Hello, my rooted Yakju Galaxy Nexus crashed this morning when it was being auto updated to 4.0.4 and now it's stuck on 4.0.2 and won't update (I had to pull the battery out to exit the error screen). How can I update to 4.0.4 build? Do I have to do it manually? if so, what are the proper steps to install the official google build for 4.0.4 OS?
It's simple, use the Toolkit

The update failed because you have something that is not stock, be it the kernel, recovery or any files in /system. You can replace whatever is not stock with the stock version, or you can just re-flash the stock ROM (see here for instructions).
ahh i actually used that ToolKit to root my phone. Also, is there a way to know what part of my phone doesn't use the stock?

Hello,
today I heard about an update to android 4.0.4 for the galaxy nexus and more.
I was wondering: I've got the stock rom for the galaxy nexus, but it is rooted. Will I get the official update tot 4.0.4
Thanks in advance

If you are running Stock ROM you should be getting the OTA. Be aware that you also have to have Stock Recovery in order to let the OTA install automatically. Rooting won't alone will not prevent the OTA but you will most probably loose the root and have to re-root.

I just rooted it, nothing more. Thanks for the information, can't wait for the update!
I keep getting the new OTA IMM76I update for my Sprint Galaxy Nexus and every time it downloads & starts to install it just opens up TWRP recovery and nothing happens...
I tried to use the Nexus Toolkit as well and do exactly what it says but get hung up on "waiting for device" after it extracts the files and everything...
I've been searching for 4 hours to try to get this update done because my calls keep dropping...
is it because I have the Franco Kernel installed on a rooted device?
no ROM or anything, just rooted with the Franco Kernel...
I tried like hell to find the stock kernel but couldn't...
DAMN this is aggravating
could someone PLEASE either explain or point to a link where it explains how to deal with this issue?
HATE having a brand new phone and the calls keep dropping....
I know there are "lots of threads on this issue" already but none clearly explain how to fix THIS issue...
please hep me out...thanks in advance.

While the above link is for how to manually install updates, the reasons why an ota update won't install are the same: if you want it to install ota, you need: the stock kernel, stock recovery, stock radio, and stock rom (with no original files missing/modified). Additionally, all of these have to be the same version.
Maybe you could also get the ota update file name for us as well.

does the stock radio stay the same after root?
like I said, all I changed was the kernel...so I'd have to flash the stock kernel to install the update, correct?
another issue I'm having is damn CWM....I have TWRP on here now and when I go to flash CWM through ROM Manager it get all the way to the end, freezes then fails...can't seem to get CWM installed for my life.
also what is all this "yakju, takju, etc..."??
I'm new to this device from an Evo 4G where we just download & flash and all updates work..never had an issue like this.
my device is v4.0.4., build Imm76D.L700FC12
baseband L700.05 V.FC12/L700.FC12
on the bootloader I saw "toro" on there so I'm guessing that's because it hasn't been updated, correct?
thanks.

If all you changed is the kernel, then all you have to do is flash the stock kernel.

would you have the stock kernel?
can't seem to find it...
Try the GN root kit. You'll find it in the dev section. That will get you back on stock kernel.

You need to have stock recovery too.

Unfortunately I do not (I don't own a Sprint device), but I'm sure that it is floating around somewhere.
Hello guys,
Can anyone tell me the steps of how to install Android 4.0.4 update to the stock, unrooted Android 4.0.2 on verizon samsung galaxy nexus?
Use the galaxy nexus 6.0 toolkit and choose the option you want. Its very quick and easy if you dony know hoebto manually use fastboot.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus
Download the IMM76K update file and put it at the root of the internal SDCard and make sure it is named update.zip. Then reboot into recovery and apply the update. If you are on stock 4.0.2 (ICL53F), the update will apply and you'll be on 4.0.4. Be warned that the only 4.0.4 packages we have currently are not official updates, so it is possible you will have to flash back to 4.0.2 to update to 4.0.4 in the future if the actual update is a different build.
But I just saw the steps on Android authority on how to update to 4.0.4. Could anyone please check those steps & let me know

Unless you receive the update OTA, there is NO way to do it without an unlocked bootloader or root or a custom recovery.
If you want to root without unlocking, do this, then apply the update by following this.

If he uses a toolkit like that, it will unlock his bootloader and wipe his data...

This will NOT work, as the file needs to be in /cache, not /sdcard, for the stock recovery to flash it on a GNex. It was different for other devices, but this does NOT work on a GNex, at least not the GSM version.

Want to explain how I was able to flash it in stock recovery then when I had it at the root of /sdcard? I was on fully stock 4.0.2 courtesy of the ICL53F images provided by Google, recovery included.

Not sure. Maybe it is different on the Verizon version.
I though it worked like that as well (because that's how it worked on my Nexus One and Nexus S). But it wasn't the case when I got my GNex (GSM version). It had to be in /cache.
sorry i got my phone today and i updated it via wifi. now it's running ics 4.0.2 build icl53f. and it doesn't do anything when i tap update again. i thought it would upgrade to 4.0.4.
can i flash the latest aokp now or do i have to flash 4.0.4 via odin first?
does it make a difference?
No difference at all.
Use my guide (linked in sig...post #2) to install a rom the correct way (bug free).
I personally just updated.
Solid build.
Just in case you wanted to know why you didn't get the update for 4.0.4, Google doesn't control the release cycle for non-yakju phones (phones that are running ROMs from carriers/vendors). It has to go through their process before it gets sent to you. If you really want IMM76I without needing to go the custom route, just flash the yakju (stock Google) images here. Instructions are here.
I have YAKJU build still no Jellybean OTA on my GNexus
I am now on IMM76I & i have not received OTA update to Jellybean 4.1.
Is per your instructions I have updated to the Google version of ICS (YAKJU).
Should I wait for the OTA? or is there any other way to get Jellybean? (Dont want to root)

You can try to "force it" with the Google Services Framework trick. That's about it.
Hi,
I originally changed from yakujuux to yakuju in order to get from 4.0.1 to 4.0.4 a while ago.
Now I'm trying to upgrade from 4.0.4 to 4.2. I am currently yakuju builld IMM76I. I tried doing an incremental update through CWM and I got an error. I think it's because of the different radios right?
So what would be the best route to fix this? Should I change build's back and downgrade? I also tried installing the official stock ROM but that didn't work either.
Any ideas?
Going through some folders I just saw one of a build backup when I changed it before.
How do I use this backup?
These are the files I have...http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a210/ruckus17/scrnsht.png

you can't update from 4.0.4 to 4.2.1 through ota

When trying the incremental updates, I had downloaded the files and ran them through CWM, not actually through OTA.
I tried the google factory image through CWM and also through the Gnex toolkit, again with no luck.
I have the system update notification on my phone, but everytime it goes to install the update, it fails and displays the android logo with a red triangle in his chest.
Like I said, all I did before, was unlock the phone and change from yakujuux to yakuju to obtain 4.0.4 without root. So that's all I can really think of why it isn't installing any updates. My Gnex is now rooted and unlocked.

who said anything about cwm or a toolkit???
I had meant I had tried with the toolkit and CWM before trying the link you posted.
The return to stock method worked. Thanks!
