    Unhappy Problem with update to IMM76K on rooted device

    Hi,

    I recently unlocked and rooted my Verizon Samsung Galaxy Nexus phone using Wug's Galaxy Nexus Root Toolkit. Despite not knowing what the heck I was doing, I followed the excellent detailed instructions and was able to root and use my phone for wireless tethering. (Honestly, I don't even know what a ROM is, never mind how to Flash it, so my success was a small miracle.) Today, I was prompted for the OTA update to IMM76K. Overconfident from my recent wireless tether victory, I figured the worst that could happen was that I'd have to reroot my phone. I pressed the update now button and a few seconds later ended up with an image of the android icon laying on his back with a red triangle with an exclaimation point sticking out of his chest. I don't know what that means but I'm pretty sure it's not a good. If someone can provide some idiot-proof advice on how to get my phone working again and either revive android guy or put him out of his misery, I'd be very grateful!

    Thank you for the quick response and the warm welcome. Funny thing...after about an hour or so of lying on his back, Android guy just went away and my phone rebooted itself good as new. Guess he figured he wasnt getting any sympathy from me and gave up!

    It would be, but now in version 1.5 that model is included.
