Now I have a problem ... see my Official GB that I took a nandroid back up works perfectly with signal and etc ..
and right now I'm on ICS, But I like to customize more like when I had Gingerbread with Theme chooser and also ninja morph and etc .. and also some of the games I play in class FC on ICS
now for me.. I went to like 3 different CM7 roms but I get the same thing every time!
What happens is that It doesn't have any bars in the setup wizard .. and after I go to airplane mode and off (Like you usually have to with Mobilicity ) It takes a while to get signal .. but it's not regular signal; My phone goes roaming ... Anyway to get CM7 working on my Mobilicity Nexus S with 3G and non-roaming status when I'm in my house and etc -_-
Ok now even The Nandroid I took before flashing any rom doesn't even work anymore!? WTFlyingF!
You probably flashed a ROM containing a different radio, the new one shipped with ICS for 9020t users. You can flash a previous one to see if that helps you. You probably had KD1 or KF1.

Have you tried manually restoring your EFS folder? I hope you made a backup, or your ROM did when you installed it...
My ICS is working properly though without restoring ...
BBBBBBBBBBBBBUMP...
Brainmasters GB MIUI works perfectly .. but I need CM7
You need to wipe system and boot when switching between gb and ics. Data and dalvik wipe won't cut it.
In cwm mount menu, format everything except sd card, then restore your gb backup.
EDIT: do not wipe efs files while in mounts & storage, unless you already have an efs backup.
Yeah I did that when I switched to a GB just now and it works Thanks..
And I finally got the froyo bar

I wish I had known before flashing CM7 that many have had problems with the gps. I certainly do. I tried using my nandroid backup to go back to the Froyo ROM I had flashed from AddictiveTips, but backup and restore on ClockworkMod just leaves me with a blank screen. I've seen some tips on fixing gps, but most involving going back to a sense ROM and starting over. I'm not a computer whiz and some suggestions are hard to follow. I tried one involving Fast Reboot and Faster Fix, but it didn't work. Since ClockworkMod's restore won't work, I have to either wait for the CM7 gps problem to be fixed later or try re-installing the Froyo ROM from the SD card (which may or may not work). The gps with Froyo worked great. Any suggestions?
Nandroid backup didn't work?
And what problems are you having with gapps?
Me myself have problems in CM7 as well -> the gapps cannot be installed (well, CWM didn't mention any error when installing) but after boot up no gapps is there, after tons of research here and no solution too, and I rolled back to froyo.

CM7 working fine on my HD2. I'm running it from my SD though because I don't want to root.
From what I understand the GPS will not be fixed by a cm update its got something to do with the hardware you have to do http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=11853529&postcount=2085 this to fix it. After I did the gpsclr fix mine has worked flawlessly. Also I don't think its only cm roms that have this issue.

ah i mistook gps for gapps. my mistake... lol
Odd... CM7 works perfectly on my Motorola Droid and Nook Color and I've also never had a GPS problem (even on older nightlies). What make and model is your phone? And are you running off a CM7 nightly (if so what build?) or an RC (the latest is RC4 as far as I know)?
Gps worked perfectly using Froyo (rooted, ROM from AddictiveTips). I have an HTC Desire (CDMA) from US Celular. No, I'm not running off nightlies. I installed CM7 RC4.
The fix suggested above sounds like I would have to first flash a sense ROM and then come back to CM7. Other than giving me extra space for apps, it isn't worth it. I could get by with Froyo since everything worked with it. With CM7, the gps doesn't work at all. Maps keeps searching for satellites and never finds them. I really miss not having voice directions.

all you need to do>
get a fresh rom myns or any that you like in reality it doesnt have to be sense if you just want to get away from cm7 altogether
but then boot into cm7,
plug it into your computer
load the new rom onto your phone
boot into recovery
then install the new rom.
sound good?
I appreciate the suggestions, but I decided to go back to Froyo and my gps is working again! Unfortunately, Clockworkmod won't let me re-install any backups, and I have no idea why. All I get is a blank screen. Fortunately, I can install from the SD card, which I did to get Froyo back. Since nandroid backups don't seem to work, I have to setup my phone from scratch everytime I make a ROM change.
Well I ordered a G2X the other day and finally I received it. It came with Gingerbread 2.3.3 from the factory. (worked flawlessly) Keep reading.
After a couple days I wanted to try out CM7 on it. So, I rooted the phone by using NVflash and doing all that good stuff, then I flashed the phone with (Gingerbread OTA 2.3.3 Rooted flashable zip v1.0.0) I couldn't get root with SuperOneClick so that was my only option. Well I got root and that's when the fun started.
I installed CM7 on it, seemed to run fine, looked fine. But simple me, I wanted to go back to Plane jane 2.3.3 So, I did all the usual stuff (backing up, wiping data, formatting caches), then I ran OneClickRecoveryFlasher...and restored the phone with LG-P999-V10f.zip (supposedly a stock flash for 2.2.2)
well it all seemed to work fine apon finishing. It booted fine, ran ok. However now I have some really bad problems. The major one is that my wifi doesn't work worth a damn now, the connection is highly intermittent. I can't use the market to download apps because it dies out often, along with anything else network related. (browsing works 5% of the time) You catch my drift. My other android phones have no trouble with anything. Now here where it gets weird, I supposedly restored my phone back to stock. However, the phone reports a proper android version 2.2.2 which is what I flashed it to. However it shows kernel 2.6.32.9 Baseband is July 15th 2011. When I use LG's phone update tool it says I am running V21E which is Gingerbread 2.3.3 ...but that's not true because it is actually 2.2.2
I have no clue what to do, I am stuck. I just want to either have a stock G2X running either 2.2.2 or 2.3.3

You are probably going to have use Xboarders ROM then flash the unroot.zip he has in this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1158513.
See if that works to get you back to 2.3.3 completely stock.
It says that because it checks the baseband to see how recent it was, that's why it thinks you're on v21e.
As of now, there's no way to flash back to the old baseband, since people don't include the baseband in their ROMs, as that can cause a whole host of problems. The solution is to do exactly what tidewaterns said, that just gives you a little extra background info.
I am going to give this a try and see what happens, I will post results.
Well I tried the slimmed down version of Xboarders's rom and it seems to be working well so far. I originally installed his Stock OTA rom and that's when I started having problems. Oh well. thanks guys for all the help.
Crash course about root and roms: Superoneclick roots the rom you have in place. Flashing xboarders rom didn't "give you root" for the other roms you flashed, it is simply one rom out of many that is pre-rooted by the dev who packaged it up. When you flash it you have a rom that is rooted. If you had flashed CM7 (another rom that provides root access to its system files) then you'd have had a different rom that was pre-rooted by its dev.
Are you catching what I'm saying? Flashing xboarders rom didn't "give you root" any more than CM7 "gave you root." Root is built in to those roms.
If you want to restore to an unrooted stock rom browse the threads in the development section. There are a couple of stock nandroid backups posted that you can restore via clockworkmod recovery and then you'll have a stock unrooted rom. You can even do that and still have clockworkmod recovery in case you want to flash a different rom to your phone again.
And PLEASE remember when flashing from one rom to a different rom, WIPE WIPE WIPE data, cache, dalvik cache, then flash rom, then fix permissions, then reboot. This will save you SO MANY headaches.
G2X CM7
I learned something new Thanks for the info. And yes, this last time when I installed, I wiped and formatted just about everything I could possibly do, including fix permissions..seemed to do the trick.

Sweet! If you're simply updating to a newer version of the same rom you can probably get away with just wiping cache and dalvik cache and then flashing. Its just when you switch to a totally different rom that you need to do a full wipe. Gives you a clean slate to start with.
G2X CM7
I'm curious about one thing though. What would I accomplish by using Nandroid and flashing a bin? I see there is a BIN_LGP999AT-01-V10f-310-260-MAR-27-2011+0.zip file that is available for this phone, although I have no clue on how to install Nandroid. Anyways, wouldn't flashing a BIN be the ultimate way to restore the G2X?
So I have been messing around with the new ICS build from AOSP.
Since I have the unlocked white i9020a I have to use the 4g zip.
It installs and runs fine the only problem is that I get no service.
I've tried flashing different radios on it such as KB3 and UCKB2.
But when I head to about phone on it and take a peak at the baseband it says unknown.
Ummm why do u have to use the 4g version? I have an i9020a and I use the normal nexus s rom.
On an i9020a? Weird.
I tried using the regular 3g one but as I start the install it stops and says there is an error.
I have a similar problem. Trying to resolve now.
Yah I've been tinkering around with it and I just tried to run the regular 3g install after wiping the cache and etc.
: /
If your problem was like mine, no matter what I would get 0 service whatsoever. No edge, no 3g, nada.
Well, turns out my /efs folder was wiped or corrupt. not sure which one, but I downloaded this program: and restored my efs folder. I believe CWM makes backups now, or at least most ROM devs do now, it's apart of the script.
http://www.nexussforum.net/nexus-s-apps/(app)-efs-backup-and-restore/msg9658/
Restore efs, and service is back to normal.
No cell service, samsung capitvate Aokp ics build 28 rom. I try to set new apn, and nothing saves, I have also tried to flash a few modems and new roms...nothing is bringing back my network...plz help...thx
If you have flashed new modem and tried updating your apn please reflash. There is a good chance you screwed up your efs folder. Go back to stock and than back to ics
Sent from my SGH-I897 using xda premium
Rollback to stock GB and see if it works. Remember to go into APN and note the settings.
Then go back to ICS. Try mine if you are able to download it...
Having the same problem as OP. I flashed from Mosaic 9.
So bravo, you're saying go to the stock GB rom or just the bootloaders? I've reflashed with same results.
UPDATE:
Got it to work by flashing a different modem. I went to the following link:
http://soggycashew.weebly.com/cm7miui--ics-modems.html
downloaded the first one in the list, put it on my internal sd card, rebooted into cwm recovery, flashed it, and wala. Thanks anyways guys. I really appreciate all of your work.
might have to break down and go back to stock like suggested. tried several roms and several modems. It wierd cause i will have no cell service then like hours later I will have it or after a reboot i loose cell service again...sim problem possibly? i really dont know
I have no clue. These guys would know a lot more than me. All I can tell you is that I flashed the first modem on the list on that link, and it worked nicely. I'm in Wisconsin, and I'm using a go phone sim card.
Im on Seans SKY ICS. The latest leak. Its a great ROM. Mainly for me because everything seems to work properly with almost no FCs. My only problem with the rom is the modem/radio that came with it. I have terrible signal where I live. But after I installed everything, I litterally have to stand at the door/window to make/recieve phone calls. Some have reported good signal with the new radio, but not me. Everyone seems to report slower data speeds. So I decided to flash UCLD2 and see if it would help any at all. But no matter what I do the bandbase always says "unknown". Is it compatible with the new rom? I came from 2.3.6 with UCLA3. Now signal still sucked, but nowhere near as bad as UCLE2 that came with the leak. My steps were:
Reboot to recovery.
wipe cache
wipe D. cache
flash radio
reboot
fix permissions in rom manager
reboot to recovery again
fix permissions in advanced.
reboot system.
Ive done this 3 times....still refuses to work. What am I diong wrong?
Also, can I flash UCLA3 that came from gingerbread 2.3.6?
How about you try this: flash the new ucle rom from mohan his ics rom is compatible with a wide range of radios, go through each one one at a time until signal is sufficient for you maybe one will give you way better reception
So your saying maybe its the ROM that wont let me install UCLD2?
