Owners of the GSM Galaxy Nexus should check their handsets — an
update to Android 4.1.2 should be rolling out over-the-air any time
now. Several tipsters have written in to let us know their phones have
been updated and we've verified with our own devices, as well. This
release isn't a huge surprise, given that the Nexus 7
received the same update
just last week. Unfortunately, the only new user-facing feature for the
Nexus 7 was landscape mode on the home screen — a feature that
apparently has not made its way over to the GSM Galaxy Nexus. Still, bug
fixes are generally a good thing and some are claiming that the
performance is even more "buttery" than before. Start checking your
phone now if your'e interested, but only if you're not using a Verizon
or Sprint model — those customers will have to wait for this small
update.
Update: A few of our intrepid commenters have discovered that
expandable notifications can now be opened up with a single-finger
scroll, as opposed to the two-finger scroll that was previously
required. We've also heard from a few tipsters that the GSM Nexus S has
also received this software update, and we're checking ourselves now to
verify.
