    just checked my nexus 7 v1 and its still on 4.4.2 and says the system is up to date if I do an update check

    so I assume you mean a nexus 7 v2 ?

    also checked a samsung tab 3 and thats an even older os , probably jellybean (as is my s3 mini) , so time samsung got a move on too

    It's for 2012 n7 ( my one ), 2013 n7 and others.

    A word of warning it does a full factory flash because it uses a new file system Called F2FS ( do a google ) and it does clear everything ,Titamimun backup got wiped and nandriod backups.

    Found this on another site :-

    What is F2FS?

    F2FS (Flash-Friendly File System) is a flash file system created by Kim Jaegeuk at Samsung for the Linux operating system kernel. The motive for F2FS was to build a file system that from the start takes into account the characteristics of NAND flash memory-based storage devices (such as solid-state disks, eMMC, and SD cards), which are widely used in computer systems ranging from mobile devices to servers.

    The idea was of ss2man44. F2FS helps Nexus 7 2012 where he needs: IO Speed and slowdown after long period (months?) of use. This Filesystem is used in others phone too like Moto X where he shows good performance.

    aldo is correct once you follow it through it changes.link just looks like its out of date/version.

    links are easier for people if posted this way.

    _http://www.gottabemobile.com/2014/06/04/android-4-3-3-update-list-kitkat/

    link is still dead and allows you to drag over and goto the site , no editing req , :king-042:

    I think you are talking about an app whereas I was talking about the system update checker in settings - about device

    yes , mine is the wifi one , no 3g

    its not rooted or sideloaded or anything

    if I try the app , it just says its awaiting google for the update

    I think i will await the official OTA update for now , but thanks for the offer as I may take you up on it if I never get this OTA one (never used any of those tools , lol)

    My nexus 5 phone got the update - nothing was wiped, and I re rooted the phone with Wugs Nexus Root Tookit straight after the update. Everything is still intact, all software apps and settings are the same.

    I think your n5 was already on f2fs system that's why it didn't wipe. I watched my n7 2012 while it updated and it showed file system info that it changed.

    The update included lots of minor and a few major changes and so far I have had a few Fc's. You Tube crashed out with a report being sent back also one or two old programs glitching. Otherwise it's a lot smoother.
