4.2.2 update from Verizon announced - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

What does this mean for the 4.2.2 ROMs out there? Would the developers use the new code to improve the ROMs? Or does it not make any differrence?

I'm pretty sure they announced that it's the same 4.2.2 build as the leak, so I don't think it should matter too much aside from the radios.

The radios were in the leaked build, so there's literally no change.

Is 4.0.3 or 4.0.4 out for GSM Galaxy Nexus yet?

Is 4.0.3 or 4.0.4 stock OTA ROM out for GSM Galaxy Nexus yet? Just making sure I haven't missed anything.
Why is 4.0.4 out for Verizon but we're still on 2?
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk
We have a 4.0.3 and 4.0.4 rom. Check the development section. Another 4.0.4 rom is set to be released as well called Foxhound. It is currently being worked on.

4.0.2 is the latest version of OTA for both CDMA and GSM.
We only have 4.0.3 ROMs because the source trees have been updated but no OTA yet. We have 4.0.4 for CDMA phones because there was one leak and its been put into ROMs.
If you're not going to root, you just gotta wait.
Sorry I should've been clearer.
I am rooted, but was enquiring about the OTA stock ROM versions. Thanks for the answer above!

both versions of the phone are updated to 4.0.2 via OTA, 4.0.3 was only released as source and 4.0.4 was leaked for the LTE

and yet devices like the toshiba a200 are getting updates before our phones. Ridiculous.
I don't see much difference between 4.0.2 stock and 4.0.3 custom r

Pardon me?
Devices may get the latest update before we do, but this does not guarantee the build they receive will be stable and bug free. Also keep in mind predicted release dates are different than actual release dates.
Be patient, enjoy your hardware, and stop worrying about a single digit.
I'm fully aware there are a few complications with the current 4.0.2 builds, but its nothing detrimental to daily usage.
Also I know this is a Google based phone, but users have only insinuated that Google will update the nexus first, Google has not said the nexus will be first.

Well if the Acer A200 is getting 4.0.3 already, I guess it means ours can't be too much longer.
You serious? The performance is much improved, especially the stock browser and app switcher. I tested out a custom ROM to checkout the differences, but ended up immediately going back to stock because I can't bring my self to trust what a custom ROM is doing with my phone and data (no offense to any devs here). I tried to build my own from AOSP but gave up.
I'm impatiently waiting for the official OTA now.

This is lame, been waiting for 4.0.3 for two months basically.
I realize we'll get it before most devices but still, I didn't think it would take this long for actual OTA updates to come out after the source is released.

Actually the 4.0.4 for the Verizon Galaxy Nexus is officially available... I got the OTA update and built a stock ROM over that... and here's the download link from Google... http://android.clients.google.com/p....signed-mysid-IMM30B-from-ICL53F.659e0a8f.zip
I have 4.0.3 on my transformer prime, maybe it's just a tablet upgrade?? and the phones will get a 4.0.4 soon

Just a quick question

What are the odds of us getting some Sense and Touchwiz Roms in the near or distant future?
There already is some. They are alpha builds though.

Any Word On Sprint OTA for Jellybean

Sorry if this has been talked about already but i was just wondering if there was any news on the official JB release for sprint Galaxy Nexus.......
No news for CDMA nexus devices yet. Sometime in Q3 or Q4 is likely.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 2
Nope. CDMA users are still waiting for Verizon/Sprint to confirm and release the updates. Just curious, why don't you just flash Jelly Bean ROM? it'll be much quicker..
Some people need new radios....

The current radios work fine. "Need" and "want" are different things.

Nah I would be glad when the official ota comes. Could help with that fact CDMA phones have issues with the proprietary applications and deep sleep such as my case. I can't seem to get deep sleep on any aosp built or based ROMs other than CM10. I don't know what it is exactly but deep sleep is fine on cm10 but aokp... aosp not a chance. I would hope that would be fixed in the official release.

This is actually going to end up confusing people because it will imply the kernel will work on 4.2.2 regardless of its GPU binaries which is not true.

Thew new 4.2.2 ROMs should implement the new binaries but that's not the case at moment, not custom kernel problem.

The binaries haven't even been merged to CM yet. This pointless thread is going to cause more trouble than help.

I doubt it, I only see log entries for nexus 4, 5, 7 and 10 running 4.4 - Though now I am seeing slightly different builds i.e. KRT10F instead KRT10C

Nexus 10 4.4 KRT13
Nexus 5 4.4 KRT10F

in fact it's not suprise that our GN not receiving 4.4...but still feel a little bit disappointed when knowing that
My two cents...I would be very surprised if we don't get 4.4 officially. It is technically a minor version bump.

...Not as minor as 4.2 -> 4.3. UI drastically changed (not just the launcher) and they decided to make a universally available Launcher called Google Experience, so you see Google is determined to make KitKat a large step forward.
But yeah, based on this point (universal, unified experience) and Google's saying of "making the best experience for everyone", I can say that we're going to get KitKat in one way or another (I don't personally care if Google decides no official release, AOSP is always there). Plus, who said we need 3.4 or even 3.8 kernels to run it (any RELIABLE sources)? Many older devices run JB 4.1 and even 4.2 nicely with 2.6.xx kernels. Many 3.4, 3.8 and even 3.1x features are being backported too.

I'm surprised that you're this delusional, personally I'm planning to rollback to 4.1, the recent versions of android is just too choppy for my liking, ram management is horrible too.

Well, I have had nothing but a well-running Nexus on 4.3 for the last little while, so it really sucks to hear you're having problems. I appreciate a discussion here, but starting off a reply by calling someone "delusional" seems a bit rude and harsh, no?

Look i don't know about Linux Kernel, etc..
But i just saw that the 3.8 is officially discontinued.
3.4 is continued until October 2014.
So i think the next Kernel version for Android will be the 3.10 (long term: until September 2015) not 3.8.
By the way....a Nexus 5 with 3.10 kernel would be pretty nice. But it seem it will be 3.4.
Source
I remember when 3.0 was released (after the 2.6.39), Linus Torvalds said exactly this:
"So what are the big changes? NOTHING. Absolutely nothing. Sure, we have the usual two thirds driver
changes, and a lot of random fixes, but the point is that 3.0 is
*just* about renumbering, we are very much *not* doing a KDE-4 or a
Gnome-3 here. No breakage, no special scary new features, nothing at
all like that. We've been doing time-based releases for many years
now, this is in no way about features. If you want an excuse for the
renumbering, you really should look at the time-based one ("20 years")
instead."
I post that, only to say that sometimes numbers mean nothing..3.4 is a stable kernel, there isn't a big difference that you can see in the daily use with 3.10..really
Lets pray, for kitkat on our phone..!!!

I thought the new nexus an kitkat would have been launched by now, everything has gone quiet now an the hype has gone, iOS7 is keeping me amused for now, the kitkat screenshots look like google got a lot of their inspiration from apple an iOS7, just hope the nexus 5 is as good if not better than iPhone 5s.

They said that 4.4 will work on devices with 512mb of ram. And they said it will be available for older devices.
I think we'll get the update, even though it will be the last one...
