I know that 4.2 just recently started rolling out for the gsm version of the galaxy nexus..
With that being said the CDMA galaxy nexus I.e Verizon and sprint will have to wait til our carriers
Release our updates knowing Verizon it will probably take years lol
But will someone port a 4.2 ROM for us ?
Is it possible? Or does anyone know or have
Some sort of leak images?

It'll happen just like it did last time. First it goes to the HSPA version, then CDMA gets a port.
Oh hai! You must be new here.
There could very well be a GSM port available at the end of today, depending on how devs feel today. This is what happened with 4.1 for the Verizon Gnex, the GSM version came out, and maybe 12 hours later, a dev ported it to the Verizon Gnex. :good:
Thank you for the feedback.. yes I am new I know I'm like a year late but I recently picked up a Verizon galaxy nexus,and with all this stuff releasing today
Nexus 4.. and jb 4.2 I'm excited to run 4.2 on this phone like I said being on Verizon I know it'll take them forever to release that build so I was just curious
If we can get some sort of port
cyanogenmod posted on G+ that 4.2 is being pushed to AOSP now... then you just have to wait for the devs to build one shouldn't be long if you are on toro I would keep an eye for mmuzzy or mwalt to put one up they are pretty quick about it once it hits AOSP
**edit.. just checked, muzzy is already on it I would keep an eye on his thread to be updated

You know when you buy a nice shiny new Nexus, you'd expect to be leading the way in the Android version race...
But what the hell is Google doing with the Galaxy Nexus? Handsets are still at 4.0.1 and 4.0.2... but the Nexus from last year and the Xoom officially have 4.0.3.
Whats up?

That is what the source is for
There are already other threads on this.
The Nexus S OTA isn't even pushed to everyone. It's on hold right now.
The Xoom's ICS push is only for the WiFi version and only for specific people who signed up for it.
Who says that the GN will even get an OTA 4.0.3 update? They may even wait for 4.0.4 or whatever at this point. Who knows. But theres clearly a reason why they're not releasing it. They're not finished and just holding onto it for no reason...
If you really want it that bad you can install a custom ROM based on 4.0.3, or compile it yourself from source and flash it. Or, just wait for the OTA and chill!

I'm on XDA multiple times a day and never seen an actual thread on this. Yea we have kangs and AOSP but who doesn't. I bought a Nexus to get Android updates as they come out... I'm running 4.0.3 and it isn't a huge deal that it isn't out officially, but why is it rolling out to everyone else BUT US?
Yea 4.0.3 may be more geared with older devices to bring them up to speed... but obviously it isn't hurting the Nexus's unofficially running the 4.0.3 AOSP roms, so why not just throw it down to us? If the Nexus is the developer phone for Google, then 4.0.3 was developed on a new Nexus. Then why don't we have it yet?
Something just seems strang IMO. Having a Nexus One and following the Nexus S, I haven't seen them update an older device BEFORE the current line. Isn't it a little weird that last years model is running a newer version then we are? Some Nexus's are running on 4.0.1. Whats that about?

Totally.My.Thoughts.
One thing I'm curious about: Why on Earth was OTA for SNS halted?! My SNS with 4.0.3 was fine, IMO
If you are going to root and put a rom on your phone why do you honestly care? There are so many threads on this already. No PHONE is being pushed 4.0.3 right now anyways.

holy hell guys the OTA for the nexus s was halted because they found some bugs during rollout, so they stopped. and they stopped galaxy nexus because of that as well. when they fix the bugs, they will continue the roll out. do you guys think google is doing this on purpose, they want to NOT give our the update to all as some master plan. or the more likely answer, they are fixing serious bugs.

It is out officially.
Build.
It.
Your.
Self.
The difference between a Nexus and every other Android phone is that you can take the LATEST publicly available source code and build a 100% fully functioning ROM with it. No matter how you slice it, you're not going to be able to build a 100% functioning Stock Android build for any other phones. They are hacked together. They are frankenbuilds. Yes other phones have 4.0.3 releases, but none of them are 100% functional. Not sure if you noticed, but for those phones you'll see a list of "what works" and "what doesnt work". For the Nexus phones, you can just build directly from Google's source and it will just work.
See: Nexus S vs Galaxy S. Although the Nexus S and the Galaxy S are identical in almost every way, the Nexus S has had ICS for months now. And you can build 4.0.3 for the Nexus S and it will Just Work.
The Galaxy S ICS releases otoh are FILLED with "known issues" - feel free to check yourself.
Just because it's not an OTA doesn't mean it's not available. You want a pure AOSP build that will be identical to an OTA that Google would push? Just build it yourself.
Something just seems strang IMO. Having a Nexus One and following the Nexus S, I haven't seen them update an older device BEFORE the current line. Isn't it a little weird that last years model is running a newer version then we are? Some Nexus's are running on 4.0.1. Whats that about?

They updated the Nexus S 4G a few times before they ever rolled out updates to the mainline Nexus S. There's really no rhyme or reason to when they roll out OTAs. If you care so much about having the latest official build though, again, build it yourself from their source code. What else do you think they do? The OTA for 4.0.3 will/would be built from the same identical 1's and 0's, bits, and bytes, that is already available quite openly in the AOSP tree. It's been available for months.
i was on 4.0.1 standard with no OTA updates. doesnt matter because the nexus is made to be customised, and be a developer edition device.
i was happy to flash 4.0.3 and a custom kernel. if you arent, then i think that buying a nexus was not the wisest of decisions.
I think people just want a quality official update direct from Google. Not knocking anything the developers do, but they aren't official builds. I'd rather have something I know Google wants out there running on my phone. For all we know, there are issues with 4.0.3 which is why it hasn't been actually placed on the Nexus S and Galaxy Nexus. Yet, you are so eager to say put it on yourself.

I've been using Androids since the Eris came out. Seriously, 99% of the time the ROMs/kernels put out by the devs here and on other sites are more stable than the official OTAs by the companies.
And I've been using Android since the G1, minus a small timeout on WP7, and custom ROMs always came with quirks left and right, that in their entirety always managed to piss me off in some way. If they don't do stupid **** in the kernel (I especially like the enabling of Linux kernel features just because they sound nice), they mess around with the userland, trying to improve things into breaking.

Google tells you how and what to build a completely untouched version of their code. If that bugs ya, and is not official enough for ya, then you are missing the point of this device. The device is officially supported by AOSP for yakju and mysid. If the idea of a source built rom bugs you just because its not on a Google sanctioned buildbox, then thats a shame.
I understand what you are saying about customized builds, but its easy to make a completely stock Google approved experience. Download source, setup vendor, and then make. Then you can use fastboot to flash. No need for clockwork, no need for root. If there is a demand for this, I would be happy to make both maguro and toro builds. I won't even root them and they will be odexed.
Once i get some time i plan on compiling myself a fully stock ics rom. Cause i can and that is the point of this stupid thing.
could this source help us in any way?

Easy there champ. lets wait for 4.0.3 to be OTA'd.
And remember that just because the NS4G has 4.0.4 doesn't mean the Galaxy Nexus will ever get it (it might skip right over). If you remember, the NS4G had different OTAs and build #'s than even the GSM Nexus S. Its a different device.

true, im fairly new to the nexus line of phones, so i got a little exited, im used to waiting 6+ months for an update lol
Yay, so we're going to be two updates behind the Nexus S soon. Nice job Google!
I doubt there will be leaks for the GSM galaxy nexus. Leaks usually come from carriers, and since there is no official carriers for the GSM version, I think it's doubtful we see leaks.
The verizon version is different. As we've seen, select people with verizon connections have builds prior to official releases. They just keep them among the select few.

Read my reply above. Just because the NS4G is on 4.0.4 doesn't mean were ever going to get it on the GN. The NS and NS4G were on different builds of 2.3 also, but one was never "behind" the other. Chill out.

Well... title pretty much says it all. Is there any difference from the leaked 4.0.4 that's been around a while and a lot of ROM's are running off of and the new official one that just got put out?
I guess I am hoping there will be and that when the CDMA release comes around my phone will improve over the current leaked version.
That's the question... but I would like to add a statement in question form...
When is Verizon going to GET OFF OF THEIR ASS AND MAKE THINGS RIGHT WITH THIS PHONE?
I am on the leaked 4.0.4 and while the phone/data connection is more reliable... it is STILL NOT "right" and I am tired of waiting. I can only imagine the hell the 4.0.2 people are feeling... if there are any left. Verizon has always been known for being slow to market with new gear because they test it SOOO much.... what the hell happened here Big Red?
Big Screen? ____Love it!
ICS ____Very cool!
4G ____SMOKING (WHEN it is working)
Sammy hardware & Finish ____Excellent

Perfect ! Been waiting for this ! Seen it in my newsfeed as well!
I'm excited. The ported releases showed a lot of promise but were just too buggy for me. They did however fix a major bluetooth bug that has plagued both Samsung devices I've used with ICS (SII LTE, SIII) my car.
Looks like we may get it before AT&T users too.

Samsung released the OS to the carriers months ago presumably. The carriers tested it and bloated them up. Samsung stated that it will begin rolling out on Monday so I would assume this means at least the Big 3 will begin rolling it out first.

I agree. Maybe one carrier will push the ota but all three on same day sounds too good to be true. I bought an unlocked telus model yesterday, knowing my luck telus won't release update until 2013 lol. Heres hoping it's all 3 major carriers!

You can't take anything the carrier says as truth. Their reps do not know the answer and anything they give is purely speculation or a rumour they are pushing forward. Carrier reps always find out a day before or on the day of release for the most part about new services/features.
This news came directly from Samsung. Does this mean everyone will get the update on Monday? Probably not but we should start seeing some staggering rollouts to customers and to the rest with each passing day.
I'll start unfreezing my Rogers and Samsung bloat in TBP on Sunday in hopes I get the update on Monday.
I'll wait for a CWM/TWRP flashable version... It's bound to happen shortly once it is released... Otherwise I'll have to unroot or something...
This is fantastic news, and great timing for all of us who snagged one over the weekend through the Black Friday deal for $0 from Telus. I already love this phone as it is!

Doubt it will be Monday. Doesn't the carriers have to add bloat and test it on the network? I would say close to the 15th.
Once it is released people will start complaining about when 4.2.1 will be released. Want the fastest android updates? Get a nexus. Want the best hardware? Don't get a nexus and go cm custom rom. I wouldn't be surprised if cm10.1 was released before 4.1.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747M
If Samsung is announcing the availability, it means the carriers have already tested it and are ready to release it. It may be all of them, it may only be one or two to start, but some Canadian Galaxy S III owners should get the upgrade notice on Monday.

they said 'it will be available as an ota update on monday' meaning that it's already been tested my carriers. and it doesn't take a week for carriers to test it, more like months and months with the snail pace they usually go by. the update's been out for months internationally, and weeks for tmo and sprint.can't wait for google now! missed it coming from my nexus s

I hope that Bell will add support for HD Voice in this release! They support the Note II after all.

There is a hardware dependency for this. IIRC, the GS3 does not have a wideband receiver.

hahah trying not to laugh.... but waiting for AT&T to get 4.2.x? that's a long way...consider we have yet to get 4.1.2 (not premium suite)
ICS was pushed out on the Skyrocket and SGS2 a few weeks before the GS3 came out and JB was pushed out to the GS3 a bit after the Note 2
Safe to assume June or July to correspond to the price drop when the GS4 comes out. Sell phones with 4.2 stock...then again I don;t see the skyrocket getting 4.1 anytime soon and the i777 never will (except thanks to SHOstock's awesome ROM)
I had to give up on AT&T's updates after waiting a year to get Froyo back when I got my Captivate. Samsung got the updates out quick enough, but AT&T sat on them for months on end. T Mobile and Verizon both got their updates way before mine ever came. That's why, as a Christmas gift to myself, I jumped ship and went the custom ROM route. I understand it's not for everyone and many ROMs out there are not for daily use, but with Cyanogenmod I was getting the new versions of Android just a few weeks after they were released, and now I'm on ParanoidKANGdroid running 4.2.2.
I do hope that one day AT&T gets their act together with updates. Until then...
