You have to play around a bit to get the driver loaded. It did the same to me at first.

Mine never did. I downloaded the OTA file from Android Police and used adb sideload to install it.

That's ok since it's only the 2012 model which I only use as a clock and music player. Whenever it comes out its ok by me. The 5.01 works well enough on the 2013 n7 that I actually use so that there's no rush for that one either.

Just checked that, but the file name indicates that it's a factory image, which is not something I would use since those require a complete wipe of the device to install. Oh well. Maybe a proper one that can be installed via adb sideload will show up.

You can sideload it if you don't see it when checking for system updates. That's what I did on my n7. The files for most nexus models are online if you check Android Police website.

I got 5.01 on my 2013 nexus 7 but the 2012 model only seems to have 5.0 available for it. Since I don't use that one much I don't suppose it's a big deal but still odd. Anyone know of a download link for the 5.01 for n7 2012 if there is such a thing?

I had that happen too (2013 nexus7) but check for update didn't help. I ended up having to sideload it. That worked well enough even though less convenient than regular OTA since I had to get the driver on the computer working, which wasn't easy.

So far so good. The important apps for me that need to work still do in lollipop, so I think it went well.

I went ahead and side loaded the update. Now just those colored dots swirling around for the past 5 minutes. How long should that take or is much tablet bricked now? Never mind. Now says Android is updating..optimizing apps. So I guess it's ok. All done now and all is well, and the apps that I...

I have a 2013 nexus 7. The other day I saw in my notifications area that there was a lollipop upgrade downloaded and ready to install. I didn't want to do it right away so I left it alone. Today I decided I was ready to go ahead but the notification was gone and I have no idea where it went. In...

For me to update to Lollipop, Splashtop Remote Desktop, Dish Anywhere, and Amazon Music absolutely must work. Otherwise it's a no go. I think someone mentioned that Amazon Music may already have been updated to be compatible, but not the other two, as far as I know. Dish Anywhere hasn't been...

That sounds a lot like what iCloud has been doing for Apple users for years now. It's about time Android got that capability. I'd love to update to lollipop but I still have to wait for my favorite apps to catch up with it first.

Really? On mine it has not shown up. Odd that it would be so long, though I really don't want it yet. Maybe cause yours is 2012, not 2013. I have a 2012 but only use it as a bedside alarm clock and don't really keep it up to date. Never bothered to check the update on that one cause it's barely...

Has anyone in here actually gotten the lollipop update on the N7 via the system update utility? Or were those updates done by side loading?

I'm in no rush to install Lollipop on my Nexus 7 (2013) given the number of apps that don't work with it, which include some of my favorites. On the other hand it's rather curious that the OTA update hasn't even been offered on in the Settings page where you check for updates. I have the files...
