[Q] Nexus S Status 7, No baseband, root doesnt work, no backup - General Questions and Answers

hey guys, currently hating myself for rushing into this so badly...
i DO NOT have a backup of my stock rom
ive rooted my nexus s, it is the i9023 (thats what it says on the back) and im looking to either unroot it, or connect to my carrier through my current rom (peter alfonso 4g ics)
My phone isnt 4g, its 3g.
whenever i try to flash the rom for unroot (i9020t_9023.zip) i get the seemingly common Status 7 error... but ive google it aplenty and have found no fix
even if i did want to change the rom, i cant, because the pete one is the only one that seems to work... feel free to make suggestions, ill try them.
the last thing is my carrier. im on vodaphone australia prepaid. im not exactly sure how, but apparently reflashing the radio helps?
thank you for your help

Can someone help me installing a new rom on my phone?

I have a problem with my HTC Magic, some time ago, it just stopped getting a signal, and it wont connect to the network. Have tried to replace the sim card with another, but it didn't work. So i was woundering if it would help with installing a new rom, or radio? - can someone please help me with this, i don't know anything about how to see what version i have installed or anything.
You need to provide more information.
Are you running a Rogers stock rom?
As i said, i don't know anything about all that. I've just upgraded my mobile at HTC's site, with the HTC Sense rom
Sounds like you should be checking with your carrier for tech support first. Flashing the radio or a new ROM might just make things worse.

[Q] captivate radio set wrong after flashing t-mobile ROM by accident - no backup

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.

Last week i had same problem, i almost got crazy, but after all, the problem was in my provider.
Have you tried another sim card?
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA App
That is odd...
I am also with Rogers and I got my phone bricked when I first tried to root it because some guy posted a wack file which bricked almost everyone's phone..
Anyways to the point... I also got the same stock image from the link you posted but for the 2.3.4 update I got it from searching on google somewhere. (Think it was one of those "How to manually update Nexus S to 2.3.4" pages).
I just checked my phone info and it displays all the same info as yours... I am pretty sure I had 3G even before pushing the 2.3.4.... Try locking the boot loader and re unlock and give it another shot. If nothing works, just lock the boot loader after you install the 2.3.4 update and take it back to rogers and ask them to send it in for a fix.

[Q] MD5 Mismatch

Koodos Nexus S i9020A.
I took ICS update a few days ago and phone was very buggy... not to mention no data. I wanted Gingerbread back... Looked in this forum and found a post how to unlock and recover to gingerbread. Followed dirrections and got phone unlocked and before restoring to gingerbread, I took a backup. Then did the gingerbread restore. The phone booted fine (with the now unlocked symbol at bottom). A voila in gingerbread... But no service (no bars with a x). Phone funtions fine other than not being able to call, text, or use 3g. After futher searching I found that there's diffrent versions of Nexus S software. And didnt put the i9020a file on it.... so im assuming thats why its not working. I went back into CWM and tryed to restore my backup I made... I get MD5 Mismatch... I also wanted to be sure it wasnt my SIM card so i put my girlfriends SIM card in and same thing no service..PLEASE HELP... I know im a NOOB to the fullest.. but I really dont have the money to buy a new phone. Thanks in advance for anyone willing to give me some help.

[Q] HELP! Desperate here. WIND htc amaze ROM

Hello,
Hope you guys can help me. I'm lost right now. (COMPLETE NOOB)
Yesterday I rooted my htc amaze 4g with Hasoon's tool and it worked. Then I installed the Speed 8.0 rom on my phone and everything worked except that it did not recognized my mobile data. I could not even see the 4g in the corner next to the signal symbol.
After that I thought my Wind phone might not be 100% compatible with that ROM (since the rom might be for tmobile phones or something) so I tried the FastAmaze rom but the same. Now I'm trying to go back to the Stock rom, but I cant.
I tried downloading the RUU but once I start the process, it can not be completed. I don't get an exact error it only tells me that the usb might not be connected to the phone or to check the battery. I tried the same thing many times.
I really need data on my phone (Plus I'm paying for it). Can someone help me to restore the STOCK rom or to get data in the Speed or Fast Amaze rom? To avoid future problems I would prefer to just stick to the Stock rom, but if is not possible then as long as I can get data on my phone I'm happy.
A 1000 thank you to all of you.
PLEASE HELP!!!! (Again, I'm desperate)
