Tmobile USA user here...Im using XXKK1. Haven't had any issues with the baseband

Fast GPS locks and constant strong coverage. Located in So Cal

Running android revolution 1.3.3 with stock kernel. :)

Thinking about trying KK6 baseband.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jetrii:
I went from KK1 to KK6 and cell reception improved a tiny bit in my home without an increase in power usage.

EDIT: Just flashed UGKL1. Don't notice any differences but I'll keep an eye on it.

EDIT2: So far, UGKL1 seems to hurt my reception... Still to early to tell.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] 3des:
Looks like i'll be flashing the KK6 baseband later tonight.

What rom are you using by any chance.

Any notable difference between the UGK's and the XXKK's
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jetrii:
I'm on stock 4.0.2. UG radios are optimized for North America while XX radios are optimized for Austria, Belgium, France, Germany, Hungary, and UK. From what I can tell, everything is the same except for the reception. Shame, I was excited to see what UGKL1 would bring. I'll most likely try XXKK7 in the morning.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] DOHCtor:
Here are my experiences with different radio's for T-Mobile US.

The stock xxkk1 put me in UMTS a lot, even in areas I know I should have HSDPA or HSPA. The UG** radio's got me H reception but DL/UL speeds were slow. Then finally, Google released the latest xxkk6. This radio is perfect. I'm always on H now and my DL/UL speeds are fast. And I actually see HSPA:11 instead of HSDPA:9 now in phone status. And battery life is really good too. Left it uncharged over night while sleeping and it only drained 5%.

These are my observations, YMMV.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jetrii:
I am going to give xxkk7 a shot to see how it compares to xxkk6 on T-Mobile.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] KiNG OMaR:
I didn't know there was a xxkk7 radio released already :confused:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jetrii:
Oops. Was momentarily confused. Could have sworn I saw a thread on it somewhere :D Must have misread
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] allen099:
How's battery life for you guys on the UG's? I went from XXKK1 to XXKK6 with the 4.0.2 on yakju and can watch my battery meter decline. XXKK1 was slightly better.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] slegrand:
I tried both UGKK7 and UGKL1 today throughout the day, I am on WIND Mobile with my Galaxy Nexus and found on UGKL1 it would occasionally lose connectivity to AWS putting me in WIND AWAY. I also found my data speeds were much slower on UGKL1 so I have since flashed back to UGKK7 which has been pretty amazing so far. I havent had a chance to see if there was a difference in the battery life as yet but at least for my device it seems that if I am going to continue to use AWS I will stick with the UGKK7 for now.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Tubes6al4v:
T-Mobile USA

I don't have consistent enough coverage to get good numbers, but UGKK7 works well for me. Good, quick connection with no noticeable battery drain.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] haydonxda:
UGKK7 works for me

I live in an area with terrible cell reception on AT&T. I had the KK1 modem which worked but when I flashed to yakju I upgraded to KK6. With KK6 I didn't have a signal at home.

With UGKK7 I now have a signal in my home. I stayed away from KL1 based on mixed reviews so far.

If you're in the US in a fringe signal area give UGKK7 a try. It made the difference between no service and spotty service. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Soy_Filipo:
can someone tell me the basebands of this radio? I mean, the 3g basebands in which this radio works, 900/1700/1800/1900/2100
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] g33k3r:
The phone is pentaband so the radio works on all bands compatible with and GSM provider.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Soy_Filipo:
The phone isn't pentaband, that's why there is a i9020a and a i9020t model, maybe you are talking about the i9023 or the 4g version which could be pentaband... having said that, will this driver work on AT&T bands?

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] superbobup:
how is it not a pentaband phone? also, the device models you listed were all nexus S devices...this phone will work on T-MO edge/hspa and i'm fairly certain it will work on ATT also
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] efrant:
superbobup is correct. This is the 9250, not the 9020. The Galaxy Nexus GSM/HSPA version supports HSPA 850/900/1700/1900/2100
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] raegae2000:
If you are on Wind/Mobilicity do not use UGKL1. It loves to roam as soon as signal is lost, whereas KK7 sticks to home network but automatically roams after a couple of minutes.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] price31:
It says on the sticky thread that UG is for North America and XX is for Europe countries.

I have tried both UG and XX, I am based in Canada on the ROGERS network.

For some reasons I find that the XX gives me better connection and download/upload speed.

currently I am preferring the XXKK6 rather than the UGKL1
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nakadm:
Same here on Fido's network!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] esuohe:
I'm on Roger's; the UGKK7 has been much better for me, in term's of 3G data speeds and most noticeable battery life (as opposed to the XXKK1, which is what mine came with being shipped in from the UK).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] price31:
Have you tried UGKL1 and XXKK6?

UGKL1 is a more up-to-date version than UGKK7

K = december (12th letter)

L = year 2011 (11th letter)

# = revision number
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kavyt:
Your not the only one.

XXKK6 is considerably better for me on Rogers in Calgary. It not only transfers from 3G to HSDPA extremely smart (sits on 3G until i start using data then switches over) but also sucks way less battery then the UG7 & UG1
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] price31:
Good to know i'm not the only one. Sometimes you think you are just going crazy lol
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] unleashed12:
Wow. thank god i read this haha, i have had this phone for 2 days and im going crazy because i have terrible battery life and i suspect it had to do with the signal fluctuations i have (im in calgary too.) im going to flash the same fw you guys have and see if that helps.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kavyt:
Im at 48% with 17hrs on the battery.

Have 3.2 hours screen time. The rom and baseband combo seem to really extend the life.

Im using android rev 2.1.2 and the xxkk6 and normally see 2 work days out of my phone with about 3 hours talk, 4.5 hours screen, 60 emails and about 200 texts.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Andrmgic:
Radios are a funny business.. UGKL1 is the best for me since XXKK1.. XXKK6 kills my battery on AT&T in the US..
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jankyboy:
Flashed UGKK7 on my GN (4.0.2) - signal strength and data speed seem consistent with what I've noticed while on XXKK6. GPS seems a little slower to lock, though. Battery drain seems similar, too.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] thanksgiving60:
XXKK6 > UGKL1 for me
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ferris2375:
Ditto. I was on KK6 and just flashed to KL1, I get way better reception and speeds seem faster. I was struggling for 1-2 bars now I'm on 3 steady. Sweet!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] price31:
I think it is best to post what city, province & provider each of us are from.

Maybe we should start a poll?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] kindiboy:
Used every single baseband available, nothing beats the UGKL1 when it comes to GPS and signal strength. Rest makes the GPS useless.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Benlehot:
Just installed this radio on my GN with Modaco Custom rom.

I tried all other baseband.

So far it's the best !

I'm running on Rogers with a GN from Virgin

WIND MOBILE USERS: do not use the KL1 radio!

There are known roaming issues w it. Bought my phone from Bell a few days ago to use on Wind & it came w the KL1 radio installed stock.

The problem is that it roams onto the Wind Away zone but the phone doesn't think its roaming. In turn the phone does not auto disable data even if data roaming option is disabled. This is gonna cause some people huge amounts of roaming data charges. I had to flash to XXKK6 radio to remedy this. Now roaming is detected fine!

I just wanna warn everybody before someone gets a 5000$ bill.

It happened to me & many other ppl on Wind. Here's some proof:

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AfroCreame:
Hum..wifi speeds went to crap after flashing this..
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] uunnzz:
I am running the UGKK7 radio on T-Mobile USA without any problems. The battery life is great (a great improvement over the stock XXKK1 I think it was). My battery used to go down to ~25% (7am-7pm w/ sync off between 9am-5pm in downtown San Francisco). Now even with sync on it only goes down to ~50% for the same time intervals. Wifi works fine and is fast. One thing I want to note is that the first time I flashed this radio it caused my phone to get stuck in a no signal mode (even after reboot) I flashed it again and haven't had any issues since.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Vertiginouz:
I've got a question for t-mo US users, does this radio get better reception than xxkk6? Also I've got a noob question about flashing new radios, if I flash this radio is there something else I am supposed to flash to get it to work (something about RIL)?

Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] DESMOYO:
Hi, can say that radio is very good for spain

thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] uunnzz:
The area where I live has spotty 3G coverage and it works really well. Stays connected even when I sometimes enter areas where there are no bars. I think it is better than the XXKK6 and the battery life is amazing compared the XXKK1 and XXKK6 radios even with spotty coverage.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hbkmog:
On T-Mobile US right now, so far so good. I've had drop out issue with bigxie's 4.0.3 rom with xkk1 radio. So far I haven't seen a single drop out yet.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Mikey:
How do you view these?? :|
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] e-motion:
In the "About phone" section.

I was on XXKK6 and tried UGKL1 but went back to XXKK6, my T-mo signal was weaker with UGKL1.

I might try it again in a few days.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] irishrally:
I've been getting really good download speeds with UGKK7 on T-Mobile USA, between 4-9 Mbps down depending on where I am. No issues so far.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AndyCr15:

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sitnlow4life:
Can I flash this radio with Odin?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Francois88:
I'm on Koodo (uses Bell/Telus network) and UGKL1 gives me full signal 90%+ of the time in the Ottawa-Gatineau area.

Does the radio affect anything else than signal strength (eg battery, voice clarity, etc.) or is it pretty much useless for me to try it since I already got very good signal?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] efrant:
Why don't you try it and if you are not satisfied, flash back to UGKL1? It won't hurt anything, and only you can tell if it will be better or not depending on your location, travel patterns, usage patterns, weather, etc.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] GerooTech:
Did you Tried t he UGKK7 Radio, on Wind. Also i would like to know if you are facing problems with getting the signal back after being in a location with no network connections at all.

Like when i am in the Train Station (LRT) Tunnel, and i come out to the above ground stations it take around 2 minutes to get a signal back.

i Tried both XXKK6, and the UGKK7 and i feel that UGKK7 is little bit better than the KK6 one.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] raegae2000:
Im on UGKK7 and have it set to "WCDMA only" so I get the signal back fairly quickly when emerging from the tunnel. When on UGKL1 it would never come back and data activated on Wind Away until a reset.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cchant:
I was on KK1 but have switched to UGKK7 after experiencing random drop outs. I'll try to keep everyone updated.

I'm on AT&T in Arkansas
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] GerooTech:
I am on WCDMA only, and i get the signal within a minute to a minute and half. Is this looks reasonable, or it should be less than this??

I remeber with my nexus one, it was not that far.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] raegae2000:
I get signal back in a matter of seconds, 20 to be exact. Maybe I'm just lucky I don't know. Im running ARHD 2.1.2 with PRIMEKL01 bootloader if that makes any difference.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] GerooTech:
I am running the same versions of the rom and the updated boot loader as well.

Does it matter if I bought it from UK CANADA???

When I turn the flight mode on and then off again I get the signal in few seconds

Also I got a GPS connection in seconds.

Do you have any idea if I should send the mobile for repair or not??
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] haydonxda:
I'm experiencing this as well.

I was in an underground garage and it took 15 minutes to get a connection to the AT&T network back in a very good signal area. This is 4.0.2 with UGKK7.

I wasn't very happy...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] efrant:
Why don't you guys try the UGKL1 radio? It is the newest North American radio.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] raegae2000:
Mine is also from the UK. As long as your getting back signal I dont see a problem. Maybe you should get a new sim card??
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bakedjake:
I've been camping in remote areas of the southwestern US for the last 10 days frequently switching between 2G/3G/4G/no service, wifi on every night at campgrounds, and gps4cam grabbing locations every 5 min to geotag my photos.

I'm the OP on a Bell SIM in Canada but when I'm in the US I use a tmo sim.

I ran UGKL1 for the first 5 days, and had a horrible experience when switching between no service, "extended 2G", and tmo 3/4g. This is in the Death Valley US-95 corridor if any of you are familiar. My gnex would take up to 30 minutes to re-acquire a signal while my girlfriend's gnex would reacquire within seconds. Also, I had GPS locks taking in excess of 90 seconds half of the time, and being unable to lock the other half of the time.

I switched back to UGKK7 on Christmas day, and GPS and cell radio have both been great. I cannot recommend KL1.

I have not tried KK6, since KK7 is working so well, but I have it available to test here if anyone is interested. Since we have two gnexes I can do it side by side.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] slyydrr:
So far I'm very happy with UGKL1 for AT&T. Granted it could be placebo effect so I'll have to give it some more time but immediately noticed a more consistent signal in my apartment.

I was using UGKK7 before and had very inconsistent results. Today at my office I was without signal for 17% of the time where as yesterday it was 1% of the time. Same inconsistent results in my apartment - signal drops, etc. With KL1, it's a very consistent 2-4 bars (compared to a 0-4 range with KK7).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jetrii:

KK7 has been better for me on Bell and T-Mobile than KL1 has. Your results may vary.

You really should try both and see what works better for you as reports seem to vary wildly.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ArmanUV:
I flashed KL1 it is fine so far. It seems a little bit more stable than xxkk6.

But I have a problem that didn't get solved.

My collage has a 2.4ghz and 5ghz network with the same ssid and 802.15x encryption. If I set the frequency band to 2.4ghz only (or 5ghz only) it works fine. If I set it to auto, it fails to reconnect when I turn wifi off and back on or reboot. It just shows up in the list and under the SSID it says "Saved" but it does not try to connect. The 2.4ghz is very crowded so I prefer to connect to the 5ghz network. My home wifi on the other hand is 2.4ghz. I did a little research and apparantly the current software only supports a limited number of 5ghz bands. I was hoping that KL1 had added support for more bands.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AlphaKoi:
+1

My nexus has worked better with KK7 vs KL1 or KK6. try them all and see what works best for you
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cmstlist:
Just wanted to point out for reference's sake, after controlled testing:

This UGKK7 baseband has the same roaming bug on WIND Mobile as the UGKL1 that it ships with. Despite the fact that this radio gives me much nicer consistent upload speeds, I cannot recommend it for WIND due to the bug.

Do not use this radio on WIND Mobile.

Back to XXKK6 I go...

ive got kk7 on my wifes phone on WIND and have seen no problems
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cmstlist:
The problem with UGKK7 is, it will silently slip into roaming without notifying you, and allow data use in a roaming zone. You may not "see" a problem until the bill arrives.

Anyway I wrote that before the upgrades. Once your phone gets the 4.0.2 or 4.0.4 upgrade it goes up to a radio without this bug.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Flukester69:
Roaming and data default is off. So how can it roam if it is set to off?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cmstlist:
Because the UGKK7 radio has a bug that fails to recognize when a WIND customer is roaming on Rogers. The OS roaming indicator fails to activate, and thus it uses roaming data without alerting the user or marking it as roaming. All newer radios have fixed this bug so that roaming is marked properly.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Flukester69:

Hi

Delivery of my new Nexus has posed one very important question? My previous HTC sensation had all my contacts on board the sd card. I forgot to transfer the contacts to the sim and now my new Nexus has no sd slot and my pc wont read my phonebook contacts so I am in a spot of bother as I dont know who is calling me at anytime. Can anybody shed some light?

Rds:o
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] joeykrim:
One of the big advantages to have a Google Android phone over a non smart phone was the built in feature of contact sync between the device and the Google "cloud" for each Google account on the device.

I've always used this contact sync feature and it has provided peace of mind knowing my contacts are also backed up in the cloud where I can access them online, download them, edit or save them without having access to my device.

Also, as I move between Android devices, all I do is login with my Google account and the device loads my most recent version of the contacts and then continues to keep them in sync.

I do know Android stores the contacts in a .db file under the /data partition and this could be pulled from a device as a rough backup/restore method. I don't recall having heard of anybody saving their contacts to the 'sd card'. I'm not really sure the benefit to this. The contacts .db file for Android is an sqlite database, as all other .db files on Android are, and there are programs out there to import/export contacts to/from these sqlite .db files.

What type of contacts file are you referring to? .db ? Could you post up the name of the exact file? What application did you use to create the contacts on your sdcard?

The more detailed the information the better the reply.

Hope that helps and I didnt miss the mark!
