or i need to update without the radio or doesn't matter ?
please let me know
Thanks

What I was told that data and mms would have to be redone but talk and SMS wouldn't so really not a biggie but from the mixed reviews of the update I'm holding off on mine.

the problem is that i can't see my current apn settings so i cant restore it later, when i go to "mobile network settings" there is no apn settings
all i want is my data to work, mms isn't important to me
thanks

Same here Ive upgraded my mines and my wifey, no problem! Some people might be having problems cause they cant update there profile to begin with, if you have a 100% working flash then evrything is gonna stick, but if your getting the couldnt not update or could not verify then you might have to play with mms settings and data a little!

Can somebody please tell me how you flashed the nexus s to boost. Or give me a link with step by step instructions. Thank you.

Help plz!!!

I'm no flashing noob, but today I tried the miui ROM and after like 3 minutes it loses all signal. Restored back to a working android backup and still no signal. I'm freaking out!!!!!!!

Do you still have your IMEI? Is your phone number wrong?
If you don't have your IMEI, you'll need to fix it. You'll find some links in Android Development or Original Android Dev here.
If your phone number is wrong, you'll need to reboot a few times.
If your phone number is right, and so is your IMEI, try the phone info app via wifi if possible.
If your phone # and IMEI are right and you can't get phone info, back up anything on your internal SD card and dial *2767*3855# on a stock ROM. It will wipe your phone and should fix the problem.

Found the *27 thingies in another thread
All is good now

[Q] (noob) Help, tried flashing cm10.1 and now I dont have cell signal or data

So I am a noob but have successfully flashed a few roms onto my phone with no issue. Today I tried to flash cm10.1 and all hell broke loose. I flashed cm10.1 though clockworkmod (now I know that was not correct) and then reset everything and did it though bootrecovery. I also flashed the gaaps and now I do not have data or local cell service. It is showing that I am roaming (like i am out of the country) and asking me if I want the data on and would be charged for it. Any help would be greatly appreciated, at this point I have a phone that I cannot use. Thank you in advance

Check out the thread under Original Development. Known issue on that build.

How to add an APN (rooted 4.1.1)

Im in Costa Rica on vacation and I just upgraded my wifes Verizon S3 to 4.1.1 in order to unlock the GSM capabilities of the phone. I placed a Costa Rican sim card in the phone and voice calls work great. I have paid for a data plan on the SIM card, but I can not get data to work.
I was told by the phone company here to set my APN to 'kolbi3g'. Unfortunately there is no option to to add an APN.
I just rooted my phone, and I still have no option to add an APN.
When I go to More settings -->Mobile Networks --> APNs and I click the menu button all I get is "Reset to default". With a rooted phone there has to be a way to set the APN
Any help?
Sidenote- I have a rooted RAZR MAXX, and voice and data work great
Thank you

1. Get apn manager pro.
2. Get titanium backup pro.
3. Install both and then make apn manager pro a system app in titanium backup.
Remember they both have to be pro version for it to work

Awesome I will try this today. Thank you...
I would love to be able to do this instead of going through the hassle of installing a custom ROM.

With or without a custom rom you still have to do this.
Also there is less hassle using a custom rom like clean rom or synergy or beans imo.

That worked!!!! Thank you so much

Won't Activate Mobile Data (Sprint)

Hey all. I flashed my first rom today and its just stuck on "activate mobile data service". If I press skip, it would be able to make calls but no 3g data. I took out the sim card and still no luck. There is no APN settings on the mobile options. Not sure what to do here.

Call Sprint (using a phone other than your Nexus 5) and ask them to re-provision your data. This happens quite frequently on other devices also after flashing a new ROM with Sprint service.

Just keep in mind that neither Google or Sprint have to support the custom ROM. While they may not know that you are on the custom ROM, I would just put it back to stock and see if it work first.

I found the fix. There's a flashable apn zip for sprint that got me data.

[FIX] Get Sprint Data To Work On Custom Roms.
sent from my HAMMERHEAD neXus

I have the same problem
Hi guys I have the same problem. My sprint Galaxy s4 had a custom rom installed,and sprint told me I cannot activate my phone because of this. Anyhow I installed the factory rom on it. After that they activated it for me, I'm wondering if I can root it again and flash an custom rom again. Please someone help. Would it affect my phone service.

Um this is nexus 5 forum
