Hasta La Gadget!

Samsung has started rolling out Android 4.2.2 XXDMJ1 update for the Wi-Fi only Galaxy Tab 2 10.1. The previous major update this tablet received was Android 4.1.2, which was rolled out a few months back. The Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 Android 4.2.2 XXDMJ1 update is being rolled out in stages, so it might take a while before it becomes available in your region. Tablet owners in Germany have already received the update, and since Wi-Fi only variants don’t need carrier approval of the update, it shouldn’t take a lot of time before the update becomes available in your region as well.

The Android 4.2.2 update brings a host of improvements and new features. A new Daydream screensaver mode, widgets on the lockscreen, separate toggles page in status bar and more are included in this update. A few features exclusive only to Samsung devices are also included as well, alongside the usual slew of bug fixes, performance and stability improvements. Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 owners may download the update over-the-air straight on their tablet itself, or they may hook it up to a computer and do the deed through Samsung Kies. Those who’re feeling a bit adventurous can obtain the flashable firmware file online and flash it manually on the tablet, though only advanced users should head down this road.

For a smartphone that was officially announced at the beginning of this year to hit the end of the road where its upgrade path is concerned is rather sad, considering how some of the older devices in the market will forge onwards with a newer version of the operating system. In a nutshell, the Samsung Galaxy Grand will officially stop its Android updates at Android 4.2.2 Jelly Bean, and seeding for this last major update is happening in Russia already, with the global version of the ROM tipped to arrive in the days ahead.

Just what can users expect from the latest update for the Samsung Galaxy Grand? Well, you will be able to enjoy details such as lock screen widgets, advanced toggles menu, a daydream screensaver, improved task switching and a bunch of other minor tweaks which is said to enhance the overall user experience. Those who are in a hurry and do not have the patience to wait for a global Android 4.2.2 Jelly Bean rollout can pick up the firmware here, although the flashing process will always involve some risk while voiding your warranty. If you picked up the Galaxy Grand earlier in the year, are you disappointed that the update cycle has ended all too quickly?

Sony has been gradually rolling out Android 4.2.2 update for its Xperia devices. Only a few days ago we reported that the Xperia ZR was receiving said update, quite a while after some of the high-end Xperia smartphones had already received it. It appears now that the Xperia Tablet Z LTE, model (SGP321), is receiving Android 4.2.2 update. No word as yet when Sony will begin the roll out for the Wi-Fi variants.

The update brings a few user interface tweaks as well, apart from the features built in to Android 4.2.2. Navigation buttons are centralized now and the notification bar has been moved up top, similar to how it is placed in recent smartphones and tablets. Google Search and app drawers retain their positions in the upper corners. A pull down quick settings feature, normally found in Xperia smartphones, has also been added to the Xperia Tablet Z through this update.It is likely that the update is being rolled out in stages, so it might take a few days for the notification to pop up in your particular country or region. One can assume that after Sony is done with rolling out Android 4.2.2 for the LTE variant, it will turn its attention towards the two Wi-Fi variants. [Image via Xperia Blog]
