I'm not sure if this was new but I was just playing around my nexus 7 and a candy cane popped up with the jelly beans.

You can try yourselves. Just keep trying. It will eventually pop up. Is this indicating something ?

You go into Settings, About Tablet, tap on the Android version a few times until it comes up. Then long press the big jelly bean.

I haven't seen a candy cane though.

That is, pretty interesting. Perhaps if Google goes back through the letters for naming Android OS's, they'll use "Candy Cane" for C :p

Some brief searching leads to: http://www.tomsguide.com/us/Android-Candy-Cane-easter-egg-Google-Jelly-Bean,news-15794.html But this doesn't exactly explain it either (just more speculation)

An easter egg inside an easter egg. Eggception. I take the candy cane as a symbol of the time of release for the next phone/ OS.

Hmm never thought of it that way, people were saying the next OS would be Kandy Kane and it was driving me nuts! Why would Google want to name the next version of Android after a stripper? :p:confused:

Nah symbol of time makes more sense. Besides they haven't yet misspelled the desserts just for it to fit. Its going to be key lime pie. They have discussed it before but its never been officially announced but they haven't been wrong yet. By they I mean rumourers.

I touched the version number for 2 hours straight and nothing......then a few more times and finally a picture of a fat guy with tassles on his nips. That's the lard someone mentioned earlier.

If you tap Android Version 3 times the jelly bean does not have a face. Tap it one time and the face appears.
