Android 4.1.2 Jelly Bean has just been released

When it seemed that the new update to Android 4.2 Key Lime Pie was about to arrive, then Google surprises us with something totally unexpected, Android 4.1.2 Jelly Bean, a new compilation of the already seen new version. The news is really interesting and can have a lot of background. As for the news that it brings, nothing remarkable, apart from some in the operation and the fix of some errors. The important question is, is this the version that the new Nexus will carry?

After a long time talking about the possibility that the new Nexus would work with Android 4.2 Key Lime Pie, which would become the latest version of Google's operating system for smartphones and tablets, then we find a new update of the Jelly Bean itself. In addition, it comes just a little before the supposed new Nexus makes its appearance on the Android scene. Now comes the powerful possibility that this is actually the version that the LG Optimus Nexus will carry when it hits the market, instead of the new Android 4.2 Key Lime Pie.

Minor update

However, the fact that the update is minor, makes us think that it is only a small transition to the one that will be revealed next month, and that it will mean a more remarkable leap. In fact, in addition to the improvements mentioned, which only include some solutions to problems, and the optimization of some resources, it also adds a feature to the Nexus 7. It is now possible to change the orientation of the screen in the Home window. This, which is very common in any Android device, in the Nexus 7 could only be done through external applications, thanks to this update, it is already an internal function.

The update to version 4.1.2 of Jelly Bean is now available for the Nexus 7, it will be soon for the rest of the Nexus family, and probably also for the Motorola Xoom tablet.
