The Galaxy Nexus phones I bought of Google Play all got the 4.1.2 update... but the freebie phone I got when I attended Google IO still hasn't. Are the updates still rolling out or is something wrong here? Keep checking, but it never finds an update.

if your device is the same as the retail version then just manually flash the the update. You can download the image from Googles site.

I think the point he is making is that everyone got the update while he is left in the dark, and he is one of the few that probably deserves the update first before others

I understood his post as what you had suggested, but I also felt compelled to point him into a direction that could get him current with everyone else if he chose to do so......basically I circumvented reasoning and gave a possible solution for him to mind juggle

confirmed. no update on my IO gnex either. wtf?
you are on xda.. download the toolkit, unlock bootloader and flash recovery on your gnex, download a rom/gapps and put it on your sd, flash the rom/gapps = problem solved
The point is not that he wants the update... its that Google has not pushed the update to the IO devices.

Well he may be waiting a very long time as IO devices are generally the very last to be updated.

If I have to flash it, eventually I will. I wanted to keep this as my stock dev device for development and would've expected that the devices given to the developers at Google IO wouldn't be receiving the updates late... assuming that this thing will get an update at sometime in the future. Very surprising since I would've thought the phones handed to devs, if any, should be first in line to receive updates, unless something has gone wrong with my update.

Sorry to hear it. I fully agree but I think Google view is that it is a dev device so you can update with the 4.1.2 firmware currently available. Send Google an email and see what they say.
Good luck...

Well, I called Samsung and they said it was the carrier's responsibility. Uh, what carrier? This is a GSM phone that's not from T-Mobile. Weird, I figure their staff just can't handle the question. I get the number for their "expert" support. He says to talk to Google.
I hunt the contact number for Google devices and get a nice guy who has me turn on airplane mode, then turn on wifi. Then clear data for Google app services. Check the about settings, last update check was in 1969. <sigh>, yes, I've done this, but I'll try again. No update found.
He said that it was strange. The update should've been pushed out to it by now and something was wrong, but couldn't help. The only thing left to do was to ship it to Samsung and have them flash the ROM on it.
Forget that, I gave up and I flashed the 4.1.2 factory image myself. I guess I could've saved myself some time by doing it in the first place, but I'm still curious and would like to know why I got the 4.1.1 OTA but 4.1.2 didn't work. Weird.
FYI, my IO nexus just got the update to 4.1.2 today, almost a full month after it started rolling out.

Still haven't got mine. I have the samsung build (forgot what the code is yakjuw?)
Anyways, I really hope we get the updates everyone else is getting because I'm not going to flash to stock google build just to get updates.
I have the samsungbuild (yakjuxw) and i haven't got it yet (norway)
Well I sure hope we get it. That was one of my worries when an XDA forum member first found out there were different builds. Hope we still get updates quickly like the google ones.
I haven't gotten it yet on my yakjuux.

We will get it, but those sent from Google will get it everything from 1 day to 1-2 weeks before us i've heard.
They are planing to release 4.0.3 soon too, so we should get 4.0.2 maybe tomorrow if we are luckey.

Both. But the OTA for GSM started happening today and LTE had the 4.0.2 OTA happening yesterday.
The stock image files were released for both (4.0.2) yesterday.
Anyone yet?
Also, does anyone know if Google responded about this? We have a nexus...we should get updates fast and first like everyone else. Ridiculous.
Article posted on Android Central about the app the person developed. The "update" at the bottom of the article sheds some light.

Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk
@ajftl There's this nice little app in the market called GN Official Update Checker that tells you your build and if it's updated directly by Google.
Pretty self explanatory from the title. I've seen a bunch of people who have updated from 4.0.2 and welcomed the new changes - but what about us already on 4.0.4? Has anyone gone from IMM30B to IMM76K? What differences did you notice (other than just "better signal") Is it really worth having to wipe our phone for these changes?
Or would waiting to see if a full release comes out so we don't have to wipe our phones is a better option?
Thanks guys.
Just flash the radio's for know and wait for the "Official" release which shouldn't be too far off.

Ditto, I updated my radios but nothing else. I think it'd be a bigger pain to downgrade your whole phone back to 4.0.2 to allow for the proper 4.0.4 update. Easier to wait for an incremental update, or wait for 4.0.5/6

Where the hell is imm76k?
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
It's not for AT&T, it's for VZW
IMM76K is a 4.0.4 Verizon Wireless / LTE release for the GNex that appears official and started getting pushed out OTA to a very few regular users and a number of VzW phones (in store displays for instance) over the last two days. At least one user was good enough to copy the zip before it was installed on his/her device and started it, so many others could start trying it as well.

I was on the leaked 4.0.4 radios/BL and flashed back to the 4.0.2's. Applied the zip file on here and upgraded.
Honestly? Not a fan. Probably going to flash back to what I had. Of course, it's all relative to your hardware/location/etc...
My experience. Flash it and see what yours is.

People got it directly from Google's servers. An xda user ran alogcat on a store phone that was showing the update notice. That file name allowed the URL for the update to be discovered. At least that's what happened on xda .

It is only for Verizon GNexuii right now. As for a changelog, well I haven't seen one yet.
This is my first nexus device, ive owned several other droids but now that i tried the nexus and all its features and advantages, i love it, so much that im not buying anything else till the next one comes out
So the question:
Ive heard jelly bean is coming(i hope it comes for this too), so if it does come, how do i update it? Is the whole thing going to be pushed OTA too? Or do i have to use Kies like with other samsungs? Or do i have to flash an image too?
That thought Its been bugging me for days since i switched to yakju
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus
Its been advertised that the galaxy nexus will be the first phone with jelly bean. This means the GSM nexus straight from Google. Cdma should see it in a few weeks in a form of a custom rom possibly. Usually in the form as an OTA or a hopefully a direct update link... like I have seen from my previous phones.
Sent From My Sprint Galaxy Nexus
Thru OTA just like the rest of the updates although I'm pretty sure the moment it comes out we will get the link at once for manual flashing. Kies won't work because that's only for samsung proprietary products. Ours may be made by samsung but it's still a Google phone
Still on stock Nexus and loving it!
Kies is Samsung phones with Touchwiz only.

Despite have flashed yakju, you will likely not be the first person here on XDA to get the update. As soon as we get the download link (from the first person to post it here), all you have to do is download it from, and follow the instructions in, this thread. Otherwise, just wait for the update to come to your device OTA (although this could take days or weeks after the first person to get it).

The non-yakju non-GSM models will take quite a bit longer to be updated, as Sprint and Verizon have to go through their verification and testing.

I don't understand why people are hesitant on upgrading their OS manually if they are eagerly waiting for the newest one. There are no drawbacks and you can go to your "official" version any time you want for warranty purpose.

Canada is still on 4.0.1 volume fix, since the Canadian build (yakjuux) didn't receive any updates since. The 4.0.2 update was pushed in February/March but due to NFC issues and Play store issues it was pulled, and never re-initiated.
So Canada is on 4.0.1, yakjuxw is on 4.0.4 along with the Google builds (yakju and takju), and the remaining builds are on 4.0.2.
Imagine you buy any product for it's one specific advertised feature. You pay full price and then surprise: that one feature is just not there. You can easily fix it yourself, but wouldn't you be angry? Everybody knows there are options to flash whatever you want manually, but the point is you were lied to and paid for something that you didn't get.
OK. I am not confident yet to update manually. Have spent the last couple days learning more about this.
My main concern is that when jellybean is released officially. (I know you guys probly have it but I like things to be easy, still find rooting etc to be rather daunting)
My phone isn't much but its rather special

The process of flashing a yakju or takju ROM (including 4.1) is significantly easier than you might think. No "rooting" required.
Take a look at the flash link in my signature. Part of the first post will show you how to unlock your bootloader, and once that is done, the second post will tell you how to get the official 4.1 build (which can receive OTA updates).
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 2
This thread is strictly for people who are waiting for the OTA , no posts about switching to takju allowed or like the last thread the moderator will close it. In this thread yakju users report if they got the ota update , and also talk about there frustrations while waiting for the ota. thats it .
I think there is a problem with the ota , that has to be the reason for the hold up . If there wasn't no problem , they would have rolled it out by now . Hopefully google gets it fixed soon and we too can enjoy some 4.2 goodness
Yeah, its very delayed, this might be like when 4.1 came out.
Yakju users didnt get it till 4.1.1 and by then a bunch of people had jumped to the takju ship.
Well here we are impatienly waiting for Ota
Ps: another rule, dont post stuff like all those "ive got it but it didnt work" or "mine magically transformed into a takju"
False hope sucks and drives the check now button spammers crazy

I'm pretty sure 4.1 was only a developer's preview build that came with phones given away at Google I/O. It was never an OTA, therefore it was never "delayed".
