Its the latest OS for android ans it should see the One X.

JB will be pushed to all GNexi at some point. Verizon will probably be last, if that is the one you have. The unlocked GSM version has already got it I believe.

 

[The_Chief]

Correct.

Ice Cream Sandwich is Android 4.0

Jelly Bean is Android 4.1

Google names their Android versions after sweet things. I guess Key Lime Pie is next year?

It comes with MAJOR enhancements that I believe you will LOVE! Having been on it for 2 weeks now, there is no way I would go back to Ice Cream. I am on Verizon, but am unlocked and rooted. Stock users will have to wait some time, I imagine, for Verizon to release it.

My Gnex has been updated (UK) and I don't really know what 'extras' have been added apart from Google Currents and Play Magazines the latter not yet released in the UK!

So what have I that I haven't realised with JB?

Here is the list of all the things that have changed.

Dude, just sit tight. Nobody on Verizon has received the update. In fact, Verizon hasn't even announced when they'd be releasing it. If you want it now, you'll have to root.

Does verizon ever announce it until maybe the day before.

Also, I don't know if the poster was trolling, is rooted, or just accidentally used the word "else" but as written it says that the poster HAS received jellybean.

Got ya. I only put it as an option because a lot of people go on boards and claim they have got updates they don't for trolling purposes. I was not suggesting that was you but it was possible.

Verizon has not released the update. Personally, I hope it comes 2nd week of August.

Jelly Bean is great. On my two new GSM Galaxy Nexus (my wife and I), we already have 4.1.1. We're both on Straight Talk, but that doesn't matter -- the GSM update comes straight from Google.

My wife's got upgraded from 4.0 to 4.1.1 OTA. Within 10 minutes of it being turned on out of the box, said an update was ready. It was 4.1.1.

By that point, I already had mine rooted and loaded with clockwork recovery and never got the OTA update notification. So, I flashed a 4.1.1 ROM with Beats audio.

This is the "general" Galaxy Nexus section. It's not a section for Verizon Galaxy Nexus. Anyone can post and the question was asked what was "jelly bean".

And MOST Galaxy Nexus owners NOW have Jelly Bean. Google started rolling it out July 12 to the GSM Nexus owners, who are the majority.

Frustration over Verizon Galaxy Nexus Jelly Bean update
By Alan Ng on July 20, 2012 47COMMENTS

Earlier on this week we informed you about a potential rollout for an official update to Android 4.1 Jelly Bean for the Samsung Nexus S. While that is obviously great news for those who still have a Nexus S, the same can hardly be said for Galaxy Nexus users on Verizon who are wondering if they have been hung out to dry again.

After the 6 month wait for Ice Cream Sandwich and the bare mininum of official updates since the handset launched in December 2011, it has hardly been a perfect scenario for those who initially thought they were getting a true flagship handset from Google.

With Jelly Bean updates already finalized for the GSM Galaxy Nexus and now the GSM Nexus S it seems, questions may start to be raised on when Verizon plan to offer the update to users.

It is really down to Verizon as well, since you should know now that Verizon is the one who has to approve the update first before it goes live, hence the reason why Google had no trouble at all issuing the update to the GSM Galaxy Nexus without any barriers.

Will consumers have to wait another 6 months until Jelly Bean arrives on the LTE model? That could potentially mean having to wait until December until you get your hands on the latest version of Android and a lot of you will probably argue that it simply isn’t good enough.

There is of course alternatives around this merry go round problem and that falls to you in the way of custom ROMs, as long as you have a rooted handset. If you insist on holding out for an official update, we’re afraid to say though that you may be waiting for another few months yet.

As a Verizon Galaxy Nexus owner, how does it make you feel seeing older handsets such as the Nexus S getting Jelly Bean before you? Do you essentially feel a bit cheated by your carrier, or have you known the update situation with Big Red for a while now and decided that unofficial software is the way to go? You do have that unlocked bootloader remember, so Verizon are not exactly stopping you from heading down this route.

I was replying not to the OP but another poster, who replied back their intent in kind. I also have clarified that I was not calling the poster a troll but just saying that his wording suggested he was VZW with the OTA already. He clarified already and all is good. So I am not sure if you missed that or not but my comment was not about OP.

OK, I sort of missed your meaning. Sorry.

No big deal but this is what I like about this forum. Not very much drama. People can admit minor errors, appreciate your reply
