Get 4.3 w/o Root

[Mostly Harmless]

I had to do this process twice but it worked for me:

Force the 4.3 OTA - Android Forums at AndroidCentral.com


If it doesn't work the first time, keep doing it.

why? it's going out anyway. I could understand if it wasn't launching for a week or so and you just NEEDED to have it...

Because it's only 6 steps away.

mine was 1 step. I woke up this morning and voila.

to each their own, I suppose, if you just can't wait and must have it.

Doesn't work.

The better way is to simply use ADB side load to push the update.

Don't have to wait for it, don't lose data, don't need root, don't have to repeatedly wipe framework hoping for it to work

I didn't lose data or needed to root. I had a bone stock N7, tired it twice and was on 4.3.
