My daughter has owned one since Aug. Her phone has never received any OTA updates. It is still running ICS. I have finally convinced her to let me root it, but she doesn't want any custom ROMs. Where can I find the latest OTA that would work?

"I have finally convinced her to let me root it..."
Clever girl, feels the risk that daddy may brick her phone. :D
I think XDA Developers would be better place to ask such question, I'm sure there you will find more information and help related with rooting and other similar things. :)

Ron if you just Google Verizon OTA 4.1.1 or you can look on YouTube there are a tons of videos that show how to force the update to her phone. I hope this helps you and your daughter out.

That's not what he meant. She is OK with root but she wants a completely STOCK ROM and not a custom one. I agree though with looking at XDA to get some knowledge before bricking a phone.

"That's not what he meant. She is OK with root but she wants a completely STOCK ROM and not a custom one."
I understand that NOW she is not agains a root, but as I understood, according to this part of sentence she WAS against a root before she WAS CONVINCED:
"I have finally convinced her to let me root it..."
And only then she talks about her conditions:
"...but she doesn't want any custom ROMs."

T-Mobile... is total trash....no matter what they do they can't stop the bleeding out their a$$

T-Mobile is not trash - Sprint is. Satisfied customer averaging 20+Mbps downloads and paying $120 for unlimited EVERTHING for two phones. :')

Same here on Verizon and Sprint, except the LTE speeds on both are more like 30mbps. Paying more than that for Verizon and my employer pays for my Sprint phone. I wouldn't call Sprint trash, they went through what AT&T went through when the iPhone launched and they are fixing it just as AT&T did.
As far as TMO goes, their service is fast and cheap but only if you are in a metro area, just on the fringe of a city and you're on Edge, literally.

I'll believe it when I see it. Though this is a step forward.

Verizon I doubt anyone will buy a Nexus branded device from you again after this.

Thanks for all of the comments but, shouldn't I just take her phone back to verizon? Obviously there is something wrong with the phone.
