% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.
HAPPY HAPPY…JOY JOY! For some of you. After hearing some Galaxy Nexus users post that they were receiving an Android 4.2 OTA update, someone drops the update on the net. Crazy how fast this stuff moves. So if you are on a GSM Galaxy Nexus, it is time for you to enjoy some Android 4.2. Click the link below and enjoy. Be sure to let us know if it is working and how great it is. Make sure you follow the methods below.
Method 1 – CWM 5.5.0.2 or 5.5.0.4 (i.e., NON-touch) recovery installed
EDIT: For those flashing a Jelly Bean update, in order to retain your CWM recovery, use the “revised” Method 1 here by Revoked instead of using the Method 1 below. (The method 1 below will work just fine for JB — but you will need to re-flash CWM, and rename /system/etc/install- recovery.s h once you are booted.)
1) Download the correct update for your build on to your computer;
2) Open the archive and delete the recovery folder; EDIT: Do NOT do this step if it you are using any Jelly Bean update, i.e., JRN84D or newer.
3) Copy the file
to /sdcard on your device;
4) Reboot into CWM;
5) Select “install zip from sdcard”;
6) Select “choose zip from sdcard”;
7) Select the update the you just copied to your device;
8) Wait until it completes. Reboot. Done.
