Tried out KI1 on full battery. 14 mins later I was at 90% n ALL I did was checked twitter n sent maybe 5-7 texts. Went back to KF1. (No background sync of any app except Gmail ALL other notifications are off n I don't use gtalk).

Flash one of the capped radio versions FIRST.....

Download root explorer if u don't already have it

Go into EFS file and move the following files into Root of SD Card

Nv.log

Nv_data.bin

Reboot phone and u should be ok. Then flash the right radio on your i9020A ... using kb3 and love it with HSDPA tweak

[Nexus S Android Development] Spectre Nine:
Sup guys,

Could do with a quick few pointers if any of you guys wouldn't mind.

I'm trying to get the old stock radio that I had from new as it was the only one that seemed to work for me and after having stock ICS on for the last couple of days, My phone now has baseband I9020XXKI1 even after restoring Nandroid/CWM backup which I thought was going to restore the radio too but it didn't.

My phone used to have I9020XXKB2 back on 2.3.3 I think, Is this the one listed as KB2 in the original post?

Its confusing me because in the original post it says its for I9020a only, but my phone just has "I9020" on it, no T or A, or any other letter to distinguish it.

Thanks in advance. :)

[Nexus S Android Development] purpl3rain:
Agreed with everyone that said what's best for you. I had the KB3 and that worked great. Then I flashed the new KF1 and it's been working great thus far.

Not sure what it is, but my current connection is levels better than what I was getting with my iPhone. The connection on the iPhone was just terrible. I'm getting great speeds so far.

Most important is the fact that they NEED to be set to the value that your network is currently supporting if you want to enjoy optimal speeds!!
[Nexus S Android Development] stremax:
agreed, this settings work only if your network provider can/want to broadcast at that speed... what i've done in my case is just a wiki search, see what my provider is doing about connection speed, after check in settings>phone info> tap and look at signal strenght(idk if it's a right translation, i'm from Italy) and network tipe (same as above:-) there you can found real network speed (asu value and type) so you can match the settings with the proper one (search wiki about hsdpa-hsupa)

Radio on China Mobile

Hi guys,

I am based in China and just bought a Nexus S Korean version M200, its baseband is XXKI1.

Reception is OK but I noticed an abnormal battery drain in idle around -25mA (no wifi, no bluetooth, 2G only, screen off). I played with different ROMs and kernels but the idle consumption remains the same (a bit too high), and as China Mobile network has its particularities I was thinking it might come from the radio.

- Do you have any advice for me ?

- Do you think flashing a different radio could solve this problem ?

- What radio version do you suggest me to try ?

- Can I flash any radio version on M200 ?

Thanks in advance !

[Nexus S Android Development] Ok_Kaleidoscope5109:
shouldn't the KF1 radio under 9020T/9020A/9023 also say do not flash for 9020a?

it doesn't work at all for 9020a... the only one that works is the capped version (UCKF1)
[Nexus S Android Development] kibmcz:
Yep in my testing only xxkb3 really works on i9020a.
[Nexus S Android Development] prosciutboy:
I will answer to my own questions:

- Battery drain issue:

It is mainly due to Android OS which keep the Nexus S awake, this bug seems to be known but difficult to solve because it is not systematic.

Note that I use Battery Monitor Widget to get the battery consumption in mA, in the settings "mA retrieval method" must be set on "estimated".

- No problem to flash Baseband KC1 on M200. Moreover as you can read here, it is the preferred Radio.

Question. I have NS i9020a and I am currently running NexusBeam 4.1.0 with GLados BFS 2.6 kernel, and XXKB3 Radio. I seem to have no issues with the phone, however when I check the phone signal status it shows HSDPA:9, but then immediately switches to UMTS;3 every time. Does this mean the phone is not holding onto the HSDPA signal and im not getting HSDPA at all?

According to wiki: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nexus_S

GT-I9020 or GT-I9020T: 900 / 1700 / 2100 MHz UMTS, Super AMOLED

GT-I9020A: 850 / 1900 / 2100 MHz UMTS, Super AMOLED

GT-I9023: 900 / 1700 / 2100 MHz UMTS, Super Clear LCD

So I'd say yours is "T" version.

BTW, got the same under battery, only i9020
[Nexus S Android Development] auggie2k:
I've tried pretty much all variants over time, KB3 is the only one that gives me a solid HSDPA connection, with KB1, KD1, KF1 and KI1 I've only ever got a 3G connection which also causes my calls to drop or not ring at all (get a text message from the ISP informing me of my "missed" call).

For me KI1 works very well. No signal and phone call drops. With HSPDA tweak, my 3G speeds have increased as well. I am on WIND Mobile Canada.
[Nexus S Android Development] 3rdcoast:
yes, nothing else is as good still. Nobody has ever explained the capped speeds so I'll just assume it is evil and will stick with the radio that gives me what I paid for. Speaking of paid for, still no hint about ICS on the phone that is supposed to get it first.
[Nexus S Android Development] benoit2600:
Why this thread isn't stick ? It is so useful !
[Nexus S Android Development] Ok_Kaleidoscope5109:
yeah but Wind uses the 9020T doesn't it? Bell uses 9020a

KI1 doesn't work for the 9020a. The 9020a probably is best on KB3 or KD1 (the radios designed for 9020T so they don't have UL caps)
[Nexus S Android Development] CrackerTeg:
I must be doing something wrong as none of the uncapped radios work on my i9020a even after I do the regain 3g trick. As for the capped radios, the best one for me is UCKD1. ATT in Miami is the service I have.

[Nexus S Android Development] CrackerTeg:
Your post on page 94 is what prompted me to try it but I can't get **** for service on anything but the capped radios. I don't know what I'm doing wrong. I hope it had nothing to do with the Rom and kernel I'm running. Probably not.
[Nexus S Android Development] lospulpo:
Same. On i9020a. Read the same post and followed it to the t, along with OP's instructions to get on KF1 first (that's the capped modem right?). Still getting poor service. Baseband definitely reads XXKB3 now. Did the build.prop hspa tweaks from OP too.

Getting speeds like .61Mbps Down & .09Mbps Up.

Captivate sitting right next to me is getting ~4Mb Down ~1Mb Up everytime.

Dallas. AT&T. KF1 wasn't any better.
[Nexus S Android Development] CrackerTeg:
Those are basically the speeds I was getting after doing the 3g fix and HSPA tweaks (which are coded in the ROM I'm using).

I have been using KB3 since i got my nexus s (im in Aus btw) and it seems to be the best, i havent tried KD1 thought (I will give it a run this weekend) when you say better do you mean reception/speed?

as i said i have been running KB3 and only the other day i was pulling down over 800KB/s which is about 6.4mbit. I was very impressed (this was not a peak, i peaked at over 1MB/s) I was tethering to my laptop and downloading a new rom ;) and was getting a solid 800KB/s with the occasional peak of 1MB/s.

Does everyone still agree that KD1 is the best for Aus?

is this radio only i9020a?

What other radios have a capped upload?

Sent from my Incredible Nexus S.
[Nexus S Android Development] Ok_Kaleidoscope5109:
The 9020a radios like UCKB2 and UCKD1 are capped. The typical KB1/KB3/KD1 that people mention are for the 9020T or 9023 in which case there is no cap.
[Nexus S Android Development] ykphuah:
When you guys mentioned better reception, are you looking at the dBm, asu?

Sometimes my 3g data gets disconnected and its getting irritating, but the bars are still high, so I am trying out different radios, wondering if it makes any difference.
[Nexus S Android Development] window7:
Should I make this sticky thread? Hmmm...
[Nexus S Android Development] Ok_Kaleidoscope5109:
KB2 is for 9020a also right?

Just like the UCKD1. But I presume they both can work with 9020Ts, but maybe OP should put a note that those two were designed for 9020a's and both have upload caps.

[Nexus S Android Development] Bloodflame:
I don't know if this will be useful to anyone, but today I conducted a real world data speed test between the XXKD1 and XXKB3 radios. The test was performed on Wind Mobile in downtown Vancouver on a typical rainy Saturday afternoon. Just thought I'd note that in case the weather has an effect. The fact it's a weekend definitely means more network congestion. Typically, speeds are quite a bit better during non-peak hours, but it's these peak hours that are most important, right? I'll try to include as many details as possible.

Location: Vancouver Public Library (central branch)

Date: Saturday, June 25th, 2011

Time: 2:20pm to 2:40pm PST

Weather: Overcast, scattered showers

Signal: Full

As you can see in these tests, the results were pretty close. Overall, the XXKB3 radio ended up being the fastest, if only by a margin. Latency averaged 8% quicker, while download and upload speeds averaged 15% and 12% faster respectively.
[Nexus S Android Development] ykphuah:
I created an app to track the network connectivity out of frustration with constant data disconnection with my carrier. I added the stats for GPRS/EDGE/UMTS/HSDPA as well, thinking that it might useful for you guys to compare the different radio, here it is:

Which one are you all using for the limited edition ns? And can I apply.the speed hack?
[Nexus S Android Development] Dr_Ownage:
The limited edition NS is exactly the same as the regular NS with a different battery cover....

The radios performance depends on many different things such as geographical location.

Just give each of them a try for a day or 2 and see which one is better.

just remember that just because the reception is better does not make it better because the battery is also affected by the radio.

Kd1 seems to suck battery and disconnects frequently

Switched to kb3 2 days ago and much better battery and reception is about the same. Gonna try kb1 next as it radio I had with my vibrant and it was solid with battery and reception (24+ hours)
