Did a bit of "Quality Assurance" tonight, ;) by making sure all the zips have my latest updater-script (which is safer than some of the older ones that were in use), ensuring that all the fastboot and cwm zip files have the correct matching radio in them by checksum (all had the correct radios, but some were untrimmed or trimmed weirdly in one or the other), renamed them all according to their build strings and as though they were from factory images, and uploaded to Dev-Host in order of build string date so that the relative newest will be displayed at the top (it's also really easy to re-sort by Name on Dev-Host if you're browsing it directly and want to find a specific radio).

They can all be found here: http://d-h.st/users/osm0sis/radios/

I'll move them into cwm and fastboot subfolders once I've got the Dev-Host links up in the OPs, which I'm hoping to do along with adding build strings, reordering, etc. tomorrow sometime. :)

P.S. It's worth noting that, according to Google's build.prop values for ro.build.fingerprint, the SC-04D and M420 are both actually still maguro, despite having completely different device names from the i9250. More-or-less confirming what we already knew in practice, or maybe I'm late to the party on this one. :p

Edit: Baseband posts updated. OP will have to wait a few days since that was some tedious sh*t! :eek::p
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ChazzMatt:
Looking forward to the re-organization. :good:

This will eliminate any possible confusion as to which is the actual "newest" build radio (when built by Google) as opposed to the "found-and-now-posted-here" date (Which is actually irrelevant. Theoretically could be a TWO-YEAR old radio from some GNex prototype -- but just now "FOUND" on a shelf somewhere).

Some people don't know how to decipher the build date code, so you listing them by build date will will make it easy to find the newest, freshest radios. Thank you.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] osm0sis:
Reorganization was finished last night. I just have the info in the OP to tidy up now. And thanks! That was my hope as well. :)

Two things I found interesting when going through the collection:

OMLA1 has a newer build date than XXLA2, by like 3 days. It's the only occurrence of the radios being "out of order" by revision. It would make sense that the revisions # is for that region only, but it's still interesting that it never occurred anywhere else.

Edit: Whoops, just noticed another example; DVKK6 was after two KK7s.

OMKKD is the only radio that had a letter for the revision, and comes between XXKK1 and XXKK6, so either the OM builds were so many they had to go to letters, so "KK13" (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,A,B,C,D), or at first OM was using only letters and it would be the equivalent of KK4.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] UlbaWan-:
With a radio I've more on less a constant signal : 3 bars, and sometimes 4 or 2...

With an other one, I've more time with 4 bars than the first one, but as well more time with 2 or 1 bars..

Wich one is the better ? For battery consumption I mean...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Pkt_Lnt:
Get Network Signal Info from the Play Store and see which one gives you the higher dBm and asu readings to answer that.

And test them in known weak areas.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] UlbaWan-:

Thank you, I will try this :)

I'm running latest Avatar (android 4.3) with ASKP B20 kernel.

I unlocked and flashed from factory 4.3 OTA.

My baseband is XXLJ1, provider is T-Mobile, GT-i9250.

My connection is very unstable, it keeps switching between 3G and H+. Even if I'm outside, full reception, it will switch from 3G to H+ and then back very often, it appears for no reason.

I'm using Nephilim's kernel tweaks for ASKP.

Any idea how to tackle this?

Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] creeve4:
UGLL1
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Mach3.2:
Is there any apps pulling data frequently?

If there is no data activity, your phone will drop back to UMTS. It won't go to H+ unless you/apps are using data.

Beamed from my Maguro
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] shpitz461:
UGLL1 is newer than XXLJ1 (which is what I currently have)?

Ah, that makes sense.

Also, I went to the Phone Information section and it shows 'WCDMA only' in the preferred network. Is that correct for T-Mobile in the US? How can I change it to GSM PRL (AUTO) and 'save' it? It always reverts back to WCDMA.

Is H+ GSM or CDMA? I'm confused...

Thanks guys!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] creeve4:
And UG is north America specific, it works much better for me than the international radios (XX).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] shpitz461:
Thanks!

What is your preferred network set to? How do I change it?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] creeve4:
I just have it at default. I can't remember the exact nomenclature, but it is basically 2g + 3g with 3g preferred.

Some ROMs allow you to change it others don't. I can't even find the setting in AOKP right now.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] shpitz461:
It's listed under Phone Info when you do *#*#4636#*#*, can you check?

---------- Post added at 11:22 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:54 AM ----------

i've been reading the following thread and now it's all clear :)

http://support.t-mobile.com/thread/36734?start=0&tstart=0

I was confusing CDMA and WCDMA. In a nutshell, GSM refers to 2G while WCDMA refers to 3G when it comes to the network type.

Mine is set to WCDMA Preferred which should be the preferred setting.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Ranker:
hi I live in Asia Pakistan using Galaxy nexus baseband version xxlf1 but this consume alot of battery. I charge my phone to full and in morning i left only 10-15% without any usage. On battery graph Phone idle always on top with over 63% consumption. Any suggestion which baseband will be good for me to use in Asia (Pakistan)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] osm0sis:
I'd start by trying the ones in the alphabetical/region OP from Asia, then maybe South America or North America since they might be better for mountainous terrain with spotty coverage.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Ranker:
Can you suggest me which radio should i flash to get better battery life ?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] osm0sis:
Follow the recommendations I already gave you. Something that connects better will likely get you better usage. Roaming murders battery.

I need your help , I flashed the latest Dirty Unicorn rom and I lost the network, I flashed factory image of 4.3 twice but still the problem is there,

also I tried flashing cwm flashable baseband provided by you but still the problem is there, what can I do now??

I am able to search for the available networks, the list of network is also being shown but I am not able to register on network, tried on a different SIM card also,

Please Help Me
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] osm0sis:
Did you wipe factory partition by mistake? Check to see if your IMEI is correct or if it's become generic. If it's generic go to the end of my CWM thread. Someone recently had that problem and posted a solution.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Utkarsh-ezzo:
You guessed it correct man,

ya i did accidently format /factory,

thank you will see that now
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] efrant:
How is this even likely to happen? Does CWM have an option for that? Doesn't seem like it is a smart option to have in CWM, no?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Utkarsh-ezzo:
ya actually it should be removed from cwm or marked with RED color,

it is really dangours as it is just below the format /system, and I use cwm touch and accidentally touched it and then touched yes too, and didnt even know what have I done...

Still I havent fixed the problem yet...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] osm0sis:
Yup. Right below /system, like he said. It is a bit of a problem, I think it's a side-effect of the new vold managed mounts, since they just allow access to all mounts indiscriminately at the moment. I'll drop a comment on the github commit.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Utkarsh-ezzo:
that would be really good to avoid any future damage.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] j_train:
I'm on Rogers in Vancouver, AOKP M4 and Franco, but UGLA4 hasn't been as good for me as everyone else. I also work in a big concrete office building where the reception isn't as great and I actually get the fastest speed and consistent signal with UGKL1. Better battery life with UGLA4 though.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] efrant:
Not sure how this all started, but the misinformation seems to keep getting propagated.

Where did you find out that if is on GSM/CDMA auto it will search for a CDMA signal? A GSM Nexus does not have a CDMA radio in it. That specific option will not do anything for our devices. But don't take my word for it. Try it and let us know if you see a difference.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cmstlist:
The menu is not intended to be seen by the average end user. So by default, all possible options for all possible Android devices are on there. The GSM/CDMA auto mode is for devices like the Droid Incredible 2 or the Xyboard which have both types of radio.

And updated.

Thanks to everyone contributing information, including jeff72k :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] efrant:
Obviously the suggestion I made was not meant to be radio-specific. If anyone is having connectivity issues after flashing any radio, I would suggest following those steps: flash through fastboot, wipe the cache, reboot, and reboot again. (That is essentially my default flashing procedure, and I haven't had issues before, on any radio I tried).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] josteink:
Picky picky picky. OPs updated once again ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] efrant:
LOL! You didn't have to change it. I was just pointing it out in case someone was wondering why it was only for that radio. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Langduscher:
Great thread. I'm having great results with the Japanese DOMLA1 radio - much better than with the newest KL1 European radio.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] M3drvr:
Thats what i figured that it has no CDMA radio in the GSM version. On the first post there is a link titled right under the Hidden radio service menu thats called "JLishere has some hidden tricks up his sleave" and it says to switch to GSM auto(PRL). I figured would be useless considering that this phone doesn't have a CDMA radio. I've tried switching but there is no difference. But then again it just doesn't stick to the option i choose anyhow. HOwever i just read the link right below that and it states as you've just said...my bad!

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Timmyfoxeh:
I'm not a complete noob, but I thought I'd ask to make sure:

I've got a GSM Nexus and is located in Sweden, Europe. Can non-european radios and/or CDMA-based radios (like UGLA4) cause issues or could they work for me?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cmstlist:
UGLA4 is not a CDMA-based radio. It's for the GSM/HSPA Galaxy Nexus.

All GSM/HSPA GN radios you could possibly flash should be fine in some respect. Some radios may be better or worse in terms of reception and battery life on certain bands. None should cause irreparable harm.

Do not flash any radios from a CDMA GN. You could brick your device that way.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Timmyfoxeh:
Thanks for the reply.

Yeah, UGLA4 is listed here in the GSM thread, so obviously it's a GSM radio, it was just the first one that came to mind when I thought of a non-European based Radio.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gtizon:

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sacksyboy:
You have to try them...kl1 has been getting good reviews in many areas but the bottom line is you need to try it to give a fair evaluation.

You can always go back to what you had if you don't like it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Ashtrix:
Just happened to me today when my 4.3 rom was not booting at all i had removed the TWRP and used CWM touch 6 then i had all my partitions formatted plus i didn't knew that this would wipe my EFS partition. But as i thought u can actually restore it from any old EFS partition of your prev Nandroid backups & this method applies only for Samsung made phones !!

And now it's fine :cowboy: !
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Utkarsh-ezzo:
yes i knew that we can restore it from nandroid , but in my case was different as didnt had nandroid backup also
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] efrant:
I don't have a GNex any longer (so I could be mistaken), but I do not believe that a nandroid backup on a GNex will actually back up the EFS partition.

By restoring your nandroid, what you have done is restored the proper files in /data/radio, which is what Android looks at for IMEI. However, there will still be nothing in /factory, so if you ever wipe or do a factory reset, your IMEI will disappear again. In order to get it to stick, I believe you still need to copy the nv_data.bin.md5 and nv_data.bin files from /data/radio to /factory. This is a good reference thread.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Utkarsh-ezzo:
correct it is....may be he have not flashed any rom after nandroid restore or may be he have pushed those 2 files to \factory.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Ashtrix:
This was the ref thread that helped me over the EFS thing !

Plus the TWRP has an option to backup the EFS partition so i had it restored and everything's working. Just to make sure i just factory wiped and the radio is OL. Currently running stock rooted 4.3 JWR66Y.

Anyways thanks for your advice.

Hello Friends,

I took a quick look through the thread but I still want to ask to make sure I don't end up bricking my phone. Thanks in advance for your patience.

I have a maguro (which I ordered from eBay) and live in Israel. I'm using LJ1 radio and PRIMED04 bootloader. When switching to or from EDGE (especially after walking out or range of a WIFI AP) I lose data, although I still have bars and show connection to google services (blue bars on jellybean), I can't actually use the data stream.

Should I try flashing the NA radio? will that even work for me here in Israel?

Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] osm0sis:
Any radio can technically work anywhere. Don't worry, there is zero brick potential. Download a bunch of them and see what works best.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Ashtrix:
My gnexus does have a boot up-lag when i use the PrimeMD04 Bootloader :rolleyes:...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] osm0sis:
This is a radio thread, but yes. Reverting to LC03 fixes that and KK15 has no yellow tint (but can report out of memory when trying to flash some large system images).

See efrant's bootloader thread, linked in my sig.

I upgrade my nexus from 4.2.1 with UGLL1 modem (I think) to 4.3 and modem became XX with something.

I use ganaxy nexus toolkit and images from google website.

No phone unable to see GSM 2G Networks(Rogers in Canada), AWS Network(Wind)

It only see 3G only network, Telus and 302610(that is Bell)

I try lots of modems, flash it through recovery and through fastboot, did fastboot cache reset, twice before and twice after every steps etc nothing helps.

If i set it to 2G only i did not see networks. *#*#4636#*#* can be set to WCDMA prefered, any other value changed back.

How to fix it?

thanks.

PS: try to install 4.2.2 4.1.2..... all of them comes with euro modem xx.... it not working.

and after modem update it not working again
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] osm0sis:
That has nothing to do with your radio... my best guess is you've somehow broken your APNs.

I'm using XXLH1 because with this baseband my phone switches from Orange CH to Orange FL without considering the latter a foreign carrier. Users of Orange CH can use Orange FL like it where the same carrier at no additional cost. I'd like to use the newer XXLJ1, but on that baseband my phone does not switch to Orange FL automatically. I have to activate data romaing which I do not want to do because I might end up with an Austrian carrier. Is there any way to modify XXLJ1 so both Orange CH and Orange FL are considered home carriers?

Hi

I have an i9250 running liquidsmooth KK

Was wondering if updating my baseband would help in my situation.

Everything was working great and then suddenly my sim card was not recognized

When I search for a network the networks do show up though.

I also tried switching back to stock to no avail. Help please

Did you wipe the factory partition by mistake? Check to see if your IMEI is now generic.

Yeah it would be from the moment you wiped it onward, so I'm not sure what the deal is in your situation.

Very weird.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] m.is.for.michael:
I lose signal once in a while, but a reboot usually fixes it. What seems to happen is the phone runs out of ram, kills a process it shouldn't, and hot reboots. When it comes to initialize the radio, it finds it already exclusively opened, errors, but continues. I then pull my phone out of my pocket and find I'm disconnected.
