Any way to force the update to be available over OTA? I just installed the 4.1.1 factory image from Google, and wasn't prompted yet for 4.1.2
[Nexus 7 General] dalew729:
Oh yea. You would be viewing the picture on your current monitor, not the Nexus 7 - How dumb of me.

I can tell you it looks the same on my computer monitor as it does on the Nexus 7.
[Nexus 7 General] rockvoid:
it seems only US users got the update yet...
[Nexus 7 General] rockvoid:
Even if i would view it on Nexus it would not look the same..because i don´t have installed 4.1.2 yet :)

The question is - how good is your monitor? :D
[Nexus 7 General] styckx:
Not really. I am and I know others have Dalvik Debug Monitor open just waiting for the update to kick in to grab the URL from Google so whenever someone who knows what to look for gets it, it will be posted here
[Nexus 7 General] Argent36:
still no update here in Michigan

waiting for someone to up the URL or the image to sideload it

:)
[Nexus 7 General] styckx:
Grab the download URL from your logs and paste that update linkage! :cool:
[Nexus 7 General] jntdroid:
Occasionally this has worked to force an update... don't get your hopes up, though:

Settings > Apps > Google Services Framework > Force Stop/Clear Data > back out to settings, then about > updates > check...

someone confirm this works witha custom recovery...ion see how thats possible. as no phone ever updates via OTA witha custom recovery. nexus or no nexus.
[Nexus 7 General] Gr3m1in:
Not true I'm in Australia, and I'm the person who provided the screenshots and heads up for that EE times article that was first up about the update
[Nexus 7 General] JaSauders:
It might be time to go back to all of those people and tell them that you were wrong. While Nexus devices do often get quicker updates than other companies, the real benefit, as other users have already mentioned, is the ease of rooting.

It's been a day. One. Day. 24 hours. That's it. You'll get your update. Don't lose sleep over it.
[Nexus 7 General] tonybhoy:
exactly,just go to sleep and it will be there tomorrow:cool:
[Nexus 7 General] jpcalhoun:
Thanks for you help, but being a relatively noob, this looks a little more than I ready for...plus I don't understand exactly what that post refers too. Surely there is a more straight forward solution to this issue. Maybe not...thanks anyway.

[Nexus 7 General] SquireSCA:
This is the sort of stuff that takes from from being a noob, to someone that isn't. Seriously, you download a few files to a directory. Go to Start, type CMD to open a command shell. Type in "CD C:\Android" or whatever to go to where you saved the files you downloaded.

Seriously, this isn't like rooting or hacking a bootloader or any of the things that a lot of us had to learn to do with phones over the years. This is easy stuff, don't let the directions scare you.

You literally download files, open a command shell, go to where you saved the files, put the device into Recovery with pressing a couple buttons and then typing the command and hitting enter. It really is that easy.
[Nexus 7 General] irishrally:
Even better, learn how to work with your phone without ones of these toolkits. If something goes wrong with the toolkit you'll be clueless to troubleshoot and get things working. People using toolkit that are having issues should post in the toolkit thread.
[Nexus 7 General] jpcalhoun:
Thanks, but I've unlocked my bootloader and I am currently rooted. I have the Toolbox and have used it. That is not my problem. I'm trying to figure out how to get into a custom recovery or stock recovery after updating to 4.1.2.
[Nexus 7 General] sahshah:
jpcalhoun: Try installing this app it has option to directly boot into recovery:

[Nexus 7 General] kristovaher:
Well are talking about Google here. Server load is NOT an issue. Rollout is slow because should something go wrong, they want to catch it early so that not all devices would be affected.

factory images and binaries for 4.1.2 are online now:

https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images#nakasi

https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/drivers#grouper

do i need to flash both? did binaries change by OTA update?
[Nexus 7 General] neelabh75:
Not received an OTA as of now in India.
[Nexus 7 General] MRsf27:
Question... If we install this update via ota or flash and we rooted our device again, We really wouldn't be able to put any custom roms asbof right now could we? All roms are running 4.1.1 so wouldn't it defeat the purpose of the update?
[Nexus 7 General] nigameash:
Anyone on JRO03S received the update via OTA yet?
[Nexus 7 General] oldblue910:
It doesn't appear so. :(
[Nexus 7 General] scott_doyland:
Your question doesn't really make sense.

You only run one ROM at a time, which one is up to you. So update if you want to stock 4.1.2 but of course that's completely independent of any ROM you run at any other time.

What purpose is being defeated? Obviously flashing stock 4.1.2 and then immediately flashing any custom ROM is pointless, you have just flashed 4.1.2 stock for no reason no matter what version the custom ROM is.

Remember that some people have no idea about anything technical, they don't even know what a CMD window is and you would be amazed how instructions that are simple for a tech savvy person can be completely screwed up by the majority of non-techy people on XDA whereas the techy people wonder what all the fuss is about.

Its like me trying to follow instructions on how to plumb in a boiler, easy for a plumber but I'd **** it up.

Although I am sometimes astounded by how non-techy people seem unable to read previous posts to gain answers and insist on creating a new post asking the same question as 99% of other posts.

Ok, I've read so many threads I'm about blind. I'm unlocked, rooted and running Cookies and Cream rom. Am I able to update? If so, can someone point me in the right direction?
[Nexus 7 General] nixxofugi:
This update is pushed out in waves. That's why. Patience.
[Nexus 7 General] bozzykid:
If you are running a different ROM, how would you expect a OTA update for stock to even work? You have to go back to 4.1.1 and update with the OTA or flash the factory image if you want stock 4.1.2.
[Nexus 7 General] jonnyg1097:
Since you are on a ROM you may as well just wait for the ROM developer to update the ROM for you unless you want to go back to stock.
[Nexus 7 General] droid_1989:
Maybe it's just me, but the screens colours and quality is better in 4.1.2?

Update complete

The pain factor outgrew my threshold, so I wound up following the procedure outlined here:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=32606490&postcount=321

Thanks again to Silkagoon7!

And yeah, I did prefer the manual process. I've written enough automated tools in my day to know there's always some minute little thing that can go wrong when you least expect it, and then you're spending the next week studying that set of tools to find out what the hell you were thinking, and where you need to start picking up the pieces ...

Now rockin' JZO54K, rooted with CWM. :D

Now to get my UI restored. And the VPN configs. And, you know, everything else. :rolleyes:

Cheers!
[Nexus 7 General] gpo1956:
Thanks a@@. I was asking about the manual method.
[Nexus 7 General] Dorkington:
Unfortunately, I'd need a little bit of guidance on that front. It's been a yearish since I've flashed an Android device and I've forgotten everything. D'oh.
[Nexus 7 General] sqs1shu:
same here. can not wait.

mine is rooted (bootloader unlocked of course) and build number was JRO03D, busybox installed and open ssh from CM10. Here is my procedure after download JZO54K zip and clockworkmod recovery zip and unzip CWM zip:

1. adb push 'JZO54K zip file' /sdcard/

2. adb reboot bootloader

3. fastboot boot yourCWMDir/recovery-clockwork-touch-6.0.0.6-grouper.img (idea is from sikagoon7: not really install custom recovery but boot with it)

once in CWM recovery, did a backup just in case, then update the JZO54K zip, when come to reboot, I did choose to fix root.

[edited, even forgot to wipe cache and dalvik cache but update zip has necessary cleanup? as once rebooted, it did app 'upgrading' thing]

After reboot, only thing odd was that my wifi icon was greyed, so I reset the connection to fix it. After playing it for about 10 minutes. Everything else seems OK, I still have root and build number is JZO54K and open ssh survived as well. It could be placebo or not enough tests: when open Flipboard, no white spots any more.

Be warned that file names are generic description here.

[Nexus 7 General] keyslapper:
Figures ...

If I had only done another scan on the factory images page when I got home, I could have saved myself a lot of time. Looks like Google slapped the JZO54K factory image up between the time I left work and the time I got home. I still would have had to restore my data and reacquire root and install CWM, but the move to 4.1.2 would have been a lot faster. :rolleyes:

Silkagoon7's process will work, but the easier way is to just go get the factory image for 4.1.2 here and install that. Just use step 1 in S7's process, but use the new image instead of JRO03D. Then move on to the root/CWM steps. Half the time from start to finish - less, really.

Cheers again!
[Nexus 7 General] GunnerMC:
can we restore a 4.1.1 titanium app backup on a 4.1.2? because since there's still no ota from JRO03S I wan't to flash the 4.1.2 factory image.
[Nexus 7 General] grieshmp:
I asked the same question after my update failed. I was told that I need to be on full stock w stock kernel.
[Nexus 7 General] oscarba:
Not true, I'm 100% stock and the update failed because I'm on S and update is for D.
[Nexus 7 General] thephantom:
That's not exactly an apples to apples comparison. The update file does indicate it is for the 4.1.1 D to 4.1.2 so using it on the S build would really generate an error
[Nexus 7 General] jptech:
I have not received an update notification. I even checked for update.

And I'm on stock everything. JRO03D.
[Nexus 7 General] oldblue910:
People, sometimes it can take over a week for the OTA update to roll out to everyone. Either be patient or flash it manually. You can flash it manually using stock recovery and ADB. You don't need to be unlocked, rooted, or anything else. You won't lose any data by flashing manually, and it's the exact same update file your device will download when the OTA reaches you. You're just triggering the update yourself.

All you need is the Android SDK installed, and your USB cable. If you can't be bothered to flash manually, then just be patient. The OTA will get to you.

NOTE: The above rant only applies to people running JRO03D. If you're on JRO03S, you have no choice but to wait (unless you want to unlock your bootloader and wipe your device) since nobody has posted a link for that OTA file, and we're not even sure Google has started rolling it out yet.
