Updated manually last Friday when the official OTA came out. It feels a bit faster, but it seems that not all the the supposed features in JB are there.

Unless I’m doing something wrong, the voice dictation feature still needs a data connection, and there’s still no face unlock.

There are also some bugs — the CRT screen animations disappeared. On occasion the launcher just slows down to a crawl, until the phone is rebooted.

Haven’t played around with Google Now yet.

Hi guys,

We’re having some trouble with the hyperlinks, anyway the rooting instructions for the Nexus S can be found here: http://dottech.org/android/root-android/25412/how-to-root-nexus-s/

You guys can download the Jellybean firmware through: http://www.randomphantasmagoria.com/firmware/nexus-s/

Did it went well ? Any differences from ICS on the performance of the device ? :)
