When will Galaxy S2 get Jelly Bean update?

This is a next generation community.
[Galaxy S II General] julle131:
None knows. You will notice here when official is released
[Galaxy S II General] TWeaKoR:
That sounds like a Samsung/TouchWiz feature, current JB ROMs are based on AOSP/CM10. When Samsung finally release JB for the S2 you can expect to see features like this to be present (though only for ROMs based on stock firmware).
[Galaxy S II General] kratos_12:
cant wait for the JB update and curious to know about the meaning of "butter smooth":D
[Galaxy S II General] jrxtepan:
Filled the Form

I filled the form and replaced SGSIII with our SGSII ... Hope it works...

C'mon everybody... This might get their attention!!! :good:
[Galaxy S II General] olyloh6696:
Is it likely we get 4.1.2? Or just 4.1.1?
[Galaxy S II General] mihaixp:
It is more than likely we'll receive 4.1.1.

PS: CM10 M2 has been released on a lot of phones, not on International I9100 (courtesy of Samsung). :eek:
[Galaxy S II General] olyloh6696:
In the later future though, is it likely we will receive the 4.1.2 update? We had that with 4.0.3 to 4.0.4 with bug fixes:) i really hope that will be the case!

Is this due to the Exynos processor? New to the scene here, do't really know my way round the S2 forums yet!

Cheers
[Galaxy S II General] mihaixp:
1) Hopefully.

2) You can find more details about Samsung support (better said, lack of it) for Exynos processors here: http://omgdroid.com/samsung-exynos-based-phones-are-slowly-losing-developer-support/

Another "Mysterious Egg" by SamMobile: Samsung to start with Jelly Bean updates for Europe next week. Not confirmed by Samsung yet. (Inside info). Link: https://twitter.com/SamMobiles/status/256783533287301122 . Nothing more, nothing less, no particular phone, model, etc. Hypothetically, could it be possible that Sammy starts to roll out JB in block for several model in the same time? I'm skeptical on this.
[Galaxy S II General] htcplussony:
Wonder if our s2 Jellybean upgrade will even match what the s3 mini's software. Probably not.
[Galaxy S II General] olyloh6696:
Yeah, i am hoping for the same although it seems unlikely. The good thing is that ported S3 mini ROMs should have no resizing issues.
[Galaxy S II General] dud3me:
Yeah because if they give us the same sw as the s3 mini no one will buy that. Really don't understand why they even made it since the S advance is equally good and the s II is in every way better and cheaper. They should just update the current devices and make a big deal about that.
[Galaxy S II General] Vazduh:
To make some more money. People will buy it (looks like SIII, costs like S or S advanced, has new 4.1 JB? ... SII although is better, it is morally old, everyone has it or had it, nothing fancy about that, but the shiny new SIII mini...these are reasons to buy it)
[Galaxy S II General] dud3me:
Yeah, I know many people who don't "care" as much will buy that. Personally I hate the s3 design and would prefer the htc one series over this years samsung setup. Our S II looks far better imo than the s III, but that's a question of personal preference. :)

Oh forgot to mention that even though shiny and new, 400€ is way too much for the s III mini.
[Galaxy S II General] Prashanthme:
if it was then we must had some leaks on JB for S2!! I wonder Note and S2 ll get updates together??
[Galaxy S II General] DrunkFuX666:
They were talking about the s3 jb rollout... Not the s2 or note for that matter...

[Galaxy S II General] kezgez:
how do you know please
[Galaxy S II General] Deadline-007:
Maybe Samsung will release jb just not only for s2 but for other phones like i9070.
[Galaxy S II General] rakeshishere:
+1

I bought S2 after seeing S3 announcement and looks disappointed me.

Nothing is confirmed. There's absolutely no news about JB on any older device from Samsung. I'm tired of waiting and will get next nexus soon
[Galaxy S II General] ohwarumbloss:
That's not true, Samsungmobile said on their Facebook page that JB has rolled out for the S3 in Poland and other Devices, like ours, will get it in some time.

You have much money and not a lot of patience, run, buy another phone ;) if not, just wait or use CM10 builds which have become very very good!

Greetings!
[Galaxy S II General] olyloh6696:
My prediction is around mid-November. Samsung will continue to focus on JB fir the S3, and I'm sure we'll be next in line.
[Galaxy S II General] Spiralzz:
Let's hope 4.2 is released after s2 gets the jb update, otherwise Samsung will start updating s3s again... :/
[Galaxy S II General] shaunnicho:
Yeah you're right... I hope this doesn't happen
[Galaxy S II General] chaitanya.tarole:
Indian version of s2 (i9100g) gets delayed updates . I guess i9100 will get the latest update first !!!
[Galaxy S II General] atulalvenkar:
I9100G is not Indian version of SII it was released in Europe also. It's a version with TI OMAP SoC.

I9100G has better AOSP ROM support then I9100 due to the later having an Exynos chip.

Why wait for Samsung to release updates when you have fully working CM.
[Galaxy S II General] rajarshi10:
I don't think JB will come for S2 cause there should've been a leak by now if we are following Sammy's promise of a Novmeber release :eek:
[Galaxy S II General] rakeshishere:
You know how long I have been hearing about that Facebook Page crap? It's still not concrete whether S2 will get JB. Enough of been in mercy of OEMs. I made a mistake twice buying a non nexus device and will never do the same.

IMHO CM10 is still not a daily driver due to bugs like RIL crash where i can not use my smartphone even as a normal phone. I shouldn't blame devs for that but thank Samsung for it. :rolleyes:

Edit:

I'm not rich to afford a new phone with every Android update but I don't want to be stupid in doing so.
[Galaxy S II General] olyloh6696:
It's not Samsung's fault you decided to not buy a Nexus device. Quit moaning.
[Galaxy S II General] Dark Emotion:
You are wrong, some carriers already confirmed that there will be 4.1 for SII.
[Galaxy S II General] rakeshishere:
Did I say it's Samsung's fault for me not buying a nexus phone? I'll surely blame samsung for releasing 18294643464 galaxy series phones every few months and totally stop ignoring them down the line.

I'm using international variant of S2 and not a carrier based one. Many of them including carriers have confirmed about JB on S2 but there appears to be no progress visible.
[Galaxy S II General] ohwarumbloss:
Samsungmobile said on their Facebook Site that JB has rolled out already in Poland for the S3, I'm pretty sure that is confirmed?

Why should they lie?

You're right about CM10,there are still some Problems but its getting better every day.

I am one of those People saying : "Hope dies last" ;)
[Galaxy S II General] rakeshishere:
It's confirmed by Samsung and SGS3 users that JB is deployed officially in Poland but Nobody in this thread cares about JB on SGS3 in Poland or else where. :rolleyes:

Samsung should give sources and documentation to CM team or provide official updates to their older devices. Unfortunately they aren't obliged for both.
[Galaxy S II General] loop4444:
JB will come. When? No one knows.

So stop pretending like you do..
[Galaxy S II General] ohwarumbloss:
Yes smartie, no-one cares about S3 here, but older devices and more countries will come after that. That's the important thing about it, you unfortunately missed.

:) come down, relax, and don't make yourself look stupid with statements like CM10 isn't useable or Samsung has to bla bla..:)
[Galaxy S II General] loop4444:
lol cm10 is more then usable, especialy with RCs.. works really well
[Galaxy S II General] yaatzek:
Yep, especially with ril crashes...
[Galaxy S II General] shaunnicho:
Dunno why but I've never had a ril crash. It's weird how different the same phone model can be
[Galaxy S II General] minidou-77:
Me too never had a single one...
[Galaxy S II General] ohwarumbloss:
Same here, never had such problems but there are still some things that bug me so I stay with stock for now, but that's just my very own personal problem ;)

The CM10 builds are excellent work of the devs already, it's just amazing what they do with all those problems they stumbled into!!

Never the less, I am very curious about Jelly Bean from Samsung lol
[Galaxy S II General] loop4444:
thats why its RC not stable release. pretty honest imho
[Galaxy S II General] mihaits:
Ok, I've seen enough moaning here, if you want to actually do something to help, read this thread and follow the instructions there. There is quite a big action started from there to flood Samsung pages with requests for Exynos sorce code and documentation because it's the worst documented chipset to work with for devs and that's why we can't get new versions of pure android (that cyanogenmod is based on for example) to work well and we always have bugs or missing features. Big devs like codeworkx, Entropy512 or gokhanmoral already want to give up on galaxy s2 and s3 development because of that. We must not stop (politely) requesting for sources and documentation until we get a clear answer from samsung.
[Galaxy S II General] DrunkFuX666:
Finally someone who says something productive... Was just reading people saying "oh I hope Samsung doesn't release jb for the s2 before 4.2 is released so we can get that..."

First of all be grateful for whatever you get... Having said that... The s2 will NEVER get Key Lime Pie... So don't even get into that ridiculous dream world... But we will get the s2 soon enough... Ofcourse its a marketing ploy to get people to buy the s3... If the s2 also got JB at the same time then why would people upgrade...

Having said that... Yes it's more productive to join in to get the exynos source codes... Luckily last I heard Samsung has contacted Codeworkx to hear out what the problem is... So should be in some dialog now... If the source is released then never again do you need to worry about updates since you will always have the custom ROMs... Those that prefer Samsung official ROMs... I don't get why your even on xda to begin with...

So let's stop the bickering and get those source codes out... Once that happens its smooth sailing... Its sad to see so many devices getting the cm10 m2 package but not us... Even the i9100G has gotten it...

And as for cm10... If your using stock kernel then iv not been having any ril problems for the past 10 days since I moved back to stock from siyah... Nor having the horrendous ram leak problems...

[Galaxy S II General] rakeshishere:
You need to realize S2 is a phone and then a smart phone. I'm not sure how can CM10 can be considered usable when a major bug like RIL crash exists. It's like a showstopper bug which may not happen to you but definitely is an issue.

I'm not making a stupid statement but justifying how people shouldn't suggest CM10 as a viable alternative to use JB on the S2.
[Galaxy S II General] sergini:
Im tired of waiting! Im selling my phone next friday,will change to an s3 (if I find a great business) or a nexus.
[Galaxy S II General] stormtroopercs:
Go nexus... s3 will have same problem when s4 is out!
[Galaxy S II General] :
I don't know nothing about S3 but Nexus is definitely something to be recommended. Before I tasted stock google JB I had thought some of cm10 builds here were smooth enough....well they weren't! Of course some moments of choppiness can be even noticed on Nexus but the difference in smoothness is huge. I really wish you guys success with this petition. S2 definitely desserves butter !!! I'll sign it as well!

COMMENT ABOUT THIS.

http://www.tinhte.vn/threads/1584576/

Note 1 is getting (almost!) all the awesome goodies from Note 2 and S3.

Pop Up Browser

Pop Up S-Note

Pop Up Play (But already had it since 4.0.4)

Paper Artist

New Ripple Lockscreen

Smart Stay

All The Motion Gesture from S3.

New Browser from Note 2.

New Notification Center from Note 2.

Blocking Mode

New Music Player

New AllShare Play

etc.

Basically the whole UI is overhauled to make it in par with the current generation of Samsung smartphones.

Do you think S2 will also get the same upgrade? :eek:
[Galaxy S II General] stormtroopercs:
No Samsung will screw us over....
[Galaxy S II General] rajarshi10:
Yes we will. Note & S2 have the same hardware. Apart from the the S Pen features, we SHOULD get everything.
[Galaxy S II General] mihaits:
Am I the only one here who is poor and is concerned about updates because he only buys a smartphone once a few years???:laugh:
[Galaxy S II General] stormtroopercs:
Most likely. :)
[Galaxy S II General] atulalvenkar:
Not same hardware as such, Note I/II and GS3 have HD screens whereas GS2 is 800x480.

We just don't have enough screen real estate to use some features that comes with Note II.

My guess is we might get at max the new launcher and that too because of the Apple lawsuit.

Im definitly not rich but i bought my s2 for 280€ and im selling for 320€

Dont take me as a spoiled kid that buys whatever he wants,im just buying another one if a good deal appears (i guess I might have an s3 for 350€, new and sealed).

Would be a smart choice a galaxy nexus?
[Galaxy S II General] ohwarumbloss:
It seems we have to trust in CM for this lol

what an epic fight between Maya, Samsung and Cyanogen, for now Cyanogen rules em both ;-D

---------- Post added at 01:55 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:47 PM ----------

I only know things I've been reading about Nexus and S3, but the S2 lies here in my hands while I am typing and it just feels right :)

Latest CM build by mcm is great, gaming without heat, smooth and no crashes so far!

People moaning about Batterylife, lucky me, my Batterylife with cm is very ok..and no RIL crashes but I am not moving around a lot.

Important to me, Endomondo Sports Tracker is running without Problems, Facebook works, Calender, Soundquality with Headset is great, Dead Trigger, Modern Combat, Dead Space, Need for Speed Hot Pursuit all running very well!!
[Galaxy S II General] sergini:
What I would lokie to know is if is worth a galaxy nexus instead of S3, I know nexus has a much better support but S3 seems a much better machine...
[Galaxy S II General] mihaits:
If you won't change if for more than a year, buy the nexus, otherwise you can buy the S3. The best choice would be to wait and buy the next nexus though.

[offtopic] How in the world can you get a new S3 for 350 Euros?? I bought my S2 in July last year for a bit under 500 euros and it was the lowest price I could get, it was from a God-knows-what site that delivered it to me and everything was in polish in the box :D .
[Galaxy S II General] sergini:
I wont have enough money for the next nexus.. I might have a nexus for 320€ and an S3 for 360€...

I'm selling my s2 for 320.
[Galaxy S II General] ohwarumbloss:
Do you think 320€ is a realistic price for our S2? I would sell mine if someone gives me that and get me a good used HTC. Why HTC? Because while my S2 was bricked I bought a Wildfire S and recognized that HTC gives the option now to unlock bootloader officially! So they are way more open than they were I'm the past. And, imo Sense is pretty. ( please don't throw bricked S2s after me now)

HTC said they are listening and proved it that way, I think.
[Galaxy S II General] sergini:
So you think 320€ is not enough? After S3 our phone as lost a lot of value, also Samsung not saying anything is not helping in any way, think this is a perfect time to sell my beloved SII. And I already have a buyer.

I bought it for 280€.

And its in excellent shape.
[Galaxy S II General] ohwarumbloss:
I don't know, it's very frustrating when I think about what I payed for mine 2 months ago :(

280€ for a not stolen or bricked S2 sounds veryyyyy cheap to me ;)
[Galaxy S II General] sergini:
Yes, it was not stolen, I bought to a kid who wanted to buy an Iphone s4 (I had to take the chance with such a noob kid), it only had 5months, I have the buying ticket and all that stuff..

How much did you payed for yours?

I think that 320€ is a very good price nowadays, specially when I'm making profit with the sell.
[Galaxy S II General] ohwarumbloss:
Contract with o2 Germany, €449...

Ok, I have to say I just don't have so much money to buy it without that.
[Galaxy S II General] sergini:
Without what?
[Galaxy S II General] skeathy95:

Can't wait to see official JB :)
[Galaxy S II General] ohwarumbloss:
Eh? Which Planet?
[Galaxy S II General] :
ohwarumbloss it's not that great with HTC. Of course you can unlock bootloader on their website, but by doing it you accept disclaimer, so in worst case they have right to refuse service if your hboot is unlocked.

I am thinking about buying second hand 'HTC Legend. It has sentimental value for me. My first android, great aluminium unibody, extremely long, and tedious root-procedure in order to bypass Hboot S-ON!!! Damn these were the days !!! :)
[Galaxy S II General] ohwarumbloss:
Yes the warranty is a point but on a used phone it doesn't really matter at all ;)

I do like the mentality of HTC in this point, you can do it but at your own risk. At least they "heared" the community!

My 1st android was a HTC Dream, catastrophic Battery life but one hell of a phone!! Dual touch and all this great stuff, of course only made possible by CyanogenMod..

And Android was kind of a Virgin back in the day's without all this commercial hype all around it..

But someone said, things are not getting worse, we're just gettin older ;)

[Galaxy S II General] lurker316:
How did you brick your S2? Just curious.
[Galaxy S II General] ohwarumbloss:
It was my 2nd brick in ~2 months.

Happened when I received an update from 4.0.3 to 4.0.4.

But, Samsung repaired it without any Problems, that's the good part of the story..

Bad Part, of course, all my Data were gone plus they changed my CSC from DBT to VIA and now I'm stuck with 4.0.3 ( or Odin)

Oh, and now I got a "sane" chip ;) after just 2 bricks lol
[Galaxy S II General] sahibunlimited:
And why are you updating to 4.0.4 knowing that it bricks your phone?
[Galaxy S II General] Testraindrop:
Let me get this straight... you bricked your phone twice using official updates? :eek:

Thank god I'm flashing CM nightlys almost everyday, a least I'm on the safe side :laugh:
[Galaxy S II General] ohwarumbloss:
Umm, nope, tbh, my first brick was a combination of my insane chip, the stock 4.0.4 kernel,a fulltouch recovery and me, touching on it ;)

I really don't think we will:/ We're lucky that we even get jellybean and our screen is mostly to tiny for those note functions :o
[Galaxy S II General] rakeshishere:
I know it's for Note 1 but I was curious and wanted to see a video of f/w

Also "Tiny" is an understatement :p
[Galaxy S II General] Osyx:
Okey sry I misunderstood, he gave a link for it thought?

Haha yeah but it's too small in Samsungs opinion for the features, better now? ;P
[Galaxy S II General] rakeshishere:
The link he shared doesn't have download option for f/w and nor does it have name of f/w.

It's totally suspicious in my opinion.
[Galaxy S II General] Osyx:
Well it's stock he's talking about so it might not be out yet;)
[Galaxy S II General] rakeshishere:
From the screenshots it is stock but how can he talk and there is no indication of a leak?

I feel stupid not going for a note when every store I went, the salesman was pushing for Note 1 instead of S2 :rolleyes:
[Galaxy S II General] Osyx:
Because they are Samsungs own pictures? Or an Samsung developer who made some own pictures to show. Samsung only allows leaks sometimes not always and when they don't it's hard to get them, since if they find a guy who released a leak they will fire him. So he/she just wanted to show that it's on its way without getting fired, maybe.
[Galaxy S II General] arovik:
It's probably just screenshots from Note 2, with a little photoshop work on the first screenshot showing N7000 :D
[Galaxy S II General] j510:

[Galaxy S II General] rakeshishere:
Could be...

What happened to guy who leaked JB for SGS3 every alternate day? I heard Samsung banished him to prison :P

I'm curious as well. No information on XDA regarding this elsewhere or in Note forums.
[Galaxy S II General] Osyx:
I heard that too, don't know what happend with him:/ Maybe a BIG fine:P
[Galaxy S II General] Kristion:
I'm looking at the recently release S3 mini and at my S2. Do you think that Samsung are stupid enough to release JB for S2 when they have a new phone that they want to sell? I mean, for a person who poses a little logic, it;s obvious that the S2 is a way better choice against the S3 in terms of price and power ( we leave aside the feng-shui rounded shape, shinny, pebbles or whatever).

Till now there was no leak, nothing official, just some presumptions, now the S3 mini is launched... From my point of view I think that we could change the November thingie from the thread, because if JB will really be released I'm thinking at smth around February next year at best. I repeat, it;s my opinion, I don;t want to shatter anyone's hopes, I'm as eager as everyone, but let's face it, JB is further and further away from us :)
[Galaxy S II General] iamnotkurtcobain:
Once again: The S2 gets JB.

And if that wouldn't be the case the Note 1 gets it. Samsung said that at note 2 conference. Note 1 is a bigger S2 so we get the stuff we need. Fact. But exynos source would be more awesome.
