Depends if you have a yakju device or not

He has a takju.

I did a manual update using the google images. The device is a Yakju.
So what would be the reason it sidnt get the updayes via Ota?

As it is an engineering sample chances are it will be a mixture of different versions of hardware and not as good as a retail handset. I'm surprised that Google/Samsung have allowed one into the wild. It has probably been lost or stolen. Imo.
Eta As a prototype phone it almost certainly will not get any ota updates.

Why didn't my Nexus receive the 4.0.4 OTA? (GSM)

I thought Google rolled it out to all devices recently. Is it because I'm using it on AT&T?

Updates are rolled out in batches. Not everyone gets it at the same time. It has nothing to do with your carrier.

Your carrier has nothing to do with you receiving the OTA. Are you on a "yakju" device? Or does it have a different software version?
Yeah make sure you have the "yakju" version of the galaxy nexus . That one is updated by Google. Use the app gnofficialupdatechcker.

No it won't. Unlock the bootloader. Change to yakju then relock the boot loader.

Yakju/Takju are the builds Google pushes the updates too, these are generic builds with pretty much no language packs. Yakjxxx builds are the localized builds which Samsung is believed to push the updates to, although most of these builds are still behind on update for example yakjuux is still on 4.0.1.

If you unlock boot loader, then flash to yakju, then relock the boot loader, Samsung wouldn't notice anything. Also don't use toolkit. Yes it's easier but you should use cmd so you and understand commands. This can be useful when you have problem with your phone

Wrong forum, questions regarding the Galaxy Nexus have to be HERE
There are several threads for information about flashing, upgrading, using different methods, expecially for the galaxy nexus.

4.1 for non-yakju devices...

Did anyone on non-yakju device received the 4.1 OTA........??
I'm pretty sure no one did or else pigs would be flying
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
Just flash to takju or yakju... it's just much better

Nothing for yakjujp yet...

Yakju never received 4.2?

Has everyone gotten it? I googled it and it seems back in November it got pushed out. My girlfriends yakju just never got it. We've checked for updates many times and Idk why. Any reasons why? Or anyone know how we can get it?

I got it fine. Are you sure its yakju not yakjuxx etc?
Sent from my A100 using xda app-developers app
Not sure. What does that mean if it is? And how do we find out? It is the white nexus if that makes any difference.
Sent from my SCH-I535 using xda app-developers app
Open Google Maps, go to Settings>About and it should say the build in there. If it's NOT yakju then it's a Samsung-supported device and they OK the OTAs not Google
Thats what we thought before. So how is that going to affect the update? How do we get it?

it is.
Looking at your signature you've not got a yakju unit as the model would be GT-i9250

I believe there is a method of conveying a non-yakju device to yakju. There is a guide in this forum on another thread.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
Yes, I had converted my non yakju to yakju. It can be easily done. Just head on to the Development area and have a look at the stickies.
I think you have the Verizon or sprint version? That'll be why. You can not convert them, you'll risk bricking your phone.

Really guys? I said its my girlfriend's phone. I'm posting from my Verizon galaxy s3 asking about her phone. So yes my signature says I535. She has an unlocked gsm galaxy nexus (white) running on t mobile's network. We bought it and out of the box it had ics we upgraded to jb and still waiting on 4.2. At this rate it looks like vzw will even get it before this one. Which is kind of pathetic. Anyone have any info on updates to "samsung controlled devices"?
Easier to just covert to yakju and be done with it

Is there a way to do it with a Mac? Or could someone link instructions? That would be greatly appreciated. We need to root first and unlock. Anybody have instructions to do that on a Mac? Is there a one click out there?
Edit: spelling
Read the sticky on going back to stock in General, the factory images from Google work in Windows, Mac and Linux

Is there a root method in there for Mac? Or is that just for flashing the yakju firmware? I can't find something that works out how to root on Mac

1. Flask yakju image
2. Flash CWM/TWRP
3. Flash the SuperSU ZIP

I found a mac toolkit. I'll use that. Anyone got a link to the yakju software? Do I flash it like I'd flash anything else? Roms, apps, ect.. is it a zip?
