New to Modding phones. I just rooted my lte nexus and flashed android revolution rom. All went well thanks to developers directions. But I have a question that my searches did not answer fully. I see most roms are 4.0.3. Since I was on 4.0.2 when I rooted I flashed a 4.0.2 rom. Do I flash a 4.0.3 radio first before trying a 4.0.3 rom? Is this dangerous since I am a noob? Or can I just install a 4.0.3 rom?
I will hit my thanks button alot!
Just install the rom. Radios are included unless noted other wise.
Sent from a GUMMYNEXED beast!
Fyi, the 4.0.2 & 4.0.3 radios are compatible

Hey guys, I have a galaxy nexus and I was wondering if there was a franco kernel for 4.0.1/4.0.2. I'd like to keep the stock ROM and just get that kernel. I only see the 4.0.3 one..but I want to stay on Stock, I don't like custom ROMs.
I found many franco kernels but i'm not sure which one to use.
On a separate note, I'm currently on 4.0.1 and waiting for 4.0.2. If i root using the GNtoolkit, does it automatically upadte me to 4.0.2? (I did not want to make a separate thread for for this question)
Thanks!!
Don't think so
I guess you're right! now I have to find a good 4.0.3 ROM for the kernel
Personally I use aokp, definitely happy with it.

Download the GN Official Update Checker from the market and run it. If your phone is "yakju" then you will get 4.0.2 soon, but since you are still waiting for it I'm guessing you aren't yakju. You can use the Toolkit to flash yakju with the stock factory image from Google. Rooting is separate.
Hey all, I'm new Samsung Galaxy Nexus User so I need little bit help, hope someone can help me!
I I have bought Samsung Galaxy Nexus Android 4.0.1 ICS and I updated it to 4.0.2 in about phone section in settings! and it does not find newer update for it!
Is there any official update.zip for 4.0.2 to update it to 4.0.3?
I bought this phone from Finland and it's not Verizon 4G LTE phone!
If I update it to 4.0.3 then can I keep my apps and all other? (dalvik vm must cleaned..?)
and Does 4.0.3 have Estonian language?
(I don't want to brick that phone so that's why I am asking help..
+ why Gameloft games is not working on Galaxy Nexus? /:
and what is the best and most stable + newest kernel for Galaxy Nexus?
Thanks if someone can help me!
The latest OTA from Google on the GSM Nexus is 4.0.2, hope that helps!
If you want 4.0.3, you'll have to go the custom rom route.

Yes, it is a known fact that rooting requires you to "oem unlock" you phone... which clears all the data on the phone, including the internal storage... hope you read that before proceeding...
4.0.3 was never published as an official update...
Not everyone got/gets the 4.0.4 OTA update...
And if you have the CDMA Galaxy Nexus... all updates will come from Google by they will be co-branded by Verizon (i.e., they will have Verizon proprietary files needed for CDMA/LTE)... so you cannot get an "official" ICS update without Verizon involved...
Im new to android and rooting.
I live in Australia so we do have ICS 4.0.3 yet so does that mean i cant get a new rom thats 4.0.3 or will it not matter?
Thanks.
If you're unlocked/rooted you can flash a 4.0.3 ROM.
Does anyone have a list of changes? Or even an unofficial list? So far there have been four 4.0.4 updates and it's getting a little confusing. Ignoring the first VZW leak (IMM30) there have been IMM76B, the first official 4.0.4, then IMM76I released only to GSM owners. I remember reading that the AOKP team said this was strictly a kernel update. Leankernel and faux kernel both integrated these changes.
Now there's the Verizon update that comes with a brand new build number, IMM76K. So now that everyone who wants to have had a chance to flash it, I ask you. What's different? Is the kernel version different? Any bug fixes? Or did they just feel like updating the build number for the hell of it because it's Verizon? lol
Right now I'm running AOKP Milestone 5 with leankernel 3.4.0 so I should have everything from IMM76I (if there's anything in there that even makes a difference for us LTE users). Is there anything in IMM76K that would be worth loosing all the AOKP stuff?

you're already on 4.0.4, VZW 4.0.4 is just the same GSM 4.0.4 its just been approved for the VZW network.
the important thing you need to get out of it is to flash its radios and bootloader [optional]
but at least the radios.
Oh yea forgot to mention the radios. I already flashed those on top of AOKP. I was previously running the radios from the last 4.0.4 leak and the bootloader is the same (PRIMELA03). I first flashed the factory 4.0.2 radios and bootloader just to be safe. Then I flashed the new radio and bootloader zip in clockwork mod.
I was asking if there's any changes in the actual ROM, aside from the radios and bootloader.
Hi guys,
I have had my GNex on 4.1.1 stock and rooted for a while now. I never bothered updating to 4.1.2 didnt seem much different than 4.1.1.
I like stock, it seems faster to me with franco kernel. So now that 4.2 is out I want to update. Can soemone please direct me to the link for a stock 4.2 rom that I can install with CWM? odexed is prefered (speed). I looked in the development section, but they are all "branded" roms. Im looking for plain google.
