Android 4.2 Jelly Bean binaries added to AOSP

Android 42 Jelly Bean binaries added to AOSP

Good news for fans of Android alternatives: Google's just added binaries for Jelly Bean 4.2 to AOSP. Up until now, only the Nexus 10 and Nexus 4 had been privy to the company's latest OS version bump, but with the presence of these files on its developer portal and updates leaking out early, custom ROMs are just now a stone's skip away. Curiously, Mountain View has omitted the Nexus 4 from the list, but devs willing to get their hands dirty with the Nexuses 7 and 10, as well as both variants of the Galaxy Nexus -- yes, Verizon's model is on the list -- can have at it right now at the source link below.

Five iPhone 5s in five days win an iPhone 5 gift card, courtesy of Heatmaps!

You have to admit, this was a great way to start off the week, and it's just as enjoyable to finish it off this way as well. The fifth day of our five-day giveaway campaign is coming to a close, but not before we hand out one final prize to a lucky winner: a gift card good for the price of one iPhone 5 at full retail price. This comes to us courtesy of Heatma.ps, a Polish startup that created the first heat map analysis of mobile apps. Heat mapping can certainly come in handy for developers who are trying to figure out the best way to enhance their app's UI experience. So take a peek at the link above and -- while you're here -- make sure to enter this week's contests, okay?

Yes, this week just keeps getting better and better, as we have yet another iPhone 5 to send your way. This time, the phone comes with a pair of rugged cases, and it's all thanks to Otterbox, which has made a rather large name for itself over the years by offering peace of mind to accident-prone customers. The winner of this contest will have both a Defender and Commuter case to use with their new prized possession, which is nice since different situations may require different types of protection. Anyway, scope out the rules and leave a comment below to enter -- and remember, all of our other contests are still running right now, so don't forget to hop over to enter those ones as well!

Need ideas for a holiday present for that special someone? We know your significant other would be completely enamored at the sight of a beautiful white custom iPhone 5 case... adorned with Engadget's logo on it (the actual iPhone 5 won't hurt, of course). The phone and case was provided to us by CafePress, an e-tailer that not only specializes in custom cases but clothes, stationary, flair and plenty more. It's definitely worth a look-see, but not until after you enter to win this contest -- as well as the ones we started up Monday and Tuesday (they're still going)!

Day one has come and gone, but we are just twenty percent of the way through our weeklong mission to give out five iPhones. Today's contest is made possible by Tanga, an e-tailer known for offering tech magazine subscriptions on the cheap as well as closeout prices on just about anything you can think of. Tanga is hooking the lucky winner up with an Apple gift card with enough credit to cover the no-contract cost of an iPhone 5, which means you have more flexibility in choosing a carrier. So head below, read the rules and leave a comment to enter again! You have until Saturday to get your entry in, but the longer you wait, the easier it is to forget -- believe us, that happens to us all the time. (At least, we think it does.)

Introducing Engadget’s next giveaway: Five iPhone 5s in five days!

Introducing Engadget's next giveaway Five iPhone 5s in five days!

A lot of you out there have been anxiously awaiting the holidays, and -- more importantly -- an excuse to get your hands on the latest iPhone. In fact, the demand is so high that Apple is still experiencing inventory shortages. We don't want that little niggle getting in your way, of course, so we've teamed up with five different companies to get you set up with an iPhone! So here's the deal: beginning Monday, we will begin one new iPhone 5 contest every day through Friday. Some of the contests will feature the actual phone (carrier branding may vary), while others will offer an Apple Store gift card to cover the cost of buying one without a contract.

You can enter each individual contest once, giving you five separate opportunities to win over the course of the next week. So be on the lookout starting Monday, and make sure you come back every day to increase your chances of winning! Below you'll find the companies involved, so that way you know exactly who to thank for your new toy. This post is not a contest, by the way, so leaving a comment here won't enter you to win. Just make sure you're back here bright and early on Monday -- believe us, there will be plenty of other awesome news to check out that day while you're here.

Note: this next week is going to be a pretty hectic one, so we're going to keep each contest open for five days rather than the usual two.
