I have to pick up my parents from the airport tonight, so I can't be dicking around with my phone yet.

Gives me time to get my drivers straightened out on my laptop. Making me dislike 8.1

Lol welcome to the club. I got windows 8 when it first came out and kept telling myself its OK Microsoft knows best...then I starter feeling like a iDiot. Going back to 7 when I get some time, still the best OS of all time IMO.

btw anyone know when we can update OTA? i still dont have an option to do it when i check for updates.

i think i messed up my ota function when i went to root my phone :( hopefully i can find a guide to get a 100% stock n4 on 5.0 with no root or custom recovery and things work for me again.

I flashed the image. I think you misread Morrill's comments. You can't use the Google services framework to force the update, even by doing a factory reset. If you're not picked for the first batch, you have to wait for the second batch for another chance. It might take a couple weeks if you wait for the OTA.

that's why I flash
