Is 4.2 OTA out for toro VZW GN? - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

Or do I have to flash it manually? If so, is there a place I can find a perfectly stock version, un-tweaked with the original kernel, etc? Thank you in advance.

There is no OTA for 4.2 for any CDMA Nexus. You can flash a stock 4.2 ROM either in the Development section or on the rootz site.

Toro probably won't see an OTA for several months, if at all. VZW might be on the ball with this update and we'll get one by Christmas, but I'm not holding my breath

"If at all". Really? We already got JB 4.1 first before even Verizon's own Droid line up. Sure, we wait a bit longer for an official OTA, but we're still one of the first to get it.

I only mention it because the fire sale they had on the GN's really makes it seem like VZW is trying to get rid of their stock and move on. I admit that was pretty overly negative thinking, but I don't have much faith in big corporations.

Thanks for the responses. Any recommendations for a pure stock 4.2? I believe I saw an AOSP 4.2 in the development forum, but I figured it was tweaked around.

MMuzzy's and mwalt2's ROMs are both apparently working quite nicely. I'm on mwalt's myself and have had no problems. Everything right now is basically stock because there's just not been enough time to monkey with things.

I recommend Jake's JellyBelly rom. It's on RootzWiki, though.

I'm running MMuzzy's ROM and there's nothing tweaked about it. Works smooth.

Gift Nexus Preview OTA Dump?

Hi,
Someone here who's going to get one of the gifted Nexuses with the preview JB ROM on them and wants to dump the ROM for us?
Would be very nice and I think there are some people who'd love to flash it.

I came to XDA to post this question, if those phones came pre-loaded with JB 4.1.
They didn't come preloaded BUT Google said they will be prompted to upgrade to the Preview Jelly Bean update within minutes.
Okay, so it's almost pre loaded ;-)
Which is even better so we can just grab the zip and don't need to pack the ROM.

That's even better... as it allows someone to just grab the OTA (preview) upgrade from the device!
will this only be for people who like to poke around with new stuff? or will it possibly be stable enough to use every day?
I'm on a Verizon Nexus and want JB now!
So any news on a dump? I came here to ask this exact question after I realized all the Gift Gnex devices were getting Jelly Bean :O

GNEX Jelly VZW/CDMA
Considering this leak is more than likely from a phone intended for a GSM carrier like TMobile or ATT, is it safe to say my VZW/CDMA GNEX will not be flashable, even with toying around with the radio?

I don't think this is an epic fail at all. It seems like there is a 26 day turn around time from testing to roll-out. If anything remains consistent, I'm hoping we see jelly bean sometime mid august.

The leaked version is FG01, its the exact same file they'll start pushing out. Using it with ODIN would be the same. That said, some people just want to wait for an ota, and that's OK too.

Never a good idea to accept an ota when rooted and rom'd. This is especially true if your ROM is JB and you accept an ICS ota. It is still fresh in the community's hands but rest assured anything of value from this small update will be integrated into community ROMS.

The official radio was posted on July 16 out of the FG01 by Sextape. Initially he didn't want to release the full FG01 so he just did the radio, but after a few days changed his mind and released the whole enchilada. So, if you head to that link you can grab just the radio if that is all you're interested in.
no one should be including radios in roms.
and there was a cwm flashable zip of the radios made teh day they leaked
Is there any advantage to flashing that radio? I'm on the jellin Rom, with fd02 radio.

Unfortunately it says the the report wasn't confirmed by Samsung, and it also says that its still gonna have to go through the carriers... dunno how att is because I'm new but I know vzw is a huge Hassel when it comes to pushing through any upgrades. Hopefully the code Samsung wrote form its handset gets leaked though because then we will have the capability to flash it without waiting for carrier approval.

Despite the fact that it's not really official (no Samsung confirmation) it's still good news. I doubt this would be an invented news, there's gotta be some truth behind it... now as for the carriers' part in this, that's another matter!
I'm waiting for two things, first, the inevitable leaks, and second, the kernel sauce.

My theory is that the Jelly Bean leak since is actually a Sammy leak and is still being worked on by Tmobile and AT&T uses the almost the same kernel both d2 the devices. The new jelly bean leak has LTE settings in it meaning that you can set AT&T LTE/PTA APN settings and use 4G LTE in theory. Their are risk because the leak contains a new baseband, you can always reflash back to an older baseband though so this is not the biggest deal. The update does not include a new bootloader so no worries their. And you can always flash back to ICS. In my mind this may be worth fixing up a few files to see if it works. I'm going to give a try. I'll report back.
Looking forward to what you uncover drew

The system and everthing seems to copy over fine, it's the kernel that's giving me trouble right now. I'm going to work on it some more and see what I can find out, but by that time I'm sure an AT&T version will be out.
I'm still working on it and will continue.
What about using ktoon's or faux' JB kernel in the meantime?

Confused about going to JB

Hi guys. all these threads and stickies about JB are confusing me.
I am not an expert at installing ROMs, but I do have my phone withÇ
-AOKP Milestone 5 (maguro),
- clockworkmod (not sure what version)
- FrankoKernel.(milestone 2)
- su.zip
And I do have ADB from Galaxy Nexus Tookit, so I did backup everything!
I would like to go to JB, still have Root access. Not sure if I should go to AOKP, its fast and good on battery usage, but been a pain for acquiring 3g data...seems I have to put it in airplane mode and back to normal to get data on 3g working.
So, I am thinking of going stock JB from Google that way I get updates from Google themselves.
Where should I start?
Thanks
If I were you I would flash a stock rooted jb rom version JRO03C that is the Google factory image one and see if you like it. Aokp is just doing nightlies now and they may not have the stability you are looking for yet.

You could also try a rom created with JB source, like CM10.
No need for the OTA updates from Google if you've got a ROM running.

I don't think that the op flashes roms very often, so I'm assuming that they want something completely stable which means cm10 is not an option yet.

I wonder the same while the roms here are good they run on a universal aosp code Toroplus isn't a part of it. They should update it with ota which seems to be newer but in any case built specifically for it and thus optimized

The Sprint JB OTA had different binaries which I believe most Toroplus JB ROMs have already incorporated. CM10 has, for sure. The ROMs were already JB so when the OTA came out the only thing to update was the binaries and the radio if you hadn't already flashed sextape's leak.
You were asking about Paranoid Android in the thread. If you flash the nightly that gangsterjoop compiled it contains the updated binaries.
Also, have respect. If you don't like a ROM, fine. But don't say it's "not very good". At the very least give specifics about where it could be improved.
