Being part of the Android reference device family has many perks. Besides being the first to receive the latest updates, Google also provides factory images for users to download. These factory images are used to return phones or tablets back to out-of-box or factory condition if the need should ever arise. The Nexus S (soju and sojua) and the Galaxy Nexus (yakju an takju) have joined the ranks of the Nexus 7 (nakasi) getting their factory images posted online by Google.
The average user won?t find these all too useful. However, if you?re into rooting, ?flashing various custom ROMs or kernels, you can now sleep a little bit easier at night knowing you can always go back to stock in an emergency. If for some odd reason you have not received your official OTA update, these images can also be used to upgrade to Android Jelly Bean 4.1.1. To download the factory images, just head on over to the official factory images for Nexus devices download page.
Sadly, the Nexus S 4G as well as the Sprint and Verizon Wireless variants of the Galaxy Nexus are still waiting to to be upgraded to Jelly Bean. There has been no word from Google nor their respective carriers on when they can expect to?receive?their?official?Jelly Bean?update. Normally, the CDMA Nexus devices compared to their GSM counterparts take a bit longer to receive their updates due to having different radios. Keep your fingers crossed for timely updates.
