Android 4.3 update, who's still waiting? - Nexus 4 General

I know we have a lot of threads discussing 4.3 already, but those seem to be for people who have successfully downloaded it and worked with it. I'm curious to see how many others are still waiting on the update. I live in Canada and so far I've seen no sign of it, my device tells me I'm still up to date with 4.2.2. I don't have 3G but I regularly connect to WiFi.
It's not a very big deal... the update doesn't seem to have much that I need, except maybe a slightly faster speed when doing things. But yeah, I'm curious. Share your locations if you're still waiting.
EDIT: I really wish there was a way to edit the titles for threads...
EDIT 2: Thank you for that.

Im in russia with a UK model still waiting. Im too busy at the moment to actually flash it so im going to be patient and wait for OTA.
It seems we are always last on the list here to get OTA or any updates.
Could any Russian users post and let me know if they have the update
Kind regards

In in South Carolina and one of my N4 has gotten the update but my other N4 hasn't gotten it yet. And neither has my N7 for some reason.

Canada here,
Still waiting on my N4 and N7.
N4 is on and off 3G doesn't seem to make a difference.
Last time around, the N7 got it within the week and N4 had to wait 2+ weeks until it arrived.

Austria; 212K N4 (stock everything) still nothing ...

I am on a custom rom and I am too lazy to go back to stock. Would wait for a week untill PA or CM have cooked their 4.3 builds.

UK, London - Tried the framework thing - Nothing....

Phone bought in UK, using Norwegian sim-card. Now travelling in Europe. Have checked (WIFI) in Germany, Poland, Lithuania, Latvia, and Estonia. Still nothing.

Croatia still didnt get it hopefully soon

No updates in Bangladesh either...

got tired of waiting after the OTA zip was published. downloaded the thing and sideloaded it. easy as pie and stopped me from checking the damn system update like an addict
check the excellent OTA thread, it should be easy enough for moderately literate geeks to flash it in a breeze

I am waiting, but not for the OTA that arrived on my phone a couple of days ago. I am waiting for all the bugs to get squashed and for the apps to get updated to accommodate 4.3.

Has the OTA been released officially?

Judging by what I'm seeing on some of the forums, it seems as though people are upgrading officially through the System Update option. However, mine continues to tell me that I'm up to date. Could someone advise me on the status of the OTA?

As of right now its still telling me I am up to date through system update as well.

I'm not sure it's been officially released yet, people just got info from here showing that apparently the official version and the leaked version are the same number. I can't verify this as I haven't updated or checked the versions myself, and some folks said the official release might have some other changes included so I'm still waiting. I don't want to get stuck and miss out on something.

From the Motorola web site my understanding is the only OTA update was for special test phones. The soak test hasn't started or you would have seen it posted on Droid-Life as they usually have it as soon as the email has been sent out.
I read there was a problem with the D2G Exchange encryption or something and maybe that is either using resources or the D3 has the same problem. Don't know but I'm guessing something is up or it would have been out by now.
I'm not updating my phone until the official version is out.
I appreciate the response everyone. I, as well, would like to wait for the official release rather than be hasty and install the leak.

Should be able to turn it on in settings. That is what I did. The setting did take a few times for it to stay active, but not had to reactivate the setting in a few weeks.

I tried the check for update option on my phone yesterday without joy but then connected via Kies at it was there.
It might be because I got my handset before official uk launch and was therefore imported from Europe?

as for OP, just checkecd kies again, nothing
Still nothing on wifi or kies, UK sucks, we give so much to many countries n always get everything last, so annoying

The way global rollouts work is that they often release the software to nations with very few of the devices and see if there is a significant spike in errors/bugs/repairs and then roll it out to nations with larger numbers of device users
them avoiding the uk is a blessing because: do you want to do a firmware update to a firmware that can brick your phone?
just wait until the bugs have been ironed out and then we will get it
id much rather wait an extra month and have a decent rom than flash a half-baked rom and then go through all the hassle of getting my device repaired!
and anyway, if your so desperate to go ics - grow a pair and flash it yourself
I have a German Note (imported from amazon.de) and got the ICS update through Kies as soon as it was released.
First impression - I really didn't know what all the fuss was about.
Second impression - What is it with all these wakelocks and battery drains?
Third impression - Maybe it's a little smoother when running properly, but not chalk and cheese in performance.
I'm sticking with ICS, because it's working for me and I can't be bothered to fiddle-ass about, but I wouldn't lose sleep over any delays, especially if it means getting a better product and less fracking about trying to get the damn thing to run smoothly.
Fair points there, just makes ya wonder why they are already talking about the next update and next phone when they haven't perfected this one yet, PS I would flash roms but I had a galaxy s 1 and it's so hit and miss finding a ROM that a suits the operator

I have an N4 and N7.. been monitoring both forums.. I don't think I've seen a single person say they got the OTA via OTA.

So I'm not sure it's really being pushed yet.

I have flashed the UK and it works great. Why wait? It is an official release, just for the UK. I think US get last on a lot because of all he laws/regulations and the number of users. Release it to the lower number to filter out the bugs. If all is well release to the rest.
Then donĀ“t buy Samsung. Over here in Mexico we dont get any more support than in USA and Canada and we are not whining about it.

One issue with the UK is that you still have to put on the hacked email app to be able to get Microsoft exchange notifications. I am hoping that they fix the manager and gear update to take care of this problem. Also I have notifications working now but they get stacked on top of each other in Exchange, when several come in close together.
That's my issue too. I don't want to use a broken exchange solution just to get the mail that should be working . I am NOT a big complainer but this too has really pushed my button expect more from Samsung on this particular for us early adopters

This is not a "problem/bug" its a security layer implemented by Samsung..
Exchange mail requires a pass lock to be active on Samsung's official app. You may use exchange mail as a every day feature, although people use it mainly for business purposes.
Reason why they force you to view it on your device, your device should be secured with keyguard so your identity can be verified before displaying the email.
Well if that was the case why did the first version work?

Not Whining...
Is just the principal..
You never leave US out...
We the largest consumers in Electronics..
What pisses me of is some of these countries with the update probably have 10 people that own the device.
Lol there's a hostile mob in this thread.
There's nothing wrong with pointing out that the US was left behind with these updates. Yes, I could break out Odin and manually update the Gear myself (and I did exactly that). However, it's ridiculous that the update is taking this long for US customers. I mean, is there a reason why this should be the case? It's going to be the exact same update that everyone else received.
I just don't get it. And frankly I don't understand why you guys are being so passive about it. If the firmware had not been made available by samsungupdates, then everyone would still be **** out of luck.
Running UK version myself but what the heck. Every time someone posts a thread about the US update all the stupid people come out and tell us to install the UK version. My gear IS NOT working flawlessly unless I happen to have a phone from the UK too. As many have pointed out, exchange does NOT work and its not that way because of security trying to protect us. Or is it just people in the US that needs this so called security feature.
Exchange in Europe works with UK ROM, exchange in US plus UK ROM/firmware =FAIL.
If you don't need exchange...good for you, but don't say UK firmware works flawlessly for US customers. It just works flawlessly for the features you happen to use.

Last rumor that circulated said the update for 4.4.2 was going to be around 01/24/14 +/- so if I was a betting man I'd say it is a minor update to fix the issues with the 12/18 update. That and the HTC site that they say provides "real time updates" on OTA development says sprint is still in the integration phase of the 4.4.2 update (certification through carriers and google would need to go pretty fast to make it out by wednesday). I wouldn't put too much trust in HTC elevate though, the entire site seems to be a "pat HTC on the back" community.

It's interesting to see they keep doing this type of small updates instead of go for the big deal. Unless they are addressing some serious problems(like security issues,) they should test the heck out of their one release and make it solid, instead of pushing one and the other just trying to fix the bugs in the fix they just released. it's a PR nightmare to me for these kind of activities.

I joined elevate by follow a link from here, and found it little use. I can't find any valuable information, but just a bunch of people discussing pointlessly. Anyways, HTC is a phone manufacturer, not like LG or SS with all the material, parts, a lot others. So I doubt they can come up with anything revolutionary. They have better software functions, that's true.

It could well be that in their testing these small Sprint features are breaking the OTA and that these features need to be updated just to enable the OTA.
