as title states, on about phone settings on the phone it says unknown, any way other way to find out what radio the phone currently has?
bump, reason why i wanna know is because i recently flashed another s2 that was still using oem rom from when the phone first came out. when i flashed over to sbean it was showing an unknown baseband but that radio works better in my area than the one i have now on my phone.
So you wanna know what radio sbean came with?

its a Gingerbread based radio, just find out what stock version your phone came with = your radio
also as a side note, even though it says unknown baseband, your phone will still function normally

ok well i downloaded the new eg30 tar and tried to use mobile odin since i didnt have access to a pc right away. well it fubard on me,and so i got home and whent to flash through odin.well in my haste i flashed it in phone instead of pda.
Once i realized y i was getting countious fails i flashed it properly and yay the phone started and i thought all was good.well its not i put my phone back into odin mode and reflashed it again along with pit,modem,phone efs clear, and re partition hoping this would fix my phone. well ofcourse it did not im know stuck with everything working except for radio my phone displays this on my screen:

When phone is plugged into pc it says on my phone MTP-CONNECTED and on my pc it labels it as portable device..... Idk if this helps or not
edit: well i have entered this *#767*3855# and it has gotten me to atleast a signal bar but says im roaming and cant update profile or anything.....says error no service error...
Edit: well sprint tried to get my phone to restore profile n that.I got my msl code but phone says its wrong so know they say I need to drive an hr to a sprint store nothing else they can do....
Edit: know it says im on channel 0...
When i tried to place a call it stated welcome to verizon ....
Edit: I have used the trick found to upload cutom prl and i am know on sprint. and the msl code that sprint gave me works with qpst but not the software on the phone? Is there a way to edit the profile info so i can get my stuff set back up using qpst?
Edit: when i run the ## rtn i get a list of things they are as followed

I KNOW THIS IS ALOT OF INFO BUT TRYING TO GIVE AS MUCH AS I CAN SORRY...
How do i fix this and get out of this mode?
I believe you just need to grab one of the .bin files (like the new EG30.bin) and put THAT in phone. That's where I flashed my Modem.bin to, so I'd guess that's what you need to do.
yea ive tried that to no aval....ty for trying to help tho...

Has anyone tied a FULL tar together that includes the ROM, modem, and kernel? Maybe that would get you out of that because it would overwrite everything in one shot. When I last flashed the stock tar it still wasn't complete so my apps and modem remained. A full tar might set everything back to out-of-the-box condition. Let me see if one is posted yet..

Did that include a modem? If it did, it must have been EG12 because we couldn't get back to EG30 until tonight. I am tired so I may be missing something but there is a way to fix this. I walked someone who flashed a GSM radio on a CDMA Nexus and we saved that. I know there's a way but I may need to sleep on it.

I flashed my phone with a android revolution from and then after that I don't have any signal my signal bar has a x there can anyone tell me why?I am using a GSM I know cuz I'm from Asia but the problem is I have no signal at all I really need help badly
Look at your baseband.... The ítem im showing you in the screenshot and see if you have something installed..
If not or even if so.. Go to the general section and get into the radios thread and download several radios, then flash em via fastboot until you get signal

Go to About Phone > Status and scroll down to IMEI. If it says unknown, or starts with 0049, your EFS folder is corrupted. Either way compare the IMEI on that screen to the one on your phone's box.
The GN is a Samsung phone so the EFS gets corrupted for inexplicable reasons when flashing ROMs on occasion. Common enough issue on the SGSII, and other Samsung phones I'm sure.

You either didn't flash radios properly, or you flashed a CDMA ROM.

I've only ever had to fix mine when I've had a b/ u already in place, unsure how to repair corrupted efs without having a backup. If your imei is okay however you don't have to worry about that, but search for imei b/u regardless.

may i ask what radio you used im having the same problem.
I've tried JB 4.1 and 4.1.1 and both versions give me the same strange phenomenon . Once in a while the pin code screens pops up and disappears immediately.
Sometimes the pin code screens stays up for a while, entering my pin code gives an invalid pin code message.
Inserting my wife's sim card does not solve this problem.
I do not have this problem running ICS.
Here's a video showing the bug (bit shaky):

Anyone knows about this problem?
radio version?
Did you flash the new radio? I'm also on 4.1.1 and am not seeing this issue, but I didn't update the radio firmware...

I did not flash my radio.
I get the exact same issue. How every its only when I'm using my 0044 global sim. My UK orange sim is fine. Also only happens when I try to make a call.
Currently running JB 4.1.0 port.

I have it when i'm working with the phone. I don't know if it could be the sim card since i don't have this issue with 4.04.
flash the radio
I'd suggest trying to flash the radio firmware & see what happens... New radio is supposed to work with both ICS & JB.

Well that is the latest radio available I'm afraid. If it doesn't work for you, you could always try to downgrade to a previous version and see if that helps in your case...
It's early but so far it did not happen. This might just be the solution.

I will try reflashing the radio once /while I'm flashing 4.1.1 and retest

I am running CM10 4.1.1 the Phone IMEI is unknown and as well Baseband Unknown. I have flashed a new radio and still nothing. Read a post about working in shell and tried some of that to work through it but it still the same thing. NOTE: it also said for md5 and 4.0.3.
I have looked at this and also tried it but with no luck it seems. I really need help can someone offer me some advice. My Gn also keeps rocking between radio off and radio on. I am willing to buy someone a couple of beverages if I can get some help!
Thanks, Gentry
You can try the 5 steps, no harm trying. Just note that the so called EFS folder is called /factory in the root.

I had the same problem. I tried everything, different kernels, mods, stock firmware, basebands, etc. Nothing changed. I was able to see baseband version in fastboot screen, but not in Android's about phone view. Eventually I brougth my phone to the service and they changed motherboard.

Please direct me to a thread that explains this if it exists. I am not a newb to flashing but still lack some knowledge about it.
I unlocked my gnex, flashed twrp, flashed superuser, then flash the jan 14th nightly cm10.1 which worked well for me.
Then i decide that i needed to flash a radio for some stupid reason(obviously the wrong one) leading to an endless battle to retrieve my connection.
I used odin to get to ics stock. I am running ics stock and still no service connection. I can see my imei but..... network, mobile network type, my phone number, min, prl version, and iccid are all unknown.
EDIT:
I flashed a different stock rom from odin. Stock ICS. Then flashed the radio that came with it and now..
Voice calls work though i feel like the reception sucks
Sms works great as far as i can tell
4g works great
3g doesnt exist at all.
I think i may just be missing the radio for 3g. (cdma?)
Im afraid of flashing anything before knowing what will actually work but i need 3g.
U might have to take it in to sprint

You can't reflash it with the correct radio?
Radios are device specific. Ga02 are latest from sprint and can be found
in the sprint galaxy nexus sourcery thread. If on GSM find latest in that
that thread. Flash using twrp. I lost connection when trying to flash a
Verizon prl once. Flashed radios then spammed the update profile and
Update prl until I got connected

After getting it mostly working with ics I flashed cm10.1 but did not flash another radio.
This confuses me because i thought i needed an updated radio to go with the updated rom. From ics to 4.2.1.. But instead of needing another radio it worked the same as it did with ics.
Is the ga02 going to be what i need with cm10.1? Also does it work better from fastboot or twrp? Does it matter if i flash a cdma or an lte radio first?
Ga02 is not needed but it's the latest radio.
They all work but different people prefer different radios.
Many are flashable using twrp. Just got to find them.
Also make sure the radios you flash are for your carrier.
Hello all. I bought Galaxy Nexus L700 a few days ago. It was used.
And I have a problem now. After it boot up, I have a message "no SIM-card, No Service" After I change Mobile Network from CDMA to LTE/CDMA and back to CDMA I have a signal. But no 3G.
I know that this issue is available at Verizon Gnex until you insert SIm card. I'm confused because there is no SIM card.
Does anybody know how can i fix it? I tried flash factory image from link above, but with the same result.
Please, help!

What Stock ICS did you used? Could you give me a link, please?
And how about SIM error now?
Did you find out how to fix 3G? I think you need to get login/pass from carrier.
