The "Official" Waiting for an Update Thread

[rpdonald]

A phone should work out of the box. No rooting and romming should be needed to make a phone work. I hate that excuse "well if you haven't rooted then what's the point of your phone"

If that's what it makes for the phone to work I won't be surprised if people stop buying androids eventually.

There are absolutely no benefits to rooting except for roms for battery life. I can do everything on the nexus, screenshots, tether etc.

It seems as though to have a properly working nexus you HAVE to root by some peoples definition.

BS>>>>This is why I don't post much here any more, because of guys like you who have to argue a point that is an opinion, please...if you don't like what I posted don't respond. Are you rooted? Do you even know the benefits of rooting a device like this? Probably not, I have a few choice words for you but not appropriate for this forum, you can guess what they are....haha.

Not only is your reasoning ridiculous, you also have trouble reading or comprehending.
Beneath my username it clearly states Galaxy Nexus BAMF Paradigm.

That means I'm using an alternate ROM.
I have rooted every Android device I've ever owned.

Knowing the benefits of rooting doesn't mean that I have to fall in line with the ridiculous logic that a $600 phone isn't supposed to work properly until it's been tweaked by the user.

Looks like this thread is dead. 4.0.4 appears to be breaking. 4.0.5 was nothing more than a trolling pipedream.

I bet we'll see 4.0.5 at some point. We will just have to be patient

I dont think it'll be to far behind this update.Lets say middle June,any bets?

Wasn't 4.1 being tested in a NDA? I vaguely something blowing up on twitter about this as P3Droid hand his hands on it. I'm sure its possible but unlikely at this point.

Will this next update help with battery at all. I'm not happy at all with my battery life on the nexus it's horrible. God forbid I use this phone even with texting the battery flies on it

Barely used any internet on it it's been about 4.5 hours...several texts it's at 72 percent
