Hi Steve

Did a master reset, but still no Jellybean. Been reading a few more technical 
documents and it might be that my phone is just one of the ones that is still 
waiting, as there are a lot of different variations of Samsung models with 
strange sounding chinese names.  Have contacted the seller on Amazon and they 
are going to look into it. Although I doubt they will come back with anything 
useful.

I do have a backup related question though. Before I did the master reset I 
used the backup and reset to backup my apps and data etc. Maybe I have 
misunderstood this, but I thought it would restore the apps I'd downloaded 
before the reset. It did restore the big ben for chimetime which I purchased 
when I went to download chimetime again, but not all the other apps. I'd have 
thought there would be a button or check box for restoring apps, rather than 
the one that is for restoring app data. 

Any ideas? I've probably missed something obvious.

Cheers 

Darren.

  Hi Darren,

   

  A master reset will only reset and remain on 4.04.  It wouldn't harm to try 
it.  Steve is certainly stumped for the moment.

   

  All the best

  Hi Steve
   
  yes it updated to 4.04 after connecting to my wi fi. I expected it to offer 
me the next update shortly afterwards, but obviously it didn't. 

   

  I have been reading about Android and on the xda forum hey recommend getting 
an app which will alter the RIF to match the baseband. At this stage though I 
don't want to tweak any of the ROM. 

   

  Just wondering whether a master reset would help?  It can't harm and wil only 
reset to defaults. The firmware wil remain at 4.04, and not revert back to 4.02.


  I've emailed the seller on Amazon as other reviewers have said they have 
updated to Jellybean over a week ago. So why isn't mine!!! I'm very tempted to 
return the phone and get one from elsewhere, but Amazon are the cheapest so not 
sure what to do?  It's bloody annoying. 

  Maybe you should have a new part in 'our place' called Steve is Stumped? 

   

  Cheers

   

  Darren.

    Hi Darren,

     

    I don't know what to think.  Mine is LA2 as well.

     

    Are you even on 4.04?

     

    All the best

    Hi Steve

     

    Baseband version i9250 xx la2

     

    I've been googling like mad to try and find others with the same problem, 
but had no luck. I assumed there must be different versions of the samsung 
galaxy nexus but didn't know what determined that.

     

    It was bought as a SIMM free phone and I've tried my vodafone SIMM in it 
and still no luck. As it's a SIMM free phone I didn't think it would make any 
difference trying with the SIMM and have mainly been trying on Wi fi.  I know 
there is nothing wrong with the phone, but keep wondering why I'm not being 
offered the update. 

    Anyhow I'll see what you come up with. 

     

    thanks 

     

    Darren.

      Hi Darren,

       

      All you can do is keep trying the steps or wait for the update to push.  
If it is a Sim-free phone, then I would have expected you to have it by now.  
Can you give me one piece of information?  Go into Settings, About Phone, and 
look down the screen for the Baseband version.  Please tell me what that is, 
and I'll take a look.  If it's a European phone, it may not be pushed yet.  But 
give me the baseband and I'll try to find out.

       

      Thanks.

       

      All the best

       

      Steve

      Hi Steve

       

      I tried your suggestions and enabling web scripts works a treat. However 
Jellybean still refuses to come through and my phone still thinks it's up to 
date?

       

      It's a bit of a mystery as to why it isn't updating. I'm on vodafone and 
bought the nexus from Amazon. Guess I will have to be patient and see what 
happens, unless you have any more suggestions?

       

      Darren.

        Hi Steve

         

        As usual you are a fountain of knowledge.

         

        I've got some more podcasts to listen to, including 'our place' so will 
see what other little gems I can gleam from them.

         

        Thanks a lot

         

        Darren.

          Hi Darren,

           

          Please do the following with your Nexus.

           

          1.        Go into Settings, Apps.

          2.        Click on the All tab.  You have Running, Downloaded and All.

          3.        Look for Google Services Framework and click on it.

          4.        Click Clear Data.  Not clear Cache, Clear Data.

          5.        When prompted, select OK to are you sure you want to clear 
the data.

          6.        Now go back into About Phone, System Updates and check for 
update.

          You will probably get Jellybean.

           

          Now for your web problem.

           

          This works with Ice Cream Sandwich as well.

           

          1.        Go into Settings, Accessibility.

          2.       Right down the bottom you will find Web Scripts.  In 
Jellybean it is called Web Content, and it will say Not Allowed.  Click on it, 
and it will ask are you sure?  Select OK, so that web scripts or content are 
allowed.

          Now the web will be accessible.

           

          All the best

          Hi list

           

          I received a Galaxy Nexus on Friday and have been playing around with 
it on and off since then. It arrived with version 4.02 of the operating system 
and after connecting to my wi fi it informed me that a new update was 
available. As Steve Nut has remarked it's very easy you just click on install 
and wait for the phone to reboot and it's installed. So now I have version 4.04 
(Ice cream sandwich)  However I know there is another update, but when I 
checked in settings / about and did a check for updates it informed me that I 
have the latest version. So where is Jellybean? Do I just have to be patient 
and it will eventually come through? I know the Nexus doesn't require a custom 
ROM. Does anyone else on here have a Nexus which has updated to Jellybean and 
did you have to wait a while for it?

           

          A few other queries.

          I turned off the vibration feedback in the talkback settings as I 
don't find it necessary. However when the phone gets turned off and back on the 
vibration feedback returns. Is there a way of permantly disabling this feature.

           

          I am currently just using talkback as my screen reader. However the 
browser is completely inaccessible and does not speak anything on a webpage. Do 
I need to install mobile accessibility in order to read web pages? Will 
Jellybean allow webpages to be accessible using talkback?

           

          Many thanks

           

          Darren.
