I had it served OTA perhaps a couple of months ago, its been that long I dont recall exactly when but my official firmware is 4.1.1 on the Nexus S.
I believe OP was referring to the ns4g ota update that was rumored to be out today

Nope! It's 1900 EST and nothing. Let us know if you have any luck!
Man so no one has gotten this update yet? I'm still waiting as well.

I've been checking for system updates constantly. Nothing drives me more insane than seeing that "Your system is up to date" when I check. I have yelled at my phone multiple times "NO, IT'S NOT!"

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news but...you can't manually check for an update on this one. Sprint said that it will be pushed to your device when it's your turn. Which means...expect it some time later this week if you haven't gotten it already.

I wish someone would post the update.zip for jellybean. That way everyone can update manually. Waiting sucks.

That's what we're waiting for. Without a doubt, there are people out there that have JB for their NS4Gs, but they wouldn't have any clue how to upload a zip, or wouldn't care for that matter. For them it's just a routine update, to iron out a bug or two. How many end users do you think even know what project butter is??? Probably just us.
Just make sure that if you get that update, to take your Logcat so someone on here can get the file from the URL.

I dunno man.... I think most people that still rock a Nexus S is this community. I only know one other person who has a Nexus S... And he's a very techie kinda guy. Most everyone else upgraded a while ago... And they're still jealous of my old phone with its speed on jb.

Guys you can give it a break for today. 12 am start checking. Its going to be 4 days gnex 4 days ns4g and that's till the 13th, an 8 day period. That's why gnex users got the links out so fast. So get ready for Monday. Enjoy some football in the meantime.

As much as you could sell iPhones / Galaxies on craigslist for I'm surprised this doesn't happen more often to people
It's basically like if you're in public showing off that you have $400 - 500 on you that is easily taken.

If you have the right software law enforcement can track down the phone. I would assume that people who steal phones at gunpoint aren't very tech savvy.

Sadly, Samsungdive was my only option. The phone has probably been sold and factory resetted already but i'll be sure to install some tracking apps next time. Experience comes at a price!.
When I saw the the thread name I thought to myself, this is definetly a South African as this happens far too often down here with some people losing their lives over a damn phone.
Shocked to find out it happened on the northern tip of Africa, Egypt .So sorry to hear that mate, glad they only took the phone and not your life. Where were you when it happened?
The GS4 is worth it, definetly, got my GS4 as my GS3 broke, used my GS2 for 2-3wks and got GS4 on launch day, and I've been happy ever since, it's a lovely phone, more refined than GS3.

Get one that you can install as a system app so that when it is factory reset it doesn't go away unless the buyer knows about rooting.

I was thinking to skip the s4 this year and replace them both with s5...but i sorted out with my insurance and on monday i go to get a s4

Part of me hopes it is the HTC One...but then I know Verizon will screw it up from the onset, then constantly lock it down so no one can get s-off and there will be very little good development. You know all the things that kept me from the DNA.

OH BOY do I KNOW!
I sold my DNA for the SG3!
I honestly don't even know if I'd get the HTC One at this point, I know a new one will come out like a month later. lol
honestly I don't even miss HTC anymore, I really did at first.
don't have to worry about S-OFF,
you can flash radios, no worries, way too much crap can go wrong on HTC and they lock it down way too hard. I hate buying a phone, and having to wait 2-3 months before I can delete all the CRAP VZW put on the phone causing me bad battery life

Hi i was just wondering if anyone knows how to get the nexus 5 fully working with verizon network. Thinking about ordering one tonight. Thanks in advance.
Seriously?
There are several threads on this topic already. A mod is not going to like this.
Answer, No.
Bro search before posting. There's already a thread on this. And so far it's cr*p. I bought an N5 to use it on Verizon. I'm gonna a try a couple tricks(don't ask please) and if it doesn't work then I'm off to Tmo or sell it for the Moto X.

Oooh yah I felt really dumb about that to be honest. :/
I got frustrated with my Gnex for a sec and I'm like screw this I'm gonna save others from defects from the Nexus 5 and then made the thread without any thought. But the other defect thread isn't very organized(at least at glance). The OP isn't updated with all the defects. U literally have to search through 50+ pages of post.

Dude that really sucks you can't get decent signal on sprint in your area. Sooner or later vzw and at&t are going to realize that their bs is driving their customers away in droves. It really has a special way of pissing me off knowing I dropped all this money on these phones and I can't even do what I want with them. It's almost like going to a furniture store and buying a recliner and then that store owner dictating certain times I'm allowed to sit in that recliner, what times I'm allowed to put the foot rest up, what I'm allowed to do while sitting in it, and then being forced to sit in it with the store owner at the same time, and then being forced to wait a year to be able to buy a new slipcover for it.
That's just my example of comparing to vzw and their locked bootloaders, insane bloatware, ridiculously long-delayed updates and ridiculous push notifications, (vvm anyone?).
I really hope you get the dev edition if you can't switch and then I hope you torture the ever living hell out of vzw with it!
Best of luck to you my friend!
