You would just wipe cache and dalvik cache and flash the radio in cwm. You can flash the radio twice to make sure it sticks.

WHY IN THE HELL DID U DO THAT!!!!
stay away from things thats not meant for your phone..!!
your phone is not an unlocked one so its bound by the terms and conditions of the network operator!!!
now what u can do is try to root your phone somehow.. flash another rom..
else u and wait for update from ur cellular provider and update again..!!
GOOD DAY
See if you can boot into recovery and then install stock rom.
Thank you for the info. So far I have not been able to get it to boot into recovery. If you have any other suggestions they would b much appreciated. Thank you again

i9020a radio 4.1.1

So I've gotten jelly bean installed on my Nexus S, granted I do have the Sprint i9020a CDMA version, I realize no radio was included, however, I flashed the latest radio that I had and JB doesn't see it, I used the i9020a version from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1784497
Is it just that there is a GSM version of the i9020a(didn't think there was) or is there something i'm missing, never had this problem before when flashing roms. Right now it says baseband "unknown". Which is telling me the ROM is only looking for a GSM radio I take it.

i9020A is gsm (the only diff with i9020T is the 850MHz for 3g). there was never an i9020a cdma version. maybe you;re confusing it with nexus S 4G (D720)?

Oh I see, well no I had read that 19020a was Sprint only, didn't know there was a GSM variant :/
So if I flash an AOSP version over this will it be ok? or should I just wipe and start fresh to be safe?
isn't the i9020a an att gsm phone? OP, remove your battery and tell us what it says on the phone itself. I'm thinking, along with others here, that you have the ns4g (d720).

1st make sure what model you have and flash the proper radio

Well, I did that and everything is good, however for some reason Google Play Music, refuses to see my music, and Settings refuses to see my ringtones, etc from the sdcard partition
edit:yes i did a full factory wipe when I installed as well.
I would start by looking through the thread of the rom you flashed. Sounds like you may just need to fix permissions or possibly wipe & reflash

Samsung Galaxy S2 HD LTE SGH-I757M Root and Modem Flashing?

Hello everyone,
My friend (who isn't very experienced with android) wants me to root his Bell Galaxy S2 HD LTE SGH-I757M. The only thread I found about this phone is this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1740188 . My main question though is, Can this phone be converted to work with T-mobile network frequencies like the Skyrocket? I'm assuming that the modems from the T989 and the I727 will work on the SGH-I757M? Any input is greatly appreciated.
thanks
Any one know anything about this phone?
I'm actually looking for these same answers. If i find anything out I will post an update and I hope you will return the favor.
Just searched "i757m" and found this thread at the top of the results.. easy as pie...

that doesnt have anything to do with unlocking the aws bands....
Well, it's just a start as the OP has linked other useful threads in his signature and in post#3. I guess you can PM the OP and/or post in the Q/A section as it seems all i727M discussions are posted on the i9100 board.
I found information on changing the modem, as for unlocking all I had to resort to purchasing an an unlock code.
PM me if you need help rooting and changing modem or anything like that.

Changing Modem on i757m to work with wind mobile or t-mobile
Hello,
Wondering if you can help guide/instruct me on how to change/install a t-mobile modem on my i757m.
Would like to make it work on Wind Mobile or Mobilicity. I did some research and found that t-mobile's samsung note 879's modem can be flashed on my i757m. I tried flashing that modem in ODIN but keep getting fail.
Would you be able to assist me?

Hello and thanks for your reply.
I'm fairly new to Android, switched over from blackberry couple months ago.
Do I have to root the phone before flashing the radio/modem or just flash the zip file in recovery mode through SD card?
Also my i757M is on gingerbread right now, would it make a difference if I flash the modem from t879 from t-mobile?
Please, any help would be appreciated.
Thanks again.

I'd learn how to use odin and then find the ics rom for your device and flash it. Then worry about the modem.

You have twrp or cwm on your phone? Download the modem zip file to your phone. Then flash it with twrp or cwm. You can wipe the caches first if you want but not necessary

[Q] Extracting radio/modem from GB2.3.5

Hello, my wife and I both have SGH-I727 (ATT)..they are both unlocked. I use ATT she uses Straight Talk wireless. I have GB 2.3.5 (UCKJ2), she has ICS.
The radio/modem/gps on ICS sucks. In GB is just fantastic. I want to extract the radio from my device, then either CWM apply it from a zip file to her or via ODIN.
How can I do this?
I did find the ATT UCKJ2 modem/radio which on some forum which I was able to apply to her phone via CWM, but the code was apparently locked to ATT and therefore Straight Talk Wireless did not work.
I would therefore like to try to extract it from my phone and apply it to hers.
I have searched and searched but have not found a way to do this. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
THanks!
Have you checked if the apn is the same for the phone that works and the one that doesn't? You may have to manually input the apn.

jd...thanks for the reply...after I flashed the UCKJ2 ATT radio from a thread I found here, I did not check the APN settings. Maybe I did not make it very clear but my ATT SGH-I727 (GB 2.3.5) was not used at all to flashed the Straight Talk (ST) one (ICS). That is what I am trying to do. However,
if you are saying that flashing a new radio may change the target phone APN settings, understood. I can try to flash again (I restored everything back from a CWM backup I had taken before the flashing) and then check the APN settings after the flash to make sure they are still there and correct.
thanks!

I wasn't very clear either. Flash the radio you want to try but then make sure the apn matches the carrier you want to be on.

I may be wrong, but I don't believe any of the radios are locked to att. It's the phone that is locked. If you got a no sim error it was probably a bad radio flash. If you look for vincoms one stop sticky in the development forum you'll find links to all sorts of radios.
