The two high-end Samsung terminals are already on the rails of Android 4.1 Jelly Bean, as well as some of its latest terminals presented. In total, there are three teams that already enjoy Google's penultimate operating system, namely: the Samsung Galaxy S3, Samsung Galaxy Note 2 and Samsung Galaxy S3 Mini. The Samsung Galaxy Note has already been seen with an unofficial Jelly Bean ROM, and now it's the turn of the Samsung Galaxy S2. This team is expected to receive this edition of the platform during the first quarter of 2013, although the most impatient already have the possibility of downloading a trial version with which to check how it looks in the high range of last year.
The specific edition that will come to the Samsung Galaxy S2 will be Android 4.1.2, encoded in this terminal as the I9100XXLSJ. It seems to be a stable copy, although it is not without some errors, since we are not yet facing the final version that would reach the Samsung Galaxy S2 through the OTA system and Samsung Kies. That is why whoever dares to install it through the ODIN wizard should bear in mind that the backup copy prior to its installation is almost mandatory, and that the process is linked to their entire responsibility.
One of the great attractions that would come from the hand of the Android 4.1.2 Jelly Bean update for the Samsung Galaxy S2 would be the possibility of importing some of the interesting features that were released in the Samsung Galaxy S3 and that were later seen in the Samsung Galaxy Note 2. We are talking about the suite of applications that make this smartphone even smarter. For example, after installing the aforementioned version of the Google system, we can enjoy the Direct Call function, with which the Samsung Galaxy S2 will identify that, while writing an SMS"" In case we still write SMS messages "", we have changed our mind and have chosen to call that contact.
The Pop Up Play system will also arrive, an addition to the video player that allows launching a floating window during viewing, so that while we execute any other task with the Samsung Galaxy S2, the video continues to be seen in the foreground in a frame of size customizable. It would also add to the functions of the Samsung Galaxy S2 the AllShare Play wireless playback system, an evolution of the peculiar way in which Samsung understands the DLNA standard. Likewise, there would be no lack of storage and communication service in the house's cloud, called S Cloud.
Finally, since it is the Android 4.1 version, the Samsung Galaxy S2 would also have after the update with some of the improvements integrated into the operating system, such as functional additions to the notification bar, a new version of the native interface from Samsung, TouchWiz or the means of personalized searches integrated with the rest of the components of the platform, Google Now.
