[NEED] JELLYBEANS - Radio + Bootloader - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

Can someone who applied the OTA using standard method post the trimmed radio and boot loader?

Tell me the method and I will do it.

There are tools and instructions for automatically and manually extracting the radio in my radio-thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=21317976&postcount=8
For bootloader, there is a bootloader-collection thread on XDA somewhere. I'm sure it's covered there.

radio already posted, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=27984155&postcount=1096

Yup. Went into the thread and found it right after posting here. Which leaves us with the bootloader.
Here's the thread, cant seem to find a method in there.

Well if you find the way to extract the bootloader, I can do that for you.

bootloader is easy. just download the OTA zip and take bootloader.img and flash it. no tricks necessary to get it.

For anyone who can't be bothered downloading the whole ota

Uploaded JellyBean bootloader CWM package.

Why do I need the bootloader if I got JB working already, and what's the risk of flashing it?

Please refer to the Radio or Bootloader reference threads for these.

I unlocked the bootloader using the official HTCDev tool. Now what?

What are the next steps in rooting? Follow the usual using Revolutionary? Install CWM manually?
Would appreciate your help folks!
Thanks
Agreed! With the bootlaoder now unlocked, what are the steps to rooting this beast? Do we still need to downgrade? Please pardon my noobness.
You wouldn't need to downgrade, I do know that. But as far as the rest, Idk. I did mine with revolutionary a while back before the 2.3.4 update, so I've been kicking ever since.

I would see if you can install superuser from the market.
EDIT: I would also see if you can install CWM and ROM manager. If all those install ok you should be able to load a custom ROM.

You do not have to downgrade if you unlocked. You should be able to install a new recovery image like Clockwork.

An unlocked bootloader does not equal root.

Installed CWM 5.0, superuser and after wiping data/cache and flashing a rom... Stuck at HTC White screen!
Flashed several roms, can't get passed it.
It's frustrating... No idea what to do next. I'm going to try flashing an earlier version of CWM and retry flashing a ROM.
Will update with progress.

How long are you waiting bro..?
First. You should have not used the htcdev garbage. You should have used revolutionary.
That is all.
Sorry I can't help you. I use a ns4g. And that's all I know about the htcdev unlocker

When you flash a custom ROM from CWM on an unlocked HBOOT, you then need to manually extract the boot.img from the custom ROM zip file and manually flash it in Fastboot mode using the command
Fastboot flash boot [path to the boot.img file]
This has been documented multiple times in this forum.

Yes in your case you will need to relock the bootloader in order to flash the RUU/PG32IMG.zip file. You cannot flash a RUU on an unlocked bootloader.
I'm guessing you guys have something other than .98 hboot? I'll find out soon when my wifes replacement comes in but I was not intending to use the HTC unlocker if I didn't have to. I was planning to try the tool attn1 has posted in the dev section unless the hboot changed with the ota.

Good to hear kinda thought it was. I'll be using the method attn1 has posted then. I don't trust the unlock method through HTC for one main reason which is this... Unlocking bootloader and rooting voids warranty as we all know. So what happens when HTC knows your bootloader was unlocked because you used their tool and they have the serial number?

Hi Herman....If you know the url of that post that'd be great. I've always thought that the only way to flash images was to unlock bootloader and use fastboot/adb.

You could use ODIN to flash without being unlocked I think but you'll also lose most if not all data

As EddyOS stated earlier, if you use odin (which is what the link you referenced is suggesting), you will wipe your device anyway. There is no difference between doing it that way, or unlocking -> using fastboot -> and relocking*, except that you will get ITL41F using odin and update via OTA to ICL53F, versus getting ICL53F immediately using fastboot.
*P.S. I would highly recommend that you do NOT relock your bootloader, as it will save you many hassles in the future. (And besides, it is relockable whenever you want...)
This is really confusing. Fastboot, CMW, odin...What are these ? Is there a SUPER noob friendly post which will guide me from the veeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeerrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrryyyyyyyyyyy start on how to place a yakju build on my GNexus ? I'm a complete noob (0% knowledge when it comes to android).
You don't need a yakju build to receive an update.. and look in the dev section for guides.

I replied to you in the other thread with instructions for you. You are getting confused because there are many ways to flash a ROM, and you are not taking the time to read up and find out which one would be the easiest for you...

[REF] [BOOTLOADER] [GSM & CDMA] Bootloader Collection

EDIT: OK, finally had the chance to update this.
Similar to what josteink has done with the radios here, I've decided to try and compile a list of all the available bootloaders for the Galaxy Nexus, so that people have a "one-stop" for all of them.
Unless stated otherwise, I've pulled all of these myself from either the yakju/mysid factory images from Google's site here or from the OTA update file list that I have compiled here.
If I am missing any, please let me know, or point me in the right direction.
Notes:
1) I have no idea what the differences are between the versions.
2) The maguro, toro and toroplus bootloaders are identical, so you can use them on all three devices.
3) The bootloaders are shipping bootloaders. To date, I have only seen two individuals report that they had engineering devices, and they have not dumped their bootloaders for us.
Disclaimer: I take no responsibility if you mess up your device by flashing any of these bootloaders.
I have attached both the fastboot image (extract from zip) and the CWM-flashable version.
Bootloader List (in order -- newest on top):
PRIMEMD04 - Source: takju JWR66V factory image. Posted by Carlos_Manuel here.

Let me guess: you are coming to the Galaxy Nexus from an HTC device, correct?
I can tell based on your post. HTC devices are notorious for brick with a failed bootloader or radio flash. There was no way to re-flash the bootloader given that we only had fastboot to flash it. Samsung devices are a little different: they have download mode, which can effectively flash images without needing to use the fastboot (i.e., bootloader) interface.
By the way, how do you think OTA updates flash bootloaders? In recovery...

+1 upon flashing the OTA, it does update the bootloader of their phone. It is perfectly safe, just be assured that the MD5 matches as the one in the OP post before flashing it in recovery / fastboot.
Tried downloading these, but evidently XDA is messed up right now and DLing any attachments results in a 554 byte file which is useless.
Good thing I check MD5-sums before flashing bootloaders
(PS: you spelled my name wrong in OP )

Well if you're only unlocked, and not rooted, have custom recovery/ROM or anything, you are completely stock. Just unlocked bootloader... OTA has nothing to do with unlocking bootloader. Also root doesn't stop OTAs. Just FYI... Only flashing custom ROM, custom kernel or custom recovery or a change to a system partition stops the OTA.

Yes you can use that guide for toroplus (i.e., Sprint) devices as well if you have the images. But since you don't have the userdata image (and therefore you skip that step), you may need to boot CWM and wipe /data and /cache, but only if you experience a bootloop.
So in recovery I have to flash each image? That's the part I don't get.

You cannot flash image files on any recoveries. You need to do those in fastboot mode using command prompt.

Check the stickies section. I think mskip or efrant have a thread with exactly the information you need. I'm almost certain that you can change between Takju and Yakju. Make sure you read and understand everything Before you start though. I'm on mobile or I'd stick a link in here for you.

Yes. If you read the thread I linked to, you'll find that there's no need to root, as the 4.2 image will take away your root. You'll need to apply root again after the flash
