Nexus 7 (2013) cellular still no update! - Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A

I have not used this thing in a few months so I decided to turn it on. I am currently running 5.1.1. I decided to see if there is an update for this device. No update! How is it that a Nexus device still has not been upgraded to 6.1? I thought the point of Nexus devices was to be updated quicker.

If you have not received the OTA, use ADB to flash the latest factory image from Google.

There appear to be several versions. How do I know which one is the right one?

If yours is the cellular variant as you say, download the latest mobile factory image. MOB30M for razorg

4.0.2 OTA is rolling out... again...

As title.
Post here if you received the 4.0.2 recently.
Can you tell us if this "new" 4.0.2 supports the USB Host feature?
How are we suppose to tell which 4.0.2 we have?

take a look at the build.
the "old" one should be ICL53F but I don't think that there is a new one or an old one.
I think that every 4.0.2 will be the same ICL53F.
I hope that someone who received the 4.0.2 today can confirm that he received the ICL53F.
I did a complete factory fastboot restore of 4.0.1 today and got the OTA 4.0.2 delivered a few minutes later, so I guess I have it. How do I test USB host feature? And it is ICL53F

Just checked my phone and 4.0.2 update is there...better late than never
Yes, I can confirm it. I just received 4.0.2 update on my Gnex, don't really notice anything yet.
My update came about 2 hours ago.
8.8MB - ICL53F and baseband is now KK6

Don't have to anymore - I just got the OTA...
Should I install it or hold off for 4.0.3?

If you do not install it, you certainly will not be able to install future OTA updates...
i got the image but when I hit update, i got the icon of an open green android with a red triangle indicating an error. is this because my 4.0.1 is bootloader unlocked/rooted with CMW installed?
got it in NYC I'm on T-Mobile.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using XDA App
No update for me here in NYC. I have the UK yakju version on AT&T.
I still don't understand they're not releasing 4.0.3. Many times better than 4.0.2 with great battery life, amazing performance and not a single reboot! My Nexus felt laggy and unstable before 4.0.3...
Do you guys feel that 4.0.1 is better than 4.0.2? If so, I will hold off on updating until 4.0.3 or better rolls out...

It is because you have CWM installed, not because your bootloader is unlocked. But it doesn't really matter. Look for a thread in the general section started by me that gives you a step-by-step on how to install an OTA with CWM.

I wonder why they delayed this update and if they made any slight changes?
I would assume they havnt since the build is exactly the same, just seems weird that it was delayed.
hopefully 4.0.3 isnt far away now

[Q] I have my phoen flashed to YAKJU, why am I not getting update?

I flashed my phone to YAKJU for the sole purpose of getting faster updates (directly from google), but I didnt get them. does that mean I not have to manually flash every update?
What version number are you running then?

Be patient. Not everyone gets the update at the same time. It might take a few days before you get it.

when did you flash yakju and what updates haven't you gotten?
Probably 4.1.1 since there is no yakju for 4.1.2
Beamed from my Grouper.
wait so all that work I did was only flashing 4.1.1? will there be a yakju for 4.1.2?

No never. Not for you at least. Google has a whiner blacklist and you are on it.
Seriously, there is no OTA out yet for ANY Galaxy Nexus variant. The only 4.1.2 ROM out yet is the factory image for "takju". Flash it if you can't wait or be patient for a few days.

You didn't notice during all your work what the version number was you where flashing? It says it clearly right on the factory image page.

Judging from all his replies, he flashed Yakju 4.1.1
Yeah. What I don't get is how he doesn't know what he flashed.
You should always know what files you're flashing to your phone. So you don't break your phone

Flashed to Yakju, but unable to update to android 4.1
My device is a Samsung Galaxy Nexus i9250 and I was on 4.0.4. I flashed to yakju (had the samsung variant for Middle East earlier) based on the instructions in androidforums (instructions here were difficult for me to follow), so that I'd get updates directly from google. Can't provide the androidforums link since I am a new member (WTF is that, really??).
As directed in the link, I downloaded samsung drivers and firmware, installed the drivers and then used the firmware to flash 4.0.1. The method did not root my device (double-checked that using the root checker app).
It updated to 4.0.2 through wi-fi. After that, it was not updating to 4.0.4 through wi-fi, but updated instantly as soon as I switched to my mobile network, and I have no idea why that happened. I am in UAE, and my carrier is Etisalat, FWIW.
Anyhow, now I'm not getting the 4.1 update either through wi-fi or mobile. When I click on system update, it shows that the update is downloading, and nothing downloads eventually and I get a message intimating me that the download has failed and that I can retry the download.
I have tried the usual trick: clearing google services framework cache and then restarting the phone,hasn't worked.
Can someone help please? I'm closer to a noob than a geek, as you would've figured out by now. So do bear in mind that I need detailed instructions.. :laugh:
Thanks in advance.

OTA update LMY48T on WiFI version ?

Just received an OTA update and was quick to press Install but it was only LMY48T (from LMY48M, never rooted). Tried googling and all I see the 7 (2013) WiFi was suppose to go from LMY48M straight to MRA58K and LMY48T was only a security update for Nexus 6, 9, and 10 which was required before going to M. Should I still try to flash MRA58K manually?
I've just had the same. Odd isn't it?

Ditto
LMY48T has now appeared on the Google factory image web site. We must have received this OTA update before this was posted. OTA to 6.0 must now be soon.
Trev
Me 2
argh, ditto! I have a notification that an update is available, cool! 9MB only, the LMY48T
Even I received a quick security update for Nexus 7 2013 (LMY48T) and is listed under factory images in Google developers (developers.google.com/android/nexus/images) site now. Seems like Nexus 7 got that security update too. Also Nexus 4 got that security update(LMY48T) too.
So Nexus 4,6,7,9,10 got those updates. Hopefully will get Marshmallow update soon.
My Nexus 4 also got this update. According to the Stagefrigt detector app it fixes all known Stagefright vulnerabilities.
Your Nexus 7 2013 will get Marshmallow. Nexus 4, Nexus 7 2012 and Nexus 10 won't.
So is there a link anywhere for a, OTA link for the Nexus 7 (2013), from this new build number, {OTA update from LMY48T to MRA58K}? Where is the new link? / There seems to be one or more devices' with the LMY48T to Marshmallow, but I do not see one for the Nexus 7 (2013).

I too cannot find the appropriate Marshmallow OTA for LMY48T. I tried the update for LMY48M but that did not work.
anyone got a solution for this? cheers
This is so annoying. Is there a way to roll back the security update to sideload the available OTA, because otherwise it's getting a fingerprint mismatch.
Should be out in about a week

I messaged the Google Dev team on Twitter and they said it should be out in a week or so.
Installing the official Google marshmallow 58k factory image is no more difficult than installing a sideload 48t to 58k image.... Just install the full fresh 58k image and be done. Take control. You can't complain about not having the latest when it's there for the taking. You just have to do it.

I thought sideloading the complete image would wipe the device. That is what everyone is trying to avoid.
If that isn't the case, then bonus!!

No I haven't heard or seen anything yet. They said about a week or so, it might be a little longer still.
You can just tweet them yourself. @googledevs and you can also check the hashtag #ghelp as well.
I have the LMY48T trying to get to marshmallow, but surely something is jacked up with my system and adb.. I do i adb restart to recovery, and get no command, so i then i push the buttons to set to install a ota, on my pc says no device when i try to side load. weird cuz it let me reboot using adb.
Finally got OTA update and went straight from LMY48T to MRA58V and apps/games seem to launch so much faster.

Android Nougat (final preview) factory reset => M?

So I just got Nexus 5x and signed up for the Android N Developer Preview Program. It upgraded my 5x to Nougat Preview 5 OTA. I'm wondering if I do a factory reset, would it bring my phone back to the old marshmallow ROM? Thanks!
No, you have to opt out of the beta, and they will push an OTA to your phone to downgrade

Factory reset doesn't change the OS version you are on. So you will still be on N.
I concur with what the previous two posts stated. Factory Resetting currently cannot change your OS on any official channels of Android

If you think logically, for that to happen the phone would have to have a permanent store of the "factory" ROM for the device. As that is well over 1GB that wouldn't make sense.

Lol. The problem is some people (even ones that think logically) simply don't understand how any of this stuff works. Hence the reason there are toolkits... for a Nexus!

No man, go to where you sign up for beta, in there you will have the option to opt out the beta and then a update via OTA will arrive so you can downgrade, but a factory reset will be done, so make a backup

Verizon specific 7.1.2 build?

Anyone gotten this build via OTA? I got impatient and flashed the factory images. Just curious about that weird build number...https://www.reddit.com/r/GooglePixe...nyone_seen_nhg47k_in_the_wild_might_or_might/

I thought I was the only one, I didn't get the OTA yet either, I'm still waiting even though it's supposed to be out and Verizon normally has it ready to download immediately when they say it's ready on their software update page.
I haven't heard anyone on Verizon getting an OTA yet, which is odd like you implied. I wonder what they're holding off for. It also didn't mention the Android version bump in their notes.
Well that helps, I have a play store phone but Verizon service and I haven't been able to get OTA yet even when I tell it to go look. I guess I will have to wait until Verizon gets going on this. Taking the sim card out and rebooting does not help.

Link for what? Sorry I'm confused lol.
Link for the OTA. I sideloaded the E build, but wouldn't mind putting on the K build
Any time there is an update I just grab it from https://developers.google.com/android/images. I haven't tried flashing the OTA from the page since I usually grab the full factory image (I don't mind starting over lol). I am on Verizon and my build number after I flash the factory image is N2G47E. There are no Verizon apps on the images , but during set up it will prompt to download all that Verizon crap-ware, which you can cancel or uninstall.
As of last night, Verizon has released the K build, which is not up on the developer site. Must be something in there that is better than the E build on their network. Just an FYI.

I did the same thing earlier this week. Just checked for updates and nothing. Hope I am not hosed lol.
I ended up with the Verizon version OTA last night (non rooted, google play phone on Verizon service). I did not notice any Verizon-ware installed on the phone, at least not yet. Seems pretty flawless so far.

I would be concerned with the Verizon firmware locking the bootloader on Google Play store Pixels
I don't think that's how it works.
After the frustration it took for me to get stock 7.1.2 on my PXL, I'll wait to see how people like the K build before I consider going back to 7.1.1 so I can be recognized and offered the OTA.
No one has the OTA file yet? Assume that I can't to back to 7.1.1 to get this OTA? I sideloaded the E build earlier this week.

There's always loading the 7.1.1 factory image back, but you can only do that when unlocked. I just hope this is a one-off, because over time it might become 'a thing' if people who sideloaded are on a different release track as others'. It would be nice to know if this is just 7.1.2 with VZW branding, or if it gives better performance on Verizon's network, but evidently we're too dumb to understand exactly what's different between stock 7.1.2 and their version.
It seems to bounce back and forth, sometimes there is a Verizon specific firmware sometimes there isn't, but it would be nice to know before side loading how many branches of the firmware there will be.

I am not unlocked so I have no option of doing that. I had no clue there would be a Verizon specific build or what I have not sideloaded earlier this week. Guess I have to learn patience LOL.
