Does this OTA flash a new radio or bootloader? Did not use the OTA because I'm on AOKP 4.0.4. Would like a package of any other firmware that came with OTA if possible.
I don't think you need to worry about getting the OTA source. I'm sure someone will upload it within an hour after release

hi guys ihave an strange issue iwas using stock yakju 4.0.2 getting the update via ota
but after root and flash another rom idecide to come back to stock so via odin icame back to 4.0.1 thinking that iwill recieve the update directly ! but ididnt !! is there any problem or ?google stopped the ota update !!
From what I know, you have to have the bootloader locked. With it unlocked you won't receive the OTA. I maybe wrong though...
yes you are right but if you came back to 4.0.1 via odin the bootloader will automaticlly locked ! as i know and the unlock image which is below google type when i open the device dissapear so iguess that already locked
You can get the OTA with an unlocked boot loader but make sure you have the stock boot loader and radio as well as the ROM.

the problem is im not getting it dunno why so do you guys recmmend to unlock root the device and just flash any thing i want due to recovery !? and which is faster flash update due to recovery or getting ota updates ? from your experience
Did you flash a YAKJU image? Not everyone with the YAKJU** image have gotten the update, so be sure to check which one you have (should say in build.prop i believe or any system info app).
Also, why'd you use ODIN? Just use fastboot to flash the stock images Google provide
I think not everyone receive the OTA update from Google
Maybe 10 minutes after getting my Nexus i got the notification to update to 4.0.2. Mine was yakju out the box. Booted device up for the first time and my Nexus was in Japanese.
I always get the 4.0.2 OTA when i restore the phone to stock ITL41F.
I restored my phone today again and i dont recibe OTA update, seems to be disabled the OTA updates.
Maybe Google is changing something? who knows XD But i´m pretty sure that something happens with the OTA updates for yakju since yesterday.
PD; sorry about my english... XD
I'm still stuck on 4.0.1 on mine, and it came with yakju...so maybe the update still hasn't finished rolling out? Anyone have any other thoughts?

Stock bootloader? There is no other kind at the moment. And besides, it does not affect anything. Stock radio? Again, all radios available at the moment are stock. I think what you meant to say was the yakju radio. Although it is needed to install the OTA update, it will not affect you getting notification of an OTA update if you are using a radio that comes from a different stock build other than yakju.

Yes, I would recommend flashing the latest yakju image (if you don't mind wiping, as unlocking the bootloader will wipe your device). See link in my signature for how to flash to the latest yakju version.

No one knows the logic behind how updates are pushed out. Just flash the latest build, or update your current build (if your bootloader is unlocked). See link in my signature for how to update your build.
thank you guys especially efrant for your advise ijust rooted and unlocked my gnexus and flashed the last google image using tooklit so easy
I recibe the OTA update one hour ago, the problem with OTA updates is solved.
I currently have a Telus GSM GNex 4.0.4 flashed to the yakju builds so I can receive the OTA updates directly from Google. If I install the stock Jelly Bean 4.1 ROM, will I be able to receive subsequent OTA updates from Google?
Thanks.

yes
AFAIK, for flashing 4.1, u need CWM. if u have CWM, u cant get OTA.

We need to be a bit clearer than that in order to not cause confusion:
1) CWM is needed to flash JRN84D in current form, but that doesn't mean that CWM needs to be installed on your device. Booting CWM is fine.
2) All stock ROMs (including JRN84D) which have been updated from a previous build via an OTA update have two files in /system which re-flash the stock recovery on EVERY reboot. So, even if you did have CWM flashed, it would be gone unless you modified the ROM.
3) Even if you do keep CWM, you will still receive the notification that there is an OTA update, and you can install it -- it just won't install automatically. You need to manually download it, re-boot into CWM and flash it. But it will work fine.
Considering the fact that my device is rooted, and I have installed Android 4.1 (Jelly Bean) by my own when it was still an unofficial version of this OS, can my device be updated to OTA update or I must get the 4.1.1 version manually by myself?. In the case I can't get the OTA update, would it be possible to stop getting notifications about a new update which is available. The constant notifications are driving me crazy. Thanks for your attention.
1 no you can't do ota updates 2 you should just flash one of many outstanding ROMs on this great website and then you will no longer get ota messages

If all you have done is flashed the 4.1 image from Google I/O, and rooted, then yes you can take the OTA. If you have a custom recovery, edited system files, non-stock bootloader and radio, you can't OTA.

As martonikaj mentioned, if you installed the stock 4.1 ROM (along with the XXLF1 radio), then you can accept the update to 4.1.1. If you installed some other 4.1 ROM that is not stock (like bigxie's ROM or something else), then no, you cannot install the update. Updates are only for stock ROMs.
If you don't want to update but want to get rid of the notification, have a look here.
I am on an at&t m9. Unlocked, rooted, and s-off. I am on firmware 1.32.502.9 right now and want to update my firmware to the latest and greatest. At&t pushed an update ota which I obviously can't take.
How do I go about updating said firmware?
You can either restore a nandroid of the original OS (provided you did not root before doing the original backup), take the OTA update, then re-root, and flash a new ROM, or wait for one of the more capable members here to package the firmware as a zip file and flash it separately.
I'm on stock rooted 4.4.2 on my Sprint L710t (spark version). I got a notification for an OTA update yesterday coming in at 70.5MB and states that they're security updates and bug fixes. Did anyone else get this and do they know what these changes are? Will I lose root if I update?
I'm currently on OA3 baseband. Thanks.
I have the same baseband but have not received that message. Did you except the update or at least let it download the update then copy it from your system files to your internal or external sdcard? If you download it and save it could you upload it so I can get it from you and look through the update?

Idk if you will loose root access or if it will even allow you update since you are rooted cause you have modified the system file a little! I got the update this morning finally but I couldn't take it cause I have TWRP recovery and not stock recovery and I have deleted quiet a system apps. But you pull the update file from your cahce folder and open the zip file up and look at what all gest updated! The bootloader, kernel, modem and a bunch of system apps and CSC codes are all updated so far that I can see.
I haven't been able to update either since I'm using TWRP. Do you think it's worth going back to stock recovery in order to update? How would I even do that on OA3? I've seen a lot of tutorials on getting stock back on NF4 baseband, but nothing on OA3.

I'm sure it would help at least with our service cause they did update our modem! I'm not sure either about what is the best way to try to update. I'm running a custom kernel and TWRP so I would have to flash the NF4 package and see see it would give me ota-update for OA3 then allow me to update to the new L710TVPU0AOF2. Thats the new baseband. I'm not really sure I haven't ever had the problem of worrying about stock ota-updates. I've always normally had devices that developers post the update firmware packages online for us! I've asked Chainfire if he thinks we could flash the update using Flashfire but he hasn't replied yet. I don't think we will be able to but it's worth a shot to ask.
I just received the same update. Is there a way to disable it
How can I upload it?? Where is the update downloaded into??
