Ok, major screw up on my part. Accidentally odined the ATT Captivate stock files to my Showcase. Needless to say, i had a brick for a while. I have managed to get the phone back into download mode and loaded the Mesmerize software. The phone can at least make calls now, but no data yet. Does ANYONE have ANY odin files for CS? Or any advice would be good too.
Check your PM.
Ok, got stock CS software running on the phone again, but I still have no 3g or 2g data connection. Any thoughts?
Nevermind. Just forgot to do *228. Long day today.
Any chance I could get a copy of Odin for Showcase? I have to go back to stock for warranty purposes? Thanks!
I know this is an old post, but I cant seem to find the Ntelos odin files for the showcase. anyone got them?
I have the same problem. I have an NTELOS Showcase and I accidently flashed Cellular South Odin on it. Phone can still make calls but its crippled. No 3G and its just crap! Not sure what to do. I just want it back to Stock NTELOS again

Having the same issue. I accidentally flashed US Cellular stock files on mine and now I have no 3G. There's no development support for Ntelos and no one seems to either know what to do or care to help.
This is for the generic showcase http://rootzwiki.com/topic/19968-odingeneric-showcase-ntelos-fa10ei20eh09/
CSPIRE Showcase
I am having trouble getting my sch-i500 back up and running. I had updated to ics aokp_fascinatemtd_build 28, but ran into the problem of it showing that i was on verizon towers. I downloaded and tried to odin a cspire modem but no help. also tried *228 before and after the modem file. I can get cwm4 fixed for cm7 to come up and also the download for odin screen, but none of the files i have downloaded will work. it gets to factoryfs and hangs up. I have downloaded almost all files from rootzwiki labeled for use with cspire. any help will be appreciated.
ok so i got my phone up and running, aokp ics. but it was showing verizon as my carrier. I downloaded the cspire ei20 modem file from rootzwiki, used odin with atlas2.2.2.pit, put the modem file under phone section as instructions on rootzwiki said, checked repartition and clear phone efs, now the phone will not turn on. I can still get to download and intend to redo the aokp when i get home this evening. but how do i get the modem for cspire to work?

so like a kid in a candy store i got ahold of ROM manager and ODIN and started flashing cool looking roms..next thing i know, the t-mobile logo is popping up and i am a not-so-proud owner of a modded T-Mobile Captivate, no longer an ATT Galaxy S!
of course the t-mobile network uses different frequencies and the like, so the phone part of my phone stopped working...bummer! i grumbled as i flashed back to a ROM that worked with the ATT network (FUSION it is called) but apparently that ROM does not mess with the internal network settings thats why it worked so well initially it didnt change the stock cell internals...
so now i have a hybrid phone, half-tomobile half-att half Fusion, and it only picks us signals from the Edge network!!! i barely get any reception so it pretty useless...
so i need some help...i can i get this beast back into a condition where is will work as an ATT galaxy?? also, for whatever reason i cannot mount or download market apps to the phone tho it does pickup wifi connections...
any help/ideas appreciated...advTHANKSance!

Flash back to stock with odin 1 click. Or try just flashing a new modem with cwm.
Sent from Serenpitidy x.x
ok...i finally fixed the mess i made by using this process...
manually set the modem/APK using this guide...may or may not have been needed in the end...

I just got a new Nexus S purchased from a Rogers store here in Canada.
I am eager to start flashing some new ROM's and such but I have learned some things in the past with my SGS and I really want to make sure I have my stock radio available in case I need to flash it back.
i9020AUCKB2 is my stock modem. I have some newer modems ready to flash but I am worried that it will cripple my 3G connection to Canadian carriers.
I have looked and can't find this modem anywhere. Also I don't know how to back it up myself. I have already done a CWM backup but I have read that this doesn't backup the radio firmware.
Does anyone know how I can easily backup my own radio or where I can download it from?
+1 I've been searching for the last few days info about the exact same thing. I just sold my i9000m and was hoping to flash some new roms with this phone too but not gonna try until I either have a stock odin version of this rom or at the very least the CKB2 modem.
+1 same boat, want to know this too
Just bought Nexus S yesterday Telus baseband I9020AUCKB2.
Rooted and installed CWM 3.0.2.4 and flashed CM7 (Great ROM) baseband remained the same
from what I've been reading in Nexus S dev, Odin is something we should try to avoid if possible. I came from Fascinate T959D and I thought about it but that's probably one of the easiest ways to brick if you don't know EXACTLY what you're flashing and WHAT you're flashing it on.
Odin = last resort
lucidcoin20 glad to hear that flashing CM7 didn't change the baseband, I didn't have the courage to try it. I wouldn't flash just anything with odin but if you can find the right files it will get you out of a mess pretty quick. I agree its not for noobies with no clue what's going on but if Samfirmware comes out with the 9020a rom I'll make sure to have it on my pc for an emergency.
But from my phone wich is a Koodo version (went with them cause they were so cheap outright so I could go just cancel and go back to bell) we all have the At&t version so all Canada is the same. Hope it all works that way so I can go on CM7.
But would still like to learn how to backup the radio file in case I ever need it in the future.
Well I went ahead and flashed KB3. My speeds are less than impressive but I still have 3g with Rogers. Still looking for KB2 though to do some more testing.
Have you tryied KB1 radio, works good for me, i believe it is a US radio.

Flashed KB1 and KB3 and tested using speedtest.com app, three separate times over wifi and cellular network - the KB1 was roughly 10-15% slower than the KB3 for me..
KB3 labelled my radio as "ATT" btw

LMAO did the same thing but for rogers saved $75.
If you look in Q & A forum, there is a post for a clockwork flash, K2B radio, just posted in that forum today. I have flashed the radio, work great fore me.
You can get the KB2 radio file on my thread in the General forum at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=13077026
Thanks a lot, I was unaware that the Canadian carriers used KB2. Currently I am using KB3 and I noticed that sometimes the call breaks up, however I am not sure if its the firmware to blame. Does anyone have similar experiences with KB3?
I have tested KB2 and KB3 and my tests are not constant. Sometimes I get only 1MB or less down and up, sometimes I get 5MB down and 3up.
I'm not sure why the tests are so different. I can do the tests one after another in the same place and get completely different results.
I am with Rogers and I am using the Speedtest app. I noticed at one point the speedtest app was connecting to a server in Quebec which made no sense since I am near Toronto. The test results I mentioned above do not take the Quebec tests into consideration.
I have a NTELOS SHOWCASE \ Galaxy S Sch-i500 that is not in a happy place right now. Encountered a bad flash and did not backup phone before I did it. The only way to get the phone unbricked was to use a US Cellular Mesmerize flash to get it back up and going. Unfortunately I cannot get any data access on the NTELOS network with it for some reason. I can make and receive calls and text messages but no data!
Is there ANYBODY out there that has a full flash for the ntelos showcase? Any kind of flash? odin, cm recovery backup? whatever!
If there is anybody who can help be bring my phone back to stock ntelos again or atleast help me get my data connectivity back using my current US Cellular firmware that would be most appreciated.
Hi, I was wondering if you ever got any resolution on this. I actually flashed mine to a point of having nothing, but finally figured out how to get my phone to work again - however I'm still having trouble with the data. Any help is appreciated.
Thanks!
Unfortunately no. I did find an odin backup for the phone and I loaded it on and the phone is "working" again but its not on any network for some reason. Cant do *228 because it finds nothing and says failed. So its just dead in the water I guess.
OK
I was having trouble with ICS ROMs and decided to go back to GB.
I chose Silver's GB rom and was mostly happy with it but could not get LTE even in places I know have plenty of signal so I decided to go "bone stock Rogers"
So I Odined back to "stock" using I727RUXKJ7_I727RRWCKJ7_RWC from SamFirmware, and even reset the flash counter.
Mostly looks OK but I still don't seem to get into LTE mode even when I'm in the city (it used to just switch up as I progressed down the highway, then drop back as I left the city (Ottawa))
I tried reflashing just the Rogers modem Radio_RIL_I727RUXKJ7.zip, but no difference...
Today I thought I would see if Kies recognized my phone as being "stock", so I let it do it's upgrade and connected my phone... it saw the phone but reports it as "Your device does not support software upgrading via Kies."
The firmware it sees says "Current firmware version: PDA:KJ7 / Phone:KJ7 / CSC:KJ7 (ATT)"
I suspect that the "(ATT)" is where the problem is (maybe for my LTE issue too??)
Anyone know how I get the CSC to stop reporting itself as ATT?
Thanks,
Jamie

Cany ANYONE tell me where I can find the Rogers CSC? I can't seem to find a way to extract it from the md5 file. ('cause I have no idea of the file format)
Is there a way to find and edit the file right on my phone instead?
not the right file, the rogers one is "I727RUXKJ7_I727RRWCKJ7_I727RUXKJ7_HOME.tar.md5" , everything u need to know is here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1652398
Thanks again,
That worked perfectly... back to stock, re-rooted, and restored... Kies once again recognizes me, and I'll find out Friday, when I get into the city if the LTE is back to working again. (and IF Rogers ever drops ICS I'll be able to install it)

I upgraded 2.3.5 but HATED it, so I decided to flash back 2.2.1. The problem now is that I get no service at all. I tried dialing *228, but it said I needed to turn off airplane mode to make a call (airplane mode was not on). Can anyone help me get my service back? If any extra info is needed, please let me know.
Samsung Mesmerize US Cellular 2.2.1 Froyo
Well, I've been searching around and it seems as if I need the radio file for EE19. So far, every download link I've found is 404. Does anyone have that file?
EDIT: I had bricked my phone, but I figured out how to un-brick it. Still need that radio file and the method for installing it if anyone has it.
Nevermind, I got it working. I don't know for sure what did it, as I did pretty much the same thing over and over every time I bricked it, but one time I just happened to get service.
Here's what I did to get service:
1. Bricked my phone accidentally
2. Flashed DI14 using ODIN v1.83 (Make sure you select it from the PDA button)
3. Restarted phone, made sure it worked.
4. Turned off phone and flashed EE19 using ODIN (again, make sure you select it from the PDA button)
5. Turned phone on, and it had network access for no reason.
I had done this exact same thing a few times before, but I didn't have network access until the last time. I don't know why it worked, I just know it did. If anyone else is having the same problem, I hope this works for you, but no promises.
Also, if you do end up bricking your phone, the best way to get it to work again is to use ODIN to flash DI14, turn on the phone, then remove battery and flash EE19. Then you can upgrade from there.
