Re: Anyway to force 4.2.2 update?

I would like to get it back, I got it when I was leaving work and figured I'd update when I got home. Got home and let it run, phone rebooted but I realized I had a mod installed that removes the google search bar and last time I had to remove that and then install so I stopped it - it reported a signature error anyway. Now the phone says there is no update and last time I remember I had to go delete a file or something (or wait several days) before it would report that my phone was ready. For the life of me I can't remember how I got it triggered again last time.

Re: Anyway to force 4.2.2 update?

In case anyone else is having trouble finding that, it's actually "Google Services Framework".

You're correct. I was giving the instructions off of my head.. Anyways, the force update seemed to work...

I tried a few different ways... Nothing worked until I gave it one last shot.. Maybe by coincidence, who knows? But I'm on 4.2.2!


Here's what I did:

Clear data > force stop > click home button > task manager > swipe close all apps > settings > about phone > Check for update > MONEY!!

No worries. I just mentioned it in case someone had trouble finding it.

Glad you got the update. Still nothing for me. No biggy. Another day or two isn't going to make much difference to me. :) I'm hoping it'll have better reception/signal. Does it appear to be?

Looks like you're the lucky one to receive the OTA. Is anyone lucky enough to receive it yet?

Just kinda showed up on it's own when I got home from work last night.
Must be because I was in no hurry to have it on my GN.

I've tried at least 30 times so far, and I still haven't had any luck yet. I'm almost tempted to dl it straight from Google, but I can't recall how to boot the phone from recovery.

Worked like a charm. Well, on the second try that is. Good stuff. Installing now :)
Yes!

Settings > Apps > All > Google Services Framework > Clear Data > Force Stop > Settings > About phone > System updates > Check now


This method works perfectly! Thank You all very much ///

Does this only work while connection to a wifi network?

EDIT: Got it!

Re: Anyway to force 4.2.2 update?

I'm rooted and unlocked on stock 4.1.1.

Got the 4.2.2 update and after installing, ClockworkMod asked if I wanted if I wanted to install untrusted package. I selected yes then got an error after it attempted to install. Anyone else seen this issue or have any advice?

I think you need to relock to get the update but I might be wrong.
