A tech support rep from VZW just informed me they've halted the ICS OTA for Droid 4 because of software issues he didn't specify. Just thought I'd give everyone still waiting the heads up.

confirmed* via a post on xda, he had the same result as you
That's me, actually. Still treat this is as a rumor until others can verify.
the System Update option on my phone has been "Not available at this time" since Tuesday night, so it's disabled altogether for over 24 hours now.
Try switching to wifi, then hitting "update system." You still won't see an update available, but it might go from saying that the service is unavailable, to saying the system is up to date. If that's the case, then you likely have tweaked your settings to only download certain updates when connected to wifi for data and/or power conservation. This happened to me as well. I specified those settings when I first got the phone, then sort of forgot about them.
interesting, until Tuesday afternoon it was saying it's up to date and since Tuesday night it said service was unavailable. i'll try your suggestions, not that i'm expecting the updates now. thanks.
Its probably due to it bricking phones. Got mine Monday afternoon. Completely killed the battery that day...expectedly. Wouldnt charge for a LONG time. Finally did that evening. Got it back on and seemed to be working fine.
Tuesday I leave my house, phone is off charger from 9 til about 4. Phone died again. Tried to charge. Wouldnt take a charge for hours. Finally got to 15% and tried to turn phone on. It made the droid sound and then got stuck on the rotating red eye. Stayed there and is still there. Went to Vz that night and the tech couldnt do a thing with it. My replacement came in Wed morning.
Looked great while it was working. Figured it was too good to be true.
well if that was the case there would be more reported issues, there are always ones that brick with updates so its too soon to say that would be why with you being the only one to report this.
