JWR66Y update not available? - Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Guys, I've been checking for system updates for a week, but JWR66Y update has never shown up. I'm running fully stock, no root or anything. Am I doing something wrong?

You could flash the factory image instead of waiting for the OTA update.
You're not doing anything wrong. Just keep trying.

Many thanks for your response!
I take it, flashing the factory image would mean losing all data, and I'd rather avoid that.
I will keep trying to get the OTA update, just thought it would be available by now, it's been a week already

Try forcing the OTA update

First you want to check for an update the traditional way:
Go into your Android device’s main Settings.
Scroll down to the bottom and tap on About Phone.
Tap on System Updates (or something along those lines).
If applicable, tap on Check Now.
If you get notified that an update is available, then your done!
If you weren’t so lucky, then follow these steps:
Go into your Android device’s main Settings.
Tap on the option for Apps (or something along those lines).
Swipe over (or change the filter) to the All tab (where you can see all the apps on your device).
Find Google Services Frame work and tap on it.
Hit Clear Data (this wipes back-end Google information that clears the update logs).
Press Force Stop to close the Google Services Framework application.
Check for an update using the traditional method outlined above.
This method works on both smartphones and tablets, but like we mentioned earlier there has to actually be an update available for your device’s specific model. As in, if you have a Verizon Galaxy S3, there has to be an update specifically for the Verizon version of the SGS3. Also, for those of you wondering, clearing the data for Google Services Framework doesn’t delete your Google accounts, contacts, calendar or anything like that from your phone.

You're able to install the ota.zip using the stock recovery and adb sideload
Where to download the package and how to do that should be explained in the ota help thread (I guess it's the thread)

[Q] [HELP] Download again Android 4.3 via OTA

Hi to everyone,
I downloaded Android 4.3 via OTA but I didn't install it immediately. After some days by mistake I cleared all the data in the Cache, so I couldn't install it because I lost the data.
I tried to clear the data in google service framework process after I checked for the updates but my phone says the system is up to date even if I have the 4.2 installed on it. How can I download the 4.3 update again in the simplest way?

Keep trying the same trick as it won't work in the first attempt.. I had tried it for almost 15 times a day..
Simple way is why dont you try any 4.3 custom rom if you are rooted??
Rooting your phone won't harm you or your phone... all upto you. :good:
I'm having little same problem.
Yesterday i received my RMA Nexus 4 and it was shipped with 4.2.2. I received notification for 4.3 to installed but when i clicked on restart and install. Notification disappeared and nothing happen to phone. since then i'm not getting any update for 4.3 at all. Triad many times since yesterday.
Any advice or trick would be welcome.

I havent rooted my phone because I don't want to lose warranty. I rooted my old HTC desire and partitioned the SD card as it had no space for apps. So I'll keep trying. Do you think Google will let me download again the ota? Or I'll be disabled for downloading the 4.3 seen that I already downloaded it?. Thank for your reply

Try it a couple of times. And make sure to clear cache AND data.
Maybe also Force close it.
You can also try the following:
Do exact to same but instead of typing *#*#blabla#*#* after deleting cache etc you gonna restart. After reboot go to system update it should be there.
I was lucky it worked for the first time but I remember members here tried it 7+ times and then got result.

Thanks I'll try to get the code for the URL. I have two questions:
1) Once I get the URL and I direct download the ota how can I install the updates? I mean (no root, no custom rom) just upgrade "legally"
2) Does the OTA delete the apps I have installed or any data like photos or music on my smartphone?

hahahahaha Legally? you act like rooting is going to get you thrown in jail.... LOL, well I have never done it "legally" as you say but I would assume there are directions in the link or on the web. Probably download zip to phone and there should be an update.zip option to use in stock recovery. OTA wont delete anything you have on your phone but ya know if you rooted it you would be able to nandroid all of that.
The pros of rooting out way any con you could possibly have but hey its your phone so enjoy. Also 4.3 stock is not exactly a major upgrade that you will notice but hopefully it fixes something you may have had an issue with on 4.2.2

Make sure you have a backup in TWRP before running this as it does not take kindly to root. I had a "Shutdown" loop after installing on rooted device.

I installed the update while rooted and now my phone is power cycling and I can't get it to stop. My fault for not unrooting, I know, but if anyone has insight on how to fix this, it'd be appreciated.
Well I unrooted by fxz save data then installed the pwnmymoto apk took the update and got root back all is normal but I can't access touchless control it wont allow me to check the box. google search works but not touchless control. Can we fxz back with this update or will it brick our phone.
Ok I unistalled and then updated the app but now I get to the training screen but it doesn't activate it's like it can't hear me.

You have to update it from the play store. I had that problem before the update. Could you tell me the exact process you used to root the update? I'm about to try and upgrade, but can't survive without root lol

I did an fxz save data with house of moto which restores to stock but keeps data. Then I re-installed pwnmymoto but did not run it. rebooted to recovery and installed the update from my sdcard. everything went fine but no touchless controls I installed the update and still it would not let me past the training screen. So I said **** it and installed the stock recovery did a factory reset and now I am good I will just juse the new root method.
If you use my method above when you reboot after the update pwnmymoto will automatically run and install root it cycles 3 times so don't worry you are not in a bootloop with it shutting on and off.
The adb root method? By jcase? I'm a little hesitant to use that one. Since I have no prior adb experience

PwnMyMoto was an apk you download http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2444954
Super super easy to do.
Glad to hear someone was able to use this as a new ota root method. But I haven't heard of many others doing this. It's still a little early to hear all the news.

Brilliant! Booted to system version 12.15.15. So...followed these directions to maintain root:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2466191
To apply the "OTA" I booted to stock recovery and updated from SD. This failed, but booted to 12.15.15.
Then in the above directions, used fastboot to install the new baseband from the modem drivers from another thread in this forum.

Just to help anyone out I am part of the soak test. If you try to update by hiding root and then flashing stock recover you will get error from trying to install from stock recovery or if you where able to do an ota it will fail. It will show afterwards that you are on the version but you are lacking some things. Anyways The way That I got everything to work without a single error including the baseband coming from the ota .
used fastboot to flash recovery back to stock recover . Flashed stock system to system in fastboot. After that then I installed that I backed up after download from verizon through stock recovery from sd card. after I came back online. I used adb and the RockMyMoto Root and walla everything good to go.
Hope this info helps some !!

Interesting... How do you determine the you are missing stuff? How did you flash the stock system?
Things seem to be running fine through my method, but the update did fail and I certainly haven't tried everything.

It appears at least some things were updated. When I rebooted, I got the "moto camera" update from the market and when I check build number it is the 15.15.15 update so it looks like that went through. I'm just curious as to what "failed" and what made it through.
For those that failed halfway through, you most likely don't have the new baseband (95). You'll be unable to take future updates until you get everything squared away.

[Q] KitKat let me uninstall the Play Store app. Completely. What now..?!

So the OTA URL finally started being shared last night and I decided to take a few minutes this morning to sideload it. My Nexus 4 is locked and unrooted (the main reason I used to root other phones was that I wanted to have the latest version of Android and/or get rid of HTC Sense).
Anyway, after updating and playing around a bit I went to update some apps and found that the Play Store threw force close errors every time I tried. Knowing that I'd previously updated the store app from an apk I thought it might be related, so went to uninstall updates. However, the button read only 'Uninstall', not 'Uninstall updates' and as such the app was removed and no longer shows in the launcher or apps list in settings. I thought a simple reboot might kick things into action, but no luck there.
Now, I completely concede that I should have noticed this before I read it (long week, stupidity, etc), but this shouldn't really be something which the user is able to do. I think what's happened here is that the update script has removed the old version and skipped adding the new one into my system directory when it detected that the same version was already present. I've managed to reinstall the Play Store apk, but it's not functioning correctly, crashing whenever I go to install something.
All of which brings me to my main question: Where do I go from here?!
I assume I can't just re-sideload the update since I'm now on KRT16S. I'd prefer not to flash the factory image, since it's a bit of a pain having to redo everything, but if that's the only option then I guess I'll have to take it. Any other ideas?
Edit: I've also shared this on Google+ here. I'll update this thread with a solution if/when one comes.

[Q] We see lots of OTA related problems, how do you disable OTA?

Today I had to restart my phone because it dropped data connection, the moment I restarted it said my phone was being updated and I should wait, it wasted my time and it shoved 10o update down my throat.
If I had recovery installed, this could have been disastrous, no?
Not only for recovery related problems, but this may also prevent people from being able to install certain things, or even one day in the future with a different update just block root?
How do we uninstall then disable OTA updates on an unrooted phone? When I disabled and cancelled notifications for Software Update app, I thought it was fixed, but it probably made it worse, it just installed without any notification or prompt.
I was planning to root and install twrp this weekend, now with all the horror stories I've been reading, I don't want to do it. :crying:
How is AT&T even allowed to push it without explicit permit to install on device.

I did that when I first got the notification. Notification disappeared. 2 days later I restarted my phone for the first time in over a week, and bam, it installed without any notification at all. So disabling notification won't stop it from installing, it seems..
I know this doesn't directly help your situation since you're not rooted but this should help someone who is.
I had to freeze "Software Update 2.3.0.5" using titanium backup for it to stop. Not sure of a way to do it without root or without the pro version of titanium.

If you have the ota, you could use root explorer or browser to go into the Cache folder and delete it(ota) then try to install it will fail or do nothing then hit cancel

What version of the G2 do you have? I'm on Sprint and I don't have "Software Update", I have "Update Device 4.5.1.10" which I just froze.
Does anyone know if I install the update can I still flash TWRP to my device? I'm not sure if I should install TWRP now and use the flashable ota zip or install it after I update it.

I'm asking the same question OP is asking, is there a way to disable the update on non-rooted phones? And from experience with several other Android phones... I know it's pretty much impossible to downgrade unless you start flashing, but I'm gonna ask anyways. Is there a way to downgrade the upgrade that was forced down OP's throat and my own throat? For me it actually updated in my sleep, I woke up and it said my phone was updated. OP and I are on AT&T's D800 variant.

Well, it would still help to avoid further OTA's from being applied if we are rooted and do not use custom rom, there is always a risk of getting OTA and messing everything up, therefore if freezing above app worked for you, it should be all we need. Is Software Update the actual app which checks for version and receives pushes from AT&T when a new OTA is available, or if there are other apps/modules that does this. The problem is, if it is incorporated into android system like some of the other stuff AT&T incorporated, it would be impossible to completely eliminate it without running a custom rom.

Awesome the above instructions worked great! Thank you very much brother
disable ota on at&t
Did you totally remove the apk, or rename it? Also, if removed, will it cause other problems?
I only ask cause i had a g2 that was pushed an ota and bricked my g2. Had to get a new one, now trying ti disable the ota's from doing that again..
Then when kitkat is released, am i not able to update it, then root again?

How can I downgrade?
I don't mind paying for titanium to freeze the app. This is nonsense, enjoyment just update by itself, lucky I didn't install recovery.

you have to flash the old version by using LG Flash Tool, like I did.
So, I have a question for you guys. I got my phone yesterday and I'm on 10o. I installed the CWM recovery for 10o via Flashify, and now I'm concerned about OTAs - I disabled it via the Hidden Menu, but if there's an OTA to update the phone to 4.3 or 4.4, I'd like to receive it and not worry about bricking my phone.
I don't plan on doing a lot of custom ROM flashing, I really just wanted to root and install Xposed. Do I need to flash a stock ROM and go back to stock recovery, so I don't have to worry about OTAs? Or should I be good with CWM and the stock ROM that I rooted?

New Software downloading... Stock

So LG decided to update software. Is downloading now, i'm curious what version will be.
I think i will lose root and custom recovery after installing.

Probably really minor. I hope for a QRemote update

It's 117.38 MB, but it's slow..slow dwl.
System ROM is 2GB so its unlikely to be anything significant

It will not install if you have custom recovery. Will reboot only in recovery. I had to restore to my latest back-up (edit: and same thing ) I think i will revert to stock.
This update : Apps enhancement.
Which base? Still jelly bean 4.2.2?
Can someone make a flashbacks zip we can update the new changes via twrp. Or cwm?

I downloaded the update files and rebooted the tablet but at 3% it gives me this error err:0x13E . After that the tablet was restarted and booted on android and shows me that the tablet is suspected of rooting and cannot be updated.I have android 4.2.2 stock firmware with root access What can i do?
Installed the upgrade but have no idea what the changes are.

Is "Drive" its exact and complete name? I don't seem to have got that, it might be market-specific... Are you sure you are not mixing it up with Drive from Google?

Yes it is google drive but i have not downloaded it was not there before the update
Got this "V50010B" update via OTA yesterday (in Italy on an Italian G Pad).
Things I have noticed so far are they have corrected a couple of bugs: tap sounds randomly muted and then randomly working again (I have them on) and a bug where you have the "Auto-show the Remote in the lockscreen when on some AP" option ON and the time widget would "multiply", over time.
P.S. I didn't lose root and I forgot to disable Xposed before updating but it hasn't affected anything. Everything works perfectly well after the update.
I have noticed two changes after the update.
1. Screen seems to be brighter on minimum brightness. Those who was crying for the 7 led's leek, can be happy.
2. If you lock screen rotation, it will be locked on the current position, instead of going back to portrait mode. Now you can lie on your side, and use the tab on landscape:good: !

Oh.. OK. They must have made it a "system app" now whereas it wasn't before :good:

Good to know! The few times I lock the screen (of both my smartphone and my tablet) I usually need it in portrait but I have always found VERY STUPID this behaviour some makers/devices have of locking the orientation always and only in portrait!!
My Note II unfortunately has it, I didn't notice the G Pad had it too (I have probably never tried to lock it in landscape, so far) but I am very glad it hasn't anymore! :good:
I still haven't got the update as of noon eastern time today. Do they push it in waves or something?

For anyone tryed to flash the update with TWRP recovery and stuck into "recovery bootloop" just do this.
1)Boot into recovery
2)Go to "Advanced" and then "Terminal Command" and choose root folder.
3)Type this and then hit enter. TRY TO TYPE IT RIGHT OR YOU WILL BRICK YOUR DEVICE
Code:
dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/fota
PS:Without this command even restore will not work
Ps2:Credits to the thecubed
