Just got my nexus - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

Was looking around for an answer but I couldn't find one via Google search. But I just got a notification that said I should update to jelly bean. Is it wise to update like that? Sometimes AT&T tires to trap you and I don't wanna take the bait.

Yakju /Takju GSM gNex updates come direct from Google, no AT&T involvement. I'd update.

Yea man just update. They are always from google

Okay sweet thanks! Just booted up on jelly bean and oh my its so much better than the ported jelly bean the s 2 had.

Gotta remember that on the GSM Nexus you can get the OTA just fine without a SIM even in the phone. The carrier isn't involved.

This update is for takju phones. I got the update on the Galaxy Nexus I just received an hour ago at Google I/O. Mine is updating now.
So we DO flash it?
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda app-developers app
So we need to be on takju. And is this just an update or a full firmware? Its quite large.
So this is the OTA being pushed to those GNex given out at I/O today then... This can't be final software. Wondering what flashing this update will do to our ability to get the later update... or if we'll be able to flash the official one after or accept an OTA... So many questions left unanswered.
What's jelly bean look like

theres no ETA, but expect it maybe in a month or so. maybe two at most.
I'm with sprint, and i don't think i have EVER updated oficially, since they always delay everything.
If i was in your shoes, i would root, and install stock jelly belly
I'm really really new on this so I have no idea how to do it.. is there any place I could go that has like a guide for it?

With android cdma its best to assume your carrier sucks And you'll never get an update. They're in the business of selling phones not updating them... obtain root control your own device.

No one knows. Either flash a custom ROM, or keep waiting and stop complaining. Sucks, but that's how it is. No one knows when the OTA is coming and until it's officially rolling out you can't know for sure. No use in worrying about it if you don't plan on doing something about it.

Are you the Guy over at Thunderbolt whose TB bit the dust?
Haha welcome, I think more GalNex owners had the Thunderbolt than any other phone, we just got hit so bad with waiting for ICS, none of us want that wait and uncertainty ever again.

Been playing with it all day, getting a feel for phone and battery. Ive git a 2350 battery in it i believe, and life seems pretty good. It did update to jb, and im amazed how fast phone is. If i had a good secure wifi tether, id almost not root, lol! Nah, i gotta see what this thing will do. Really liking so far though.

Should i update radios? Runnin liquid now, no 4g.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda app-developers app
Do yourself a favor and if you haven't yet already learn adb and fastboot command lines there is no need for a toolkit for this phone. And to answer your radio question unlike the thunderbolt any radio combination works on any ROM you can update or change radios to see if they help you out but it shouldn't matter if you're getting 4g or not. Plus these roms never include radios..well from what I have seen all the radios can be flashed separately through the bootloader or some people have made flashable zips containing them.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
1. Get Gnex
2. Root/Unlock
3. Flash new radios
4. Flash new bootloader
5. Flash new ROM - I would vouch for Codename Android with Faux's kernel
that's my recommendation plan
Brace yourself, flash addiction is comimg.

How much more I have to wait for JB 4.2 Update?

Hello! I have Galaxy Nexus phone purchased from France. So it has yakjuxw filmware. I haven't revived 4.2 JB update even its out one and half months ago. When I look in about it shows 4.1.1 version. How much more I have to wait?

I have no idea when will it be available but maybe you would like to check this thread. I think everyone will suggest on you to switch to yakju to receive your OTA much faster
^^BUMP
Ask Samsung. Because nobody has any idea when it's coming.

If you would read, he is on yakjuxw, which is not updated by Google. It does not have 4.2 so that trick will not work.
So no I am not smoking crack, you just can't read

Hello there are few days not that google has released the latest version of google play. does anyone know how i can force my device to download it? i don't want to install apk files that are not available in the internet

I got the update a few days ago. It's not a leak.
Its not leaked its already being pushed officially has been for the last week, get the apk directly from android police site if you haven't received the update yet, just google search it, google play store 4.0.25 is the latest.

You guys didn't read the op. He said that he does not want to install from APK. So its not rolling out to GNex... Only for newer phones... Therefore its a leak.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda app-developers app
I don't think that's necessarily true as it pushed to my GNex before my Nexus 4 or 7.

What's wrong with installing the apk if you don't mind me asking, is something magical going to happen with getting it pushed rather than using the apk from android police.

Absolutely nothing at all. It's 100% safe to install the apk for the Play Store from AP. It's where a majority of us get/install it from. :good:
