It must be a fake news .

GT-I9080 – Galaxy Grand
GT-I9082 – Galaxy Grand DUOS
GT-I8160 – Galaxy Ace 2
GT-I8190 – Galaxy S III mini

'GT-I8350 – Galaxy Beam'

'i8530 ' not 'i8350'

Galaxy Beam still at android 2.3.6 .and getting 4.2.2 is RIDICULOUS !!!!!

It'll be amazing if Samsung release android 4.2.2 for galaxy note 10.1 users before summer and it improves the good performance we can get for the quad core processor.

If you look at comments on Google code, you'll see that Bluetooth remains broken in 4.2.2. This is totally unawesome and Google seems unable or unwilling to fix their code.

Totally fixable issue. I'm currently using cm10.1 which is 4.2.2 and typing on a Bluetooth keyboard.

The BT issue is especially pervasive with any type of audio headsets (many can't establish any connection with audio BT), although some users are reporting that other BT devices will connect but then disconnect, requiring a reboot to be usable again. I hate to see what Android merged into Chrome will look like. Google's size may not really improve its products. Google is also terrible at interacting with its customers. So many times they never respond to bug reports on Google Code even if a multitude of users confirm its existence. They're morphing into a new version of MS.

I am begining to love the Nexus concept. It's where all the major bugs in Android get found, which make the system unusable for Nexus users - before Samsung release a fixed and tested version a few months later!

So much for the Google Android purists -LOL!

curious, I have bt working on my cheap ainol tablet running 4.2 (own build) audio no issues at all,
maybe its a chipset issue, got a link to the bleating (I mean google code bugreports?)

I think Google isn't adequately beta testing, asuming the Nexus aficionados who buy the devices for "native" Android are geeky enough to tolerate bugs. However, the Bluetooth bug has been draging on for 5 months and tempers are flairing, especially since Google isn't responding. Other manufacturers that are putting an interface on top of Google's code seem to be putting out better products at the moment.

they never do fix they code, hence the jellybean resource hog problem/ OTG problem.

You are on Jellybean 4.1.2 if you're on the updated sock ROM. Google put out an increnental update last fall with the Jelly Bean designation 4.2, this update has killed Bluetooth. Most Nexus device users, who are the consumers who've gotten this update are reporting that audio Bluetooth is completely dead and that other Bluetooth devices may connect briefly but then disconnect and the device must be rebooted. Google has been silent on this issue in the Google Code forums and 2 subsequent updates, 4.2.1 and 4.2.2 have not fixed it. Users in the Google Code forums are frustrated as this problem has existed for almost 5 months and Google is dead silent on the issue.

Also, Goog hasn't implemented BTLE, which means there's a TON of devices like Nike's FUEL band that can't be made to work with any Android device. Almost every Android device made since the middle of last year has a BT4+LE chipset but can't use it except by bringing in a third party library - and since there's different chipsets, it's a pain to support all the different devices - so no one supports any of them.

Wow, what a fail for Nexus.

What's the point of trading off immensely useful micro SD slot for useless pure android experience?

Speculation is that the strategy on dropping the micro sd is to ultimately drive more users to Google cloud storage (and ultimately fees for Google). Given the shift of responsibility for Android development to the manager for Chrome, tech publications see Google merging Android into Chrome. I suspect that it will be a mess. The big question is whether Google code writing and beta testing will improve. I'm not going to hold my breath.

Based on past experience on the time Sammy takes to update. Let me guess, our key lime pie will be ready in 2015?

    Samsung has not announced any specific dates for 4.2.2. In fact, they haven't even officially announced that updates will happen at all. This is based on one report on a techblog.

    So don't get yer knickers in a knot just yet.
