Dear All
I currently own a Galaxy Nexus GSM phone. I bought it here in the UAE from Samsung. I installed the Android Info app, and found that my phone is a yakjup build phone. I am having difficulty getting the update for jelly bean that has already been rolled out nearly 5 months ago. I am wondering if someone can specify a link to an easy guide or specify instructions to follow so that I can change my phone to a build that can receive the updates automatically OTA from Google.
Thanks

In short, your build is still on 4.0.4, if you want 4.2.1 you'll have to change to yakju/takju

Anyone had recieve the OTA 4.0.4 IMM76D in this days? It's seems that is not available anymore...
Anyone knows something? like...when it's going to be available again or if someone got it in this days without using "trick"?
It should be available? Have you tried going to your applications list, selecting all apps and scroll down to "Google Services Framework" and wipe its data? Might have to do that a few times for it to work.
I have read Android 4.0.4 is currently rolling out via an over-the-air update to Galaxy Nexus phones. The Android version of my Galaxy Nexus is currently 4.0.2. I have been checking for a new version over the past weeks through:
Settings / About Phone / System updates / Check now
but it has always being saying that "my system is currently up to date". Is it normal I didn't get the 4.0.4 version yet? Is there maybe anything else I need to do to "activate" it?

They halted the IMM76D update because it has radio issues. That's why there's a new OTA to IMM76I that fixes the issues. Chances are they'll just resume it and push people straight from 4.0.2 to IMM76I.

Read above. Also, if you're not a "yakju" device, you probably aren't getting it yet either way right now.
My sprint gnex came with version 4.0.4 build IMM76D.

Cool story?
Hi
I purchased my Galaxy Nexus when it first launched back in November from Handtec, the current firmware on my device is version 4.0.2. But for some reason it does not get the notification for OTA updates. I understand from reading the forums that the current version is 4.0.4 and that was pushed over two weeks ago. My device has not gotten the notification to update, I tried the framework suggestion that was suggested on another thread but I got no result I also tried the "check in" code and had no luck. My current carrier is AT&T, is my Nexus defective? Can somebody please help?
Thank you

If your phone is anything but yakju then your in for a wait. Also the 4.0.4 roll out has stopped until google fixes the signal issues some people have.
How can I identify if my phone is a yakju ?

Dude please read a bit. This exact thread exists every single day of the last week.
Check your version with this: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.cbruegg.officialupdate
But the thing is that even if it is "yakju" (updated by Google). The 4.0.4 update has been stopped because it causes radio-related signal drop issues for some users. They recently issued a small 4.0.4 "fix" for it. Once things are sorted out, presumably 4.0.2 users will get moved straight up to the latest 4.0.4.
I'm not new to Android, just knew to the Galaxy Nexus/Stock Android World. I ordered one from NewEgg before learning many are receiving unlocked DoCoMo units, not true factory unlocked i9250's. Made a bit nervous!
Got it in yesterday and luckily the sticker in the battery cavity says i9250 and IMEI's match just fine. Once signed into the phone I received an OTA update to 4.0.2.
However, the update said this was an update direct from Samsung, not Google? So my question is, is that normal or do I have a Samsung build and not the Google Yakju build?
I'm honestly not sure how you know if you have Yakju or not. Here is what I have under "About Phone"
Model Number
Galaxy nexus
Android version
4.0.2
Baseband version
I9250XXKK6
Kernel version
3.0.8-gaaa2611
[email protected] #1
Build number
ICL53F.I9250XWKL2
Thanks in advance!
Check your build.prop, that'll tell you if you have yakju or not
there is an app in the market to detect which device build u have
GN Official Update Checker

Install GN Official Update Checker or Android System Info. You will be able to check it.
Thanks for the help!

Build # ICL53F.I9250JPLA1
Please let me know if i need to manually update it or do i need to stay calm n wait for the update?
Any further sources will be helpfull.

I gave up with OTA's takes too long. I usually just wait until someone has a stock update zip and just do that. Im on 4.0.4 now and so far so good! Hope that helps.
Please refer to my post here and it'll answer your question
You could wait but that would be an indefinite timeframe OR you could just flash the stock yakju images (I'm not sure if you can do this if you are using CDMA though). If you're on a CDMA network, you might have to wait for your carrier to update it.
Hey man. This "Problem" has been fixed a few times already around the forums here.
You will most likely have the "samsung-updated" version of the galaxy nexus. I had that to.
There are a few types of Stock Roms on the Galaxy nexus right now.
- The stock ROM powered and updated by google (also known as Galaxy Nexus with yakju builds)
- Other ROMS that are powered and updated by Samsung or your cellphone provider
This basically means that you live in a place were not all functions accessible to Android are available (government rules) or you got a phone from such a batch by accident.
- What you need to do is unlock your OEM (you can re-lock it after the change to keep your warranty).
- Wipe your complete phone so it can become a dev phone (the OEM unlock) your phone does this by itself on unlock.
- Flash an official ROM from Galaxy Nexus itself.
- Re-lock the OEM again (or not. I have it unlocked and my phone still works)
- update if you haven't flashed the newest version (normal updates).
Your phone will be a Google Powered phone after that!
Here the instructions on how to do it:

Hello:
Thanks for the info. I have a google nexus phone with the problems described in this thread. I have a question before I try to go through the steps outlined in the instructions. When you say "Your phone will be a Google Powered phone after that", does that mean that the google nexus phone will be able to get updates over the air and become like google nexus phones from the play store.
Any info on this will be appreciated.
Again thanks.
Hello everybody,
I own a Samsung Galaxy Nexus and since the 4.2 Android update was available I checked my updates and it doesn't show up where my friend's nexus 4 got it immidiately.
My question is, what's the potentional causes of this, and could updating from the computer solve this (also how do we update from the PC, I am really new to the Android world) ?
Thanks a lot.
Follow this guide.
Note that if you have the Verizon version there's no official 4.2 available as of yet, head over the development section to grab a 4.2 ROM instead.

If you have the VZW nexus, you won't get it. It has already been pushed out to the other ones.
Actually, this guide is the one to update incrementally with: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1419170.
Also, you could adb sideload your update, if you're fully stock, google it from android police, i believe...
