Maybe by deleting updatecmds folder from /system/etc/

there is no rollout ota yet

No OTA yet but I downloaded the factory build yesterday and used it to flash to 4.1.2 without any issue

If you flash that an not just the ota it will wipe everything on your phone.

If you skip flashing the userdata image, it will not wipe.

You can just remove the -w switch in the flash-all.sh script to leave data alone

[BOOTLOADER] primeLA03

bootloader LA03 from leaked 4.0.4 cdma build, i successfully flashed (via cwm recovery 5.5.0.4 & fastboot) to my galaxy nexus GSM.

warning: flashing bootloader IS dangerous! i am not responsible if you brick your phone, it worked on mine, who knows if it will work on yours.. i don't.
if you don't know why you should flash this, then DON'T!
zip md5: adf8cd5ea69e00d99769767a3b9fc630

I meant that people had noticed..or from a Dev who had opened it up for a look. That's why I didn't ask for an actual change log lol usually people notice changes quite quickly such as improvements or decrease in performance

Flashing bootloader is always dangerous, method used is not important.

Thanks for your answers I downloaded it and md5 matches up so should be ok but do you know if this will be OK for 4.0.2 roms?

Bootloaders and Radios are independent of Android version. Go ahead.
Does it matter what bootloader you are coming from? Can this be flashed from 4.03?
Also, are there any benefits of flashing a new bootloader besides it looking different?

They're independent of ANYTHING. Go ahead and just flash.
New bootloader = stuff behind the scenes. Will never know unless it comes from Google, it's like flashing a BIOS.
I have no more battery drop after reboot with this bootloader, look like it have a new battery driver.

Probably none.
Could this have messed up access to the market, does anyone else notice that? Market force closes as soon as I click on an app.

I think I've narrowed it down to that though.. Would anyone have the previous bootloader as a cwm flashable zip? Am at work, no pc..
flashed it this morning ... no issue so far ... also market works :thumbup:

[Q] Virgin IMM30D here... ready to update, got a question (:

I just got a Galaxy Nexus from the Google Play store and it's on the IMM30D firmware. I downloaded the JRN84D firmware from Google's servers, but when I boot into recovery (stock), there's only an option to update from the /cache directory... I don't really want to do CWM, so is there a method using ADB to apply the update? And if so, anyone have a link on how to do so?
Thanks
There is a way, but it requires an unlocked bootloader.

Okay that would work... I don't mind unlocking the bootloader because I can lock it again after I'm done. Do you have instructions on how to do it?
Thanks!

Look at the update link in my signature. Follow the method that moves the file to /cache

Is this just a bad install?

After I flashed to Jelly Bean takju from 4.0.1 yakjuux, my phone freezes for few moments sometimes when I go to settings->apps
It also vibrates sometimes when it goes to sleep.
Is this just a bad install?? Can I fix this by hard reset? My phone is completely stock except the fact that the bootloader is unlocked
could be a bad flash it wouldnt hurt to redownload it and reflash after a full wipe

So basically boot into cwm and then flash the 4.1.1 zip file, right?

Flashable zip stock kernel? 4.3

Is there one about? I've searched but nothing came up
Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk
Make one. Or just get it (boot.img) from the update-XYZ.zip inside a factory image and flash with fastboot.
