The Nexus 5 firmware got leaked online and it had the build version of KTU65 running Android 4.4.3. The update said that it fixed the issue with the camera and the battery drain.
Now we are hearing that Android 4.4.2 with the build number of KTU83 has been seen on the Nexus 5 and it has the code name of Hammerhead.
Along with this Android 4.4.3 firmware with number KTU79 has also been seen on the 2013 version of the Google Nexus 7.
Google follow a naming system and the first letter is the code name, for example K for KitKat. The second letter is the branch code, for example R for release. The next character is the quarter, U stand for Q1 2014, then the following two digits are the date code, 83 is the 83rd day of that quarter, for instance 24 March.
This means that the KTU83 build of Android 4.4.3 for the Nexus 5 was made on 24 March 2014.
With all the leaks about the Android firmware update for the Nexus 5 and Nexus 7 2013, we expect that it will be just a matter of time before we hear about the official rollout date for Android 4.4.3.
Here is the list of fixes that Android 4.4.3 is expected to bring.
1. The fixes to camera include mm-qcamera-daemon crash and camera focus in regular and HDR modes.
