Little by little the factory images based on Android 5.0.2 for models in the Nexus range. Not long ago they met the first tablet to achieve such compatibility And today it is already possible to download the necessary files for two new models: the Nexus 7 2013 (WiFi version) and, also, the Nexus 10.
The truth is that from Google they are not in a special hurry to launch the images corresponding to each of their terminals, something that may surprise in part since one of the novelties offered by the new version of their operating system is the correction of errors -which are always key for the operation of tablet phones is the best possible-. We imagine that if the new inclusions were in the security section, things would change a lot as it happened with Android 5.0.1.
The name of the build
The new build based on Android 5.0.2 has the nomenclature LRX22G and it can be found on the page that the Mountain View company has for developers, since they are the ones who can benefit the most from the factory image that has been published (at the end of the article we leave the corresponding link). We say this because the published image can be used both to create your own ROMs and to be able to adequately adapt existing applications.
A detail that should not be forgotten is that if someone decides to use the Android 5.0.2 factory image on their terminal, in this specific case one of the mentioned tablets, they should know that the installation that is carried out leaves the device as if it were new. Therefore, user data is lost - which makes it essential to perform a Backup of these since otherwise they disappear-. In this way, waiting for the official update via OTA (Over The Air) is not unreasonable.
No big changes
The truth is that Android 5.0.2 is an incremental improvement that does not offer great news regarding the inclusion of additions in the operating system. Basically malfunctions are corrected and they are purified apart. Therefore, it makes the stability much greater when using the mobile terminal in which it is installed. The point is that this must be very clear, since you should not expect to find new functionalities, since this is not the case.
