Hello everyone! I am on sprint and having a problem. I want to update to jelly bean from rooted ics. The only problem is I tried using qbking77's video and got stuck after the first minute or so because my device has a build number of LG8. So I couldn't continue on. Can I unroot and upgrade to jelly bean and then root using the same method as ics? Thanks so much.

Easiest way is to follow a guide to get you nexus back to stock via fastboot won't take more than 15 minutes get the 4.1.2 images here https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images There are instruction all over xda to achieve this only thing you might have to do is change file names if the guide isn't up to date other than that the commands are the same.

no, the update is failing because you are on a custom rom.
if you want the update, you need to go back to stock and then re-root.
there's a sticky at the top of this forum.

You should not really care much about OTA updates once you have a custom ROM on your device. I can see maybe flashing back to stock if you wanted to sell the device, but for any other updates you should check the ROM you like and just see when it is updated.

What carrier?
tmobile
No official jelly bean yet for tmobile. If you want jelly bean then you have to install custom rom. That involves rooting, installing a custom recovery and flashing.
You have to answer a few questions before you can get a proper answer. What you need to do is give the correct name of your current device, if its the Galaxy Nexus or the Galaxy S3. After that, you would need to let us know the carrier to be directed to the correct part of these forums.

I'm sure I've read in the forums that people have successfully rooted, using Chainfires auto root, you could also use mobile Odin to flash the Rom and keep root that way.
Swyped, from my finger to your face, on my Samsung Galaxy Note II
Yeah, exact same.

Hi guys, 2 Months ago, I upgraded my phone to 4.1.2 Jelly Bean but it has a lot of lagg and it stucks always, so please help me to come back to my old Android version which was 2.3.6 Gingerbread, which was better and smooth. I tried to downgrade it many times, I made the same as I upgrade to 4.1.2 and my phone stucks on a Bootloop, I followed this steps;

And Odín gives me FAIL!, I suppose it is about my "L" Latin version?
Help me please!
Regards
It should be because of the L. Look around in forums i remember theres a guide to downgrade for L-varients. And why don't you flash cm10 instead?
