Credits
- Google - for developing Jellybean, the best version of Android yet!

- Goo.im - a great host and resource for developers and the Android community in general
- Anyone I may have missed - thanks for all your contributions!
Requirements
- GSM Galaxy Nexus (GT-i9250) - your version does not matter (yakju, takju, etc)
- ClockworkMod or TeamWin Recovery
Screenshots
Instructions
1. If you are on any 4.0.x ROM, it is highly suggested you do a full factory reset (wipe data/cache in recovery) prior to flashing Jellybean!
2. If you are upgrading from a 4.1.2 JB ROM you may be able to just wipe cache and dalvik cache.
- Wipe accordingly as outlined above
- Use your recovery to flash the ROM file
- Do NOT flash any gapps - they are all included
- Optionally, flash the baseband (radio) update if you'd like the newest one
- Reboot - be patient, the initial boot may take a few minutes
