I believe that Team Rogue has a new kernel that works with 4G, called Electra. Check it out in Dev section.

Thanks, I found that one after I posted.

Latest NS4G radio and other questions

Hey guys, new NS4G owner (coming from EVO 4G). I've been reading up on the forums and am absolutely loving it.. Looks like an awesome community here.. I have a few questions and I apologize if they have been asked b4, I'm sure they have lol.
When I bought the phone it came with 2.3.4, my baseband was D720SPRKD8. When I took a look at ROM Manager there was a download for D720SPRKE5. I downloaded it and flashed successfully.
Is the D720SPRKE5 radio the latest one?
Also, from what I've read it seems that ROMS for the non-4G version of the Nexus S are compatible w/NS4G, just wanted to make sure if that's correct? I don't have 4g in my area so that's really not a concern.
Thanks for any help guys, glad to be here, love the phone!

I can answer the baseband. Yes that is the newest.
As for the NS roms working on a NS4G, not to sure. But I use decks newest with matr1x kernel and its awesome.

I believe one of the recent prl updates lost 3G data when roaming. Only reason I see to swap prl, at least for me..

Well with sprint they have 2 separate PRL lines, being able to go to the business prl or an older national one is pretty nice. Especially since sprint roaming currently sucks

Hell yes . Great idea, vids are sometimes easier to follow. At least for me that is .
What about a Shift that is on 2.3.3. I just got my mother a Shift Sunday and it's on 2.3.3. I've been looking for a way to root it but not sure of the best way. Can someone please help?

Currently there is only temporary root for 2.3... that means when you reboot you will lose root access.

[q] can the skyrocket be used on tmobile 4g?

I was wondering if the skyrocket can be used on tmobile 4g i heard it had a programmable radio so it could be used on tmobile 4g is this true and if so can you pls link me to the page that has the info on it thank you to anyone who can help!!! :d
almost positive thats a NO.. maybe unlocking it which would probably cost you if even available..
I'm 100% positive that's a yes. Here's a basic writeup as I couldn't find the thread from my phone
sim unlock phone (there's threads on this but basically go to any unlock Site and buy a skyrocket code)
flash cwm
flash a radio from this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=20984406
I recommend blaze 4G radio
flash a t989 rom.
that's it, ur done.

hi man, could you give me a combo of Which rom + radio + kernel that use to get 3g/4g on and unlocked i727 using a Tmobile sim?
Links would be highly appreciated
i727 skyrocket
A man i was wondering did you ever get that radio to pick up 4g on your unlocked skyrocket? Because i am trying to figure out how to get 4g on mine.
I have 4g on T-Mobile. Just set the apn correctly. It was a little more difficult to do in the past but now you can just install CM9 the apn is already there for you. You just have to pick it. The blaze radio worked the best.
