Please help! My Galaxy Nexus is stuck at boot animation

[AbhishekS]

I got my Galaxy Nexus 3-4 days back and have been using it pretty nicely. Suddenly today while activating bluetooth via an application called 'Notification Toggle', my phone crashed and the boot animations begun to come up.

The animation were taking a lot of time so I pulled the battery out, re-inserted it but was still stuck at the boot animation.
Then I charged my phone for about 45 minutes - 1 hour, tried booting up again but still stuck at that animation.

I am from India and the Galaxy Nexus is not launched here officially so it's not even under warranty.

Please help me, what can I do? I'm really worried and don't have much knowledge about Android (as this is my first Android phone).
My phone is running Android 4.0.4 ICS and is GSM unlocked.

I request any of you to please post a detailed solution so that I can get my phone up and running. I'm fine if there is any sort of data loss but I'll prefer to have my data restored.

Thanks in advance.

I wouldn't say that I've been experiencing the same problem as you described. Meanwhile, before Droid I was using IPhone 3G. And I can say that several times both of phones were completely stuck for lot's of hours or even a day/night without any reasons. But then, they become alive again without any sign of what has happened. I'm not experienced technically, but I think that each system has it's own recovery settings which continue to work even when system is off. Or when the system couldn't repair itself it's just restarting after sometime. If you bought your Nexus officially, and it's not have been used and "raped", then I think it should be back soon.

Is it unlocked or rooted? if so I would recomend using fastboot to restore it to complete stock condition. If not..... I have no clue

Are you rooted or have a custom recovery? If so, just wipe data and reflash your current ROM.

If your phone is bone stock, you will more than likely have to download the device's stock fast boot images and flash them.

I'm not sure how this will affect your unlocked radio. Maybe someone else can help you from here.
