I flashed the radio and I have the best signal in my home I've ever had. I'm on L and with AT&T.
I'm in Australia and I feel no difference between KTU84P and KTU84Q lol
Just flashed it. Restoring data. In India .
Where is the radio located so I can back it up before trying this? What folder is it in?
sent from my nexus 5 rocking L
Thanks for the radio img. Didn't really want to download the whole factory image.
Flash via fastboot and seems to be the same performance as the L radio.. but still early days and I've only checked out the reception from my office and no where else.. but from my office, the reception always seems so bad.

It would be better to go to System and see what Radio you have first, then go to the radio thread in the General section and download the radio you currently have (Thats your backup).

The radio occupies its own partition separate from the system.

If the radio is worse then just flash the radio you were using previously lol

My Nexus 5 prompts me to download the KTU84Q OTA now when I'm not even on the network the "fixes" are supposed to be for, and I'm on a custom ROM lol what the hell
Flashed and I dont notice any difference so far. Perhaps the modem may contribute to better battery life. Flashed all stock wiped all data, restored from scratch, rooted and updated all apps.

So is this technically a newer radio than L's?

IMO, it's not a new radio compared to Android L's! Android L's radio starts from "2.0.50.2.08" whereas this one's "2.0.50.1.17". I think google has just patched what was broken for some carriers using "2.0.50.1.16" as base and not android L's "2.0.50.2.08".
However, for people who were facing issues with 1.16 will surely face the issues on 2.08 (L) since the patch isn't included in it.
These radios do act in an unpredictable way all the time. For some KTU84P's radio works good while for other's android L's and so on.
I am using the L radio. Was having issue with the new 4.4.4 V2 update.

Strange, I have the XXKB3, but with GRI40...
I installed this nandroid backup provided here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=884093
The Nexus S is now stock and unrooted. But my baseband version is still: I9020XXKB3
What is the original baseband version for android version 2.3.1, build number GRH78 and how can I go back to it?
not sure why you want XXJK8.. XXKB3 has the best performance for most people but whatever here it is.

It is just that I wanted the nexus S to be completely stock. I dont know if I would receive OTA updates from google if I had baseband XXKB3? And I think the baseband XXKB3 is for the european version of Nexus S?

GRI54 is European. CM7 follows American.
So pretty much KB3 is a European radio, but they both work the same. Whatever is the best for you, use it. It's not a big deal.
This radio thing is getting confusing. I am in Asia which I think follows Europe more closely compared to US. But my Nexus is from bestbuy. I should be using the europe radio then?

I really don't think there's a difference between Europeans and Americans radio. The Nexus S works in predetermined frequencies for GSM (850/900/1800/1900) and HSPA (900/1700/2100) and that's it. So no matter where are you if your carrier support those frequencies the phone is gonna work. If it don't than you gonna have problems, probably you won't be able to use 3g per example.
Besides all this stuff is regulated and follows same patterns to ensure compatibility betweens networks so the same phone can work in several caries. That's the whole point about most phone are quad-band for GSM (more frequencies so it's more likely it will make calls) and tri-band for HSPA.

Ah, yeah, you're right, they do... I didn't think of that. I would try updating to the latest FW (3.33 - as you proposed). That'll update your radio which could effect your call quality/signal strength. There are also several build.prop edits you can try as well. I followed this thread a while back and had good results. Of course, if you're just in an area with awful cell coverage there's not too much you can do about it.... that said, if it were me, I'd update the radio and go from there...

Tryed reboot from bootloader and phone wont start at all but i still can get into bootloader . anyone else have this problem. Seems off because the phone did start up fine after i flash the firmware. Seem from other post that i needed to refresh my rom for camera to work so thats what i was going to do when this happen
Got it started back up after powering down from bootloader . it looks like i have to reflash recovery..anyone else had to do this?

This post is for developers ... you not going to get much help here
but i can tell you this ... you would not normally flash the whole firmware zip
you edit it in 7zip and remove the recovery.img and hboot if you don't want it updated
some also remove the boot.img it seems to break the camera. Just a FYI
I flashed this and for first time flashing firwmares I lost root and now instead of 3G icon its showing ATT 4g Icon lol!
Can anyone extract out the camera apk for me from this firmware so I can compare to previous. Thank you devs.

I think you need to be at least on an unlocked boot loader.
then you can fastboot flash it directly or install a custom recovery and flash a .zip version from there
