[Verizon] Verizon Galaxy Nexus (Toro) is back on AOSP!?

I said this in the GNex watering hole, but will repeat here, what if Verizon agreed to give Samsung/Google everything for VZW GNex to go back to AOSP, in exchange for getting the bootloader encrypted on the GS3?

dirty deeds lol

Lol. Interesting & thought provoking

I thought of it to give my fellow coworker a hard time about his GS3.

lol nice. I think Google owning Motorola may have had something to do with it also. Ignoring Google's request when its a single phone is one thing.

Ignoring it when they now own one of your largest manufacturers, and many of your flag ship devices is something else...

Does this mean that our update to JB will come from Google or do we still have to wait for Verizon blessings?

My guess, is it would still be pushed by VZW. Hopefully, in a more timely manner though.

Holy crap, I have been syncing repo on this sucker for 2.5 hours now! I thought that I had properly specified the android 4.1.1 branch, but it looks like I'm now downloading gapps from every version.... ugh. "/Packages/Apps/Calendar", and above it has android 2.2.1, 3.0, 3.1, etc. Doing this over Wifi was a baaaaaaaaaad idea.
