Received Official Android 4.1 Jelly Bean OTA this morning

[Cigar-Junkie]

Last update I did "the trick" and it worked on the first try. This was days after trying the check now button. This time it didn't work until I tried it about ten times and on the second day. I have no idea how man times I hit the check now button. Here's where I gets really crazy, after the trick "worked" I quit checking. It could be a coincidence but I just don't know.

One thing I really admire about apple is how they handle their updates. This rolling out in waves business is annoying!

Took a friend of mine 7 hours to update his Iphone 4S to IO6........nothing to envy about that.
Took me 20 minutes to update to 4.1.1

Exact same thing happened to me. Glad to finally have it. Now I can finally stop obsessing over it.

Updated this am in NYC.

I have a newbie question. Was considering Cyanogenmod and now that we have Jelly Bean, does that mean installing the latest stable version 9 would be a downgrade?

Also, my phone is not rooted. If I root it can it be uprooted? Is it the same as locked and unlocked?

Thanks.

Do not touch anything except for what this says in the order it says. I made sure before doing this, all my recent apps were swiped clear.

1. Wifi- ON...
2. settings->data usage>-mobile data OFF.
3. settings->More (under wireless & networks)->Mobile Networks->UNcheck Data Enabled.......
4.settings->Apps->All->Google Services Framework->Force Stop->Clear Data.......
5.ONLY click HOME Button (not the back button!).....
6.Multitask (recent apps) Button (just to the right of the Home button)......
7.swipe away the settings window that is there.......
8.Settings->About Phone->System Updates.???

? I did it easily 100 times last night to no avail. I gave up! Then this morning I tried again, nothing! Kept saying I was up to date! So I rechecked everything and realized I forgot to click Mobile data OFF in step 2 lol...once I did that, it started right away!? I have never rooted, this was stock from the store. OH, and I was plugged in charging as well. Not sure if that has any bearing though.

I heard rumor that sometime today VZW put a patch in place to block this being done, but I don't know anything else about that. It wouldn't make sense to me since they're updating ota.

Anyway, I hope this helps yas! Let me know!

This worked for me just now after trying since the 21st. Must have been the home button vs back, and swiping away the old settings.

BTW, it said non-wifi pushed back to Oct 3rd.

To install cyanogenmod you have to be rooted. To root you need to unlock the bootloader. Those are two different things. CM9 is ice cream sandwich and I personally wouldn't go back to that after having jelly bean.

Holy just tried this it worked first time doing it today lol...

Okay, so let me just say I've been trying this since the announcement and it's been no dice for me. That is until, I added a couple of steps to this "trick". I noticed that if you force stopped framework and went back into it there'd already be like 20kb of data. So I took it a couple of steps further.

I went further than just "Turning off mobile data" - I dialed *#*#4636#*#* and killed my radio. 2nd, I turned off Wifi. Now, with a 0% chance of information exchange, force closed framework, cleared data, HOME screen button, swiped closed settings, back into settings, turned WiFi BACK ON, before it even grabbed my network, I was already in About Phone -> Status, clicking "CHECK NOW", as soon as the Wifi indicator turned blue, Check now was SUCCESSFUL!!!!!

I'm 15 miles north of Boston and was super skeptical after trying the trick all day yesterday/thursday.

GOOD LUCK!!!!


PS. Jellybean is the hotness.

Got my update at 12 am
I did the framework trick about 30 times and it didn't work
When I shut off data that is when I got the update
YAY

 

[Niner17]

This just worked for me. Downloading now. Thanks!

 

[joe_sun]

None of the tricks have worked for me, oh well I'll be patient.. I guess

I can confirm that doing the clearing of the "google framework service" does work... but its hit or miss.

Steps I took with my wife's phone:

1.) Made sure wifi was on and mobile was off
2.) Cleared the Google framework
3.) Ran update check - NOTHING
4.) Turned mobile on along with wifi
5.) Cleared google framework again
6.) checked for update - WORKED

BUT! I did this with my phone, didnt work,... what i did for my phone was

1.) Made sure both mobile and wifi was on
2.) cleared google framework
3.) Checked for update - NONE
4.) turned on airplane mode (turning both mobile and wifi off)
5.) cleared google framework
6.) Turned both wifi/mobile on
7.) checked for update - WORKED

So yes, clearing the google framework does work but it looks like it might have something else cached blocking it from time to time.
