Maybe a noob question, but did Google release one baseband for all the Nexus 4 devices all over the world? If that is so, why for example is Samsung releasing different basebands for different regions?
Can somebody who had an official OTA download post the number of his/her baseband? Just to check, thanks!
There is only one version of the Nexus 4, therefore there is only one baseband

It's correct that there's one, international baseband, but it has been upgraded several times. It though it was like this:
4.2.1 = .33
4.2.2 = .48
4.3 = .84
Here's a picture of my current one:

Hi all I have x2 Nexus 7 32gb versions.
The old one came with build JRO03D and the new one came with JRN84D.
When I updated the new N7 to Jellybean 4.1.1, the build became JRO03D, question is, which is the newer build number ? I thought it was the JRN84D as it was the new Nexus batch that just got delivered.
cheers
JR003D is 4.1.1 where as other is just 4.1

Where u get 32gb versions from then?
Sent from my MB860 using Tapatalk 2
hi sorry, my bad, they are both 16gb.
I'm on stock 4.2.2 and stock kernel.
I noticed that when I'm on the .33 baseband, I can make phone calls but there is no call volume. (Not able to hear anything as if the in-call volume is muted)
When on .48 this problem doesn't exist.
Had anybody found a solution to this? I would like to retain LTE functionality.

Maybe .33 baseband is not compatible with 4.2.2?
I am on Rogers in Canada and do not have this issue.
I am on 4.2.2 Stock with the .33 radio and I just tested this out.
LTE is working and I just made and received a call and we had no problems hearing each other.
Your post greatly concerns me but I can't back it up.
Have you tried it with the old bootloader as well?
Flash back to the 4.2.1 radio
Sent from my Nexus 4 using Tapatalk 2
The .33 radio is the 4.2.1 radio.
Anyone else have this issue before I go back to .33?

"Official"? LOL.
The whole point of having an entire "Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting" sub-forum is to be able to post distinct threads for each issue so that no one has to wade through hundreds of unrelated posts in a single thread looking for an answer to their question.
Trying to decrease the usefulness of XDA in order to karmawhore is not cool.

I have only tried the radios. .48 (it works but breaks lte) and .33.
Where can I find the .33 matching boot loader?

In the Google 4.2.1 factory image.

I should have been more specific. Is the boot loader from 4.2.1 the boot.IMG file? Or is there a different file I'm looking to extract and push?

It'll be the one with the mostly gibberish name. I can't check exactly at the moment though.

Only the .48 radio atm causes no problem with 4.2.2 afaik. This is how Google/LG intended it to prevent LTE trafficing. So you either have LTE and a lot of issues or no LTE and no problems, your choice
You can always roll back to 4.2.1 to keep LTE.
Is LTE selection in the hidden menu controlled by the kernel or the boot loader?
I ask because it would be nice if kernel developers could re enable that feature on the .48 kernel.

I recently switched from a Galaxy s3 to a Nexus 4 and would like to get LTE on it as Rogers does not support DC-HSPA 42Mbps. So far from all the threads i have read say there are a few ways to do this:
1) downgrade to 4.2.1
2) Flash 4.2.2 with the .33 Radio.
3) custom Rom 4.2.2 with .33 Radio.
From what i gathered people who flashed .33 radio (or older) on 4.2.2 have been having a range of problems. And apparently 4.2.1 has a lot of bugs in general?
It would be great if someone who has already done this could post about their experience with each of the options as i'm tired of reading pages and pages of posts about how the Nexus 4 is not suppose to have LTE and to be happy with the hspda etc.
Thanks
I am also interested in this any advice would be appreciated

If you happen to lose the ability to make or receive calls on your Nexus 4 on the .33 baseband then you must flash the latest .48 baseband to make calls.
I am going to flash a 4.1.2 ROM when I get home I had a nexus 4 when they first came out running lte went to a note 2 and now back again to nexus 4;I am running the latest paranoid android 3.1 and faux kernel but the internet is painfully slow without lte I really can't take it any more will try 4.1.2 then 4.2.2 with the different radios

I am almost positive that there is no backwards compatibility with Android. Meaning, that since the Nexus 4 debuted with 4.2, you couldn't run a 4.1.2 ROM, and that's why they don't exist (to my knowledge).
to anyone interested i flashed a .33 radio from paranoidandroid 3.1 / latest faux kernel and i now have lte back - now everything is good !!

golfinggino,
Could you be a little more clear/descriptive? What ROM/kernel are you running now? Are you still running 4.2.2 stock or something else? Did you follow instructions that you found somewhere?
Thanks in advance,
JT

Yes was running the latest paranoid android and faux kernel wasn't happy with it and just flashed the latest carbon ROM ( much better) along with today's faux update, lte is working on the this ROM as well
i made and received some phone calls and didn't notice anything unusual, i will test making and receiving some calls tomorrow
Sent from my Nexus 4 using XDA Premium HD app
tested it today and the call quality seems to be better on the .33 radio then the latest one ? could just be me ? anyway ran on lte all day was connected to wifi for bit and still managed 5 hours screen on time - just picked up a nexus 10 today and in the process of loading up carbon rom on it - that should really fly !
hey again guys thanks for all the responses and sorry about the late response.

I think im going to try the Carbon rom too. Did you have to flash the older radio with it or no? sorry im new to flashing roms and radios and such.
Thanks again guys will post again with my results (hopefully wont mess up my phone in the process XD)
yes i flashed the older radio - the one i used was cwm-radio-mako-m9615a-cefwmazm-2.1.1700.33.zip
i was running paranoidandroid 3.1 but think the carbonrom is smoother
Only problem is that at least on cyanogenmod using any radio other than version 48 causes auto focus in the camera to not work.

What the heck....that is so irrelevant. There is absolutely no relation between the camera application and the baseband. It has to be a CM 10.1 rom issue.

Test it for yourself. Many have had problems with autofocus on .33 radio. Updating baseband fixes that issue. And if updating the baseband fixes it, by definition it's not a cm issue.

Im currently runing on the 4.2.2 basesband (M9615A-CEFWMAZM-2.0.1700.48) to flash a 4.3 rom do i have to update the Newest baseband ????
I had some issues trying to keep an older radio when I first moved to 4.3, I only held onto it for lte purposes but I found some awesome hybrid radios that worked flawless.
Search out the radio thread and grab the latest hybrid, works great if you want to have lte enabled with some of the newest ROMs (that may not support lte out of the box)
And be sure to thank the dev that created them
Sent from my Nexus 4 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
would the hybrid radio work on Paranoidandroid ?? cause it asks for you to be on the latest radio
Yes it should work, there are a couple hybrids of the latest ones, again not needed if you don't use lte, but if you do they're great!

I want to install ParanoidAndroid 3.99 which is Android 4.3 on my Nexus 4 (T-Mobile) and I wanted to know what Baseband you guys Recommend to have LTE enable because I read that you can lose LTE when upgrading to a newer baseband is it Okay to use the Stock 4.2.2 baseband on a 4.3 rom ?
LTE was a feature that was added through an altered radio. LTE was never meant to be part of the Nexus 4 features.
Flashing a ROM does not usually flash a radio.
Thanks For the reply sorry I new to the Nexus 4 But I'll flash the ROM then
