Don't see 4.0.4 in AOSP yet though. Dropping around the same time?

Poor Nexus is still floating on 4.0.2 . . . get it together Google.

Google has already said that there are some issues it's been looking at with 4.04 which is why the Gnex and Nexus S haven't gotten it.

Read that too, I'm just impatient. :p

There was a reference to 4.0.5 in that French publication a week or so back too, for what thats worth.

Asus has been teasing an update with new features as well, wonder if they'll be pushing the 4.0.4 update out to the Primes soon.

There are some GSM GNex still stuck on 4.0.1 with no official update. I don't know if that's Samsung or carrier issue though.

4.0.1 was actually smoother for me. 4.0.2 hiccups here and there when scrolling in the app drawer. Battery life is better on 4.0.2 so I've stuck with it. That and StickMount only works on 4.0.2 and up.

Still on 4.01. Damn carrier need this update to fix those last two irritating issues.

GNexus keeps randomly rebooting.

manually downloaded the update directly from Google server and applied the 4.0.4 update.

But after the update, photo upload to Picasa is broken for me. I can't chose the folder to upload to and the upload fails. I haven't read anyone else reporting this so something might have screwed up with my update. I would hate to have to flash the stock Google 4.0.4 image. That would wipe the data on my phone.

Edit: Found the cause of the picture upload problem. It's not the 4.0.4 update. It's because Dropbox beta is syncing with the same Gmail address. Once I removed Dropbox from my sync account, the problem went away.
