Just got my new Sprint Nexus. I read a few days ago that Sprint released 4.2 for the Samsung Nexus. Yet when I update either OTA or threw the PC it says that 4.1.1 is the latest, did I miss something?
They are probably staggering the roll out, keep checking over the next few days or try the Sprint dev subforum for a zip or a link to the download.

so is this update coming from Verizon or google?
Sounds like a VZW release sometime in January.

This will likely be pushed out with Android 4.0.3 and the latest leaked radios, maybe little different.
And really, does it matter WHO'S servers its coming from? We're still getting it.
Hello everyone,
I was wondering how many of my fellow Canucks have received the 4.0.2 update. My cousin in Toronto received the OTA update last week. I am in London and have yet to receive the update. Also, do they roll it out based on IMEI number, phone number, location, etc? Thanks!
I haven't gotten it yet, I have a feeling it's been pulled because it broke the Market somehow, and NFC was also reported to be missing.
I heard of people receiving the OTA notification in early March and then apparently it was pulled because, as you say, it was inactivating NFC and the Market. However, my cousin received his update just last week and I assumed that they had begun to release it again. The Google Play update fixed the market issue anyway, but I have not asked him if his NFC works.
It seems to me that they should just forget about 4.0.2 at this point and just wait until the next revision. Might be another several months for us Canucks though lol
With Bell and got the phone release date.
I got the update when if first appeard in Canada (early March). But had to fix the NFC issue with a patch and is working fine now.
My wife's gnex on Rogers (bought on Rogers official rls date ~ mid Jan) has not received the update however.
Sammy Canada confirmed it had pulled the update due to "issues"
I didn't have it about 2 weeks after the update first went live, so I gave up and flashed a 4.0.3 ROM.
Same here, I didn't get it on Telus Vancouver so I flashed AOKP.

I have limited experience in this regard, but I may just flash to CM9 once it is released. I'm disappointed that Canada is so far behind the rest of the world when it comes to these updates.
Even if they had not encountered any problems, we would have officially received 4.0.2 several months after the rest of the world right?
Either flash the yakjuux 4.0.2 update yourself (see here), or flash the yakju 4.0.2 images yourself (see here). Problem solved.

Apart from being on the latest and greatest, which is why many of us bought Nexus phones, is there something in 4.0.2 you really really want? I'm still on stock yakjuux on 4.0.1 and have not yet received the OTA update either, but looking at the unofficial changelogs, I don't think there is anything in the update that would change my user experience

thanks to Verizon Wireless screwing over my what was suppose to be short day but end up longer as after half an hour of talking to a rep on the phone i end up going to the store as i completely lost voice + text + data on my device because another rep at some local store disabled my sim card and transfered it over another unit which my brother was trying to activate for himself...
so instead of 3:30pm, I've got home at ~4pm (thanks to my suzuki gsx-r600
while i was at the store i asked rep what's up with update for my galaxy nexus? how come gsm version got it and even nexus s got it, why not me? my phone is acting up every now and then sometimes even reboots on me and radio don't get me started on that, so the guy told me verizion supposedly *already* rolling it out as we speak (which was today april 5th) and they're supposedly doing in small batches (which i assume someone would've posted it here long time ago if that was really the case) and i am also going get it any time now...
am I missing something??
When I bought my Galaxy Nexus from Verizon three weeks ago, the rep told me they were rolling out 4.0.5 "as of this morning".
Don't believe a word they say.

what a bunch of (beep), i (beep) (beep) them, those mother(beep).
They'll tell you anything they can to get you to leave satisfied. The average CS rep at a Verizon store has no idea.
First clue the rep was lying:
Their lips were moving.
Second clue the rep was lying:
The ota pdf for the Nexus would have been updated beforehand.
so I called Verizon again today and tech support rep told me that they moved rolling out to early May now... can anyone confirm any of that? I just dont believe a word they're saying anymore...
Root your damn phone and install the update yourself. Never depend on a carrier to push an update and don't cry when they take forever.

as much as i want to root my phone, i really wish to wait 'till it gets updated w/ latest and greatest 4.0.4 or 4.0.5 then root that!
According to Sprint rep...started rolling it out to NOTE2 yesterday. Any one gotten this?? I am asking Sprint tech support but no info yet.
Please stick to the already existing threads before opening new ones.

Have a great day!
Okay this is kind of weird because I know T-Mobile has not rolled out the update. In fact I believe they are completely refusing to do it to force people to resort to upgrading phones. But I got this system update on my phone this morning and I am wondering if anybody has gotten it as well or has any explanation. I haven't downloaded it yet.
T-Mobile SGH-M919. Weird because it says the GPE
it has been said before if you would have searched, but it is a patch for the stagefright vulnerability and that is about it.

GPe? That's odd, unless you're running a custom ROM

Which rom where you using when you get this message?
GPE has already been updated to 5.1, so even if that is LP it's still older than current.
I have been calling TMOBILE (US) every week since May to find out where the LOLLIPOP UPGRADE is for my SGH-M919 ((Galaxy S4) and finally about 3 weeks ago I got them to confess that SAMSUNG HAD GIVEN THEM TO UPDATE FOR THIS PHONE - BUT, THEY WERE NOT GOING TO RELEASE IT.
When I asked why, I was given the B***S*** answer that there were known bugs and all other providers had problems with it - I said they were corrected in the 5.01, and 5.1 versions - he then basically (without saying it) stated they want people to buy newer devices.
I told him I OWN MY DEVICE, THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH IT, and I WILL ROOT IT AND PUT A CUSTOM ROM ON IT.
I was told, you will void your warranty.....I rolled with laughter and said...it is over 2 years old - THERE IS NO F***ING WARRANTY anymore...and I hung up.
*BH*
Yet another great example of why I jumped ship for Cricket. Tmo does all this uncarrier crap because they say they care about the consumer, but when it's all on the table they're just like Verizon or Sprint or AT&T. If you're on older hardware, then they don't care about you. You're a number that they added years ago, and all that matters are the numbers they'll add today and tomorrow.
I'm still rockin' my S4 after all this time. When I'm ready to upgrade, I'll be buying my phone unlocked and ready to go with Cricket. Now that the new Nexus devices are on their way, I'm just going to save up and splurge on the Nexus 6P and not have to worry about bull**** carriers screwing me on updates and security fixes.
I buy T-Mo phones because they traditionally have unlocked bootloaders, so I can flash whatever ROM I like. ATT, and I believe Cricket, tends to use phones where the bootloader is locked down tightly. I like the open Nexus platform and am also considering one in the future...
