Holy yes! Out of the wildest dreams of the much awaited Nexus 4 users, Jelly Bean 4.3 is finally arriving to the coast. The sources are from Jeff Williams who shows in the Nexus 4 running Jelly Bean 4.3 (JWR66N). The rumors spent their time well before the release of JellyBean 4.3, we already covered up guide to Install Google Play Edition ROM (Android 4.3) on Samsung Galaxy S4 GT-I9505.

The plot, our friend Jeff Willams here bought a Nexus 4 from Craigslist but while operating it, he discovered something astounding which was a new version Android, Jelly Bean 4.3. While thinking that this might just be a build.prop edit, Jeff researched a bit and concluded that it was true. As soon as this news hit the web, developers/users at Reddit, provided an helping hand to Jeff, for taking a System dump and posting it online. Initially the dump was leaked as a TWRP supported backup, which could be restored using TWRP 2.5+. Later, gmillz at the XDA-Developers forum created a flash-able zip of the same, which was pre-rooted and could be flashed using any recovery on your Nexus 4. A bit more later, he slipped a new build which was deodexed and ran an insecure kernel. While flashing the pre-rooted zip, a whole bunch reported the root not working, but a solution is posted too, read the instructions below and flash the latest Jelly Bean 4.3 leak on your Nexus 4.

Kindly visit the original thread at XDA  forums for more info and interact with other users as well.
