It is but you need to either flash it from the stock image (not OTA) or flash system files first (not sure about this part).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jazzruby:
What's posted here in the OP is an OTA 'update' and the requirements are that your device is Stock 4.1.2 JZO54K (takju) and your data is preserved.

What haka was referring to is flashing the stock 4.1.2 JZO54K (takju) image on a yakju device; which will wipe the entire device (loss of data), and then applying the update, however this is no longer required as Google has posted the 4.2 JOP40C (takju) image at the developer site.

HTH,

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] iTomate:
ah nice :) got i working now! just downloaded the image from the developer site and flashed it.

thanks so much for help, what a nice community :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Quinny899:
You actually don't have to wipe fully to flash the takju image on maguro. I installed a 4.1.2 odexed ROM in recovery (factory reset, no /data/media) (still wouldn't update) and then flashed the system and boot images on top using fastboot (no wipe) and it updated fine.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] artkrz:
Is there any good reason why Google is not realising yakuj OTA/stock image ? I thought those images are almost exactly the same. I'm really close to flash stock takuj however since I'm in UK I'm not sure is this OK + I don;t fancy reinstalling everything if titanium backup won't work.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Pecata:
They may-I am not sure. I am on takju and haven't received the OTA yet. I think there may an issue they are trying to resolve and they may have stopped the OTA altogether until they figure it out. This is just a guess of course.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Byakuya88:
hello guys, i'am a Galaxy S3 user so this is the first time i try to flash a Galaxy Nexus....the phone is not rooted and the bootloader is locked, the phone is a yakju model, is it possible to flash this ota file on a yakju phone ????? how can i do it ??? and is it possible to be more specific, thanks a lot
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] colonelcack:
Is this just an update that requires 4.1.2 to be installed? Or can I do a full system wipe and install just this by itself?

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] wuodland:
Thanks a lot for the reply everyone :)

I had manually downloaded takju Android 4.2 and have successfully installed it on my nexus. Everything is working fine. Although now I cant seem to find option for developer menu.

Its stable and working fine.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sstiwari:
Go to Setting -> About phone -> Build No-> and tap build no. 7-8 times, developer options will be unlocked.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ibbeltje:
android 4.2

you can also flash the factory image form the takju on the yakju

download the takju image android 4.2 from the nexus rom site

unpack the download

put your devices in fastboot mode

go to the extracted folder

push flash-all

and wait

now you have android 4.2: Laugh:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] met67:
If you have a rooted 4.1.2 stock yakju and don't want to flash a stock system image (in order not to loose root and have to re-root), you can easily change yakju to takju: the only changes from takju to yakju are these files:

/system/build.prop
/system/app/Videos.apk
/system/app/Wallet.apk

boot image, radio and the other files are the same (with the exception of the recovery, but if you are rooted you should not bother with the standard recovery...)

I remounted /system in RW, copied those files with ADB, chmod-ed them to 644, rebooted and voilà: my GNex started downloading the OTA.

I then flashed the OTA with CWM and got 4.2 and kept root.

I am attaching a zip with the files to copy over. Please note that this is not a flashable zip, you have to know how to use ADB. Also note that the files are for 4.1.2.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Stupendousman2012:
Maybe a noob question...

Hello.

I am using 4.2.1 on my GSM Galaxy Nexus. The image I am using came from Androidrootz.com. I want to update to 4.2. I had received a notification of the 4.2 update yesterday. When I attempted to apply it, it appeared to succeed, but my phone still shows 4.1.2

I have a rooted phone with CWM on it. My phone is the Takju; Maguro; Tuna version (as shown in in build.prop)

I have made a ROM backup using CWM in case something ever happens.

I want to do the 4.2 update and retain the rooting. Is there an image I can just put on my SD card and overwrite on top of what I have already with CWM that will keep the root?

I've only had this phone a couple of weeks, and am still learning about this stuff.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] horm:
thx, worked like a charm :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cuoreesitante:
Can you please provide a noob friendly walkthrough please?? :p

1.) push files to /sdcard with:

adb push [path to local file] /sdcard/

2.) mount /system rw:

adb shell

su

mount -o remount,rw -t ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 /system

3.) copy files to /system or /system/app

cat /sdcard/Videos.apk > /system/app/Videos.apk

cat /sdcard/Wallet.apk > /system/app/Wallet.apk

cat /sdcard/build.prop > /system/build.prop

My basic knowledge suggests that this may have something to do with the new mount point for the sdcard.

Maybe someone can help

So im running Stock 4.1.2 rooted with a Custom kernel

I Flashed the Stock System image and boot Image from 4.1.2 through adb and they were successfully flashed so that i can flash the OTA however i keep getting an OMAP error when applying the 4.2 update. Shouldnt the Boot image fix any OMAP errors and if so why isnt that working?

Im trying to avoid re flashing the stock image for 4.1.2 but it looks like that might be the only option

Any suggestions would be great

Can I just flash the recovery.img file from the stock takju build files from here after the above procedure?

If I don't update my recovery to takju, will I have any problems with future OTAs?

how can i flash the factory image of 4.1.2 after i download that?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] santacrab.it:
Why should you flash the 4.1.2 image after download that? :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] at1530:
i am a starter.

please tell me

i download that image from google

then what should do to complete flashing it
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] santacrab.it:
This is the procedure but you have to look around for the fastboot for your OS:

Google Images

https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images

1) Take a Nandroid Backup if you have CWM installed

2) Extract the content of the Google Image

3) Copy the contents of the Fastboot download to the same folder as where you extract the Google Image too.

4) Boot your phone into the Bootloader mode

5) Open up Command Prompt or Terminal, navigate to the folder you've extracted it all too and enter the following commands waiting for each to finish

Windows

fastboot-windows flash bootloader bootloader-maguro-primekk15.img

fastboot-windows reboot-bootloader

fastboot-windows flash radio radio-maguro-i9250xxkk6.img

fastboot-windows reboot-bootloader

fastboot-windows -w update image-yakju-icl53f.zip

Linux

./fastboot-linux flash bootloader bootloader-maguro-primekk15.img

./fastboot-linux reboot-bootloader

./fastboot-linux flash radio radio-maguro-i9250xxkk6.img

./fastboot-linux reboot-bootloader

./fastboot-linux -w update image-yakju-icl53f.zip

OSX

./fastboot-mac flash bootloader bootloader-maguro-primekk15.img

./fastboot-mac reboot-bootloader

./fastboot-mac flash radio radio-maguro-i9250xxkk6.img

./fastboot-mac reboot-bootloader

./fastboot-mac -w update image-yakju-icl53f.zip

6) The last step is to lock the bootloader. Restart the phone into the bootloader

7) Open CMD in the location of Superboot and type:

fastboot-windows oem lock

Download this file: http://xdaforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=1481935&d=1352921992

and extract the contents into a folder - (adb.exe, fastboot.exe, etc.)

Copy the Google image files to the same folder

Using command prompt (cmd in windows) go to this folder.

Terminal should read something like "C:\fastboot-and-adb>"
