[Q] Update to 4.0.4 failed with dead android bot and red triangle - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

Hi guys,
I have seen a few threads like this so my bad for repeating this. I have tried the given options.
So i've had my GSM galaxy nexus for 2 months. she runs 4.0.2 and is rooted. I have received the stock update 8 times but it failed to install each time. There was a little droid bot lying on his back with a red "caution" triangle stickin out of his belly.
I then tried to flash the ROM myself but got the same problem after trying a couple methods. i'm not sure what's wrong. please help. here are my specs:
Model number: Galaxy nexus
Android Version: 4.0.2
Baseband version: SC04DOMKKD
Kernel version: 3.0.8-gaaa2611

Build number: ICL53F.I9250ZSKL2

Efrant made a great guide.

The Android you're seeing is stock recovery...
You might also need fastboot and such.
If you don't have them.
Check my guide (siggy) for info on setting that up.

Haha gotta love your thread tittle "dead android bot " Hahaha
And Yeah follow efrant guide... Its awesome..

Overcome v4.0

Hey all, mega n00b here
My story; I was running Froyo on my P1000 until last week, Kies told me there was an upgrade available to 2.3.3 GB which I undertook.
I took exception to the navigation button lights always on. I looked and searched all over for fixes and tried in vain to root my tab. I even installed a new Kernel that was supposed to be rooted - it installed but no root!? PLUS my WIFI was now f***ed and either would not connect or continuously dropped.
Anyway, the installed kernel had CWM Recovery in it.
I found another post that led me to the Overcome ROM & Kernel.
I installed the Kernel first and was shi**ing bricks when all that happened was the word "andriod" flashing on the screen!
After friggin about with CWM I found I could load the ROM from the external SD which I duly did and Voila a working Tab, and boy is it slick.
Now, I have two questions - any and all help greatly recieved:
1.) What is up with the website for the install guide and other files?
2.) What do I need to do to install a modem and which one is most suitable for my tab I am in UK on Vodafone.
Device Details:
Model Number: GT-P1000
F/W version: 2.3.3
Baseband version: P1000XXJPZ
Kernel version: 2.6.35.7 Overcome-v4.0.0 #40
Build number: Overcome 7 Series v4.0.0
IDK and no
OK
So, no modem needed? ...I've not tested the 3G data on the Tab yet.
I found the issue with the w/s...

[Q] 4.0.1 to 4.0.4? Engineering model

Hello,
I am new to the Galaxy Nexus and 4.0. I traded for a Nexus and it appears to be a unlocked engineering model currently running 4.0.1
I flashed the newest version of clockwork recovery on and see that the new 4.0.4 for GSM was released today. I am reading a lot of back and forth regarding the compatibility of the release so I figured I would check here before I dig in.
Am I able to simply put the 4.0.4 GSM release on my SD and wipe/flash using Clockwork install from zip? or is there something I am missing.
I don't care about losing all my data. I would appreciate any help guys!

the 4.0.4 OTA is a upgrade from 4.0.2. you need 4.0.2 as a prequisite and its for "yakju" devices, verify if your device is 'yakju' it says Galaxy Nexus but 'yakjuxw' has Galaxy Nexus.

thanks for the quick reply. Where do I find if this is YAKJU or not, bootloader?

re-read my post.. i included a link to a app that tells you how to find out.
edit: lol you insulted yourself
Looks like I am on yakjuux. Am I able to move to jakju 4.0.2 and then update to 4.0.4?
Sorry for the back and forth I just need to get the various version straight before I start going crazy flashing

Would you mind doing a couple of things before you flash anything please?
1) Could you check the version of your bootloader? Reboot into the bootloader and read it from there. If you have an engineering version, I'd REALLY appreciate a dump before you flash anything over it.
2) Could you dump your radio? If you don't know how to do it, I can guide you through it. You need root.
We haven't been able to get ahold of any engineering bootloaders/radios yet, and it seems you lucked out.
It would be very much appreciated!!! Thanks.
Any news? Can you dump your radio and bootloader for us?

4.0.4 Radio Goes Offline

Hello,
I just decided to flash Cyanogenmod 9 to my phone to get 4.0.4 and noticed that the signal indicator was hollow and had an x in it after waking up. I then abandoned Cyanogenmod 9 and flashed the 4.0.4 stock image to my phone. Now I can't seem to keep the device connected via mobile voice and data and all I seem to be able to do is reboot the device. I am kind of new to the GSM scheme, but the APN list is empty and I can't seem to scan for mobile networks. To me it seems like the radio is completely disabled. Here are the specs, if anyone has any advice I would appreciate it. I am going to try to restore my backup of my previous rom. Alternatively if anyone has the stock radio image for the yakjuxw, I could also just try to restore that. Thank you for reading my post ^_^.

grab the radio of ICL53F from http://code.google.com/intl/en-EN/android/nexus/images.html
that is the same one you had on yakjuxw.
4.0.2
Thank you. About an hour after my post I tried flashing the yakku stock firmware. I appear not to be having the issue on 4.0.2! I have a sneaking suspicion that the problem is the kernel. I base my hypothesis on the fact that 4.0.2 yakju works fine and Cyanogenmod 9 had similar issues with the same baseband. I'm going to try flashing the newer baseband and staying with 4.0.2 to see if it recurs. Thank you again for confirming the yakjuxw used the same baseband as the yakju! This is all new to me and I appreciate the advice.

I'm afraid of you won't learn anything from this. The 4.0.2 ROM(!) is sticked to GSM/CDMA, but 4.0.4 is sticked to WCDMA preferred...
Hello,
I think the problem comes from Android 4.0.4 itself. I have the same problem with a stock 4.0.4 flashed from the factory image provided by Google.
Other people have the same issue and are talking about it here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=24304822
Same problem here. After update to 4.0.4 I always lost the cellular signal when screen has gone down. I tried with different radios (xxkk6, xxkl1) but it didn't help. Anytime I move back to 4.0.2, problem disappears.
Originally my Gnex was yakjuxw.
My GN was yakju
Strange.. I suspected until now it is related to the difference of yakju and its variants...

I've checked and my phone is a Yakju, I tweeted a pic when I got it : https://twitter.com/#!/mephissto/media/slideshow?url=http://yfrog.com/kicn0p

No Maintenance Update?

Hi all.
So, looking in the general forums I saw threads blow up because people thought that a maintenance thread was the ICS update.
Seeing that their had been a maintenance update I myself went to my settings and pressed "Software Update" only to see a message saying "No Firmware"
So I connected my phone wirelessly to kies and went on my browser to see if I could find something on there and there was nothing on kies either?
Can someone help me?
Here is what my about phone says:
Android Version: 2.3.6
Baseband Version: T989UVKL1
Kernel Version: 2.6.35.11
Build Number: GINGERBREAD.UVKL1
and YESSSS. I am stock unrooted. I have rooted before but flashed back to stock in hopes of the ICS update like a week ago. Can someone please shed some light on this for me please? I am concerned that TMobile is like excluding me or something.
Searching does wonders...

Not sure about your problem, but this forum is for the SGH-T999, not the I9300. Don't flash anything to your phone that you find here.
