What's this shait? - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

After you install a new kernel in 4.0.4 you only get reception when the phone wants???

A Kernel doesn't have anything to do with your reception. That is your radio firmware. If you're having issues, flash the 4.0.4 radios. If you've already done it, do it again. Make sure you fully read instructions.
Note: CDMA radio update can take up to 5 minutes, this is normal.

[Q] Flash radio in recovery

Im having major signal loss on my Galaxy Nexus with the XXKK1 radio.
Any radio recommendations?
And somehow I messed up my adb on Windows and I cant get it working again, so I need flashable radios.
http://code.google.com/android/nexus/images.html#yakju
here are all the original factory images.
within them, there is radio as well
in 4.0.2, you will have XXKK6 radio.
I flashed this XXKK6 radio (coming from XXKK1), seems ok so far
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1374077
Theres a CWM flashable zip on page 3
Not sure if its compatible with all versions though, im on 4.0.3
Thank you! Tried KK6, and noticed slight better speeds.
What radio is recommended/the best?

Assuming you are talking about the GSM version you can find the radio images here. Select one that you know worked fine before.
To flash it you can either flash an update.zip with it in CWM or flash it using "fastboot flash radio radio.img". None of those will do anything to your data.

So, if I were to falsh CM9 from the site on my sprint phone...

I would have to flash the radios afterwards, correct?
What are you going to flash? There is no CM9 built for the Sprint Galaxy Nexus.
the hardware for the verizon and sprint phones are the same, except for the radios is my understanding. so if i flash the cdma cm9 nightly on the cm site, i should be able to flash the radios afterwards and be fine right
Found this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1612070
So I would really suggest you don't.
that post was made before the radios were able to be pulled from the sprint device
If you don't want to take his advice just flash it yourself and report what happens.
If it works, great.
If it messes your phone up then its on you.

Galaxy nexus radio can't remove

Hi guys,
I have a backup of an rom I9250XWKK9_user_ITL41F_163575.tar
Before this i flashed a telstra radio using Galaxy Nexus toolkit. Now when i flash the rom or any rom i have the same radio installed (i9250TDVKKX).
Anybody able to tell me how to remove this and install rom again from backup?
I'm only a noob and a its supposed to have XKKK1 radio.
I did restore the rom a couple of times after a Google image restore and after this was restoring from above backup and every time i had different radios when it should be XKK1 lol.
Is there a way to completely wipe the phone and do recovery from cwm from the toolkits via flash technique of not installing cwm from within nexus toolkit. step 6 i think it was.
Cheers
Dan
Flash your backup and then find the xxkk1 radio cmw flashable zip file from the development section radio thread and flash that.

I just installed UGLC1 (the newest right now) and it is working great!
Roms and radios are independent of one another, so flashing a ROM will leave the radio unchanged. What you're seeing, them, it's as it should be.
That being said, I abhor toolkits. It's easy enough to just flash a radio image in Fastboot yourself. Nothing against those that develop them, but so-called all-in-one solutions can easily cause problems for the inexperienced.

This x1,000,000.
Also to the guy recommending the uglc1 radio, aren't they for north America and the xx series radios are for Europe etc and are uncapped?
If the phone came with an xx radio then flash an xx radio.
Preferably XXLA2 which is the newest xx series radio.

That doesn't matter, the only thing that matters is, wich radio works for you, meaning work as for no signal drops, full bars, great speed, if it's for europe or asia or usa or the moon its the least

Thanks for the help guys.
I've found that the best radio for me is the stock telstra one i9250tdvkk6.
Not sure what build that was released for tho.

[Q] Is it possible to use cwm to flash sprint rom to Verizon Galaxy S 3??

Hi I need to flash sprint Galaxy s3 rom to Verizon Galaxy S3?
I just want to know if it's possible to brick device & if rom doesn't work can I revert back from backup I made with cwm?
Thanks
I've Flash Galaxy Nexus Sprint Rom to a Verizon Galaxy Nexus fine... then I updated the Verizon LTE radio back to it but left sprint radio on it.
Want to know if same thing would work.
Thanks
When you flash your own carriers radio after flashing the ROM, the original radio that may or may not been included in your flashed ROM is overwritten. You won't have both radios at one time. I would recommend never flashing another carriers radio without a lot more research. You can have 1 carriers radio with a different carriers antenna and APN settings. There are many combinations you can choose. Don't worry so much about the rom of Verizon to sprint; be more concerned about flashing a ROM without an included radio. That is where you will run into problems. I also want to mention that if something bad does happen, always have original stock ROM with included kernel and radio to flash within Odin. That will get you past a boot loop or soft brick.

Thanks for insights...
I have a follow up question to this:
How do you know if a ROM has a radio in it? Is there any way of knowing if the ROM packager doesn't tell you?
