Develop Bugs

For those that have the samsung build, did you get the 4.0.2 update?

Still haven't got mine. I have the samsung build (forgot what the code is yakjuw?)
Anyways, I really hope we get the updates everyone else is getting because I'm not going to flash to stock google build just to get updates.

I have the samsungbuild (yakjuxw) and i haven't got it yet (norway)

Well I sure hope we get it. That was one of my worries when an XDA forum member first found out there were different builds. Hope we still get updates quickly like the google ones.

I haven't gotten it yet on my yakjuux.

Is 402 for GSM or LTE? I thought it was LTE only.

We will get it, but those sent from Google will get it everything from 1 day to 1-2 weeks before us i've heard.
They are planing to release 4.0.3 soon too, so we should get 4.0.2 maybe tomorrow if we are luckey.

Both. But the OTA for GSM started happening today and LTE had the 4.0.2 OTA happening yesterday.
The stock image files were released for both (4.0.2) yesterday.

Anyone yet?

Also, does anyone know if Google responded about this? We have a nexus...we should get updates fast and first like everyone else. Ridiculous.

Article posted on Android Central about the app the person developed. The "update" at the bottom of the article sheds some light.

My GSM Gnex came with Samsung build and I didn't get v4.0.2 since yesterday. That's why I flashed to yakju. Loving it so far!

@ajftl There's this nice little app in the market called GN Official Update Checker that tells you your build and if it's updated directly by Google.

Excellent. I'm on 3uk and for the first time since getting the g-nex 2 weeks ago i'm finally getting full bar reception at home on hspa. Rooted and using Paul's latest rom and Franco's latest kernel.

THANK YOU!
Yet another KL1 comes up... Sweet!
I flashed the Korean KL1 yesterday (because Wind Mobile users were having major roaming issues with the north american KL1) & Battery life, Battery Readings, Signal & network speed is much better. Best of all no roaming issues.
Here's a link to that 1 as well http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1439217
Will try this 1 later

Thanks! So far so good. Not intensively tested yet, but reception seems to have improved, here in the Netherlands. I was having some issues with that. I was using the xxkk6 radio.

Can't really see any difference with regards to signal strength/performance.
But I guess we'll see if it has any effect on battery in a couple of days.

Thanks a lot for the radio, it improved both wifi and network reception for me compared to the xxkk6 radio. Cheers!

Will this baseband most likely be the one included in stock 4.0.3 or do we think something 'newer' will be included with that update?
Im on 850MHz Telstra Next-G using XXKK6 (AUS2 radio network)... might have to flash and test it out.

Let me know how you go... currently still on the stock Telstra radio but haven't seen much in the way of comparisons.

I live in Asia, for me krkl01 tad better than xxkl01, signal strength and download speed wise

I agree the UGLA4 is newer but which frequency does it work better?
People need to understand that a baseband can work better or not depending on their frequencies...

In Samsung phones, radio/baseband are related with battery life too?

Well newer radios aren't necessarily better. There are so many factors and variables that will affect a radio's performance. Results will always vary based on their location, carrier, etc. There are just way too many variables.
In the end, it's all about the user's personal experiences if its better or not.
As far as frequencies.. not even going to go into the technology part of that because it's not worth debating over. I was just simply stating that this is a older radio and comes from a last year build to reduce the placebo effect of... "oh it's better!" simply because it was posted today but was a revision radio of yesterday. In actuality, this radio probably matches the XXKL1/UGKL1 radios but optimized more for Brazilians.

the radio signal receiving is the one that affects battery life. Getting a good radio driver is the only way to improve it.

Testing on my Galaxy Nexus with Vivo, until now i did not notice any diference

Tried this one in Oslo, Norway.
Gettings lots of Edge-connection and speeds around 5/2 when I get a decent HSDPA lock.
I'll revert to back to latest docomo radio for now.

Just flashed this baseband, i live in Argentina, hope this work well because i was having some problems with getting good connection

If I flash this radio baseband my phone will be able to update by Google OTA?

Best radio for GSM GN?

Hi, I'm confused on what radio I should use with my GSM GN, I'm about to install LS 1.35, however I will also need a new 4.0.4 radio, to get the best signal and battery life, so what radio are you guys running?

As far as 4.0.4 radios go you have two choices: UGLC1 and XXLA2.
I'm on LC1 personally, haven't felt the need to test other BB's since. There are often too many variables to declare a BB as a clear winner.

Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium

Since you're located in Denmark, I suggest you use the XXLA2 radio. XX radios are apparently best suited for Europeans, while UG radios (like UGLC1) are best suited for the United States and Canada.

It doesn't matter. This phone is pentaband. Phones being sold on the play store are shipping out to American see with xxla02. I'm American and I prefer xx radios over ug. You just have to try them and see which one is better for you.

UGCL1 i have gotten better signal strength, better data speeds, no signal disconnect and never lost google sync. On XXLA2 I had some issues with speeds and signal. I recommend UGCL1 but test yourself and see a lot of people like the XXLA2 for whatever reason.
p.s. UGCL1 is the newest

Here's a link for the UGCL1 radio in case you can't find it. Kinda buried in a bunch of posts.

Best radio is to use them all starting with the latest one and determine the one best for YOU. One radio good for one person is not the same for you because you two live on different parts of the world + different carriers.

Thanks for this thread, guys. Very informative.

Use LAX2 as that works best. And you get better battery life compared to the previous releases

[Q] Different Radio and Roms...can they coexist?

Hi all,
Ok so my second GNex is in (White this time) and I wanted to try something different. Im right not on AOKP Build 40 which is a 4.04 ROM but I also am running a radio for 4.02 based roms (XXKK6). I've noticed I get substantially better signal than the newer radios that are out for it so I decided to keep it. My question is...is there any substantial harm im looking at by mixing an incorrect ROM and Radio this far apart? I know some of you have mixed it around but this radio is a couple versions old. Thanks in advance.

As long as the ril matches the radio you are fine. The latest aokp and cm9 builds use the ril for krlb1 radio. The easiest way to check is with the getril app off the play store.
This app will allow you to check if radio and ril match and download the correct ril if you are set on keeping your current radio.
First few days with the phone I had wicked signal drops until someone put me onto this app, now my signal is perfect.
Sent from my Cyanogenmodded GNex

Well given that I've used a north american radio and RIL on my phone I'd say you're good. The radio and RIL doesn't even have to match as some RILs (believe it or not) work better than the one suggested.

Ok you are right. I must be imagining that my data doesn't drop randomly now my radio and ril match. Maybe it's because I'm holding my phone differently now.

Dude no need to get upset. Different phones behave differently. No one said you were wrong. If it works for you great but my nexus didn't have a matching RIL and baseband either and was fine. The only data drops I had were with newer radios.

In addition, some of us have never had data drops, whether the RIL was matched to the radio or not.
I've tried a few different radios, and a few different RILs (matched and not matched), and I have not noticed any perceivable difference in reception/latency/throughput.

Look dude, the best thing is to just test different radios and RILs. Asking here what mix is best won't help you the least as the mix that work for someone might not work for you, at all.
I found that it didn't help avoiding data drops by running a 4.0.3 radio and RIL (for me) while running AOKP. I don't know whether my drops are because of AOKP, my carrier, a certain radio or simply a mix of all.

I wonder what actually differentiates all radios out there for the Galaxy Nexus, since most seem alike. I could run a UGLC1 radio in Europe as perfect as I could run a Europe radio.

That is indeed the $1 million question...
We need someone to disassemble the radios... if it is even possible.

Well really when it boils down to it they are all for the same frequencies so they cannot be TOO different..
