How to Factory Reset Samsung Galaxy Nexus with a Stock ROM ICL53F

5:11 PM
A full factory restore stock ROM for Galaxy Nexus for those who need a quick fix and flash back to unrooted stock which also includes the radios here. Big thanks to XDA Member pentafive already taken up time putting with an Odin flashable ROM that will  revert back the Galaxy Nexus to the current unrooted release of Android 4.0.2 Ice Cream Sandwich. This will only work on both LTE and CDMA and for GSM is not yet available at this moment. This is an original stock image ICL53F with radios, kernel and recovery.

** It will bring your device back to stock running Android 4.0.2 Build ICL53F with EK05 CDMA and EK02 LTE radios.
