Like many others out there, if you are tired of Verizon delaying the official Android 4.1 update for their 4G LTE-enabled Samsung Galaxy Nexus, you are in for some good news. A newly released ROM based on the JRO03L AOSP build has just arrived.
The code, hit the AOSP servers recently and provides absolutely the purest Jelly Bean experience you could expect from the device. Moreover, it’s more or less the same thing that you will get when an official update takes place.
The updates are as follows:
August 2
- Incorporated new proprietary binaries for Galaxy Nexus from Google Developer page.
- Updated SuperSU v0.94.
August 7
- Updated to new AOSP build JRO03L.
- Due to weirdness with GAPPs, incorporated into ROM with working versions of Gallery, Camera, and Calendar.
- Included new Google Wallet (GAPP no longer needed).
August 8
- Added patch for carrier check disable on Portable Wi-Fi hotspot.
- Moved files to Goo.im file hosting.
Although no official changelog is available yet, the ROM can be applied to the Google's new Nexus 7 tablet. However, Google is expected to release an update for this one sooner rather than later.
However, when the release will happen is anyone’s guess,. If you are not reluctant to root your device and flash some custom software, you could head over to the XDA Developers link that will help you further.
