I was trying to surprise my wife with a new ROM and I accidentally put the wrong one in and now there's no network service on her GSM Nexus S 4G! I'm trying for hours to get this to work before she wakes up tomorrow and realizes its not working for her meeting. Please if anyone can help...i'll be up all night.
I've tried everything from full wipe to restoring back to GRJ22 ROM/ Pushing the radio via fastboot keeps saying failed. Help please guys.
GSM nexus 4G?
Yes and it's by Samsung. I can't find a radio to flash anywhere. Can you help, please?
Is this on Sprint or AT&T?

It is on ATT i've searched all over the forums and decided to just post just now.
please read what you are flashing. i dont know anything about the att version so i cant say for sure if the other radios work fine. but for one its not a 4g, so DONT use the 4g stuff. the only 4g version of the nexus s is on sprint.
you need a gsm radio, perhaps try flashing one from teh nexus s forums?
I will try that...are there any you could recommend...like a compilation list?
Anyways...thanks so much for the quick assist. I haven't gotten anything to work yet but i'm going to try to search around the NS section.
I haven't seen any att radios floating around anywhere.
I had similar problem ... thankfully I had backed up efs folder ... if u have try restoring it... and then reboot

If your EFS folder is deleted/invalid you're out of luck, no fix for that.
Besides that, there's no working 3G radio for a Sprint NxS 4G on AT&T, it's technically not possible.

Can send in to Samsung, they might recover it for you (although the identifaction number is non-existant), but double check w/ them first.
guys hes not looking for a sprint gsm radio on atts blah blah blah. he has the i9020a. its att's model, its just a slight mix up on the 4g part.
you may have not lost your efs folder. you may have only just flashed a cdma radio thinking that was your radio. try flashing one of these and see if it works again

First things first. Check your imei and make sure its the same as the one on the back or your phone under the battery. If it is your efs is fine.
After reading the replies to this I am a bit disappointed. Where did he say he even touched his efs and/or his imei was corrupt. All the OP said was he flashed a rom and he no longer has connection. That could be a lot of things.

That doesn't say that he wiped it at all. He's just assuming what you said was the actual problem. And said he didn't back them up. Where did he say his imei was screwed up and how did you begin to assume that was his problem? You should have asked the OP to check his imei before you told him there was no solution.

CDMA vs GSM. They have had no problems pushing froyo to their GSM phones across the world. For some reason in the US and especially the CDMA carriers, they cant seem to get it ported correctly.

Samsung has had issues with more than just the Galaxy S phones. They had to stop pushing out the "pre-update" to the Win Phone 7 Samsung devices and they are GSM. Samsung seems to have a problem in general with being able to be consistent.

We can't help you until you give the info we're asking for. Who did you go to? What model is your nexus? What rom are you running? "All rom" doesn't count. Rooted?
I actually have a guy in mind who can fix your phone (I think)!! I read about him in some old book, dude has a soft voice, creeps some people out with his hippy message (all that crap about peace and love!) And was a carpenter before. He's really famous, most people visit him on Sundays, he's like the clean up guy from "Michael Clayton ". I'll talk to him, if he's not busy he'll pm you.

I had someone try to break into a property that I own and they dropped their phone which happens to be a Samsung epic 4g obviously, my question is I wanted to find out who this person is by going through their phone but its password locked. Is there a way I can by pass the lock screen somehow without resetting the device?
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
You could get them clockworkmod 5 through odin, root them through it, then backup their phone, then flash a ROM and then you could go through there SD card for maybe some more evidence...
Sorry I can't post any links on how to, I'm in the middle of a class right now actually lol hopefully someone will be able to though. If they don't, ill be sure to later for most help on this stuff though you can just go to QBKING77 on youtube, he'll show you how to do all things on the Epic.
I'd take the ESN and call Sprint, tell them someone lost their phone and ask them to tell you the owner/address so you can return the phone. Then call the police and give them the info. Or just get the police involved now. Playing detective can be fun and all, but its almost always best to just contact the cops and let them handle it.
However, academically:
If you want to read the contents of the SD Card, just remove it an put it in a card reader...lol.
Now if you wanted to actually get into "their stuff" e.g. e-mail, sms. You'd need to do some more work as noted above. I think you could make a backup of their data in CWM and then purchase titanium backup pro to restore app+data or data only of their info.
Yup odin cm5 then back up, advanced restore data. Bingo

OP, this is an HSPA+ phone. If you can get 3G, you can get 4G (H). The icon just isn't in framework-res.apk. Most likely, the phone it was ported from was a 3G only phone. Hence, no icon.

Jesus Christ, the ROM maintainer just said the speed is the same. Also, no. You would obviously screw it up as it requires reading and you're obviously not willing to do that.

App for Google Calendar and Sync Fail
First of all, great ROM!! Excellent. My only concern is that I can't get access to my google calendar. If the Fliq calendar can do it, I can't find the setup other than buying the missing sync software, which I'd rather not do. I've tried multiple apps from the play store and even pulled the calendar.apk from CM7. No joy. Also, the calendar sync fails with a sync error. I've tried reinstalling the ROM after a full wipe and hard resets, no luck. I can't find anything here or online that seems to address this, but I figure I'm missing something simple. Any help. Thanks in advance.
Edit: Never mind. I found that if I put the file in for the Joy Calendar sync, everything worked fine. My wife loves the ROM. Thanks again.
Also Rom gaap doesn't work whenever try to download something. Have to use Blackmarket. Really love someone to continue working on it could be the next good Rom out there.... Just saying

I don't know, and when you question them, they get seriously bent out of shape. I don't know if anyone has ever done tech work on a phone or on a a forum, in order to get an accurate fix/answer the tech must ask what you have done to get where they were, and so on, also accurate information would aide in a quick fix. It is important.
