Back to stock

Hi Guys,
My girlfriend have a Nexus S and I just flashed an ICS ROM and almost everything is fine, but shes complaining about radio performance. Everything was fine with gingerbread but now she gats poor signal from 3G network.
I dint have too much experience with the Nexus because I used a Galaxy S and now I have a Galaxy S II. With this models I can aways get completely back to stock using Odin.
I was just wondering with this is possible with the Nexus S, so I can put that smartphone back to stock and tell her to wait for que OTA update.
Sorry if this is a dumb question here but, you know, this kind of things changes a lot between different models of Android smartphones.

Change the Radio
what phone does she have? I9020T(t-mobile) or I9020a(AT&T) or I9023(international)?
usually ICS roms are coupled with the KI radio. Check if you have it in setting/about phone/baseband version
weak signals are usually caused by baseband/kernel. did you try flashing the stock ICS OTA?
My advice is just swap between KB3-KD1-KF1-and KI1
you might have stronger signal with one of them depending on your region.
Hope I helped

Hi guys!
Thanks a lot for the tips. I'll try to fix the signal thing first and if I can't I'll put the phone back to stock and wait for the OTA update.
Her Nexus S is a I9020a we bought in a travel to Canada and it worked ok in Brazil before flashing the ICS ROM.

The rom you have flashed contains the KI radio(works only on i9020t and i9023) and the rom itself also maybe incompatible for i9020a.
My advice is :
1-to download this ROM(its great)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1397358
2- download the new UCKF1 radio for i9020a:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1116884
follow the steps for installing the rom found in the same thread(including wipes and Gapps)
after flashing, dont restart you phone, flash the UCKF1 radio, wipe dalvik and then reboot.
you should be ok
Ps. even if you flash back to stock it will not work, because the .Zip stock roms on XDA are all OTA and do not contain radios as I recall, just a Rom. If you happen to revert back to gingerbread stock, make sure you flash the radio too

Hi guys,
I liked the idea of flashing a stock rom for the i9020a again, but this stock ROMs are coming in a .tar package that I just cant flash using CWM.
I really sorry for this dumb questions, but I'm used to deal with stock ou custom ROMs with the Galaxy S and now with the Galaxy S II. With this models I just flash a stock ROM with Odin when I want to go back to stock. I don't know how to do this with the Nexus S and I couldnt find that newbie guide using the search. Sorry.

[Completed] HELP! Need to find working stock rom for soft-bricked SGS2

Basically, I need a rom/kernel I can flash that is a stock rom. It would be very helpful if it is compatible with the 4 capacitive buttons model.
It is a SCH-R760 and I hope you guys can help me!
( I currently have siyah installed as a mid-way point, it isnt compatible with the model of the phone but it boots into the os so i can actually use it, still looking for help tho )

Hello,
I have sent you a personal message with a link to your stock firmware, it is the 2.3.6 though, that is all I'm finding for your model.
If i remember correctly, the S2 Epic 4G Touch(SPH-D710) firmware will work on your device, it has the 4 capacitive buttons on the bottom. I have the SPH-D710, when I first got it it was used, it had a stock SCH-R760X firmware on it, I restored it to the SPH-D710. The D710 has 4.1.2. stock if you want to try it.
You can find the D710(SPRINT) firmware at "rwilco12's Android Repository" every stock file that exists for the D710 is there, stock and custom recoveries, stock modems, stock firmwares, stock pre-rooted firmwares, everything.

Hi, ewerybody!

drive.google.com/file/d/0B7cQYadUyDvJUnBoem9nWS1HZjA/edit
but i don't understand: should I flash it with RSD on 2.3.6 only or flashing on 2.3.5 will be enought?
Thankful in advance for advices and any possible help.
