You don't need to route your phone to get this version of android. It will update.
the phone im looking at getting doesnt get jellybean untill 2013
is this supported on Android tv box I have now 4.0.4 installed ????
or just go to the play store,from there it dosent have to be snuck in
Uh you can still buy these anywhere.
I flashed cyanogenmod android version 4.1.1 from euroskank. IT is amazing. It is waaay better than just the stock version. Although i was blown away by 4.1 anyways. Nearly everything is better than 4.0 which was amazing in its on ways. The touch screen is a lot more responsive, CPU runs better, animations are smooth as butter in dallas in the middle of the summer so yeah liquid smooth. Many of the apps seem to work better, an i have more customizations, but i am using a custom version of it.
If you buy it from Google Play it will ship with 4.0 but you will be immediately prompted to update to 4.1. Jellybean is available right out of the box.
If i buy it from googleplay it ships with 4.0 Do they push the 4.1 update after a couple weeks or do you have to do it yourself??
Thanks!
nice review! 🙂
Funny how u act like u know where everything is when this is ur first time using jelly bean
@androidauthority where did you get your screen protector from?
Super SU is what it's called.
Super SU? You mean SU? Super User… not Super Super User.
@nguyenem1 *Actually it can make your device faster
@nguyenam1 Actual
Html 5 is taking over flash, most newer things run on it and will eventually over take flash, jellybean can run html5 !
If you're bored with Jelly bean then don't bother using any phone because nothing is better than this.
There are many other things you can do besides firmware updates when rooted, so keep that in mind as well 🙂
no no no 🙂 in fact you can overclock once rooted, and remove pesky bloatware that slows the device down.
When you root your device, does it slow it down at all?
@itsGazalan you were right,now Adobe said that no JB device will have Flash
GNexus ftw…getting one this year!
This is such a nice phone, sad apple who have been unable to keep up with google have found the courtroom as the best way to compete. This phone is banned in the US. But that is why the black market exists. You can still buy the phone from UK or Canadian stores and sneak it in the US via the black market.
Quite boring,get the impression android is running out of steam,looks too similar to ics,sold my s2 and havent got wrapped up in the whole s3 thing.
vôoooooooooooooice search
old gplus
@itsGazalan i repeated what Adobe said… they will support only "certified" devices with further Flash releases. Maybe some JB devices will get it? Doesnt sound like a definite no to me
yes it does, we will have a video review
No real functionality, but I was saying I would just leave my phone sitting there with the easter egg displayed 🙂
as far as i know only certified phones will have flash … i think Galaxy Nexus isn't certified (doesnt come with flash preinstalled…but i might be wrong,i dont own a GNexus yet)
hahah…awesome
Adobe is not supporting 4.1 and will limit downloads further in to the year.
How do you use it as your "screensaver?" I haven't seen anything like a screensaver option since Codename Android months ago.
very cool lol
no
