Official update gone missing! - Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Thanks a lot Man!
I tried this link and tried it many times and it didn't work.
Then I tried one thing. I kept my 3G off and then cleared the data. and then activated it and then hit system updates and got ICS update

Okay there is one more problem, I have downloaded the update and rebooted and it was stuck at same Google logo for an hour. Then I removed battery and restarted and it was missing.
So can anybody tell how to do manually?

This is all new to me and I'm sorry if this has been raised before, I did look.....but I installed a theme after I rooted and did everything that I learned but when the phone was reset and loaded up....I got a few force closes from voice activated dialing and Google search. It wouldn't let me get past it and I kept hitting force close... I couldn't get past it.....any ideas why?

Hi I had that same issue with one of the colored themes I think it was green could not get the phone to reboot into clockwork mod either. Solution was plugging the charger in and turning phone on after thee battery charging symbol came on and it rebooted into recovery automatically were I had to restore to a ealier image backup I had that was the only way I could get past the fc's.

Thanks, I actually may have fixed it by accident. I used odin and again and used the PIT this time and then went into 3e and went to the option to delete user data and when the phone rebooted i went thru the setup guide and skipped everything. I then went to the market and it had me go thru the google sign up guide and i signed into my account and then i went into the manage applications and saw that the market version was 2.3.6 so Im not sure if what i did worked or if it was just me.
Just FYI it auto updates to the latest version. Had the same thing happen to a new Infuse I picked up today for my wife.
Hers hadn't updated after 10 minutes so did the following (posted on a Google help forum I can't link to because I'm noob):
Delete the market's cache and data and force close it, reboot your phone. After reboot start the market wait a minute go back to home and then restart the market.
This "worked" for me, but waiting a little longer or rebooting may have been what actually fixed it.

I did delete the cache and data and i waited like an hour and it didn't update. Whatever i did before worked.
Thanks for your help.
try downloading an app, it should then say updates available in the notification bar, it may automatically update or you can go into "my apps" and see the updates. if that doesnt work i guess i can pull the apk and post it
I got it figured out, but before it did update some apps.
It eventually changes, mine stayed liek that for 3 days i think then just changed to the new one...
i kind of like the old one tho.

[Q] WTH? My stock Thunderbolt just updated istelf!

I'm noticing in other threads than OTA update has been pushed, but again - WTH? I noticed this morning my Thunderbolt was downloading the update. I hopped on the internet to check this site about what this update would contain. While logging on, I heard my Thunderbold do the short vibrate reboot sound - I looked over and it apparently had not only downloaded the update, but flashed it as well - completely wiping my settings/data in the process!
I had been holding off rooting for lack of time, but now there is no reason to wait. And I can't believe, if I'm not the only one this has happened to, that there won't be a lot of PISSED Thunderbolt owners out there...
This is common practice for OTAs to update automatically. That's why they PUSH the updates.

I rejected it error code 401 hopefully it will not update.
If I have to pull battery then I think I'm screwed holding off till bugs surface and they send out patches

I found mine updated this morning. But no settings or anything wiped, just the new gingerbread software, new verizon included software (or updated).
Have stock TB. Found OTA new update and downloaded it. Most of my settings were still there. Had old GB update and did a factory reset 2x trying to fix issues. New OTA fixed issues I was having.

I get that, but wiping the device should require the owner's approval.
An update on this: apparently, it has only wiped the device, as now it wants to do the update. Curious (and maddening) that it's asking permission to do the update but wiped the device without warning. Maybe the wiping is a prep step for the update? Still doesn't justify it.
I could even give Verizon and/or HTC the benefit of the doubt and say that wiping was some sort of bug, but it still should never have happened. I'm in the mood to root it now, so hopefully it will be a moot point...
Mine trys to update, but I just get the "!" with the small blue-android.
I just reboot it, and it says "update failed" and I go on my merry way.

Can't update Chrome after JB

I did the JB update then reset. It had a list of updates to do and I did them all BUT the Chrome update just gets an error and returns to the 'needs update' list.
Help? Anyone getting this?
Thanks!

Ive got the same problem
Usually when I get this problem, it's because
I've already got updates installed for a previous version of Android (ICS) that are getting in the way, or
the update (file) was (physically) pulled from the Play servers, but the notification is still there.
So,
Check to see if you can uninstall updates for Chrome from Settings --> Apps --> All, or
Try again in a couple of hours.
Having this same problem. I did what John recommended but no updates showed. Any other suggestions?
I ended up doing another factory reset actually. Did the Chrome update first. It worked.

Cannot Update My LG Google Nexus 5 To Any Update

I bought a Nexus 5 used online. I can't remember what version is came with, maybe 4.4.4. First thing I did with it was update it which put it to Adroid 5.1.1 LMY48B. When any update came out after that I would try to update it, but it would not work. I would download the update, which would then let me install it, but once it restarts to install it, it gives me the Adroid fella with an "Error" underneath. This has happened for every update and now even for Android 6.0.1. I have cleared the cache and wiped the phone entirely multiple times. It is not rooted or have any custom backup's or whatever. It is just unlocked.
I literally have tried everything and haven't a clue how to fix it. Is there any hope you guys could try and help me?
Have you tried flashing a stock Google ROM and then running the update? Note that you need to unlock the bootloader before you can flash a stock ROM.
Facing same issues here but my N5 is rooted and I've not installed any custom recovery...

I don't think Google updates will install on a rooted system.
Yeah tats right but my phone didn't boot up with the stock version either ...stuck in bootloop
