Support NeoGAF

[Jeff-DSA]

Now the reality that Nexus devices will get Jellybean, but if you are on an OEM device you are still screwed! Hope you enjoyed the show of features you wont get.

Why do you even post in Android threads? Seriously, why?

Pretty pumped that I'll have Jelly Bean mid-July on my Xoom. Here's hoping that Samsung doesn't get stingy with the GS2.

LOLOLOL Ron Swanson shirt!

 

[reKon]

Having the BEST GALAXY is no joke guys. It has it's benefits..

 

[LCfiner]

Yay, another version of Android my phone will never get, and when I upgrade to a GSIII will take a year to get. Thanks Google!

By the way, I bet Samsung reallly appreciates you making the GSIII obsolete before it's even released. Not to mention the hundreds of other phones JUST getting ICS.

I don't understand why anyone who would care enough about software updates to follow a liveblog/stream preview of a new version would get anything other than a Nexus device.

From the screenshots I'm seeing, the cards and Google search results UI looks very nice. clean and easy to read. a little bit of style. very nice.

 

[Emily Chu]

Oh god, jacket and t-shirt guy.

I'm having flashbacks of J allard from MS

 

[Battlezone]

Oh God, someone tell me where I can order that Ron Swanson t-shirt.

 

[jokkir]

Why would the Nexus S be left out? It's not even two years old yet. The Nexus One got a similar amount of support.

The specs

 

[Pctx]

Going from ICS to JB should be much easier than going from Gingerbread to ICS. ICS was a big change from the old Android 2.x days.

I would guess that the ROM dumps for AT&T, T-mobile and even Verizon will be easier since the framework isn't nearly as different. Hoping for an ODIN One-click flash this fall.

 

[Angelus Errare]

Oh wow 20B installs....too bad majority of those are free since people don't buy apps on Android thanks to sideloading....

edit: oooooooooh app encryption!

Might have something to do with owning an Android device, all the way back to the Nexus One, and I am a web developer that is always interested in what the platforms are doing.

It has been around since the 80's. Some dudes just have crap fashion sense.

 

[mcfrank]

$300 for an Roku and AppleTV Clone? No one can ever say apple is over priced again.

 

[ThatObviousUser]

regarding the google search stuff

 

[jobber]

[clav]

Fools deserve what they get for foolishly not buying Nexus.

What a dumb remark. Are you serious?

 

[Pctx]

holy shit.... only differential apk updates?!?!?!

 

[kehs]

Modular updates for Apps, how about modular updates for the OS?

Right pixleyes?

 

[pxleyes]

Smart APK updating is great for 3G app updates

 

[zbeeb]

damn google is killing this!

delta updates confirmed for apps GINGERBREAD AND ABOVE

 

[Noshino]

YES

NO MORE FULL UPDATE DOWNLOADS!

 

[VanWinkle]

Smart app updates and app encryption are great.

 

[giga]

no more piracy

…this is good.

 

[RuGalz]

A bit LTTP but just saw the leaked information on Nexus 7... I was afraid that it wouldn't have GPS but it has GPS plus NFC at $199. It's so bought. Where do I hand you the money, Google!

 

[Jeff-DSA]

$300 for an Roku and AppleTV Clone? No one can ever say apple is over priced again.

Apple is overpriced.

 

[3phemeral]

Woo! Smart apk updates, take that data plan! Basically updates only changed parts.

 

[bananas]

So is this their iMessage?

 

[Pctx]

…this is good.

...for Google.

Spoiler

Right???? RIGHT!?!?!?!? GUYS?!!?!?!?!?

 

[Technosteve]

delta updates, you hear that apple do that you fucks

 

[ThatObviousUser]

Delta updates will help a lot with game updates.

What a dumb remark. Are you serious?

Totarry Siri-us.

 

[mclaren777]

What's under that sheet?!

 

[pxleyes]

…this is good.

"Freedom" has different meaning, apparently.

Apple is overpriced.

LOL

 

[Divvy]

So is this their iMessage?

Google Talk is their iMessage. They just need to fold that into their 50 other messaging apps.

Get less shitty icons for your play apps google!

Then what is cloud messaging?

 

[VanWinkle]

What's under that sheet?!

Most likely something that has leaked already.

 

[giga]

So is this their iMessage?

No, it's a developer specific feature for sending data to their apps instead of through something like Dropbox.

 

[gcubed]

Google Play Movies becomes useful.. yay!

 

[Zeppu]

Then what is cloud messaging?

Dev stuff. Think of it as push notifications.

 

[Divvy]

Then what is cloud messaging?

I thought that was for developers to send messages through the cloud to their apps or something?

 

[lunarworks]

Encrypted apps... oh snap!

Pirates will find a way around it, but even so... this will make things interesting for the platform.

 

[ThatObviousUser]

Awesome, YouHulu.

 

[zbeeb]

I actually can't believe this, its like google got their shit together.

Just waiting on non-us confirmation! haha

 

[Tain]

omg, Project Butter. I'll stick with Android if that delivers.

 

[kehs]

Then what is cloud messaging?

Developers won't need their own servers to handle the messaging portion of the app.

 

[SRG01]

Then what is cloud messaging?

Cloud messaging is their system for push notifications.
