nexus s 4g terrible reception and wifi

Hi all, i just got a nexus S 4g with poor reception and wifi where as my previous phone (optimus S) would get great reception in the same spot. I'm aware sprint pushed an update this july that addressed these issues (GRJ90) but my phone is on the lastest GWK74. any clues?
my phone:
nexus S 4g sprint

GWK74
baseband: D720SPRKE1

i'm willing to root and install another rom if it'll fix this issue.
thanks for any info!

maybe its a rom issue... root your phone and try cm7 stable 7.0.3 for ns 4g.. or try searching for a better radio that u can flash in your 4g..

RUU help - Am i doing this right??? EVO 4G

Trying to get back to out of the box stock software. Tried a RUU and still hasn't gone completely stock. I still have antenna signal (roaming issues)...basically can't get signal when I used to get full. It seems to be roaming on Verizon towers. Also, can't type certain areas of the screen or the letter I press does not input.
I researched and on stock Froyo 2.2 and running 3.70 I think I am suppose to be on 1.90 PRI instead of what I currently have downloaded PRI 2.15. Could that be the issue? If so, how do I downgrade properly to 1.90? I heard 1.77 has better battery life would that be a better alternative? Thanks for any help u guys give....I have been on this mystery for almost two weeks

What Device? OG EVO 4G ?

old skool EVO 4G.
I was given advice to do these two methods: I Did the link for the current radios and experiencing same problems. I guess I'll do the Mikg3.11 full swipe next. If that does't work I do not know what to do next.
here is the link for the current radios:
CM-EVO_Radio-2.15.00.12.19_PRI-2.33_WiMax_NV.zip
and here is the link to mikg3.11 which is waaaaaay better then stock:

Where the last EVO 4G ended up having antenna probs and dead pixels. Luckily, I got myself a used EVO 4G but it has the Cyanogenmod 7 rom on it and I cannot activate it to my pre-existing Sprint line.
Talked to Sprint customer service and they said that it needs to go back to stock program so that the command prompts to activate the phone will work.
I used flashed these files: CM-EVO_Radio-2.15.00.12.19_PRI-2.33_WiMax_NV.zip and PC36IMG and it did not get it back to the stock rom.
What am I doing wrong?

[Q] Wifi Tether not working on Galaxy S3 4.3

I have a rooted Galaxy S3 running android 4.3 on Verizon.
When I start the tether, android-wifi-tether (I can't post links, I am a new user. Forum limits. Search google)

I have searched and searched... No luck.

Any other info needed?
Anyone have any clue how to get this wifi tether to work? I like it becouse I can limit the usage in MB's. After so the LIMIT it shuts down to keep from going over my 10GB plan
It worked on my other S3 running 4.1.2. The phone was damaged or I would of kept that one.

If i was u. I would (assuming u saaferooted) install Safestrap and flash one of the 4.3roms. They come with the hot spot hack... How that helps u.

[Q] Noob question about radios

Sorry for being dumb but... I'm running CyanogenMod version 10.2.0-ville on an HTC One S, flashed using CMW, and everything seemed to be working fine. The problem is that I don't get 3 or H, only G or E, and I think my APN settings are all correct. I think I may need to flash another 'baseband' or 'Radio'? (Sorry for showing my noobs...)
I'm on T-Mobile in the UK.
a) Is there a special radio I need to flash?
b) Can I flash it 'within' my existing ROM, or do I need a new ROM?

Any help?

Did you make sure your phone is for the network your current carrier uses?
For example, a T-Mo phone will work with AT&T but only in 2G, voice and text.

Also, you could try to upgrade your baseband version, I remember after switching carriers my data never worked until I upgraded my baseband
