Nexus S gets 4.0.3 and now 4.0.4!?! Wheres the love?

[nuchdog]

I know rumors are April for a 4.0.5 release and we did see a 4.0.4 leak, but the Galaxy Nexus is supposed to be Google's flagship phone now. It seems like the Nexus S has the priority right now, but why would that be? How much of an official release is carrier specific?

Just not feeling very loved right now...

Patience friend... Meanwhile I sit here playing with my Nexus S 4G still stuck on Gingerbread !

Where is OUR love?

 

[axne1]

There has been a way to install 4.0.4 on our VZW GN's for months now.

I read that our phones are getting 4.0.5 and it is currently being tested by VZW.

There is tons of bugs with 4.0.2, like low volume and random reboots, to name a few.

It looks like it's more than just the Nexus S getting updates:

The HSPA+ GN is getting a 4.0.4 bump too.

I guess I broke the first rule of "leak" club?
I asked about it and an hour later it was announced

 

[deltasig]

mind you this incremental update released today is only for those Nexus S owners who have ICS, majority of Nexus S owners are in the same boat as NS4G owners. But my guess is it will be pushed out soon to all of us.

I have had 4.0.4 since the leak hit and its been great. I think one of the reasons someone would think about getting a Gnex is that it is very easy to upgrade and apply any update google pushes out without waiting for OEMs to develope thier version of it. this is why i could care less if its not official, we have the ability to appy it anyways.

The other issue is that the official 4.0.2 doesn't play well with accessories, specifically docks. Because of this, Samsung isn't pushing out accessories. An official update is pretty important if we want to see OEM docks, etc.

**Official is GSM model only

**Unofficial has been available for months. Runs great.

 

[Droid800]

Who cares? I mean, really. We know an update is coming. Why waste your energy complaining?

I think its safe to say 4.0.5 could very much come next month, mainly for CDMA devices.

 

[SleepyTheDon]

We get no love on the CDMA side

Good for them. I love seeing the older Nexus phones getting updates and being taken care of. One of the major reasons I wanted a GNEX. I haven't had any issues so I'm fine to wait patiently. If I did, or I get antsy, I'll root

Interesting point someone made about the accessories. I don't use any (case/charger), but never understood why they don't want to take the people's money who would.

one of the selling points on the phone was the speed of its updates. Based on what I have seen so far this is completely bogus
