Mine worked using the method you provided in the UK model TA-1150, but to those who do install it, mine did not restart twice like the phone said but it did take around ten minutes to boot

Did you use Wi-Fi for the update or mobile data?

You must use WiFi or alternatively use another phone's (mobile hotspot) to do it. It can ever work on mobile data, the moment you put SIM card in the phone, it will detective that you're not in India.

I so much love the new added features of the Android 10 for Nokia 4.2. They're really amazing.

Abubakar Babatunde

Already in anticipation for Android 11.

Hi @HMDLaura,

I really like this new approach to inform people which countries are still pending approval for the updates, it definitely helps people (who read it!) understand why they haven't got the update yet.

Cheers 🙂

Hi @HMDLaura

Thanks. I really appreciate your effort.

Rorro

So I understand that Chile will continue pending with the release of the update?

@HMDLaura We need a community in Spanish for Latin America. Thank you.

In the support chat, Nokia always excuses itself when the operators delay the updates. I don't believe them anymore.

That's because at this point it's the operator's job to approve the build after Nokia releases it. They can't force the operator.

Woansdei

still nothing (UK, Virgin).

update:

removed sim and it started downloading instantly.

Lordbeny

Still nothing. Poland (Orange). My mom phone.

It was supposed to be till 26.04 and its 28.04.

Nokia isnt the fastest update provider, right now its the slowest one.

I have it since 2 months at my Samsung S9+ so stop lying about being the fastest..

madbilly

Hi @Woansdei,

Glad to to hear you found a way to trigger the update. I've used a dead SIM from a previous contract in the past and it has worked well.

@Lordbeny and others - if you're getting frustrated waiting then try swapping SIMs with others in your house, even if they're on the same network, because you never know what might trigger the update.

Background info, the distribution of the updates is actually handled by Google and they often don't allow all phones which are compatible to get the update at the same time, they spread the release over a few weeks in order to reduce load on their servers... because they don't want to spend money.

It's easy to blame HMD, it's easy to blame the operators and regulators when you know about their role in this too, but remember that we also need to blame Google 😉

Cheers 🙂

Lordbeny

29.04 still nothing Poland Orange. Tried removing the sim card but didnt help sadly.

ropcku

Still nothing in Bulgaria. After 5 days passed by the deadline I'm still waiting and believe someone is blaming me. It is very easy to promise regular updates as it is very easy to switch the brand when you are not glad too. I don't believe anymore that the operator is approving it or Google denied it. It's an issue of Nokia - 2 weeks ago I received Android 10 on Samsung device. So I'm gonna change the brand even to some that ihad difficult to pronounce name but with regular updates. I have been using Nokia since 2004. Sorry to say but this is not my Nokia. Wish you all the best.

user1533140581793

Same in Romania, without updating to andr 10

Lordbeny

Yup, i wont buy Nokia again. Its not what i expected when i bought android one device. It should get a10 max 1 month after google pixels, now i got a10 on 2xsamsungs and nokia is still waiting. I was hoping for a Nokia back to glory days but i wont buy it again and 100% i wont buy flagship from it for myself. This 4.2 for my mother was last one.

Anyway, someone does the job wrong. And there is a breach of Nokia's star marketing promise.
