Has anyone had any luck with this method of forcing the Jellybean 4.1 update?

1.  From your phone, head into Settings>Apps>All.

2.  Search for  Google Services Framework.

3.  Once found, tap on it and choose Force stop.

4.  Then choose Clear data.

5.  Back out of Apps to your About page in Settings and check for the System update.

Did you realize that there might be a existing discussion already in the Galaxy Nexus space?

Check out '4.1.1 JR003O Update from IMM76K on Galaxy Nexus'

I probably tried it 20 times over the course of a day to get it to work for me.

No such luck here, but not having a SIM card in the Nexus might have something to do with the delay for me.

Wouldn't now having a SIM card effect a lot more than just the ability to update?

Not really. The SIM card was just being utilized in another device.

I finally updated tonight to Jelly Bean. I lost track of how many times I tried this trick.

Ironically I reverted back to stock, and update showed up 15 minutes later.  Update goes by Device ID and not all at once.

Just tried it twice.  First time was a fail, but it worked the second time.  Jelly Bean is Installing NOW.  And THAT is all kinds of awesome.
