Newer devices such as the HTC One X, Samsung Galaxy S3 and the Samsung Galaxy Note that have early Android 4.1 Jelly Bean builds of CyanogenMod 10 have all been spotted in the past, and this leads us to the question – how does Jelly Bean hold up in a device which is one generation behind, such as the Samsung Galaxy 2? Well, you can find out further in the video above. It is said that South Korean consumer electronics giant Samsung has plans to include the Galaxy S2 under the wings of Jelly Bean, although there is no concrete release date just yet. For those who are a tad impatient, here is word that you can already run a custom ROM of CyanogenMod 10 on your rooted Samsung Galaxy S2, with Android 4.1 Jelly Bean in tow.
It is said that majority of the Galaxy S2′s functions will work just fine, although there are some issues that users have run into such as the possibility of a random reboot, but it is more or less a close shadow of what the final and official version would be like.

The MIPS-based tablet that runs on the Android 4.1 Jelly Bean operating system platform from Karbonn Mobiles is said to have started shipping, and its claim to fame? The lowest cost tablet in its class in the market has begun to ship – in India, of course, and after whipping out our trusty calculators, we have arrived at the final converted price point of approximately $125, which is pretty darn cheap when you think about it – not to mention having it run on the latest version of the Android operating system!

If you have a tablet at home that is shared between members of the family, you probably wish that there were multiple user accounts so that when the user logs in, apps, settings, bookmarks and etc would be loaded specifically for that user. This would probably put an end to a frustrations felt by many who wondered who deleted this app, or who moved their bookmarks and so forth. Well if you love the idea of multiple user accounts on Android, you might be interested to learn that thanks to the folks over at Android Police who have done some very extensive digging and investigation, it seems that there is a framework in place in Android 4.1 Jelly Bean that would suggest that multiple user accounts could be coming in the future.
Good news for folks who use custom ROMs on their Galaxy Note. CyanogenMod 10 is now available for your phablet and is waiting to be loaded. While it’s only a preview version of the final ROM, it is said to be faster than Ice Cream Sandwich ROMs for the device (if you run stock ICS on the device you probably understand how it feels). However, it’s not without its faults. According to PocketNow who gave the ROM a shot, it lags when going into the app tray, opening folders and when browsing the web, so the less adventurous folks might not want to give it a go just yet.
You can say that the race is definitely on – with different tablet manufacturers working hard to release the Android 4.1 Jelly Bean update for their respective pieces of hardware. We do know that Acer did roll out a quartet of new tablets this year – including the Iconia Tab A200 that we see above, the Iconia Tab 110, the Iconia Tab 510, and the Iconia Tab 700 that sports a Full HD display. The thing is, they all do not come with the Android 4.1 Jelly Bean update, but rather, run on the Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich operating system. Needless to say, some of the customers do expect some Android 4.1 Jelly Bean goodness to come their way, and Dutch website Tablet Guide reported that Acer has already confirmed that the Android 4.1 Jelly Bean update is coming. No exact model names were given, and neither was there any timeframe revealed either. Hopefully something official will be released from the horse’s mouth in due time, and we just cannot wait.
The Dell Streak 7 might be a piece of hardware which has been discontinued despite being launched early last year, making it relatively short lived. It must be said that the Dell Streak 7 is one of the first tablets in the world to feature the NVIDIA Tegra 2 dual-core processor, accompanied by a low resolution 800 x 480 resolution display and Android 2.2 Froyo, which was pretty backward then when Android 3.0 Honeycomb with higher resolution displays on tablets were all the rage. Glad to know that there is a community out there who do not mind developing custom ROMs for Dell Streak 7 despite it being discontinued, and here we are with Android 4.1 Jelly Bean being made available – unofficially speaking, of course, for the Dell Streak 7.
If you own a Sony Xperia phone from the year 2011, it looks like you won’t be receiving the latest version of Android – at least through official channels. According to reports online, Sony UK has mentioned on its 
Adobe called it quits on Flash for mobile devices in fall last year, and htis happened before Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich was released. Well, Adobe knows that you cannot simply ask folks to quit things cold turkey, so they gave users time to acclimatize to the lack of Flash, and has also extended this grace period of official support to Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich. Several minor bugfixes and security updates were introduces in between, but upon news of Google rolling out Android 4.1 Jelly Bean, Adobe has officially announced that they will no longer support Flash on the mobile platform with Jelly Bean around.
