I know people don't believe it, but I did the framework trick and it worked.

I tried just pressing check for updates twice. Nothing.

I cleared the framework once, nothing.

Did it again and the Android 4.1 System Update popped up. :laugh:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] agent8080:
4.1 downloading now, finally!

Cleared framework cache, checked for update, nothing. Force stopped framework, cleared framework cache, checked for update, bingo! Both actions a few minutes apart so there may be something in this trick.

Stock everything, jakju, O2 UK.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] LuPoM:
I didn't do the framework trick and just got the OTA a couple of hours ago, got back home now, downloaded and installed. Working like a charm!

I live in Rome, Italy

Galaxy Nexus yakju latest 4.0.4 from Google

Carrier: TIM

In my house there are 2 more GNex (father's and little brother's) and mine is the only one that got the OTA so far.

Just wait guys ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Depike:
I just got the OTA message!

I live in The Netherlands.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] StevenZoz:
just when I was about to give up doing the framework clears... I got it!... followed some others advice and did force stop. I did force stop + clear data 3 or 4 times then checked for update and got it! Before that I also tried just clearing the data and checking in by dialing that # sequence (about 6 times) and then tried just clearing the data (about 15 times), all since yesterday.

I am in North New Jersey on T-Mobile with yakju. I have the white galaxy nexus and it came with one of the other yakju's but flashed it to normal yakju right after I got it (around the 4.0.2 update)

PS... I miss the old start up screen!

Don't know about the Starbucks where you are, but here it disconnects you if you don't have the tab open in your browser where you agreed to the terms/clicked connect... It might be that?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Charlie Wax:
Ahahahahahaaaa...damn bro...i've just done the same thing and here it comes...Jelly Bean :))))))))))

I am in Croatia also. Unlocked bootloader and i was on stock 4.0.4
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rabidrotty:
help

Got the ota dloaded it verified it then phone booted into cwm and it rebooted still on 4.0.4 and can't get the ota anyone experience this?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] paspro:
Does anyone have the 4.1.1 GSM stock rom as a complete package and not an OTA upgrade?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sblantipodi:
Sa me avere. The download locked up.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] fxrider:
Hello, my nexus has 4.0.4 but the build number is IMM76K which is for CDMA. But I have GSM phone and in Sweden. So does anyone with GSM got IMM76K? And were able to to get 4.1 update?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] craigphume:
I just got mine Yakju, Queensland Australia after clearing the framework trick :D:D:D:D:D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] got_milk:
You need to be using a stock recovery, not ClockworkMod.

---------- Post added at 05:05 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:04 PM ----------

IMM76K isn't just for CDMA...it was the original 4.0.4 build for GSM models as well, until IMM76I which was the data drop fix. You should have been OTA'd to IMM76I which would take you to Jelly Bean, unless you're using a non-yakju or takju build, in which case nobody knows when those builds will get Jelly Bean.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AntonyStark:
I got it earlier after the framework trick. From my observation I was added to the list at 8pm, but had checked at 7.58, if I hadn't done the trick I just wouldn't have got it until whatever time checks actually happen for real after already checking.

Galaxy Upgrade - Photos

Usual technique: Clear Framework Data & Check Update

Must be on Wifi

Galaxy Nexus UK Stock (network is o2)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] parsapar:
Got mine a couple hours ago. Did not do the clear framework trick. Just checked and it started downloading. In Texas if that matters. Completely stock version purchased from google play store about 2 months ago.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] RoadHazard:
Got the update (on a yakjuxw phone flashed to yakju)! I used the Framework trick, which worked on the second try (after two days of checking for the update normally), so I'm pretty convinced it has an effect on your chances. One difference between my two tries was that on the first I only cleared the data, while on the second I also stopped the process. Not sure it that actually makes a difference, but that time I got the update immediately when checking.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] daern:
Look in GNex dev forum...few on there derived from 4.1.1 OTA. Using one now...no issues at all (and easier than buggering with OTA for my mind!)

Off-ish-hull version not released yet. Bet good money we'll see before weekend on Android Building :-)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tim_2812:
Just got it

3 UK. After trying the framework trick off/on last couple of days this time it actually worked at the 2nd time of asking. Downloading now!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] efrant:
This is not true: IMM76K was NOT the original build for GSM models. It is a later build for GSM devices, and it was for most non-yakju/non-takju builds. Yakju/takju IMM76I never got updated to IMM76K. (It was also a build for Verizon devices.)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ac1964:
Thanks very much for your help, it worked for me.

I've been clearing the data from the Google Framework Services for the past 36 hours, I don't know how many times I tried it.

I decided to check this post to see if someone had uncovered another method and found your trick to use the force close and it worked fine.

Many, many thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] fxrider:
Thanks for your reply. I got a yakjuxw build. Is it necessary to flash it to yakju for the OTA to work?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rabidrotty:
Thanx got milk will flashing stock recovery wipe my SD stuff pics n bids n music?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ohTwadi:
Maybe...I'm leaving work in about 40 mins so I will just go home and try. Hopefully the Download Failed disappears once I connect to my home wifi.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] johninsf:
JB just landed on my phone.

Location: San Francisco (SOMA)

GSM Tajku (Google Play)

4.0.4 to 4.1.1

I am convinced that the Framework Services data clearing approach is totally random. I have tried 20 different times in every combination mentioned since yesterday and it never worked. I had a minute at work, checked for the update and there it was.

Just finished installing and it is nice....now back to work and will play later. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kikumbob:
Interesting. After following this thread all day, noting how some people swore by the framework trick and others got it normally, and feeling myself that this is just a myth spread by observational bias, I finally got the update. And guess what? I got it through the framework trick.

I checked at 7.56 PM GMT normally: nothing. I then checked at 8.10PM to see if they had added me to the update schedule on the hour: still nothing. Just now I checked normally again after reading your post. I did this normally at first and then cleared the framework data (didn't force close) and I recieved the update. I am literally none the wiser about any kind of pattern concerning update schedule buckets, OTAs, and framework clearing. All I know is I have the update.

So my advice is: just do what you want. You'll get the damn thing eventually :p
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] philipswich:
It Works

Been checking for the last couple of days, then did the framework force stop and clear cache thing twice - now downloading!

UK by the way
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] UCFJake:
Clearing the Services Framework just worked to force the update for me. Takju from Play Store. Unrooted and stock. JB is amazing.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] neilalexander:
Exactly what I did just now, and it worked, even when checking manually without resetting the framework showed no updates. However, over the last two days I've tried this several times with no luck. Obviously when your time is here, it's here!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Doug B:
X2. Worked perfectly. Took about 10 minutes from start to finish.

Swyped from my Jelly Bean infected Galaxy Nexus via Tapatalk 2.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jrl022:
I literally just did the exact same thing with the exact same end result. Checked at 3:40ish CST and nothing. Check at 4:26 CST without clearing data and nothing. Clear data (no force stop) and check one minute later and there it is. :shrug:

BTW, I'm yakju 4.0.4 on AT&T in TX. Bone stock. No root, locked bootloader, stock recovery.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jmsf:
Just wanted to say that the stop & clear cache framework trick really worked for me too. I´ve been spamming the check update button for 2 days and at the third try after using the trick it finally got the update! :) Waiting for the install now...

Edit: Yakju 4.0.4 IMM76I and from Portugal btw :)

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] linkinnn:
I want to confirm that clearing the data of google services framework works, after waiting for 2 days, I just did the trick, works on the first attempt,
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Porsenna:
Problem with OTA, 4.1 download, but at installing was red exclamation mark and just faild. I did flash from yakjuxw to yakju using Wugs_GnexRootToolkit.v1.4 but i didnt flash baseband. Its thats why OTA failed? Recovery was stock from google.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bigwillis:
Same for me first attempt on device framework....yakju....Kansas City....
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mrkazador:
I guess clearing framework does work... I cleared it about 5 times then it finally came up!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] minervaman:
Just got update 22.50 Ireland stock 4.04.. Dunno if it was framework or just my time ... After checking all day battery now at 11% and can't get it charged quickly enough.. Arrgggggggg
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nak#57:
same here I was waiting patiently or I should say impatiently and decided to try this framework clearing trick and yup there it is JB waiting to be downloaded
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kylew1212:
+1 Clearing the Framework data does work, and force closing. I had to do this 4-5 times in different combinations, but now JellyBean is installing. :laugh:

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] p.a.d.g.:
Like fxrider, I am also yet to receive the 4.1 OTA and my build is IMM76K. I am on T-Mobile in Pittsburgh.

If my goal is to expedite the arrival of the OTA, should I flash to a yakju or takju build?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ebdiesel08:
I just got the update by clearing data on the google framework services!

I tried this before and got nothing but then cleared the data 1-2 times and I got it.:D

I'm in new York city, yakju version, 6:40
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] efrant:
Doesn't matter too much, but I would go with takju.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rabidrotty:
will doing a facotory restore take me back to factory recovery?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jrl022:
You cats ready for a wrench in this whole "does the clearing Google Services data actually do anything" debate (if you can call it that)?

The above is still true. I got the notification after clearing the data that JB was available to be installed. The hangup is that I was still in the office I was working out of where the wifi is all janky. I was impatient and tried the download anyway. The network had sign in problems (as usual) and the JB update page then said "download failed" at the top where it normally says "downloading". "No big deal" I think to myself. I'll just wait until I get back to the hotel and use their wifi.

Arrived at said hotel, connect to wifi, attempt to reinitialize download. Except when I pressed the "retry download" button at the bottom of the page nothing happened. No indication that it was, in fact, attempting to download the OTA. Button would turn blue when I touched it but that's it.

Ok, power cycle time. Restarted the phone and same thing. "Download failed" and pressing "Retry Download" does nothing. Crap.

Maybe if I clear the Services Framework data again it will reset itself and re-notify me and we can start from scratch here. Makes sense, no? So I do that, go to the System Updates page where I'm greeted with the "last checked sometime in 1969" text, hit "Check Now" aaaannnndddd........

.......My system is currently up to date. Last checked at 5:32 PM. Wtf?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] fxrider:
Flashed from yakjuxw to yakju. Did the framework stop+clear+update check 4-5 times. Now JB is downloading :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Burata:
Google Play Store Nexus here, bought it last week. Shipped at 11:02pm EST July 3rd, ban went into effect 12:01am July 4th. Anywho... Takju 4.0.4 100% stock haven't done anything to it..... yet

Ended up having to not only force stop and clear data i had to disable framework, stop it again (it had instantly restarted), clear data again, then finally re-enable it. 4.1 is downloading now.

T-Mobile, Ohio... even though it doesn't matter yada yada
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ray3andrei:
And how did you update without cwm

Sent from my Jelly Beaned GNexus
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] angelossssss:
Can someone upload the stock recovery in order to push it in the phone please ? :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MysticDeth:
Im on the same build...How do i turn off signature verification? In cwm?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] IINexusII:
flash cwm back on again. i think i only installed the firmware again to get rid of the root
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MysticDeth:
Im on the same build and I didnt get the notification...How do I turn off signature verification? In cwm?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] qwerp_:
i have the the same issue as well, pointing to /system/app/Maps.apk.

which i replaced because of the latitude friend list missing,

i have to find back the original Maps.apk, put it back and presto, it allows me to install without error.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] efrant:
I would man, but I'm not in front of a PC at the moment, and I don't have enough free space on my phone to do a nandroid. If no one gets it to you, I will a little later on.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] :
Yeah,there's an option in CWM, should be right after you select install update.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] :
how????

How to check what is my rom, custom or stock?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bilalakhtar:
Anyone on yakju 4.0.4 IMM76I still around? ...... hello?

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] joedeveloper:
Any takju 4.0.4 IMM76I people out there? Curious where the OTA is on that. Appears one person has gotten it but no link to the ZIP as of yet.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] larioteo:
YEPEE I GOT IT!

I have pressed this week about every day so around 100 times this f... Check Now button, but nothing happened.

I also tried the Google Service Framework trick but the cache data was always ZERO and so i deleted the App Data, and never restarted the phone.

Yet i pressed also 100 times the Check Now button again but it doesn't helped.

After that i deleted the Google Serice Framework Data and pressed Force Stop, than i restarted my phone, pressed once the Check Now Button and voila the Update has startet to download.

I was the whole time over WiFi Online.

The Google Framework Trick definitely worked for me after the first time (when i restarted the phone after) and stopped the framework before the restart.

So happy, the phone is updating now :)

Info:

Yakju with 4.0.4 from Austria :P

Here the prove:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jonathan3579:
I'm so glad I came back to the Nexus family!!! :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martindesu:
My Yakju 4.0.4 just got OTA. here we go :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] andrewsoong:
Just got it spamming the services framework thing. Either a massive coincidence or that trick does work.

Hopefully this has voice commands for UK? Still downloading.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mkang513:
Guys. The trick is to clear the framework then go press check now before it gets a chance to come back. Just did it and it worked.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] wheelerruss:
Factory wipe worked - UK

Hate to say it but I just tried the factory wipe about 4 times in a row, once rebooting the phone and a couple of times force stopping too, and it worked on about the 4th attempt.

I only say 'I hate to' as it doesn't make any sense why this would work. Unless by wiping data and trying again it sends a different type of request?

Either way I have jb now and am happy. I am in UK (London) and was/am on yakju.

Anyone know if Google Now works in UK?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Grey Ghost:
Yeah so after not believing the framework clear voodoo I tried it and it worked, I had tried regular hourly checks myself to no avail. Did a clear, let it sit while i ate supper. did a check, and poof jellybean.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rayiskon:
All u guys reporting that the clearing services framework works be aware, u might upset some badass developer here, then we'll have to hear his opinion about this subject again...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rabidrotty:
Im hooped

Crap, Im to stupid to flash the factory recovery , and even if I wasnt stupid I cant backup my pics vids and music due to stupid computer issues. I tried the CWM way of putting jellybean on and I get a stupid status 7 error, and I can't download anything on my stupid computer because its hooped, so I guess Im stuck with ICS.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] larioteo:
When you delete the Framework than in the Last Update Check Text appears 1.1.1970 so i really think that it belongs to the Framework, i am an developer, not so familiar with android but it is logical if you delete data and than in the part like last update, the first possible date on the phone stands, i can say yes it is doying something, the question is what.

For me a force stop and restart helped.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] andrewsoong:
Just tried it, it does. And it didn't with the manual update I flashed the other day.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] negrobembon:
Full stock, i just booted into recovery to make sure it was stock too
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] PutzDF:
i really tried a lot of times this framework trick and i didn`t get the OTA, i bought at USA but i live at Brazil, Here is a image with information of my cellphone, i never rooted and never flash, why i didn`t get the OTA?

thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] snowglyder:
On takju, Play Store GNex. That Framework trick is BS.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] zanttu:
Thanks, finally got it working.

First tried to flash manually -> verification failed as it failed with OTA.

Flashed all images (4.0.4 yakju) manually with cmd

Tried to get OTA -> worked :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rabidrotty:
can't seem to find an answer anywhere on flashing stock recovery, does it wipe the sd part of your phone such as pictures and movies and docs etc...?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rees397:
Ok need some urgent help! My Google services framework app has disappeared and there is no option to check now and I can't sign into any of my Google apps!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] snowglyder:
Weird.. if I do a Clear Data on the Framework the Last Checked Update is 12/31/1969. Takju. Play store GNex.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ebdiesel08:
Man, Jelly Bean is awesome! Can't wait for you guys to get it (hopefully soon).

It was a 147 mb download and it has a new boot up screen, not the one that ive seen for 4.1.0
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rodscom:
I'm from Brazil and I just got the OTA. I have a takaju phone bought in Google Play. My phone is in Portuguese and I tried to update from update button but the update didn't come. I changed the language to English, cleared framework, connected the charge and tried to update again.

It worked for me!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jblack41510:
YAKJU users when you got the OTA update does your phone stay YAKJU or changes to TAKJU?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] got_milk:
It stays yakju...why would it change?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] andrewsoong:
If you disabled it then it's at the bottom of that list.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] stefan_lewinger:
Ha! That worked for me! And I had been check all week, but this trick really did it. Thanks bro
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jblack41510:
Was just curious
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rees397:
Ok, update popped up, but won't let me download as I am not in wifi arrrrrgggggg
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Aky69:
Currently updating my Nexus to JB

(Yakju unlocked - AT&T in Ithaca, NY)

I tried earlier (6 hours ago) a countless time the clear framework data trick, it didn't work

And it ****ed up some data for some apps (like Androidlost), so I decided not to try again and set up the apps like they were.

During the past few hours, I was just doing the "regular" check, but nothing, even after reboot.

Then I decided 10 minutes ago to do the clear framework data one last time:

-when I did it and checked the update: nothing

-when I did it right after that but rebooted: Update to JB :-)

So yeah it worked for me.

But like someone said: I think that google releases the update for some series of phones over the time. Doing the "trick" maybe allows to start the update, but we have to be on the list of the "allowed phones" to update.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] eas014:
Got mine as well :D, im guessing google is finally really pushing it to a lot of devices! much much smoother! sucks that some of the wallpapers from ics are gone.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martindesu:
I got it without the "trick".
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] samagon:
Downloading now, yakju 4.0.4

Over past 2 days have been doing just check now, clear framework cache check now, clear framework, force stop check now, and even *#*#checkin#*#* in dialer.

If it makes any difference I was watching Google io on the YouTube on my tf101 while eating some jelly beans I bought at the convenience store when I got the notification.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] donniestarko:
Stock takju unrooted locked bootloader IO developer model on 4.1, still no update to 4.1.1. Anyone else not getting ota with same phone?

Just finished installing the Jelly Bean 4.1.1 OTA via CWM.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Kapetan:
It seems like cwm is making troubles to my OTA update success....Installing stock yakju 4.0.4 and will try my luck :(
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] andrewsoong:
Latitude now works again for me. Think I'll stick to OTA instead of manually flashing from now on.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] negrobembon:
Crap, my connection sucks too, i hope i dont get this issue

But you got me curious, if the download fails, can i just try again when i get a better connection?

Does anyone know this?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rogerchew:
just got it, yakju in burbank, ca - cleared data once cause i felt like it
