I'm (obviously) a bit of a newb when it comes to android, and I was flashing back from cm7 to see how it was done. When I reinstalled GRJ22, everything was working fine. I then downloaded and flashed the OTA update to GRK39C (or so I thought). It turns out it was the update to GRK39F, which apparently is ATT or GPRS specific. My phone now thinks it's on ATT and is trying to use GPRS.
I'm on Telus in canada, and use HSPDA.
The phone was also showing baseband version I9020AXXKF1, it should be I9020AUCKD1.
I've tried restoring from a backup, flashing back to cm7 and to stock fw's, and even tried flashing the radio.
My phone still shows GPRS, and now baseband version shows I9020AXXKD1.
Is there any way to fix this? I hope someone here is knowledgeable about this...
That baseband is associated with the i9020t, or the t-mobile variant. The canadian nexus s is identical to the at&t version.
There is a sticky with all the roms. Use it and get the right rom installed
Unfortunately, the ROM I need seems to be one of the missing ones. Is there any way to backup the radio from my wife's (identical) phone and flash it to mine?
It looks like the file I need is 5282b5b3eb74.signed-sojua-ota-178324.5282b5b3.zip but I'm unable to locate a working link for the file. Can anyone tell me if this is correct and/or provide a live link?
Actually that particular one you want has broken tethering... This is a dump is the 2.3.4 with I9020AUCKD1 radio from my US import i9020a tested and working on SaskTel HSDPA+.

Thanks! I got it working by flashing the unsigned ROM in the sticky thread, and I'm running cyanogenmod 7.1 RC now. I'll keep the stock ROM on file just in case though...

Cool... I hope it works out well for you.
btw i got a rooted version of the stock 2.3.4 if you are interested as well.
So, for some reason flashing with your ROM set my phone to UMTS. Can someone refer me to a howto to backup a full ROM image from a phone, since my wife's is working fine and is on the right type of network.
After flashing the ROM Axlor_NexS_HDBlog not reading that it contained a radio and mine is a ATT Nexus s and after flashing the rom i no longer have service and i restored to an older ROM and still no service. I changed the radio back to the one i had before and still nothing. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.
Do you get emergency calls only or nothing at all? I would say dial *#*#4636#*#* and mess with your radio options to see if that helps, but I could be wrong

I have the exact same AT&T Nexus S and ran into the SAME problem last night. I am currently using it on Rogers. What you should do is flash your phone with 2.3.4 GTJ61 (NOT GRJ22 - for some reason it wouldn't catch radio connection).
You can find the full ROM in the following thread: (you MUST flash using Clockwork mod recovery bootloader)

Android 2.3.4/GTJ61/UCKE1 Radio/KA3 Bootloader
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?

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)
Recently updated to the CM10.1 build from July 2.
Haven't had 4G radio since, and most of the time I can't even connect to the mobile network.
I saw this error in logcat. Wandering if anyone knows what it means.
Code:
07-08 22:41:12.282: W/PackageManager(475): Unknown permission android.permission.ACCESS_4G_RADIO_DISABLE in package com.android.systemui
I updated from a previous CyanogenMOD. I am not S-OFF. So, I fastboot flashed the boot image after flashing the ROM in TWRP 2.5.5. Below are the step by step instructions to what I did.
Installed latest GApps and CM10.1 on phones memory
rebooted phone into TWRP 2.5.5
Flashed CM10.1 and GApps
rebooted into fastboot
ran:
Code:
fastboot flash boot cm10.1/boot.img
Any suggestions on what I can do?

different radio?
I saw this thread on different radios, but it reads that they only work for HBoot less than1.13. BTW, I'm still S-ON. I applied the T-Mobile OTA update.
UPDATE: I'm an idiot! Didn't realize the "Temporary" ones would work for CM10.1 with HBoot 2.15. Downloading and trying.
UPDATE AFTER FLASHING NEW RADIOS:
Nothing has changed. It'll flash H+ then quickly go back to 3G. But I'm still having difficulty in even connecting to google.com. I keep getting timeouts.
The update from July 15 fixed my issue.
Or maybe it was the fact that I wiped 3 times

Were you able to install a different radio OR is it that you no longer have issues with your radio after the update?

Even installing the new radios didn't help. The July 15 build had marginally better radio signal (i.e. I was able to stay on 3G most of the time) For some reason, I almost never got 4G.
I think it's more a problem in CM10.1. I've noticed a lot of people in the dev thread saying they either get intermittent service or no service at all.
I've since gone back to the stock sense ROM (removing all of HTC and T-Mobile's bloatware). Which is sad. I really liked CM10. But I was having a lot of problems. The wireless radio not working as actually one of the lesser problems. In the July 17 build Wi-Fi stopped working and I couldn't use a handsfree set (people couldn't hear me talk) and battery life went down to 10-12 hours
For a week or two now, I've been having a strange issue, if my WiFi is on I can't call or people who try to call me get the notice that I'm unreachable.. SMS works fine. If I disable WiFi and use mobile internet everything's fine.
Don't know what triggered this?!
I don't have the time to investigate properly, so I thought I'd throw it on XDA..
I have flashed different Radios and a few 4.4.4 AOSP Roms, no luck..

I would flash the factory image and see if you still have the problem. If you do it's probably a hardware issue and I'd rma the device

when you receive this problem just go menu about and scroll down , you will see KTU84P or TU84M or other , so you need just to flash this one as same version i men if you cell KTU84P so use same to Radio file
and for wipe device , you do it or no , no problem because on my shop i reveice allot of phones so no have time to backup i just flash radio to preserve information for customer and 60% working and network 3G/LTE fixed if not fixed so you need to pass to second step (full flash )
for full flash i use : Factory Images "hammerhead" for Nexus 5 (GSM/LTE) from thsi site : https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images
ask me any time if you still need help

Finally!
I managed to fix it.. W00t!!
I think I get it now, I tried reflashing factory image, KTU84P latest for me (I'm in Belgium), but that didn't work, then I thought about wat the stock rom was when it was shipped, I guessed it was the KOT49H build, so I kept the system image from KTU84P and flashed the radio image from the KOT49H build and voila! it worked.. So I think you have to flash the radio that the cellphone was originally shipped with..
Anywayzz I'll keep you posted how things end up when I flash other roms again.
Thanks again for the advice hitibiti !!

**BUMP**
So i've been f****** around some more and found out that I only experience the no calling during wifi bug using a modem version radio-hammerhead-m8974a-2.0.XX.X.XX I can always fix it again by flashing a previous version starting with 1.0.XX.X.XX this is all on stock rom on every android version. Running LRX21O now with radio 1.0.25.0.23
Still think this is some weird sh** and why only handfull of people have this?
So simply said: from radio v2 upwards (which came with 4.4.3 update) when wifi is enabled I can't make calls and people can't call me..
