Hii everyone,
I had a couple of questions with regards to OTA google updates for android. For one thing, is I updated my Galaxy nexus GSM phone manually using MULTIPLE sources with hopes of the OTA update and I keep refreshing the update and it says no updates available. So now I decided to do it manually again, and I keep reading about having to put everything back to normal in-order for the update to work.
Can someone please enlighten me on how I can turn back the clock and put the stock radio and bootloader, so I can manually update to 4.0.4. Also how I can save my current phone setting, as far as widgets, contacts and ringtones are concerned, so I can have them back when I update.
Or should I just not bother with anything and that the OTA will eventually arrive?
The ota leak 4.0.4 is for the LTE version (Verizon only) not for the GSM

Omg please read before you brick your phone. The leaked 4.0.4 OTA is for the CDMA version and cannot be applied to the GSM model!

THANKS GUYS!!!
But look in the Dev section, there is a ROM from MoDaCo... it is a built from the 4.0.4 leak... but for GSM nexus works great...

Though it doesn't include all of 4.0.4, just the parts that are applicable to both machines. If you're on GSM I think its one of the only ways to go right now.

I still cant get the OTA update...
Ok, can someone explain to me what needs to be done for me to get the OTA update? So all i have to do is, go to setting, system update and download 4.04. I have GSM galaxy nexus, running 4.02, kernel 3.0.8 and built number ICL53F.
Thank you.

Hey,
The great Videotron is still running on 4.0.1 and im pretty anxious to get 4.0.4, wondering if anyone has gotten the update yet.

Its not dependent on your carrier, its dependent on the build of yakju your phone has on it. You're better off finding that out and associating that build with the discussion.
Baseband version:
I9250UGKL1
Build number:
ITl41F.19250UGKL1
Sorry, new to all this android stuff. But not getting major software updates really enervates me.

Don't see anything about yakju.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk
Videotron is a Canadian carrier, so that would presumably be yakjuux. No other update other than yakju appears to be live yet.
Canadian yakjuux is now at 4.0.4 actually, same as Yakju.
I'm running a GNex on Rogers.
Keep checking. Check threads for an OTA link or something.

Hey dice62,
Could you elaborate on what an ota link is? Like I said I'm new to this.

Did you actually get an OTA update or did you update manually from that thread? Only one person, OP of that thread, has actually reported getting an OTA for yakjuux. Otherwise it appears to be a leak or accidental release. The version and kernel are older than yakju, and OP even said he got the notification a week before Google even announced 4.0.4.
The url is there, I just view it as more of a curiosity than 'live'.
Edit:
He's talking about this thread:

How do you know whether you're running jakju or jakjuux?
Also, what are advantages of rooting a phone if it voids your warranty? How easy is it to do? Can you unroot?
Definitely don't expect someone to make a writeup about it, but a link to a "how to" and faq would be awesome.

Yakju*
use this app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.cbruegg.officialupdate
If "Google" then you're yakju. If "Samsung" then you're some yakjuxx variant.

You don't have to root to flash yakju. just unlock the bootloader and flash images. It doesn't void your warranty. If you do choose to root, yes you can unroot and always restore back to stock.

Reading through the forums before asking would be a good start. There are so many helpful topics on the device and how to unlock/root/upgrade the OS. If a n00b like me could figure out how to get from 4.0.1 yakjuux to 4.1.1 from reading on XDA then anyone can. Good luck.

well what i am confused about that there is soooo many roms and radios to choose from and its a little overwhelming because i had not had this many choices since i had a Samsung Epic, and since then i came from phones that pretty much had 1 or 2 roms the stratosphere and droid 4. and i kinda forgot about all the flashing and stuff. does this phone use odin to do it's flashing? i tried google and it says the verizon copy of this phone has a locked bootloader but there is a way to unlock it.
i just want a rom that has a clean,Fast,Jellybean,with root and no bloatware and good radio. something that i can edit the boot animations easy.
i was looking at the Vicious Toro rom and that looks like the best for me, i was also looking at that Gnex toolkit v7.4 is that what i use to unlock the bootloader and flash roms?

Use bigxies it's just aosp jb but rooted and deodexed. Also leave the toolkits to the noobs, better to do it manually - fastboot oem unlock, etc.

Can't flash takju or yakju (which are for the GSM Nexus) on a CDMA Nexus. And there is no official JB update for the CDMA Nexus yet, so he'll need a custom ROM if he doesn't want to wait.

yea i was a little confused on that part because i was thinking this was the toro and those were the GSM devices. i just wanna know what is the easy way to go from Stock 4.04 to the Vicious JB rom with root and unlocked bootloader.
i guess what is getting to me is that there is just so much stuff other there and so many ways to root and flash stuff and i was soo hooked with Odin and then i had to go to the motorola Side of things and did not enjoy that at all. but it has been way more then a year since i last flashed roms and stuff like that
also i noticed there is tons of kernels to use as well with the vicious rom.the faux one looks the best as it has a OC with it

it seems XDA should of gave CDMA and GSM devices there own General forum lol i could of been flashing GSM stuff for all i know
but i think i got everything down for when my phone comes tomorrow. been studying the toolkit and reading about how to flash roms through CWM app and kernels
should i just leave the radio alone or is there a better copy?
You'll find this phone easy to root and flash Roms on. Not easy to brick. Try all the roms . That's the great thing about the nexus, so much to choose from.

I just bought a galaxy nexus from a guy on craigslist. He had prior to me getting it rooted the phone and installed cm9-20120409-unofficial-toro.
I am trying to upgrade to jellybean and I need my build number however it is showing on the about phone screen as IMM76D, however that is a GSM model number and this a verizon phone. Therefore I think it is just because the rom was created on that build phone. He did not create a stock rom backup before installing the rom therefore I had no way to revert back to stock atm.
Is that a correct assumption?
Is there another way to find out my build?
If not do you have any advice on what my next step in upgrading to jellybean would be?
It doesn't matter what build it currently is. If you want a JB ROM, grab one in the Dev section and flash it.

yes it is, but i was referring to the radio that comes with it and the 4.0.4 in the dev thread was the koodo base no? shouldn't this be the tmobile one? they're not all the same. but ehh.... tmobile base usually sucks anyways.
Yes you are right the baseband is new as well and it is UVLH1 the kernel version is 3.0.8 I guess I will give this a try for a week completly stock then back to good old AOKP. I just like trying the stock stuff. I gotta say I was very impresed with the first version of ICS that we got. I didnt even root it or anything till AOKP was official for the t989. I got super good battery life and everything was stable so lets see if this update holds up. Good job samsung.
Blech. Kies fail.

I found this firmware at sammobile.
Please find it by the link below.

I am not sure if I posted at the right place.
Just tell me if I posted wrong and I will remove it.
Enjoy...
I already got the uvlh1 system folder with the apps, libs, build prop, and etc and also the .tar. I took the radio and made a flashable zip of it its in the dev section. I tryed to upload it on dropbox but it said the file is too large. Which is the best file sharing site so i can upload the large files so i can post it here ? But i guess the devs already has it.

There's a guide here:

Its not rooting or modding. What you are doing is returning it to stock condition. My preference is to use Linux as no drivers are required - you can simply download one file from the developer page, extract and flash.
when will yakjuxw receive 4.2 update officially?

Your guess is as good as everyone else's on that. It's Samsung who pushes out the updates for the regional yakju variants and they don't announce when.

Thats exactly what I've done! Google for yakjuxv to yakju there are several ways...
DL the nexus root toolkit there is even a tutorial inside the program for how installing the right drivers. For me the third manual way was the only one working.I actually changed the yakjuxv to takju and (4.1.1 to 4.1.2) and then got the 4.2 update OTA.

And what did you use for upgrading only to 4.1.2 takju? i think this method is best, since you get 4.2 OTA meaning you aint using a fake version for the galaxy nexus
