Anyone get the OTA yet? I've been trying to force it since yesterday and it doesn't appear to work yet. Worked first time on my Nexus 7.

edit:

ah, I can see a few people have above. Weird that I can't force it though.

Still waiting for both it and the factory image.

Think i will pick one up next week(New),and hopefully get the 4.2 update.Get a N4 next year when all the hype dies off.

BoomAM · 18 Nov 2012 at 21:20

Still waiting.

Borderline annoying now. Has it been pulled?

_Jimlad_ · 18 Nov 2012 at 21:25

nope none, been using the n4 and gn all day, not much between them, i prefer gn in many areas

alex24 · 18 Nov 2012 at 21:29

It was never up to be pulled. I suspect a couple of the bugs that rather quickly came to light when it was initially released are being addressed before OTA is delivered. Still, looking forward to having a stopwatch and timer, finally. Tried the new gesture keyboard on the N7 and it's actually pretty good. Will be even more useful for one handed texting etc. Although lockscreen widgets seem like a good idea, can't see me using them. IMO it's just like having another basic layer of homescreens, which seems redundant.

please elaborate

Screen and speed are the areas I would like some comparisons on. Thanks.

I think Takju has bugs and they are holding back Yakju.

Where is the evidence for that though?
As ive seen 4-5 news articles within the last week that say that the Yakju builds are rolling out.

hillbilly2 · 19 Nov 2012 at 11:39

So white or black/gray?

Hard to say the n4 is snappy between apps and reading small text is easier. Feels premium. But I just still love the gn. I have 3 N4s buying for £400 selling for £500 lol

Put it this way I'm in no rush to switch. But as long as I keep selling at £75 - £125 profit it will pay for my N4

kona786 · 19 Nov 2012 at 12:01

Great profit! Cheers.

OTA news:

"The Android 4.2 system update is still rolling out gradually to eligible Galaxy Nexus devices, but we haven't quite started it for yakju yet. We're working on it and hope to expand the rollout before long. There's no timeline I'm able to provide. Note that we're the ones updating yakju and takju, but not variants of yakju."

Spammeh · 20 Nov 2012 at 15:22

How do you know which version of the GN you have? yakhu or takju?

My wife has my GN but I'm staying with the SGS3 for the time being.

FredFlint · 20 Nov 2012 at 20:43

Factory Image for 4.2 yakju is up.

alex24 · 20 Nov 2012 at 21:08

OTA is arriving as well, although even after various attempts at the framework trick, I'm still not getting it.

Sunbed · 20 Nov 2012 at 21:36

OTA arrived for me a few hours ago. Bit of an anti-climax tbh

photo sphere is OK, not perfect though.
