You need to be rooted to manually update. Ive always been rooted so not sure how long amazon typically takes to update. Its been 4 days so id think youd have it by now. Maybe contact amazon?

Was my phone updated??

I think my phone was updated to the newest version from the OTA update....
Can someone post all system info so I can check it out??
go to settings and look for about phone and software info and look at the softwarennumber if u updated it will say 1.32.651.6
My phone still on 1.32.651.1, but when I search for update, it said no update.
Where did you search? via the Android settings program or the HTC thing?

Is your phone rooted? When my phone was rooted it did not find the update, although maybe the timing was coincidental. I went back to stock and then was able to find the update.

Evo will not OTA update to .6 software

Right now my evo is stuck on the original .1 software. When go to firmware update and htc software update it does not show that any updates are available. The only thing I have done to my phone is used unrevoked. What is the best way to get the .6 OTA update. I know I could go through the rooting process and do it that way, but I don't want to wipe my phone and would just like to do the regular update. Thanks for the help

Reboot and do not unrevoke and try to update.
If that doesn't work, *2

I just rebooted and went directly to software update and it still is not finding the .6 update. I work for sprint and I tried checking for an update on one of our demo phones and it did the same thing, so that rules out it being related to unrevoked.
If I call customer service, all their going to tell me to do is take it to a service center. Any more suggestions?

Bought a new Nexus... need help

Hi,
I bought a new nexus yesterday, just found out with android system info app that its a yakjuux! meaning all downloads will be done via Samsung.
It has android 4.0.1. I wanted to check, whats the latest ICS running on yakjuux handsets? if 4.0.2 than how to get it and and is there a manual way to pull the update if its released.
Also, can anyone recommend a good software to transfer data files from desire HD to nexus? would appreciate the help...
thanks
just go to about phone, and tell it to update, should go straight to 4.0.2 , mine did atleast, though not for long since I went and started custom rom'd it up (as usual)
If you want to have the most recent updates, you can change your phone to Yakju here. (the most recent for Yakju is 4.0.4) For transferring data between phones/roms, I would recommend Titanium Backup Pro. It is definitely worth your money.

i checked multiple times but it says your current software is up to date...
if i stay on my current ROM, would i ever get an update? is there any way to find out some tentative schedule regarding android updates?
thanks
had same problem then installed this:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...SwxLDEsImRlLmNicnVlZ2cub2ZmaWNpYWx1cGRhdGUiXQ..
from the market it tells you if your phone will get updates.
Try this it worked for me 4.0.2 - > 4.0.4 go to Settings -> Apps -> All -> Google Services Framework ( just delete cache/clear data)-> then go to the About and should see an strange date for last checked and click Check Now try more then once for me it worked on the ... 4-5 time can't remember.

thanks for the tip but not worked for me... the date was set to 1/1/1970 but after ever trying 8-10 times, it did not work.
Well not being a stock google image there could be quite a delay http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1419170 however this build (yakjuux) seems to have both updates uploaded which means someone somewhere has got it and shared it.
So you have two options root try with this updates manually...
or put a stock image from google code web site
You can always wait ofcourse ... I didn't

thanks for the info. Considering my knowledge is very limited, is it safe to put the stock image? what might be the consequences if something doesnt work out. In case of some problem, i will be stuck with no real help around.

You can find the manual update to yakjuux 4.0.2 here (yakjuux ICL53F from ITL41F): http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1419170
I received an update to that version from Google. I believe Google stopped the updates, though, because after the update there was a problem with the Market. However, if you do a factory reset from settings menu after the update, it resolved the Market issues for me.
I have not tried the yakjuux IMM48 update yet, because i'm not convinced that it is a current 4.0.4 update.

Flash the yakju build.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
Flashing to yakju is the best choice if you don't used it much... If you don't wanna wipe your phone, there is a way to root without unlocking. Then you can flash to latest yakuux
Hope that helped

You must be rooted to manually change firmware. It is not possible to manually update a nonrooted Fire TV.

The way to upgrade on a non-rooted device is to unblock the Amazon IP's & do a check for updates until it updates itself... Depending on what FW you are at.. It might need multiple updates to get to the latest one...

Did you get the update? Locked bootloader should not matter to folks who do not want root

It's there if you check for update in About phone in settings...I fear the lock so I'm not gonna try it
