[Q] Q: OTA for 4.2 fails on my Galaxy Nexus during installation why? - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

Hello,
I received 4.2 OTA update to upgrade my Galaxy Nexus from 4.1.2....update downloaded fine...and then performed a reboot of the device to install...during installation, it failed...received the sleeping android with the "Big Red ! triangle'. The phone restarted and the version running was still 4.1.2 ... this has happened 3 times already.
Any idea on why this happens ...and how to get it updated to 4.2 correctly??

You dont have a custom recovery installed as well, then?
How did you unlock the bootloader? (May seem like a pointless question, depending on the op's answer.)
What radio/baseband version do you have installed?

RadioBaseband version: i9250XXLA2
Build: JZO54K
I had unlocked the bootloader via the instructions on the following link - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1626895
and did a return to stock for 4.1 Jelly Bean installation. I did receive the OTA for 4.1.2 and it installed fine without any issues.

JZO54K radio is XXLF1. JRO03C was XXLA2, if i recall it correctly. Explains why no issues were found when upgrading to JRO03C.
JOP40C radio is XXLH1.

I think your baseband should be XXLF1. XXLA2 was an ICS baseband.
XXLA2:
- Standard European baseband
- Originally from the yakju ICL53F factory image and the OTA update (to 4.0.4 / IMM76D from ICL53F)

Sorry...but I still don't understand why i would need to do the manual "return to stock" again...
since my baseband is XXLA2...does that mean OTA 4.2 installtion will never work...till the baseband is updated? If i do follow the steps for return to stock manual update again (which to me is very painful since i m a n00b) ...will the baseband be updated again...?? what happens when 4.2.1 has to be upgraded...followed next yr by 4.3 or 5 (key lime pie)?
are there easy steps to just update the base band??
(pardon my questions...i m learning the hard way not to buy google devices from eBay)

IF the radio is the only issue you can fastboot flash the xxlf1 radio. You will need to follow the first few steps in bk201doesntexist's link to set up the fastboot drivers & DL the platform-tools necessary to flash your device. That post will also serve as agood example of how the fastboot utility works.

Thanks, I got help from general forum..
maybe I flash to yakju build later..

am I missing something :S? imm76k on gsm yakju

Hi,
I can't find out witch version my galaxy nexus is ,
It has to be an GSM international yakju but the
But the build number(imm76k) is for the Verizon cdma,
Judging by the Baseband number(I9250xxla2) it should have the imm76i, but it doesn't .
I had a Samsung galaxy s vibrant before this one so I'm
More or less familiar with android flashing and rooting. But I have no clue on what to do next .I wanted to root it, instal cwm and flash a 4.1 official rom
I searched around the net and the forums but found almost nothing.
IMM76K is the 4.0.4 for the non-yakju variants so you must be running one of those.
If you want the official 4.1.1 you can either flash the takju/yakju factory image for 4.0.4 and wait for the OTA or update to 4.1.1 manually.
OR you can wait until the factory image for 4.1.1 is available and flash that.

Yes, it looks like some devices are shipping with yakju IMM76K. Not sure why, but it seems that they are not getting the update right away. If you just bought your device, best is to just flash yakju JRO03C from Google's site.

yakjujp flash with Factory Images yakju

Hi all,
I just have bought a galaxy nexus, but The device product is: yakjujp.
(I searched in the Internet, but I can't find where is it come from.) If I flashed this device with factory image yakju , is it OK? (can that image work with my phone?) I'm a newbie, please help me.
PS: Why I must do that? because this device still on 4.0.2 and no system update available. I want to upgrade to 4.0.4 and JB in the future
Thanks all,

Will work just fine.
Follow efrant's thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1769301
and after getting to 4.0.4
install the OTA jellybean update or if you cant wait,install CWM and then follow efrant's guide on OTA update using CWM.
And you are set.
I did the same from yakjujp. am now running 4.1.1 stock jellybean,rooted.

There are actually multiple options on this forum that can assist you. Since you labeled yourself as a newby, I'd suggest Mark Skippen's Galaxy Nexus toolkit option (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1392310) . It does all of the steps in efrant's post, but in a easy gui format. I'd recommend efrant's steps if you want to know what goes on behind the scenes and feel pretty comfortable with doing some manual coding.
Good luck!

I don't know. But I flashed nexus S with fast boot and it worked. But galaxy nexus is the first time. I'm not sure anything. If you have experience, please help me
I manually flashed from yakjuux 4.0.1 to yakju 4.0.4 and then received the 4.1.1 OTA immediately afterwards. I had absolutely zero experience with anything of this type and it went smoothly. I read the instructions over a bunch of times before proceeding though. The hardest part was installing the fastboot drivers and I managed to get it to work on the second try. Not very complicated at all.

The extension jp most probably means Japan :cyclops:; It's a localized build for GSM maguro model, released by Samsung, not by Google.
So your first option is obvious - wait patiently for Samsung release of OTA of 4.0.4 or 4.1.1 for yakjujp
I've got OTA upgrade to 4.0.4 for my GN maguro/yakjuwz 2 weeks ago, so at some point your build will be upgraded as well
The option for impatient (most of us, otherwise why would we be looking on this forum in the first place) would be to flash Google OTA build yakju on your phone.
I've found at least few threads on this site describing the procedure, you can find it HERE, but better HERE or HERE
I was thinking about flash using currently not existing option :-(
I've found this great Gnex Toolkit that able to do many wonderful things to all GN models.
IMHO, it can be ultimate tool for all GN models, including those with non-Google build, all the flavors yakju(xx)
It is already have an option "Flash Google Stock Image to phone", which is exactly the option we need
But tool currently supports only Google build yakju and I am too n00b to post my comments in DEV thread

Use the guide that Srirama said in post #2. It is exactly the same process as flashing the Nexus S with fastboot. (The guide just looks long, because I broke it down into very simple steps in the hopes the people might learn something and NOT use toolkits.)

Hey sadboy7489, reply buddy.. did u upgrade?? did u take backup of your stock ROM??
yakju is Google's International GSM version..
yakjujp is for Middle East, Africa and Asian countries - region based
It gets updates from Samsung not from Google..
So yakjujp updates are always delayed because Samsung is responsible for yakjujp version..
Any one can install yakju build on yakjujp because its just a build nothing else ..
so it'll become International GSM version and works in 200+ countries and has additional languages support + regular updates from google..
Even my Galaxy Nexus is yakjujp but I installed yakju 4.0.4 then updated to 4.1.1 :good:
Enjoy !

Gnex i9250xxla2 still no OTA Jelly Bean

I have a Galaxy Nexus with 4.0.4 i am checking every day for an update but nothing there yet, i don't want to flash my nexi with rom i want the custom version. Did anybody get the OTA in the i9250xxla2 Nexus, ore is there any way to install the custom jelly bean in the phone without rom-s and get the stock version.
Try the clean google services trick in app -> all clear the data ?
Also tell us what is the version of the ROM there was an app nexus checker or something similar (GN Official Update Checker).
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1419170 - here you can see if there is a link then there has been a OTA.

You don't have a 'yakju' phone, you have 'yakjujp' - and they've not pushed the JB update yet. You can flash the stock image, though, by using one of the numerous threads on here already
