Google releases Android 4.1.2 update to AOSP

6

The last 12 hours have been pretty informative hours in the Android world. We caught images of an LG Nexus, a Nexus 10 and now of Android Jelly Bean 4.1.2. Coincidentally was the build that we were all-seeing on the LG Nexus. Up until today, the most recent build number of Jelly Bean was 4.1.1. That is what you would find on the Nexus 7 and various versions of the Galaxy Nexus.

Google’s chief engineer Jean-Baptiste Quero just announced that Android 4.1.2 is being released to AOSP, Android Open Source Project. The build number will be JZO54K and the AOSP tag is listed a android-4.1.2_r1.

The updated build is being marked as a minor update.

We’re releasing Android 4.1.2 to AOSP today, which is a minor update
on top of 4.1.1.

As a note to maintainers of community builds running on Nexus 7: please update to 4.1.2 at the first opportunity. Future variants of  the grouper hardware will have a minor change in one of the components  (the power management chip) that will not be compatible with 4.1.1.

The build number is JZO54K, and the tag is android-4.1.2_r1.

Enjoy,
Conley and JBQ

No official changelog has been located, but if Google makes an update, no matter how minor, then it must be important. Those of you that know what you are doing, or those of you that don’t , feel free to pop on over to the usual location for AOSP downloads.

Time for an update. I am the proud father of three, 2, 8, and 11. I finally just moved up from the Samsung Vibrant to the Samsung Galaxy S III...... Let me tell you, it is mind blowing. I love Android, I love tech and I love my family. Not in that order though. I work to hard, play even harder and take care of all that are around me when I can.
