[Q] baseband question - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

hello, i just got my gsm GNex for tmobile today (ordered from expansys)
and i installed AOKP B29
i noticed that i'm dropping signals time to time because of the baseband XXKK1, i think.
if i'm correct, xx is for the Europe.
I live in east coast of USA with tmobile.
i've looked around, and i found i have couple choices for basebands in USA.
UGKK7
UGKL1
UGLA4
i might missing one or two more.
i was wondering which baseband would be the best choice for me in east coast of USA with tmobile network?
i'm very new to these, please help!!

yes XXKK1 is causing the drops. that radio doesnt function well with 4.0.2+ ROMs.
the BEST radio is to try them all and see what gives you the best performance.
start from the newest to the oldest
my suggestions are to start from: UGLC1, XXLA2, UGLA4
there are many threads of this....

check out the baseband thread in the general setion, theres lots of post there with what you are looking for.

thx for the reply guys.
one more question.

[Q] How to know which radio is best for my location

Hi there
I have recently flashed a stock 4.0.2 radio, but it seems like im having a lot of problems with it. How to know what radio version i had before i flashed it ? How to know what radio is best for my location ?
Sorry for spamming q&a but i really need this answer
Thanks folx in advance
I don't know how you'd specifically find the radio you did have if you haven't made a note of it. You can find the radio prefixes here, but there isn't one for Serbia.
If you look at this thread you'll find a list in post 2 of all the radios, there is no way to find out which one will specifically work better for you, there is no science to it, you'll just have to flash and test them out. Or find a friend with the same device that has a radio that works well in your area.
Hope this helps.
Thanks mate ! I bought my phone in Hungary, in a mobile shop (no operator or smt).. So i assume that i had
XX---> Austria, Belgium, France, Germany, Hungary, United Kingdom
XW---> Austria, Belgium, France, Germany, Hungary, Italy, Nordic, Spain, United Kingdom

The stock yakju 4.0.1 radio was XXKK1
Can i flash 4.0.1 radio with 4.0.2 rom ?
You can but it won't be as good as with the 4.0.2 one

Yes... Radios are interchangeable. As one of the previous posters mentioned... Just flash radios until you find one that works best or YOU like...

[Q] Best Radio(s) for SEA

I'm from Indonesia and bought my GN several months ago. It was included with the XXKK6 radio (the default for Europe, right?).
Are there any SEAans there (or anyone with experience) using an alternative radio that's suitable for Indonesia? I tried the newest Europe baseband (XXLA2), but ended up having no reception.
Thanks in advance.

If XXKK6 worked then XXLA2 will work, just reboot to try and get signal.
If it came with an XX radio then what you should probably use is XX radios.
You can try other ones if you want to without doing any harm.
Maybe try this. I have seen it help others in similar situations...

[Q] Radio Basebands Question

I'm using a GNex for a while, but i'm still confused about radio basebands.
I live in Turkey, some ROM's like MiNCO there is a link for radio basebands. I don't know what I'm doing about it. I wanna update my baseband but i'm afraid bricking.
Any advice or help needed, thank you.
You can flash any GSM radio you want. Different radios work for different people.

[Q] China Baseband needed

Hey guys,
I'm currently in china and I need a chinese (China Mobile) baseband for my gnex (GSM). It should be region code ZC or ZS and for 4.1.2 JB. If someone could extract or point me to a link, it would be greatly appreciated. The CWM one, thanks!
P.S I checked the big stickyed "radio dumps" thread, but couldn't find any.
No such radios.
Is it because the gnex never made the market in china? What radio do you recommend using best? Thanks
No idea.
Try out the radios in the radio thread, see which one works for you.
Just wondering if any new china/hong kong gsm nexus users have any input on the basebands they use? and a questions about basebands itself, would any baseband technically work just that different baseband will yield different signal strengths?

OTA Updates After Changing Radios
Hey guys, so I'm kind of noob at this but I do have some experience and is just wondering about a few things.
So i flashed the GPE version last night only to find that it booted correctly and everything but just could not find my local mobile network (Starhub I live in Singapore). So I went on over to do some research and I found this thread and decided to try it out, and as I have bought the phone in Taiwan, I went ahead and downloaded the Taiwan radio.img, replaced it with the one inside the original non rooted RUU and flashed it onto my phone again. This time I could get signal and everything. So here's my question, if I were to get the Lollipop OTA update from Google, will it mess up my radios again? And if it does mess up my radios, what can I do to fix it back? And will it even let me install the new OTA update?
which is best?
I am using an international version of htc one m8 and i flashed the att radio 1.19 getting decent signal but wondering if the dev/att 1.16 radio would be a better option. I have s-off and superCID and i am using the LiquidSmooth ROM but other than that i don't know what to add that would help new to the ROM game but would like to achieve optimum signal with my phone. Also if it helps i am using an ATT sim card for my carrier and i am in the US if that helps best determine radio for the optimum signal strength then cool thanks for any help and comments, to my most likely silly question.
Trying to put a radio back on my phone and got to the part where i enter this command dd if=/storage/sdcard0/radio.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p20 it comes up with this error 1|[email protected]_m8:/ $ dd if=/storage/sdcard0/radio.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p20

Dropbox 404
Hi I'm trying to download Radio for BS_US002, however it keeps giving me Dropbox404.
Could you please fix the link? Or it's just my problem?
The radio that gets flashed with graffixnyc's 2.12.1700.1 RUU is 1.14, but I've noticed a few people mentioned the latest as bring 1.21. My question is probably stupid, but who has used that RUU with a different radio then what it came with on the AT&T network ?

HTC One M8 WWE
Hi I have HTC One M8 WWE, base band 1.22.21331147a1.29g_20.67.4196.01_f, rooted device but I can't S-off and SuperCID, because firewater doesn't work and Sunshine can't hack my device. So I want to flash to Verizón GSM Radio, because it's support WCDMA 850/900/1900/2100 MHz and LTE 700/AWS. I need it for LTE in Peru.
What I can do?
Radio for TMobile on GPE
I rooted my AT&T HTC One M8 and installed GPE Lollipop. With AT&T radio I was getting 2G and 3G at my place, with GPE I lost all of that and I do not have any TMobile signal.
I am thinking about flashing the radio with a TMobile Radio ROM to get at least some signal back.
I am S-Off, Rooted, and I have GPE CID/MID, fastboot says the software version is Official (not tampered).
Anybody with any experience with this path? I have a Note 4 also and it sees 4G signal here. Note 4 has all the LTE bands supported and TMobile mostly uses band 12 (700MHz-A) here, along with Band 2 and 4.
What are my chances of getting the TMo signal back on HTC?
I see a bunch of questions but no answer but here's my go at it...
Can someone tell me which radio is for AT&T 4.4.3 and if it's safe to flash on 4.4.4?
Radios/WiFi Q's and Issues
Hey guys, long time lurker first time poster. Just wanted to say, thanks a million times. The posts here have helped me through a lot of nasty situations with phones. Here is my current issue:
I have an ATT version M8 (please excuse if I don't know correct terminology for everything).
I am S-Off and rooted. I was running the latest ViperRom with no issues. WiFi and 4gLTE worked, though LTE was spotty. I just rooted to the latest SkyDragon 5.0 release however and now I have lost WiFi and LTE (just shows 4g).
Does anyone have any suggestions for how to correct this issue? I have unlimited data but I would still like the best LTE signal possible and the option to use WiFi.
Thank you all, in advance.

Did you do a wipe of user data before switching ROMs, or did you "dirty flash"?
I'm running Dev Edition 4.16.1540 firmware, and the SkyDragon Sense 7 ROM, and its running flawlessly on AT&T.

I did the full wipe. I think most of my issues come from the fact I am starting on an ATT phone and loading it with TMo software. I read some posts about just downloading new radios, but I am not sure if that would work. It may fix my LTE but wouldn't effect my WiFi issues I wouldn't think.
For the record, before this, I settled on the Venom rom because it was the only one that worked with both WiFi and LTE. I can't track down why that is though.

Flash the WWE version of SkyDragon Sense 7, not the T-Mobile. WWE version is working perfectly for me.
