So is this for Note 1/Note 2 or korean s2? Some people have seen SGS3 launcher, TW ux related apks in ota update files in this one.

On the other side, One of the major bugs(memory leak) with CM10 has been fixed. That's an excellent progress and as of now project butter along with few minor issues needs to be sorted out.

I guess probably by the end of this year, JB roms (AOSP or maybe sammy) can be used as a daily driver. It's time to ditch ICS ;)

[Galaxy S II General] TheSniperFan:
Yeah official. But not yet the nightly. (afaik) it will be in the next one. There is an experimental build by a member of the cm team. It's not recommended for daily usage though, so just wait.

Is November Too Far?

Just a thought. Is it impossible to suggest that perhaps the November news is a bit out of reach? I mean, we haven't heard so much as a peep from Samsung, and neither have we seen even a leak of the rumoured s2 Jelly Bean. That being said though, it would be highly unusual for Sammy not to release the software, as it is proven by ROMs such as CM10 and RootBox that JB can work, even with tweaks etc.
[Galaxy S II General] jackierobinson:
Oh I see what I did there
[Galaxy S II General] kicksilver:
I'm on CM10 now, and I'm really impressed with the effort put into this, it's almost 100%, and not even a month old. These guys are simply awesome.

I have two questions for the experts:

- Will Sammy's official release help solving the "camera flash on exit" issue? Or it's something that can be fixed without the sources?

- I know that we aren't seeing project butter 100% because of the hwcomposer thingy, and I'm feeling that this ROM is really smooth, way smoother than CM9.

So, I read about P. Butter and I know that the VSync, triple buffering and 60FPS are the responsible for all the goodness. I just wanted to know what exactly the HWCOMPOSER messes up, because it's really smooth as of now already.

Thanks lads, looking forward to the next nightlies! Yay

[Galaxy S II General] Zod5000:
I don't think its unusual. Doesn't everything usually go quiet before a new firmware version. IE they stop updating the previous build because there working on the next one?

I take it as a good sign there haven't been any new 4.0.4 builds in the last few weeks. It probably means they've moved on to getting 4.1.1 done.
[Galaxy S II General] rakeshishere:
UHLPY is latest 4.0.4 f/w and build date was Sept 7th. 2012 :rolleyes:

I think we will get the update as the S2 fan base is massive, and if they want loyal customers Samsung know what to do. I guess we wait now.
[Galaxy S II General] Jimbojib:
I'm sure samsung said they'd support all devices for 18 months after release, we're under 18 months so unless they're gonna go back on their word, we SHOULD get it.

The nexus S is getting it too, which has worse hardware and people have it booting okay, no reason why Samsung shouldn't be able to do it
[Galaxy S II General] ajayshah95:
Also, what happened to the 18 month update thing that Google aimed for. I don't know the details exactly and may be wrong, but Google aimed for manufacturers to update their phones for 18 months. The Galaxy S2 was released in February 2011, so our update cycle should end in August 2012 meaning we should get the Jelly Bean update, which may be the last one.

Dude its about money they still never updated the galaxy s yet I had ICS running perfect..their crown jewel is the s3 that's what the focus is on
[Galaxy S II General] D4rKn3sSyS:
This is my humild thought. Even if we don't get sammy's JellyBean (that in case of coming, will be TouchWized), CM is mostly likely start developing on it, to be honest i'm not waiting official sammy rom, as I never use them, and I'm used to that (I was sony ericsson user, and they bring one update and then trashes phones). About the quad core thing, is a big LIE, Nexus is got a dual core processor, and it's not a big secret that our GPU beats Nexus one. Also it has A BIGGER SCREEN, wich means Nexus uses more CPU for rendering screen graphics (This is pretty much tested by myself, you can get lags on ICS by using statusbar transparency without hardware acceleration on Nexus, while it runs without a little bit of lag on S2). Even after all that, it's incredibly fluid on Galaxy Nexus, why on this earth, would it be slow or laggy on our devices? i'd say that's just manufacturer excuse. This is just a opinion anyway, perhaps im 100% wrong :silly:

Jelly Bean on SII

Someone knows about Jelly Bean on Galaxy SII?

The Samsung will release an official version of Jelly Bean on Galaxy SII? SII will able to run that version?

[Galaxy S II General] supercakefish:
And this time next year it'll be the S4 and S3 will bite the dust too...

Unless you are made of money and can afford upgrades every year, the rate at which mobile tech is advancing is pretty scary in terms of companies supporting existing handsets with firmware updates :/

If they decide to be greedy and lazy and not grace us with Jelly Bean on S2 then I will only be getting Nexus phones (or maybe Windows Phone 8) from next time onwards...
[Galaxy S II General] GFXi0N:
SGSII is a high end device, we will get 4.1.... i don't know if official, but i don't care either, because i KNOW for sure we will get it at least, unofficially.... no sweat people, i have plenty of faith.... there are too many SGSII out there and are being still sold.....
[Galaxy S II General] Nasty_z:
i personally agree with you all, there are definitely many SII's being still sold out there and since they've gotten cheaper, more devs will find it affordable..i'm confident that we'll be tasting jelly bean on the SII

i really don't care if it's official or not, either way, even if official gets released, i'd go the AOSP way! :D
[Galaxy S II General] ArmorD:
I pretty much agree with you, but the reason Samsung's official JB would be helpful here, is that their engineers would provide a decent base for modders and hackers.

But yeah, I'm 100% sure CM10 will bee built to our devices, S2 is still one of the most used phones right now(maybe even the second most used).

[Galaxy S II General] ttg:
We can say whatever we want however the key elements of development are -

Drivers / Kernel.

Developers.

Drivers/Kernel -

For Drivers/Kernel the biggest question is how much the "butter" changed under the hood. if current kernel sources and driver implementations are too different there's less chance for open-source devs to work it out quickly.

Keep in mind - even CM9 with all the features has some key "hardware" issues due to close sourced drivers and samsung messy coding. (Audio Driver giving and gave hard-time - initially Mic was huge PITA for ICS, HDMI Out, FM , etc..)

So Samsung might will have impact on JB (waste of time to guess until Source Code will be released...)

Developers -

Just like samsung already have "newer" devices in release priority I believe many developers are in the same place. not sure how much resources codeworx/xplodwild got for closed source with samsung pure hardware without google (eg. Nexus S <> SGS1) something that might get us behind.

Let's hope Google's 18 months software update promise would be kept. :)
[Galaxy S II General] ajayshah95:

[Galaxy S II General] vpraveenis:
A leak alone might not help CM10 much if samsung changes the APIs too much. Codeworkx said the kernel is not shared between s2 and s3 so If they change the API cm cannot do anything with the leaked blobs without having kernel sources.

Atleast it will unleash a host of JB custom roms based on Stock (And debloated)!!

Point

AndroidAuthority in this post puts a valid point

androidauthority.com/galaxy-s2-jelly-bean-update-leaked-android-4-1-1-pre-release-versions-113413

We still don't have any JB leaks for S2. Is it probably because Samsung is not planning to release JB for S2 or may be they are currently working slowly on it and will delay it further.

Just a matter of time now as this news seems to be VERY reliable. :)
[Galaxy S II General] vpraveenis:
It depends actually. If there is not much change in the interface between the old and the new blobs, then the new ones will work with a little bit of playing around and we all can have butter with CM10 soon.

It's like this. Suppose you have two blackboxes A and B. A is the blackbox used in ICS and you know how to call it and give inputs to it and get the desired output (Because the ICS kernel sources were released and that's how it was found how to pass input and make A work)

If A remains similar to B in terms of interface (Good Programming practice, this is how it should be done ideally) then just replacing A with B and everything will just work.

If Samsung changed the interface of B too much, then CM does not know how to call blackbox B (Only with a kernel release will we come to know how to give inputs to B). using A's calling method will not work here since B does not understand it.

Knowing Samsungs approach, we will need the sources too 99%

Sammobile has quoted source as the verge like most other websites. It's surprising samsung is upgrading few devices from GB to JB directly. S2 most likely may get TW 4.0 itself but who cares as long as we're getting JB

Samsung only provides kernel sources. Regarding JB h/w composer , No one has a concrete answer on that.
