you’re able to grab all theOTA download filesfor April 2017 as well for the Nexus and Pixel devices. If you don’t want to mess with these files, the OTA updates should start rolling out automatically in the next few days.
Google has also posted the details on theApril 2017 security patches. They include fixing eight issues that Google has labeled as “Critical”. The company says the biggest such issue is one that could allow hackers to enable “remote code execution on an affected device through multiple methods such as email, web browsing, and MMS when processing media files”. Google says it has seen no examples of any of these issues being exploited out in the wild.
As we reported this weekend, Google has already started rolling out theAndroid 7.1.2 update for the Nexus C and Nexus Playerto some owners of those devices as over-the-air updates. We expect those files to be released for the other devices soon.
