Help Can I update straight from Gingerbread to Jellybean ??

[wowee]

Hi all,

I've had my S2 for a year now, love it, but I think it's time to bite the bullet and upgrade the Android version. I can find info on how to upgrade (I'm feeling a bit nervous about it, must admit), but can't find anything that clarifies whether I can do the upgrade straight from gingerbread top jellybean, or whether I HAVE to upgrade to ICS first.

Can anyone confirm pls.

Perhaps ironass's thread on major upgrades answers your question. (See topic: "Long Version")

Well thanks for the pointer, but I have just read thru', and no, it doesn't answer the question.

Yes, you can go from GB to JB. I think what naith_kk was referring to is that doing a Factory reset and a wipe would be a good idea when switching platforms.

For details on how to flash JB manually, see post #1, here.
