Crafty hackers on the forums overs at XDA-Developers have shown just what patience and hard work can accomplish. SoCal Devs on Thursday released a working Jelly Bean ROM for Google’s first Android smartphone, the T-Mobile G1.
The OS is a bit slow on the old software and a bunch of features had to be omitted, but Wi-Fi and the touchscreen are working, as is Google Now — partially at least. Screen rotation and cellular data are not yet functioning. The G1 is equipped with a 528MHz processor, 256MB of internal storage and only 192MB of RAM, so the handset’s hardware falls very short of Jelly Bean’s minimum requirements, making the port that much more remarkable.
