Android 4.1 in AOSP

[Jean-Baptiste Queru]

We're releasing Android 4.1 in AOSP today.

The name of the tagged release is android-4.1.1_r1.

The name of the development branch is jb-dev.

We recommend that you create new clients, even if you're working in
the master branch. It'll make your clients smaller and faster to sync.

Proprietary binaries are available for Nexus 7 and Galaxy Nexus. Nexus
S and Xoom will follow.

JBQ, on behalf of the entire Android team at Google.

Congratulations to all the Android Team! :)

btw, any info on OTAs for supported devices? (Nexus S, Galaxy Nexus and Xoom) 

[Jean-Baptiste Queru]

On this list, there are no ETAs for OTAs, sorry.

No problem... Silly question anyway :X 

[Jean-Baptiste Queru]

From my Open Source seat, I don't have any direct involvement in
individual retail updates, so I really can't provide any information
about updates to devices.

Thanks for understanding,
JBQ

Following our usual practice, factory images will follow soon after
the matching OTAs to consumer devices.

[Mathew Says IdareYou]

That means jb-devs will be updated more oftenly than android-4.1.1_j1?

[Jean-Baptiste Queru]

I expect that jb-dev will receive very frequent updates in the CTS project.

JBQ

[Jeremy Schulte]

Will you give us the heads up as to when it is safe to sync?

[Jean-Baptiste Queru]

I will - there are some small replication delays.

JBQ

[Jean-Baptiste Queru]

Full replication takes about 2 hours, and we're about half-way through.

6pm PDT seems like a safe bet.

[Jean-Baptiste Queru]

I'll make sure to update the kernels trees as necessary. The changes
from the preview should be very minimal, though.

[Jean-Baptiste Queru]

Yes, sorry I should have been more clear. This includes GSM and CDMA
models of Nexus S.

Thank you sir!

[Chandra Gopalaiah]

Hi JBQ,

Where can download the binaries for Galaxy Nexus?

Thanks,

Chandra

[Jean-Baptiste Queru]

Binaries are available at their usual location
https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/drivers

JBQ

[Jean-Baptiste Queru]

The plan for Nexus S and Xoom binaries is to approximately match the
timing of the consumer release.

[Jean-Baptiste Queru]

Yes, in this case, it means "the OTAs".

I'm used to saying "consumer release" as it covers both the case of
OTAs and of devices being sold in stores.

You've got sharp eyes :)

We've been making progress on toro indeed, and we can now distribute
Invensense's proprietary binaries.

[Jean-Baptiste Queru]

I have no control over and no information about the OTA itself.
Factory images will be released after the OTA, as usual.

As for AOSP on the VZW Galaxy Nexus, it essentially matches the GSM version now.

[Jean-Baptiste Queru]

As far as AOSP is concerned, I only deal in toro (i.e. mysid builds)
and maguro (i.e. yakju and takju builds).

Hi JBQ,

Slightly off topic: What is tentative date of release of Platform
Development Kit?

I don't know the release dates for the PDK, sorry.

[Jean-Baptiste Queru]

I don't consider toro to be higher than "experimental" at this point.

[Jean-Baptiste Queru]

It's always been possible to create custom builds for the VZW Galaxy
Nexus (we've always distributed all the files we could), but from this
point you can expect that they'll be easier to develop and that
they'll work better in Jelly Bean than they did in Ice Cream Sandwich.

[Jean-Baptiste Queru]

As far as toroplus, the situation is unchanged: there are no plans to
support it as a target device for custom AOSP builds.

There's no AOSP support for new devices other than Nexus 7. Anything
beyond that is up to individual OEMs.

That's fundamentally a question for the carriers and OEMs who support
those devices, so I can't answer it, sorry.
