I tried the "set the time forward" trick, didn't work. Can someone point me in the right direction in terms of bypassing this limitation? Trying to get the jelly bean update tonight

The above option requires me to root, correct? I'd rather avoid that if possible.

my 24 hour window has passed and now instead of telling me I have to wait x number of hours, the button simply presses and then does nothing! What the !? Anyone have a fix or a suggestion?

My phone does the same with checking and then nothing. I'm not sure but, I was told the carrier can force it? I've yet to do it, bc after seeing all the WiFi issues, I'm not even sure I want to yet. Does anyone here know more? I also don't want to root.

I've read that the Wi-Fi issues can easily be fixed by forgetting the Wi-Fi network your connected to and re-adding it. Have you read people still having problems after doing this?

Yes, I read that as well, and also that some still couldn't get it back. Not all, just a mix of course. Hopefully it is just certain ones. I know most updates will have issues, but, hoping for a smooth one if I do get it. Thanks for responding.

You don't need to root to upgrade with that download link, this is how I did it with the last update before rooting

Just change the date 24 hours ahead in the time and date settings.

He said he tried that and it didn't work.

I had to keep bumping mine up and trying it every "day." By time I got to the 14th, the phone finally found it. Not sure if that's the magic date, or if I just needed to keep trying it.

I was up to about 8 days forward when all the sudden my phone stopped doing the wait time for some reason and it worked.
