The update should have been pushed in 1987.
Why are you waiting for official updates?

Takes 24 hours too long, if you ask me. Who knows if that update really exists.
Because Verizon will probably send a SWAT team to his house, when they find out what he did with their phone.

Indeed. Even if you manually install the update, you need XXLA2. I tried it this morning using a different radio, and it wouldn't work. Flashed XXLA2, and I was good to go.

Can I get that Wallpaper pls :-D
It says I9250UGLA4 under my baseband. What is this?
How long does that usually take
I dunno, if rollouts started last night maybe within the next week?
You could take matters into your own hands though and get it now if you wanted.

Hours, days, weeks. No one really knows. No one, but that little Android in your phone.
Oh god, I'm on XXKK6.
I thought when I flashed yakju I would be good to go as far as updates, now I find this out.
How easy is it to just flash a different radio? Will it wipe my phone?

Jesus. I might as well do it myself or wait for a carrier to approve the update.
Hey man, they're just protecting their delicate tubes, imagine all the hundres of people with Nexus simultaneously downloading 10 megs.

Ah well, at least it's smooth now.
But guys, seriously, you wouldn't believe me when I say that updating a Windows Phone is easier than doing this shit (again). Unlocking, rooting, flashing, blah blah blah. How 2002.

No one said you had to do any of that.
It actually was easier with the N1 and NS. You could do it if you have the right update package. They changed it on the GN, which now requires root or access to fastboot. I'm guessing the secure element is to blame.
Totally late, but you still have access to the menu button, or am I missing the complaint?

seriously, playing River City Ransom on my phone with a PS3 controller via bluetooth was nothing short of magical.
You could just wait for the actual update? :/
Do you mean 3.1 or is 3.2 hiding from normal people?
There's 3.2 mirrors floating around the last few pages of the topic at RootzWiki. Not sure why it's not updated in the OP, but here it is: http://rootzwiki.com/topic/28677-ro...ts-all-about-speed/page__st__7580#entry800965. I used the 7/11 gapps in the OP.

Why would I? Google released the update yesterday and for some reason my phone didn't get it, so I did it myself.
But yes, maybe I am a little impatient.
Radios don't erase data.
However, unless you're really really comfortable with flashing, don't do it. It's the one thing that could render your phone unusable with no way to fix yourself.
I'm not comfortable with flashing really, I had to follow a guide to get to yakju.
So, now that I'm on yakju am I STILL ineligible for the 4.1 OTA?
You're no ineligible, per se. There's a yakju ota floating around already, you should be able to use that one, no?
Rooted/unlocked?
Unlocked bootloader, not rooted.
I'm just confused because I've heard people on xda say that only yak/takju's with XXLA2 radios are getting the update. Here I am with a yakju XXKK6 so I don't know where I fall on getting the 4.1 update.
Why did you mention the radio btw? The only radio issues I saw were with takju builds. Link to the issue?
e: oh, I wouldn't worry about it then, xda people are crazy for the most part. I was using xxlf1 radio and I got the update on takju.
I would do this, seems to be the easiest. You can do 3-8 through the toolkit.
Download the OTA file and do this:
1) Download the correct update for your build on to your computer;
2) Copy the file to /sdcard on your device;
3) Download CWM from here and place it on your computer in the same directory as your fastboot binary. For CDMA/LTE devices, use this version;
4) Rename the CWM image to cwm.img
5) Reboot into fastboot mode;
6) Open a command prompt in the same directory;
7) Type fastboot devices to make sure your device is recognized;
8) Type fastboot boot cwm.img
9) Select "install zip from sdcard";
10) Select "choose zip from sdcard";
11) Select the update the you just copied to your device;
12) Wait until it completes. Reboot. Done.
My secure element killed itself long ago. I really wish they would make a fix that does not require me getting a whole new phone.

FYI I originally got it using the Wallbase app on the Play Store
That is the EXACT feeling I felt when I used a Nexus One the other day (FYI I had a N1 previous to my GNex). I was like WTF, I enjoyed using a device this small

I do still have access to it but it would always be a guessing game as to whether an app used the overflow menu without the visual cue on the app itself. With the menu always on the pie, I wouldn't ever know without always clicking it.
Heh, use a Note for a few weeks then hold an iPhone. It is a shocking feeling.

I got a hold a note for the first time a few weeks ago. Glad I didn't get it, my GN pocket bulge is big enough as it is.
Oh, is anyone using aokp M6 or has everyone moved on to JB?
Wait, what if I lose my Galaxy Nexus, can I somehow wipe all data or something like on iOS?
By the way, I love holding the phone in my hand, even though it still takes time getting used to the size. I'm still bummed Navigation is showing bad direction and that it doesn't change dynamically that fast but cool it's showing the location when I arrive at a destination and telling me about the traffic but I have yet to get any other card than the weather and how many minutes it'll take to get home.

I don't know how tight your pants are but my Note has no bulge. It may be thinner than the Nexus. When I had a GN, I thought it was about the perfect size and the Note would be unbearable. I like the Note plenty now, though, but the Nexus is about perfect feeling. Possibly due to its curved shape, too.
I'm fine on build 40 AOKP. I'd rather not go through a clean install when JB is around the corner.
Plan B on the Play Store.

I should make a thread for people to post their phone bulges. I wear normal pants but it looks so noticeable. Guess it's back to jnco.

Like I said, both the GN and the Note are nearly just as thick. You're confusing screen size with thickness.
Thank you Bboy AJ, so now I know if anything happens. 
I actually found out how to get my Google contacts to my Galaxy Nexus but now I have duplicate numbers some of my contacts, because I created them locally on the phone first. I have tried manually erasing the one number with 'edit' in a contact but the number comes back up. I can't for the life of me notice, how I'll get rid of the duplicate numbers?

Log into your Gmail account on your computer, click on contacts, under 'more' there should be an option to find and merge duplicates. Sync your contacts on your phone when done and that SHOULD do the trick.
