so as far as I know now, Jelly Belly was build for the GSM Nexus.
then people started to port it over to the VZW Nexus
now VZW Nexus has Version 5.x.x and the GSM Nexus has Version 3
can someone tell me if there's a newer version for the GSM Nexus? oO?
I think both is 4.1.1

V3 is newest gsm version. Higher number doesn't always mean newer or better.

hi guys today I received my nexus, I buy international GSM version, but wanted to know if there is an update to ICS for GSM version, and how to install?? thanks
Nothing yet. I don't think 4.0.2 as rolled out completely OTA.

Other than the Yakju issue, is there any difference between the two? I am interested in knowing the hardware difference like the quality of the SAMOLED screen, radio reception, etc And it is possible to flash the Bell one to Yakju just like the other Nexus, correct?
No difference at all and yes the bell version can be flashed to yakju (i did it)

Thank you! So there are no known problems specifically found in the Bell version? I'm still debating whether I should switch to Bell. Are there any rumors that Rogers and Telus will release a better version in January? 32GB internal storage for example?
hmmm there is a diffrent yakju is google the other ones are samsung

does anyone know if the Telus version coming out January 13 will that the same version as bell? or will it be a pure google phone?
Is Google required to provide Jellybean to GN before GS3?
Since my GN is a VZW phone, I have a feeling that it will get Jellybean after the GS3 gets it.... or am I wrong?
Huh? why would Google be required to provide Jelly Bean? It's all open source.
New flagship device (Nexus tablet or Nexus 4) will get Jelly Bean first be cause it will be launched.
Galaxy Nexus (GSM: yakju/takju) will follow.
Nexus S (GSM) will follow.
VZW will need to wait for Verizon to approve of Google's update. I know I'm missing Sprint but you get the idea.
I am completely positive in telling you that the Galaxy Nexus will get Jellybean before the GSIII.

I don't believe it is required but the gnex will get it ages before the gs3 even dreams of having it because the gnex is an aosp device where as Samsung will take jelly bean and bloat it down with touchwiz and Samsung apps... then it goes to the carriers and they put their apps on and somewhere along the line it just might reach the gs3

I wouldn't bet on that. If we're talking about the GSIII in the USA I would agree with you but overseas or unlocked is a different story. I'm sure one of the overseas variants of the GSIII will see a Jelly Bean ota before we do (VZW/CDMA). We haven't even officially gotten 4.0.4 yet.
GNex will definitely get JB first. The G3 is running Touchwiz, so even when JellyBean is ready, Samsung will need to modify the IU. Regardless of the G3 being a "flagship device" Nexus devices will always get the updates first because they are pure Android.

"Required"? lol. Not sure what you mean by that. Google makes the OS. Who would be holding them accountable to be "required" to do something?
But you know that it will... I mean think about it. They make Jellybean for the new Nexus + old Nexus (that's us). Then they give it to Samsung (and others) who make it all skinned and stuff for their devices.
It necessarily gets JB first...

Just curious, if it's true that ICS was developed on the Nexus S why did it take so long for the Nexus S to get it?
Couldn't find anything on google search for "ice cream sandwich develop on nexus s" so thought I'd ask...

Wouldn't they have the recuse themselves, since Google created them?
It reminds me of the movie "Robocop" where the robocop was programmed
with a specific directive preventing him from arresting exeutives of OCP.

I hear ya, and the same will likely be true for JB. I should've said, GSM will likely see it first; CDMA, probably not.

No, I was dead serious. First glimpse of ICS ever was on a Nexus S. As for why it took so long...because they probably wanted the GN to be released first.
Then they did their little peepee dance and canceled the 4.0.3 push shortly after it began for whatever reason.
The GNex and NS will both get Jellybean before the GS3 IMO.
Why would the carriers and/or Samsung upgrade the GS3 asap? What incentive do they have? They don't, so they won't.
Google isn't required to do anything but my bet us that gn gets jellybean much much sooner for the before mentioned reasons and judging by the past. If the hardware is capable it will get it. The nexus s got ics same day that the Verizon galaxy Nexus came out.

The CDMA (Verizon) Galaxy Nexus is not really an unlocked "Nexus" phone in the traditional Google definition (like the GSM pentaband version) in the sense that it is still "locked" to Verizon's will to get an update. Real Google phones get updates pushed directly from Google servers. Heck they can't even switch SIM cards or use other providers or use it abroad with international SIMs.

I have been wondering about that since I got my GN back in December.
Does Google have to get Verizon's permission in order to push OTA update to CDMA Galaxy Nexus phones?

Neither is the Docomo GSM Nexus.
When one would realistically should expect in terms of official update to Jelly Bean?

Well, we only recently got the most recent version of ICS from Verizon, what, in the last couple weeks? I would expect Verizon to take MONTHS before we see a stock OTA verizon jelly bean.
Same on XOOM, the xoom wifi, GSM Galaxy Nexus, get updates early and often. Verizon LTE versions of the Xoom and Galaxy Nexus get updates months and months after the non LTE versions do.
Verizon LTE is NOT "I want to have the latest stuff" friendly. Verizon LTE IS way faster (good area to good area) than GSM currently.
I routinely get 30 MBS downloads on Verizon GSM Gnexus, and 10 MBS on T-mobile with an S2, in NJ, Boston, and Chicago areas.
The Verizon Gnexus is freaking fast, a good phone, but, leaves us jealous of our GSM Nexus cousins who get the latest OS stuff months before we do.

Hello all,
I know its a busy time for GNex forum but here i am an upcoming new member who cant wait to join with this...
I am buying a new GNex and i think its the Korean version which comes with an extra battery and a back cover...I just want to know whats the difference between this Korean version and International version?
Also, it has any difference in the firmware and updating of it?? Like updates come later and such
Any help would be really appreciated

As far as i know there are only 3 variants, i9250 (maguro) verizon lte (toro) sprint lte (toroplus) so if its a 3g gnex you're safe.
All Google images should be compatible if it's i9250

Sch are carrier locked and if anything you'd know it's sch if it has dual Sim, or some TV app on it. If I were you ask them to send a screenshot of the settings->About Phone and look at the model number.

Korean versions are 100% maguro, so you can just unlock the bootloader and do whatever you do. Its hardware is the same as international version

Model Number doesn't tell you anything but Galaxy Nexus
The Korean gnex, whether its from sk telecom or from kt, has exactly the same hardware as i9250.
The only difference is that It comes with yakjukr instead of yakju.
I am using shw-m420s (sk telecom variant) with yakju factory image flashed to get earlier ota updates, and it works flawlessly as expected.
