    only motorola uses sbf. but i believe once we get a custom recovery we should be able to restore pretty easily.

    -take control of your nexus experience: Make the Vzw Galaxy nexus your Galaxy Nexus. Fastboot oem unlock (to find out how ask a rescue squad member).

    i installed the update before going through the steps.

    i'm not sure why, but mine failed a couple of times trying to get past the bootloader (step 7). after a few reboots and attempts (i did nothing different as far as i can tell), it worked.

    rooting was no problem. as has been reported, it hung at "google" for a few minutes but then all went well.

    thanks guys!

    best,

    I updated to 4.0.2 also and root worked. What OS do you have?

    Just need to wait for the modified stock ROM and we can unroot/lock bootloader again in case of needing to return for warranty reasons.

    Windows 7 64-bit, all my drivers are working properly, its an issue with the boot.img.

    I'm trying to just wait longer at the Google logo before battery pulling. I read somewhere else getting past the google logo took a few minutes with the unlocked boot.img

    It took about 3 minutes to reboot after running root command for me.
