Hello, I upgraded my nexus s to 2.3.3 and the new radio xkb1, I also tried xkb3 but I get no service still. I even changed apn settings etc.. nothing works!
I tried modaco rom (2.3.3) and stock rom 2.3.3.
WHen I put it in airplane mode, my simcard network comes up (GiffGaff UK) but cannot do anything as it says phone is in airplane mode.
What shall I do? I think it is the radio but I done know how to downgrade the radio to 2.3.1 radio?
did it work before you Flashed the radio for unknown reason?
i'll suggest a complete wipe of the phone and restore back to a stock ROM or stock nandroid backup and see if it works
the thing is that I cant find an 2.3.1 radio?
Happened to me just flashed the radio back, you can get the radio.img:

Hi all,
A week ago I bought a brand new Desire S and installed latest CM 7.1 stable following the guide on cyanogemod Desire S Wiki using revolutionary 0.4pre4. Everything was smooth and nice, I flashed ROM and GAPPS and my phone is working absolutely perfectly... but there is one little problem...
I am using Desire to fetch my mails from 2 mailservers using IMAP every 30 mins. But when the phone is switching between network modes i.e. HSDPA -> EDGE or EDGE -> GSM or any other way, I am disconnected from operator network for about 10 seconds until the network mode changes and everything is fine after that, until there is another network mode switch.
This happens for me about 10 times a day, so my phone sometimes appears that It is turned off for people who want to call me. Immediately after connecting to network I get a missed call SMS from my operator.
Interesting thing is, that when I disable email fetching, disable background data transfer and disable network data, the phone works fine without "blackouts".
Can someone help me with this problem? Maybe a radio issue?
Some more info:
ROM: Cyanogenmod 7.1.0 Desire S
Recovery: Revolutionary CWM v4.0.1.4
HBOOT: 6.98.1002
Kernel: 2.6.35.14-cyanogenmod+ [email protected] #1
Radio: 20.28I.30.085AU_3805.06.02.03_M
There is a newer radio-file online.
Maybe it's solving your problem.
I'm using MIUI and never had such problems, but i'm interested in flashing CM, so please report if the problem is gone by flashing newer radio!
Which radio version are you using?
Today I am testing 2G only switch so I am on EDGE data only.
Flashing radios is safe......, but a bad radio flash will instantly brick your phone.
You are using 1.47.401.4 radio, try updating to the 2.10.401.5 one.
Thanks for reply.
Shoud I flash something else with the radio?
I have 20.4801.30.0822U_3822.10.08.04 downloaded from cmw.22aaf3.com
Another I have is ftom OTA update zip file OTA_Saga_S_HTC_Europe_2.10.401.8-1.47.401.4_release_225210fmxlt12djw1sr7y5.zip where is one radio.img in formware.zip file too - version unknown
So Which one to flash?
and if so, which method should I use to flash radio? The Android SDK one or the ZIP + Bootloader one?

Both will work, i'm using method by using bootloader normaly
Strangely I had the same issues as you on Endymion.
Then I updated radio to the latest.
It worked well.
Then I went to CM7. It was fine for a while, but now I'm losing signal with no 3G bars and its not switching automatically to 2G like it should when It has no 3G signal!
EDIT:
After really reading your post, I realise my issue is no way like yours! Yours seems really bad. Update your radio.

Sent from my HTC Desire S
So, here we go with the results
I flashed 20.4801.30.0822U_3822.10.08.04, md5sum checked OK, update sucess, but phone with no signal...
I flashed 20.48.30.0822U_3822.09.08.20, md5sum checked OK, update sucess, but phone with no signal again...
I flashed 20.28I.30.085AU_3805.06.02.03 back, md5sum checked OK, update sucess, but phone with no signal again...
... what now ... ?
After each flash wiped cache and Dalvik...
in your telephone-info there is shown the new radio after every flash?
do you have removed the batterycover, because there is integrated the antenna of your device!

No, the cover is at its place where it should be. Somehow I did the trick and I am back online with 20.28I.30.085AU_3805.06.02.03 on 2G only for now.
I read somwhere in the forum that ENG HBOOT is required for new radios... Are you sure I dont need to flash eng hboot it before new radio ??

in your area 3g is actually available?
may it helps to go outside, to find your net for the first time!
did you set an accesspoint for 3g?
may you have to set automatic settings, rather than 3g/2g-only?!

using same hboot as you, never had problems on flashing radio-files!
yes, in my area there is 3g, when I turn off 2g only switch there is a problem described in my first post, so i am on 2g for now just to keep phone connected to network.
main problem is when i am driving and the phone is switching network modes.
so I give 20.4801.30.0822U_3822.10.08.04 today another chance, try to flash if again.
but i am woried about stucking on HTC logo after flash :-( and brick it.

i already had the problem for several times, and i also pulled out the battery (you shouldn't do that)!
only had to boot into bootloader, start recovery, wipe all partitions, flash rom and was having fun again with my device
this thread could help you, if really stuck on HTC logo
For your real problem on loosing the signal, did you ever tried out using actual stock rom, or another custom one like MIUI?
i used MIUI from 2010-08 till yesterday, now trying out CM7.1 for some days
I have the same or a very similar problem. I have the stock rom.
I already had 3 different desire s motherboard's and 2 different display's.
The first Desire S i had, with android 2.3.3, had a excellent signal. Due some problems i had, the phone bricked and had to go to HTC to repair.
HTC replaced the motherboard and update the version of the android to 2.3.5 and ever since the signal caption, the signal switch was working very bad.
The phone went to a second repair because of this, new phone, and again with android 2.3.5. The problems persisted.
I also tested with different SIM cards, from different mobile operators.
So, my conclusion is either android 2.3.5 or this new versions of Desire S have problems with signal caption and signal switch.
So as you, i need some help with this issue!

But when I reboot to recovery it will flash the radio again I think.
i hate stock roms, and dont like MIUI design That is why I am using Cyanogen
Anyway if I use 2G only switch, the phone is stable as rock both calls and data transfer.
EDIT: OK, flashed 20.4801.30.0822U_3822.10.08.04 sucessfully, signal OK, I will see what happens whet metwork mode switches
@Green Hawk:
give us more information about your device please, which radio you're using? Did they flash actual radion also?
@MyroLM:
report if the problem is still there or it's gone with flashing the rom
I am still testing new radio, but looks good Give me some days let you know...
Hi All,
I have a similar problem with the latest CM7.1 nightly builds (Reaper, jorgen2009). I never saw this with older CM7.1 versions, e.g. Nexx version, ICS, MIUI oder Endymion.
I have WLAN on and leave my house. Phone switches to 2G/3G..., so far so good. When I return home, The WLan sign in the status bar appears again, everything seems to be fine, but I have no connection. I get no data via WLan until I swicth WLan off and on again.
Radio is the latest from 2.10.401.5.
Best Regards
Wrapp
Had similar problems, upgrading to the latest radio helped. I got stuck on the HTC screen and I went through flashing RUU's and unlocking bootloaders back and forth... when the only thing that needs to be done is to wipe the cache.
Learned a lot about bootloaders though. But my warranty got void because i did the htcdev unlock... (Sorry for OT)
Ok so the problem i am having is i am unable to get wifi to work without the phone saying error next to wifi. My One S has the lastest radio and HBOOT 1.06. So i understand that i do not need to flash the boot.img from fastboot, but i still do to make sure that it is flashing ok. That does not fix the problem. I have even used the stock T-MO nanodroid to go back to stock rom and i still flash the boot.img file from fastboot still not wifi. Everything on the phone works fine but wifi. After the phone boots up wifi is already on and it does scan and see networks. When i try to connect to one it doesn't connect, if i toggle wifi off and turn it back on again it gives me a error when turning wifi on. Only thing i am wondering is, i do not have a SIM CARD in the phone right now since i do not have a micro sim right now. Does the phone need a SIM CARD in it for wifi to work. I spent 3 hours last night flashing different roms and boot.imgs trying to get wifi to work. All with errors still. Anything ideas right now would be great.
edit: forgot to add when i flash the boot.img in fastboot i always get a finished with no errors as if the boot.img is flashing fine.
wifi problem
I just pulled my sim from my One s and found i had no problem with the wifi connection. What kind of error is it, do you have any code?
No code. If I do a full wipe the wifi scans for a network sees them but does not connect. Then it will turn off on its own and just say error next to the on and off button. It does it with every rom and kernel combo I have tried. Even going to back to the full stock rom it does it. I know the kernel is flashing since it shows the right kernel under about.

i've encountered the same issue, but only when i flashed an overclocked kernel. and when i flashed the kernel back the error went away. have you tried unrooting?
I was looking for a full stock unrooted rom and but couldn't find anything other then a nanodroid of stock rooted. I was thinking of just flashing the ruu and seeing if that fixes it. Not sure at this point because I have tried every kernel and rom all which do not work so far. I have also formated everything thinking maybe something was left behind no go as well. I know wifi works since I used the phone for a few days before I Dev unlocked it and rooted it. I also setup the phone on wifi with no sim card when I pulled it out of the box at the start. Something happen after the unlock and rooting part. Could updating the hboot help at all.

I fixed it. I flashed the TMO 1.84 RUU and wifi is working again. It updated the HBOOT to 1.09 and everything is stock with working wifi. I am starting all over to see if i can get it working with a rom as well now.
I searched around and couldn't find a definitive answer. The problem I'm having is connecting to wifi at all.
After getting a phone replacement, I unlocked the bootloader, flashed CWM recovery, rooted, flashed CM 10 nightly 09/29 and GApps but when I booted, I could not connect to wifi at all...I can't even turn on wifi because the toggle is greyed out. I have tried reflashing several times and even tried a different rom. but still no luck. Anyone else have this problem or know how I can fix it? I rely heavily on wifi because of ****ty data in my dorm. Any help would be much appreciated!

Hello,
What was the version of software on you phone before rooting, was it a T-Mobile phone? The newest version for T-Mobile has created is issues for roms that aren't the same version.

Yep, just found out that was the issue. kinda sucks because I'd rather have jelly bean! Oh well guess I'll deal with no wifi till a fix comes out.
why does the Ruu not work anymore i want to take my phone back to where the wifi works..... i have a cwm backup from before the update but that did not even fix the problem
____EDIT____
Well i got the wifi back. ( and the OTA update ? again )
Relocked the phone boot loader
I opened the RUU
took the Rom.zip from the folder.
took the stock recovery img
flashed the stock recovery img
start the phone back up
downloaded the update again. ( 4.0.4 )
did all the waiting etc
phone powers down reboots applies the updates to it self.
powers back up updating completed
WIFI WORKING.
go to try and do the ruu.exe again but no it says error 140( i think ) wrong bootloader version.
This update changes the bootloader to version 1.14___ So now the phone is non tamperd and says relocked so back to stock ( YAY )(((for now))))( i think lol )
Most importantly the Wifi is working.
If anyone wants i can take and give the files from the RUU ( not the whole zip but what ever img's you want from it ) Just send me a PM i will mail it to ya.

So did you use the 1.84 ruu? And you did this after applying the tmobile ota?
Hi,
i tried to flash cm 10.2 on my photon Q today.
I had the latest official rom working for half a year but i was missing some features i couldnt get with stock.
Anyway its a simcard modded unit i use in germany i was running stock jellybean (rooted, motochopper method) until today.
First i unlocked the boatloader, flashed latest open recovery and then flashed CM10.2 latest nightly (GSM) + gapps, after that i did a factory reset with open recovery.
After i configured the new firmware i noticed that i had no gsm, it didnt even ask for the pin of my locked card. I tried to switch from CDMA to GSM but with no effect. I also tried several reboots but i couldnt change the mobile network or get gsm to work.
I then tried to flash the latest cm snapshot but it doesnt work as well, the only difference is that the phone service always crashes when i try to change the network method.
Doesn anyone else have a idea? The thing is currently useless to me...
Thanks in advance.

i looked at the build.prop and those options except:
ro.telephony.default_network=3
dont appear in the file...
Also this talks about GSM Data problem, i cant even do phonecalls/sms, its not even asking for my sim code..
I then tried to flash back to stock but now RSD Lite 6.1.5 wont show my device... (all drivers installed).
Im really getting frustrated.
EDIT:
ok tried another PC with Win7 (mine runs 8.1) and now RSD Lite seems to work
Update: Now back to stock... GSM Works fine after i activated it... i now try to reflash cm10.2 and see what happens
Ok its working now
everything out of the box...
i dont know what went wrong the first time cause i did exactly the same as far as i know...
