Best radio/baseband for California? My internet is super slow. - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

My Galaxy Nexus is pretty much useless right now when not on wifi. I'm not being throttled because I just started my new billing cycle so I'm wondering what baseband/radio works best for people in California.
I'm using the MoDaCo Rom Ir11 and the 3.0.8 GLaDOS v1.15 kernel.

I am in Dallas, on T-Mobile and I have always used the European radios. Right now the latest is XXLA2.
Literally the exact same thread in general already.

Download the radio it and experiment for yourself. His results will not reflect the same results for you because you two are in different areas around the world.

Sprint signal issues

Have the signal issues been fixed?
That's a very vague question. I have no signal issues with my Toroplus on Sprint.

New baseband 4.2 any difference?

Anyone notice a difference with new baseband? Not sure if I need to flash it or not. I'm running 4.2 just didn't change bb.

I will do so real life testing tomorrow and I will report back.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
I've noticed a huge difference in signal strength. With the old baseband I used to get 2 bars around home and the office.
I switched to DVLF1 from the i9250T for 850Mhz networks and got a slight boost.
But with the 4.2 one I've got full reception at home and office. Also noticed an increase in voice quality.

Thanks guys. I haven't changed baseband since I got my nexus. With my g2x there were always problems when changing.

Baseband is only for maguro correct?
I believe so.

With the new baseband I am getting an additional two bars where I never had any. Seems to be a lot more power efficient as well.

My Gnex used to not be able to pick up any signal in the basement, now it at least keeps one bar in the worst scenario.

I flashed last night. So far it seems to be doing great. Don't know that my signal is any stronger but it didn't seem to hurt anything.

Best response ever
When a Galaxy Nexus updates OTA from 4.1.2 to 4.2, this baseband update is also included, right?
Nuno
Is the new baseband part of the 4.2 OTA we are starting to receive or is it something that has to be flashed separately ?
If not within OTA, is it not official? How are average users ment to benefit from the improvements ?
thanks
Of course it is part of the OTA. Chill out.
Signal strength on par with all recent basebands.
One huge difference: I keep getting 10 to 13 mbit/s download with XXLH1, whereas I barely got past 5mbit/s on all previous basebands.
