4.2 - Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

When do you think we will see 4.2?
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 2

We should see them start rolling it from Nov 13th, not before that.

As per the announcement from Google, mid November... the 13th at the soonest.

Add a week past Nov 13 for a rolling update.

Who waits for updates? Lol we will have it within a day it drops.

I think generally the sdk gets released first with the source/ota days later.
My take on the announcement is that the date of the 13th being given relates to the play store changes and may not relate directly to 4.2 seeing as these store features are already available in the us and will also apply to older versions (the only new feature, music matching, is probably an upgrade to the upload from pc.)

Best Guess: Ice Cream for I9100

This is a game thread with guessing...
Depending on Samsung Updates vs. Google Updates intervals, make a best guess for ICS to be officially released for SGS earliest... ICS will be available at October 19th, 2011...
Most close answer wins.
Bring it on...
---
My guess: November 14th, 2011
Reason: Samsung needs urgent update to get rid of court cases of Apple for these devices.
December, no earlier.
Emm, my guess is 03.2012 or later.

You sirs are wrong! It will be released in May 23th.
December 25th. Merry Christmas!

after they announced it and all other android phones will upgrade to ics on tuesday.
Well, according to Johnny Mathis, not until, The Twelth of Never ( and that's a long, long time.)
For India, I think we are not going to get it officially, because still we have not received update to 2.3.4 or 2.3.5.
You'll still be able to flash it if/when it ICS drops.
My guess: The same day it leaks here!

That is fake. it's most likely a blue themed rom (lightening?) With ics launcher from the market

I'd say too it is a fake. Why he/she does not show the version number from settings as usually?

US Release before 2013?

US releases have been 6 mo after International.
Posts here lead me to think US carriers are releasing the 2 much sooner?
This possible?!
Thanks
I guess you missed how the GSIII was released then huh.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 2
I believe that it will be released late October or early November from everything i have read, in the same manor as the GSIII was released to all the U.S. carriers as mentioned above.

That puts us between Oct 15th and Nov 15th

Just in time for my AT&T upgrade eligibility coming up on October 14 (but who's counting?).
I can't wait for this thing to come out...
I just want to see it be announced before October ends.
You mean to say 'the GNote 2 will be released in similar fashion to the GSIII' right?

If US releases are in November, we should expect them before Black Friday?

How long will we have to wait for 4.2??

Hi all,
the nexus 7 is my first nexus device (although I am drooling at the nexus 4 ),
but I was just wondering if anyone else, who has owned a different nexus device, could tell me how long you normally have to wait for the next version of android?.
Thanks in advance
Cheers

Some of the features will be available on the Nexus 7, some won't and you'll need to get a whole new device costing a small fortune to get the full update. It might break things along the way without giving you a way back.
....but then I remember it's Android and not Apple!

..... I'm not entirely sure what you're trying to say here.
Being part of the whole Nexus line, there's a good chance we'll get 4.2 pushed out when the Nexus 4 and 10 get released. Google will be keen to have its flagship line all under the same version.

I agree. Google made it pretty clear (to me at least) that the Nexus line will be receiving the 4.2 update. There was absolutely no mention of Nexus 7 not receiving certain aspects of the update. I would say that Nexus 7 would receive the update the same day the 4 and 10 are released as well.

This is a joke for you guys who don't get it. All Nexus devices get updated I think. I think even old ones like the Nexus S and all that.
Lol well if he meant it as a joke it didn't read like one. Especially since a new device owner was asking about something he deemed a legit concern. If it was meant as a joke then my fault.

I agree. Pretty dumb answer to someone asking a legitimate question.
Google was supposed to release the 4,2 update on October 29th, but according to Asus it has been delayed ever so slightly.Asus says to expect an update to android 4.2 very soon.

Looking forward to it. People aren't used to nexus devices, they are used to their galaxy tabs that take forever to update and get cut off too soon

My friend is still on stock N7 and got the update within a week. My dad is still on his stock S3 and the update won't come till next year.
Edit: I'm referring to 4.1.2 and 4.1.

I think you are confusing 4.1.2 with 4.2.
As far as I know, no one will have 4.2 before 13 November.

I'm not confused. I'm confusing others. I meant to say the last update. I'll leave the correction under that post.

Expect android 4.2 on November 11th to November 12th on the nexus 7
Hi,
Thanks heaps guys, as long as we with the n7 arnt left in the lurch for weeks after the update comes out on the n4
My friend has a nexus s, and he had to wait a few weeks after 4.1 was released before he got it, but our devices are newer I suppose
Thanks
Cheers

Unless you sideload, don't expect it on the 13th. OTA rolling updates can take up to a couple of weeks.

Got a reliable source on that? I'm guessing no because it's not true. Google has never released an OS on the day it was announced, and when they announce a new device, they never release the OS for older hardware until the new device is available. So the correct answer is to expect the update in the weeks following the N4/N10 release. Hopefully it will be out within a week, but it can take longer.
Google has said they will start rolling out 4.2 from Nov 11th, 2 days before new devices release.

when is the nexus 4 restock?

i heard march 2013?
March 2013? That's insane. It can't be.
All google said was they have orders that will take them until Janurary to fulfill.
I bet they already sent orders to CHINA to make a new batch for January to sell
