I'll give it a shot this weekend if I get a chance, and report back. For some reason on the .48 I can only get 3G. I could live without LTE if I had HSPA.
[Nexus 4 General] kazuki454:
so flashed .33 with cmr and now i don't have any service going in to phone settings shows that cellular is not working i also tried flashing .48 and i still have no service so i flashed 0.27 and everything seems to be working . can somebody help me im rooted stock rom 4.2.2 if i can get back to stock radio that would be good. for now...
[Nexus 4 General] kthejoker20:
Sounds like you have the wrong APN setting under moble networks selected.

Make sure it is correct for your cell service.

OR try this.

Get fastboot.

Download the stock phone rom which will reset EVERYTHING to stock and will erase everything on the phone. The OCCAM file is for our phone.

https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images#occam

Put the phone in bootloader mode.

Just click the flashall file.

Then

Hi,

Here some mirrors for the 3 radios I have on my PC (27 / 33 / 48):

27 -> http://www.multiupload.nl/7J7L6DATU1

33 -> http://www.multiupload.nl/8JQUJM5PZE

48 -> http://www.multiupload.nl/58R1PYDRIJ

Sorry no Dropbox links, it would take too much time to upload.

@efrant, many thanks for this. I was using .27 on 4.2.2 AOSP custom (Rasbeanjelly) for the longest time without noticing (until today when I checked pesky TMo voicemail) that I could not hear any audio on the cellular service (I am on max data plan and use grooveip/GV). I regrettably had to switch back to .48, which I think gives me slower data speeds, but I can't confirm for sure.

I have seen other people post similar problems to this on other threads, but just wanted to know if this were a universal feature for 4.2.2 AOSP or whether there was a way I might be able to resolve. I do voice calls almost always over WiFi if available, but still the mobile piece needs to be functional.

I'm on Roman's AOKP 4.2.2 ROM, build 5. Yesterday I flashed the .27 radio to replace .48 one. Already notice an improvement in maintaining a strong signal.

I'm on Three UK, I too have found that 0.27 is a huge improvement over 0.48. Three doesn't even suppy LTE/4G yet, though data speeds are at their highest for 3G connections, even indoors. Also, the signal seems to be stronger than previous, generally speaking of course.

OK so I'm currently on a 4.2.2 ROM but with the .33 baseband that came with shipped phone never modified it.

If I want to try a different 4.2.2 ROM and try .48 or maybe even .27 what is the process? Do I just flash the baseband in CWM and then the new ROM?

Thanks.
[Nexus 4 General] sspyed:
You'll want to start with a nandroid backup for safety's sake

Then wipe data, cache and dalvik. Flash baseband, ROM & gapps in that order and reboot. Anytime you want to switch basebands or kernels (while staying on the same ROM) you can go into CWM, nandroid, wipe cache & dalvik, flash & reboot. This procedure is solid AFAIK from my experience ;)
[Nexus 4 General] Redneck Trash:
If someone doesn't have in-call audio it's probably because they set LTE Only. They need to set it to LTE/GSM (PRL).

[Nexus 4 General] Redneck Trash:
The kernel shouldn't affect the radio but I really don't know.

Edit: When I first tried to get LTE working it wouldn't at first when I selected LTE/GSM. I had to first select LTE Only, let the phone switch to LTE then select LTE/GSM. Don't know it that helps but it's all I can think of.
[Nexus 4 General] CVuPlay100:
I hope it is really that simple. I will have to give it a try this morning and see if that works for me also.

I am running stock 4.2.2 with no other modifications. I tried the .33 radio and could not get an audio on phone calls. The LTE data speeds were phenomenal though! I had to switch back to the .48 radio because I have to make phone calls.

I am in Houston where T-Mobile does have LTE so I would love to take advantage of it.

Update -- That did not work for me. Had to flip back to .48 radio.

I'm really not sure about this idea that radios affect battery life, haha. In fact I'd go as far as to say I'm highly skeptical of it given I've been on everything but .24 noticing no difference in longevity.

I wouldn't worry too much about radios & modems deciding your battery life. That would be the kernel, which ultimately controls the radios & modem in the first place.
[Nexus 4 General] Blac Caesar:
True.. The kernel ultimately controls the radio/modem. But here's the thing you're forgetting, signal strength is the #1 battery hog in most cases. Poor signal quality n your battery suffers, bc your phone will hunt for a decent signal.. but if the switching of the radio improves your signal strength, then it in turn affects your battery life

Point taken; mileage may vary. Maybe I'm lucky but my speculation comes from my experience being on near all the radios in the OP and quite a bit of intercontinental traveling/network hopping I've had to do lately. It's a given that if you're on Airplane Mode you get a significant increase in battery life etc because your radios aren't hunting for signal--but if you aren't I imagine the difference between builds is more or less imperceptible unless you're in Swahili looking for LTE.
[Nexus 4 General] Cklaven:
I hope someone can give me an idea what I have done here. Today I set out on getting LTE. Unlock and root went fine. I installed the .33 radio over my stock ROM. One I updated the APN, I got LTE but not without some problems. Phone calls dial, but when they connect I cannot hear the person I am calling and they cannot hear me. I figured maybe the stock rom doesnt want to play nice with the old radio. So I went ahead and flashed Rasbean Jelly, leaving the radio at 33. Same solid 4G, same problem with the phone. I then figured maybe my phone doesnt like .33, so I flashed .27, same problem with the phone.

As much as I love the 4G LTE speeds I am getting, I do need to be able to use my phone as a phone. Any ideas?

Hi everyone,

So I'm still on stock 4.2.1. I'm wishing to update to 4.2.2 stock, but then I want to keep LTE, so I would need to downgrade the radio to .33 or .27. Is there any step-by-step tutorial I can follow? I am still new to android, used to be good at iOS. I have not yet rooted/unlocked/whatever else. If I update to 4.2.2 and then flash .27, will I have to wipe my device?

Hey there! Welcome to the dark side! Lol

It can be pretty complicated the first time, but really it isn't. Anyone here will tell you the same thing and that is read read read. A good place to start is here

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1995688

Also, search YouTube for videos on rooting and installing custom roms on your particular phone. I found that was a great help if you want to see someone do it step by step.

I would suggest not even bothering with the Google ota updates and instead change to a custom rom such as aokp or cm10.1.

Once you do that you can pretty much flash what you want at your leisure.

But start with that link and go from there.

Good luck! =)
[Nexus 4 General] sspyed:
Basically I'm echoing everything santeana mentioned above this post, which is all good advice. Would just like to elaborate one thing that usually confuses new Android users:

After rooting--instead of doing any of that OTA mess, look around the development forums for a 4.2.2 ROM you find intriguing. Flash that & you're officially updated to 4.2.2 without having to OTA. You can then flash any radio you like at any time, and enjoy the freedom of having your cake & eating it too.

thanks efrant this helped me out -i flashed a rom over to my nexus the other night decided to go back to paranoid android however when i went thru everything and reinstalled said rom somehow i managed to lose the radio files for my phone,mind you it took me hours to to find this out anyhow downloaded your zip and phone is now restored - i love xda!- way to go thanks again would have been screwed otherwise so nice one
[Nexus 4 General] TheSoupNazi:
Thanks for the replies. As I understand it, rooting the nexus would wipe everything right? What's the best way to backup everything prior to doing so? Seems like Titanium Backup and most other backup apps require root. I've put it off for so long as I've never found the need to root or anything, been quite satisfied with everything so far. Pretty much one of the only reasons I'm considering is to update to the latest version while being able to keep LTE.
