[ICS][4.0.4][4/2] Official IMM76K Update Thread for the VZW GNex

[Dr0me]

Re: [ICS][4.0.4] Official IMM76K Update Thread for the VZW GNex

Oh, I have no problem with rooting or unlocking devices, but my work denies our phones on our Enterprise mobile management software if they are unlocked or rooted.
That was my primary reason to try the work around.

Eventually I will just give in and root the device though. I can't wait on those radios and software updates forever...

Thanks.

I was in the same boat. I used the strifejester method without unlocking or rooting. Good enterprise still worked after the update.

^^^^As The Dude would say, "that's a bummer man." Totally understand the work issue.

How do they know if it's unlocked and/or rooted?

Most MDM products can detect a jailbroken or Rooted device and take some type of action. I'm the Good admin at my office and I catch devices from time to time.

Airwatch agent that runs on the device can detect it. Not sure how it does, but if the phone is rooted, it will not allow connection to the company email, etc.

Thanks a million! Sick of waiting for an update from VZW that'll probably never come.
Updated and working great, the improvements are profound!
Thanks again!!!

I have updated the original post with the new OTA package. It appears that this is the same exact OTA package from before, so we'll see if they take it down. As always, the mirrors will be active.

I could be wrong, but unless I had some sort of download mishap when this was leaked a few weeks ago, this new file appears to be bigger. The previous download shows 29,881KB, but this latest file shows 40,750KB. As I said, my download could have been wonky. Dunno.

If yours is wonky, then so is mine. 40,750 here as well.

Nope think you're right... I remember the last one being around 30kb as well.

Re: [ICS][4.0.4][5/23] Official IMM76K Update Thread for the VZW

Weird, both of mine are showing 41.7 on my Mac.

This one - 41,727,304 bytes
Old one - 41,727,304 bytes



Edit: Also downloaded from one the mirrors; same size again. I'll open up her guts after my movie .

If any third party can do a similar comparison be my guest, I would greatly appreciate it. Perhaps the ghost of Jobs is toying with me?

Also, the md5's for each:

md5 for the new one - d8cddf4a824cb8beda1b03b8b5586da4

md5 for the old one - d8cddf4a824cb8beda1b03b8b5586da4

Edit: forgot a b in the "old one"; my apologies! They match 100%.

Definitely 41.7 from the last update and this new one... both packages are the same exact size just to clear things up.. not sure why I had 30kb stuck in my head.

Thanks, guys! Maybe the older DL borked on me. I don't know much about md5's except to be sure they match. When Google pulled then reposted the file, would that in any way change the md5? Those dmmarck posted above are so close to being the same. Does that mean that Google made a change?

They are the same, I forgot a b, my apologies lol

I updated the md5 post. I typed them out digit by digit, so yeah, clearly my vision is terrible when reading in Root Explorer

I blame 19 years of higher education for destroying whatever was left of my vision.

Good eye indeed, thanks for catching it lol
