OTA Problem

My buddy has the dinc and it is stock and he does not want it rooted at all but when i connect it to wifi it won't find the OTA is just keeps saying he's up to date and its on 2.2 anyone have any ideas?

They roll out these updates in batches. More than likely your buddy just isn't in any of the groups that have rolled out so far. Verizon does this so their servers aren't always clogged with people trying to download.
My girlfriend is in the same boat. Just be patient.

I don't know if VZW does this but my brother is on T-Mobile. He went to the store and they updated his phone there by plugging it in and updating it. Might want to ask them.

I called Verizon last weekend because my wife's stock non rooted dinc hadn't received the update - they talked to an engineer who said they were still going out, and that they didn't have a timeline for completion. That was 8 days ago and we are still waiting. The good that's come of this is that I'm actually considering getting s-off on her phone just so when we sell them next April hers will be worth more.

Does anyone else get the sense that Verizon has stopped updates in the last few days? I'm probably wrong, but it doesn't seem like there have been any word on the update still going out. I wonder if it was halted because of some of the issues that were found (such as wrong screen size and the Sprint error).
I wouldn't be surprised if we saw another OTA (version 4 perhaps) rolled out in another month or so to correct those issues -- and maybe then the update will reach everyone.

Stuck on 4.0.1 and somewhat confused

So I just bought the GSM version of the Galaxy Nexus. It is yakju and I am using it with AT&T. No matter how many times I've tried I cannot get the phone to do an OTA update to at least 4.0.2, let alone 4.0.4. So I have a couple questions, keeping in mind that I am not particularly interested in rooting and would rather just do an OTA update.
1. Will the 4.0.2 update eventually come through if I wait? I don't mind waiting, but I don't want to wait indefinitely without making any progress.
2. If I do want to or need to do a manual update, can I go straight from 4.0.1 to 4.0.4?
Like I said, I would prefer to wait for the OTA update as I'm having no issues with 4.0.1 right now.
On a completely unrelated note, I have 14 days to return this phone. If you were me, would you return it and wait for the One X. I like the idea of having a raw android Google phone, but the One X seems attractive.

I think you should get an iphone.
iphone. helping computer illiteracy become popular since 2007.

I received my Nexus about a week ago. Within 5 minutes of turning it on I received the 4.02 OTA update. 10 minutes later I was rooted and running CM9 so I can't say if I would have received the 4.04 OTA update.

get stock images and flash to 4.0.4.

Then just wait for the OTAs.

There are already lots of spammy nerd bashing threads on this topic. No one can make this decision for you.

You have a few options....
1. Download Factory images for 4.0.4 from Google and use Galaxy Nexus Toolkit to flash (you will lose all your data and pictures, videos, music)
2. Root your phone (you'll still lose your data because you have to unlock your bootloader)
3. Wait for the 4.0.2 update than the 4.0.4 update
Your choice
When you get the HTC One X you gonna be saying how much you wish you had AOSP

Or when Android 5.0, "when will One X be getting Android 5.0?!"

Same Here
I guess were both on the same boat Except i am on Tmobile. As soon as i unboxed and setup my Gnex this past friday i was expecting an OTA update to 4.0.4. But appearantly that wasn't the case as i am still stuck on 4.0.1 two days later. I am really hoping i get that OTA soon...there is no way i am rooting ever again. My last phone which was a Samsung Vibrant had a custom ICS rom...everything was well until i was greeted by the deadly "Encryption Unsuccessful" screen not knowing what to do i hit reset phone. 1 min later my phones only use was as a door stop.
I know this may sound kind of silly but maybe we haven't received our updates because its the weekend . Im waiting till monday to see if i get the OTA update. Hopefully it arrives soon.

Most OTAs roll out in groups. Well at least from the last time I did a OTA .. I guess thats how they still work. Only so many users get them at a time. Not everyone who has a gnex get it at once

Now that I see other people having this problem, I think OTA updates for 100% stock Android 4.0.1 Samsung i9250 Galaxy Nexus are just not happening at all for now... (verbiage/garbiage deleted
As for my Nexus One(s)... (I'll just say I never saw this happen)
EDIT:
At about 8pm MDT (GMT-06:00) in the US, my i9250 finally updated from 4.0.2 to 4.0.4. I consider this an important validation of the integrity of my device. Earlier today I flashed 4.0.2 but still had to wait.
So clearly there was a period of days (March 30 to April 2 at least) that OTA updates where not happening for the i9250. This was alarming because I've rolled my i9250 back to 100% stock Android 4.0.1 several times after playing with different ROMs. Each time it quickly updated to 4.0.2. This time it took a few days. For a while I was worried my phone had a problem.

I just rolled back to a stock ROM 4 days ago.
But did only get 1 OTA update immediately after first boot. The one from ITL41D to ITL41F (4.0.1).
No OTA to 4.0.2 or even 4.0.4 yet. (All imgs are stock ITL41F with locked bootloader of course)

Did you get the Verizon OTA 4.04 update?

This is for people who haven't already manually rooted/updated their phones.
If you did get the OTA update, I'd be interested in what city/state you got it. I'm wondering if it is regional, random or perhaps by SN or billing date.

Yeah, got it yesterday.

I had flashed back to stock 4.0.2 last night and didn't get it. I checked this morning and didn't get it. I re-rooted back into my twrp backup until the OTA is more heavily rolled out.

Nothing yet in Dallas. Had the phone since day 1.

Not yet. I bought the phone in late December, live in N. VA but spend more waking hours in Washington DC.

It was built at last month.
How could you have received it months ago?

Got the update a few hours ago by doing the "Framework Services" trick. Funny thing is, I did it about 20 times this morning with no luck. I was bored and figured, why not try it again, and this time it pulled the update on the first try. Downloaded/Rebooted/Installed with no issues.
Am noticing the signal bars are now switched so that it more resembles the other phones (showing 3G signal strength instead of LTE). Also, the phone is A LOT snappier, especially in menus and the app drawer. It wasn't bad before, but I could definitely tell there was a slight stutter when scrolling through the widgets menu before. That's completely gone now, and it scrolls smooth as butter. Doesn't really make too much of a usability difference in the long run, but it's still good to see Google interested in working out little kinks like that to improve UI responsiveness.
Haven't had a chance to make calls yet, so that's yet to be seen, although I haven't had any of the audio issues everyone else is having.
Glad we finally got this.

My phone has cm9, so I'm not worried. My wife's phone is stock, unrooted, and she has not received the update. We are just north of Atlanta, Georgia.

I too was able to force the update by clearing data on "Google services framework" and then mashing the check now button like no tomorrow...

Galaxy Nexus GSM 4.1.2

Haven't heard any news of an ota to the gsm devices. Are they not getting it or am I not? I run a custom kernel and are rooted... but I have seen no news of a galaxy nexus ota.
Sorry if I missed the thread.
Thanks.

It's out on Google's factory image site. You can easily manually flash it

The OTA hasn't started rolling for any GNex devices. There's an image if you're on takju, but no OTA.

Nexus S ota lower memory use! Much better performance.
Just installed Jelly 4.1.2 on Nexus S device last night. I'm posting here to provide my experience. This phone is running like a new, better device. It is using half, HALF the sys memory than before. So far just sweet goodness. I recommend this update to all. Absolutely no problems thus far. I've tried things it didn't like in the past and it just keeps chugging along. I swear, EveryThing is faster. Will test batt life today when I go out, then report. This is only a .01 update! WOW! Thank you Google. Thank you T-Mobile. F'in awesome job. That is all.

I found a cwm that flashed system a while back and used that to upgrade to this version.

Where are you getting that system memory number from? It sounds a little suspect.

Ya it is true. I have update my galaxy nexus to 4.1.2 and its is slightly better than 4.1.1

tofmiller... Very Slight exaggeration : )
I understand. This thing has what 334mb avail for apps to RUN not store. Before OTA update, was using task managers and restarts to keep around 50-70 mb free. After update, without intervention, phone says around 100 mb free. I exaggerated a bit but not that much. I find, also, the system keeps things freed up. I have not killed any apps or cleared cache since I got the OTA last night. I got the update in the afternoon then went to my 27" iMac to try to get a feel of how well things were going for others.Things looked sort of OK, but not much info so I decided to pull the trigger last night around 8pm Pacific. Proceeded to run it ragged. Streaming movies to my Mac via Wi-Fi, no problem. Played the only 3 games I have installed right now, no problem. Checked mem, 92 mb free! Made sure all apps were not running, only Skifta. It's been over 12 hours, no prob.
So, for me, this old dog got a shot of steroids. I'm thinking this will probably be last u/d for this device.(but that's what I thought about 4.1.1). If some app devs stay cool, don't think I'll get new device 'till after my contract fully expires. Was thinking about upgrading handset at earliest time. Couple months before end. Now... i can get better deal from carrier. Or jump ship to Big Red. Just wanted to put some helpful info out there because it looked like most people were side-loading this thing.
Been trolling for some time. Finally found something worthy of this outstanding site. Usually-"I'M NOT WORTHY"
Started with Nexus 1(now wife's) Bought rebuilt Nexus S because of running out of memory all the time.Pulled the T-Mobile Sim out stuck it in here and it immediately started d/l 4.04. Wow Really didn't expect that, now this... NEXUS BABY-- ALL THE WAY. Tablet next! Hope I helped. usually -I'M NOT WORTHY-

I'm on stock GSM 4.1.1 and I'm a little concerned I haven't gotten 4.1.2 OTA yet. Any ideas?
I thought the manual flash from the website wipes your data.

Mr. ruggersvpunk ? I can't believe i'm gonna say this....
Hello ruggervpunk ?
I'm usually (or used to be) quite impatient about these sort of things. I've been using a Mac since 1986(not the same one : ) and had to have the latest greatest thing. Over time I've learned a tiny bit of patience. I've found in almost every case it's best to wait a bit.. Smarter to let those without some restraint be the guinea pigs. This has saved my ass in recent years. So, I guess I would advise you to wait for the OTA. Things can go wrong when loading from a website. I've done it(with my wife's phone) and once I thought i bricked it. If not for the Grace of God and this site, it would still be in that state.
So sir? Try to wait. 1 it's totally worth it , I don't know who your carrier is but if you've received an OTA before, you'll get it again. Just got mine yesterday from T-MOBILE. So far, everything works better. Much better than an unexpected .01 update. This has done as much or more in performance than 4.0.4 to 4.1.1. Really. Give it a couple of days. Good things come to those who wait. That's just a guy in S.F. who loves gadgets advice.
Good Luck
Richard

It rolls out in phases. The factory image will wipe data. But there is a cwm file that updates boot and system. Its essentially the ota except larger since its the entire system.

Well, I'm in the same boat with one huge exception.
My OTA update came yesterday and despite sitting right next to my wireless router it completely stopped downloading about halfway through. The option to resume the download is unselectable and if I ask it to check for an update it says that my current software is up to date. What gives?
