Cant update stuck on UCKD5 HELP!

As the title states my phone is stuck with baseband version I997UCKD5. Everytime my phone trys to get a update it tells me that it cannot connect to ATT servers. My phone is rooted, is this why its not updating or do I have a defective phone. I have tried to find the answers for with no luck so if someone could please point me in the right direction that would be great.

this is typical att. it is not the phone. can you connect to odin? if you can then backup your apps with titanium backup then use odin to flash gtg's rooted ucke3 package, then backup the new rom with cwm (just good practice). if the apps are wiped then use titanium to reinstall them. it is not always a good idea to restore system data with titanium but i dont think there are significant system changes to prevent hat from working, id try it then if everything force closes id wipe user data in recovery and try it again without restoring system data.

I had the same problem even when i was UNrooted. I rooted my phone and updated to that Infused ROM. I then used the [ODIN][UCKE3] Return to stock download to return to stock and then I had the new update. Everything turned out fine, I had no problems afterwards. I then proceeded to UNroot the device and a day or 2 after that I recieved a new update but alas my phone STILL cannot connect to the servers.

yes, backup just in case. i dont know if gtg's package wipes but it probably does, actually id bet on it.
sometimes if the firmware is different restoring system data causes issues, what that means is you would lose your call logs and things. but if the app+system data restore causes issues you can just clear data in recovery mode and restore app+data rather than apps +all system data.
do you have contacts sync'd with google? att? if not export the contacts to a v-card on the sdcard. then import after the flash. but i recomend the gole contacts sync if you have want to set it up, sometimes simply setting it up on the phone doesnt work the first time. but once it is working it will restore contacts to any android phone you ever own and you can edit and merge contacts from the gmail website to keep it organized.

this is after the flash? did you have to log into the maket and install titanium backup from the market or were all the old apps still there? did you make a backup before the flash? is super user installed? busybox?

sorry i think i miss read something, i thought you meant "incase" hand you lose you apps to backup with titanium which would imply it would be before but now i see it says "if" which implies after the fact, sorry if my confussion caused you problems.
so you didn't do the backup before the flash? and all that apps are present but some force close? is this right? just for clerification

if the apps are still there you may just need to clear app data, this can be done in titanium or in setting> apps > manage apps> all go to each app individually and clear data. this will lose progress on games but not usually much else.
you may prefer to use titanium, to get titanium to work go to settings> apps > manage apps > 3rdparty/downloaded scroll down to titanium and clear data (this wont hurt the backups they are on the sd card)
if that doesnt work and you have access to the market then delete titanium and reinstall it.

im about to be away from my computer, if this doesnt get resolved contact me through pm and i will get back to it tonight. i will make every attempt to keep whatever apps you still have.

Thanks for the fast reply.
Just to clarify, Would i just select "Backup all user apps + System data' & Then when i'm done flashing select "Restore all user apps + System data" ?

Yes and no. not just settings. If a ROM is updated or u flash a different ROM, what u think gone happen if u restore that system stuff?

I´m using Titanium Backup Pro for all User Apps and Mybackup Root for everything except Apps.
+ Nandroidbackup with CWM

Back up only your User apps and apps data. Backing up your system settings may cause crashes or bugs when u flash a different ROM or a newer ROM and might actually affect the performance.

Dont back up system data then how to back up CONTACT and SMS by using Titanium back up? Or we should use other back up tool for Contact and Sms?

Back up everything. There is no reason not to back up everything. When you restore, just choose to restore all apps+data and you'll be fine (it always restores sms and contacts for me). Just don't restore system and it will work out, so that's why I say to back it up because it doesn't hurt

I used the superwipe before flashing ARHD rom from stock rom. After that I lost all my contacts and sms after that. I don't know what to use next time if i need to use the superwipe again so I wouldn't lose my contacts and sms etc. Can I use Titanium backup for this?

I use my backup pro, for everything. Most like titanium though. My backup pro does it all, in a cleaner interface. To each each his own though, as always. For contacts, u don't sync?

[Q] Seamless move to different ROM with help of Titanium (how to?)

OK, so i have one mod and now i want to migrate to another mod.
I have a paid Titanium backup app and i know how to restore apps and their data, but i have a few questions:
1. i have customized my Titanium by having filters and backup schedules, how do i transfer these things to new mod? Reinstalling this app will get these settings lost
2. on a new mod - destination mod, how do i properly restore all the apps? Do i set to recover missing apps and app data only?
3. is it possible to get all the widgets and shortcuts on screens like i had before?

Do you mean ROM not MOD?

Not using titanium, but an easy way to back up your apps, and restore them on a new rom
If you download ext4 recovery from the market.
Find it on your phone install recovery touch beta 8
Do a backup of your current rom, and then when you flash a new rom.
Go back to recovery, choose restore
advance restore
restore only data.
It will restore all your apps etc, but keep the new rom.

Thank you, but still, there should be some other way to do that, since i might not restore all the apps, but just some of them, and i really want to have Titanium installed with the custom settings i as already use

As I understand Titanium backs up its own settings to he sd card. At least that's what mine does, I don't remember if I had to enable that in the settings though

Yeah, you have to enable it in the tb settings, otherwise it won't backup your tb settings.

I wouldn't rely on Titanium specially if you have ICS. I would use nandroid or CWM backup and restore data. You will get your Titanium as is too. You can always delete unwanted apps but if you can't restore that a diffrent story.

Im not 100%, but i think so

I'm not an expert but had done a few restore now after trying ics n goin back to gb. So with titanium, u do a restore missing apps n data...u can still deselect the app u don't want to restore
After that, u can restore some system data (in green) individually which includes ur txt msg, account info. Some can mess things up..like I restore the bookmark from gb to ics, n it crash in ics when opening bookmark
But others seems ok. To get all ur icons organized like b4, I restored the desktop one....these shld all b done just for the data if u r given a choice.
That's kinda my experience n it seems to b working ok now after I restore back to gb

Anyone ever tried nandroid backup with gingerbread, then upgrading to ICS and then trying to restore the data partition?
I'm only asking because in this case (my case) most of the restored apps keep FC-ing. Everything else is restored perfectly - call lists, sms, mms, contacts list, favourite lists, backgrounds, sounds, ringtones... - you name it, it's there. So everything besides a lot of apps after restoring from nandroid works perfect even after upgrading from GB to ICS.
SO... any suggestions how to fix the apps FCs problem restoring from nandroid data partition? Thanx

Yes you can save titanium setting to ad card and it will restore by itself. Go to preference and tick first option auto synchronized TB setting. All done

Unfortunately, i did that but it didn't work. I have the setting ticked, but i installed ICS 4.0.3 ROM and now i have a fresh Titanium Backup without any settings i had

1. you could always use a secondary backup app like System Tuner Pro to backup your applications (particularly Titanium backup) then installing System Tuner Pro first then use it to Restore Titanium to the right working order.
2. I don't get this question.
3. Sadly, No

I don't think it is a good idea restoring GB data partition onto ICS. It is known to screw up the system/applications. Your applications need to be optimised so if you flashed it, the optimisation process may be skipped or cancelled out when you flash the data partition.

[Q] Flashing ROMs & Titanium Backup

Hey guys
I've recently rooted my 9023i Nexus S and am currently running Codename Android 1.4.0 with the included Kernel.
I did flash and test Matr1x kernel and one other which I can't remember the name of but in both cases I went ahead and reflashed the ROM to get the original kernel back as I felt the phone became unstable and sluggish after a while on the custom kernels.
I use Titanium Backup to backup and restore my apps and system settings which worked beautifully when I was just flashing the same ROM again, but I am wondering if I would like to try a different ROM (would be based on ICS 4.0.3 or 4.0.4) if I could restore my apps AND my system settings with Titanium Backup?
I have seen around here that I should only restore apps and not system settings when going to a different rom which I totally understand, but I would love to be able to keep my call logs, sms, contacts and especially Email (Exchange) settings between ROM flashes.
Is this possible?
Thanks!

I never really liked Titanium Backup, but you shouldn't have an issue, I believe. You should never lose your contacts as long as you are signed into Google. After you flash a new rom, sign back in and your contacts should be there. As for system settings, I have no idea. Wifi settings, etc shouldn't be a problem. Go ahead and try it. Thats what Clockwork Recovery and Titanium Backup are for. If it doesn't work, then restore back to what you had. Its best to learn from trial and error.

Thanks, I did do it like that the first couple of times when I flashed a rom, but I really like not having to redo the exchange settings and resync all my email and exchange contacts (all of my contacts come from exchange, none from Google) and also not having to resign into all of my services (Facebook etc.)
I guess I'll just do some tests and see how it goes

Restore apps. Leave the system stuff alone.

That's the answer I was expecting
But do you think it's ok to manually restore some settings, for example email settings, rather than doing a batch restore on all settings?
I see a backup in Titanium Backup for Email 4.1 and Exchange Services 4.1 which I assume would include all my emails and settings, right?

You could try restore data only on those. If you get a bunch of force closes .....
The emails are stored on the email server. You log into Gmail/Hotmail/work .. the emails will sync.
If you want to screw with it. Make a current Nandroid of your system. Restore what you want. Screw up ...restore Nandroid. Works... smile

Thanks guys
Tried it yesterday, didn't work
One other question... When restoring apps+data after a flash do you sign into Google and then restore or do you restore and then sign into Google?

Correct me if i'm wrong but with CNA you need to flash Gapps manually. If you don't flash it, you wont have market or anything, so you wont be able to sign in will you?
What i do is just leave google apps alone and flash my user apps. Then when you flash a rom, flash gaps, sign in, then restore user apps.
Yes it's a bit of a pain to reconfigure gmail etc, but most of the data is synced online so it shouldnt be too bad.

Backing up before reverting and updating to ICS

Before I odin my phone back to stock so I can update to ICS, I want to know if there is anyway to back up contacts, sms, call history, etc. before doing this. I use tibackup when I am flashing ROMS, but I don't know if I will be able to access these backups? And tibackup will not work without root, so I won't be able to use it anyways.
Sorry for the noobish nature, but is there any way to back up apps and system data before I odin back to stock?

back em up with titanium, a root solution is available. just make sure to copy the entire titaniumbackup folder to windows/linux/osx, flash the os, install titanium again, and copy everything from the old titanium folder to the new to restore

i use 'backup to gmail' for my sms and mms, it puts all your messages in your gmail in folders and will restore call log and sms, dont support restore of mms yet... i paid fo it and there is a free version too, i think it limits the number of back-up messages tho...
