[Q] Why am I still 4.0.1? - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

Why am I still 4.0.1?
Is this normal and my phone is simply late in the update roll-out?
I have been waiting for 4.0.2 in order to install Google Wallet.

We have no official explanation but the 4.0.2 rollout seems to have stopped - possibly because of bugs.
4.0.3 OTA for the GN hasn't started yet afaik.

Oh ok, I must have missed those news.
I haven't encountered any bugs in 4.0.1, but I would like to install Google Wallet. Is there a Google Wallet apk install for 4.0.1?

There is a Google Wallet apk out u can download, should be posted on the forum somewhere

For those that have the samsung build, did you get the 4.0.2 update?

Still haven't got mine. I have the samsung build (forgot what the code is yakjuw?)
Anyways, I really hope we get the updates everyone else is getting because I'm not going to flash to stock google build just to get updates.
I have the samsungbuild (yakjuxw) and i haven't got it yet (norway)
Well I sure hope we get it. That was one of my worries when an XDA forum member first found out there were different builds. Hope we still get updates quickly like the google ones.
I haven't gotten it yet on my yakjuux.
Is 402 for GSM or LTE? I thought it was LTE only.

We will get it, but those sent from Google will get it everything from 1 day to 1-2 weeks before us i've heard.
They are planing to release 4.0.3 soon too, so we should get 4.0.2 maybe tomorrow if we are luckey.

Both. But the OTA for GSM started happening today and LTE had the 4.0.2 OTA happening yesterday.
The stock image files were released for both (4.0.2) yesterday.
Anyone yet?
Also, does anyone know if Google responded about this? We have a nexus...we should get updates fast and first like everyone else. Ridiculous.
Article posted on Android Central about the app the person developed. The "update" at the bottom of the article sheds some light.

My GSM Gnex came with Samsung build and I didn't get v4.0.2 since yesterday. That's why I flashed to yakju. Loving it so far!

@ajftl There's this nice little app in the market called GN Official Update Checker that tells you your build and if it's updated directly by Google.

Bell Canada 4.0.2 OTA for GT-9250m

I haven't seen a thread dedicated to to this topic yet, so I figured I would ask if anyone on Bell Canada has gotten this update yet.
The phone told me an update was out, so I downloading and installed OTA. It doesn't look like it updated anything. Unless it was the radio or something.
I have the Wifi issue among others, but it bugs me the most.
Anyone let me know of a similar experience or if they have the OTA 4.0.2
Regards,
Chris.
I am on bell also and still no update for me.

Bell phones will get their update from Samsung not Google. Who knows when Samsung will push the button to deploy any update.
Imo, you don't want 4.0.2, its terribly laggy.

Why do the bell phones get their updates from samsung. I have already gotten an update from google. Just not a ICS update. It updated something else.
Can you link your source please?

Because they come with a Samsung build of ICS not an actual google build. The update you got was released by Samsung not Google.
Run this app it checks your build information and it tells you who won't provide your updates.

If you want your updates to come directly from Google, convert your phone to yakju (the official Google build of ICS for the Galaxy Nexus... Bell/Virgin models have yakjuux, a Samsung version). There are several threads about doing that on here.

Alright, thanks for the info. Forgive me for not checking this out myself. I've only just got back in the country and am a little behind. Thanks.

4.0.4,.........

Where the hell is 4.0.4 I see a lot of sites saying that the gnexus has 4.0.4, well mine doesnt and its painfull to see phones released with 4.0.4 while I'm still stuck on 4.0.2, I really want my gallery to be smooth and such and better performance. ... I'm on T-Mobile NL...

You must not have Yakju.
It doesn't matter what he has, updates are released in BATCHES and NOT EVERYONE GETS IT AT THE SAME TIME.
My friend is on yakju with 4.0.2. Big deal. If you want it that badly root your phone and put it on yourself.

Have anyone here still not received OTA?

Hi I am an Asia user and have an Asia version nexus. Yesterday I tried to update my cellphone but showed failure. I don't know why. is this a hardware issue or the Asia area is still not on the OTA list.
Sent from my HTC EVO 3D X515m using XDA
What failure are you getting? And also what OTA are you waiting for/hoping to receive?
I guess he means JB 4.1
Dude this update hasnt been released yet, mid of the month hopefully
Yesterday I also tried with my GTab 10.1 to manual update, I also got some error messages that the server wasnt reachable or something similar. I waited just a couple of hours and then it worked and told me "no update for you". Guess it was hammered by 7.7 users Just try again
Isn't the Asian one the one still on 4.0.2 or something?
Well I'm a Saudi Arabian model and I m still on 4.0.2.....

That's what I was thinking, but fiiiiiiinally just received 4.0.4 ota update for my yakjuxw GN!!!
Stuck on 4.0.2 here in Australia.
Samsung won't help and neither will my carrier. Both say they have no info on 4.0.4 update. Frustrating.
Should just be one update that everyone can download.

Any idea if this could change anytime soon? These nexus phones are meant to get jelly bean updates first. Don't want to miss out.

I guess they will update all to 4.1 in the mid july......

I don't understand why people are hesitant on upgrading their OS manually if they are eagerly waiting for the newest one. There are no drawbacks and you can go to your "official" version any time you want for warranty purpose.

Canada is still on 4.0.1 volume fix, since the Canadian build (yakjuux) didn't receive any updates since. The 4.0.2 update was pushed in February/March but due to NFC issues and Play store issues it was pulled, and never re-initiated.
So Canada is on 4.0.1, yakjuxw is on 4.0.4 along with the Google builds (yakju and takju), and the remaining builds are on 4.0.2.
Imagine you buy any product for it's one specific advertised feature. You pay full price and then surprise: that one feature is just not there. You can easily fix it yourself, but wouldn't you be angry? Everybody knows there are options to flash whatever you want manually, but the point is you were lied to and paid for something that you didn't get.
OK. I am not confident yet to update manually. Have spent the last couple days learning more about this.
My main concern is that when jellybean is released officially. (I know you guys probly have it but I like things to be easy, still find rooting etc to be rather daunting)
My phone isn't much but its rather special

That's exactly what I did this morning, and it worked flawlessly. It was pretty easy too, I'm glad I took the risk! My Gnex can finally reside in my hands instead of its box!

As for the GSM non-yakju/non-takju builds, yakjuux (Canada), yakjujp (Middle East), and yakjuxe (Russia) are on 4.0.1/4.0.2. The remainder have had the 4.0.4 OTA either rolled out, or is in the process of being rolled out.

The process of flashing a yakju or takju ROM (including 4.1) is significantly easier than you might think. No "rooting" required.
Take a look at the flash link in my signature. Part of the first post will show you how to unlock your bootloader, and once that is done, the second post will tell you how to get the official 4.1 build (which can receive OTA updates).

Has this happened to anyone?

Sorry if this has been covered already, couldn't find it while searching.
I went to settings - about phone - check for updates, my phone showed that it hadn't check for updates since 12/31/1969. Is there something wrong with my phone? I'm stock with Rogers on 4.0.1

That's what I used to get when I cleared data on Google services framework until I tried to pull an update. Looks like its not actually checking for an update, which if you are on a custom ROM is a good thing. You should check Google services framework..

That's normal, just hit check now and it will change back to your current time. I'm surprise you're on 4.0.1 I just got mine a month ago from Rogers, and it comes with 4.0.2. but I suggest you to flash to the latest yakju and get Jelly bean

Will do, thanks. Ya, I haven't received one update since I got the phone launch day. I think I'll give yakju a try. Jelly Bean on my Nexus 7 is amazing.
