4.0.3 upgrade questions. - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

I'm on the LTE version of the nexus, running 4.0.2 rooted and unlocked. Will I still receive the update or do I have to flash it?? If I have to flash it where can I download it at?? I want to use a custom kernel but it won't work with my version...confused.

If you download it OTA then you will lose root. To retain root and custom kernals you will need to manually flash a rooted version by downloading it and using CWM.

You'll need to sit tight and wait for this. Or just flash a custom rom developed from 4.0.3.

I know that, I was telling the original poster that there was no 4.0.3 upgrade available yet.

There are 4.0.3 AOSP builds, grab one!

according some posts, you will not receive future OTA update if you have custom rom installed, even AOSP build.

I just want a stock deodexed 4.0.3 rom. No changes no mods. Does that exist?

Stock with mods?

Am pretty new to flashing roms and mods. I've did the streak, captivate, s2 lte, and now just got the nexus.
Was wondering if I can just keep it stock and grab pieces of mods and flash em?
Thanks for any answers

Yes, you can use stock ROM, but you will have to get root access and unlock bootloader anyway. Also probably you will want to flash custom recovery which is very helpfull in cases when flashing some mods goes wrong.

So I can keep stock and just get mods then.... hard to choose with all the roms out there. Thanks for the response. Might just try a rom though cause this nexus starts to slow after after awhile

Mods can not be used on stock odexed ROM, you'll have to flash a Stock deodexed ROM, which isn't 100% factory stock. The ROM will be untouched other than deodexing the system files.
To install an OTA update, you must present the stock recovery on the galaxy

Yes, my bad. On SGS2 we had tons of mods/themes for stock-odexed ROMS. Thanks for correcting me.

There are other ways, but if he doesn't have CWM, just have him pull the update through the update manager in Android, then get Wugfresh's NexusToolkit and just have it unlock + root/install CWM and then just fwipe and either clean flash the stock JB ROM from Google or find yourself another ROM like ParanoidAndroid or AndroidHD Revolution. Like I said, there are other ways/combinations to do this, but this is the most automatic way to do it(read: lazy man way) and what I think is the easiest way as it requires very little user interaction with the process.

Official jellybean update

I have a rooted sprint nexus 4G lte that I want to just get the official ota 4.1 update. When I go into settings and check for update it says there is none. I'm running the "are you jellin" ROM... How do I get the official update?

By going back to stock?

I bet you can find stock ROM for Sprint floating around internet
Have to return to stock and wait for the OTA. You can't accept an OTA when you're on a custom ROM.

Fk23 vs Gb27

Is there any differences? Is it worth the time to go official jelly bean update? Or should I just stay on leaked fk23 jb?

Have you updated from fk23 to gb27? I'm still using fk23 "rooted", and was thinking of updating it to gb27... I have the Samsung simple upgrade tool, because I can't use kies to update it... If you updated using the same method, did everything work out ok?... I'm not sure if this will harm my phone...

Why not just flash the stock rooted gb27 from Garwynn and sxtp developers?

Back then when my device was running ICS, I updated my device to jelly bean 4.1.2 using the Samsung simple upgrade tool. It worked perfectly. Had no issues during the process. Afterwards, you simply root your device if you want, and you are good to go. Definitely recommend updating to the latest version GB27.

CWM flashable stock ROM?

Hi everyone, I've been looking for a stock ROM that I can flash through clockwork mod, I dont have a backup anymore due to my house burning down about 1 week and a half ago. It would really help if someone could link me to a rooted rom that has the latest build for sprint along with the latest kernel, or to let me know if I can even return back to stock without losing root and using a PC
Thanks guys

Thanks! Will do
But isn't that a custom ROM? I was looking for a just plain stock ROM, thats flashable through cwm

That is a stock rooted ROM with no extras. That is the latest android version.it is just like the ota update that would come from sprint. If you don't want to be rooted anymore than you Odin back to stock

Thanks dude, freakb18c1 sent me a link to a complete stock rooted ROM on sextape's site, but it was also uploaded here in xda as well. Here's the link for future reference for anyone else that's looking as well
