Nexus 4 successfully running Android L [Video]

It should come as no surprise that the wizards who frequent online communities like XDA Developers and elsewhere that the preview for Android L has been successfully installed on a Nexus 4.

The Nexus 4 will get the official Android update later this year, but the developer preview of the upgraded OS is only officially available for those with a Nexus 5 smartphone or Nexus 7 Wi-Fi (2013) tablet.

Just like cracking the combination to a bootloader on a locked down device though, it was just a matter of time before someone was able to take the system image and jam it into the previous generation Nexus device. The guys that did all the handy work and provided instructions along with a couple mirror sites to download the package. Note that the "L" release is still not stable yet. Check out the Hands-on video below.
