Hey all, I'm new Samsung Galaxy Nexus User so I need little bit help, hope someone can help me!
I I have bought Samsung Galaxy Nexus Android 4.0.1 ICS and I updated it to 4.0.2 in about phone section in settings! and it does not find newer update for it!
Is there any official update.zip for 4.0.2 to update it to 4.0.3?
I bought this phone from Finland and it's not Verizon 4G LTE phone!
If I update it to 4.0.3 then can I keep my apps and all other? (dalvik vm must cleaned..?)
and Does 4.0.3 have Estonian language?
(I don't want to brick that phone so that's why I am asking help..
+ why Gameloft games is not working on Galaxy Nexus? /:
and what is the best and most stable + newest kernel for Galaxy Nexus?
Thanks if someone can help me!
The latest OTA from Google on the GSM Nexus is 4.0.2, hope that helps!
If you want 4.0.3, you'll have to go the custom rom route.

Yes, it is a known fact that rooting requires you to "oem unlock" you phone... which clears all the data on the phone, including the internal storage... hope you read that before proceeding...
4.0.3 was never published as an official update...
Not everyone got/gets the 4.0.4 OTA update...
And if you have the CDMA Galaxy Nexus... all updates will come from Google by they will be co-branded by Verizon (i.e., they will have Verizon proprietary files needed for CDMA/LTE)... so you cannot get an "official" ICS update without Verizon involved...
Hello!
I had a quick question about selecting the correct radio for the Galaxy Nexus GSM. I am trying to flash yakju on my device (currently on yakjukr) and the radio included in the zip file I downloaded was maguro i9250xxla02. I wanted to make sure that the radio was compatible for my uses. I'm using the Nexus in South Korea, and wanted to make sure there won't be any problems flashing this radio on my phone.
If there will be a problem, is there a directory or list of compatible nations/phones? In the case that I do have to flash a korean radio(?) will it be compatible with yakju, or only yakjukr? Also I understand that if I flash the incorrect radio I may have problems with future OTA updates (I really want jelly bean ). Will the xxla02 radio present any problems for future updates? if so, is there a list of OTA friendly radios somewhere out there?
Sorry that there are so many questions, but any helpful replies will be GREATLY appreciated. I've received so much (and speedy!) help from this forum before.
Thank you.

All GSM GNex radios are compatible on all GSM GNex devices. Some may work better than others for you personally, but you won't damage anything by trying a bunch of them to see which is better for you.

Awesome. One more question: Does the radio use have any effect on when you receive OTA updates? for example If i have yakju flashed while using the radio KRLB1, would I receive jelly bean mid july like all the other yakjus? or a few weeks later with yakjukr. and I'm assuming from your answer that yakju is compatible with all nexus gsm radios?
Thanks efrant! I've actually been pouring over your HOWTO flash guide for this process.

The update depends on the build (i.e., yakju), not the radio. However, the update will not install if you are not using the corresponding radio. When the updates start to roll out, just flash the xxla2 radio if you are not using it, and the update will install.
Yes, all radios are compatible with yakju.

Thanks so much for the suggestion.
Can I just ask one last thing? (you guys are great). quantitatively, is there a way to measure good signal and data strengths? my status says -81dBm 15 asu. what do these numbers mean? and is referring to purely cellphone signal or 3G data speeds as well?
Hi guys. I'm from Brazil and the Galaxy Nexus is named Galaxy X around here, but it's the usual GSM thing that is out for AT&T. Anyway, I'm running stock ICS (4.0.2) and I checked Internet and discovered that several people are already running Jelly Bean due an OTA update by Google. But when I check if there are any updates on the phone, it just tells that it is updated. My question is: is it alright or I am missing an update? Should I root and use CM10? Will it take too long to get stable? Thank you, greetings from Brazil!
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.cbruegg.officialupdate try this and tell us what is says
A little info. You could flash a Google stock image or choose one of the numerous custom ROMs available, only you can deside which is right for you.

Only yakju and takju builds of GSM Galaxy Nexuses are updated by Google, Galaxy X has a yakjuvs build and is updated by Samsung. Samsung promissed end of August as a deadline for JB on yakjuvs (no 4.0.4 for yakjuvs).
If you don't want to wait, there are a ton of tutorials explaining how to flash a factory image, just get the jelly beans factory image and do it, but, be aware that you will loose all data in your phone (and by all, I mean ALL data, including "sdcard" data). If you don't want to lose all your data, cross your fingers and hope that Samsung deliver what they've promissed...
If you still need to ROOT and are worried about losing your data you can use the Wug's Galaxy Nexus Root Toolkit.
Hello all. I appologize for the silly question, or if it has been asked before, but here it is.
I just picked up a Galaxy Nexus online, brand new and unlocked. I got it, popped in my Virgin SIM, have it all ready to go and synced with my Google account, but I am stuck on ICS.
Here as some specs:
Android Version: 4.0.1
Baseband Version: I9250UGKK7
Kernel: 3.0.1-ge2433f2 [email protected] #1
Build Number: ITL41D.I9250UGKK7
If I go to System updates for the OTA update, it tells me that the sustem is up to date.
Is there any way to get the official update for my Nexus?
Also, the device is not rooted, and does not have an unlocked bootloader.
Please let me know, as I am very interested!
Thank you!

The GSM version of the Gnex is sold with different software variants in the although all look almost the same.
Only the Takju and Yakju variants are updated to Jelly Bean and that update is offered directly by google. All other variants (yakjuxw, yakjuxx and others) are updated by samsung.
You can, however, flash a yakju or takju factory image from google and then get all the updates fast but that means you'll need to unlock your bootloader, and flash that image. That will result in a complete wipe of your data, including the internal memory (where you keep your music, photos and so on). Make a backup and read the threads here in the forum.
Cheers!

Just to add to his statement, Canadian variant is yakjuux, which is soon to be updated to jelly bean. However, if you don't like slow update, just flash yakju or takju, didn't hurt to convert to them

Thanks for all the input!
Another question:
What build is UGKK7 and will it ever get a JB update?
Thanks!

UGKK7 is a radio, it is not a build. The build you are running is yakjuux ITL41F.

That is a radio, not a build. And yes, yakjuux will get a update pretty soon... There's already been a leaked version on xda right now (thank you efrant!).
If you are willing to wipe your phone once to unlock your bootloader, I day flash to yakju or takju, since these variants gets the updates much faster than yakjuux variant.

Ah, I see. Thanks a lot!
I guess I will wait and for Samsung releases the JB update for yakjuux ITL41F.
Since you mentioned that someone recieved a JB yakjuux build, then maybe Samsung will release it in a couple of weeks?
Can't wait for it to happen soon!

Even though Google devices are kings in the Android world, WHY THE H£LL DOES GOOGLE F-UPS ALL OF THEIR NEXII!?!?!?!?
Is it hard to say, "WE ARE GONNA BE IN CHARGE OF UPDATES!!! SO SHUT UP VERIZON, SPRINT, CANADIAN CARRIERS, AND EVERYONE ELSE FOR THEIR OWN BUILDS & CARRIER CONTROL!!!!"
The only success seems to be the Nexus 7 since they can't run on a carrier, leaving it with only one version of the OFFICIAL software.

If I have helped you.... hit that sexy thanks button. ^_^

I agree with you on Google and Samsung messing up on the variants... Really stupid of them if you ask me, but I personally can care less cuz we could always convert it.

Hello Guys!
I am new on this forums, actually, this is my first post, so to start of with, I want to say this to you all; Hello everybody!
I don't know if this question have been asked / answered before, but I searched for it in the search bar, and I didn't find anything, so.. I've been wanting to install a ROM on my Galaxy Nexus for a while, and I found a pretty cool looking ROM in here, which I decided to download. I haven't rooted my phone or anything yet, but I will do it as soon as I get this question answered, and my question is; If I root, and install a ROM on my Galaxy Nexus, will I still receive the 'official Android updates' from Google? Or do I have to remove the ROM, to receive the new updates?
Kind regards

First of all, hello!
I'm assuming that the ROM is custom ROM? If so, then you won't receive the over-the-air (AKA. OTA) update from Google.
If you're ONLY rooted, then you get a OTA from Google
In order to get the OTA from Google after you flashed any ROM, follow this guide
You only get the update if you're on the stock factory images. Once you start changing things, you get off of the official update train.

Yup, it's a custom ROM. Ahh okay, thanks for the fast answer! But I don't think I'll need the OTA updates anyways, if I get this custom ROM installed, since the ROM gets updated aswell
And again, thank you! I'll save this link, to if I for some reason would want to get the OTA update from Google, after I've installed the ROM on my device.

no, you will not receive google ota updates while being on a custom rom. flash google galaxy nexus factory images (tutorial here) to get them. read also this: some terms and concepts might be familiar, but read the whole thing anyway.
don't use toolkits, no matter what others say, since you still don't know what a toolkit is supposed to be doing (perhaps you won't ever have or feel the need to use one). don't trust odin more than fastboot (there's a reason why fastboot is available, even google teaches you to use it, and it's the only aosp/google supported method besides official ota update process, and not even on the regional variants).
N O, No
