Hi, I have a Galaxy Nexus i9250m from Bell. Because I am in Canada, I have a yakjuux 4.0.1 build. I want to update to JB. Can I flash an ota update for a yakju 4.0.4 build and then do an ota update to JB? So, my question is if I have yakjuux can I flash a yakju update so that I dont loose all of my data?
If you couldn't tell, this is my first post. :laugh:

The answers to your two questions are no and no.
But you can do an ADB backup, copy that and your files to your PC, then wipe and install yakju JB.
Edit: more info in the basics and flash links in my signature.

So will that wipe all the data off my phone?

If you haven yet unlock the bootloader, it will.

Yeah I didn't do that yet. Can I use something like lookout backup to backup my apps and contacts and then restore them after?

Can I get the ROM directly from Google? I only want to use official updates and ROMs if I can.

That is awesome! The people on these forums are very helpful. One more question though. Do I have to root my device to use that?

1) Follow the guide here to back up your data.
2) Move all of your files in /sdcard off your device.
3) Follow this guide to flash yakju (or takju) JRO03C.
All of your questions have already been answered in other threads. This is a good place to start reading...
OK thanks for being patient with me I really appreciate it.

Hey,
The great Videotron is still running on 4.0.1 and im pretty anxious to get 4.0.4, wondering if anyone has gotten the update yet.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk
Its not dependent on your carrier, its dependent on the build of yakju your phone has on it. You're better off finding that out and associating that build with the discussion.
Baseband version:
I9250UGKL1
Build number:
ITl41F.19250UGKL1
Sorry, new to all this android stuff. But not getting major software updates really enervates me.

Don't see anything about yakju.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk
Videotron is a Canadian carrier, so that would presumably be yakjuux. No other update other than yakju appears to be live yet.
Canadian yakjuux is now at 4.0.4 actually, same as Yakju.
I'm running a GNex on Rogers.
Keep checking. Check threads for an OTA link or something.

Hey dice62,
Could you elaborate on what an ota link is? Like I said I'm new to this.

Did you actually get an OTA update or did you update manually from that thread? Only one person, OP of that thread, has actually reported getting an OTA for yakjuux. Otherwise it appears to be a leak or accidental release. The version and kernel are older than yakju, and OP even said he got the notification a week before Google even announced 4.0.4.
The url is there, I just view it as more of a curiosity than 'live'.
Edit:
He's talking about this thread:

How do you know whether you're running jakju or jakjuux?
Also, what are advantages of rooting a phone if it voids your warranty? How easy is it to do? Can you unroot?
Definitely don't expect someone to make a writeup about it, but a link to a "how to" and faq would be awesome.

Yakju*
use this app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.cbruegg.officialupdate
If "Google" then you're yakju. If "Samsung" then you're some yakjuxx variant.

You don't have to root to flash yakju. just unlock the bootloader and flash images. It doesn't void your warranty. If you do choose to root, yes you can unroot and always restore back to stock.

There's a guide here:

Its not rooting or modding. What you are doing is returning it to stock condition. My preference is to use Linux as no drivers are required - you can simply download one file from the developer page, extract and flash.
when will yakjuxw receive 4.2 update officially?

Your guess is as good as everyone else's on that. It's Samsung who pushes out the updates for the regional yakju variants and they don't announce when.

Thats exactly what I've done! Google for yakjuxv to yakju there are several ways...
DL the nexus root toolkit there is even a tutorial inside the program for how installing the right drivers. For me the third manual way was the only one working.I actually changed the yakjuxv to takju and (4.1.1 to 4.1.2) and then got the 4.2 update OTA.

And what did you use for upgrading only to 4.1.2 takju? i think this method is best, since you get 4.2 OTA meaning you aint using a fake version for the galaxy nexus

are you rooted? if so, you can use mobile odin and flash a stock image.
Yup. My phones is rooted. Can you attach the things I have to flash or is it the same as drivers yakjuxw to yakju tutorials

you need to find a ODIN image packaged together in the dev forums.
if you have a custom recovery then just download the 4.2.1 factory image from the dev section and flash it

The odin files are kinda big, you need to do a search.
Or you can download bigxie's ROM, close enough to stock as far as i can see.

Hi all,
So, because I am dumb as *****, I did not do a nandroid backup of the original ROM for my Rogers Galaxy Nexus.
I now have the well spread out USB port problem (any battery not charging beyond X % and falling....) and would like to bring it in for warranty replacement. However, I realized that I omitted the most important step when I first flashed my ROM to 4.1 (the push updates were taking too long for my taste) and now I'm stuck with a google build which I enjoy greatly but do not want to bring in to Rogers support.
1- Can anyone tell me exactly what build the "stock" Rogers G Nexus are at and is there anywhere to get it? (My HTC magic stock ROM was easily accessible and I can`t seem to find it for the GNexus... is it just the google build?)
2- If the stock ROM is not accessible, could anyone upload a nandroid backup of the stock rom?
I just don't want to bring it in for warranty replacement, get a new one and then get charged 400$ on my bill because tech support saw it wasn't the right ROM on it.... (I've read it happened to a guy on Verizon, don't want to take that risk.)
Please help... :crying:
Any luck on the stock? If not I'll try to upload mine. Lol its funny cause my problem is I have the yakju boot loader. I can't find rogers yakjuux. Did u go the yakju way?

Let me know if this works. I haven't tried to many drop box links but here is a yakjuux backup

Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
There is at least one stock yakjuux ROM posted in the Dev section, and one posted in the General section. There may be more as well. It doesn't matter if it says Bell or Wind or Telus or whatever. All yakjuux ROMs are the same.
By the way, I have yet to hear of anyone returning a device with yakju or takju on it and getting denied warranty, however, I have heard of many people returning it with yakju or takju flashed, and still receiving warranty service.

What are you trying to do? Flash yakjuux to your device? I suppose what you're saying would work, but why not just restore one of the nandroid backups of yakjuux that i mentioned earlier? Much simpler.

Cause I can't get rid of cwm fully and updates say untrusted zip. They still install but I want to do it like yakju. It ota then updates perfectly.

Yes you can get rid of cwm. The JRO03C thread i replied in earlier has a full cwm backup of yakjuux. If you restore that using cwm, it will overwrite cwm with the yakjuux stock recovery. Then flash the kk15 bootloader and the radio from that thread.
