I go my gnex on Portugal and i cant verify what SoC is inside.
The reason i ask is because i still dint get the OTA notification for 4.2.x so im curious ro know if my gnex as different hardware than the ones on US or UK.
Any feedback would be appreciated. Thks

It has the same processor. Your device isn't one that updates from Google. Follow one of the guides to making it into a Yakju.

Wrong bro, maguro, not manguro.
Tuna = Galaxy Nexus
Maguro = GSM
Toro = Verizon
Toroplus = Sprint
Yakju/Takju is the built of the ROM
Yakju/Takju = GSM
mysid = Verizon
mysidspr = Sprint

Sim unlocked yes. My device wasn't sold here in Portugal, had it shipped down from Germany, i believe.
Wiped google services framework, turn on wifi, check updates, update popped up
You're on yakju? Or yakjuXX?
Check your /system/build.prop, should be under product.name.
Funny, just a few hours ago a work colleague asked me the same question, answer: he's on yakjuxw.

Because Google only OFFICIALLY supports yakju and takju. If you have any other variant, Google doesn't officially support it.

Like geoffcorey said, Google doesn't support any yakjuXX variants, Samsung does.
OP, convert to yakju/takju and forget about yakjuxw.
Sent from my i9250
Edit: IT doesn't matter where you or anybody else buys a GSM model, since it will always be possible to convert to Google supported variants.
Yakju was the first to head out, followed by yakju variants, and only later appeared takju (play store version).

The update is 1Mb and there are certainly not even 100000 people owning a Galaxy Nexus out there.
I'm sorry but Google can handle 10 Gb of download in less than a week.

to my knowledge clean google device. Germany.
still no update.
I remember that I had the same problem with my xoom (US version) with the first update.
Then I read that it would help to register the device on a specific motorola internet site which I did and it worked almost instantly.
But that can't a solution for a google phone.

Uk o2 network. Sim free and no update. Manual update did not work also.
Other than the Yakju issue, is there any difference between the two? I am interested in knowing the hardware difference like the quality of the SAMOLED screen, radio reception, etc And it is possible to flash the Bell one to Yakju just like the other Nexus, correct?
No difference at all and yes the bell version can be flashed to yakju (i did it)

Thank you! So there are no known problems specifically found in the Bell version? I'm still debating whether I should switch to Bell. Are there any rumors that Rogers and Telus will release a better version in January? 32GB internal storage for example?
hmmm there is a diffrent yakju is google the other ones are samsung

Hello all,
I know its a busy time for GNex forum but here i am an upcoming new member who cant wait to join with this...
I am buying a new GNex and i think its the Korean version which comes with an extra battery and a back cover...I just want to know whats the difference between this Korean version and International version?
Also, it has any difference in the firmware and updating of it?? Like updates come later and such
Any help would be really appreciated
Sent from my LG-P500 running ICySnap
As far as i know there are only 3 variants, i9250 (maguro) verizon lte (toro) sprint lte (toroplus) so if its a 3g gnex you're safe.
All Google images should be compatible if it's i9250

Sch are carrier locked and if anything you'd know it's sch if it has dual Sim, or some TV app on it. If I were you ask them to send a screenshot of the settings->About Phone and look at the model number.

Korean versions are 100% maguro, so you can just unlock the bootloader and do whatever you do. Its hardware is the same as international version

Model Number doesn't tell you anything but Galaxy Nexus
The Korean gnex, whether its from sk telecom or from kt, has exactly the same hardware as i9250.
The only difference is that It comes with yakjukr instead of yakju.
I am using shw-m420s (sk telecom variant) with yakju factory image flashed to get earlier ota updates, and it works flawlessly as expected.
