A leaked build of Android 4.2.2 for the Verizon Samsung Galaxy Nexus has finally made its way on to the web. This ROM (version JDQ39) was pulled straight from Google's servers supposedly, which likely means it should be coming very soon. Here's our original post below on the subject, shared by wicked this morning.
Thanks to XDA member mwalt2, we now have the new radios from the Android 4.2.2 (JDQ39) update available for download.
There hasn't been much testing thus far so it's tough to tell what kind of difference these can make in network connectivity, battery life, etc.
You can flash this over any ROM but make sure you make a backup first just in case. You can flash the .zip in recovery just like any other .zip file.
As always, flash at your own risk.
