Trouble installing Jelly Bean on the Gnex - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

So I've tried installing the JRO030 update on my Gnex twice now. Both times ended with it being stuck at the boot logo AFTER a complete shut down. I followed the instructions to a t. Is there anything else I could do to fix it? I'm no noob here, but I'm lost at this point.

What phone do you have? what kind of gnex

op, get in recovery, wipe data/factory reset, reflash your rom.
if you can't, then try to get in bootloader/fastboot mode, and from there to recovery. doesnt work? reflash recovery.
still doesnt work? start fresh.
oh, wait a sec, you trying to OTA? what build are you currently on?

Give it time. The restart is taking longer with the JB boot loader on the GNex. Its verifying file systems. It may take several minutes, and then will boot into the OS with the X boot animation. Been discussed in several threads.

Have you tried doing a factory reset? Attempt a factory reset and if it gets stuck on the Google boot logo, your phone is missing its recovery image, so you will need to manually flash Jelly Bean with the factory images from Google. Were you able to install the 4.0.4 update when it first came out?

Verizon Galaxy Nexus.
I'm on imm76k.
I did not know it took so long. Can you give me a link to one of the threads?
I tried a factory reset.
Yes, I did. It updated just fine.
Thanks for all the help.

Thanks. The update came yesterday and I decided to try one more time and it worked, mostly because I was patient this time. Lol. Interesting that no one really knows what it does from that tread. Only theories so far.

Loss of ADB and battery charging...

I installed Jelly Belly v5.3 after super wiping, with both the JB boot loader and Trinity kernel. Since then I can't get ADB to connect nor get it to charge without plugging my charger in like 10 times, even then it keeps acting like its charging when its not.
I tried reflashing the original 4.0.4 backup, stock boot loader, you name it. I just don't understand what happened or how to fix it. Weirder still on the stock I can't make calls now. I'm so confused, anyone please help if you can.

Are you positive you flashed the correct rom version for your phone?
I suggest flashing the factory images for your device to return to stock, and see if the issues persist from a complete stock out-of-box experience.

I can't flash the factory images without ADB. Fast boot USB won't even work.
Yes I'm positive I flashed the correct ROM for the toro.
I'm no newb, just new to the Nexus

With adb? You'll never will.
Try different os, usb ports/cable, run fastboot as admin/root

Need Major Help, Never ending boot loop even after flash/wipe

Ok this is weird and maybe this phone just went bad but I was using the phone and I went open the xfinity app and the phone rebooted, now no matter what I wipe and reflash rom's etc it still boot loops. I can get to the start button when you enter your information but I can't get past the sign in just restarts and these are on roms that have worked for me in the past no issues. And it happens with any rom I try so far. I have a sprint galaxy nexus and I'm afraid nothing else can really be done. I have formatted everything only thing I have not done is flash to stock

Problem with rooting (Stuck on reboot loop)

I got my incredible 2 almost two years ago, and spent the whole time having it be rooted and messing with different roms completely carefree. I was supposed to get an upgrade soon, but sadly that didn't happen and won't for another few months. Any ways, I returned my phone to stock for the trade in. Since I am stuck with this phone for awhile longer, the default stock is driving me mad with the slow bloatware and etc, so time to root again.
I downgraded to 2.3.3,which was the easy part, and then used revolutionary. It said I was already s off, and asked if I wanted to install a recovery. I said yes. Upon reboot of my phone it turned itself off and rebooted. Again. And again. In an infinite loop. I went back into recovery and wiped cache and installed the su zip from my sd card, flashed another Rom. Nothing. Installing another Rom has it stuck on boot animation. I have to restore stock and start all over.
I'm confused on what I am doing wrong. Any advice would be great. Thanks.

[PLEASE READ] 4.3 Update Crashes Phone!!

PLEASE TAKE THE TIME TO READ, THANK YOU.
Hello,
I am a Galaxy Nexus user, non rooted, running Android version 4.3. Yesterday I was running 4.2.2 and everything was fine and running as normal. Keep in mind I never rooted my phone, although I have to others in the past. My Nexus was running pure official 4.2.2. I had been waiting for the 4.3 update and was extremely excited when I was the notification that it was ready for my phone. I quickly downloaded it and then it rebooted the phone, as any update should. That's where everything went downhill. The phone started to lag immediately when I turned it on. It was sputtering and jerking but I just thought it was getting used to the update. Then the phone would loose its onscreen buttons and turn the page that I was looking at full screen (meaning I couldn't press home or back, because they simply just weren't there). Then the phone froze all together and after waiting 20 minutes I finally took the battery out and tried again. The EXACT same thing has been happening ever since yesterday and it has made the phone unusable because it will freeze 5 minutes into turning it on. And we then screen times out, the screen will not turn back on, as if the phone was off, when it is not. I'm very frustrated because the phone was working flawlessly before the update and now I have to use my retired G1 because the phone is that unresponsive. I was just hoping someone could please help me, or has a similar story and could make this known to Google. Thank you for reading, please if you can, help me.

Wipe cache and dalvik cacheand flash stock factory images through fastboot
Then flash the latest root files superSU 1.45 and then everything will be okay again.

Since he didn't root his Galaxy Nexus, this method should make him lose all apps data or even internal storage since he has to unlock his bootloader for root.
But it seems to be the only method.
It's time for a full wipe.

I had exactly the same problem so I did factory reset from phone settings 2 days ago and now is just like a new phone working great.
There are just too many changes google did in ~6 months so full wipe is necessary.

Here is my advice: use Nexus toolkit from the development section. Perform the unlock and then flash the factory image. Download it before to start. I always do that way with the new updates. Wipe ewerything. It's worth it.

Please don't use a toolkit.
Just use fastboot commands.

[Q] My Nexus is stuck in 4.1.2 stock

Hey All,
Just got a friends Nexus and it was last used with 4.1.2 jellybean, I tried updating via OTA in settings but there is no update there and says my phone is up to date. I'd like at least 4.2.2 although 4.3 would do well
I've tried using methods of clearing data from the Google framework but that did not work.
Also I have only just installed everything i want on it as i had to factory reset.
Any help?
Thanks in advance

With fastboot. No toolkits of course.

and to add to this, to find all relevant info on your build I believe you can find it in bottom left when you boot into fastboot/bootloader
which is done by holding both volume buttons and power button down all at the same time
I'm not this bad with technology but am new to this device aha
I think I may have screwed up pretty majorly,
I rooted and installed cwm as usual and tried flashing updates but that didn't work
Then I decided that I would install a custom ROM on it which I wasn't going to, so now I'm stuck as I wiped data and tried flashing both pa and slim but both failed, I assume this is because of an older version of cwm which was used because it was needed to flash the updates.
So now I am stuck without an os and when I boot it just goes through the Google logo twice then goes to cwm.
What is suggested for these situations aha? Thanks

Just use adb sideload. Saved my ass a couple of times too.
Thanks but I found a really good method on XDA because I believe it was soft bricked. I used Odin to flash stock 4.2.2 and that got rid of root and custom recovery. Once that was done I then updated to 4.3 in the settings via ota
Thank you for all you help
I have no idea about any of this adb sideload stuff so I'll learn about it before I screw up next time aha
