[Nexus S General] Gambler_3:
Got it done and I am loving it, no more screen tearing the whole interface is vsynced. Everything is faster menus open up quicker there really has been serious optimization went into jelly bean. I am loving the new camera and gallery app and I have not had any problems so far. Ram usage has also NOT increased which was my biggest fear. :D

Yes btw the CRT animation does not work if you lock on a homescreen or in app drawer, it does not seem like a bug maybe something google did for optimization? I dont really mind it have played with the CRT animation enough for a long time.

To anyone who needs help here is what I did.

I was on stock rooted rom with stock recovery.

I flashed CWM and applied the update.

Got my root back through voodoo OTA rootkeeper. Superuser, SuperSU and busybox everything was retained a fairly painless procedure to get root back.

Just install voodoo OTA rootkeeper and make a root backup BEFORE updating to jelly bean and it will work flawlessly. Voodoo sound is currently not supported but an update is coming soon.
[Nexus S General] imbehind:
Really, what about CRT animation? Sometimes it shows, sometimes not. This is a BUG IMHO.

Can someone fix it?
[Nexus S General] FloHimself:
Are you really sure, that it shows up sometimes?
[Nexus S General] oldblue910:
One thing I noticed about Google Now on the Nexus S as opposed to the Nexus 7 tablet is that it's missing hotword search.

On the Nexus 7, when you're in Google Now, you can just say "Google", and it'll flip to voice search and listen for your question. That functionality was removed from the Nexus S for some reason...maybe the there's something at the microphone hardware level that doesn't allow it to work?
[Nexus S General] jokkir:
I don't think so since it worked in the AOSP version. And it worked well too.

I'm going to do a experiment... Tomorrow if I don't have any update to 4.1, I'm going to back up my 4.0.4 stock and I will install 2.3.6. Then, I will try to update and we will see what happens...

More 5 mins its midnight and no OTA is coming

good night i hope that next google tell us the real date and give us OFFICEL messgae about the coming OTA like

android 4.1 coming in 5 JULY 00:00 GMT

good night all
[Nexus S General] mike.b93:
They'll just roll it out without telling us ;)

Hoping for that do much!

The second it comes out this thread is gonna go on overload...
[Nexus S General] _moriarty:
I would like to make a few statements.

It is currently 4pm July 4th in the U.S. where Google headquarters reside; so there is still time until midnight.

Also since it is Independence day today no work.

I hope it does come today; however, seeing that most companies in the U.S., if not all, have today off seem as if the update will not be rolling out today... maybe tomorrow? My bet is probably sometime around 15th like a few others have said.

[Nexus S General] d3one:
looool soo true!

July 15 is a Sunday, so my guess is 16 or later...

Guys. Its not coming today. I'd bet my house on it. Its a holiday. And its not mid July.
[Nexus S General] 309041291a:
I'll take that bet! You also have to pay for the bills. :D

In all seriousness.... I doubt it's coming today. We'll get it randomly. They'll talk about it and give a few false dates and people will have predictions and on that the day it peeks... BAM! OTA update

[Nexus S General] ekerazha:
I don't know if somebody already reported this, but the Settings hardware button doesn't popup the menu if you press it immediately after showing or hiding the app drawer... try this:

- Open the app drawer

- Immediately press the Settings button

- Close the app drawer (using the Home button)

- Immediately press the Settings button

If you wait a second before/after opening/closing the app drawer, it works fine.

Can anybody confirm this?

[Nexus S General] imbehind:
I am ABSOLUTLY sure it SHOWS UP

SOMETIMES

.

If you turn off the screen, even if the animation is not shown, you can even hear a click (which is linked with CRT animation), like 0.3 after screen shuts down.
[Nexus S General] rasengan82:
I bet this was not consider a showstopper for Google to release the OTA. I really don't care about the CRT animation either.
[Nexus S General] imbehind:
Regarding [sometimes] missing CRT animation:

can you post a little tutorial of how to do that?

[Nexus S General] KoofyKoof:
Hi dude,

same for me, i registered only for this and had the exact same error.

i have a i9023

it wont install just like that,

i am a noob as well but i figured out what to do :

1st backup all of your data.

2nd download nexus root toolkit

3rd click 'full driver installation' and procedure exactly as the script says

4th once done, click 'unlock' and follow procedure exactly as the script says

5th once done, click 'root permanent cwm', and follow procedure exactly as the script says

6th login to google play, download 'rom manager'

7th in the options of 'rom manager' make sure you flash using the latest version '6.0.0.7'

8th reboot, put the google ota update in your phone, turn off phone and reboot in recovery mode by pressing volumeup and power and the same time, select recovery and select apply update

9th jelly bean is installed, what i did is I wipe all of my data again, and did a factory reset so that way i know i have a fresh install

IF I CAN DO IT, YOU CAN DO IT, im a total noob and those are the only instructions you need, if you follow that, you can get it running in 15 minutes

enjoy !:good:

regards !

Regarding no CRT animation BUG:

I've figured it out, however, it does not help.

Any ideas?
[Nexus S General] Luxferro:
Thanks for the OTA link. Just updated my old Nexus S which I keep stock now that it's a spare phone.

1) copy the ota_update.zip to the sdcard

2) boot into fastboot

3) fastboot boot CWR_xxx.img (this just boots CW recovery - not flash it).

4) Install .zip (no wipe necessary from stock 4.0.4)

5) reboot :)
[Nexus S General] dEris:
So after you flash stock factory image. You flash the JB OTA without wiping?
[Nexus S General] carlito00w:
FINALLY i got it and everything works perfectly.

I have a Nexus S i9020

this is what i do:

- flash 4.0.4 factory-image from this file soju-imm76d-factory-ca4ae9ee (you have to unzip it, with 7z ;) and put all file in fastboot.exe directory or where do you want but adjust commands)

adb reboot bootloader

fastboot flash bootloader bootloader-crespo-********.img

fastboot reboot-bootloader

fastboot flash radio radio-crespo-********.img

fastboot reboot-bootloader

fastboot update image-********.zip

- flash clockworkmod (recovery-clockwork-touch-5.8.0.2-crespo)

fastboot flash recovery recovery*****.img

- boot to recovery

- flash unchanged 4.1.1-ota (this file 9ZGgDXDi.zip)

- reboot into android

I hope it's helpful for someone.

GOOD JB TO EVERYONE

Any ETA on FULL JB ROM from Google?
[Nexus S General] Flash05:
offline voice typing isnt present :(
[Nexus S General] Gambler_3:
Thanks will try it but I am not really bothered by this right now. :)

It seems to take pics a bit faster, there is a nice animation after taking the pic and the biggest feature is that you can simply dive into the camera gallery by swiping right from the camera app and it works without a hitch. In ICS it just took too long to get into the gallery from the camera app, now they are integrated.

Link to what?
[Nexus S General] dEris:
I installed this version of the OTA - :-)
[Nexus S General] 4tticuz:
I flashed 4.0.4. Stock via fastboot, which file do I have to flash via custom recovery to apply the full OTA update (which is not a "official ota update"...)

Thanks alot!

[Nexus S General] ludovicien:
Olive75 on SFR's Android blog page says she received the FOTA this morning in Paris. No joy yet for me. Maybe Google is rolling it out by neighbourhood. :o

In the replies, SFR has the grace to concede that this update is nothing to do with them and is entirely the responsibility of Google. This seems obvious to me, but reading elsewhere I see people worried that their operator is dawdling. I have no idea about the 'rest of the world' but AFAIK in Europe there are no carrier-locked Nexus S phones.
[Nexus S General] 4tticuz:
Since there is no Full ROM to flash 4.1.1 from any version, you only receive the FULL OTA when you update via OTA from 4.0.4.

If you have 4.0.4, I dont know if there is a flashable zip only for the update from 4.0.4 - 4.1.1, which is a full update
[Nexus S General] satelwounds:
I got the OTA

Hello,

i use the Galaxy Nexus trick. (i had to proceed 10 times then it started the download)

(Nexus s i9023 -> 4.0.4)

9. about Phone

10. Systemup dates (last time of updatechecking should be 01.01.1970)

It took me about 10 minutes to get Jelly Bean on my phone. it works great and smoothly as hell.

cya and good luck
[Nexus S General] dEris:
No. Flash the file i said in my original post and you don't have to flash 4.0.4 stock at all. YOu can just wipe and flash.

In the dev forum is only a ROM, which is not the full OTA. This is why I asked
[Nexus S General] UniqueNate:
No sir. Maybe before the month is over is my guess. It's a Nexus but carrier based in a way, so expect it to be last. Same with Verizon. Unlocked GSM is the way.

I have installed Jelly Bean update (: All is ok... beatiful OS now (: it is so smooth!
[Nexus S General] diverbelow:
It works, but make sure you have WiFi turned on. Since the OTA is currently valid on WiFi only until July 21st. Then the OTA can be downloaded either by mobile or WiFi.

But it failed when i tried to install via cwm recovery.Please help............
[Nexus S General] mayurjango:
That probably means you're Not completely on Stock Android or some of the system files are altered in your stock ROM. You should first use the 'Flash Stock + Root' option in toolkit to restore your Nexus S (soju) to the stock 4.0.4 IMM76D. Then use the below tutorial to update to 4.1.1 by installing the official OTA update via CWM.

CWM Recovery 6.0.0.7

I dont know if it has been addressed in her but after looking through a bunch of posts it appears a lot of people are having troubles with CWM.

When I upgraded to CWM 6.0.0.7 I though I was having problems with everything!

It seems that the first few times you use 6.0.0.7 things take A LONG TIME to get working.

As you use it it speeds up the process and eventually it seems to be working much quicker than older versions.

suggestion-flash some roms and back up some while you are waiting!!!!!!

1st impressions

Start up is a nice glowing X instead of all that blue fluttering with ICS.

The process took about 10 mins to "optimize" my apps before the phone started properly.

Front camera OK

My beloved ICS Browser + not working (I guess the hint is in the name), all other apps fine.

Battery now charges to 99%

Navigation is not buttery. Choppy is more like the word. Or jerky. Click on settings and there's a blank screen. Leaving the browser just now there was a longish wait for the home screen to repopulate itself with icons.

No EAP-Sim, I'm afraid, my fellow Freemobile users.
[Nexus S General] JavaJunkay:
Just backup all your apps, wipe all in CWM and flash full Jelly Bean zip. Got tired of everyone else's solutions and this one should work for everyone. Yeah it requires root, shame on you for still not doing it on a Nexus device.

[Nexus S General] antiker1:
finally, i've successfully updated my nexus s with jelly bean :)

unfortunatelly, there was no ota available yet, so i've installed the download version from the google server. my experience was that you should make sure that you have the latest superuser installed before you do this update. before i did this update i had an older but bugfree version of superuser running which i have also installed after the update with cwm. That was a failure because i didn't get root with it. So, I've downloaded the latest non-rc verson from the superuser server and installed it with cwm. Finally i got my root back even though it's a buggy version. That doesn't matter because i guess i saw a rc2 of superuser. So i think, the update comes soon.

Nevertheless, everything seems to work. Well, I use apex as launcher and don't see any performance improvements of this update.
