Just got Verizon 4.0.4 OTA!

*checks phone excitedly*

...No, not for me.

 

[Voltron64]

Just got Verizon 4.0.4 OTA!

I just got the update too. It only took 6 months for an update...not bad for a nexus device. :|

 

[iavi]

Just got the 4.04 OTA here too! Late as hell, but better than never - to look at in a glass-half-full manner.

 

[AlphaDragoon]

Every time someone updates the thread talking about how they got it I go check my phone and then get bummed when I still see "Your system is currently up to date" on 4.0.2.

Tip For Forcing update

GSM dudes: What's the best value extended battery? NFC is something I'd like.

I bought this one. It's the official Samsung one.

 

[OG_Original Gamer]

Just got the update as well, don't have wifi on if you won't the update. I don't know if the force worked, tried the above link.

 

[Khalifa Jayy]

Is 4.0.4 available for Verizon yet...?

 

[overthehill99]

I thought the News and Weather app was suppose to get updated in 4.0.4? It looks exactly the same.

 

[OG_Original Gamer]

Definitely has a better radio

 

[krzy123]

got my OTA, used a variation of the trick posted above.

 

[TheLegendary]

I BELIEVE! I knew this day would come!

Seconded. Official 2000mah Battery with nfc, and new backplate to accommodate the bigger battery.

hey, so why are you guys waiting for the OTA to actually be hand delivered OTA? can't you just dl it and run it in stock recovery?

You can't on the Nexus without root. The stock recovery looks in the system/cache partition for the update instead of the root of SD card.

Stock battery:

yeah sleep now is kinda crazy. I'm on extended battery but after three hours the charge drop looks practically flat...

 

[AlphaDragoon]

Hell yeah, that method of forcing it did the trick. 4.0.4, here I come.

When I got my phone in December, I setup my hotmail account with Exchange no problem, it was set to push and I never had an issue. Recently I tried to check the mail manually and it said "could not connect to server" and I noticed it used 600mb of data in a 4 days.

So I disabled it until my data usage was reset and I still cant connect anymore. I tried deleting and reinputting my account but to no avail.

Anyway, does anyone else have a problem with hotmail, and if it no longer works what app should I use for hotmail?

Have you tried clearing the data for the application?

I should note that will erase every account/data inside the email app.

My Nexus died.

I was playing a tower game, it froze on me and made a horrible sound. Nexus was unresponsive, just frozen on the game screen making the noise, wouldn't shut off with the power button so I removed the battery. Now it's not working. I tried battery in and out. Tried holding the power and volume at the same time, nothing. The PC did recognize it initially so it's not a brick, probably just corrupted? but now I cant get the PC to see it again.

Any suggestions? I tried having my PC look for new hardware but didnt detect it.

So much for the wonders of 4.0.4. I can't download anything from the Play Store since. I get error 921.


Tried clearing the play store and download manager caches

So I got a otterbox defender for $27 off Amazon today. Wanted a commuter but none were prime shipping so I went with the defender. Anyone have one with a GSM model and 2000 mAh battery, I want to know how well it will fit .

 

[Revenant]

Just rooted and move on to AOKP M5... feels good.

So what can I do with my new powers to improve this things battery life.

Was wondering the same for a LTE with extended battery

I've never tried lean kernel, but Franco.Kernel has its own app on market where you have easy kernel control and can update from stable/nightly. You have full control over each core and have various modes that'll adjust based on use like music, balanced, power save, full-power. Easily the most accessible kernel features I've ever used, and battery life for idle is amazing. I've had my phone on 8% and let it run over night -- 11 hours later it was at 4%. This is with lazy scaling and "on demand" power mode.

I thought this worked but when I enter the app, my msgs are old and I cant send mail or receive mail actually. If I add another email it works and connects to server fine but now that I try readding my defualt mail it says "cannot find server" once again. Any ideas?

 

[Khalifa Jayy]

Got it! Feels a tad snappier, but the keyboard feels like its multi touch ability has been toned down a bit. We'll see after playing with it more.

Wait ...
It auto corrects on GAF now! Holy shit!

 

[HeySeuss]

Just woke up to the OTA update for Verizon. Damn between this and Nintendos e3 conference, this day is shaping up nicely!

And auto correct for Gaf is a nice touch.

 

[NH Apache]

Just got the update...gotta say, pretty slick!

That app has support for Imo's Lean Kernel as well now. It's pretty great and I like it better than SetCPU or any of the other similar apps.

That's right. I totally forgot because I never used it.
