Not receiving OTA update Nexus 7

[jharvey87]

Is it normal that I have not received my update for 4.1.2 on my Nexus 7. I know it has been posted for download, but I have been reading that everyone else has received the update, yet my tablet is still telling me I'm up-to-date. Is this normal or should I have received it already?

I have read just the opposite, that hardly nobody has recieved the OTA update. Just download it and flash in recovery.

 

[jharvey87]

Oh interesting. If I don't get it by Friday I'll probably do that.

It's rolling out SLOWLY. I have not gotten it yet.

It's suppose to be rolling out slowly. Many people don't know what slow means.

This is slower by far than verizon phone update rollouts!

Unless you're having a serious problem that this update is supposed to fix, then why get upset about a few days of rollout delay? Something like not being able to connect to WPA2 Enterprise could be something to get anxious about, but things like home screen rotation is, to my mind, just not that urgent.

Who's upset? Its just weird that NO ONE has received it. At least not that I've noticed from the comments here. Stop putting words in others mouths

Is there any way to block the OTA update? Other than not connecting to the internet.

It will not update with out your permission. It will notify you that an update is available and ask if you would like to download and install it.

My update just came within the last hour. Give it another check.

Hi Joe,

I have a 16GB that is being crippled by the slowdown-bug so, yes, for me this IS a huge update that will fix a serious problem with my unit functioning properly, which is why I'm frustrated that days later, still, nothing.

I'm really hoping it will come soon. *fingers crossed*

I have not received an update on mine yet

Just got it about 10 minutes ago here... Had been checking every couple hours to no avail and then came back from a client call and a system update message was sitting on the screen.

Me, too. Just installing now.

For those looking for this update to clear the lag, remember that you need to fill your empty storage and then delete to get it to go away fully. You can do that manually, or use Forever Gone. It's designed for secure erase, but since it fills your storage with junk and then deletes, it achieves the same thing.

Still not here for me.

Seems to be running fine on my N7 right now, although it's not finished the process. Whether it actually speeds things up, I won't be able to say: I was still mostly lag free after a factory reset a couple of weeks ago, but I figured I might as well make sure things are working as they should.
