Reports are rolling in from around the web that the Android 4.2.2 update is rolling out to the GSM Galaxy Nexus handset and both the Nexus 7 and Nexus 10 tablets. The first reports sprang up on Reddit, and were followed closely by posts on Google+ and Twitter. Nothing official has been said about the update, but all signs point to the update popping up on your device soon.
According to users on Reddit who say they’ve received the update, the problem with Bluetooth audio streaming has been corrected somewhat, although it is being reported as still having occasional issues. One user reported that after updating, the Bluetooth still disconnects when the network changes from wifi to the mobile data network.
Per the screenshots Android Police has up, the update is build number JDQ39, and is 47.6MB. Users are receiving the update over the air, although many still haven’t had it arrive yet. Still, screenshots have cropped up showing the update on the GSM Galaxy Nexus, the Nexus 7 tablet, and the Nexus 10 tablet, so users with one or more of those devices will likely see the update within the next day or so.
Not much else is known at the moment, since nothing official has been posted. According to the system update screen that users have seen, the 4.2.2 update is said to improve “performance and stability.” Users can set up their own accounts on the devices for customizability, and there’s Gesture Typing for typing words by sliding one’s finger across the keys.

However when I decided to trade in my Blackberry Bold 9900 which was used for less than half a year, the price I got for it was equivalent to the iPhone 3GS despite it being much newer and being in much, much better condition. Given the popularity of Apple’s iPhone devices, we guess some customers are willing to own an old and battered up iPhone for the sake of it, and interestingly according to the folks at popular trade in website, Gazelle, it seems that the value of a broken iPhone 4S with a completely shattered display is worth as much, if not slightly more, than an almost-mint condition Samsung Galaxy S2 or Galaxy Nexus. This is pretty interesting considering that all three phones were released in 2011, not to mention that the buyer will probably need to fork out even more money to get the phone fixed up, but we guess this just goes to show the lengths and the price some people are willing to pay to own an Apple iOS device (think the selling of 
Google’s range of Galaxy devices tend to be first in line whenever there are any new versions of their Android operating systems released. Well, we are glad to say that Android 4.2 Jelly Bean for the Galaxy Nexus is available over at XDA-Developers, where it also matches up with reports received from users to date who have already received the Jelly Bean update over the air.
