Yesterday, Google has quietly roll out an OTA update to Nexus 7, android 4.1.2. Still, it is jelly bean ROM with minor but not major update to this fancy tablet. The most notable changes in this 31MB size android 4.1.2 firmware update is the improved home screen with landscape mode. Nexus 7 pre-installed only the phablet mode home screen when you get it out of the box. No home screen rotation is available. In the previous version Android 4.1.1,  rotation can only be made with app like Ultimate Rotation Control to force it for rotation (for stock ROM).

Besides that, the android 4.1.2 update has also improved the overall stability of Jelly Bean as well as fixed some bugs. Google has released the Android 4.1.2 Jelly Bean code to AOSP (Android Open Source Project) and we believe more devices will be enjoying Jelly Bean 4.1.2 very soon in either official OTA update from Google or from Android developers via custom ROMs.

If you have got the OTA update, feel free to drop us comment on the overall performance of the latest 4.1.2 Jelly Bean update.
