Okay so I received a GT-i9250M today that I bought off of ebay and after plugging it in to charge, I got a notification about the Jelly Bean update. Don't know if to install it though as I don't know if it can be rooted afterwards. Should I just install the one in the development forum?
It can be rooted afterwards, there is a cwm flashable package available in the dev section.

When you update it, let us know what build it is
Wow. That was fast.

I'm guessing this is for GSM only, not CMDA/Verizon - right?
Yeah it surprised me as well. I'm letting the update run just out of curiosity. Hope it can be rooted. I can't go back to a non-rooted life :'( I'll post the build number when it's done

Don't know, but my phone is GSM model.
btw the build number is JRN84D, same as the one in the development forum.
Maybe it's an I/O phone, but isn't the i9250M from Canada?
Sounds like you bought a Nexus someone got at Google IO. Pretty sure the official OTA isn't going out yet or this forum would be exploding.

Yea your best off to download one of the developmental roms that have some tweaks, fixes, and some mods.
I wouldn't touch the ICS custom roms since ignorance is bliss. They have LOTS of customization that hurts when missed. Some of the JB mods help but you won't miss what you never had!
Welcome to the Nexii Community btw. I recommend a 34px Nav bar and Battery% mods to start you out. The Nav bar mod will make the bar smaller because the stock Nav bar is HUGE!
can you show us the screenshot of the about phone page? what date is the kernel built at?
Oh damn man, I got really excited for a minute.

LOL! so did I, I just got my nexus and it prompted me for a system update but it's only to 4.04
Thanks for going easy on me guys and sorry for getting everyone worked up for nothing. I have attached the screenshot requested. Thanks for the mod suggestions. I see the Galaxy Nexus Toolkit should be updated soon to support JB so as soon as I root I'll get to modding. Loving the phone so far (for the past couple hours :-D). Much better than my old faithful Vibrant on SlimICS, though I still love her too lol
Um, Google took that JRN84D from IMM30D update down just hours after putting it up...so either Google put the update back up and his phone is running IMM30D takju, or Google has begun the roll out to other devices.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 2
OP, are you using yakju or takju? Check your build using the "GN update checker" app in the Play store.
Yeah it appears Google put the JRN84D from IMM30D takju update back up. This guy probably got one of the ones given out at I/O.

Pretty self explanatory from the title. I've seen a bunch of people who have updated from 4.0.2 and welcomed the new changes - but what about us already on 4.0.4? Has anyone gone from IMM30B to IMM76K? What differences did you notice (other than just "better signal") Is it really worth having to wipe our phone for these changes?
Or would waiting to see if a full release comes out so we don't have to wipe our phones is a better option?
Thanks guys.
Just flash the radio's for know and wait for the "Official" release which shouldn't be too far off.

Ditto, I updated my radios but nothing else. I think it'd be a bigger pain to downgrade your whole phone back to 4.0.2 to allow for the proper 4.0.4 update. Easier to wait for an incremental update, or wait for 4.0.5/6

Where the hell is imm76k?
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
It's not for AT&T, it's for VZW
IMM76K is a 4.0.4 Verizon Wireless / LTE release for the GNex that appears official and started getting pushed out OTA to a very few regular users and a number of VzW phones (in store displays for instance) over the last two days. At least one user was good enough to copy the zip before it was installed on his/her device and started it, so many others could start trying it as well.

I was on the leaked 4.0.4 radios/BL and flashed back to the 4.0.2's. Applied the zip file on here and upgraded.
Honestly? Not a fan. Probably going to flash back to what I had. Of course, it's all relative to your hardware/location/etc...
My experience. Flash it and see what yours is.

People got it directly from Google's servers. An xda user ran alogcat on a store phone that was showing the update notice. That file name allowed the URL for the update to be discovered. At least that's what happened on xda .

It is only for Verizon GNexuii right now. As for a changelog, well I haven't seen one yet.
This is my first nexus device, ive owned several other droids but now that i tried the nexus and all its features and advantages, i love it, so much that im not buying anything else till the next one comes out
So the question:
Ive heard jelly bean is coming(i hope it comes for this too), so if it does come, how do i update it? Is the whole thing going to be pushed OTA too? Or do i have to use Kies like with other samsungs? Or do i have to flash an image too?
That thought Its been bugging me for days since i switched to yakju
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus
Its been advertised that the galaxy nexus will be the first phone with jelly bean. This means the GSM nexus straight from Google. Cdma should see it in a few weeks in a form of a custom rom possibly. Usually in the form as an OTA or a hopefully a direct update link... like I have seen from my previous phones.
Sent From My Sprint Galaxy Nexus
Thru OTA just like the rest of the updates although I'm pretty sure the moment it comes out we will get the link at once for manual flashing. Kies won't work because that's only for samsung proprietary products. Ours may be made by samsung but it's still a Google phone
Still on stock Nexus and loving it!
Kies is Samsung phones with Touchwiz only.

Despite have flashed yakju, you will likely not be the first person here on XDA to get the update. As soon as we get the download link (from the first person to post it here), all you have to do is download it from, and follow the instructions in, this thread. Otherwise, just wait for the update to come to your device OTA (although this could take days or weeks after the first person to get it).

The non-yakju non-GSM models will take quite a bit longer to be updated, as Sprint and Verizon have to go through their verification and testing.

I have yakuux and don't want to wipe it and reflash to international version, so that probably means that I won't get the God damn update until like end of the July? Hopefully Google sent the ROM to Samsung already so they can modify it for us before the date...
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda app-developers app
To be honest I don't think yakjuux will ever see any update. We're the only variant still on 4.0.1 as far as I know. Doesn't seem like Samsung gives a crap about Canada.
I agree and that's why I took the plunge and flashed yakju 4.0.4 and everything seems to be better than on yakjuux 4.0.2.

We've waited for 4.0.2 for six months OTA, much less 4.0.4. And 4.1 will hit YAKJU In July.
Maybe after Google releases the next Nexus phone will YAKJUUX get 4.0.4, and then 4.1. That's a hood reason to go YAKJU - at least the update exists.
Theres no other choice for you man, so backup what you can and wipe that thing, why wait if you dont have to
I was reluctant at first but then my balls grew and i flashed that yakju image, and now its confirmed im getting JB(i hope, better chance than you at least)
So do it(carefully)

I don't think 4.0.2 was ever fully released for yakjuux. I'm still on 4.0.1. They had that faulty version which disabled NFC and bugged the market, so it was pulled quite quickly. No word on any other updates after that.
Flash to yakju or takju IMO. Rip off the band-aid and get it over with.
I'm gonna have to grow some balls and then I'll flash to yakju. I'm sick of being on 4.0.1.

They need to test all of their bloatware to make sure it is compatible with Jelly Bean first. That might take a while... In all seriousness, just root and flash a custom ROM. You'll be much happier in the end.
When I first rooted my galaxy nexus, I saw no benefits and regretted it.
Then I got on XDA and realized WTF is wrong with me!?!?!? Rooting the SHIIIIEEET!!!

Well I have been rooting Android devices since G1 (Nexus 1, Desire and LG P990). I have got sick and tired of it and bought Galaxy Nexus just because there is no need to do it. I know I could do it but I dont want to bother with wipe.
Besides, I have bought my device in Europe and it is not connected to Verizon in any way and there is no Verizon bloatware in my phone, it is pure AOSP as far as I can tell.
Well with several devices I mean most images on this site: https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images#mysid
It might be only 2 devices but there are so many versions. See what I mean?
According to a Verizon tech at a store near me he has never even heard of Jelly Bean. I mentioned it to him and he looked at me like I was a moron and said ICS is the most recent OS lol. This was about 2 weeks ago.

you can flash stock roms, but you will not get the update. however, once the official images get placed on google's site, you can convert back to those images and then get all updates.

This thread is strictly for people who are waiting for the OTA , no posts about switching to takju allowed or like the last thread the moderator will close it. In this thread yakju users report if they got the ota update , and also talk about there frustrations while waiting for the ota. thats it .
I think there is a problem with the ota , that has to be the reason for the hold up . If there wasn't no problem , they would have rolled it out by now . Hopefully google gets it fixed soon and we too can enjoy some 4.2 goodness
Yeah, its very delayed, this might be like when 4.1 came out.
Yakju users didnt get it till 4.1.1 and by then a bunch of people had jumped to the takju ship.
Well here we are impatienly waiting for Ota

I'm pretty sure 4.1 was only a developer's preview build that came with phones given away at Google I/O. It was never an OTA, therefore it was never "delayed".
