Will Nexu 7 (2012) get Android KitKat ?

Hi,
Will Nexus 7 (2012) get Android updates in future ?
If yes then how long Google will keep on releasing updates for it ?
I am planning to buy one as its available at very low price.
Thanks.

Yes it already had kitkat

Still no OTA update yet though, so you'll have to flash it yourself

YES.

Yes, it is running on my N7 2012 now - KRT16O or KitKat 4.4 was manually flashed/updated & rooted again with TWRP. A series of Apps updated via Play Store. Downloaded a 1.4MB patch/update - which should update it KRT16S "This software update ... improves performance and stability and fixes bugs." - with the prompt to "Restart & Install"
Interesting, my Nexus 5's build number is KRT16M and showing no newer update when I checked it just now.

go, get it!

It will surely get updates. If not OTA from Google, there are great Devs for this device who will support for long.
Btw Flipkart slashed price to 8499Rs for the 16GB one. Go, get one!

(Dev) Ubuntu touch for Nexus 6

Very good. I'm trying to make a team to make a ROM for Ubuntu Touch Nexus 6, if you are interested in the project you can send a message to the following email: [email protected]

You might want to expand your thread a bit more. Have you done any building to the rom? Let alone the Nexus 6 was shipped with 5.X. Ubuntu Touch is build on 4.4.

GCam on nexus 6

Guys my friend just bought a nexus 6, we want to install the pixel 2 camera on the phone. Is it possible to install it? I talking about the Google camera port

Nope. 64-bit software won't install on a 32-bit device.

i just update my nexus 6 to android 11, is it available to install gcam 8.1 on my device?
and also you guys can tell me the available version of gcam on nexus 6,

Google Camera 4.3 and up is 64-bit only, so version 8.1 is a hard no. If running Android 11, you need to install Google Camera 3ish (search the LineageOS thread for the exact version) as version 4.2 doesn't communicate with the camera hardware.

Nokia 7+ kernel version

Just wondering what is the kernel version for Nokia 7 Plus.
Also with kernel version > 4.4 and Oreo(Trebel) Shouldn't it be easier for OEMs to provide support for more than 2 Years? (I understand its the company's decision but just asking).

The kernel version is 4.4.78

How downgrade my Fire 7 9th tablet to Android 5.0?

I have a friend who wants to install an app that only works on android 5.0 (or lower) don't ask me why. So he bought 2 Fire 7 9th devices and asked me if I know how to downgrade to android 5.0 so he can be able to install his app. So, do you guys know a good tutorial teaching how to do it?

The stock rom is on 7.1.2 and you can't downgrade it to 5.0.0 and you may need to add the max API level to 25 which is nougat
