Update to Jelly Bean or not? - LG Optimus 4X HD

I want to buy a new phone and also the newest android version on it.
If I buy the 4x hd, should I upgrade it to jb? I read in many forums, that there are many cons..

Do NOT upgrade to JB V20a/b under any circumstances! Heating is terrible, battery life almost the same or worse in stand by, few tweaks that are good but nothing worth upgrading. Better upgrade to CM, it should be completed soon.

Used jb for 1day back to ics.

still use stock jb rom (20A) with iodak kernel, and I think for the time being it's the best combination for me

Get Jelly bean, root it and remove bloatware. This way you get the best performance and some nice features from jelly bean update. CM is buggy currently and removing bloatware in Jelly bean is the best experience you can get from this phone, that is if you want to root. if not, you are better off in ICS.
I have not used my phone long enough to know whether ICS was better than V20a. I updated immediately. Going back from JB to ICS is a sore, but I am going test ICS again after a month.

I'm not to sue about the ui it looks a little to much like the Motorola Razr that I once had.

A very confusing post, what has it to do with the title?
Anyway, all I can say is that I am extremely happy with JB and would not dream of going back to ICS

Its an option now, not a default one.
You need to change it in camera settings under "Quick Launch"

I'm an advocate for the best rom, so:
Don't use ICS... simple as that... It uses way too much memory, and although the rom is FASTER than any GB rom, it scores close to 2800-2900 in Antutu, compared to 2500-2600 for stock GB, the speed advantage dissapears very fast when the RAM is full (usually you work with 100 -90 MB) and the constant swapping makes the device unusable... you could get away for some time by using a cleaned (custom) rom, but... it's more of the same actually!
I tried custom kernels, some custom roms, but are all the same, recovery is a pain in the ass to get it installed so... yeah... don't use it or wait for 30D, maybe it's better!
As you are new to the device, my advice is better grounded by the fact that ICS is more strict security wise and you could get a brick in more ways than GB, if you update to stock ICS, and install a recovery, you get a brick and so on... try to know the device or read very very well before flashing a ICS rom, or better use only nandroid backups that you flash from your custom recovery...

When an official jelly bean rom for the s plus?

Where o when to get the official jelly bean, not a beta or alpha?

There won't be any official release for our device. Samsung stopped supporting our device long time ago.. Actually we don't need anyone when we have numerous choices of wonderful custom ROMs available for us which is far better than any official release..

There is no official jellybean for S plus from samsung. If you want the best jb experience you can use cm10 or cm10.1 You can find in development thread.
NEVER.. but as you can see we already have wonderful roms
That's what i mean, official i mean with play store, stable and fast, and off course cooked. I only find alpha roms and unstable. Please help, thanks

All the 4.2.2 ROMs Are almost stable. Especially the cm10.1. Its on RC5 now. So how could you say its in alpha..??:laugh:
Hey, if there would be any custom ROM wich is in alpha status, it would be much better than any official Samsung stockrom. In our devsection we have the best devs you could ever have. From Samsung you would have one official Jelly Bean ROM. From our devs you can have more then 15 stable JB-ROMs. Just try some and enjoy.:laugh:

I know, thats why i only use our great customroms. It's better to have a full stable custom JB, than a slow buggy stock GB full of bloatware. Fact is, Samsung will never ever release an official JB for our phone.
I have tried TigerROM, Ehndroix III and Cyanogenmod 10.1 and all went PERFECT

to be honest i don't see the point getting CM10.x and wanting all the stock stuff....
maby you could try a different kernel like iodak/werewolf on your stock rom. To get a lot of settings done on the cpu/gpu side.
it will improve your batterylife and preformance in my opinion and still having all the "great" options from stock.
just my 2 cents.
Wim
Now that i think, you are totally right, it havnt any point change to aosp like CM, and conserv stock stuff.. What i want to, is to have a better rom, improve the battery, something smother and diferent, Than my Phone go faster that it can, conserving those kind of stuff that i mentioned before. You recomend me to install a diferent kernel? On a OS stock 4.1.2? How can i do that? Or if you know a rom with all The caracteristics that i want to, but whit The versión 4.2.2 o if is 4.1.2 be something that you can say: WOW i love it *-* Jaja.

cmon dude this is not a sure list...well hope for the best...feel lonely with jellybean
I don't get it
I've had 4.1.2 (official DBT version, international note, running straight talk) and it, without a doubt has been one of, if not the
most stable OS's I've ever used. I can go for weeks without a reboot.
What I don't understand, and I'm not trying to stir a debate, but what is it with the need, other than to take advantage of a new
app that won't run on something lower than 4.3, why bother updating to 4.4? Does it bring a new level of functionality or
features that isn't on the older version? Does your device not function now?
Other than a custom kernel to get around a potential EMMC brick problem, and rooted, this device I use is stock and flies!
I wish we her touch wiz KitKat ROM from Samsung
