Im currently running stock rooted gb, and i want to make the switch to ics. I have gone to ics before but went back to gb for stability. Now it seems a lot of the bugs have been fixed, and I want to try the new Only One Rom. However I am on tmobile and want to make sure the modems work. I know the gb modems wont work, but I have some ics modems such as blaze ics modem from the first ics releases. Will those work on these new leaks and roms?
Also once i make a nandroid backup and flash only one ics rom. Will i be able to revert back to gb if needed through my nandroid backup (like you could do with alpha 2 ics rom)?
i switch back and forth all the time, just need to flash the appropriate radio as well each time.
EG: you are on ICS with an ics radio, restore/flash back to GB and flash a GB based radio like Blaze.
I havent been able to get an ICS ROM to work with an ICS Radio. I get a big circle with a strike in it like a not allowed sign. As soon as i go back to GB and flash a GB Radio it picks up 4G any help?

On ics i am using the leet ics gs2 modem. and I get 4g signal but then after a while ill get a notification in the bar saying i lost data because i left my house and it wants me to turn on roaming?! and when i did just to try it i got signal again, but i wasnt sure if i would get charged so i turned it off. Didnt have any of this in gb
At least you get signal i have yet to get that far. Whats the link for the ICS ROM your currently on? Ive tried only one ROM and a no go for me. You should check if it works if it doesnt just restore and flash the radio again because when u flash the new ROM it will flash the UCLE2 radio and you will only get EDGE.

Maybe someone could explain this to me: What exactly is a Radio? I'm assuming a modem is what lets you make phone calls and receive data, but the radio is the GPS/Wifi drivers/firmware?
I had installed Blaze Modem and others trying to fix both a issue with S Voice and GPS. My data got better, and I got more bars but no solution for S Voice or GPS.
(S Voice only works over WiFi, won't work on 4G)
If I understand correctly, maybe I should be looking for compatible radios to flash as well? Any recommendations?
Theyre the same thing try a different radio/modem. Aee if that fixes the gps.
Im on the sgsII leaked one and works fine for.gps..

UVLC8 Baseband is always the go-to radio.

I just upgraded from my old Droid Eris to a new fascinate last friday and I've been messing around with it trying out different ROMs and such and i decided to install the ED01 v1.2 rom today. I was enjoying it until i found out that i couldn't recieve texts and when i sent them all it would send was a blank text...
I've since reverted back to stock and I was wondering if anyone could help me out because I was really enjoying the rom until i realized I wasnt getting texts.
What modem did you flash when you were running UKB 1.2?
*You should be running the EC01 or the ED01 modem. You can find the ODIN file for EC01 modem in the forums. Sadly, in order to have the ED01 radio, you need to go through Adrynalyne's process of retrieving it (which you can also find in the forums).
I think I was just running the EI01 regular baseband. I didn't know that was even a factor. I'm going to try to find everything you just mentioned haha, wish me luck

actually i run into the same problem.. im on ec01 radio comm 1.2, i live in an area with poor service.. but i could usually send messages.. now if i lose service for more than 5-10 minutes.. i have to reboot phone to get them to send/recieve.. not even toggling airplane mode will bring it back.. ive tried *228 with no improvement
Ok so I reflashed a stock fully bloated 100% original rom and took the OTA update to Froyo which upgrades the modem to ED01 right? So i should be able to flash the community rom fine now without any problems right? or am i completely wrong?

It should work if you followed adrynalyne's steps to getting ED01 with ED01 radio. Good luck!
Hey all,
After attempting to install the gsm ics leak and bricking my phone and having to spend an entire day bringing it back from the dead, I warn you not to go and install that if you have the same phone I do, (but if you do, pm me and I will be glad to help you fix your phone).
Anyways, on to my question: Does anyone know if it is possible to get any functional version of ics onto the xt910 canadian rogers version?
I would settle for CM9 or AOKP because I'm 99% sure there is no way to make the phone work with any leak. Thanks!
Cm9 and akop work on our phones as long as you apply the GSM patch if it isn't already implemented..
its not the smoothest though since you will still be running the original kernel and radio from 2.3.5
Sent from my XT910 using XDA
I'm actually on cm9 and everything is smooth, but I've found that if you touch Bluetooth, you're going to have to factory reset your phone using fastboot. Huge pain in the ass if you ask me. Other than that, everything seems ok. Still works better than Arctic.
have you guys tried the gummy ICS rom? Just picking up my phone this week and trying to figure out whether to stick with stock and wait it out OR flash and have fun...
I haven't tried Gummy (not sure why you would want that over AOKP or CM9, though), but I would say this: if you don't stay stock, you don't have much in the way of options. You can run Arctic pretty smoothly, or you can go for one of the ics roms and stay very far away from bluetooth. If you decide to flash right away, MAKE SURE you back up your stock image because otherwise you'll never get a rogers rom back on your device, since there are no fastboot files for it through the eternity project (which means they basically don't exist).

Gummy is based off the same source as CM9 and AOKP.. with only ROM tweaks, the same bugs apply

Nandroid backup of Rogers System
I am running CWM and the stock rom and like it much better. It seems to connect at startup to t-mobil 4g, but after a few minutes goes to edge. Is there anyway to make it stay on 4g? Is there a modem that I can flash that will work with the stock rom?
Thanks!!
I'm pretty sure that all the 4G radio/modem suggestions that are supposed to work on T-Mobile can be used on the stock ROM as long as the phone is rooted.
After the phone is rooted, would you use cwm to install the modem?
I think on the stock rom i cant force the hspa..just changed the rom to saurom so u can get better 4g and u can force it.

I am using my ATT Note in Turkey with a different GSM operator. I want to upgrade my phone from GB to ICS UCLD3.
Will I face any problem with getting reception if I upgrade my rom to leaked ICS UDLD3?
You shouldn't have any issues at all if your phone works fine there on GB. But make a backup of your current setup anyway, that way if there is an issue you can just restore your backup.

I have just stock GB. It is not rooted nor CWM installed.
Would it solve the problem to install back existing GB version if I have a problem with ICS?
I hope i will not face any problem as you said

I'm on Tmobile and using UCLE3 with the modded Modems. You shouldn't have any issues, but you will need to be rooted and have CWM to flash the ROMs. You can always flash back to GB if you don't like ICS. IMO ICS is the way to go. More features, faster browsing and slightly better battery life.
Like the topic says, I have an AT&T note, but T Mobile service. I recently (last night) found the wonderful work by several XDA members of which they supply us with a flashable zip that contains a radio that will give T Mo 4G data speeds.
I forget which one I finally used (there's the SGH-T989 KID radio, VKL1 radio and one called blaze). There is also a build.prop file that completely rendered my device useless (requiring an OS re-install).
I also have a few ICS modems, again the "KID" or is it "K1D" Im not sure... that, the "Blaze" version and one from the carrier "Telus". I also saw a Rodgers version floating around somewhere. I think that was really for the Galaxy S2 but it works with our Note
Anyway I am really missing ICS, I have 2.3.6 now. I need to know what is a good modem radio to flash if Im going ICS. Also whats a good ICS rom (keeping in mind the flashing of the T Mo radio)...
thanks
Roms and modems are interchangeable, meaning you can use whichever modem you want, on whichever Rom you want.
The blaze modem is what you want to use for t-mobile
Also the apn settings for t-mobile would probably be beneficial

So it doesn't matter if the Rom is gingerbread based but the modem is from an ICS build? And Vise/Versa...?
Nope
