Hello,
I have had my Nexus 7 since Christmas day, but it won't update to 4.2.1.
When I 1st switched it on, it immediately notified me that a system update was available to version 4.2.1. The nexus powers itself off then on, the Android icon came up with a blue progress bar, but when the blue progress bar gets to about halfway, the Android icon changes to lying on it's back with a red exclamation mark above it. It stays like this for a moment, then powers off then on, and when I check in the Settings, it is still running 4.1.2.
It has notified of the update twice more since then but the same thing has happened both times when I have tried to update. When I check for system updates in the Settings - About tablet menu, it just tells me that the system is up to date.
I have had a look round on Google etc, and can find a lot of information about manually updating Nexus 7 to 4.2.1 but I don't have the knowledge/confidence to manually update!
Has anyone else been having the same problem, or is there anyway of "forcing" my Nexus to show that an update is available. I did read somewhere about changing the nexus' date back a year or two, but that didn't work for me.
Any help would be much appreciated.
