But 4.2.1 is still missing. I live in Bosnia...

Updates are generally spread over 2-3 days. The first of us got the update about 2 days ago, so while you're on the late end of the spectrum, it's not been long enough to think you've missed it or something. Time to practice patience.
 
Just got mine. Worth the wait as the butterieness is back

Just wait a few days. U have waited this long. I still don't have it n I'm OK with it. It takes a couple of weeks for all devices to get it once it's released.

O_o WISHING I HAD WAITED AND GOT THE NOTE 2, ANYONE WANNA TRADE? o>_<o~
 
still no update. Non-rooted. Tried manual update. Los Angeles

Wow.

Having had previous Android tablets that were not Nexus, it is amazing to see people wondering why they don't have an update mere days after it is released.

There are countless other Android tablets that are still on version 3.x and a TON of them still on 4.0.

Having owned a Toshiba and a Samsung tablet, both VERY slow to receive updates, I guess that I am still a bit surprised to see updates come faster than months after release.

That said, my Nexus already got 4.2.1. Yeah, it rocks.

Just curious, I wonder how this is being implemented?
random?
regions?
other??
I am new to the N7 (and android hand-held devices) and this is all new to me.

They send updates out in batches according to serial number. I don't know what order it is.

Recently (2 days ago) bought the Nexus 7, which came running 4.1.2.

In the 5 days since purchase I've been offered twice to install the update to Jelly Bean 4.2, and both times I've accepted. The phone reboots, I get the big green android, the it turns into a fallen over android with a red ! triangle coming out of its body.

After about 30 seconds it starts up again but remains on android 4.1.2 (I.e, not updated) and when I try to run the update, says there is no update available...

Any suggestions what's happening here?

Thanks in advance :-)
 
Do this to get the update right now, it might take a few times to make it work but it should eventually. Go to settings>application manager>select all apps by scrolling all the way to the right>scroll down to Google Services Framework>then clear data and force stop>back out and go to system update>and select update firmware and Samsung software it should say last update was in 1969. If it doesn't work the first time keep doing it. It worked the third try for me when I pushed 4.2 and worked the first time when I pushed 4.2.1

Thank you for the suggestion.

It does it, downloads the file which it claims is Android 4.2, restarts, then I get the 'fallen over android with red warning triangle',then comes back on, still with Android 4.1.2...

Any thoughts?
 
I have the same problem. I tried 4 times. I get red triangle exclamation error. I can't update from 4.1.1 to 4.1.2.

Update: Store replaced my nexus 7 with a new one. The new one updated without a glitch.

The only thing I can think of is download the stock file and do it through your computer. Look up qbking77.com or check out his YouTube videos on how to do this.
