There is no such thing as a Verizon model or T-Mobile model. They are all the same. If you purchase one from T-Mobile, it is the exact same thing as if you purchased it from Google Play or Verizon.Verizon has nothing to go with this update, blame Google. We have one Verizon and two T-mobile models here, still no update as of right now 'June 14 2014 ' I live 20miles away from Google main office in Mountain view.
If Verizon insists on getting involved with the software, it effects ALL Nexus 7 LTE tablets, as the software is the same.
You still don't get it. I don't use Verizon. I use T-Mobile. But since Google designed the Nexus 7 to be compatible with Verizon, and advertised it that way, Verizon insists on being involved with the software and "approving" it even though it is a GSM device using open standards.Apple and Nexus product lines are not Verizon branded products. Not their business to push google or apple to give you latest os update. You can drop Verizon service today and install At&T sim tomorrow then blame At&T .
So how come apple people always getting their iOS iPhones & iPads updates on all devices (WiFI / LTE) and service providers simultaneously? Do you think Verizon have to approve all iOS updates too?Verizon insists on being involved with the software and "approving"
Yes.So how come apple people always getting their iOS iPhones & iPads updates on all devices (WiFI / LTE) and service providers simultaneously? Do you think Verizon have to approve all iOS updates too?
Yes. The software is the same regardless of what SIM you have in it or if you have one at all. In my opinion, that's how it should be, minus the Verizon getting involved part. GSM/LTE is an open standard, and shouldn't require any carrier input.So, you're saying that even though I bought my 7 from Best Buy unlocked (not associated with any provider), if I remove my V SIM and let it run WiFi only that Verizon has something to do with the release? Just asking.
