Anyone get ICS via OTA?

[Citizendino]

Anybody?

I don't think there is a OTA for the I9020A phones yet and who knows if there ever will.

 

[Citizendino]

That is my fear.

you can get it here: http://android.clients.google.com/packages/ota/google_crespoa/IEzMw3FU.zip

doesn't involve rooting or anything, you just have to be on stock 2.3.6. Read more here: I9020A got OTA! (and how to got it now) - xda-developers

they put up the factory images for the ics build for our phones
i just flashed my device its going fine everything is running smooth so far
Factory Images for Nexus Devices - Google Support for Nexus Phones and Flagship Devices - Google Code

 

[Citizendino]

Can you send me an easy, Mac OS X, link for flashing? I do not know how to start.

If anybody felt an earthquake on the 2nd it was me hitting the floor when I saw the available update for my I9020A.

I loaded the zip file above and so far day 2 and no problems. I am so far impressed but still unimpressed on difficulty getting updates.

has anyone else tried this to see if it is BS or true link. sorry if i sound skeptical but i'm a real noob with anything other than blackberries. i switched to nexus s and love it so far. but i also don't want a brick. any replies would be great.

the link is real, I updated my phone a couple of weeks ago via this method and it was fast simple and easy. this is what I did:

click the link and download the file
move the file from your pc (eithr mac or windows) to your phone via usb connection
turn off your phone
now, hold the power button and volume up at the same time to open fastboot mode, you will get a menu with the adroid logo.
move with the volume rocker and select with the power button, select recovery
you will get a android and a warning sign
now press the volume up and power ntil you get a menu
apply recovery or update from sd card
choose the file you moved from your pc

enjoy



check that your battery has enough charge (75 percent at the least)
move the file to a locatio thats easy to access and remember



I did this without any knowledge on android, its very easy.

fwiw, i've tried the method mentioned above, and i tried the method paul the mod posted. neither one works for me... not sure my error, as i've read the instructions... que sera...

 

[Citizendino]

Yeah, see, I hate being the negative guy. I like my Nexus S a lot to be sure. But, this is like the holy trinity of crap that annoys me. Seriously we are absolutely without any viable means of customer support. I pay hundreds of dollars a month for a carrier plan, and no one can help with my device.

and rooting is lame. Should I have to root my car to get all of the horsepower, or my hotwater heater to get a good shower. No, a thing should do what it can do.

I received my update 2 days ago ota be patient....I work for sprint n the nexus demo we have also got the update...be patient I've seen customers with it already

 

[Citizendino]

I was sitting at lunch today with a friend with a Nexus S on Sprint. His OTA started during lunch. This is horrible.

I got my ota for 4.0.4 a week ago i9020a I dunno what you guys are talking bout

 

[Citizendino]

You got your OTA from ATT a week ago?

 

[Barracuda7772]

Oh no I have the i9020a on telus in canada

 

[Incrediboy]

Anyone get the Att update ota yet?

ATT tech support said they are not going to do an OTA. The phone is an unsupported device, since ATT did not sell it. Best Buy did.
