[Q] - Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey everyone,
New here... I have recently been trying out different ICS Roms, all very good and very well made. Although I am having trouble with my 3G... I have none where I used to have it all the time, or it does show but its greyed out and unable to connect to any internet connection.
Tried to google for answers but nothing really makes sense...
Phone Specs:
Model Number: Nexus S
Android Version: 4.0.3
Baseband Version: I9020XXkI1
Kernal Version: 3.0.17-ck1-cfs-g3580382 [email protected]#4
I hope the information supplied will help.
Thank you in advance,
Lee

Did you check your IMEI?

Check what about my IMEI number???

Do you have the correct IMEI? Sometimes the efs can get corrupted and you lose your IMEI (gets assigned a generic one). If that happens you lose connectivity.

Ah ok, not sure about all that, how do I check and also how do I resolve this issue if my IMEI number does not match.

My IMEI number on the back of the phone matches what is shown System Settings>>About Phone>>Status>>IMEI

[Q] Need Help on Nexus S 9023 signal problem

Hi all,
I just got a new NS 9023.
When I got it, the system was 2.3.6(I dont remember if that is official or not)
After some simple tests, I flash the rom to MIUI. And MIUI works fine.
One day later, I want my phone go back to official rom. So I download a 2.3.3 official rom from google.(The link was found on this forum)
Then the problem came - The signal is worse then before. I can't get EDGE, but before I flash the "official rom", EDGE works well. i tried lots of baseband packages but none of them works.
Can someone tell me what should I do now?
Here are some information:
product name herring
hw version: rev 52
bootloader: i9020xxka3
baseband: i9020xxdk1
carrier info: vof
A friend of mine bought a 9023 the same time as mine.
I checked his bootloader, only one different is the carrier info, it is EUR on his phone.
check the IMEI number and see whether it's true or not ?
system -> about -> status

Baseband seen from system is I9023XXKD1, which I consider is correct.
and signal strength usually between -83 ~ -93dBm both in office and outside.
Also, I found a radio dump bin on sdcard. Is there any way I can use that file?

At the top you say you have an i9023 but your bootloader and radio are i9020. So which is it? Is your problem because you flashed your phone with a stock rom for a different model?

Don't post your IMEI in public. I suggest you remove it. X1111 just wanted to check if your IMEI is changed, but that as nothing to do with your problem. Because if that was a problem, you couldn't get any signal at all.
As I can see, you are surely cofused which device do u have, and therefore flash wrong ROM/Radio. Did you try *#*#4636#*#*? If not try dial it, choose "Phone information", pres menu button, choose "Select radio band" and choose EUR band...
If that doesn't help you, wipe /data /cache and /system in recovery and flash correct stock rooted ROM. Hope that will help...
yes. i have a 9023 device and all 9023 around me have 9020XXKD1 information on boot screen.

Thanks tenhi.
I tried 4636 code and change my baseband to EUR. seems better now. but still not so good. i will keep testing.

I got a new sim...no luck..odin'd back to stock...then dialed a *# number and was able to get roaming data and voice even though my IMEI was showing as zero. Repair the imei via a tool here however i've been stuck roaming since. I'm back on CM 10.1 and have selected those options you selected.

Help!!!ATT LG G3 have IMEI number, but unknown Baseband Version

My phone is unlocked. Currently I use Tmobile. After I restore my phone from backup from crash, my phone get signal from Tmobile like on and off. When I check about phone, I see I have IMEI number, but on Baseband Version, it shows unknown. Can you please help me to fix this issue? Thanks you!!!

No network SM-G920F 350000000000006

I have a SM-G920F and one day the imei went 3500000000006. This made the phone go "No Network" and no sim would work in it. I then proceeded to repair (not change) the imei to its original imei as stamped on the back with numerous files and fixes to the point I am now abit lost.
The phone is now on Factory Binary bband vers G920FXXU6ERC1 BUILD NUMBER LRX22.FA50_G920FXXU6ARC1 and after reseting the EFS the imei is back to 350000000000006 / 02.
I have tried to "repair" the imei to back to its original imei but which I could do before but now I just get:-
Waiting ADB device... OK

The imei above is not mine that just appears when I try to repair the phone but *#06# says 350000000000005 / 02 and no S/N. The only FW the phone will flash with is
G920FXXU6ERF5_G920FDBT6ERF1_G920FXXU6ERF6_HOME.tar (BTU) using samfirm and the factory binary thats on it at the mo , all the rest fail in Odin.
Is the phone bricked or is it sw repairable ?. If it is repairable could someone please point me to the correct files that I would need and which program/s do I use and the order I flash the phone with the files ?. Any help or guidance would be greatly appreciated. I have spent the best part of a week reading up and flashing the phone but I'm now at the point were I honestly don't know which files , programs to use and in which order. Any help files or links, guides would be greatly appreciated.
P.S. just to make it clear the phone is not blocked it seems it just got corrupted somewere along the line and I am trying to restore the imei back to it's original imei not change it in any way shape or form and hopefully fix the "No Network" which is stopping any sim from been used.

This is what helped me. I couldnt even turn my phone on and computer didnt recognize it.
Thanks for that , I did try it but still the same. I think mines a deeper problem , something to do with a corrupt EFS or NV_DATA.bin. which files and how you repair it I think is my problem
