[Q] ATT Nexus S JB on Telus questions. - Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi all,
I currently have a ATT version of NS with CyanogenMod JB. I have switched over from Rogers to Telus (Swapped out sim cards)
My question is what is the best baseband radio for my new telus setup?
Although it has been working okay, a couple of days ago, the calling part quit working. I can dial someone and it rings, but I cannot hear them or they hear me when we connect. I can also receive a call, but when I answer, the same thing happens.
I can still send recieve data (3G), and I can do messaging, but not calls.
Thanks
Heeter

I have a telus SIM in mine recently any reception has stopped working only get rogers signal :/ KB1 or KB3 work well around the same. hope it helps.

I have KJ1 for Telus in Montreal and it's the best compromise between Stability and Speed. KB3 is the fastest but unstable. KF1 is most stable but one of the slowest.
Try it out and let me know!

Thanks for that,
I am on KF1 presently, but not happy with quirky calling stability since two weeks ago. Calls are just not getting through. Even got the SIM card replaced yesterday, to no avail.
Updated CM10 to the latest nightly too, So now I must try a new baseband.
Will try and post back later.
Thanks

Edit: do you have a link for that KJ1 baseband? cant seem to locate it. Hopefully flashable through CWM.

Thanks!!
Will try and report back, still having issues, to the that I stopped using the phone.

Calls Being Dropped!!?!?!

Hey guys, for the last week my phone has been dropping calls, sometimes when i answer or even in the middle of a conversation I don't hear anybody on the other side all i hear is my voice being echoed back to me.
Getting frustrated.....should i install that new radio that has been floating around, maybe that will solve the problem?
Rom: Dutty's DualTouch V2
Radio: 1.27.12.17
I've been running this setup for at least 3 weeks now.
Thanks for any help.

Yeah, In The Last Week I Have Benn Having The Same Problems....
hrmm weird....and we're both running different radios...hopefully someone has a solution to this, i use my kaiser as my business line....not very good when your calls are always being dropped.

Since Wednesday, radio 1.27.12.32 no longer works for T-Mobile in Norcross, Georgia area. I tried on both Kaiser it didn't get signal. But other radios got full signal.
well that sux...wonder if that thing works up here in Canada.
anyway, I think this is a rom issue not a radio issue.....just a hunch...but still hoping to hear some feedback and hopefully a solution.

Funny you should say that, I've experienced severe signal loss with 1.27.12.11 in Tampa, Fl. that same day.
I switched to 1.27.12.32 & all is good ... but, I am on at&t.
Something is definitely going on.
umvagia0, switch up your radio till you find one that works for you & it's not a ROM issue!
i'm on att in the new york area and was haveing a similar problem. tried a couple of different radios, finaly tried .31 and have useing it for 2-3 weeks. the problem is not totaly gone but is a heck of a lot better. out of 100 calls 20 will drop and i know 1/2 are att problems (dead spots). hope this helps
i think it is something with at&t network. My dads phone is bone stock and his would loose signal completely. And now mine with schaps rom and 12.32 radio is being weird as well. i get singal but no calls come thru and sometimes i cant dial out. So this is what i did i just shut off 3G and bam my problem is fixed. This only happens in our house and other thing i have noticed is if left on automatic phone keeps cycling between 3G and regular network and it never did it before.
So after 6 lines of *****ing my conclusion --> its the at&t network
ditto for me in the SF BAy Area. Got Q's Rom with the latest ATT Radio.. was fine for a week or two then this past week i've been dropping calls, extended connection times (seems like the phone hangs but actually just waiting..), and having intermittant issues with data as well.
thought it was the radio too.. but it seems like ATT??
My fiance with a ATT Samsung 'sync' is having dropped calls too.
Well, I'm glad i'm not the only one with this problem. I'm not on the at&t network, i'm running it under the rogers network up here in canada.
I switched radios to 1.27.12.32 earlier tonight....hopefully that will work out a little better for me... i'll keep u posted on it.
thanks for the help.
it could be the bluetooth problem??? are u using bluetooth when the call drop?? cause there is a bluetooth fix patch for it to fix the call drop problem during a bluetooth call

Can't connect to data network

Currently a Rogers customer running Firefly 2.8 with Speedmod k13e and I've been having issues with the data network all day.
This morning, I wasn't able to send/receive txts/calls. Switched my SIM to my old phone (sony ericsson) and it worked fine, so I flashed to 2.2 and again it worked fine. So I flashed back to 2.8 with speedmod and now I can't connect to the data network. Anyone know what's up with my phone?

What modem does the speedmod kernel use? It could be that the modem they use isn't compatible with your area or possibly you need to change bands. Easy fix to flash another one. Find the modem that works best in your area, download it, install it via CWM.
I flashed to the new ROM and Kernel when they were both released and had no problems, it just randomly stopped sending txts, however I just got confirmation this morning that apparently they all sent today at around 3am so it looks like it's my service provider and not my phone..
Anyway, would the modems work in Canada on the Rogers network or do I have to have specific ones?

If you want something that works pretty much all the time, use JK4 - it's basic and very stable.
It's the one that comes with Team Phoenix's ROMs and I never had any problem with it.
If that's the one you're using, then go ahead and try another one but it can be a problem with Rogers too. I had that problem with my old phone but it wasn't a problem with the phone, it was Rogers.
I suggest that if you don't have JK4 atm and that you like your modem, to just continue using it for a few days and see if it happens again. If that's the case, then change to JK4 (Or any other modem if you're using JK4).
I checked the settings and it turns out I am using JK4, I would imagine it's the same one I've been using because I flashed to Firefly about 2-3 weeks after I got my phone (started out at version 1.0.5 or something).
So the problem would most likely be with Rogers? Considering I've called in 4 times about it, I'm sure they'd be willing to replace my phone if need be.

I'm guessing your phone or maybe sim card? but if you sim is new with your phone than I doubt that's what it is.
You can try a different modem for a few days and see how it goes before returning it. Also if you return it, don't forget to bring it to stock lol
Dude, watch the language and this should have been posted in the correct ROM sticky in Q&A.
That's correct, please post in the correct section.

[solved] - GB modem - loss of signal

Ever since I flashed GB I have not been able to get signal in my work (3 bars on stock froyo).
I used the stock modem in Valhalla.
Then I tried KF2....
Each time I go to mobile networks, it wont even recognize T-Mobile, only shows AT&T.
I went outside at work, searched again, and was able to register fine. I do not think it is an IMEI or hardware issue because of this.
I searched, but did not find much.... is this odd or common?
Anyone have suggestions for this?
Thanks.
I've had the AT&T thing happen before with some GB modems, but only if I am in an area with really really week signal (like inside my condo). I flashed the KD1 modem, and it does work a bit better.
With KD1, I can get 1, sometimes 2 bars if I put the phone in a certain spot on my dresser, and it won't jump to AT&T.
Nice, will try that one now. Coincidence that I had t-mo swap my sim card yesterday. I am on the phone with them now to see what they can do, if anything.
I'll give it a whirl soon.
Well, called T-Mo... they tried some things... no luck. Flashed a few modems... no luck.
Now, it is working. Maybe just an outage here.

LTE Problems in North Dallas?

Any other Skyrocket users having LTE problems in North Dallas as of yesterday? I've ALWAYS had LTE everywhere I've gone in the DFW area since they switched on LTE, but as of yesterday I don't have LTE, and have data dropouts altogether, at home. LTE still works a few miles away from my home.
I've flashed several Radios and done all of the fixes people recommend, so I'm fairly certain it's an AT&T problem, but AT&T told me they don't have any tower outages around me.
No problems here in Irving. I am on rooted stock UCLD2 leak.

I'm currently on UCLD2 Sky ICS 4.2d-4. I flashed back to UCLC4, then stock rooted 2.3.6 on UCLA3. All of them had the same results, no LTE, data dropping.
I'm in Frisco, it doesn't work at my home, but a few miles west, north, or south it works just fine.
No issues here either... I'm on some ROM... new to the skyrocket, tried 3 different ROMs, and so far hated them all. However, all work on LTE
Any advice on an ICS ROM that DOESN'T look like GB?
I've been having some issues with it in downtown Dallas lately. It will show lte but I get little or no connectivity.

It had to have been LTE outage up north of Dallas. It was spotty for 2 days, like I say in the OP, and then it magically started working again and I haven't had problems since.
I'm using Sean's Sky ICS 4.2d and it is GREAT. My battery life is amazing and it's stable.
As M0D said, I hear really good things about his NexusMod. I'm tempted to try it, but I feel comfy with Sky ICS right now. I like all of the AOSP and CM9 that NexusMod has.
Yea, I'm actually on NexusMod ICS and was very happy to see a ROM that looked the closest to ICS. And glad you posted here M0D. I've been a lurker for my other android devices for a while, but my low post count forbids me to ask questions on your ROM thread, so I hope yall don't mind if I ask them here.
1. Why does the lock button not actually lock the phone?
2. Similar to other ROMs, the AT&T check for the MobileAP... can you remove that?
3. I'm assuming I can use a special dial code to use Google Voice as my voicemail service instead of AT&T, but my previously rooted phones could do it no problem.
4. Not sure what your future plans are, but will you be including the "People" app and the raw ICS phone/dialer app anytime soon?
In general, I like the ROM except for all the AT&T stuff that still seems to be lingering. Of course, if I screwed something up, please let me know so I can get rid of these restrictions. Thanks!

[Q] New to SGS2 727R

Hi all.
I just finished picking up my sgs2lte. Really excited about it. I just finished rooting it and now I would like to install an ICS 4.0.4 rom.
My specs are:
SGH-I727R
Android 2.3.5
Baseband I727RUXKJ7
Kernel 2.6.35.11
Build GB.RUXKJ7
I am hoping someone can assist me with this.
What is the best baseband for rogers?
What is the biggest sdcard that I can buy for it? I heard that this device can now accept 64 class10 sdcards, is this true?
Thanks all,
Heeter
I don't think it matters much.
UCLE2 is the recommended modem for most ROMs (Most ROMS will state which modem is recommended), especially the AOSP based ones like CM9 or AOKP. For the most part they seem to be interchangeable.
I have used the UCLE2 and UCLF3 baseband modems with no issues (I believe UCLF3 is the RAT unlocked rogers modem..).
Right now I am using the latest AT&T modem UCLF5, with CyanogenMod 9 (7/02/2012 nightly) and it seems to work just fine.
Are you able to get 4G with your setup?
Thanks for your response, Rabidsmurf
Heeter
Yes, although the phone is somewhat misleading, at least in CM9
The icon will show 3G until in use when it switches to H, I assume this is for power savings or something. Download the speedtest.net app to confirm. On 4G i get around 8Mb/s down and 2.5 Mb/s up.
Additionaly what Rogers calls 4G is HSPA+, if you go to About Phone > Status under mobile network type it should say HSPAP:15 (That is HSPA+ 4G on rogers), conversely 3G is UMTS:3. My phone flips between the two as I mentioned when not in use or in use, could be a ROM specific thing.

Well, mine was saying 4G before the rooting with the factory settings,
But it says UMTS:3 on there now.
I will install CM9, maybe that will make the difference, I just installed the ATT UCLF5 radio, still 3G
Heeter
What ROM are you using?
If it's SKY ICS, in my experience it will always say 4G no matter what (Unless it's LTE maybe).
If you see UMTS:3 try to open an APP that has constant network demands, it might switch while you're looking at it in the status to HSPAP:15, sometimes it's tough to catch it as the phone seems to go idle as soon you go into the menus
I am also in Edmonton by the way.
Hi Rabidsmurf
Was mistakingly on the Chimera rom, but I just reformatted everything and now is using this SKY ICS 4.2F6 with the UXCLF3 radio, now I am getting the 4G signal
Thanks sooo much for helping me out.
Right on, cool, fellow Edmonton dude.
Heeter
No problem.
I was also going to suggest reviewing your APN settings if all else failed. Found a typo earlier with the APN that comes with CM9 rom (caused MMS to not work), guess that's why it's still an Alpha.

lol actually its at the level of an RC, but I digress
I'm using the I727RUXLF3 Baseband on AOKP Build 40 in the Edmonton area as well and it's running great. I see the same behaviour with the switching between 3G/H signal.
