Phone (radio) only works on ONE rom - Captivate General

So I flashed Tayutama Themed JPM Rom with JPM modem, I9000 reoriented kernel & working HSUPA (10-20-10) and all works well. I then wanted to flash back to Cog 8.1, and flash was successful, only cannot access the network, I get a "not registered on network" error. I tried ODIN one click 2.2, ODIN 2.1 one click. ODIN cog 8 all with no luck. I flashed back to Tayutama rom, and radio works. Any idea what im doing wrong?
Thanks!

Fixed it! flashed a new modem to the phone and it works again.

[Q] Modems...

Quick question. I've flashed modems before when installing a rom (like any of the i9000 kernels) but was wondering if that modem stays when I flash a rom like, Cognition. Are there times when the modem stays? If I flashed to, I think it was JG8 to get HSUPA with an i9000 kernel, if I decide to go back to the CogKernel, do I have to swap out the modem again?

I believe when you flash COG it will also flash a new modem. I dont' recall which one DG has in the latest COG. Anyone?

[Modem] DI18/EB13 to EC05

This will upgrade your modem from either DI18 or EB13 to EC05.....
Flash this in CW and your good to go.
ALL Credit goes to Randy_T at Bonsai, he is the coding genius behind this script I modded slightly, sprinkled in some Autism Awareness and created a .zip for use on ANY ROM.
Enjoy....

If I didn't find using Odin so easy and not updated already I would have given this a shot. Great that users are getting so many different options. The Devs for the Epic are rocking as of late!
Is there a specific version of CM I should use for this? I have flashed it a couple times and it seems to work but when my phone reboots I am still on EB13.

No it doesn't matter which CW you use. What does the baseband version read? Under settings/about phone look for baseband. What's the version number.
is this going to wipe the data on the phone?

I re downloaded and flashed and now baseband is sd700.0.5s.ec05 so must have worked this time.
Your tireless work is very much appreciated.

I've flashed twice and still says I am on EB13. Will this not work with other ROMS?

Well, looking at the script, it checks a variable in the build.prop of the rom (located in the system folder) to see what it should update, so I guess it depends on if the rom is based on EB13, or if it is based on a newer/older version.
If, say for instance, the rom is based on DK28 (or EC05), even though the modem is EB13 (possibly updated through Odin, or even from stock EB13), the script will see your phone having the DK28 (or EC05) modem and not update it.
The only way I see to get by this is if the script is altered to check for a DI18 rom, and flash the DI18->EC05 update; and if it isn't a DI18 rom, assume it has the EB13 modem and flash the EB13->EC05 update. In which case, if the phone doesn't have the EB13 modem, it wouldn't work anyway (right?), and no harm done.
So, if this is your case, I would try flashing the other, specific, EB13->EC05 modem update.zip.

I'm running Viper Synergy which is an EB13 ROM but I did flash the other EB13 to EC05 modem zip and it's now showing correct in my About Phone
Is there any way to get from DK28 modem to EC05 without Odin? I don't have access to any computers that run Odin or Heimdall correctly.
yes i just posted a cwm zip that will update it using redbend_ua
Does this also work with EXT4??

I believe it doesn't make a difference if running rfs or ext4, as this upgrades/patches the modem while in CWM. But, in your case (running ext4), you have to be running an EB13 rom with the EB13 modem for it to work.

[Q] What am I missing? KJx

I've done this many times before but for some reason I got a brain blip going on here. I'm trying to get to KJx
Firmware: 2.3.5
Kernel: 2.6.35.7-T959VUVKJ1 (flashed in cwm)
Build: GB.VUVKI3 <-
I've Odin'd the KJ3 bootloaders however they're not sticking?

I'd try to ODIN the whole thing. The only thing I've flashed with CWM is dsexton's Adrenaline Shot updates. Not saying CWM is wrong, but I'm not as familiar with it as ODIN.
I'd go to CWM, disable voodoo, use ODIN to flash stock KJx, then use ODIN to flash one of drhonk's kernels with CWM (I think kj1 was his latest).
KJ3 only has the soft bootloader. The hard bootloader for 2.3.5 is in one of the KI builds, probably KI1. If you weren't on a 2.3.5 build before, you might have to Odin KI1 and then Odin KJ3 with the bootloader box checked both times.

[Q] Wrong baseband version on i9023

I have the wrong baseband version on my nexus s and now I don't have 3G anymore. I tried to go back to stock rom but it won't let me. Is there a way to go back to the original baseband sttings because I am now on I9020A instead of I9023. When I tries to flash the stpck rom it didn't go past the verifications becaise it thinks that this is a I9020A instead of a i9023.
i think we have the same problem.
in bootloader i see
BOOTLOADER VERSION - I9020XXKL1
BASEBAND - I9020XXKI1
my nexus is i9023 not i9020! how can i change it?
Don't bother. It's normal. Both the phones have the same baseband.

Yep, it was stated the same on GB. I presume they change it to 9023 in Settings/About phone just to avoid confusion.
Same problem over here.
Anyone knows a solution??

I went through the same problem not more than a week ago. The problem is your using stock recovery. So just flash a custom recovery like cwm and then flash a stock rom. Then install a custom rom right after. You will loose cwm again after this because you just flashed a stock rom so just download rom manager and flash cwm with it. All the best mate.

I already have cwm installed but when i try to install a stock 2.3.6 rom the installation is abborted; status 7. Also if I try to install 2.3.3 or 4.0.3 it gives me that error
Do you have the latest version of cwm?
The baseband XXKI1 is fine for I9023 regardless if it says I9020 or not, I9023 and I9020T are the same.
I9020A needs a different radio.
I have the latest cwm 5.0.2.0 but I have baseband I9020AUCKF1. I hate being on gprs
You have the wrong radio.
You said your phone is a I9023 so you need XXKF1 or XXKI1
Flash it through cwm
Do you have a link of the radios? I don't want to brick my phone again :S
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1116884
Everything you need is here!
Look through the android development forum for the new radio XXKI1 but the XXKF1 radio in the link I gave you will do fine!
EDIT: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1396532
This is for the XXKI1 radio.
I recommend you uprooted your phone, find stock i9020a rom and then installing it... Then you can root it again or something...

Do NOT do this.
The phone is an I9023.
Try flash the radios and see if that works, it may just be a corrupted file PR something, reflash and see how that goes.
Then IF that doesn't work try flash gb stock rom for I9023, 2.3.6 grk39f PR something like that bit try the radio first.

Need some help with nexus s

I manually updated my dad's phone to ics with the ota file. He has the tmobile version and it's not rooted or anything. So i booted into recovery and installed the ota file. It installed just fine but now he has no service at all. We placed the sim card in another phone and it works just fine so its the phone itself. When we go into the network operators menu it gives us this "error while searching for network"

Try the stock OTA. It usually comes with an associated radio.img for your phone model.

actually i had same problem yesterday.followed the stock rom advice and it worked properly.
as long as i have rom manager.4.8.3 i did a rom backup before installing ics update.
i lost the service in ics and then tried to restore the rom 2.3.6, same "error while searching for network".
all i did now is flashing again cwm 5.0.2. i downloaded nexus s stock rom 2.3.3 from rom manager too.
i flashed the rom and everything went back to normal.
thanks for the advice.
