You will have to go back to stock before you will even be notified of the update. When I had my droid 1 it took a week after the release before I received the update to 2.2

A great write up, but darn my windows machine and Linux in-experiences
http://technology.gather.com/viewArticle.action?articleId=281474979452576
here is another news story on it.
Anyone updated yet
I have tried on 2 stock roms (rooted) and neither say there is an update available - before going back to stock via the 11 step process, has anyone actually updated their device yet - or am I just not patient enough and the update is actually rolling out slowly and not available manually? Any help is appreciated, since I would hate to blast phones to get the update (i would rather wait on a rooted version, but would love to get a better experience than the current ROM provides!)

I too would rather wait for a rooted version but I'm too excited to use Gingerbread. I will roll back my rom to the original tonight via Moto RSD Lite and then try the update, I will report back if all goes well... or not, hehe.

try *#*#checkin#*# or the other way around, i forgot.
My wife has the D2 Global on vzw. running the orig 2.2 not rooted or bootstrapped.
No update notifications / plus the software update says the phone is up to date.
*#*#2432546#*#*
Checkin works fine, still no update atleast in the Phoenix Metro Cell System.
Just tried checkin as well and no gingerbread love here, either. In Columbus, Ohio. I believe the update is still in it's "soak-test" phase, which means only a select few will actually receive it just yet. My guess is we're sstill a week out from actual release, but don't quote me on it. Only wishful hoping at this point .
Nothing here in NC yet.
Ive tried the *#*#checkin#*#* also no go.
Anyone got it yet? I wish we can find the SBF so we can just flash it ourselves
will being rooted prevent me from getting the update?

If you have a custom ROM on your rooted device then most defiantly. I went back to the original stock using the 11 step process without a problem, but you will most probably have to wipe/factory data to get it to work.
I'm still waiting for the new update though
Root, etc.
Just got a Droid 2 Global from Assurion (brand new) as a replacement for a stolen Droid 2. Pure stock, never been rooted; no update. So those of you with no update don't need to panic over whether you ran Z4ROOT or not; the update is NOT yet here, at least on my phone (California) and it is pure as the driven snow.

This is the latest. Its rolling out today. slowly. I wish someone would just get the SBF and we can flash it.

I'm pretty sure it would be an update.zip file, not an sbf file, but all the same it would be nice if someone would just copy it to their pc before updating so we could all have it already.

[Q] I'mgetting "Error in /tmp/sideload/package.zip" when I try to update my Nexus S
I've searched countless times on how to fix this, yet every time I find a thread containing someone asking about this they never answer it or they're dealing with a rooted device.
My device is not, and has never been, rooted. Never manually updated anything on the phone before trying now.
I tried to manually update to 2.3.3 after never receiving the OTA. Then I tried the 2.3.4 update and I keep getting the "Error in /tmp/sideload/package.zip" message.
Can someone explain, or point me in the direction, of a non-rooted answer. Why am I getting this message to begin with?
Do you own the European version? The SLCD 19023 one?
No, it's the American version.
It's weird because I received the 2.3.2 update. But aftr that...I never got the 2.3.3 pushed to me. And now when I try to manually update to the .3 or .4 update...I keep getting that message.

me too. the same problem with my Nexus S
And me too, Davey. Same problem. Bought the Nexus S in New York on late December and I live in Spain. My phone is unrooted.
Haven't received the OTA for 2.3.3 yet and tried both manually updates for 2.3.3 and 2.3.4, but getting the same message as you.
It's frustrating!
Same problem here with a UK-bought Nexus S. I have tried with the bootloader Locked and Unlocked. Although bought in UK there is no guarantee that it is not an American import. It was bought from Carphone Warehouse who seem to source their kit from any where they can get it.
So as other people are successfully installing it has to be something specific to this physical handset.

So from the few posts here it's seeming like an international device issue...but yet I'm in the States. So I don't get it.
It's just frustrating that I can't get an answer about it. Many a people are speaking on it, but nobody can explain or solve it. Sigh.
Same issue as you - error in /tmp/sideload
I have Nexus S 2.3.3 (manually updated) from US. I am trying to manually bump it to 2.3.4 -- same issue. I have rooted & unlocked the device. No Mods here.
Same error.

Build GRI40
Updated!!!
OK guys -- Finally figured out the problem for /tmp/sideload/package.zip.
If there is any change to the bootloader by any app (RomManager or has ClockWorkMod), then you won't be manually be able to upgrade to 2.3.4
Solution for those on GRI40 2.3.3
1. Flash stock 2.3.3 gingerbread again in recovery more. Do a quick search on XDA and grab it. Almost 90 MB file.
2. Once flashed - Boot it, sign in with google account and under setting, privacy - do a factory data reset. Start it clean. I DID NOT checked the SD card data.
3. Flashed 2.3.3 in recovery again.
4. Reboot it. Did not signed in once booted. Turn USB ON. Put the 2.3.4 file (around 12 MB).
5. Flash it again in recovery mode.
6. I signed in to Google account without restoring my backup.
That's it. On 2.3.4 - Unlocked state remains!
Hi there!
Finally managed to install the 2.3.4 version on my Nexus S and works perfect! Already tried the Google Talk video chat and it's fantastic.
You can find all the instructions and the update files in the following link (thanks to the impaler for that):

Been trying it for two days, says no software update available..Does anyone know if this has been pulled back?
When I called AT&T about the update, I was told that the new update was only for selected devices that needed it based on the IMEI. Don't know if true but doesn't sound far fetched. Seems like only certain people have it while others do not.
Ive been trying for weeks with no luck, when i called att the rep told me that i had to wait for the notification from att to show up, going to settings and update software wont work at all. So i was told. I wish we could get some solid information about what happened to our update.

Yes, unfortunately or fortunately I had the update bugging me for 2 days, back in Nov. I had CWM recovery then, so the update failed, now of course it says that no updates are available. So I am not sure about the IMEI theory as I cannot get it anymore, as I went back to Stock recovery hoping I could do it.
When I was on the Samsung Moment they pushed an OTA update that was only for the first 1000 phones that downloaded it. They were using their customers as beta testers.

Sounds likely, esp with CIQ installed!
I got it about 2 days after getting my phone, then I had to flash back to stock with ODIN to 2.3.5, it now says no update aval. Not sure it's IMEI based...
Were there any noticeable changes anyhow?
If you want 2.3.6 and you can't get the 2.3.6 OTA update, why don't you flash the stock 2.3.6 zip in the Development section using CWM? (posted by silver03wrx).
When we called into Samsung last week about some browser questions (pinch reflow) we also asked about the update. We were informed it was pulled because of issues and to watch for further updates.

I received the update on day one...can't tell if there is any actual change in the device...other than the one-click riot methods NOT working. Which is really frustrating. Lesson learned: don't be quick to update.

Anyone else seeing this? I'm rooted so I can't run it yet but it looks pretty similar to the latest software version.
Hmmm. I'm using the latest trick, which is based on build 2.35.531.7.
Probably minor fix? Far out hopeful wish: It's the updated stock camera that's easier to switch between front and back cameras that the One X got. But most likely probably indubitubly not.

Just installed it on my wife's phone. I honestly don't see a difference. Still 4.04 and sense 4.1. Camera seems to be the same too.
Ugh, big fixes. So disappointing.

Any way to know what fixes? I wish they'd give us Sense 4.5 to play with while waiting til next year for JB. (My assumption. I never expected JB to roll out for the One X and S simultaneously.)
I am now installing. It stated overall system performance improvements and stability.
EDIT: DON'T FORGET TO USE VOODOO OTA ROOT KEEPER BEFORE DOING UPDATE!
EDIT 2:Congrats, your phone is now updated to version 2.35.531.10710rd
EDIT 3: Those looking for love for tethering when the screen goes off, guess what? Still no love, damn!

Root keeper worked for me.
Has anyone noticed after the ota that people can't hear you during a call? Seems to be an issue with mine. It did however get left outside last night and was super humid. Any way to check for water damage?
When I use voice to speech it works fine so shouldn't it be the same on call considering it is the same microphone?

After I download the update and select to install now, it reboots into twrp recovery and then I select the update file but when I try to flash it, it fails. I then reboot and as soon as it restarts it asks me to either install now or later. If I select Install now the previous steps occur again. Am I doing something wrong? Thanks

You have to be on the stock recovery, not a custom one.
Sent from my HTC VLE_U using Tapatalk 2
most likely the bug fixes are to make things run smoother like changes in boot where stuff sometimes do not come on such as the auto rotate.
yes odd static during call but smoother overall
A lot of people lost 4g connectivity when they updated to 4.04, such as myself, so I'm back to Leedroid 4.03. Hopefully this fixes it for those of us.
I updated my One S with the OTA. All seems good to me (I am on stock and haven't tampered with this phone yet).
Anyone has any idea if this OTA is updating the hboot version? If it is updating the hboot version, this might be for JB update. If not, ignore this comment.

If you have .7 installed you cannot install this update. They're the same thing it seems. And it's rolling out til the 30th. JB def not coming this year.
If anyone has some time that took the update and could provide a TWRP nandroid it would be much appreciated.
Good day,
Well, my wife has the Nexus 5 and her phone still hasn't got the 5.0 lollipop update by OTA. Which is wierd. I would do the manually image update on her phone. But she doesn't want to loose her game saves and all that crap. I am in Canada. Anyone else in Canada not get the lollipop update yet as well? And is there a work around. Probably a far shot of a question.
Thanks
Lol is everything stock?
my friend is having the same issue
i rooted my buddies nexus 5 and flashed the factory google image for 5.0, now that the patch has come out he wanted me to revert him back to stock
so i took him back to 4.4.4 where he was before the factory image.
he wasnt getting the update.
i read somewhere else that the bootloader has to be re-locked for ota's to work so i did that too. still no update.
Got my nexus today, hoping for lollipop update, and it says 4.4.4 is the latest one :/

Yup. Her phone is stock. Nothing done to it.
I got kind of the same problem. Got my OTA notification maybe 3 weeks ago. I didn't want to upgrade the phone just yet, had been hearing some battery issues and wanted to fint out if it was worth to upgrade.
Today I decided I would do the upgrade since the 5.0.1 has been moved out, I thought that 5.0.1 would take care of the first bugs. But when I try to upgrade it says I have the latest version. I'm on 4.4.4 stock, no root.
I did hide the notification for the updates right after I got the first notifications for it, but I have been checking back from time to time to see that the upgrade was in fact still availible on my phone. It was maybe a week ago, but not anymore.
Does anybody know if I'm supposed to do something to be able to upgrade now, or should I just wait?
Thanks
Should just be a waiting game.

Now again i m trying to get OTA update for 5.0 (no root) its not not showing me in update its stuck on 4.4.4. and its says that my software is up to date.

Problem is that if her bootloader wasn't already unlocked, the act of unlocking prompts the phone to erase all userdata. Which is why you should always unlock the bootloader right away with a phone before doing anything.
I've read on reddit, that maybe cause it's 5.0.1 out, we have to wait in line again for it to become available on our devices, the same reason is with the guy who dismissed his notification

Sorry yes it was to you. Because the updates are delivered in batches. If you ignore the update for so long, you go to the back of the queue until it's your turn again.

this still doesn't explain why my wife's Nexus 5 is still on 4.4.4 and hasn't receiving the lollipop udate as of yet. It's been out for a bit now. This is screwed up beyond beleive!!!

You could always just purchase one those backup apps like Titanium that does not require root and then save everything. This way you could do a manual side load.

It does explain it.
OTA system is kinda of a lottery - either your device is a winner, or it isn't.
Just freaking get the OTA update zip and sideload it. You won't need to unlock bootloader for that.

OTA Update Working now
Hey guys OTA update is working now...
Were you previously under kitkat or did you get the OTA update from 5.0 to 5.0.1?
EDIT: Nevermind (at least for me), tired of waiting, I finally decided to manually load the OTA by following the tutorial here:
http://www.talkandroid.com/guides/b...on-your-nexus-device-download-links-included/
The funny thing is that after my phone was manually updated to 5.0, I automatically received the OTA for 5.0.1
Right now I'm using 5.0.1
Kernel 3.4.0

Software D85020f

My phone won't let me update it OTA or through LG tools. Keeps saying this phone has been suspected of rooting. I tried factory reset but it gave me the same result. How can I update and get around this thing knowing I was rooted? I'm not even sure how it knew because I went to stock without adding any accounts or apps -_-
