Once they have the 4.0.4 -> 4.1.1 update OTAs prepped out, I hope they push them out to both yakju and takju at the same time, since yakju and takju IMM76I are pretty much the same except GWallet.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MoosDiagramm:
Your device is "maguro".

"yakju" and "takju" are merely a software difference. "takju" builds include Google Wallet (although it is disabled if you live outside of the US), "yakju" builds don't include it, though it can be downloaded from Google Play. That's the only difference.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kinggheedora:
He is right though, the information here is pretty complicated. People are all "Oh, I just followed these 8 simple steps", and proceed to list out 8 steps, where each of the steps requires researching the terminology and finding threads each with a dozen or more steps to perform that one task. "Install Clockwork Mod? What is that? What will it do to my phone? <opens new tab, searches around for instructions on how to install CWM>.... ok now what, Unlock the bootloader? What does that mean? <opens new tab, searches around for instructions on how to unlock bootloader>". By the time you have installed a new ROM, which is all you wanted to do in the first place you have maybe dozens of hours reading threads downloading random .exe's and following steps. It gets really annoying. There could be a middle ground between waiting for an OTA and following a clear and step-by-step set of instructions. And it would be nice if people included links in their instructions instead of on page 100 of a thread saying something like "download the OTA update", where there have been several different files posted in the 99 preceding pages.

I'm not *****ing about it, because I'm aware that people are doing this in their free time, and I definitely appreciate that. I'm just saying that that other user is right, that the information presented here is often unorganized and/or confusing. It's frustrating for people who don't have time to learn every nook and cranny of their phone's OS, but just want to install a different/newer ROM.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Streaker:

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Zslev:
Okay, I dunno if this helps but:

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] welshboysteve:
I rooted my phone a few weeks ago just to see if I could do it. I could! Well done me.

I have put my phone back to how it was, unrooted and locked boot thingy.

Do you think I will receive the OTA or will Google know that my device has previously been rooted and disqualify me from the software update?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bilalakhtar:
Provided your build has an update ready (yakju, takju, etc) and you're on the latest version they last sent to you, then you're eligible for an update. Updates are then rolled out selectively in order to contain problems if they arise. In order for the update to install successfully, you need to be on 100% stock with unmodified kernel, radio, etc.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] big samm:
Ive read all the pages in this thread, and several times they said that the bootloader is not the factor to get ota updates... I think it has to do with your device being on stock rom and stock recovery.... If it's on stock rom you're good to go!

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] CoronaDelux:
I believe if you have a google play gnex, unlocking the bootloader will NOT wipe your data. I actually did this yesterday by following the thread in the Q&A section, and simply powered down after unlocking. When I booted back up, all of my data was still intact.

I did not know if this was a bug in ICS, so I figured that I should unlock it before JB was updated and fixed it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] leoluisguitar:
Btw guys my gnex its not from the Google play store, i just flash with galaxy nexus toolkit the Takju 4.0.4 image, and do the framework thing (for 5 times without stoping) :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martindesu:
It's not. That's CWM recovery.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] greeced:
That's the whole point though. And no he isn't right.

It takes time to learn how to do things... on one note, efrant's instructions in the thread that he referenced are idiot proof. I for one am proof of that... if me saying that doesn't prove it to you, take a look at his thanks meter. He's helped out many people.

The next point is that it only gets as complicated as you want it to be. If you refuse to take the time and learn about what the terminology is and want everything spoon fed to you, then you run the risk of causing damage to your setup/phone because you didn't take the time to learn that which you don't understand.

Flashing and the like on these phones is quite easy, but also difficult for some.. that is why some manufacturers void warranties if you root or flash custom roms.

Beyond this, Yes, those 8 steps may take some researching on terminology at the end of the day, but its in this research that you gain knowledge and become a guru to yourself.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bilalakhtar:
Well, you can flash the yakju zip if you can't wait. See the first post.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] daern:
When 4.1 came out I reflashed from yakju to takju using bigxie ROM. Seems that I can't get OTA with this, so just stuck the bigxie 4.1.1 over the top (with cache purges etc). All working well and it upgraded in the car cradle on the way to the shops :-)

If you're that desperate for 4.1.1, I'd just do this. Easy enough to go back to stock once the 4.1.1 factory images are released by JBQ.

If you want OTA...you need patience :-)

This site is called xda-DEVELOPERS. Not xda-NOOBIECAKES. Seriously, this is a developer oriented forum. We expect people to have some modicum of understanding. When we say flash a new recovery, we shouldn't have to make a step-by-step guide from driver install, to commands, to booting it... ESPECIALLY when those topics have been covered TO DEATH on this forum and various wiki pages and blogs that can be found in 5 seconds on google.

This thread has 828 replies. Maybe 20 replies with good information in it. And over 800 replies of ****, just clogging up the thread making it very hard for the people who know what they're doing to find the information they need on this ota.

The new stock recovery has a new menu option in it - Apply update from ADB.

Any idea what it does? Does this mean we'd no longer have to flash CM just to flash an OTA zip?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kikumbob:
This is most likely a method that only works by coincidence. But some have testified that they can "force" the OTA update by clearing the google service framework data by going to settings > apps > all > google service framework > clear data. After that they check for an update, where their last check was at 1979 (I guess the lowest date the system knows about). The theory is that by doing this you get a "higher priority", but I am very skeptical. Have a read of the last few comments of this google+ page by JBQ himself. Very informative. https://plus.google.com/u/0/112218872649456413744/posts/QkKumgFm6pm

But the previous comment stated I should flash 4.1 then go to 4.1.1. I will try that now.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] efrant:
Yup.

That is the menu in the stock recovery. To access it, when you are at the screen with the android and the red triangle, push power and then volume up.

To echo what greeced and GldRush98 have already said, this is XDA-developers.com, not XDA-help-desk.com. I cannot say it any better than what kyphur said a few years back. If you do not care about understanding, then you probably shouldn't be here in the first place. There are many other user-oriented Android sites, that are all about the end state, the destination. This site is about the learning, the process, the journey.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Arthur Hucksake:
Install new boatloader, radio and full zip. Make sure you got right 4.1.1 , not incremental update.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] efrant:
So, what do you think that error tells us? It is saying that an assert check has failed -- this means that the update file is looking for a file on your device, and it cannot find it, so it aborts the install. The file in this case is build.prop.

So, what could be the problem? Well, it could be that you, or one of your root apps have modified that file. And we know that updates do NOT work if ANY of the stock files have been modified or deleted, including wallpaper, ringtones, etc. Anything. So, if that is indeed the case, and you changed your build.prop file (like changing the DPI setting or whatever else), you need to replace it with the original one. And we do know how to do that right? (Because I mentioned it in the first post of the OTA update thread, right?)
