How to Update Nexus 7 To Official Android 4.1.2 Jelly Bean

If you are thinking to buy the Nexus 7 tablet, here’s another important reason you can consider. The fact that this tablet enables you to get Android updates relatively quicker gives it an edge over other smart phones available. This is true for the Motorola Photon 4G which cannot be upgraded to Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich despite having some really appealing specifications including dual core processor with 1GB of RAM. However, the “not so new” Nexus S still has been able to support Android 4.1 Jelly Bean updates.

People who have already bought a Nexus 7 might be surprised to know that they can now easily update their phones to Jelly Bean through Android 4.1.2 having the build number JZ054K. In order to enjoy this interesting feature you can either trust Google to incorporate it in your phone in a couple of days or week or do it on your own in a jiffy. If you have opted for the second alternative there is a simple series of steps for which you would initially have to jailbreak your Nexus 7 including flash Clockwork Mode Recovery. Further directions are listed below:

1. Download Android with JZ054K code.
2. Save it in your /sdcard on your storage device.
3. Restart with Clockwork Mode Recovery.
4. Browse in order to install zip through sdcard > select zip from sdcard and then simply choose the file that you had already transferred to your phone in the 2nd step.
5. Allow your Clockwork Mode Recovery to perform its function and then select the “reboot system now” option displayed in the main menu.

       
Hopefully the (above said) steps regarding Android 4.1.2 Jelly Bean would help you in enhancing the features of your phone within minimal time.
