[Q] ROM help! - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

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.

4.0.2 to 4.0.3 noob help

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

[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.

[Q] where can find official ICS 4.0.3 ROM (not verizon..)

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?

If I update it to 4.0.3 then can I keep my apps and all other? (dalvik vm must cleaned..?)

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...

Rooted Transition from 4.1.1 to 4.2

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.

what rom/kernal am i using?

Hi guys, I got my glide sent over from the u.s (I'm in the u.k) a few months ago, it was already rooted for me, and as such, I'm wondering what rom and kernal I'm using?
The details I can retreive are:
Android ver 4.0.4
Baseband : I927RUXKJ5
Kernal : 3.1.10-I927UCLG9-CL970642
Build. : IMM67D
Does this give anyone any clues?
Is this the stock ota ics update from at&t?
The phone is a rojers one.
Stock kernal?
Just wondering as was thinking about flashing the litekernal, and not sure if it would work ok with the rom I am using, as this rom is very stable..
Btw cwm is installed etc..
Thanks..
James.

Correct, that's the UCLG9 Samsung stock rom with stock kernel and you should have no problems installing the ICS version of litekernel.
