Not quite. More like.....some of the binaries include radio dependancies i believe. Radios are released with OTA's.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] n2d551:
So.....We got ICS Nov. and the Ota came in march. Then logically thinking, I assume another 3 to 4 months. Forgot to mention, running with kl2 not a lot of difference from lc1. Might go back to lc1 (better db in certain places) But just a thought, with binaries including radio dependencies, and not running a source built Rom (I'm on Jelly Bean) Makes me wonder if I'm getting a worse signal 'cause of that.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] snandlal:
Very possible. Binaries are directly related to hardware specifics...radio, proximity, touch response, vibrations, etc.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] n2d551:
Ha ha, the moment I diss the wait, the binaries arrived. Wow JBq said with Ota, but they came 1st, that's cool.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] n2d551:
So, I guess from what I've seen that no new radio came? Lc1
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] louderstill:
a new radio would be in a OTA i think

personally

i'l be astonished if sprint does a OTA for

a phone they dont sell any more...

altho that would be a lot of fodder for bad press

fwiw

LC1 seems a bit better on JB

in my world of krap coverage

ymmv
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] jeremy112683:
I'll have to give lc1 a try on jb then I guess.....although sprint must have done something cause my phone hasn't roamed for a few days and Pandora is working again for me
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] mikegleave13:

[Nexus S 4G Android Development] jziggy101:
I agree under JB my NS4G is actually, slightly better than a 10 year old cell phone.....
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] jeremy112683:
Back to kl2... I've noticed longer loading times and pauses in tracks on Pandora while using lc1

If you get the zip from the post in the general section you can use Odin.... worked for me that way

Hopefully they'll have it for epic soon. I recently started playing with mine again as a music player for the house. Flashed cm10 and the ns4g kl2 radio on it

[Nexus S 4G Android Development] certifiednoob93:
It works on the epics because we have the same chips. So we can use the same radios as well. All you gotta do is download .zip and flash. Its a lot better than stock epic modems

Are they doing any tower work or having tower issues in your area?
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] madeincanon:
Might be placebo, but I feel like I get better wifi signal with the new radio.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] n2d551:
Seems a little better running new 1 for a day
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] r_tarandus:
I never even considered how the radio could effect WiFi (I have a strong FiOS connection, so it's always fast).

For myself, I notice a small difference in call reception. It's nice, but still not good enough. Sometimes incoming calls aren't even received cause reception is that bad in my apartment.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] jeremy112683:
Since 8am
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] mikegleave13:
Mine is sitting at 8%. Sticking with it for now, fixing permissions got my 3G back but downloading seems slower to me...
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] xboxfanj:
It is placebo. WiFi is independent of the radio. You can flash a blank radio (don't think those exist, but if they did) and WiFi would still work.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] xboxfanj:
Can you do a speedtest to compare them at the same time? Interested to see if one performs better than the other.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] srthimsen:
I've downloaded the newest radio several times, both from my phone and from my desktop PC - md5 sums do not match.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] kdepro:
the md5sum is for the .img file not the .zip
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] charlie95113:
Trust me if I could I would but the nexus is my spare phone I'll talk to my cousin to see if he let's me switch his iPhone with my nexus for a day or two...but personally my speeds are crap with the nexus modems on both phones I can't get past 300 KB download even with speed tweeks and all ...as for the fc09 modem for the epic I get 1.5 mb down ...I'm really thinking its the area ...not the modems causing this...that's also another reason as why I'm still using my epic...
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] classic7876:
i got a question if i flash this will i be able to flash my cricket zip to be able to get data
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] chalan30:
AFAIK these radios are strictly for sprint. It could possibly jack up your phone if you aren't on sprint.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] classic7876:
thanks man it sucks that i cant run any of the roms that require this
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] xboxfanj:
That's not true. You should be fine since Cricket is the same bands as Sprint.

snadial just fyi i mirrored the grj90 radio and gave you credit for it in the deodex rom thread, it wasnt until after i posted my test one that dreams tipped me to using their updater-binary, hence why mine didnt work :) so i took the lazy way out and just used yours :P
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] takenone:
Ok my build is GRJ22 with a Baseband of D720SPRKD8, and have not received any updates from sprint. Is it safe to assume the updated radio I need from here is the KD8 radio, or is there even a specific difference? Any advice/help is much appreciated! If it matters, I'm running the latest nightly of CM7.

I am looking out for newbies who might by mistake brick a phone. It is easy to just start a new thread in the right place. Only a bozo would not recognize it and only an idiot would continue to update the thread posted in the wrong place in MAY!

Ronnie Ruff | sent from my Honeycomb pad
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] volta:
Not a scientific test, but I updated stock 2.3.5 with E1 baseband and it "worked" but I *thought* I had worse signal strength (could just be in my head or paid closer attention to signal during morning commute) and then my phone went completely black when I was in line for coffee. Had to pull battery to get it to respond.

Needless to say I had E1 active on 2.3.5 for about 30 minutes before the error here, then immediately flashed E5 back.

I am now updated to 2.3.7 Odex and re-flashed E1 and have had no problems for the past few hours.

Long story short - I wouldn't recommend E1 on 2.3.5 given my bad half hour experience.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] GeezyAF:

Yeah, apparently the baseband is SUPPOSED to say KH1, but originally was erroneously labeled KE1:

KE1 is good for GB but I am noticing that on ICS ROM (CM9, Peter's nightly) the signal is very unstable. I have another NS4G next to me and the GB stock phone has better signal all the time. I hope the official ICS OTA brings an updated radio that's stable with ICS.

Ugh ke1 with the profile and prl update, still poor service :-( any data tweaks for sprint??

If you need to go back, you can download all previous radios from Peter Alfonso's site in the form of flashable zips. I believe they're also in his section in Rom Manager.

I'm seeing pretty decent improvement with the KL2 radio.

pardon my extraordinary noobishness, but am I supposed to flash the one matching my baseband (KE1) or the 'latest' one (KL2)?

And I hear this is the easiest way to straight up brick the device —*what precautions should I take over the ones usually taken over flashing kernels, rome etc?
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] kyouko:
If you want a different baseband then you'd flash the one you want, flashing the KE1 when you already have it on your phone would be pointless. So KL2 is what you want ;)

As for precautions, I'd just make sure your phone is charged
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] Braneless:
I just updated from kh1 to the latest and my signal has gone to ****.

Wifi is now extremely weak - 1 bar and I'm 10 feet from the router. Phone signal also degraded... I am usually at -65 dba at home, now it's -76.

This is the first time I've changed radios, is it common to see poorer performance from a newer version?

Thanks to snandlal and all the other smart folks for making this stuff easy. OTA is for suckers!

Huge Improvement-Then Not

Latest leaked radio is a tremendous improvement! The new radio on a gingerbread rom is outstandingly fast! both 3g and 4g. The downside is on ics the speeds really slow down to under 0.30

3g speed on gingerbread: 1.79

4g speed on gingerbread: 12.49

3g speed on ics: 0.30

4g speed on ics: 2.79

*all these speeds had the multimedia data mod. roms were clean flashes with only task killer and speed test installed. latest prl and profile. did not try this on ics 4.0.4 leaked rom.
