P.S: im from Venezuela South America with Yakju 4.0.2

Just got the update. Yakju (UK import) using it in Canada. Took about an hour of repeatedly clearing and checking for updates. No rebooting done

So maybe rather than updates rolling out based on imei number it is actually some random variable created with goggle service framework data?

Are you completely stock?
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.

Modem version i747MVLLH1
http://www.sammobile.com/firmware/?page=3&model=SGH-I747M&pcode=BMC&os=1&type=1#firmware
Quoted from Mobile Syrup
"Samsung Galaxy S III (SGH-i747M) users today will be able to download an update over the air (OTA) that brings “improved stability”, bug fixes, better battery life and you can now adjust the screen brightness from the drop down menu. It’s still at OS 4.0.4 — no Jelly Bean yet — but we’re getting various tips that the Bell update is 100.27MB, while Rogers is 86.08MB. TELUS customers have also been pushed the update, no word yet on all the carriers who have the SGIII in their lineup."
The update should be waiting for you. If not, check Settings >> About Device >> Software Update.
had a notification this morning, pushed "later" then now can't do it

I'm with bell and the update was 86mb.
Nice to see they didn't bother to fix the standby battery usage issue. Then again, with how much power I seem to save when I'm in service area, I wonder sometimes if its really a misread at all
My update was around a 100MB. I noticed some changed settings in the camera app, the messenger moved the attachement icon to the side instead of underneath the send button, I noticed some setting changes in the settings (or maybe I didn't notice them)

Same thing happened to me yesterday. I'm still waiting. WTF?
I had to get my update via Kies, nothing came OTA.
Not a major issue on that, although after the update was pushed, my SD card was corrupted and had to be reformatted.
So make sure you either unmount or physically remove any external SD card, I lost all my photos :\
OTA update was waiting for my sasktel phone this morning when I woke up. My phone is rooted, so I was a little cautious to perform the update, but after reading around, it just breaks root.
Did the update at work, re-rooted, and away we go.
Only problem I've noticed thus far is that it broke the auto-detect of the headphone jack on my phone, which if I went and installed my PowerAmp, would be nothing at all.
Otherwise, phone seems snappier. I'll give it a full day tomorrow with my usual routine, to see how well it performs battery wise.
OTA upgrade Crashes my Email
I upgraded yesterday, on Bell
Since then, my exchange email crashes constantly, and now my touch wiz has started to randomly crash.
I reinstalled email, and still random crashing................not sure why
Anyone with ideas ?
thanks for your help !

First, try booting into recovery, wiping both dalvik and system cache and rebooting. If this does not resolve the issue, backup device, perform factory reset and restore device.

The Galaxy Nexus phones I bought of Google Play all got the 4.1.2 update... but the freebie phone I got when I attended Google IO still hasn't. Are the updates still rolling out or is something wrong here? Keep checking, but it never finds an update.

if your device is the same as the retail version then just manually flash the the update. You can download the image from Googles site.

I understood his post as what you had suggested, but I also felt compelled to point him into a direction that could get him current with everyone else if he chose to do so......basically I circumvented reasoning and gave a possible solution for him to mind juggle

confirmed. no update on my IO gnex either. wtf?
you are on xda.. download the toolkit, unlock bootloader and flash recovery on your gnex, download a rom/gapps and put it on your sd, flash the rom/gapps = problem solved
The point is not that he wants the update... its that Google has not pushed the update to the IO devices.

Well he may be waiting a very long time as IO devices are generally the very last to be updated.

If I have to flash it, eventually I will. I wanted to keep this as my stock dev device for development and would've expected that the devices given to the developers at Google IO wouldn't be receiving the updates late... assuming that this thing will get an update at sometime in the future. Very surprising since I would've thought the phones handed to devs, if any, should be first in line to receive updates, unless something has gone wrong with my update.

Sorry to hear it. I fully agree but I think Google view is that it is a dev device so you can update with the 4.1.2 firmware currently available. Send Google an email and see what they say.
Good luck...

Well, I called Samsung and they said it was the carrier's responsibility. Uh, what carrier? This is a GSM phone that's not from T-Mobile. Weird, I figure their staff just can't handle the question. I get the number for their "expert" support. He says to talk to Google.
I hunt the contact number for Google devices and get a nice guy who has me turn on airplane mode, then turn on wifi. Then clear data for Google app services. Check the about settings, last update check was in 1969. <sigh>, yes, I've done this, but I'll try again. No update found.
He said that it was strange. The update should've been pushed out to it by now and something was wrong, but couldn't help. The only thing left to do was to ship it to Samsung and have them flash the ROM on it.
Forget that, I gave up and I flashed the 4.1.2 factory image myself. I guess I could've saved myself some time by doing it in the first place, but I'm still curious and would like to know why I got the 4.1.1 OTA but 4.1.2 didn't work. Weird.
FYI, my IO nexus just got the update to 4.1.2 today, almost a full month after it started rolling out.
This thread is strictly for people who are waiting for the OTA , no posts about switching to takju allowed or like the last thread the moderator will close it. In this thread yakju users report if they got the ota update , and also talk about there frustrations while waiting for the ota. thats it .
I think there is a problem with the ota , that has to be the reason for the hold up . If there wasn't no problem , they would have rolled it out by now . Hopefully google gets it fixed soon and we too can enjoy some 4.2 goodness
Yeah, its very delayed, this might be like when 4.1 came out.
Yakju users didnt get it till 4.1.1 and by then a bunch of people had jumped to the takju ship.
Well here we are impatienly waiting for Ota
Ps: another rule, dont post stuff like all those "ive got it but it didnt work" or "mine magically transformed into a takju"
False hope sucks and drives the check now button spammers crazy
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 2
Please don't forget: anyone who receives the yakju OTA, please pull the logcat before applying the update, so that everyone else can install the update manually
yep still waiting! Yakju user/
Updated my N7 a few hours ago.. so far pretty nice i like brightness slider.. finally works like it should. Power toggles use to stop youtube playback when you wanted to adjust brightness now it's does not affect video playback! Already disabled power toggles in notification menu left one on the home screen.

I'm pretty sure 4.1 was only a developer's preview build that came with phones given away at Google I/O. It was never an OTA, therefore it was never "delayed".
