Hello guyss, Can anyone tell me how to flash a Modem in Galaxy S2 through CMW or ODIN. And which file is the Modem file in the .tar/.zip folder... And If I flash a modem of different firmware so will it cause any problem....

You use odin but instead of PDA, you will use the phone button.
You can use different modems on different roms according the region you live in.
Only problem will be no or poor reception, if you chose the wrong modem.. To fix simply flash another modem.

Flash through CWM if in .zip format.

Csc question

Hey if i download a custom rom do i need to download the original csc package?
Sent from my GT-I9100T using XDA Premium App
I don't believe so.
You only need to download a CSC package if you need to change the CSC that's curently installed on your phone.
Oh ok but if i download a rom doesnt it change the csc?

CSC is totally independent of anything else, if you update via kies it may update your csc but unless you flash a new one via odin it won't be overwritten by custom roms.
You also don't need to update your csc its mostly just apn settings and maybe some region specific Apps eg iplayer in the uk.

Flash after flashing full rom .

[Q] Custom rom and updating just the baseband?

Hi Guys,
Im currently using CM7 nightly build 20 and noticed that my modem was still in I9100XXKG2
Now i hear the latest modem is KG6 and is supposed to address some battery issues.
How do I go about upgrading it without screwing my custom rom over? Previously before i popped on CM7, Samsung KIES would handle it all for me.
I have a i9100XXKG6.zip with Code file, CSC File, Kernel file, modem file and PIT file
Do I just use Odin in (vol down, home + power) to flash just the modem file and then re-root with superclick?
Thanks!
Easiest way is to use codeworkx radios in rom manager. You can flash that over your existing radio without messing up your CM rom.

There is a sticky thread with every radio, download the one you want and flash via odin
Or if you have rom manager premium they are all available via that.
Just so you know, the radio version that's best is very region dependant

Do you want a specific modem version?
You could try this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1075278
You can download the whole firmwares from there. Most of the firmwares consist of 3 parts. The .tar file with "modem" in its name is the modem which you can flash via Odin. Be sure to flash it in the right section of Odin.
So just download the firmware extract it and flash only the modem.
Hey..tnx pal.

[Q] Can you install any modem to any kernel?

I want to install a new modem, but I'm going to be running an older kernel than the modem. Will this combo work fine?
I run the opposite. I match my modem to the carriers firmware, and flash back modem after the ROM and kernel. No problems with speed or connectivity. You can only try....

Any modem can run with any rom.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda premium
Yes but sometimes Modem must be compatible with the Android build...
try
so you can try and if the new modem isnt work on older rom then reflash old modem too
Yep, pretty simple really. Extract modem from Intratech firmware thread and flash with Odin, our search for some of the CWM flashable modems. Try and test......

Sgs2 unlock/root and unroot/stock ROM update?

Hi..i have a Three UK network phone which i have unlocked using method described on xda...however I'd like to debrand it by installing another ROM and unroot...will i lose the unlock in this process?
Also, if i downloaded ROM from samfirmware, how can i apply using odin as there are a few files included? I'm not very technical when it comes to various intricacies of Android ROMs!
As always thanks for your help in advance...

You can flash any firmware you like, and later a csc to match UK or just enter the APN settings manually. XX UK or XE/XW European etc, but as I said, doesn't really matter. For best data speed, connection etc you need to then flash a modem that best suits your carrier. Best to just try.
For the latest modems, some flashable via Odin and in CWM recovery:
