Jelly bean coming to sprint galaxy nexus in Q3 - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

http://www.mobilebloom.com/galaxy-nexus-4g-slated-for-jelly-bean-4-1-in-q3/2218368/

Questionable accuracy of the article as a whole. Samsung has already started that the Galaxy S line will not receive ICS, so what makes the author think that it will now receive JB? Also note that July is in quarter 3, which was the update for GSM Galaxy Nexus, Nexus S, and the wifi Xoom. Author states nothing new and includes random misinformation. Really - the Galaxy Nexus 4G? Next he'll be writing things like "Nexus Prime". The link to a retailer page for the Sprint Nexus is not an indicator that Sprint is somehow the next Nexus due for JB. This guy probably works for Amazon and is trying to make some money.

If you click on the source link, it takes you back to the page in the OP. This is nothing more than another unreliable rumor source reposting and further inflating inaccuracies.

Will this phone still be worth getting come November?

I'm due for an upgrade in the near future but unfortunately the Galaxy Nexus has already been around for a while. I don't want to end up with another Dinc situation where I get mine a year late, all the good devs leave and we have little support left.
So do you think (Opinions here people) this phone will still be worth getting when I upgrade or should I go with the next big thing?
A new nexus should be coming out by the end of the year, so my answer would be no.

Depends on the price. This phone is still a nexus and will get the next Android version. The specs for the GN are more than sufficient over the long haul.
Last years nexus has a more up to date version than my current Nexus.

Yeah we will be impatiently awaiting the next nexus. But on the other hand this is a good phone and will serve a lot of people well for a 2 + year life span.
sent with 3g courage. better recognize. 4g courage coming soon. stock up on diapers.
I had my Nexus in hand by November last year so I'd say no do not buy the current one.
The phone is still awesome..... Get it!

If you can afford better then there will be better available by November... in fact there will be better available in a few weeks time when the galaxy s3 comes out.. you won't have to wait until November to find something better than the gnex

Last Nov, the Nexus S was still around $400 on Amazon (still same price even today ). Hardware wise, this GN will be in better shape comes this Nov than the Nexus S was last Nov.
When the new Nexus comes out, it'll be in $650-700 range again (unless Google decides then to also sell the new Nexus at $399), so this current one at $400 is still a great deal.
Come November I would get the new Nexus.
As others have said... we'll see the next Nexus device in November. Galaxy Nexus will be cheap and still good (enough) though.
The phone will be a year old. Wait for a more recent release.
I think Google needs to stick with imagination technologies gpu's. For lots of reasons, including an apple one.

This phone will be fine by November. Plus, if rumors are correct we won't see a Nexus phone this year, but rather the Nexus tablet. Jelly Bean is said to have "game changing tablet optimizations".

I would wait for the next Nexus. The GNexus will still be a good phone but is kind of sad to see your device outdated one month after you bought it.

So? N1 has ICS. Unnoficial, but still. Nexus Prime will most def have future versions of the OS.
You people gotta be rich or something, changing phones like that.

Please don't get it just wait for the next one. I got mine just now cause of sprint just barely got it and is the only android phone that appeals to me right now. But if the next nexus doesn't come out on Verizon then maybe you shouldn't get it but if he does then yes wait for that one

Get it now and move to pre paid service mwhahahaha

Nexus 4 will potentially be released around Dec./Jan. so Id hold off. By then the GNex will have dwindled down to Tier 2 hardware.

Good idea?

Wife wants a new phone...I was thinking of adding her to my account and getting a galaxy nexus (only cuz its lte and stock ics) and giving her my beloved gs2
Will I regret it? Should I hold off on final cm9?

In 8 days the galaxy s3 goes on sale. I would wait till then.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium
I think it's a good idea. I myself like the Galaxy Nexus more than the better spec'd SIII, but that may because Samsung waited almost two years (don't quote me on that) to release the SII and then 9 months for the SIII. Also, you'd be sure to get updates more quickly with the Nexus as it is pure Google.

[Q] The next Galaxy Nexus?

I know Gnex just got update with jelly bean but does anyone know when Galaxy Nexus 2 is comiing out? will it prob be next year??
just asking cause i can't find any rumors regarding it...
I doubt very highly that the next iteration of the Nexus phone will be called the Galaxy Nexus 2. Historically, there's not been much precedent for that, unless you count the G1 and G2, but that was before the Nexus moniker. Nothing was announced about it at Google I/O, so I would suspect the next Nexus phone is a long way off.

On the other hand, they just announced a tegra 3 tablet and the gnex is the better part of a year old. I wouldn't be surprised if they came out with a quadcore phone toward the end of the year.

I think real rumors started showing around august/September.... phone was shown in November?
I don't see why we would see a nexus phone launch in under a year since the galaxy nexus was shown. Unless there is credence to having multiple phone manufacturers go at once.
I'd say a release is 6-12 months out for the next phone, just based on common sense
I don't think there gonna make a galaxy nexus 2

I wish it is Moto Nexus
Quad-core nexus with 5mp camera. That's something to laugh about.
Well every november a new Nexus comes out to play..so be looking for some info on or around sept/Oct..should be based off the SG3..with some extra toys I myself really cant wait!! Cash is just waiting..l0l
I'm hoping realistically for this.
Quad-Core S4 (If they can get the 4G to work with it)
2GB RAM
3000maH+ battery
4.5-4.7 inch screen
720p+ screen
8MP rear camera with badass sensor
2MP front camera
Android 4.1+ obviously

To be realistic, im guessing it will be a somewhat gimped SGS3

How is Galaxy Nexus so far?

This is my original post about how my N1 died.
Farewell to Nexus One
I am looking for new phone, and I am interested with Galaxy Nexus, as I am a Nexus fanboy.
So, how is Galaxy Nexus so far? How big the upgrade if compared to N1? I don't read any reviews about it yet, and I want to hear some small opinion or review from xda members.
Thanks a lot.
A giant upgrade!

Use the search feature and read existing reviews with 10+ pages. Its a lot more efficient than starting a thread.
You'll get a lot of biased posts as well since...well..you are in the Galaxy Nexus forum.
Its $350 without a contract. I think that's a steal. Get it.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
Get the GNex. You'll wonder why you didn't do it sooner.
Its the best phone out there.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
I went from a G1 to N1 to NS to GNex... Each phone has been better than the last.
It's a huge jump from the N1 to the GNex, don't wait any longer.

I had the nexus one and loved it, but switching to the galaxy nexus was the best thing, don't know how I used the screen on the nexus one its tiny, plus you get faster radios, way better camera, a ffc and you can actually play games without the multi touch crapping out or being limited by the Adreno 200 GPU. And last but not least you get [email protected][email protected]!.
Get the galaxy nexus and you won't look back.

Nexus gives you wings?
.. but yeah, N1 to a GN is a HUGE upgrade. Any phone of this generation will be a huge upgrade. A caution of word though, after using Galaxy Nexus... your N1 screen will look like a joke. At least that's what GN did to me to any phone with a screen smaller than 4.5"
Hell, I went from the HTC One X to the GNex and it felt like a massive upgrade. I couldn't imagine going from N1 to GN. Do eeeet.
Get the GN and no mistake.
I'd changed my GN only with the next GN.
A big upgrade that's for sure.

Just use the open VPN for android off the market and you don't need to worry about tun. Just import your openvpn profile. Its nice app as you don't need root. It works on stock.

[Speculations] Jelly Bean 4.1.1 coming to GS 2!

Now, I don't want to make rumors or anything, but this isn't a rumor. Listen to my line of logic for a second, even if the SGH-t989 doesn't get Jelly Bean, the SkyRocket will at which point a complete, stable version of Jelly Bean can be ported. Know that we know it's incoming, we just need to play a waiting game..
http://www.redmondpie.com/android-j...ming-to-more-samsung-devices-later-this-year/
Devices confirmed to get Jelly Bean 4.1.1 :
Galaxy Tab 2 7.0
Galaxy Tab 2 10.1
Galaxy Note 10.1
Galaxy S II
Galaxy Note
Galaxy Tab 7.0 Plus
Galaxy S Advance
Galaxy S II LTE
Galaxy Music
Galaxy Chat
Galaxy Ace 2
Galaxy Beam
Galaxy Ace Plus
Galaxy Mini II
Galaxy S DUOS

Read this earlier in flipboard. I heard that usually when they mention gs2, they mean the international one... hopefully we do get the update

Definitely hopeful, but if skyrocket gets it, I will be just as happy since the ROMs will be stable.

They mentioned Galaxy S II LTE, which is identical to the T989. So even if it's not released to T-Mobile officially one of the great devs here will port it, no doubt.
I never had a doubt that the Hercules would get JB it was just a matter of when
