Flash the CM9 Nightly for maguro ... best ROM i've tried yet

Also, I would advise you to wait a couple of months, the new iphone and the new nexus's (rumored to be one for each manufacturer) come out

I doubt the new nexus's would be worth it or affordable it and no way iphone.

I'm sure the price then is not gonna be much different than the price now ... and i'm sure the upgrades for the camera alone are worth it. I like my nexus however the camera is disastrous for such a high end device... also battery life is terrible even for smartphone standards. So yea I'm sure it's worth the wait...

Also why is it "no way iPhone" ? I had an iPhone 4 and I have nothing but good things to say about it...

The price of the iphone would alone be very high and the new nexus devices will enter the market at which is to much for me.

So i got the galaxy nexus i love it but i m still on 4.02 nd i don't have 4.04 update why is that? Is it the same for you?
Yes thank you very much i will wait to get the factory image for jb thank you i just want to know did you do the same thing and were did you get your phone from
yes this is what i did to update my nexus since i am not willing to wait for OTA updates.
I received my nexus as a gift from a relative in Canada.

get this... If it says anytihng other than yakju (the likes of yakjuxw) then your phone is updated by samsung (through the original carrier) and not google thus i recommend to flash the official google yakju rom onto your phone because good luck waiting for the updates if you don't !


EDIT : the app was pulled from the play store apparently, try to find the apk it's GN official update checker

EDIT2: this is a good alternative to check with

yes you can flash yakju so you start getting updates from google (faster than samsung) and yes you need to unlock the bootloader.
i just got my android 4.1 Jelly Bean pushed to my phone OTA.

no you dont. in my older post i gave the 2 links. This is what you do:
if you dont have the Galaxy nexus drivers installed on your pc use this http://pdanet.co/bin/PdaNetA302x64.exe install this software it comes with the Galaxy nexus drivers
steps

1 download the image 4.0.4 yakju from the first link i gave you in the older post.

2 download the toolkit from the second link i gave you in the older post and install it.

3 copy the image you downloaded the toolkit, there is folder there named put_imge_here copy it there.

4 put your phone in FastBoot mode. t urn off the phone, press and hold the vol+ vol- and at the same time press and hold the power button. green android should appear with it its door open dont press anything on the phone after that.

5 connect your phone to your pc, and run toolkit. select your android version from the list.

6 after that you should see long list of options. you want the Extract and Flash Google Factory Stock Rom command. and select it.

toolkit should extract the image and flash it your phone

that is the method I used

Yes it's very advisable to flash yakju ... don't worry unlocking the bootloader and loading the stock rom (which you get from google's website) is very easy many online guides exist
