Stock 4.2.1 Not Updating OTA - Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello friends,
I am new to Android. I am stuck on stock rooted 4.2.1 still and the OTA says I don't need an update.
Help friends.

which country are you? usually OTA are released country by country, not whole world once; it might take few days until available in your country/operators

NYC

It is released randomly. It has nothing to do with country or carrier. You can either wait or flash it manually.

Market not working after root and unlock

So I decided to root and unlock my 4.1.1 N7 today. Everything went according to plan. When I set myself to return my tablet to its former app glory, I found myself with the following message when opening Play Store:
Error retrieving information from server. (DF-DFERH-01)
Market was working before root. Funny thing is, despite being unable to open the play store, It is still able to auto update :/
Any thoughts? I already tried clearing/deleting market cache, no good...

Just clear your app store data, ect. Then relaunch it. That is what I had to do.
I had the same error in my GNex today.....It has nothing to do with clearing up the data in the Apps settings.....
Clearing my app store data does nothing for me...
Sent from my GT-I9100 using Tapatalk 2
Have the same issue on My Nexus 7. Only difference being I've not used a bootloader or anything like that, it's just literally out the box. App store has never worked at all today, although i can install directly and still get updates...but not install those updates.
tried clearing cache and data then rebooting. removing email account and also removing google wallet settings.
No joy so far on any attempts I've made.
When I had this problem on my old GTablet, I had to force close Google Services Framework, clear data, then reboot to get it back. This is in addition to clearing cache and data of the Market.

I'm also from Puerto Rico but the problem seems to be with providers with local IP Address like Claro in the case of mobile phones or local internet providers like liberty, claro etc.. but not on Carriers with US IP addresses like tmobile or At&t tha's why I can access if I use my phone but not using my wifi at home.
Hope this helps, and if anyone finds an answer please let us know because i haven't seen any report on google about this issue.

I forgot to tell that if you need an app from the market you can access via web and make the download to your device that way. That's what I've been doing until this gets fixed. It works for updates too. Hope this helps.
Funny thing going on. Using wifi, my Xperia Play illicits the same error code as my Nexus 7. Yet my MIUI SGS II works great with wifi... I'm stumped.

Just install the APK, it's the same as the one you'll automatically get anyway
It's not a problem, just be patient if you don't want to install the APK. I haven't got it yet either.

From what I have read, its only rolling out in the U.S. at this point in time. I'm sure the rest of us will get it soon enough.

Seems like a waste of time when you can just install the apk. Same thing you would get if it was pushed by Google.

I manually installed the latest Play app, but I can't say I really like it. At first glance the design seems to be reverted to the Android 2.x user interface. I don't get it why Google chose a green title bar.

I wasn't trying to be rude, it would appear you read into my response and assumed I was being rude
Anyway, if you search 'Google Play 4.0.26' in the 'Search All Forums' box up in the top right corner you'll get a lot of results for the APK
You can pull APKs without root using this guide:

New Google Apps from Nexus 5 Dump

Droid Life is posting the new google apps that came from a nexus 5 which is, as you know, running android 4.4 . I can confirm the new google launcher works after installing google search and google play. Im pretty sure most others should work fine on the X. Post if working or if not!:good:
http://www.droid-life.com/2013/10/31/download-new-google-apps-from-the-nexus-5-dump-search-launcher-and-more/#more-123662
So I have installed all of the leaked apps. The only one that did not work is the clock. I've cleared the data on the app but it didn't make a difference. In in the Verizon Moto X. Only other problem is email app is missing the exchange option for me.
Anyone else try these? Any workaround for the clock?
Sent from my Nexus 10 using Tapatalk 4
You need to be rooted and uninstall the clock app and reinstall the leaked apk from what I've read. Android police had a write up on it.
Sent from my XT1060 using xda app-developers app
I'm rooted, followed the directions, still couldn't get it to work. No biggie...the clock isn't all that different.
Wish we had the dialer!
Can you install the new launcher without being rooted? Or is that required for all of these leaked apps? Looked like it just said side load them...
I had trouble sending mms with the new hangouts. I'm stock non rooted newest ota

I installed everything without root. An article I saw said to install the playstore, then search, then the launcher.

Yes, you can install new launcher without being rooted. No, you can not install that new clock without root.
Basically you can install everything but clock

wierd does the new email not do exchange?
dont install the new google now if you like your voice activation i get crashes all the time now
Thanks Derek ross for the solution
Long press the home screen, select Settings. Select Voice. Select Language to change the default. Change to another language, I choose English – UK. Hit Home. Do a Google Search. Repeat the first three steps. Change back to English – US.
also update your language pack in the settings as well.
Is the new dialer included in any of these yet?
