Last week i had same problem, i almost got crazy, but after all, the problem was in my provider.
Have you tried another sim card?
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA App
That is odd...
I am also with Rogers and I got my phone bricked when I first tried to root it because some guy posted a wack file which bricked almost everyone's phone..
Anyways to the point... I also got the same stock image from the link you posted but for the 2.3.4 update I got it from searching on google somewhere. (Think it was one of those "How to manually update Nexus S to 2.3.4" pages).
I just checked my phone info and it displays all the same info as yours... I am pretty sure I had 3G even before pushing the 2.3.4.... Try locking the boot loader and re unlock and give it another shot. If nothing works, just lock the boot loader after you install the 2.3.4 update and take it back to rogers and ask them to send it in for a fix.
hi guys... thanks for trying to help me...

Hello All,
I am a avid XDA reader and follower. I don't post allot, but do allot of reading and tooling around. That being said I have read and tried many different option for my issue.
Device: I9020T on T-Mobile US
Issue: "Baseband Unknown" / No Cell Service
-Under Settings/About Phone. My Baseband version = Unknown
-My signal bars are greyed out with a small "X"
-Everything else works, wifi, camera, ect...
When in FASBOOT the following is listed:
-Product Name: Harring
-HW Version: REV 11
-Bootloader Version: I9020XXKA3
-Baseband Version: I9020XXKD1
-Carrier Info: EUR
-Serial Number: This matches the on on my box
The issue started after I installed one of the latest KANG builds of CM7 nightly builds. I also had flashed [KERNEL] [gpl] NS/NS4G Trinity (E)UV and OC 2.6.35.13/.14 BFS .404, CM7 + m(any) roms.
This combo had been working good for at least 8-10 hours until I was listening to music through PowerAMP, when all of the sudden the music sounded like a CD skipping. The screen was unresponsive and no buttons or combo of buttons did any thing. I hesitated but eventually had to pull the battery.
When I powered the phone back up it hung at the trinity boot logo and just froze. After several reboots with the same results, I resorted to flashing a different ROM through Recovery. That's when I noticed the issue at hand.
As I was typing this I noticed it was strange that fast boot listed my carrier info as EUR??? Is this maybe because I'm currently running [ROM] Gingerbread Peter Alfonso (GPA17)? I flashed the ROM listed for my phone.
Anyways here is what I have tried:
-Flashing a NANDROID of stock 2.3.2 through Recovery
-ADB/Fastboot flashing the various radios for my model
-Flashing radios through Recovery
-Flashing ROMS meant for my phone with radios in them
-Even found everything I needed and used ODIN to get back to factory fresh!!!
So sorry for the long post but I am out of ideas and am thinking it my actually be a hardware issue.
Thought I'd throw this out to you all and see if there are any ideas I may have not tried.
Thanks in advance for any ideas or advice.
can you install a stock rom back onto it? There is a baseband selection mode that you may have to do.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1116884
1. Go to Dialer. Dial *#*#4636#*#*
2. Go to Phone information. Choose the preferred network to
"GSM Auto PRL" or "CDMA Auto PRL" or whatever you have.
3. Scroll down, deactivate and activate Phone Radio.
4. Press Menu button.
5. Select Phone frequency, then choose your country.
6. In the previous menu push the Home button to go back to Homescreen.
7. Reboot.
(By Brainmaster)
Ive had to run this a few times depending on radio and rom.
after many trials I am sticking with rooted stock.
Wow that is defiantly a menu I have never seen before.
It doesn't let me select any of the preferred carrier option. When I tap on GSM auto (PRL) it just closes and defaults back Unknown.

Ya, I think it is. RIP Nexus S. HTC Sensation here I come.
after you select gsm auto you hit the menu button on your phone then select the carrier. I know its not labeled what it is on the walkthrough but its similar. not phone frequency but like signal or something. then yuo jsut select usa.
reboot and it should find whatever your service is on its own.
have you tried going back to stock rom? I used this version to go back when i thought i bricked out my phone and its been great. I think my friend used it too but he wont admit he used somethign i gave him.

Same issue also involved the trinity kernel. Dev may need to be notified.

did you happen to flash the ns4G version of [ROM] Gingerbread Peter Alfonso (GPA17)? that would make sense then why you dont have any signal, considering your on tmobile and the ns4g is sprint.

Sorry to hijack the thread, but I have the same problem as the OP and I think this is exactly what I did wrong.
I wasn't paying attention when I updated Cyanogenmod and I chose the Nexus s 4G instead of regular Nexus s.
Ever since then my baseband has been "unknown" (except in fastboot, where is shows as KB3 (which I updated to as one of my attempts to fix it).
I have gone back to stock, no change. I have updated the radio, no change.
I have no idea what else to do. Does anyone have any ideas??

I've wiped user data/factory reset a few times now. Is there a higher-level format option that I should be using?
I thought for sure that going back to stock (based on these instructions - theunlockr.com/2011/01/20/how-to-unroot-the-nexus-s/) would work, but no such luck.
I find it perplexing that the baseband shows in fastboot, but nowhere else. *#*#4636#*#* shows radio off and network type unknown, settings/about phone/ shows baseband version unknown.
I tried different methods that I've found online over the weekend, but nothing has brought my radio back.
I am certainly open to suggestions!
I'm going to provide as much additional information as possible.
I have a Nexus S I9020A, running on Fido (Canada).
My initial problem stems from when I updated to cyanogenmod 7.1 from 7.0. My first (and likely biggest) mistake was not making a backup. Oops.
I think I accidentally chose "Nexus S 4G" instead of "Nexus S". As soon as I did that, I stopped getting any cellular voice or data connection (wifi continues to work fine). Under Phone Information, it said it was a Nexus S 4G.
The phone locks itself into airplane mode now. When I try to turn airplane mode off through the settings menu, it hangs. When I hold down power and choose "turn airplane mode off" it seems to work, but then I still get no signal.
I have pushed it back down to stock. It now remembers that it is a Nexus S (not 4G), but it didn't help the baseband problem.
I have tried to reflash the baseband. no effect.
I called Fido and got them to "repush" the SIM card. No effect.
I am humbly appreciative of any and all help that anyone can provide!
EDIT: Nvm! Lol just saw your post above mine lol just was to lazy to read lol
Not sure if you already did this but if u have root explorer or if u don't go to 4shared.com and type in root explorer v 2.16
Back up efs file first
Open root explorer and find the efs file. Press and hold/ Move :
"nv.log"
"nv_data.bin" and
"nv._data.bin.md5"
Into Root Of SD card... reboot phone and u should have ur 3G back

Thanks! This is similar to some other threads I saw on the android forum (and elsewhere on XDA).
I'll try this when I get home (and get to a reliable wifi signal).
Wow! I haven't looked at my post in a wile. Hopefully you all are getting some resolution to these issues. I ended up calling Samsung and they agreed to fix my Nexus under warranty. They replaced some parts that I can't remember off the top of my head, but it should arive at my door tomorrow!!!

Hmmm bad news... my efs folder appears to be empty. Now what?
A very frustrating day... Thought i would have it fixed pretty quick, alas....
My efs folder is empty. I guess that explains the lack of radio, but it appears that i might need to send the phone to Samsung to get the efs reflashed. Is there a way to write it back myself? Ill look tomorrow i guess.
Here is some more info:
I just tried to update to 2.3.6
Clockwork mod is giving me an error message:
Assert failed: getprop("ro.product.device") == "crespo" || get prop("rp.build.product") == "crespo"
E:error in [filename]
(Status 7)
Installation aborted
Not sure if that helps but it's another piece of thepuzzle hopefully.
*sigh*
So it appears that I need a backup of my /efs folder in order to fix this myself (which I do not have).
I know what my IMEI should be, however I have no idea if it is even possible to take someone else's backup and alter it the proper IMEI.
I fear my next option will be to submit it for repair at a Samsung repair shop (and be without a phone even longer )
ok here goes, first off, i apologize if this is in any way redundant to someone's else question. with the amount of people whose phone got wrecked with the 2.3.6 update im sure somebody has had the problem im having.
like many people i just clicked "install" when google pushed the 2.3.6 ota. my phone was running 2.3.4. rooted. when it rebooted, i was greeted with the android exclamation mark.
i happened to have a clockwork backup so i tried restoring my backup. and restore it did, but not the radio. after the google update my radio was something like NO GSXXK1 or so. i tried the radio fix here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=14564429&mode=linear#post14564429
i tried reflashing the stock 2.3.3 rom from google, wiping the bootloader and all. ive in fact tried many many things that ive read on xda and google forums.
now, ive managed somehow to have a running 2.3.4 with cell signal. using the efs file copy method in he link above. that restored my 3g and ability to place phone calls but sms arent working. i did the *#*#4636#*#* thing and notice that smsc is 00, i tried to set to the right value of +17057969300 for Rogers canada but all i get is an update error followed by a crash.
and now, funny, my search button is acting weird, like an eye that keeps twitching.
im not very knowledgeable in this stuff, just enough to get by and install custom roms but clearly im in over my head now.
why did copying my 3 efs file in the root of the sd card restore signal? i dont think these files really belong there, so just what the heck happened?
is there a way i can restore my nexus S to google stock rom when they shipped the phone? i mean, a complete wipe, sd, boot, radio...everything.
if i can start back with the stock phone, i can re-root again and start fresh.
any ideas please??
im physically tired of reading everything, misleading information and constantly flashing back and forth hoping its gonna work. oh and mandatory angry comment: thank you google for effing up my phone!
edit:
the only stock rom i tried i the 2.3.3 stock update available in clockwork. made no results.

my phone is a i9020a

Thanks dude, i had actually done that and did manage to get a signal back. its SMS that just wont work and when do the INFO thing to set the right value, i either get update error or a crash.
i installed stock rom 2.3.4 and install radio uckd1. that made my signal work even without having to move the efs files on the root of the sdcard. but still no sms.
is anybody else getting sms problems? this was working before the 2.3.6 fiasco.
im with rogers canada, in ottawa.
ok, just to loop the loop on this one and hoping it will be of use to somebody else.
my sms issue wasnt related to my phone at all, once i had a signal back, that's as far as the phone was concerned.
i placed a call to rogers to let them know i couldnt sms anymore.
long story short, they tried many things but ultimately, its doing the "hard" reset on the network for my phone that did it. im sure there a better name for it but basically they erased my phone from their network, i had to wait about an hour for the change to propagate. when i powered the phone back, it resynced everything and sms was back online without a single thing to do.
Just purchased a HTC Inspire off ebay for my wife and the wifi pops up with "error" everytime I try to connect. The bluetooth doesn't work either. I have no idea where to start and expect to get flamed for posting a question. I have read other posts similar but could find no answers. I don't know if this phone was previously rooted and had an error or how to go about re flashing it to stock or if it's even necesarry. Any help would be greatly appreciated..

Go to the HTC website and download the gingerbread Rom. Also download and install HTC sync.
After you run the ruu you will be at stock gingerbread. If things don't work then, your phone could be damaged.
Thank you for the advice, it took me a while to get the inspire to connect to my computer through passthrough but finally got it, and installed it to stock rom, but alas...that didn't fix the problem. The screen is cracked on the bottom left corner so I guess when I get my replacement screen in the next day or two I'll open it up and check the ribbons to see if something was damaged when it was dropped. So far though, no luck...
Hi everyone,
I have just started playing with ROMS etc. and its turned my sluggish old-looking p500 into something beautiful,
The only issue is I just can't seem to get the network to work. Wifi is fine, but no service with the SIM card I put in there. I don't even get asked to put a SIM code or anything.
I have spent the last few hours desperately trying to get baseband v20 on my phone since LGMDP was not recognizing my phone, and I finally got it to work, expecting miraculous results, but alas! nothing! Anyone have any idea what I can do?
Specifically I have installed this rom: [DEV][ROM][4.4.2][CM11] KITKAT for LG-P500 [WIP][VER-12 OTA]
but have not updated through OTA yet.
And i flashed v20g using a stock version (one which didn't come with my phone). I guess I will try flashing a stock which depends on the new bb and see if that works...
Also, I don't know if this matters, but I got the phone in canada a few years ago and am now putting a UK SIM in there.
Thank you so much for any help you can give!!!! I really want to get this to work!
-A
extra words:
Also, I deleted a bunch of stuff on my SD and know very little about how SIMs work, so if I have the "wrong kind" of SIM or if I deleted something (I have it all backed up) that I need to put back on the SD card to make this work, please let me know!
Thanks!

If baseband is correct, then check your APN ( Access Point Names ). Settings->Mobile Networks->Access Point Names.

With my old SIM, I can see the APNs from back in Canada, but when I put the new UK SIM in (which shows APNs on my wife's samsung phone) I see nothing listed for the APN.
Should I create a new APN with the same settings as from my wife's phone? Or do I have to do something else?
Does it matter wether the bb is v20c or v20g? As long as its for the optimus one I mean?
Could this have to do with my phone being locked? I'm not sure if it is locked or not... I was trying to unlock it using the code:
2945#*900#
Thanks so much for responding, I had all but given up!
but nothing happens when I put that in. Do I have to revert to stock rom for that to work?
Update:
I tried to put in the right APN info, but I couldn't save it for some reason. Doing some reasearch, I found that this might be a "Funny SIM" problem, but only see patches to fix this under CM9, and I am running CM11. Any ideas?
Cheers!

Patch may work. Old baseband patch worked thru JellyBean ( CM10 ).
What you're referring to, v20c, IS NOT baseband but software version. What version of Android was the device running when purchased? Anything under 2.3 is old baseband while 2.3 and newer is new baseband. There are two baseband patches floating around XDA. One for new and one for old. Old baseband patch can be found in my FAQ for the LG Optimus One. Post #8 I believe. FAQ

I thought I had upgraded to 2.3, but since it wasn't working I flashed the new bb using this guide :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1149530
and made sure that it had definitely flashed. My rom says it is baseband version V20g under the about phone section. So unless this ROM is supposed to be running the old bb (which it didn't seem like that was the case) the baseband version should be correct...
Also, I had previously tried the old bb patch which you are talking about; that didn't work either. What I understood was that "Funny SIM" is a different issue, but maybe I'm just reading the threads wrong.
Thanks again for your continued help!
Solved!
Okay, so it was because my phone was unlocked. I had to:
- Flash the stock ROM
- Flash the OLD BB
Then I was able to put in the code to get to the unlock screen. Once the phone was unlocked,
-Flash new BB
-Flash new ROM
And it works! Hooray! I'm not sure how to mark the thread as solved though?
