[Nexus S Android Development] Ok_Kaleidoscope5109:
what do you do when you can't even register on your carrier's network?

I flashed KF1 today and that's what happened.... I've flashed KB2, KD1 (all through ADB) and I still don't have signal. WTF.
[Nexus S Android Development] fleischbanane:
I got the same problem. Even sending the phone to samsung didn't solve the problem.

But then i found the solution. You have to flash the radio via fastboot and not via recovery.

My Nexus work now perfekt with KF1. :)

Hope it will work for you too, because then I will know that this solved the problem.
[Nexus S Android Development] mellodic78:
This has to be done on a PC tho, right? I'll try that. Hopefully that will work. Have you done the HSDPA Tweak? If so, would you be able to screenshot your build.prop file? I just want to make sure the lines of coding are in the right place. I put them all the way at the end, like the instructions said, but there is info about my rom right before it. I'm just a little concerned it might not be right. Thanks in advance.

For the hsdpa tweak you do not need to use adb pull/push and notepad to add something at the end of a file, just type echo "ro.ril.hsxpa=2" >> build.prop in a shell (adb shell) and do the same for the other lines.

Herring is correct since its Board description, not Device description.

I would try another SIM card with different Provider - just to test, or flash radio take battery out and wait for at least 10 minutes. Sometimes it also helps if you just reboot and live your Phone resting for a couple of hours (had that on one Desire HD that I flashed).

Try these things out.
[Nexus S Android Development] 3rdcoast:
You need the samsung USB drivers and then flash the radio.img (you'll find it inside the .zip versions) file via fastboot. Most of those radios that leave you with no signal will flash properly from fastboot.

[Nexus S Android Development] Naa Laa:
brainmaster,

I had tried your ROM couple of months back but didn't work well for me at that time so I re-flashed MIUI from miui.us (miuiandroid.com version doesn't work well either on my phone).

Maybe its time to give it a second chance!
[Nexus S Android Development] polobunny:
You got an EFS backup? I know flashing KF1 a while back made my modem stop working completely, had to revert to KD1 and push my efs to get a connection.

I had the same issue, I got it to work by reflashing a know good radio (in my case UCKF1) make sure it connected, then reflashing my radio of choice (in my case XXKB3), all good, no need to mess with EFS

Makes sense haha! Honestly didn't remember who made the script.
[Nexus S Android Development] Ok_Kaleidoscope5109:
My way to get signal back after losing it was to push my EFS backup through. I went from KF1 back to KB2, UCKD1, UCKF1, etc, and I had NO luck at all. No signal whatsoever. I had to use EFS backup in the end to restore it all.

If anyone has an easier way to get signal back let me know.

If you flashed the radio correctly you will already be using it on reboot,

You can double check by taking a look at Settings, About Phone and you'll be able to see the baseband version there.

Can anyone help me please?
[Nexus S Android Development] htcdude486:
Forgive me if I'm wrong but I believe the 'a' variant of Nexus S's ship with the UC variant of radio? That's us up in Canada on Rogers/Fido, not sure where else.

Why would they give us a phone with a capped.connection?! Anyone have any insight?

I'm currently on UCKF1, not the fastest of what I've tried but the most stable connection, and at the end of the day I need it as a phone.
[Nexus S Android Development] 3rdcoast:
I've asked several times and can't find an answer to that. I'm on the same Canuck NS. I keep going back to XXKD1 that I find far faster especially with upstream. All of the UC radios are capped as far as I can tell.
[Nexus S Android Development] htcdude486:
Same here, XXKD1 is the best I've tried yet for speed, but I get a terrible signal with it in my house and have missed important calls because of it!

I've tried multiple times to flash XXKF1, but get no connection with that radio for some reason.

Tasker profile may be in order, UCKF1 in my house and then when I leave, automatically flashes to KD1! :) Only kidding.
[Nexus S Android Development] xtracrispy:
Canadian on the Rogers/Fido network, off a Koodo Nexus S.

I initially had some problems with getting no signal... and then I tried flashing the UCK KF1 multiple times, exact same procedure and one time I got lucky, haha.

The phone booted to only 1 bar... and after a few minutes it climbed, now sitting at max signal strength. Usually I get 2-3 bars from my current position, it's showing 4 right now.

Signal is showing -81 dB, but what's 16asu mean?
[Nexus S Android Development] 3rdcoast:
Like a fool I once again tried the UCxxxxx radios and for the life of me I'll never understand why the speed is capped. Back to the trusty XXKD1 and I'm not going to bother with newer radios again. The signal strength is fine and I don't see it any less than than the KF1. Speeds however especially upstream are way way faster on KD1.

So if speed matters on your i9020A to you Rogers/Bell/Fido/Telus users then XXKD1 is your friend.

Bottom line, ~4Mbs/400Kbs on KF1 vs ~6Mbs/3Mbs on KD1 is no contest.

[Nexus S Android Development] jark99:
whats the difference between when people say flash via CMW? or Fastboot?...... should i be doing Clockwork mod?
[Nexus S Android Development] GSO:
Just a word of caution. Be very careful when flashing a radio. Doing it wrong can brick your phone bigtime and that would be terrible. If you don't know the exact difference between cwm recovery and fastboot I suggest that you learn about it before flashing radio's.

Good luck with it
[Nexus S Android Development] jark99:
Most of the time when i flashed radios on previous android devices its done thorough CMW. I went to the 1st post and it also says flash through CMW......im just confused why some people are posting in here to flash through fastboot??? its just confusing when ive been flashing through CMW for awhile....
[Nexus S Android Development] GSO:
Oke, that explains it :)! To flash the radio's from this thread you must extract the zipfile and the radio.img must be flashed through fastboot.
[Nexus S Android Development] steve.garon:
Hum ... no. All these zips looks to be CWM flashable. At least the UCKD1 is CWM flashable since I am the one who created it and designed it so I could flash it on my phone through CWM...
[Nexus S Android Development] jark99:
I dont think thats how it works though? according to the OP he says to use this method....which is what ive been using for awhile now....

USUALLY you flash the "zip" file......are people now flashing the .img files??? SO CONFUSED

[Nexus S Android Development] apreichner:

I9020A on Telus with KB3: http://www.speedtest.net/android/62046040.png

I just switched to UCKD1 today, I'm going to go back to exact same location where I got my KB3 result above.

How do you know if you have more "stable" connection or not?
[Nexus S Android Development] ykphuah:
I have always flashed thru fastboot.

1. Unzip the zip file, there should be a radio.img, or something.img.

2. boot the phone to fastboot by pressing the volume up key while powering up.

3. Then connect usb

4. download the fastboot command if you haven't already

5. do a fastboot devices to ensure your device is detected

6. fastboot flash radio radio.img

As I understanding, its very hard to brick a nexus phone, and if something screws up, you can just fastboot flash it again. Its not the same with other phones where they have to update the fastboot itself.

nice OP edit. I guess to be fair we should put in the stock KB2 on the 9020a's also. That's the first radio we got, then our 9020 KD1...
[Nexus S Android Development] jark99:
I dont think it really makes a difference. I went from KB straight to KD1, reason being everytime you flash a radio, it just uses what your flashing. So nothing will be there if you take that extra step to flash a extra radio file. Im using the KD1 (flashed yesterday).

edit** im a bit confused, should the rogers nexus s people be testing between the KB3? and the UCKD1? reason being my orginal radio was the UCKB2, i think

[Nexus S Android Development] Ok_Kaleidoscope5109:
No I'm just saying we should have the original UCKB2 here if we're compiling all radios.

I personally have only used the KB3 and KD1 for the 9020Ts. I don't like the upload cap. While Steve suggests the UCKD1 is better for reception, I'm not 100% sure. I haven't tested, but something tells me it's more just a placebo effect. I can test later this week, but my experience from KB2 (which is officially for 9020a) and the 9020T radios all yield equally sucky reception. I believe that this is just how the phone is :(
