[Q] How to update Nexus S model i9023 to 4.2.1 - General Questions and Answers

Hello,
I have Samsung Google Nexus S currently with 4.1.2 android version. My phone model is i9023. I have found a post where for model number i9200, 4.2.1 is available. Is there any update available for i9023 as well? I am disparately looking forward for the update. Please help :crying:

Now Google don't do updates for Nexus S.
If you want 4.2.1 then you need unofficial ROMs

Nexus s - overcoming status 7 when running OTA update to Jelly Bean

Hi Folks!
I am retuning newbie to the XDA forum but, I cut my teeth on the original XDA... But, Android is a new arena...
I have Nexus S - i9020 - no suffix, GSM, purchased in the UK.
1. I am currently running a rooted installation of ICE 4.0.4. The recent OTA update to Jelly Bean failed with a status 7 - from my research, it's probably because I am running rooted - ?
2. I tried to return to stock state and that's where a bewildering array of stock images where suggested on other threads on this forum. The problem is; where can I find a stock ICE ROM for my i9020 device?
3. Incidentally, it would be good if somebody could provide a breakdown of model number and whether stock ROMs are interchangeable?
4. If I inadvertently try to flash an incorrect ROM, will the checks stop the process or do I run the risk of bricked device?
Thanks for your attention.

Thanks for the reply.
I fixed the problem using the "international" ROM version of stock ICS 4.0.4 ROM - I flash that to unroot the phone, then applied OTA update.
Thanks again.

[STOCK FILES] 4.1.1 JRO03S Build - system + kernel

This is NOT a ROM!
This is for development purposes only.
These are the system files of the latest Nexus 7 4.1.1 build JRO03S which came with my C9O I got yesterday.
Since I have been asked to upload those files I guess it's a good idea to make them available for all developers.
The files have been pulled straight from root/system, kernel as a separate *.img.
DOWNLOAD
If the files aren't reachable please send me a PM.
If the files are already available elsewhere please delete this thread.
Is this just a variant of 4.1.1?

Build date?
Aug 21 23:30:33 UTC 2012
ro.build.version.incremental=444012
just read from my Nexus 7 C90
Can someone with the JRO03S installed from the factory (NOT someone who just flashed this) please verify that the JRO03S comes from the factory with bootloader 3.34 installed like JRO03D? If you need help getting the bootloader version, just reboot into the bootloader and it'll be right there on your screen.
Thanks!
Kernel : Not working with Paranoid Android v2.15
Doesn't work on my side, the system wont boot. I dont know what is wrong with this but i'm stuck on the boot animation.
Incompatibility with C7O ? or bad backup?

What version of JB do I need for my Nexus S?

Hi guys,
I have a UK amoled nexus s.
Im running CM9 stable w/ clockworkmod.
My phone is labeled as 'GT-I9020'.
Can anyone confirm what version of the official/genuine Jellybean distro I need?
Also, I take it I need to restore to the official/genuine/signed version of ICS to do the upgrade?
Thanks
I upgraded to CM10-M1 and love it.

Hi, my device info that i can see on my phone is,
Model number : SCH-I535

Use an ruu corresponding to your device information and run it after re locking the bootloader.

Well didn't your flash counter trip so you can't receive the update?
