Where can I find the XXKK1 baseband?

Edit...

Never mind I've found it :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] thanksgiving60:
hey Mr. Chung

can you dump the KRKK7 radio?

thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Neon01:
I've never compared radios/basebands before, does anyone have a decent process for objectively comparing them? Is it just stuff like speedtest.net? It seems like it'd be hard to make a controlled comparison using stuff like that.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] waylo:
That is one of the drawbacks of these attempts to say one radio is better than the other.

Some have done speedtests from the same "exact" location both before and after upgrading. Though in order to make that really accurate, you'd ideally have 2 phones identical except for the radios, from almost the "exact" location, at the exact time, on exact data plans.

Battery life is another area where comparisons are attempted, another historically difficult thing to quantify. Though there are probably some egregious examples of inc/dec battery life.

With the stock KK1, I seem to be having some weird connectivity dropouts with T-Mobile. And/or after stepping out of an elevator/garage where I have lost signal, it is slow to reconnect. Is it the radio? My SIM? My phone? I will probably upgrade the radio to see if that improves.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] schrickm5:
Can I flash a tar file of XXKK6 from Odin? Is that safer than flashing through CWM?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jetrii:
Odin is not the safest way of doing things. If something happens with Odin then you're in trouble. If something happens with fastboot then you can always go to a lower level tool such as Odin and try to fix it. I personally don't flash radios through CWM as it's reportedly less reliable than fastboot (still very reliable though)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Neon01:
Agreed on all counts. I think about the best you could do would be a time-averaged set of data points (either speedtest.net readings, or other RF dB readings from another app that could actually measure RF link signal strength), collected in the same spot, on the same phone, on the same time and day of the week (though weekday/weekend might be close enough for gov't work).

I've just always been loathe to go jumping around because I feel there's at least a healthy dose of placebo going into the anecdotal reports. That said, I could certainly believe that one could be definitively better than another when used in a given area.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] killbox:
Mine is stuck at "sending"....

Went to fastboot, wrote : cd \Program Files (x86)\Android\android-sdk\tools and then: fastboot flash radio radio.img.

Will things mess up if I choose a XX radio instead of XW as I should (nordics)?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] waylo:
If you type "fastboot devices " does it list your connected phone?

If not, doubt you have the proper fastboot drivers installed then.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Soy_Filipo:
can someone tell me the basebands of this radio?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] flakz0r:
The baseband is the radio.. what are you asking? XXKK6?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Soy_Filipo:
no, i mean, the 3g basebands in which this radio works, 900/1700/1800/1900/2100
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] josteink:
I checked it out, and while I think I will manage to get by without it (I'm a command-line freak :p ) it did peak my interest slightly with regard to bcm4329.ko.

What is that, why is it there and is there anything in particular about android modding I have been missing out on? ;)

---------- Post added at 10:23 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:21 PM ----------

I flashed the "google" version of the images found to get a "true" yakju phone and in the process I ended up with a XXKK6 baseband.

I have nothing conclusive to say, but my impression is that reception has gotten slightly worse.

If you still have your XW modem and could dump your it using dd into an .img file I can flash, I'll be a happy guiniepig to test things out and do some basic comparisons ;)

Seriously though. It would be awesome. I can't seem to find a flashable XW baseband lying around anywhere and I forgot to do a backup of my shipping baseband (think it was xwkk9 or something)

Edit: Command for dumping radio (if you are rooted):

dd if=/dev/block/platform/omap/omap_hsmmc.0/by-name/radio of=/sdcard/radio.img

Edit2: seemingly i9250xwkk9 fw contains XXKK1 baseband.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] madscientistdam:
hi

can i flash the zip useing clck work mod, and if yes do i flash it like flashing a rom? help please
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] superbobup:
The .zip in the OP is flashed from fastboot. I haven't seen the rest of the thread, but someone would need to make a CW flashable zip file...however, I've read that fastboot flashing is a bit safer anyways :D
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] the_cosworth:
Error cannot load 'radio.img'

help?

edit: NM couldnt figure out why but I just moved it to the C: drive and used.

fastboot flash radio c:/radio and it worked fine.

Who knows
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MrBig0:
I hope this isn't a really stupid question, but does this support 850/1900 bands? I remember some radios on my i9000m wouldn't give me the 850 band.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kavyt:
yes it does.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] marc.tulley:
Hey all,

I CWM flashed this because I was having dropout issues since flashing Bigxie 4.0.3 and franco's Nightly series Kernal's

So far so good. It DOES seem to cling onto H a lot more which I will gladly take even if it does use a bit more juice (Extended battery in the post). My commute on the train is forever switching between 3G and H and can be very annoying!

Ive just blasted through the GTA3 400MB download uninterupted.

Speeds are the same as before for me. (Upload went up a bit but prob just random)

London. O2. GSM. XXKK1-->XXKK6

NOTE the CWM recovery flashable file is in page 3 of this thread.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] the_cosworth:
Maybe I am an idiot but are you saying you like KK1 better than KK6? It sounded like the other way around in your post but then I saw KK1 is greater than KK6.....
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mojolive:
Can I use this if i am on XXKK6? Running Android HD 2.1.2 ANDROID 4.0.2
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] asyyy:
I think he meant that he went from KK1 to KK6
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Benlehot:
Understood the same thing
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sitnlow4life:
According to this thread we should be using the UG base bands in the US?

I'm confused seems like the XX base bands are working well here in the states.

I'm on T-Mobile USA in Philadelphia.

Edited for Clarity :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jankyboy:
FWIW, I'm in CO (on AT&T) and used the XXKK6 radio that came with the 4.0.2 image from Google's website for a couple days - data/battery was acceptable. I flashed that image about 10 minutes after receiving the phone, so I don't have any real experience with the KK1 radio that came with it.

A few days ago I flashed the UGKK7 radio after reading that UG radios were for use here in North America. Honestly, I can't tell much difference. Data/battery/wifi all seem very close to what I experienced with the XXKK6 radio.

I thought about flashing the UGKL1 radio (I presume it's "newer" than UGKK7), but KK7 seems pretty good for now.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] enricoandreoli:
WiFi "power" isn't increased :(
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] EddieN:
doesn't anyone have an md5? Seems a bit risky just posting a bunch of radios for people to flash when there isn't even an md5 to check with...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hm2075:
On the three network UK

Using 4.0.3 with Franco 7.1 kernel. Was getting frequent drop out on stock 4.0.1 and latest versions. Especially whilst on the move.

Just flashed the kk6 radio and internet speeds have definitely increased from just half a meg download to 1.5.. also increase in upload speeds too.

Will report back after a few days on whether the dropped call issues are still there

Will also be interesting when I return to work as there u consistently get 3 meg download speeds.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] xyzulu:
Previous Telstra/VodafoneAU "optimized" Android modems (I've used them on the GS2) would try to use the 850mhz band as a priority, and then drop back to other available bands after that.

I'm not finding this is the case with this modem on the Galaxy Nexus at the moment. I could be wrong, but this one doesn't "feel" as optimized as other phones Telstra/VodafoneAU modems have.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Simmo3D:
Are you saying that DVKK6 is a much more optimized radio for Telstra customers?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] xyzulu:
I'm saying the opposite. Perhaps future Telstra/VodafoneAU modems will be more optimized.

This is just my opinion gained from testing our modems for the GS2 and SGN.

What's your opinion, findings?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Simmo3D:
I have been back-and-forth testing the two modems and found no difference. In fact, when I set XXKK6 to AUS2, it actually seems like my connection is better and download speeds are more consistant than DVKK6.

Also, knowing Telstra (specifically with GS2) it seems much smarter to stick with stock google as they will constantly update their radio images. Telstra are very slow at pushing Android updates from my experience.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] xyzulu:
As I have found..

When 4.0.3/4.0.4 is ok I'll have no hesitation going onto the Google supported build instead of my Samsung sponsored version ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] senab:
For me KK6 never releases its HSDPA connection so it uses a lot of battery. I'm going back to KK1 because of this.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] balla786:
I'd like to be able to put movie files (1080p) which tend to be > 4gb on my phone's internal storage or on the microSD card. I have the Telus S2 X.

What's very odd is that my brother has the Bell/Virgin Mobile S2 variant, and I was able to place a 6+ gb file on his internal storage and play it back fine (unrooted/stock using mobo player).

I can't seem to do that on mine, let alone on my microSD card.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] AllGamer:
definitely no NTFS support

however you could try Linux ext2 or ext4, and it should be able to read it with a custom kernel like CM7 that can read those file systems
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] balla786:
So I could format part of my microSD card via Gparted to ext4?

Would I be able to read that partition if I used the stock tweaked Telus rom that Mr. X put out and his Synergy CM7 kernel?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] fordstang99:
I believe cm7 kernel is only for cm7....wouldnt work
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] knotphunnie:
I was thinking something similar the other day. Tried using my OTG connector to plug in my external hard drive. It's 1tb. What would be the best way to get my phone to read it? It would be fantastic to have a 1tb music player.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] le3ky:
I got my hands on both of these cases and did a quick review if anyones interested. I have to say im impressed with the official flip case, its the one i use on a daily basis atm.

http://droid-den.com/accessory-reviews/samsung-galaxy-note-flexishield-case-review/
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] Mrglass86:
that is great, i was on the fence with the flip cover for a bit, thank you for going the extra bit and getting both!

I had the craziest of ideas but do you think with a little bit of patience and modding that you would be able to put a slice in the gel case and slip the back cover of the flip case through it and use both?

I am not sure when ill next be able to buy another phone seeing as this one started WWIII at my house and i think i may need to really baby it, i also think if its possible we might be able to use the gel case somehow to hold the flap down, tiny magnets, who knows, im just curious if you think this is possible
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] iBrummie:
Flip Case is great, works like a dream and it's raised case protects the Camera Lens, unlike the factory fitted back, one slight issue is that the Note will not slip into the 'Official' car mount when it is in the Flip case. You can snip a bit from the case to help but due to the extra width (... ;-) ) it stands proud on the one edge.

Samsung naughty designers...
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] le3ky:
Ha, I actually tried this but must have forgot to mention it in the review. No modding required it does fit in. The case warps very very slightly on the left side where the flip case joint is, but it works reasonably well though!

Not sure about holding the flap down, but it only slightly lifts itself up, it sometimes lifts very high, but just pressing it down is enough to keep it down :P
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] tamerh:
I am thinking about using both cases togather , would you send a picture please for using them togather ?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] stephen dagostino:
Been using my flip case for a couple of days. I wasn't sure at first but love it now.

Feels like part of the phone.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] Mrglass86:
+1 to this and also do you like your gel case enough that if you were to buy another it would be that one again or take your chances on one of the other gel cases out there? thanks for trying the two cases together too, im too broke to risk it not working.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] tamarian:
+1

I'm thinking of just cutting the front flap and glue the side leather on top of the gel cover's side, close to the back cover's side, so it will have full range of motion. Reuse the original backcover for better fit. Then just a tiny velcro patch on the other side to keep it closed.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] le3ky:
Ahh ok, I'll do this tonight :P

I don't think so, to be honest I'm not really a fan of gel cases anyway so I wouldn't buy any. Flexishield ones are the most popular gel ones tho :P

Good idea, its better to keep the full range, because I would hate the flip cover if it didn't flip all the way around.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] Carmageddon1984:
Please post pictures how you do that and what glue you use for it to hold for long time, and look aesthetic.

I would like to do the same probably :)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] jeremy.chan:
been using the flip case for about nearly a month now in tropical weather, and the edges of the flip top have "melted" and become sticky. ugh!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] dan008:
have been using it for the past 3 days since i got my phone, the edges of the thin silicon lining peeled off. Soon the leather cover is gonna go in a matters of weeks.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] tamarian:
Took mine a couple of weeks, and now it's starting. Here's a pic:
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] le3ky:
ouch, haven't had that with mine yet. Either you guys are rougher than me, or i'm just lucky :P
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] ericshmerick:
Found the original, sealed Samsung flip case on eBay from a US seller for $45 shipped.

Will be here in a few days. I'm stoked!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] xAnimal5:
Expansys has it for $32.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] ericshmerick:

In stock in 8 days. Plus the shipping time.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] masiegel:
The original Samsung flip case is not very good quality. Mine just started falling a part after one month

http://reviews.cnet.com/8301-19736_...cpu-increases-performance-while-saving-power/

This article says it has embedded support to stream to TV and use a ps3 controller etc..

HOw exactly does is stream to a TV, do they mean HDMI out cable, or does it have some 'dlna' type streaming, and requires a receiver hooked to TV?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Diamondback:
Both HDMI and DLNA :)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] SS2006:
i thought dlna was for vidoes/songs etc

you can play a game on a tv via dlna :S
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Diamondback:
Well you didn't talk about gaming... Only about streaming to the TV.

Gaming won't work with DLNA of course. If you want to game, you need to chose the HDMI way ;)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] infinitemethod:
Is the HDMI needed a mini or micro? I've read conflicting spec sheets as to which it actually is.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Diamondback:
Asus site says Micro, but I'll wait until I have it in my hands, so see myself which connector it is :)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] infinitemethod:
Haha, true. I just wanted to have everything ready to go when it get's here! I am so pumped.

Yesterday I was reading a thread about issues on signal loss and there was a *#*# number that brought up info about networks. I didn't change anything but was curious as to what was in there. Now today I can't send any text messages to anyone. Is this related? I can't remember the number and I wouldn't know what to look for anyways. Any thoughts on how to resolve this would be appreciated.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] MarcusVanSciver:
Hi,

I have the same problem after looking at these settings.

See my thread here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1412261

Did you resolve your issue?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] @rbiter:
You need to find your messaging center number for your network. Then go back to dialer. Type *#*#4636#*#*. Then type that messaging number in the smsc box. DO NOT hit update or refresh. It won't do anything on this phone. Typing the number is enough.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] IanDroidz:
Sneaky way of Fixing this

I too had the same problem, Apparently when you go to the hidden info in the Galaxy Nexus it wipes the SMSC. I tried doing everything to fix it, i even factory resetted my phone, and when this didn't work I did the most desperate thing. I popped in my SIM card in an old Blackberry 8520 and when I went to the SMS settings.. the SMSC value wasn't there, so I just simply typed it in and hit save. Popped the SIM card back in my Galaxy Nexus.. and done.. It's all good again.

ICS is glitchy regarding the SMSC settings.. literally.. deleting it and not being able to update it.. anyway.. :D I got it fixed.

BTW, I'm with Telcel GSM in Mexico. the SMSC number is +5294100001410
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] waylo:
Not exactly. It wipes it if you hit UPDATE in the hidden menu at the SMSC area, with nothing typed in. So don't do that. Just looking at the setting page won't wipe a thing.

If you do, you'll have to research your SMSC #, etc etc etc.

EDIT:

BTW, attached is a list of SMSC #s I found. Dunno if they're exactly up to date. But the T-Mobile # is current.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pukemon:
the sim solution doesn't work all the time. didn't for me. hitting update when i typed in my number didn't solve it either. just typing it in and leaving the menu worked. was about to throw the phone at the wall. anyways, ymmv with the solution. i am throwing this out there so anybody who searches will exhaust all options before throwing it at the wall. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Valynor:
Try running the App "SIM card toolkit". It should be on your device by default and it will import SMSC data and the like automatically.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WintersComing:
Hi

Recently got a galaxy tab 10.1, and has 3.1 installed - no upgrade available yet apparently.

Anyway, I'm not sure if I've missed something glaringly obvious, but I'm reasonably literate with stuff like this. I'm trying to get my email setup, and have tried a number of apps. Until ICS comes out, Ive decided to use the stock email app, the samsung one..

Anyway, I can add multiple accounts, so I've got gmail, hotmail etc. The only problem is gmail (IMAP?) has a change displayed name feature, whereas hotmail (on activesync?) doesn't... So if my email is winterscoming@hotmail.com, my equivalent gmail has a display name setting to change that to whatever I want, in this instance Mr Bob Smith. However, the hotmail doesn't, and when I send an email, it's from winterscoming, essentially just the first part of the email address.

I can't believe that this is a bug / intentional, but the setting isn't there under the hotmail account. I was hoping l could shed some light on this. No luck searching - Otherwise it's a great little device.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WintersComing:
So no-one's come across thiss then? Basically to stop the stock mail app using the first part of the email address as opposed to my name?

Could anyone confirm whether they have the option to change the display name when usinf exchange activesync, especially with hotmail?

Cheers guys - much appreciated
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Beezer80:
If I follow you... Try adding yourself "Mr. Bob Smith" as a contact with the winterscoming email addres associated with it.

That should make it display as the Name rather than the email address.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bartlaroc:
I have a hotmail account in the stock email, open the stock email, goto winterscoming@hotmail.com inbox, tap menu, account manager

tap winterscoming@hotmail.com, edit the account settings with account name "Mr Bob Smith", your name "Bob", signature "Bob Smith Hotmail on Android Tab"

your sent emails should show

(from) Bob (winterscoming@hotmail.com)

To: user@xxxxxmail.com

content - your message

sent from Bob Smith Hotmail on Android Tab

or whatever your preferences
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WintersComing:
hi

Thanks for the reply. Unfortunately I can change the signature, but I cant change the your name section as its an exchange account. I can change the account name but this only changes the displayed name in the email app.

Tried adding myself as a contact too - no luck.

For now all my emails are from 'winterscoming'

Could this be the crappy 3.1 and touchwiz? Dont have this problem on gmail or another activesync account ive added after

Cheers
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] y1ppy:
I've got the exact same problem too. I can't enter a name for my activesync accounts so it displays the first bit of my email address as the sender name. So damn frustrating, I've been using Enhanced Email instead but the lack of split screen view is really annoying on a tablet.

Has anyone got a solution?
