But i am on not stock rom i am on CM 10 and i think it is not possible to install/flash 4.2 without wipe data !
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sendhiloo7:
Yes. You need to wipe all your apps and app data , but not your images, videos and backup.. Its will not erase if you using cwm .

You can simple backup using any software and install from cwm and root your mobile and restore it

hey any1 got ota update in india?i dont have my laptop wid me..i had yakjujp..so i had flashed takju 4.1.2 before..i still dont have the ota update..checked many tymz..
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] addicted2088:
It is possible to flash without wiping data. I've moved between quite a few ROMs without wiping data. However, moving to a stock ROM does sometimes cause it not to boot without a wipe, but you should do this: make a full backup in recovery as well as using Titanium Backup/MyBackup Root, then attempt to install 4.2 without a wipe. If it doesn't boot, just go into recovery and wipe data. This won't erase anything on the internal storage.

EDIT: Sorry, misread. Takju variant should be getting the update. Tried clearing Google Framework Services data and checking for update?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] beatles1:
I'm on stock takju build JZO54K..havent recieved the update as yet..how long should I wait before trying to flash it or something??
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] addicted2088:
Why wait? It's easy to manually flash the OTA file via adb, doesn't cause any problems. Here's a good guide: http://www.theandroidsoul.com/download-android-4-2-update-for-galaxy-nexus/
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] beatles1:
I'm actually new to all this rooting thing. So I dont want to brick my phone. So waiting for the OTA. Any idea when it'll be out?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] addicted2088:
Nope, OTAs just start rolling out, no ETAs. But anyway, that procedure I linked to is very easy, and doesn't involve anything that can brick your device, so at least give it a read. No rooting, no hacking, nothing required.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] beatles1:
okay. Will I recieve future OTA updates if I manually flash ths OTA?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] addicted2088:
Yes, that OTA file you will flash is officially provided by Google for manual flashing, so future updates will roll in as well. No issues there :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] thedreamer09:
Update have rolled out bro. Check it out. Even mine is stock takju build JZO54K

I have started downloading the update :good:

People who switched from S2, do you miss your S2?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ImSherlocked:
Not even once. Although I had paid more for S2, it feels inferior to GNex as far as software, looks and screen is concerned. Only speaker and camera quality in S2 is better compare to GNex. But again GNex has zero shutter lag camera.

I shall be getting my nexus 4 once the stock is available :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ronhoover88:
Planning to get one, should I keep my S2 and go for nexus 7 or just replace my s2 with galaxy nexus.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ImSherlocked:
I have not tried Nexus 7 so cannot suggest. I have decided to buy the next version (in 2013) of nexus tab. Go for Nexus 4 I would say if it fits your budget. Otherwise if you can put up with weak camera and speakers, buy gnex.

Can someone help me select a kernel which has stability and performance.. I have tried Franco and trinity.

Franco at that time wasn't so stable and I I didn't like the colour calibration of trinity.

Keep the S2 as you must have heard official JB got leaked for it.. Got all the goodies from S3..

Is your GNex (yajku) still waiting for the OTA? Convert to Takju without loosing data

Are you a Galaxy Nexus (yakju) user and waiting for the 4.2 OTA update while the same has been pushed for Takju variant... please follow below to convert from yakju to takju (stock) without loosing your data/apps: (considering you know adb & fastboot and have set them up on your computer. Also assuming your Bootloader is unlocked)[Please read before you implement]

1. Download the 4.2 factory images for Takju from http://goo.gl/UMbmS

2. Extract files using 7-zip on Windows (you need to extract twice and will get the files as: bootloader-xxx.img; radio-xxx.img and image-xxx.zip)

3. Copy these files to the location android-sdk/platform-tools/ (if you have the android-sdk installed or to the location where adb & fastboot is)

4. Plug in your Galaxy Nexus (ensure Debug option is enabled under Developer Settings

5. Follow these commands:

a. adb reboot bootloader

b. fastboot flash bootloader bootloader-xxx.img

c. fastboot reboot-bootloader

d. fastboot flash radio radio--xxx.img

e. fastboot reboot-bootloader

f. fastboot update image-xxx.zip

This would update your Galaxy Nexus from Stock 4.1.2 (yakju) to Stock 4.2 (takju) without losing any data/apps

Note:

1. If you using Windows follow the video tutorial to setup adb and fastboot http://goo.gl/jGcic

2. If you are on Mac, use ./ before the commands for execution

*Disclaimer: I have followed the above to the T and moved from Stock 4.1.2 (yakju) to Stock 4.2 (takju) with Unlocked Bootloader, but you follow these at your own risk.

Hit Thanks, if this helps you...

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ImSherlocked:
I was running stock 4.1.2.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ATMOSF3AR:
Anyone with 4.2 ?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Pro4Eva:
Im running 4.2 and the like 100's 4.2 users before me have said its smooth and Panorama's are average and will need more time and updates from google to mature into a deal breaker till den its another of those gimmicks which are incorporated in a new operating system to get us geeks all excited. One thing they really out did themselves on is the way the notifications bar functions that to me is jus brilliant..

Performance wise its great - I had an HTC One X so yes i can tell the difference, 4.2 is a battery nightmare but well that will change in due course.

Still nothing to write home about as to me it isnt the software i wud expect that google wud market with such powerful hardware in the N4 but there are many more updates to come for the device so lets hope we Galaxy Nexus folks also enjoy OEM support in the coming years.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] haxor:
anybody else confirm it to get OTA 4.2 of yakju build ?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Dr. Sheldon Cooper:
Any idea when will I get OTA update 4.2 Jelly bean in my GNex. It has yakjuxw firmware.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] :
Hi Sheldon, if you have yakjuxw then I assume you are running 4.1.1 not 4.1.2. There is possibility that, you may take longer than expected to get 4.2 updates, your phone updates are controlled by Samsung rather than Google.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] viraaj:
What is your build number

New Galaxy Nexus

I received my galaxy nexus today :D and it is my first android phone.

It's nice to see so many galaxy nexus users in India!

It was bought in August from the play store and I just got it here in India. It came with Android 4.0.4 onboard, then I got an update notification for 4.1, I installed the update, then I got another notification for 4.1.2 and I installed it, then I got yet another update notification for 4.2 and I'm installing it right now!

Shouldn't I have received the 4.2 update directly or is this the way it's supposed to be?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sstiwari:
Thats the way it is. Go ahead and install 4.2 update.

or if you wish you can download a factory image from here

and install it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] anil76:
Probably ota updates are incremental updates so you getting updates one by one. 4.2 ota upgrade may rely on some existing files from 4.1.2.

And was running a cm7 port with insane overclocking to 1Ghz which was stable in that much clocking and used to run so many roms , Now all i want is a pure Google phone without any modifications :P

Oh and i flashed the yakju 4.0.4 factory image to replace my yakjujp ,like a minute after turning on the phone and realizing that it was the arabic version :D

and locked the bootloader immediately after that ;)

No more rooting or custom roms for a few more months :p

My Friend, I fear there is no way force a GNex on 3G only. Its sad that all other android smartphones have the option of 3G only. In GNex its like, it picks the 2G or #G Network based on signal strength, so If 3G signal strength is poor(which in fact is in my case), it selects and locks to 2G Network only. Yes if sometimes 2G Network is down, it locks on to 3G Network.
