Pink screen, freezes, reboots - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

Hi XDA!
First of all, sorry for my bad english!
Since yesterday I have a big problem with my Galaxy Nexus I9000 I9250 (GSM).
I did a dirty flash upgrade to the latest CM11 official nightly (CM updater), but since then my phone freezes randomly and my screen gets pink, then I cant use my phone and need to pull my battery. I didn't overclock my phone and used the CM11 stock kernel.
Today I'd restore my phone to the Google Stock Image (Android 4.3.3), didn't install any mods and I still got the same problem!
Is my phone bricked? Could you help me out?
Greetz,

I'd use SkipSoft Unified Android Toolkit

Toolkits never work that well if you don't understand the underlying processes. I suggest you revert to stock via adb - that way, you know and understand what exactly you're doing to your phone.
There is a revert to stock guide here.

Do you have the GSM or CDMA version? You can always use Odin or fastboot images to get where you want to be.

Yes Odin will wipe everything and you don't have to be rooted.

Yes, assuming you flash the ics .tar files. Which version of the phone do you have? There are step by step guides for both gsm and the CDMA version.

Back to ics, why?

Found this thread after a search specifically for this - why? Because Voice Dialing over BT is completely broken in JB: http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=35199
Google hasn't acknowledged the issue and seems to have no intent on addressing it. I used the feature daily and depended on it. Now it's completely broken. I've tried a couple of custom ROMs that purported to remedy it (by using some snippets of older code?) but they aren't working either. Would like to go back to ICS until there's another sanctioned release.
My only question was how to disable the OTA upgrade prompting, and it seems this thread has addressed that. Back to ICS I go!
I used to have the bluetooth problem. However I am running CNA with absolutely no problems anymore. All I do is delete the PicoTts.apk and everything works fine with bluetooth dialing. This has worked for the last few roms I have flashed. Might be worth a try to check it out on CNA.

Unlocking boot loader doesn't stop you from updating
Also completely stock meaning you didn't flash a custom ROM or flash a different kernel/radio ,ect
-Google

I thought I heard you need to update the os from 4.0.1→4.0.2→4.0.3→4.0.4→4.1.1? I remember hearing you have to do that maybe you don't.

if he's not rooted (a OTA update works even with rooted devices) and fully stock (meaning, OP didn't touch a thing, only installed his apps), then the normal OTA process will work.
I am sorry that I am not fully aware of all the terms and processes regarding android systems. I have flashed my mobile once because I was asked to do so for a problem in my phone earlier, by someone from the xda forum posts. I haven't been able to update from 4.0.1 yet.. So can you please please provide me with steps to update from 4.0.1 to 4.1 in detail... Also when you mentioned download the update for your version into your computer, where do I do that from?
Thanks everyone.

Are you rooted or stock? If you're stock, I would root as and flash instead of waiting on Verizon. You might be waiting a while if you're waiting on them.

I'm stoke still. I want too root so I can run code name android ROM. I really like it. But my computers broke right now. So I guess I'll just have to wait then.

no need to root; push all needed files to phone, reboot bootloader, flash a custom recovery, wipe data/factory reset, flash a custom rom (gapps if stated on first post)
To my SD card or something?

You can download the factory 4.1 image from the android developers site, then you just have to flash it with fastboot

there's actually a faster way, assuming he wants a custom rom
But there's a deeper issue here: understanding his call delay, rebooting, and lag. If he's on a custom kernel, that might explain it.
everything is stock just unlocked bootloader.

Did you try to see if you have their issues too with a custom custom 4.2.x ?

i just never tried a custom rom!

this.
op probably got OTA
Do you overclock, underclock ?
So if you want to try custom ROM flash one and see if you still have your problems and if they are gone you will never want to go back to stock

learn adb/fastboot and flash downwards back to 4.2.2 using factory images from google
https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images#
I tried it but I got confused can you tell me in a simple way how to use the fastboot directly as in all articles they have things related that should be done from different atricles as I only need the steps I would appreciate it a lot if you tell me what exactly should i do
