Because reasons.

JB update is bloody nice, faster, smoother and nice ui improvements

Haven't found the new google cards thing useful though lol

If JB is faster, wouldn't it be ideal for manufactures to roll it out to a lot more of the mid-range handsets instead of churning out models still running 2.3?

Going from 2.3 to 4.0 was a massive speed boost for me on my mid-range Huawei G300 and if JB is faster again I can only see gains to be made from Huawei to roll out 4.1

Yeah although the cost for the developers to do it doesn't make it worth their time

Look at the x5 handset (also known as u8800)

It has an ics port from the manufacturer and theres a stock ics rom called aurora made by a community modder, the aurora rom is infinitely better than the crap the company churned out. Generally unless you're using a high range phone the community roms are much better. Even for the top end handsets the community roms are generally better

I'm running samsung rom xxdlib (JB) with Siyah kernel and it's fantastic but i'll probably switch to Miui when I can be bothered. (On my s3)

Anyways, are you finding your JB roms make the screen scrolling more burdensome???...how do explain, after swiping the screen doesn't seem to scroll on as much as it used to on my ICS/GB/Froyo roms, wondering if there's a scroll setting i'm missing somewhere...

Maybe?

I have no issue, you could turn the screen sensitivity up though?

Oh yes it is way more responsive, perhaps as i'm using CM 10 i'm just not used to it, sense has a really nice scroll feel. Just upgraded fiances desire to ICS no JB availble for that yet, is an old phone by generations

Been running CM10 for a couple of days now and a few griefs; mainly the inability to change icons and the scrolling is too blunt. Needs MiUI customisations and sense scrolling. I see there are themes but they all suck and some even want you to pay for their ugliness that consists of a wallpaper and colour change but nothing actually worth a cent. Roll on ARHD JB...

The basic messanger works well but the layout isn't spaced and nice, is handscent the best downloadable free sms app?

I really dislike cm, it is functional but the aesthetics are terrible. MIUI tbh

GO sms is pretty good, I just use stock
