half year I'll buy a new nexus. I think I'll wait for a new nexus 10 and upgrade, I never looked to see if a new nexus 10 was released yet.
