It’s been a scant couple of weeks since the Sprint Galaxy Nexus saw an update to Android 4.2. Today it’s got another update rolling out. This one brings things to Android 4.2.1 build JRO03U.L700GA02) and includes the following:
- Redesigned camera interface and new Photo Sphere feature (a 360-degree panorama mode)
- Notifications Shade accessible by swiping top screen edge downwards; swipe down with two fingers to view notifications; tap the notification to expand and take action on it.
- Lockscreen widgets to access certain apps without unlocking the screen; sidescroll right for camera or left for other widgets (time and weather, gmail, etc.)
You can snag the update over the air (hit your settings>about menu for that), or download manually from Google and apply it that way. (If you need help with that, hit up this thread in our forums.)
Note that this update is for the Sprint Galaxy Nexus and not the Verizon Galaxy Nexus. Repeat: Verizon’s Galaxy Nexus has not been updated. Still.
