I received my nexus yesterday and 5 minutes after I connected to Wi-Fi I received the jelly bean update!

Bought the GNEX from google play on July 1st got it on the 6th. Had not received 4.1 OTA yet so I just tried your trick. Did it 3 times cleared cache, force stop. On the 3rd it kicked in.

cheers

I have a GSM-version yakjuxw build, and no Jelly Bean yet. And I fear it will be similar to ICS 4.0.4 update. That one came first in the end of March / early April from Google, but I got the update just recently from Samsung, on 2nd July. It took nearly 3 months more!

I probably wait to early August and if the update doesn't come by then, I will flash to takju. Won't be fun, have looked various instructions and IMO it's a mess.

I had that same build and ended up flashing to yakju. Honestly the best thing to do is to get off the those variant builds and get on the official Google builds.

mine is yakjukr, it's too bad...

since i don't want to flash my phone to yakju, looks like the only thing i can do is praying for samsung rolling out the updates ASAP.

Not going to happen ASAP, or any time soon for that matter. If you know Samsung, you know they take forever with rollouts. You're going to be waiting for a long while.

Just flash it. You'll be glad you did.

I HAVE IT! Since Saturday, but was a bit lax. Got it, it's awesome.

**trap49** · 07-16-2012, 08:56 PM

Wow, I followed eli-ao5's instructions and got the OTA on the first try! Thanks, Dude!

**Becca4ever** · 07-16-2012, 09:10 PM

Got it. WIFI download 5 min. Install 15 min. Much faster and smoother. Love the Currents app.

OMG that totally worked, I was going to root, but now I am downloading this as I type, this, ty, ty, ty, ty, ty, ty

**nijella** · 07-17-2012, 05:07 PM

At last! Tapping the 'check update' button finally paid off(?)

**yuanliao_2003** · 07-18-2012, 07:56 AM

Is there anybody here whose GN is yakju** get the 4.1 JB OTA?

**keithz** · 07-18-2012, 09:29 AM

Still nothing. This just adds to the CF that was the Nexus 7 launch.

And just like the Nexus 7 being an extra week late in Canada, I don't think we'll see the Jellybean OTA here for another month. Google has not even gotten around to updating Galaxy Nexus' beyond 4.0.1 thanks to the yakjuuxw build in Canada.

I thought I bought a Nexus. Turns out, I bought a Nexus branded phone with Samsung support.

Times like these make me fantasize about the iPhone. I shouldn't have to root, flash a different ROM to get a basic update.

That your own fault for not doing your homework. It's a well known fact only the U.S. GSM phones are takju (and updated by Google). Canadian versions have never been simply yakju. Every Canadian gets their updates from Samsung stock. It's not Google who "hasn't gotten around to updating," it's Samsung.

You should root and flash. It's not hard and you'll be happy you did.

And 4.1 is a major jump in the software. Not exactly a "basic update."

Don't hate Google, hate Samsung. Or yourself for not flashing the yakju build.

Got it the day after it was released (yakju).

I cant find any app by that name. There is app by name Google Service Framework, but it's clear cache button is not active, but clear data button is. Can you please share exact name of the app.

Google Servie Framework is correct.

Force stop and clear cache. If you can't and the data info has all 0's, then try a software update check.

If it doesn't work, rinse and repeat.

No need to root it, I just unlocked the boot loader using wugsfresh v1.4 and then flashed ICS 4.0.4 (its very easy to use, and there's a lot of tutorials on YouTube) which is the yakju firmware. Once you have that you will immediately get the legit OTA 4.1.1 update.

Is it me or did the stock keyboard in JB get worse?

For whatever reason, I'm noticing missed autocorrections. That is, autocorrections that would typically happen now sometimes don't. For example, today I saw the word "begter" which usually autcorrects to "begger" but it missed it for some reason. I've seen this happen a few times with other words ("wqnt" not correcting to "want" is another example). Why is it now missing auto corrections? This never happened in ICS.

Also, after double spacing to get a period, I can't backspace by holding down. I have to double tap backspace to get it going. I can't tell if this is some sort of "safety" feature or a glitch with the backspace. In general, backspacing is a lot slower and less smooth than it was in ICS.

I don't know what it is, but something about the JB keyboard seems like a minor step backwards. It's overall a bit less responsive and slower. My settings are Very Aggressive Corrections and Predictive Text OFF.

Not sure what happened..

And is it me, or did they sort of miss the point of shortcuts? I wish shortcuts would just automatically change to the desired phrase instead of merely adding it to the suggestion bar, which makes it an additional step to make the change. :T

Look! I'm not the only one:

Thoughts, you folks?

Yes, but who cares?

You can always flash back to stock, unroot and lock the bootloader back up if you have any problems. The supplier will never know you did anything to it.

I'm done with the waiting. Ready to flash to yakju 4.04 & then try the trick. According to the instruction, it looks like it is not a hard job. Wishes me good luck.

Yep, that's the way to go.

You'll be fine. And very happy when you're finished.
