Which Phone do I have? IMM76K: no 4.1.1 updates working)

Hi all,
I just received a new GNex from Vodafone Australia. Can someone please help me figure out which version I have so I can update it?
I am running 4.0.4 (rooted)
The Baseband is:
I9250TDVLE1
The build is:
IMM76K.I9250TDVLE1
I could not find an update on google anywhere...
I found reference to my build pertaining to Toro, Magro and Verizon.
I can't see how all of these could be simultaneously true...
I thought '**** it' I ll roll back to a yakju 'official' 4.0.4 IMM76I ROM from here and then flash the Update to 4.1.1 JRO03C
But When I booted into CWM and tried to flash the imm76i, it would not let me. Is there something I am doing wrong or do not understand about swapping roms...?
(I cleared the cache / factory reset)
Am I stuck with IMM76I until google makes an 4.1.1 update, or can I flash another google rom somehow and get the update that way?
Cheers

That's because the package you downloaded on Google's Developers website needs to be flashed using fastboot, not CWM. Follow this thread to flash back to yakju, and you should be good to go.

Did this work for you? as i have the same phone and im tempted to do this but not if its going to mess the phone up. Damn you vodafone for having to be different

It would definitely work however if you even need to return your phone back to Vodafone, you may or may not run into some issues due to not being on their ROM. It's pretty hard to find random stock ROMs for places other than the main ones these days (or I just might be looking at the wrong places).

I'm sorry, I can't remember what I did, but I fixed it that night, which now feels like months ago.
I installed Nexus Root Toolkit v1.5.2, on a pc and I know that that helped me speed up the process.
You can't ruin anything unless you flash a rom not designed for the phone, or format the bios partition and then reboot (with out installing a new bios), but even then I'm sure you can install stuff from a pc over usb using that program.

Thanks New to Android as I have been an avid iOS user and jailbreaker for a few years so just catching up on rooting and flashing ROMs n stuff. But good to know it can be done as i Have the exactly same phone from Vodafone Australia. Better to be safe than sorry and ruining a 2 day old phone.

No worries mate, this is my 2nd android phone (first was a nexus s).
I learned a lot by rooting and playing with custom roms on that ph, but I have been really happy with stock jelly Bean on this (albeit rooted) device. Battery life is great, and it's a snappy phone with great features.
FYI I just read an interesting article Why Apple Won't Divorce Samsung today that explained how Samsung make all the chips for Apple products. You can't go wrong with Samsung mate.
Android users on this forum are generally friendly and Damn knowledgeable too.
Enjoy your new phone!

OK. The fact is that Vodafone and Telstra get all their updates later. This is because of the better 3g signals they have built in the phone. So due to this their updates come out a little while later. Also it depends where you are in the world (eg. UK, AU, USA) because the UK has already got the update as far as I know. So there is two options here to stay with Vodafone if something does go wrong so you have a backup. And referring to what Unlawful had said he is right you do need a stock Vodafone ROM or features and such can go wrong. BTW I am also with Vodafone but running a custom ROM.

Thank mate. I updated it manually, months ago.
The Gnex is an awesome phone (I upgraded from a NEXUS S), and with stock jelly Bean (rooted) with stock kernel it runs smoothly and is stable.
I miss rge Wolfson audio chip of the nexus s though bc audio recordings are terrible and crackling with the gnex.
Fast charge is something that I now need and otherwise I'm satisfied!

[Q] 4.1.2 JZO54K Won't OTA to 4.2 But Another GN Will?

So I have a small question...
I have a Galaxy Nexus, had it since day 30 or so. Updated OTA many times and rooted every time, using the stock ROM so everything is perhaps more simple.
The lady friend has also got a GN. Her phone downloaded the OTA update and is now bugging her to install. She purchased her phone only a couple of months ago. We're on the same build number but my GN won't see the update to 4.2.
Is there a reason for this? Did Google pull the update once they have figured out the December bug and haven't yet fixed it?
I am a little worried as I used the Galaxy Nexus Toolkit to root my 4.1.2 phone but as the toolkit wasn't updated, I used the settings for 4.1.1. I am certain I did this to my partners phone too, but that is the only thing I can think of as to why I haven't got the update.
I'm not totally desperate for it, but just wondering why.
Thanks

Nobody really knows (afaik) how Google decides which Nexus devices get OTA updates first. I'm pretty sure it has nothing to do with how 'old' your device is though. And having root won't affect the OTA update, don't worry. You do need stock recovery though.

Stock recovery?
I don't have anything like CWM installed. My phone is completely stock apart from rooted
Might try re-rooting using the Toolkit as my phone version (just in case) and then just wait I guess. Just a shame it won't see the update as I would have thought once they set the server to show there is a new version, all devices would see it... just like Windows Update for instance.

Man up and do it the right way..

Sprint SG3, ROM is 4.1.2.

Alright folks, bear with me here...this one is odd because I've searched and all the SG3 references for 4.1.2. are custom ROM's. I was having some wonky issues with my Stock Rooted SG3 so I rolled it all the way back using the STOCK ICS version of the SG3 ROM for LP710. After I rolled it back...I freaked out because although the phone was fine, calls could be made, texts came in and all other functionality was good, however, I was getting a "SIM CARD NOT FOUND" message on my notification pane constantly. I was worried I had taken the stock ROM for the wrong carrier.
Instead of flashing it to the newest JB version of the sprint stock ROM...I chose to let it take the updates, see what happens. All in all I believe the phone took 4-5 updates total...and when it was all said and done, about halfway through the updates the sim card issue was gone. But then after I rooted it...I was using it a few hours and I realized some things just seemed different. So i grabbed my wifes SG3...completely stock non rooted phone. I noticed FIRST off that her version of JB was 4.1.1 and MY version is 4.1.2.
Did I miss something? What is Sprints latest ROM version for our SG3's? I've tried updating HER phone and it says it's "UP TO DATE" on ver. 4.1. What gives, anyone know what's up?
***EDIT*** I DID find some mention of 4.1.2 showing up on some Sprint users in diff. locations, but if I got it, why has my wife's phone not gotten it. Anyone else seeing this in Az. or otherwise? I also loaded up Kies and it says "your devices current firmware version is not supported to update firmware via Kies." WTH? All the updates were OTA updates...

The latest version of SG3 for Sprint is MB1 (v4.1.2). I don't really have a good answer to why your wife's phone hasn't been getting the OTA updates (there have been 2 since LJ7: MA6 and MB1). If I recall correctly, MA6 was the one that brought you up to 4.1.2.
If you want to bring your wife's phone up-to-date, you can always flash the "purely stock files" over on Freeza's thread. You'd have to flash the updates starting at her version and each subsequent one (i.e. LJ7_to_MA6 before flashing MA6_to_MB1).
Hope this helps!

Thanks for the speedy response topherk. Well, I figured it had to be legitimate and I saw updates behave this way back when I was on my EVO....but it not being supported in Kies kind of worries me.

My wifes gs3 has yet to get the update either. As far as the sim card issue i know that was a probably a while back with rooting, haven't seen much on the issue in 3-4 months.

Interesting...worth noting is that although my version is 4.1.2, I don't seem to have the reported functionality (such as multi view page buddy, etc) and a few other things. ?????

Ahh, ok Kenny, thanks good to know... I guess I'll just hang out with this build for a while and see what gives. I noticed that when I have the keyboard up, i can tap the T/Pencil icon and I can spell like on a tablet w/stylus. I don't remember being able to do that before. (reminds me of Palm O.S. although the Palm writing style doesn't work here)

Discussion about Stock 4.2.2 for S3 i747

I just wanted to start a conversation about what people are hearing about when a Stock Rom 4.2.2 for the i747 might be released to the public or even leaked out would be nice.
Rumors and/or conjecture is welcome...

there is plenty of articles out there.. here is one:

Yeah I knew they were 9300 guessed I should have mentioned that. And yeah they should have the same features. I'm sure AT&T will take their sweet time releasing theirs but I guess Thank God for the devs maybe it won't be as long.

4.2 Officially Out For Rogers S3's
Just got a text message from my carrier (Rogers) that Jelly Bean 4.2 is offically out for my S3 and I can update OTA from them. See the attached photo for proof.
I'm currently running a custom ROM and have no intention of updating. Just wanted to spread the word that it's out at least on my carrier and likely the other Canadian 'M' variants of the i747.

Haha no freaking way man . have you checked for the actual update and read the details ? I pray its actually the 4.2 update . anyone else have any info?

An official text message from my carrier about the 4.2 update is more than promising. It's sounds pretty official to me. I don't know if it's 4.2.1 or 4.2.2 until someone actually does the update. For me to revert back to stock to get the update isn't possible right now. I just don't have the time. I will at some point in the future do the update though to take advantage of the updated bootloader and other under the hood firmware.
I'm running CM10.1 right now which requires bootloader LK4 so an update for me would break my ability to flash the latest nightlies. Until the assertion gets updated, I'm going to hold off.

I'm on Rogers in Canada
I was doing some maintenance on my SD card, backing up the contents to my local PC and then formatting it in Android, in prep to do a few other unrelated things, when I came across this thread. I saw the user's post above about Rogers texting about the 4.2.x update so I quickly ran off and tried to update via "Software Update". I received the "device is modified, FU jerkface!" prompt, so I rebooted into recovery, wiped, and planned to restore my TWRP stock/unrooted ROM. However I forgot that I had not restored the contents of my SD card back to the device before doing the factory reset in TWRP, so now I'm stuck with a GS3, no OS, no SD card and no way of fixing it until I redownload everything manually..
So, now I'm downloading the official 613MB file and have Odin ready and waiting, and the phone in download mode. I'll restore the 4.1.1, and then check software update before rooting (so it doesn't ***** about being 'modified') and confirm back here which version it is, and if it's a network wide update or something else.. stand-by!

Sorry about your SD card.. But it was for a good cause ! Haha thanks man excited to hear the results

I have a Galaxy S3 with Rogers as well but did not get a text message. I'm not rooted and on stock Android 4.1.1. which I did via the Rogers OTA update a while ago. Just tried checking for the 4.2 OTA update but got a message that says "The latest updates have already been installed".

As of 4:07PM EST in Toronto, Ontario Canada, The software update tool in settings says that 4.1.1 is the latest release for my phone.

I got a message saying a 4.2 update was available for me but my wife never got one

Seems like it's being rolled out in phases.. wonder what the criterion is?

That would be great, thanks! I was about to root and install a custom rom, but if I can get 4.2 OTA then I'll just wait it out. Surprised that's it's being rolled out to S3 owners so quickly. Felt like I had to wait forever for 4.1.1.

odin to stock right now , let you know when im done

Kies reports my phone has the latest firmware as well.. 4.1.1

[Q] Question about yakjuux Canadian get OTA updates when being used in the US

I bought an unlocked yakjuux Galaxy Nexus (Canadian) phone that currently has 4.2.1. From what I understand, Samsung is responsible for doing the OTA updates, which I know unfortunately occurs later than the Google ones. I'm using this phone on T-mobile in the United States, and I wanted to ask if this will interfere with me getting any updates, since I'm not using a Canadian service. If not, I'm willing to wait it out. If not, I'm considering flashing takju or yakju. Does flashing these images also change the radio, or is that a separate process? Thanks in advance.

That's actually a separate process as Roms normally only package kernels and even then is optional.
If you search the android development forum you'll find the radio thread and likely find the radio you need to flash. I would link but on mobile.
Also I believe Rhee only difference between yakju and takju is Google wallet. I actually think Google factory brands every phone with any JB stock rom. (Eg. No longer rogers/bell/fido etc boot screen and bloatware.)
So unless you flash manually I'm not sure you'll get OTA because the Canadian OS for me on wind and rogers has only updated to 4.1.2 because of the 4.2 bugs.
EDIT was 4.2.2 but when I got OTA it changed to 4.1.2, I now use the cm10.1 so I'm not much help anymore.

Thanks for the reply. Is there an advantage of me flashing a new radio?
Also, if I understood the last part, I can get OTA updates from my Canadian phone, even though I'm on a US network, but they've delayed the update because of bugs.

No problem! All it really changes is how it deals with reception, any radio can be flashed with any ROM, personally I'd recommend the latest, doesn't destroy your battery as much on 3G anymore.
And it does seem plausible to receive OTA if its not rooted and still on stock because the factory images come from Google now. (International)
But yes that's correct, as far as I know wind (my carrier) has only gone to 4.1.2 my roommate has this same phone officially from wind with 4.1.2 and we just clicked system update saying it's latest.
Rogers may be different however I changed my phone from a rogers gnex to my own little wind gnex
Hopefully you fix your issues!
