Huh... holding the volume up and tapping power isn't really doing anything. Tried volume down as well. Tried tapping volume buttons. Tried holding down power with volume up held down, that just rebooted me.

I'm so close!! :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] efrant:
Like I said, it is VERY finicky. Try pushing volume up and power repeatedly, without holding them down.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jcsww:
You might want to try removing the batter, holding the volume up and power when you slip it back in. That has worked for me in the past.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] USA Prime Credit Peggy:
Did this,

and this, and we have great success!

Thank you all so much. I was on a tester Verizon phone in January that had 4.0.4 and when I got my permanent one it was 4.0.2 and it was torture having to downgrade (my area has tons of 4g-3g hand offs making for bad battery on 4.0.2). Now that I'm at full strength again, I feel so much more powerful.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mindwalkr:
Aren't you guys complicating ?

While the phone is off, just press and hold both volume keys.. then without releasing them, hold the power key and don't release all 3 until you boot into the bootloader

Alternatively just boot into Android and with Debug enabled, use ADB to invoke adb reboot bootloader
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] efrant:
I think you need to re-read what we are talking about. We are NOT talking about getting into the bootloader menu. We are talking about accessing the stock recovery menu.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bfroehlich:
Power first and then volume up quickly after while in recovery.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mindwalkr:
oh... I didn't know there was a menu in the stock recovery :eek:

I thought it would always only flash a specific file with a fixed name or else just sit in there.

Well I've always done my flashing stuff using CWR so that's why I never needed to access the stock recovery menu.

We're always learning :cool:

---- edit

well I've read your first post entirely now as I've had only read the section that worked for me (i.e. unlocked bootloader, CWR).

The method I thought would work for stock recovery without needing to access its menu is your method 4.. with a file named update.zip placed in /sdcard. think I've read this somewhere else around here, even in other forums like when I was flashing with me Nexus S. I guess that's why I thought there was no menu at all and it just expected that file.. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] efrant:
Even with method 4 (which I don't believe works on a GNex) and method 3a, you still have to access the stock recovery menu... ;)

First post updated with the yakjukr IMM76K from ICL53F update. Thanks phone_user!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hboyer:
Hi efrant, could you provide me with a cwm flash able zip of the imm76i (gsm, maguro) stock kernel, as you did once for me for icl53f.

thanks in advance!!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jcsww:
I wouldn' mind having that to save incase needed myself.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] efrant:
Here ya go guys. I haven't tested it, but it should work just fine. Don't forget to wipe cache and Dalvik after flashing.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hboyer:
thanks. flashed back to stock kernel with it. works!! :)

So can I navigate to /cache and paste the UGLC1.img there to get the newest radio? I have an "apply from /cache" option in my stock 4.0.4 recovery.

I also have a stock 4.0.2. I was planning on using the "Casual" root, installing CWM and then flashing the newest UGLC1 radio. That should work right?

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] efrant:
No, you cannot flash a radio with a stock recovery. You either need root, CWM or an unlocked bootloader.

Yes it would. Once you have CWM or root, you can flash a radio. But, as always, I would recommend you unlock your bootloader once you have CWM and are able to do a backup.

Thank you!! First post updated.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ibraheeemz:
I am sure this would have been asked before but sorry i couldnt go all the way through this thread. Just wanted to aks if any of you know that rooting voids warranty or not ? I bought galaxy nexus unlocked from local market here in Saudi Arabia , and its showing the version 4.0.1 and i want to upgrade it to latest version. I cannot find the OTA update, it says the system is up to date. Any help ?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kms108:
yes it will void your warranty, but you can master reset the phone back to factory default, and they wont know.

many official update apart from the YAKJU tends to be way behind, my hong kong version is only 4.0.2., unless you flash to yakju to get 4.0.4, there is no going back to countries default f/w unless you backup, but it wont be stock.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] efrant:
1) A reset will not restore you device to factory settings if you have played around with the system partition (which is what you are doing when you get root).

2) You are right, you need to back up your current build if you want to keep it before flashing yakju. HOWEVER, to-date, no one has reported that they had ANY issues returning a device for warranty with yakju on it, despite whatever build they had on it before.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kms108:
I haven't rooted my gnex, but i remember when I had the i9000 rooted, once master reset, everything was back to stock and the root was gone.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] efrant:
A factory reset on a GNex wipes the userdata partition only. It doesn't touch anything else. So you would have to go in and manually delete su and Superuser.apk on the system partition.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ibraheeemz:

If you want to discuss that, please discuss it in the appropriate thread, like this one. This thread is not about that.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ibraheeemz:
I booted into stock recovery by VolumeUp/Down+Power...and at the end of screen its showing lock state: Unlocked. So, can I directly upgrade by one of the methods you mentioned in the first post?

Edit:

I also tried various options from the stock menu and I could see "recovery" I guess boot into recovery or start recovery something... I opted it.. and I could boot into CWM recovery 5.5.0.2

how is it even possible, this is a brand new phone, I bought from market, and it has recovery installed in it??? is it similar for you guys as well???

and by the way can I now upgrade to the latest OTAs..?? I have taken the backup from recovery already..
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] efrant:
That is the bootloader, not recovery.

You need to find out which build you are running. Looking in Settings->About phone and read your build number. Depending on what it says, you need a specific version of the update related to your build, as listed in the first post.

Not sure why it has CWM already on it. If it does, obviously it is not new...

See my comment above about checking which build you are on. If you are not on yakju or takju, you may want to consider converting your build to one of those by following the steps here.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ibraheeemz:
my build is ITL41F with Android 4.0.1 and

kernel version is 3.0.1-ga052f63

android-build@apa28#1

its a brand new phone, I even opened its packing and removed the cover myself... but whatever... so I am good to go with the upgrade, and if it has the recovery already it means I can upgrade without voiding the warranty, I hope so...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] efrant:
If it says ITL41F in the "Build number" (and ONLY that, not something like ITL41F.I9250JPKK6), then you are running yakju. In this case, you need to do two updates: one update to ICL53F, and then one from ICL53F to IMM76I. Download the appropriate yakju updates from the first post and follow Method 1 to install, given that you already have CWM installed.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ibraheeemz:
no, sorry I missed to give the other info...ITL41F.I9250UGKL1
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] efrant:
Then you are NOT running a yakju build. You are running yakjuux, which does not have an IMM76D/I/K (i.e., official 4.0.4) update yet.

Your best bet would be to convert to yakju using the method I linked to earlier.

EDIT: You can certainly update to yakjuux 4.0.2 though, if you'd like.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ibraheeemz:
so, just to clarify... any difference between yakju build. and yakjuux?? just to ask your personal views...should I opt for this conversion??
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] efrant:
No one has seen ANY difference to this point, aside from yakju being updated first, before all other builds, and sometimes months before.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] got_milk:
Well, besides the localization differences, which is likely the root cause of these different build variants.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] efrant:
And what would those "localization differences" be?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] thephantom:
The only localization I saw was that my old yakjuzs had chinese keyboard. Maybe that and perhaps something else but I think it's not really important
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ibraheeemz:
I did root and installed CWM as well... and followed the instructions from the first post

...I tried to flash yakjuux ICL53F from ITL41F: but it gave some error "installation aborted"... then I flashed yakjuux IMM48: and it was successful, but after that my mobile is not booting to home...it only shows the google window or can boot into recovery... and bootloader... what should be done??? how much time it takes to reboot actually after the upgrade?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] efrant:
I thought I had said to update to ICL53F, not IMM48, no?

If ICL53F did not work, then there is something that was not "stock" on your device. That is why the update aborted.

At this point, you need to do this.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] slayr76:
Is this worth flashing or should I just stay on yakju 4.0.4 as I'm with vodafone Australia.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] t2dc:
I'm with Vodafone too. Because I had CWM I couldn't OTA and I had issues updating with this package (I think I'd done some stupid noob things and flashed a different radio or something - so it wouldn't verify the version of 4.01 I had - or something). So I followed efrant's excellent instructions on how to get to yakju.

Unless you're having issues with it, there's no functional reason to go back to the Vodafone track. Afterall, we might be getting Jellybean this week. On Vodafone you'd be waiting until November... :laugh:

This vodafone blog post might be another place to ask blog.vodafone.com.au/blog/galaxy-nexus-by-samsung-android-update-20062012
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] efrant:
Thank you!! I'll update the first post tomorrow.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] slayr76:
Jellybean is what I want so I will stay with yakju an give vodafone 4.0.4 a miss as they released it way to late for anyone to care about wanting it now.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] efrant:
Word on the street is that those who are receiving the Galaxy Nexus as a gift from the Google I/O event will be receiving Jelly Bean 4.1 within a few hours after turning on their devices. If anyone sees the link, please post it here and make sure you download it and post a mirror, as we are not sure how long that link will be live if Google sees that JB is spreading like wildfire!

Thanks and spread the word!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] segv11:
That will probably be a maguro-only update, so it won't help people like me on toro... but best of luck to all of you.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] efrant:
Updated first post for the Jelly Bean update for takju. Looks like it requires takju IMM30D to work.

Anyone have a nandroid backup they could share?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] e-Minguez:
What about applying the JB takju update to yakju?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] efrant:
That will not work unless you have a yakju IMM30D ROM, which doesn't exist. The updates have certain checks in them that verify which ROM you are using, and if you are using the incorrect ROM, it won't update, because the patches are specific to files found on specific ROMs.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jcsww:
Just ODIN the takju build and install the update afterwards, if you can't wait for a few custom ROM's to come out. AOKP is hard at work on theirs. Hopefully it'll be released by the end of the weekend, if not sooner. Those are just my guestimates though and don't reflect any time frame from the guys behind AOKP.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] efrant:
And just how are you going to do that? There is NO takju IMM30D image available.

If you want JB now, you need to flash Koush's nandroid of it, found here.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] elban:
I suppose when they say "jelly bean will be available on the galaxy nexus on mid july" it's (also) for yakju, so it's just a two weeks wait ;-)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] efrant:
Exactly!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] thos25:
I havent tried this process but Ive seen a few people say that there isnt an image for the IMM30D out there. I came across a thread which links to a zip file to flash which gives you IMM30D.

Then it calls for flashing the OTA through CWM as well.

It has since been deemed uneccessary because CWM has a full JB ROM zip available for flash. Now, I guess I have a couple questions about it.

*I am NOT ROOTED with a STOCK recovery and Unlocked Bootloader*

1) the ROM available through CWM is already rooted, etc. Can you just fastboot into CWM and flash it? Im thinking that you cant unless rooted, but I dont know for certain. The whole concept of being able to use custom recovery without root is a bit foreign to me as Ive never had Nexus before. Ive never had access to custom recovery without Root so I dont know what you can and cant flash exactly without having root as well as the recovery.

2) If you are able to flash IMM30D through CWM, then it should also be possible to flash any full image the same way. What I mean is that instead of downloading the image from the google devs site, unpacking it all, then flashing recovery, reboot, flash boot.img, reboot, flash radio, reboot, etc. You should be able to simply find a zipped up ROM of whatever image you want, then boot into recovery, & flash the entire ROM, right?

Not like it is hard to flash all the contents step by step, but I ask simply for a better understanding of what the capabilities of an unrooted device with an unlocked bootloader are. I already understand there are shortcuts such as

flash-all.sh, etc. But this would be even one more "shortcut". Would make it easier for people to convert from yajkuXX to yakju/takju.

Anyhow, here is the process I saw in the other thread....

1.Backup apps and other data

or http://www.embedupload.com/?d=02MTABK2G3﻿

4.Then flash http://android.clients.google.com/pa...D.5a07884d.zip

5. Reboot, and you should be on Jelly bean 4.1

These exact steps are untested by me ( i dont have a gnexus) but should work fine
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] oldblue910:
Google has taken down the JRN84D file from their servers. A copy is mirrored at http://randomphantasmagoria.com/firmware/galaxy-nexus/i9250 in case anyone needs it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] efrant:
Thanks man, you are on the ball! Your site is linked in the first post.

P.S. To me, it's no surprise they did. Once they saw how quickly it was spreading. Not that it's going to change anything though... :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] oldblue910:
I'll keep it mirrored at least until the production Jelly Bean OTA comes out. At that point, if JRN84D gets an OTA, I'll keep it in the list, but otherwise I'll just nix it like I did with IMM30B for the VZW Gnex. I'd say it's safe to say by now that one won't be getting an OTA to IMM76K.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] efrant:
Yes you can. Root is irrelevant, as you are replacing your system image (where the root files reside), so root or no root makes no difference.[/QUOTE]

Yes. You just need to unpack the system and boot images from the factory .tar and re-pack them in a CWM-flashable format (i.e., with an updater-script and binary). It is easier to flash images in fastboot -- if you don't have an image, just a bunch of files, it is easier to you CWM instead of packing them up into a fastboot image.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] risktaker84:
I am one of those impatient JB lovers who just can't wait for the OTA update. I am really intrigued with the steps mentioned here. Has anyone given them a shot?

I am running Xenon HD V5.0 Franco Kernel
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] efrant:
It is pointless doing it that way when the full ROM is available here http://d-h.st/Gkh. The end result is EXACTLY the same.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] thos25:
Well the two files to switch to imm30d are both down. Neither will work. So it looks like this method will not work.

I downloaded the flashable zip of the entire jelly bean Rom from another thread and used cwm to flash it. Now I'm rocking jelly bean flavored goodness.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] efrant:
That's the way to do it!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] risktaker84:
*n00b reply* Bare with me

I was under the impression that in order to Flash the JB JRN84D you need to be running Stock IMM30D which apparently is Takju build.

So i need to:

-Flash Takju image, hence going from Yakju to Takju

-Find Stock IMM30D from somewhere and flash it through CWM

-Then flash entire flashable zip for the JB and that should do it

Any feedback would be highly appreciated, thanks again.

Edit:

Sorry went back and read this

So if I flash Koush's nandroid, I should be good to go ?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] efrant:
Yes! But as I said, since you are not "updating", you are flashing a new full ROM, you may need to wipe data (you may end up with a bootloop if you don't). Certainly wipe both cache and the dalvik though.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] thos25:
Yes. The other method I mentioned previously is no longer needed.

You do not need to be on imm30d to flash the entire Rom through cwm.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nexusprime1:
This becomes useless as jelly bean hits next month or availible for download here :-) never received the 4.0.4 update on my yakjuux build stock nexus now I know why :-)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] efrant:
What becomes useless? This guide does not, as it is good for flashing any stock image found on Google's factory image page. As well, you don't have to wait for Jelly Bean next month, as it is here. Just flash the ROM image in my signature in CWM, and you will have official Jelly Bean.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kicknik:
Sorry I've been having some problems...

So i am using method one as i have unlocked bootloader, CWM, and root.

I deleted the recovery folder and tried to flash and got "assert failed: apply_patch_check(/system/framework/framework-res.apk"

Advice?

Edit- I think it may be because i don't have the stock framework-res.apk.. Any chance someone can load it for me to replace it root explorer?

Im on 41D yakju.

Thanks for any help
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] aspot72:
well... I flashed ICL53F from ITL41D and everything OK...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] efrant:
That is exactly why. These updates are meant for stock ROMs, not for modified stock ROMs.

I dont have the apk as i am on 4.0.2, but you should be able to extract the apk you are looking for from the stock image on Google's factory image page.

You could also try deleting the assert, but I'm not sure what that would do as I don't know what mods you made to the apk.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mij1525:
Worked great. Used CWM. Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kicknik:
Yea I know I realized that, that's how I figured out my problem. A while ago I foolishly tried to load the brightness mod on but that was 41F not 41D so it didn't work and now I can't update.

If someone could help me extract I would really appreciate it. I downloaded the stock image but I am not sure how to extract the 4.0.1 apk.

Edit: I just backed up everything and flashed a custom ROM instead since i couldn't get it to work. thanks

Delete all assert description in the updater script.

After that it can flash. On my phone it works after that.
