As we all know Google officially launched Android 4.2 on Monday the 29th of October, they updated the Android.com Website but there is no ETA for a Android 4.2 Update or Source Release on any of there Sites.
So if there is any you know, post here in this Thread to keep the Forums tidy! :good:
Android 4.2 will be released to AOSP and begin OTA rollout to current devices when the Nexus 4 ships or shortly thereafter.

Lol.
a Google search could have found your answer Very Quickly.. Guys play nice..
It will come after the Launch of nov 13th... The announcement was 29th not the launch day. GO read the 29th announcement and read when the new phones will be out..
I have to say this forum is getting full of Common knowledge threads and post..
I dont know... a lot of people here just posting that this is thread is going to be closed but
1.) I cant see any other 4.2 Thread
2.) Why are you posting such garbage in this thread? What belongs in this Thread is only Informations about the 4.2 Update
So please!

Thanks to you both for a bit of polite sanity. I think it's great when folks get excited, some may ask obvious, and sometimes slightly pointless questions. But to become the master of the universe, and declare a thread should be shut down, is plain childish.
The only lesson worth learning if you are an ANDROID user is. Buy a NEXUS device. At least then you have a reasonably good chance of getting a timely update. So spare a thought for the folks who don't own a NEXUS device. LG Optimus 2X users (The world's first dual-core phone), are still running Ginger Bread. yikes.
Have fun. Anil

Nexus 7 will get 4.2 between 12-14. And I am sure we will get source of 4.2 on 11th.
Google's Nexus 7 page says the n7 comes with 4.2. Obviously this isn't true and they jumped the gun, but this means it's coming... very soon!
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app
4.2 will probably hit AOSP next week, before or around the release of the Nexus 4, custom ROMs will appear a day or two after and OTA for the factory image will be release a few weeks later.

To be fair you'll probably find if you order one from Google now it will ship with 4.2 on it, but if you buy one from a shop it obviously won't.

No, if you order it from google it still ships with 4.1.2
Has anyone gotten confirmation on when the 3G model will be released? Also, will it be released in stores or just Play Store?
I've read at many sites that it should be out on 11/13, but those sites also said the end of October a month ago. I also read a T-Mobile internal document that said there will be a 'T-Mobile SIM included' version, but that's going to be available only on Play Store. Another site said it will only be available with an AT&T SIM.
So.....a lot of conflicting information. I hope to pick up one a Sams Club on 11/13, but am not sure if that's going to happen.

I have heard this rumor too (e.g. at gsmarena), however being that there wasn't so many updates since, I think it might be just a rumor.
There was this rumour making the rounds a while ago that the White N4, along with 4.3 was due to be announced on June 10. And that the white ones will be the first to ship with 4.3
Maybe the 4.3 will be released tomorrow, who knows, the point with that can bee the release of a new iOS 7 from Apple, lets see..its comes sooner or later

I expect nothing, so all that comes is wellcome. And for those that ask where this rumour comes from, it comes from a Android&Me "reliable source". He was the one that said that a white nexus was coming on July 10th, and indeed he had one before anyone.
http://www.androidpolice.com/2013/0...me-said-to-launch-june-10th-with-android-4-3/
There's also the Reuters leak about a Nexus 7 successor coming on July, that could be ship android 4.3 so who knows.
http://www.theverge.com/2013/4/3/4177664/nexus-7-tablet-successor-in-july-reuters
And more recently, those HTC T6 (phablet) that supposedly will arrive with "next version of android KLP" and a Snapdragon 800 chipset.
The only thing that will happen tonight for sure is the season finale of Game of Thrones.
i can confirm that 4.3 should be released tomorrow. i finished fixing some bugs AOSP devs made, and pushed the final version to Google today. they should start rolling the OTA by tomorrow :good:

While looking at this website: http://www.android.com/kitkat/index.html I found this:
Could this mean Google is tackling their fragmentation? If so, would 4.4 come out to ALL devices ? Also to 4x HD ? Would LG skip 4.2.2 / 4.3 and update to 4.4 ? love to hear your thoughts and opinions about this. Off topic posts welcome too
No no no no no no no and, finally, NO :banghead:
Em.. we're talking about LG They've abandoned our phone and they also have a bad reputation about updates. We didn't even get 4.2.2 and won't get anything new that will come out. I personally don't care.. we have GREAT devs that are keeping our phones updated to the latest versions of Android! Because of them, our phone won't die soon! It's really a shame for LG because Optimus 4X is a hell of a phone with good hardware and everything!
Android 4.4 is nothing more than a marketing operation. I do not think that this update will add a lot of new feature to our phone. I guess it is a minor update just like 4.3 or even less.
Why should we count on LG now ?
We have the official support of the CM team, PAC team, MIUI team. We have a lot if great devs who ported ALL the best ROMs for our phone.
If Android 4.4 is released we will get it with cm10.3 (maybe ?) So do not think about LG anymore since we do not need LG.
Anyway to come back to the discussion, I believe that this update won't be that important. However I'm impatiently waiting for Android 5.0 (if there is no 4.5 before...) because I think that this will be a great and important update, just like 2.3 to 4.0.x :thumbup:

Indeed it is relative, but I don't agree on Broadcom being the worst. The BlueDroid stack to which Google swapped BlueZ in Android 4.2 is now under the Apache license. It was a commercial project before. LG and nVidia doesn't provide anything, just what they have to (i.e. the Kernel).

you're right, BUT
as the N7 also has tegra 3 and some other same HW, we are able to "borrow" some blobs, drivers and co
best example is OptimusPlay
yeah, we're lucky we have nexus device with similar architecture. it should keep our device going for atleast a year longer than it would've been without it, i reckon.

I read several things about the fragmentation. Google is "sorting" out the android source. It will consist of several parts to make it easier to port devices.
I also read something about visible updates for any device. For example Google Now on Gingerbread without Project Butter.

I wouldn't exactly call it old, aging maybe. But you're right: Wild guesses don't help anyone. Our phone is not getting an update through LG though, that's for certain. Manufacturers just don't care enough about their "aging" products.

All I found was Dev Preview threads. Instead of digging through 100s of pages; thought we can discuss the clean build once we start getting it. Would be great to see when it actually starts rolling out and what difference / updates there are compared to the DP.

Do you think tha we get the update today for N5???
I read that the update will arrive for WiFi Nexus 7 and after some week for others devices..
Here is what Android Geeks are saying. Seems to be inline with other updates. Here's hoping we get it sooner than later!

Hi there.
The source in the Android Geeks story is the message Google sent to developers recently saying Android 5 will be released to consumers on Nov 3. What that means in reality is anyone's guess.
I'm in London UK with a Nexus 5 waiting for the OTA update too. Hoping it's today but certainly not holding my breath.
When anyone gets it please post here to keep us updated!

Google supports their Nexus phones for 3 years after release. So yes, it will be supported. It likely will be released over the summer if not sooner.

According to Google's support policy, devices receive two years of support from their release date. The Nexus 6 won't hit two years until November 2016. So yes, the Nexus 6 should get Android 7.0. It should also receive Android 7.0 security updates for some time afterward.
Fortunately, these are Nexus devices. Custom ROM support should keep them going for much longer.
EDIT: @mikeprius beat me to it. LOL.
I made a mistake. It's 2 years for software updates, but 3 years for security updates.
My money's on yes
obvious answer is yes.. nexus 6 is still very capable.. probably until P..
