There are other ways, but if he doesn't have CWM, just have him pull the update through the update manager in Android, then get Wugfresh's NexusToolkit and just have it unlock + root/install CWM and then just fwipe and either clean flash the stock JB ROM from Google or find yourself another ROM like ParanoidAndroid or AndroidHD Revolution. Like I said, there are other ways/combinations to do this, but this is the most automatic way to do it(read: lazy man way) and what I think is the easiest way as it requires very little user interaction with the process.

4.0.3 upgrade questions.

I'm on the LTE version of the nexus, running 4.0.2 rooted and unlocked. Will I still receive the update or do I have to flash it?? If I have to flash it where can I download it at?? I want to use a custom kernel but it won't work with my version...confused.

If you download it OTA then you will lose root. To retain root and custom kernals you will need to manually flash a rooted version by downloading it and using CWM.

You'll need to sit tight and wait for this. Or just flash a custom rom developed from 4.0.3.
I know that, I was telling the original poster that there was no 4.0.3 upgrade available yet.

Oh lol. Some dudes kernel says its only comparable with that version #confused

There are 4.0.3 AOSP builds, grab one!
according some posts, you will not receive future OTA update if you have custom rom installed, even AOSP build.
I just want a stock deodexed 4.0.3 rom. No changes no mods. Does that exist?

Just use a back up from titanium it will put it back on your phone,,,, if you don't have one then flash a ics Rom install flash and titanium back up, back up flash, then install a jelly bean Rom and restore boom!!!! You got flash,,, truth is you don't really need flash since everyone pretty much uses html5

Thanks for this. Has anyone gotten WiFi tether to work on frosty jb? I never see the connection when trying to use the hotspot with my nexus 7. I've changed the device profile to generic ics/jb wlan0 and still no go.

no go on the wifi tether for me as well
Tether will not work on JB Kernels, JB based ROMS, and JB Touchwiz leaked stock roms.

i was just wondering if i root my phone will i still be able to recieve ota updates? and also is the anyway to just delete cwm recovery? im not rooted by the way!
Here's my Tip:
When using WIFI Tether, change your profile to Samsung Galaxy Nexus (CDMA/LTE).... Works like a champ with no issues.

Stock Rom Just Rooted.
T-Mobile S3
So there's no need to wipe when Odin back to stock to unroot?

People come to this thread for rooting, custom ROMS, ect....so I think this is a great place for this thread so they can find all guides in one place.
I agree that this should be in General.
Techfanatic9, this is good work and you keep supporting it which is great, but this would be better served in General.

OTA wont work
Hey guys,
I unrooted my S3 verizon using the ODIN method, and I am trying to OTA update to JB...the unrooting method took me to ICS stock 4.0.4
Sorry for the silly question, i am a newbie and it's frustrating

Check Dev section. You like Samsung skins, go back to waiting 4 months for a system update. This is AOSP.

Is there any differences? Is it worth the time to go official jelly bean update? Or should I just stay on leaked fk23 jb?

Have you updated from fk23 to gb27? I'm still using fk23 "rooted", and was thinking of updating it to gb27... I have the Samsung simple upgrade tool, because I can't use kies to update it... If you updated using the same method, did everything work out ok?... I'm not sure if this will harm my phone...

Why not just flash the stock rooted gb27 from Garwynn and sxtp developers?

Back then when my device was running ICS, I updated my device to jelly bean 4.1.2 using the Samsung simple upgrade tool. It worked perfectly. Had no issues during the process. Afterwards, you simply root your device if you want, and you are good to go. Definitely recommend updating to the latest version GB27.
