Android 5.0 Key Lime Pie seems to suffer several delays after rumours had spread regarding its upcoming debut on Google I/O event. As fans worldwide anticipate its arrival, another version of the Jelly Bean has been detected carrying the assigned number - Android 4.3. Is this the "Ultimate Jelly Bean" of the Android OS?

Android Authority caught a server containing logs of Android 4.3 with build number JWR23B and JWR25C, plus intriguing information that it is being tested on three Nexus line: Nexus 4, Nexus 7 and Nexus 10.

Nexus devices are the first to receive latest Android OS version and later be released to other Android devices compatible with the version. If this Android 4.3 is real and will be included to the Nexus line, Android 5.0 Key Lime Pie version probably still lies inside the oven.

Log Details of Android 4.3 Jelly Bean

  • The leaks logs indicate new Android 4.3 version and still a member of the Jelly Bean family.
  • Android 4.3 version has two build numbers - JWR23B and JWR25C.
  • Logs from server can also be faked, easily.
  • Initial devices to obtain Android 4.3 are Nexus 4, Nexus 7 and Nexus 10.
  • Recent comments in the official Chromium bug tracker which listed JWR23B build number came from a Chromium developer.

Is It Android 4.3 or Android 5.0 Debuting on Google I/O?

With less than a month left on the Google I/O's clock, everyone is expect the newest Android version. However, Google always release a single Android version at a time and it is unusual to have both Android 4.3 and Android 5.0 on the floor.

Moreover, Google does not really assign version numbers during test releases and only determines the real Android version once its ready for launching. Android 5.0 logs are nowhere to be found yet while this leak of Android 4.3 is the closest confirmation the world knows about the upcoming Android version.

Regardless of either Android 4.3 or Android 5.0, people should wait for the Google I/O event coming this May 15 to 17 in San Francisco to know what will Google reveal of new features, bug fixes and surprises of the new Android OS.
