Galaxy Nexus 4.0.3 Build - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

Hi! Is there somewhere where I can get a 4.0.3 ROM which is unmodified (just compiled - not custom ROM) ?
Thanks

If you have a GSM version try Bugless Beast. That rom is pretty close to stock.

Its very doubtful you will find an untouched build as its not an official google stock version on the Galaxy Nexus so at the very least any versions on here will be rooted.

Mark, I think you won't find an untouched 4.0.3 build because I am reasonably certain Android build number "IML74K" with tag "android-4.0.3_r1" in Google's Android Open Source Project (AOSP) repository has problems. I think the vendor binaries provided by Google are wrong, and extracting them from my phone is worse. I'm not sure how people are building 4.0.3 and 4.0.4 ROMs that work, but this is something I hope to learn.

[Q] 4.0.3 on SGN

Hi community!
I got my GSM SGN last friday and i've been having one hell of a time playing with my new device. Of course, rooted, cwm, and some mods/themes/etc. I can't help to notice that some of the threads have screenshots of SGN with 4.0.3, but my device still runs on 4.0.2 . Am I doing something wrong or has the update not come to me specifically, yet, because i'm so special
4.0.3 hasn't been officially pushed to the SGN by Google/Samsung/carriers, but Google has finished and released 4.0.3 and published it to the AOSP (Android Open Source Project). Devs have made their own 4.0.3 releases using that

I had a brain fart. I realized I flashed a ROM that is 4.0.2 so DUH it's going to say 4.0.2 on the phone. Lulz, thank's for your help

No Update for Yakjuzs Build

I bought a galaxy nexus from newegg and checked the version to be Yakjuzs. It loads an Asian language by default when the phone is switched on for the first time
I still have the 4.0.1
Basebad Version - I9250XXKK1
Build Number - ITL41F.I9250ZSKKB
Has anybody with similar specifications received the 4.0.2 update?
I do the *#*#2432546#*#* several times a day but no luck!
I'm currently using the phone only on WiFi and without a SIM card.
same build, no update
I'm considering switching to yakju build
Still haven't rooted a Nexus phone?
You're doing it wrong.

Even yakju is still only on 4.0.2 where as other phones and tablets are on much newer builds namely Nexus S and Galaxy Tab..
I think google forgot about their flagship phone already lol.

I doubt it. The 4.0.3 update isn't large enough for a large scale deployment, but really...buying a Nexus phone and not rooting it is like buying a Ferrari but only going 20MPH..
odd, my yakjuzs nexus came with 4.0.2 and baseband version - I9250XXKK6 out of the box, meaning there is actually an upgrade out there i guess.
IMO 4.0.2 is not worth it, neither is waiting for the official 4.0.3 roll out - you're better off sparing yourself the wait unlocking/rooting then flashing a custom 4.0.3 rom. the difference is so huge that it's embarrassing, frankly speaking

Agreed. 4.0.3 is soo much better and smoother than 4.0.2 theres no point in waiting for an OTA upgrade
Whats bugging me is that the Nexus S ALREADY has an official stock 4.0.3 rom and the motorola xoom has an OFFICIAL IML77 Rom out right now.
Google should be putting out the latest builds to the nexus before anyone else gets it.

I believe you, but you will have to be on .2 to get official .3 OTA

custom roms based on the official OTA will be miles better anyway, so why bother?

The Nexus S OTA has been stopped, and the Xoom ICS OTA is a beta build you have to sign up for.
Google will push the 4.0.3 OTA when its ready. If you're ancy you can just root. But I understand if you dont want to.

Excuse me, but does anybody know what was the reason for stoping OTA for SNS? I flashed it manually same second I saw info on the interwebs and it runs pretty good. No big complains.
My gNexus is ("was", 'used to be') a yakjuzs ...
After reading about the lack of OTA I downloaded the update from the official google website and installed it 20 minutes or so ...
Works nice but I couldnĀ“t find any improvements ... people say that franco's 4.0.3 (#12) changes the device from water to wine ...
If you decide to update to 4.0.2 yakzu, just one advice: mine got stuck in a loading loop forever ... until I did a factory reset (from the fastboot mode).

[Q] franco kernel for 4.0.1/4.0.2

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.

Proper verbiage for roms built from recently released Jelly Bean binary code...

Hey all,
I read that a few days ago, Google released the official binary code for jelly bean for verizon phones.
What terms should I be looking for to make sure that the new rom I decide on will make use of (and be built from) the new, proper code for the CDMA binary code for Jelly Bean?
Thanks,
Matt!

When Jelly Bean code was released in AOSP originally they released proprietary binaries. The new binaries just bring those binaries, whatever changes they might have, up with the current build number of Jelly Bean source. The blobs they didn't have license to release (mostly affecting camera and GPS) still haven't been added and need to be extracted from a released Jelly Bean image.
So mostly versions of the same released proprietary blobs for us, that was what they announced.
Thanks, I guess I'm just waiting to see in official release from one of the well-known ROM producers....like those unicorn people, lol. It seems that everything is unofficial as of yet

Looking to install my first rom

So the current version of my I9250 Galaxy Nexus won't let me update to anything newer than 4.0.4 due to restrictions (checks for updates, and none are found). Can anyone recommend the best way to either install 4.2 or a rom that is even better? This is also my first time so ideally I hope there are some guides out there that have instructions for doing this all on Ubuntu or another linux based OS. Ideas?
Yakju - Takju ?
Maguro - Toro - Toroplus ?
Did you flash a custom recovery ?
Do you want a custom ROM or stock ?
Yeah a lot of questions, if you answer I can help you
