I read all I could find, no mention if out had been done successfully, no real post on it. Thanks for the snippy remark. If anyone here has done this and can comment on flashing the aosp ROM and relocking the bootloader.

I've just completed this. I too had that piece of garbage from Samsung. I've downloaded google official ITL41F files and flashed them through fastboot, manually by using these commands:
fastboot flash bootloader bootloader-maguro-primekj10.img
fastboot reboot-bootloader
fastboot flash radio radio-maguro-i9250xxkk1.img
fastboot reboot-bootloader
fastboot -w update image-yakju-itl41f.zip
The result ? The ROM is just about the same as before, nothing really changed. Anyway, I hope this helps.
LE: Oh, I forgot. The recovery is back to stock after this. Good to know.

I did the same thing as lambda30, worked fine.

Thank you so much. That was exactly what I was looking for. Flashed as yakju firmware after unlocking...then relocked all good. Now I'm on the Google wagon. Muuuch better.

i did the same as well.. but i used the itl41d image and then did the ota when it reboot... and then i flashed back the radio i had originally and all is good in the world.

Didn't mean to be snippy sorry, just don't understand the fuss. Someone up there called it a piece of garbage? It's AOSP ics, the only difference is who it came from.

It does make a difference as long as permissions were f**ked up and couldn't install Wallet. Other than that and the fact that there are a couple of dozen ring tones missing, probably no difference at all.

Sorry if I offended you in any way, I didn't meant for that. yakju and still no Wallet love ? Hmm. Did you get it like this, or installed from Google ICS official images ?

Oh you're fine we're on the same page now at least! I bought it from an importer in Chicago (where I live), and that's just how it was. No wallet stock, no wallet in the market. I was able to flash the wallet from the Themes and Apps forum, however.

The one thing I can say now that it totally different, is when the phone powers up it actually looks for an update, where before on the samsung variant it never did that in the beginning after it boots up. So that is prolly why the other build model hasn't gotten an update.

This thread will do it for you, quick and painless.

Aha. Dunno what's the problem (probably other build no. or such), but you could try the official Google ICS images if you want. It should work with those. Just do backup of current installation... I've found it the hard way on my Nexus S.

Likewise, but I don't think it's dependent on builds... maybe region?

I'm not sure, but it is def different cause I got an email from the Android Team that I never got before.

Same with me.

i'm on the "mysid" version(the one that is on the Verizon model) and i get the update message when i turn the phone on and i got the welcome to your galaxy nexus email from the android team a couple hours after i activated.
so i don't think that has anything to do with who updates the phone.

I have zero bloat on my phone. I got mine about 2 weeks ago it is a development version and has the development menu in settings. I unlocked my botloader and rooted using super boot v2 and installed the GSM clockwork, yes GSM clockwork works fully you just need to delete the recovery from boot.p file from system. If you dont every time you want to enter cwm you have to re install it with rom manager. I moved it to the cwm folder in SD card. Now cwm works flawlessly and I was able to make a full nandroid. I gave mike my boot image and system image he is working on building a rom now for LTE models since that's what I have. I will be testing the LTE version for him when he pms it to me.
If you have any other questions feel free to ask I don't mind.

I don't have a full ROM zip to flash (might check with some members who received the OTA recently), I have my backup that you can restore through CWM.

also, a few nights ago, when i opened this gray page, i noticed like tons of blackdots under the screen, mostly on the top but also around and centre too. are they dead pixels? will warrenty get me exchanged? i bought my phone with telus but lost the.receipt. how do i get warrenty? im in canada.

This one I'm not sure as I never really done this, perhaps should wait for other members who had experience on this to comment.
It's just my habit to make a backup on my new handset before doing anything else, mine came with yakjusz..I don't like additional keyboard which I don't use. Flashed it to yakju.
well, im assuming that stock chinese keyboard would look identical to stock english, which is the best keyboard there is IMO

Gift Nexus Preview OTA Dump?

Hi,
Someone here who's going to get one of the gifted Nexuses with the preview JB ROM on them and wants to dump the ROM for us?
Would be very nice and I think there are some people who'd love to flash it.

I came to XDA to post this question, if those phones came pre-loaded with JB 4.1.
They didn't come preloaded BUT Google said they will be prompted to upgrade to the Preview Jelly Bean update within minutes.
Okay, so it's almost pre loaded ;-)
Which is even better so we can just grab the zip and don't need to pack the ROM.

That's even better... as it allows someone to just grab the OTA (preview) upgrade from the device!
will this only be for people who like to poke around with new stuff? or will it possibly be stable enough to use every day?
I'm on a Verizon Nexus and want JB now!
So any news on a dump? I came here to ask this exact question after I realized all the Gift Gnex devices were getting Jelly Bean :O

GNEX Jelly VZW/CDMA
Considering this leak is more than likely from a phone intended for a GSM carrier like TMobile or ATT, is it safe to say my VZW/CDMA GNEX will not be flashable, even with toying around with the radio?

Uh.. I think there's a way, but that sounds complicated, and a difficult find for sure. Perhaps just look for a stock 4.0.4 verizon rom + radios + recovery and then relock bootloader via fastboot. Because there is no way you're locking your bootloader without fastboot... so you need to use it anyway, so just use the original method I linked.

But then you won't be stock... you'll be on a stock ROM but still custom recovery etc.
Just use the method Efrant posted and you'll be 100% stock. Its extremely easy, and you can be sure that nothing will go wrong because you'll be doing it manually yourself. Stop asking people to do things for you and just make it happen.

I'm sorry but I don't think anyone should be doing any flashing or tinkering without being able to understand fastboot/adb basics. That may be what he wants, but the Droid-Life guide is what's best for him

There is no OTA for 4.2 for any CDMA Nexus. You can flash a stock 4.2 ROM either in the Development section or on the rootz site.

"If at all". Really? We already got JB 4.1 first before even Verizon's own Droid line up. Sure, we wait a bit longer for an official OTA, but we're still one of the first to get it.

I only mention it because the fire sale they had on the GN's really makes it seem like VZW is trying to get rid of their stock and move on. I admit that was pretty overly negative thinking, but I don't have much faith in big corporations.
Thanks for the responses. Any recommendations for a pure stock 4.2? I believe I saw an AOSP 4.2 in the development forum, but I figured it was tweaked around.

MMuzzy's and mwalt2's ROMs are both apparently working quite nicely. I'm on mwalt's myself and have had no problems. Everything right now is basically stock because there's just not been enough time to monkey with things.
I recommend Jake's JellyBelly rom. It's on RootzWiki, though.

I'm running MMuzzy's ROM and there's nothing tweaked about it. Works smooth.

Wonderful, thank you everyone. I'll look into all of those.
