Changelog for Galaxy Nexus 4.0.4

I found a changelog for the CDMA Verizon Galaxy Nexus. I know this isn’t a Canadian release, but the changes seen on the CDMA device, we will most likely seen on our GSM version as well in a 4.0.4 of our own, or straight to 4.0.5 in March.

XDA posts the following changes:

  • Noticeably Faster
  • Android OS bug fixed (in battery stats)
  • Long-pressing on a blank spot on the last page of app tray bug is gone
  • 3G/4G switching better.
  • Improved signal strength
  • New Power Menu
  • PRIMELA03 Boot loader
  • Faster boot up time
  • Auto-brightness Functionality changed. Smooth transition
  • Holding down camera button now refocuses again
  • Multi touch issue seems resolved
  • Auto rotate is faster
  • Browser performance noticeably improved
  • Recent apps list opens faster
  • Miscellaneous camera UI changes
  • Increased volume
  • Keyboard fixes
  • Updated News & Weather app UI
  • Improved quick controls in browser

Within this list, the things that stood out the most to me are the AOS Bug fix, better signal strength, faster auto-rotation, performance and increased volume.

Many of these things in the list are the things I was griping about when this phone first came out. It’ll be interesting to see if we’ll get our GSM fixes in either a 4.0.4 of our own or straight to 4.0.5 in March. Even more interesting to see if we will see any GSM leaks before the official OTA push for us rooters.
