Googler debunks the new Nexus program and Android 4.2 rumors with "LOL", source apologizes

0. phoneArena posted on 08 Oct 2012, 03:14

It was a sweet rumor while it lasted, which, of course, doesn't preclude us seeing an LG Optimus G Nexus soon with an updated Android 4.2 onboard, it's just that the scope of the Nexus overhaul might be less ambitious than what we hoped for. We'll know more when Andy Rubin takes the stages at the AllThingD: conference later this month to talk about Nexus-y stuff...

Am still hopeful to see something exciting....

No need to hope - Google always announces exciting things.. Unlike another company I can think of. :)

There's another company?

I do vaguely remember seeing a few people at the local Starbucks talking about some other brand. I didn't really pay much attention to it because they were talking about "revolutionary" features I've known about for years now. Lol. Joking aside, I too am looking forward to the month of November.

Yeah, bummer. No innovations for today.

still patiently waiting for my next nexus device

All he said was "Reading rumor sites.... LOL"

How is that debunking anything? There are plenty of unreliable rumor sites out their with ridiculous information on them.

I'm not indicating whether these rumors are true or not, but I don't see how his statement debunks anything.

You're right, the comment was just a comment - it's obvious what he was talking about but it wasn't the debunking.

The debunking was exposed by the hoaxer here:http://www.androidpolice.com/2012/10/07/the-android-police-week-in-review-the-biggest-android-stories-of-the-week-93012-10712/#comment-675183270

whenever i read a comment like this I just assume it was posted 3 years ago.

18. SonyXperiaNexus posted on 08 Oct 2012, 09:17 2

for me, the number of dislikes usually means the comment is bogus and retarded

12. InspectorGadget80 posted on 08 Oct 2012, 07:39 1

Im still excited to see the ne nexus! Just hope they put put it on every carrier with STOCK JELLYBEAN & hopefully a SD CARD

14. PhoneArenaUser posted on 08 Oct 2012, 07:47 1

Micro SD card slot or at least 64GB internal space. :)

15. 90ninjas posted on 08 Oct 2012, 08:44 1

Does anyone else realize how dumb of a name LG Optimus G Nexus is?

17. SonyXperiaNexus posted on 08 Oct 2012, 09:13 1

didnt uptil now. your comment did make me think about it a little. it would sound better as LG Optimus nexus G

16. SonyXperiaNexus posted on 08 Oct 2012, 09:09 1

please dont let xperia nexus be a rumor.

20. XPERIA-KNIGHT posted on 08 Oct 2012, 11:21

jus hoping sony, htc, or moto can pull it off, either one of those would be a success

21. yoyo93 posted on 08 Oct 2012, 11:43

A Sony Nexus device would be a dream come true for me.

22. 14545 posted on 08 Oct 2012, 12:00

All I really want are multiple brands with a Nexus. And a SD card slot and Removable battery.

23. Jericho posted on 08 Oct 2012, 12:13

Where's the MIZ!!!!!

24. deathgod posted on 08 Oct 2012, 16:02

The customization center is one rumor they should turn into reality. Personally, I'm hoping they wait to debut a new nexus device with the A15 cores, seeing as how I think thats what phones next year are gonna be gravitating towards.

25. imkyle posted on 08 Oct 2012, 16:42

Don't forget. Google also said that they were not making a sequel to the Nexus S back in 2011 and 6 months later we have the Galaxy Nexus.
