Anyone not received the Lollipop OTA update yet?

Our 2012 N7 WiFi has not gotten Lollipop. I think Google is still squashing bugs before resuming the rollout. But really just speculation on my part.

Our 2013 N7 WiFi got the OTA 5.0.1 update and is working perfectly. Our N4 and N5 both got 5.0 OTA and both are running fine.
 
I just got mine working after a few months of being down. I tried to force update it but it couldn't find any. Still running 4.4 I think.
 
Is it 3G GSM? Seems that should just need some extra radio testing and get released. Lollipop runs great on the 2012 N7. I'd find it hard to believe that a (non-VZW branded) Nexus would be left behind.
 
My son's 2012 got it on day 1 or 2, I can't remember. I just got it on my 2013 a few days ago. There are a lot of Nexus devices Google is supporting right now, N4, N5, N6, N7 2012, N7 2013, N10, N8, N3.141596..., NR2D2, etc. and all the variants of each. That's a lot of hope.:p
 
I'm also waiting for it on my 2012 (Wifi). I didn't see any threads with this title so I was wondering if I was in the minority...guess not :)
 
2012 wifi in the UK here - not had it yet. My son hasn't on his either, but my daughter-in-law-to-be had it about 2 weeks ago. It f*****d it up so not worried about mine at the moment :)
 
Guys does that old trick of clearing data in the Google Services Framework app then rebooting still work when trying to get an ota update?

I think that changed somehow - I could be wrong. Edit to add I recall reading somewhere that its not that easy anymore. I used the NRT last night & had no problems.

Someone at Google confirmed on their forums this doesn't work. Even device has an equal chance of getting an update. It's a lottery, pure and simple.

Once your device has been refused at the server, your device is excluded from being considered for the update until the next batch of update places is released until the maximum pushout rate is reached by Google.

Iirc starts at 1% of devices, then 5,10,20,50,80, then 100% over a period of 6 weeks as they monitor their own forums for people posting issues.
 
I got 5.0 on day-1, which basically trashed my wifi-only N7… even after full FDR. I check every day, but still waiting for 5.0.2.
