I'm looking to flash the new updated radio from 4.4.3
The quickest way is best.
I have Custom Recovery but for some reason when my Rom was updated to 4.4.3 the radio was not.
Looking for a reply soon please.
Go to 4.4.3 thread in general and search "radio". That's how I found it.

Custom ROMs usually have the modem stripped from the update to make the .zip smaller and also because you can flash them at will. (I have all modems on my internal just to switch modems when I go out of state.)
But as a friendly reminder, please think through how big 4.4.3 was and next time Google search what you're looking for, you wouldn't have been waiting for us to tell you this if you had. "4.4.3 Nexus 5 modem"
Here's the link if you can't find it however. All the best.

I apologize if these have ever been asked. I just barely have purchased the Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket and have been doing research on it but haven't found a direct answer to some questions so I am really hoping someone here will help me out.
1. When does the Official OTA of the ICS 4.0 get released for this phone or is it already released? (I am waiting for my battery to charge fully for 24 hours as I was told before turning it on and checking for updates)
2. If there is no Official OTA date of the ICS 4.0 in the next few weeks would you recommend I root the phone and put on a custom ROM?
3. If yes to question #2, which ROM? Is it in Beta or Alpha Mode?
4. If yes again to question 2 & no to question 3, where can I get this ROM? Could you please send me the URL to the download and instructions.
I would be FOREVER grateful to any and all that can give me advice on this new phone of mine as I am quite excited to give it a try but I noticed so many phones like this have the official OTA of ICS 4.0 and I would LOVE Ice Cream Sandwich if possible. THANKS so MUCH!

1) No one knows
2) Yes
3) You need to read the forums and quit posting
4) Read the forums and quit posting
5) Read some more
And then you can use roms such as seanz sky ICS, nexus mod ics, mhx, and so on.
I'm sorry, but there's no way that u did ANY research and are asking those questions. We have stickies that answer them all in pretty much the first op. Soo, i'll explain the point xcrazy is getting at. No one minds helping new users, but help yourself first. The search feature is your friend, as well as reading. No one here became an expert overnight, but by reading and researching, and asking valid questions. Not by being spoon fed

thats one question that he wont answer. we all have differing wants and needs when it comes to roms(and kernels). so its always recommended to try out a bunch of different roms, and stay with the one that fits your wants and needs. go through the android development and original development threads to check them out.

Hi,
I want to try the GPS fix solution by flashing the Android 4.4.1 radio on my Nexus 5.
GPS issue: https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=72311
But after searching the internet, I could not find it.
It is not even listed in the official Nexus 5 download image.
Anyone has it?
Please if you can share.
Thank you.
I probably do if you know it's code number i.e KRT??

I only found this http://forum.xda-developers.com/goo...t/modem-nexus-5-flashable-modems-efs-t2514095
On your RESOURCES link.
But, I don't know how to flash it. When I extracted the linked "modem" (is this the radio?), I got 2 files.
I am expecting to have a single .img radio image.
If you are interested in the GPS issue that I mentioned here is the link:
https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=72311
Basically, the GPS was working fine, perfect prior to 4.4.3 / 4.4.4 update.
A lot of people (if not all) fixed the issue by flashing the radio from 4.4.1.

They're flashable zips from recovery. Either flash the zip via custom recovery or the extract the image

Yes.
Tested and definitely the GPS is now MUCH BETTER!!
I was panicked at first because after flashed, the power button didn't work.
Rebooted, still didn't work. I cannot put the phone to sleep using the power button.
But, after awhile it fixed itself.

Lot of reasons, but :
You can't see what they're doing
Causes lot sof support threads from people thinking they bricked
You don't learn the essential methods and tools needed to get you out of trouble
Promotes a lack of knowledge and takes a toll on this forum
There is a "rant" about it linked in the same thread of my signature if you want to see what 99% of those of us posting here, regularly helping think.

You don't need the SDK to use fastboot. Fastboot is very easy to use. You can simply install fastboot using the 15 second installer. Please have a read of my "adb and fastboot. What is it?" thread.
I know you only went in my thread to find the radios, but do have a look at the other info a guide threads there. Your world will open up.
Wow ... indeed ... that's easy installation.
I have done the trouble in the past with installing the whole SDK, then maintaining it.
It was too much hassle.
Not anymore with the info from your signature.
Thanks! big thanks!

No problem. Any time.
We definitely like to help people who are willing to learn, so respect to you for that!
It's much easier to help someone in trouble who is configured ahead of time and understand than it is to help someone in trouble who doesn't understand basic commands - this is why we (almost everyone) recommend fastboot (and adb in some cases) over toolkits.
Any adb or fastboot questions, please feel free to ask them in that thread.

Good good! And yea, you'll find sometimes the power button does that straight after boot up. I think it's just not finished completely booting yet

Still not sure if this is to do with the 10 post rule or not.
Devs have a choice of allowing users under 10 posts to post in the dev threads now. But if they dont allow it, the user gets sent to q&a and the Dev PM's about the new thread.
I just wouldn't expect the thread to look like this. It's not clear that this is related to the 10 post rule. It reads as if a dev has turned on a general "q&a" thread instead.
Also if it is 10 post rule, is there a new thread for each under 10 poster trying to ask a question or will they all get sent to 1 this one thread?
Was talking about this earlier with @Toledo_JAB

Are you sure you are using the correct radio? If you just got it, chances are it might still be on a old version.
Flash the latest official version or the official Dev preview to get the latest boot loader and radio.
Also you can unlock and lock your boot loader in minutes
