Here's how you can get your hands on Android 7.0 Nougat right now

NEW DELHI: Google recently announced that the latest and final edition of Android 7.0 Nougat is being rolled out for Nexus devices, starting today, Aug 23. If you are a Nexus user, you can soon get it via an OTA update. You can go to 'Settings' menu and tap on 'About', and then select 'System Updates'. You will have to, then, click on 'Check for Updates' and wait if the update actually pops up on your device. This is the simplest way. However, if the update doesn't show up, and you are a type of person who cannot wait until the roll out pops up, you can opt in for a manual update. And, here's how you can do it. Since the OTA update hasn't popped up on your device and if you can’t wait to get Nougat on your Nexus device, the only other way left for you to try out is, via the beta program. But, it would be very important to keep in mind that, only some devices can actually get an update through this method, including Nexup 6P, Nexus 5X, Nexus 9, and Pixel C. Also, do not forget to actually back up your Android device before going for an update. You have to visit http://g.co/androidbeta, sign in to your Google account, and tap on Enroll Device. Once done, you can again follow the 'OTA update' method. You can get an update pop up and then, enjoy! While Google claims that they take up to 24 hours to send out an update to your device, it usually reaches you within minutes. However, we recommend you to be on a Wi-Fi connection for the download. It's pretty simple. However, there is another way to install the new Android Nougat as reported by Gadgets 360 where in you will have to download the latest Android Debug Bridge (ADB) tool on your PC and go by a number of processes, which we feel are a little complicated; especially if you are new to recovery modes, SDKs and the rest.
