Android not fetching latest OS update

I have a Nokia G42 5G with Android 13. A week ago, a notification popped up, asking me to download the latest update (and also that that update was a week behind). Since the size was 2.67 GB, I decided to close the notification at the time; I would install it later. A quick search afterwards revealed that it was an upgrade to Android 14 . When I went to download it later (from Settings → System → System update, then Check for update), it keeps showing “Your system is up to date”. This is how it has been since. Now, I know that that is not the case because - there was that notification, - someone I know uses this very device (model) and they have already upgraded (means, it has been released in our location/market), and - one could check from Nokia’s Website that that update has been released. **My question is: how can I get that update?** I have installed Google Play system updates and what not. I have also cleared the ‘System cache’ app (don’t know what this app does) from Settings → Memory. I have tried using both WiFi and 5G data while the device was charged to full. **What else can I do?** May be allow unrestricted data access to some app? May be clear some cache to force fetch that update? I won’t flash a custom ROM but I am willing to reboot to safe mode or connect to a computer to clear some hidden cache or run some code. Technically, it seems to be possible to postpone updates ; the system will fetch them later . **Is it possible to reset that waiting period instead of waiting it out?** (If that has been the case; my device is my own, not managed.) ---------- On a related note: I recently had a run-in while installing the 2024-02 Cumulative Update for Windows 11 Version 23H2 for x64-based Systems (KB5034765) update on Windows 11. It downloaded, started installing, computer restarted, it installed all the way to 100%, and then rolled back with a . This happened quite a few times. I tried all kinds of solutions from all around. At the end, it turned out that all I had to do was rename/remove the

folder . And it worked in a snap! So, I know that software work in mysterious ways!
