CrazyZeb Posted November 15, 2012 Share Posted November 15, 2012 I thought the last update was great (wanted a swype keyboard), I love having a Nexus device and getting things first. My phone has never gotten an update in 2 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Jelly Bean launcher will just give your phone the look of the Jelly Bean OS. And you'll need a Launcher like Tesla, GOEx or something like those for it to work.

I_Bleed_B&G Posted November 15, 2012 Share Posted November 15, 2012 Actually it is available for the S3 if you have Sprint. I've had it for a couple weeks now on Sprint. They were the first carrier to get Jelly Bean for the S3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tulane Skins Fan Posted December 16, 2012 Share Posted December 16, 2012 I figured I'd put this in here, even though I am asking about a jelly bean phone, but... I'm really into the Google Now feature, but am wondering how I can make it work even better. I don't understand if I need to add cards to it, or if they will just show up at some point when something happens that warrants one. Also, do I need to sync my google calendar with my outlook (main) calendar or will google now pull from my calendar so long as it my phone syncs with it?

Thanks man! If you're hot on the iPhone go for it. Its easy to use and it works. If you want an advanced phone that does more and gives you more power out of your phone, so that you can take advantage of new technology, pick one of the android phones. As far as windows phones, I don't have one but some of them are intriguing. Personally, I'd go windows before I bought an iPhone now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MisterPinstripe Posted March 26, 2013 Share Posted March 26, 2013 4.1 was Jelly Bean. 4.2 is still Jelly Bean but with more features and refresh. I was having horrible issues with my GPS with my Galaxy Nexus. None of the "fixes" worked. Got the update this morning, and GPS is fixed and working great. I like it so far, interface is a little different at the lock screen, but not bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
