When will Micromax Funbook Tablet get Jelly Bean

Is Jelly Bean Update Due for Micromax Funbook P300?

Micromax Funbook P300 is a 7 inch tablet that runs on Android 4.0.3 Ice Cream Sandwich. This is one of the most affordable tablets as available in today’s times. This fun and educational tablet is priced at around Rs 6500-7000 in India.  Other features of Micromax Funbook tablet include 1.22 GHz processor, 0.3 MP VGA front camera, 4 GB internal memory, expandable up to 32GB and many other useful specs.

Micromax Funbook tablet has become so much popular among techno geeks and developers that there are many developers dedicated for custom ROM development in this field. This is an additional benefit that users can fetch. Like some days back we have already made a detailed mention about Cyanbook ROM for Micromax Funbook P300 right here: http://www.androidust.com/cyanbook-v0-3-rom-for-micromax-funbook-p300/.

Many users are asking us that whether there are any chances that Jelly Bean would come up for Micromax Funbook anytime soon? We hope, you know what Jelly Bean is? Jelly Bean is the latest Android platform with version number 4.1. Only Google Nexus has this as of now. In Mid-July Google is planning to launch this operating system. But as you now developers start coming up with their own developments quickly and thus there are many Jelly Bean ROMs available as of now for various phones like Samsung Galaxy S, Samsung Galaxy S2, Samsung Galaxy S3, and HTC One X. But till now we did not find any Jelly Bean ROM for Micromax Funbook. It is our earnest request to leading developers (we hope Ninad Chaudhari is listening) that some amazing ROM should be developed for Micromax Funbook P300. We really hope that Jelly Bean 4.1 ROM for Funbook is floated soon at XDA or at Androidforum. All the best developers!

Well, there’s one more hope here. Since Micromax Funbook runs on ICS 4.0 there is a hope that if the compatibility issues do not occur then Micromax Funbook can get Jelly Bean update in future. And when this happens, believe us users would have an improved user interface, some positive changes in home screen and a smoother buttery experience. Micromax has not announced anything on this till now. But if the company wants to stay into competition then it should take certain bold and strategic steps likeflashing official Jelly Bean on Micromax Funbook in future. Right now, we can only wait and watch.

We would love to get feedback from Micromax Funbook users in this regards. What you guys think? Kindly let us know. Share your views right here via comments.

When will Mobile Makers along with Sony Roll Jelly Bean Update

Today is a big Jelly Bean day and thus we are still posting details about Jelly Bean and providing our readers with all the possible details about the new Android platform. Google Nexus 7 will be the first tablet to run this device. However soon after this there are many other Android devices in the line to receive this amazing and delicious update. Google has already made an official announcement that Nexus S, Motorola Xoom and Galaxy Nexus will receive an official Jelly Bean 4.1 update in July. But Jelly Bean ROMs have already started coming up via developers.

Now, when will the biggies like Samsung, Motorola and Sony roll Jelly Bean update is something we can only speculate and anticipate at this point in time. We can not confirm the same.

In the words of Samsung, “In the case that a new version of an Android operating system is publicly announced and released, Samsung will review the possibility of implementation to existing Samsung products with the Android operating system (‘Update’).”Such a review will be based on various factors including, the overall effect of the update to Samsung products, the system requirements, the structural limitations, and the level of cooperation from the component suppliers and the software licensors.” If Samsung decides to make the update available to the users it will be released upon successful completion of development.” What we understand from this statement is, Jelly Bean update for Samsung phones is somewhere on the road map of Samsung. But when it will be is still the question. Reminding you again that Android 4.1 Jelly Bean would be rolled on for Nexus S and Galaxy Nexus in the mid-July.

As far as mobile makers like Sony is concerned, there is no official statement from the company. But looking into the way Sony handles such developments, we estimate that there is still some more time Sony phone users will have to wait. Just a few days back we witnessed ICS update on Xperia phones. So Jelly Bean for Sony phones is still a long way.

HTC is still not in mood of making any statement on this. Even though HTC claimed that Google’s step of unveiling Jelly Bean 4.1 is quite appreciable.

Motorola’s plans for Jelly Bean update are yet under the wraps. The only fact we know is Google has made an official announcement that Jelly Bean will be released for Xoom tablet in mid-July.

LG has plans to provide Jelly Bean update for all 2012 LG phones. This was a promise LG had made in February and now we have no choice but to wait and watch.

We will surely provide you more updates on this as and when we get the same. So just stay tuned and also provide your feedback on this.
