How to revert back to 4.1.1 yakjuux? - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

Hey everybody, my friend and I both flashed our phones from ICM 4.1.1 to JB 4.2.2. We both got the phones from Fido on a nice PP and my friend wants to revert back to ICM 4.1.1 yakjuux prior to the flash.
We followed the guide on here last weekend, unlocked boot loader, flashed 4.2.2 completely over 4.1.1. I am enjoying 4.2.2 but my friend is having issues with call quality, issues he didn't have before.
I don't think there is a way to revert back easily, but I wanted to clarify with the forum. I tried to search but haven't found a thread on going back to ICM 4.x.x Yakjuux
Thank you kindly!

You can't, there are no official images.
If you have issues with call quality, revert the radio image to the one from 4.1.1, other differences are insignificant. Google Nexus image website, download the yakju image and flash the radio with fastboot (fastboot flash radio radioLF.img).

That was my other question, if I can use the radio file from 4.1.1
Great, I will get him to bring the phone over and we'll try it.
Thanks

Theres 4.1.2 only posted now, can't remember if the radio was changed from 4.1.1, but if it was you might want to search the stickies here on xda for a possible 4.1.1 radio download link.

You CAN revert back to yakjuux. There are at least 3 different threads (2 in General and 1 in Development) that have nandroid backups of yakjuux ROMs. Search and you shall find.
P.S. Thread moved to Q&A -- all questions go in Q&A, not General.

Thank you efrant, I will do my searching now

I'd still suggest you try the radio first and keep up to date with the newer Android version. That's why you bought a nexus nevertheless.

Hello everybody, so after using JB 4.2.2 I have noticed the antenna in certain locations isn't as good as it was and the battery does wear down much quicker.
Regardless, I decided to revert back to Galaxy Nexus Yakju 4.1.2 but ONLY the radio file.
So following efrants guide, I did the following.
-Downloaded from Google developers 4.1.2, unzipped all the contents into one folder.
-I downloaded platform-tools-v16.zip and extracted all the contents of that zip into the folder above that contains the unzipped image files.
-As I locked my boot loader before when I went to 4.2.2, I had to unlock the boot loader.
-then I did the Part D step 7, flash the radio.
-fastboot flash radio radio-maguro-i9250xxlf1.img
-one that was done, I did fastboot reboot to reboot the phone
-Phone loaded up one again.
One observation, its odd but it seems that my phone has been wiped clean, but my wallpaper that I set before doing this is still there. All my text and everything is gone but the wallpaper is there, so I'm not sure what that means exactly.
From those of you that have done this, does it seem like I completed the radio flash-downgrade properly?
I'd like to verify to be certain
Thank you!

Also, is there a way I can verify that I did this properly? like is there a way that I can check what radio file the phone is currently running?

As stated in that thread: unlocking the bootloader wipes all of your data. Your wallpaper is backed up on your Google account (just like your contacts and Wi-Fi settings) and was downloaded when you signed in to your Google account.

Reboot your device in fastboot mode and you will see the radio version there.

Thank you efrant!
This is all new to me but with your instructions it was a massive help through the process.
And I totally forgot that the Google account backups up wallpapers lol

Just tested the fastboot mode...
says baseband is: i9250xxlf1.img, which is the file from 4.1.2
yay now lets see how it will work!

For anybody reading this in the future....I reverted my friends galaxy nexus radio file back to 4.1.2 and the signal issues are resolved. Certain locations of our college were fine with 4.1.1, but with JB 4.2.2 those spots wouldn't get me a strong data sigal. I couldn't pull up basic web sites.
With the radio file from 4.1.2, it is now all better

Thanks OP worked great!
Why would you upload mirrors when Google themselves are hosting the files? Wouldn't it be more reliable to just download straight from Google?
Also, I'm assuming that they'll be updating the recovery images for each official update as well... Meaning your mirrors would be outdated soon anyway. Just a thought.
Thanks anyway though, these will come in useful!
Google's package is compressed in tgz and comes with sh script, also doesnt include fastboot windows.
I put all necessary utils together with a bat script so user can just double click and restore.

I'd prefer the Google Images untouched to be honest.
Guys, a little OT question, but I don't want to open a new thread just for a noobish question:
How could one actually brick the GNex? Is it possible to brick the GNex so serious that it won't even get recognized by fastboot?
If not, it's literally unbrickable. If yes, what would I need to do to brick my phone like that? Just wann know so I can NOT do it
will OTA updates works if i flash this image (assuming i've also cloclwork mod recovery)?

You could do what my idiot brother did to my Nexus S. Format /boot from Clockwork mod (under the storage options I believe) and then turn the phone off. The only way to unbrick it is to send it to Samsung, or the guy on XDA who runs that company that uses JTAG to fix it (which is what I did)

Why would that brick the device? Can't you still get into the bootloader or recovery and flash a new boot image?

Thank you man, a million times. Now I was able to replace Samsung's screw up Stock.
@ zyo will this factory image also work for lte or is this strictly GSM image? I have an issue where neither cwm or adb will restore my stock nandroid and I want a full stock backup just to be safe

[INFO] Docomo Galaxy Nexus (SC-04D) changed to Google Stock

Just FYI to people with the SC-04D. I installed the stock google baseband and ROM images with no problems so far from here:
http://code.google.com/android/nexus/images.html
I had already unlocked the bootloader and rooted my phone with the standard method here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1362957
After you install the radio and ROM images, and it boots for the first time, it might not connect to the cell network. After a reboot, the APNs will show up, and you can select the appropriate one (spmode) in my case.
The major reasons why I decided to do this are:
1) I finally figured out how to backup my radio image, so I wasn't too afraid of installing the google baseband (which is what was preventing me from installing the stock google ROM in the first place, as Docomo has a custom baseband on their phone)... and,
2) I wanted wireless tethering, which is built into the stock ROMs, but sadly lacking in the Docomo version (not to mention I couldn't get the standard "wireless tether" app to work, nor any others)... and,
3) After two previous Docomo android phones (xperia x10 and galaxy s) being slow to receive updates and being completely unable to participate in all the fun modding action going on due to Docomo proprietary ROM stuff, I wanted to break free of Docomo's cage asap!
------------------------
Added working radio image to OP. MD5: 7E54A9306E97FC6F45EB35B392061477
After doing some quick tests, it seems the stock Google radio.img is much slower than the Docomo one. I got around 300-400 kbps downstream with the stock Google radio img, and over 1400kbps with the Docomo one. Upload seemed unchanged (around 400 kbps).
As others have mentioned in this thread, flashing back to the Docomo radio image after applying a stock Google ROM doesn't impair anything about the ROM, as the main missing feature (built-in tethering) remains.
This might be a silly question - but when changing baseband we don't have to worry about going to non-docomo phone rate for flat data ?
I mean that our flat rate plan works as it should, even changing the baseband ?
I'm looking forward rooting mine as well, as I see much more powerful kernels out there..
could you post your original baseband?
I've extracted and trimmed the radio.img as mentioned in this post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1382699
I haven't tested flashing the radio.img however.
MD5 for the trimmed radio.img file is A006C61C0B89ED74D1612D602B719469
I also flashed my device with original Google ITL41D image and one minute after boot, I received a OTA ITL41F update. Don't need root to be able to flash it, just unlocked bootloader. I dumped my radio and system image too and I will try go back to docomo firmware later.

After playing this weekend with ITL41F rom and baseband XXKK1, I notice:
1) ITL41F rom feels faster than Docomo rom.
2) when reboot the phone, XXKK1 baseband take a long time to find network.
3) baseband XXKK1 switches too much between 3G and HSDPA, turning internet connection slower.
4) SC04D0MKKD baseband locks gps faster and more accurate.
I just flash Docomo baseband back and everything is working great (wireless tether include).

Not yet! I flashed Google ITL41D first and got ITL41F OTA update with bootloader unlocked. That's why I think the state of bootloader doesn't matter at all...

i think im just gonna bite the bullet when i go home and flash with the google images... i already have my radio for my region backed up...
So let me get this straight.. What package did you flash? Where did you get the yakju version... code.google.com?
And how did you go about flashing it? Because I would love to keep root and my recovery mod because I have a nandroid backup.
I just maybe need some pointers if you guys can help, I would be grateful.

New Galaxy Nexus owner

Hello all. Well after many many years with Sprint they finally got on my last nerve and now I am a new Verizon customer and a very happy new owner of the Galaxy Nexus. Awesome phone! Anyway my question is I have been told the bootloader of this phone is locked. I have never messed with a phone with a locked bootloader. While I was with Sprint I had the Epic 4G Touch so I am familiar with Odin, CWM, flashing roms, etc. What is the preferred method to altering the Nexus to be able to root, CWM, flash roms? Also what is currently considered by most to be the best rom that leaves the phone with all of its functions working? Thank you in advance for any information you folks can offer.

Unlock the boot loader firstly but beware it will wipe your sdcard.
Use fast boot to unlock it, type oem fastboot unlock and go from there.
Flash cwm using fastboot by typing fastboot flash recovery xxxxxxx.img (xxxxx.img is whatever the filename is)
You are probably familiar with cwm so I won't bother explaining that.
All the rooms here have everything working on them. We'll except sense 4.0 and touchwiz ports etc. But that's obvious.
Ps. All phones have locked bootloaders!
Yeah, you might mean unlocked bootloader. You do have to unlock it first, but it doesn't take an exploit to do so. See here for a starting point:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1400871
As for the best rom, impossible to say, so many . It depends on what exactly you're looking for. aokp is probably the most features-popular, but there are many others. I use cm9 with the reloaded mod, personally.

Options 8 (Extract and Flash Google Factory Stock ROM), 10 (Reflash Stock Recovery [just to be safe]), and 11 (Relock bootloader) will return it all to stock. I know, because I just had to do this to 3 GNex's this past week to send them back to Verizon
Looks like your question was answered, but for me, I used Wugfreshes toolkit to root then to unroot, just click unroot, let it do its thing and then click OEM lock to make it factory.

Only if you are stock and rooted.
He is running a custom rom and kernel and has cwm flashed, that method will not revert them to stock.

[Q] "Restoring" Warranty

Hey guys, it seems like the GPS on my device is broken.
It just won't fix, and on apps like GPS-Test there are no sattelites visible. I tried everything from Removing and Updating AGPS-Data, Turn AGPS off, Update Radios, Return to Stock 4.0.4 but it won't work, so I guess it's broken.
As I already mentioned I installed stock 4.0.4 but got one problem:
My Nexus was a YAKJUXW-Model but currently I'm using the YAKJU Version (4.0.4, IMM76I).
Do I need to return to YAKJUXW if I want to make use of the warranty (Does anyone have expierience with this)?
If so, where can I find a download of the YAKJUXW-Firmware? I remember doing a Nandroid before switching from stock to a Custom-ROM, but I deleted this Backup ages ago.

If you want the yakjuxw images, there is a thread in the dev section (started by josteink) that has a link.
Not sure if it matters if you return it with yakju or yakjuxw.

Btw: They forgot to relock the device ;D

Is jelly bean available in the UK OTA or otherwise

I've searched for an answer for this on google and on here, but can't find one anywhere. apologies if I'm being dim.
I've just bought an unlocked Galaxy nexus of ebay (I9250) and I've put my o2 uk sim into it. I only bought it so I could get my hands on jellybean.
Is it actually available for this handset in the uk ota or otherwise (without rooting)
thanks
currently running 4.0.4
depends on the firmware you are on.
what does the build number say in the about phone section under settings?

yakjuxw is the version you have and i'm pretty sure JB is not out for that version.
the best way to get jellybean on your device is to convert to stock yakju. here is a great guide to converting to yakju: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1626895

Thanks for the fast reply. I got a nexus because I wanted jellybean without any hassle. This method looks pretty intense.
Was there a way to tell if my device would have an update available before I bought it?
what's the difference between yakjuxw & yakju? is it a regional thing?
if i do convert to yakju, will it be like my handset was always yakju (if you get me?)
EDIT: I think i meant is yakju an official google rom

its a very simple process. if you follow the steps as they are and do not skip anything, you will be fine and if you happen to run into any problems, me or efrant can help you if you post in the thread
the difference is regional and yakju is updated directly from google. anything other than yakju, takju (US play store version) and mysid (verizon variant) is updated by samsung
if you convert to yakju, you will notice no difference. the GSM version's hardware is the same across all variants.
So if i do this process, will it just be like I have a "pure" nexus, and i will receive any future ota updates?
also, do i need to root or anything?
I'm stressing a bit because that is what I thought I was getting

you will have a pure nexus and will updates as soon as they are available directly from google
the only thing you will be doing is unlocking the bootloader. this is not the same as rooting, and you can always relock the bootloader for a pure stock look, although having it unlocked does nothing really.
just follow the steps and you will be fine.
sorry for bombarding you with questions.
Does it make a difference if I go for the 4.0.4 (IMM76I) 4.1.1 (JRO03C)?
I'm assuming I'd just want to go straight to 4.1.1

download the yakju 4.1.1 from google (there's a link in the guide) and flash directly to jelly bean.
I'm on mac and there isnt a version of 7zip available. It seems to have unzipped fine with the native osx unarchiver. is that ok?
Ive got the 6 img files.

yes there should be 6.
for all the fastboot commands, you will enter them in terminal and instead of just fastboot, you'll need to start the commands with ./
so it'd be like: ./fastboot flash system system.img

Try 7zX for osx.

Done!! All seems to have worked correctly.
Thanks so much for your help.
is there any way to check that every step worked correctly?
if i want to return the phone (to claim on the warranty etc) would i just have to lock the boot loader?

check the about phone section to look at the build number and android version
yes, and you can do that now if you really want (i dont recommend it unless you really are going to stay 100% stock all the time). the command is: ./fastboot oem lock
am i correct in thinking if i do a factory restore that it wont get rid of jellybean.

Correct. It only removes all data and apps from the phone, including your sdcard

Last question...(probably)
is it likely that the retailer i bought the device from will be able to tell that i installed a new version of the operating system?
I have been having problems with the phone restarting itself randomly. I have read that this is quite a common problem and the hardware most likely needs replacing. but dont want them to think it was me tinkering that has caused this (they specifically asked if id tried to install a custom os)
cheers
yakjuxw JRO03C from IMM76K update is now available.
