Tried all that didn't work. Its purely coincidental. There is no scientific reason why this would work only on the 20th time you try it. The reality is, if I try anything long enough right now, at some point my phone will get the OTA. That doesn't mean it had anything to do with what I tried. Sorry guys, unfortunately, there is no trick here. We just have to wait.

If I have my bootloader unlocked but I'm not rooted does this affect me being able to get the update?
Tried that and it didn't work
is there any other way short of removing my Google account and re-adding it? I guess that isn't too big of a deal, I just don't wanna go through it.

Did you see my blue boxed post? Do you have a custom recovery? Custom software? If not, then you're fine.

Thanks! Further affirms my belief that this official update = exactly the same as the leaked update.
Hey everyone?! I have a unlocked Gnex on VZW running 4.0.4. Can I still upgrade?
I read that if you have a custom ROM you can't. How do I know if I have a custom ROM, recoveries an all that?
My USB doesn't work (I charge with an external battery charger) . Can anyone help me accomplish getting JB on my device? Thanks!

See the OTA thread in this forum?
This one.
Go there, read that.
Have you ever flashed a rom? You can't accidentally do that. So if you don't remember, you're probably good to go
.However, if you don't have a working USB port, I wouldn't even bother. That's a huge risk. Just wait for it to come.

Hold it right there, what about people on IMM76K? I have an old gnex so that's the official version. Never been prompted to update to Q. What does this mean for me and the thousands of other gnex's like mine?

Thanks. I'm going to check out once I get home. I'm driving at the moment. I traded my BB for it

Q was sent with recently shipped/replacement gnex's. It reduced the search functionality to make good on the patent case Samsung lost with Apple, so that new or replacement devices could be sold here. Already sold gnex's did not need to have it pushed because the blockade it put on devices being imported doesn't matter for those already sold. So basically, you don't need Q. All Nexii will receive the JB OTA regardless of whether you're on K or Q.
I'm pretty sure it had to do with gimping the local search. I think people with refurbs or who purchased after a certain date have Q while people who bought before the legal mess got to keep local search with version K. But now it seems we're screwed
Edit: beat me by a minute!
good to here we'll still get it I'm also on IMM76K.
IMM76Q was an update for the version of gnex with slightly different hardware components I think.
So if you're on MM76K, you will never be updated to Q. I may be wrong on that but I'm pretty sure.
I am waiting (im)patiently for this to hit my phone...............waiting.........waiting........
