Did you ever install 5.0.2?
![]() Had no problems whatsoever apart from a bug when watching videos on YouTube, but it was a minor thing. Great tablet and still working smoothly. I'm seriously impressed it's lasted this long. There are rumours there might be a Nexus 8 tablet coming soon launching with Android 6.0 Marshmallow. Might be announced at the end of the month if rumours are true. |

Google have announced Android 6.0 Marshmallow will roll out to Nexus 7 2013. Roll-out begins next week.
I'm amazed it's being released for the Nexus 7 range, i just hope it doesn't make the tablet go tits-up. I had no problems whatsoever with Lollipop, but will be more cautious with Marshmallow. Think i might wait a while before i download. |

I finally gave in and upgraded from 4.4.4 to 5.1.1. Seems OK, if a little slower than before and I can't see any actual advantages. The main annoyance is that the tablet still thinks it needs to upgrade to 5.1.1, but if I hit the upgrade button it just sticks on 'rebooting now'. I've wiped the cache partition, but it still nags me to do an upgrade I've already done.

Had a small 22 MB bugfix tonight on my Nexus 9, this was followed straight away by invitation to download 6.0 , will do this tomorrow as I have had no problems with previous updates.
Nothing has come through on my Nexus 13 yet. |

I received a notification a couple of days ago, but the update was not to Marshmallow, it was from 5.1.1 LMY48M to 5.1.1 LMY48T.

Android 6 is going to make such a big difference to tablets. When sitting idle, the N9 will probably last forever!

Still nothing for me here. I remember with lollipop it was after Xmas before I got it fit some reason. I remember Samsung devices had lollipop before me with a nexus. Why so slow? Defeats the point of a nexus device.

I don't suppose anyone else has experienced a problem with their screen not rotating properly?
I've tried some stuff I found online including an app, and it hasn't worked, trying to avoid a complete reset at the moment. Sometimes it is fine but then without me turning it off, it won't rotate. I'm turning it on and off up to 0 times to get it working again. |

I'm just going to wait for the 2016 Nexus 7 now. My 2012 Wifi N7 is being a PITA at the moment, even downgraded to 4.4.4

The 2012 model is best forgotten. I don't use it at all now, and wouldn't even give it away. I don't hate anyone that much!

I've not heard anything myself, but it would be great news. I'm amazed Google stopped selling an affordable tablet after the 2013 Nexus 7.
For a while we had the Hudl 2, but that's gone and now most people can only get quite low spec hardware and screens for a low/modest cost. |
