Jelly Bean is coming - What Android devices will be updated?

We waited only the release of source code in order to definitively welcome to Android Jelly Bean. In a few days will begin on Roll Out the Nexus range that will see the first new Android distribution. Then comes the turn of the community that is already working to update the device with the highest number of Cyanogen and AOKP Team in the lead, followed by Team MIUI. So will be the turn of the producers that will update some of the devices to the latest version. It will take time, both unofficial ROMs to see fully functional, is to see the first update from the houses. In light of this, what are the devices that will see the Android update officially Jelly bean?

These are the main products and the odds of being updated. The most likely have updates more or less certain that, in the absence of official communications, can only be imagined.Difficult, however, think that these products are upgraded, there would be no real excuse.The devices are likely to support the full Jelly Bean, but that due to personalization, price ranges and corporate policies could be set aside. I of course have remained difficult to think with Android 4.1.

Remains the resource of the community that will support a huge number of devices that do not officially pass to Android Jelly Bean!

Rumor: Android Key Lime Pie will be the successor of the still unannounced Jelly Bean

According to a source considered reliable enough new rumors apeared about the next Android distribution, " Key Lime Pie "that Google would be the nomenclature used to identify the successor of Jelly Bean , the next to Ice Cream Sandwich not yet announced.

Despite missing a few more months to the presentation of the next version of Android (Jelly Bean), of which we do not know even if it observes the above tables of signature updates past given the intention of Google to slow their deployment process to better focus on functionality and features to implement, there is already talk of Android 6.0. 

The nickname of Key Lime Pie identifies precisely fresh and tasty cake of American origin, confirming the choice of names curious about you by Google. Obviously this is speculation, curiosity, or at least until the news that next year will hardly find any further confirmation.

Google patented a new system to unlock Android devices

Apple continues with its causes on the  slide-to-unlock? Google was quick to act and patented his own method of release: it has finally decided to challenge the Cupertino company on its own ground? It speaks of course that of the "hunting patents", as regards the rest of the challenge is open for a long time as is well known.

The patent, registered under the name " Locked to Input Device Computing", echoes some of the features seen in the lockscreen HTC Sense 3, in which you can not only activate the smartphone but also  drag the icon  to start directly ' corresponding application or use of  shortcuts  to call at a specific flight or send a text message.

Basically the patent on a method of release that gives direct access to the main functions of the phone, bypassing the now famous "Slide To Unlock". The lockscreen becomes a dynamic and responsive, with the shortcut to go directly to functions such as calls or messages with a single action.

Impossible at this point to think that the next version of Android ( Jelly Bean ) does not provide this kind of evolved lockscreen.
