Problem with hydroxygen mod v1

Hey
Flashed this any everything works apart from my phone cant find any network nor data signal. Tried flashing different kernals and modems but nothing works. Some people have had the same problem but no luck either.
Does anyone have any idea's how to fix this?
Any help would be appreciated. Thank you

Enter network settings manually is the normal first step .

Thanks will give it a shot

No voice NOR data signal? Sounds like the modems that came with the ROM you flashed aren't compatible with your network. Try the modem thread.
So if i found a t mobile modem for example then flashed that, it should work?

Yes. Provided you're meaning T-mobile Europe. (NOT T-mobile USA)

Just be sure you use I9100 modems. Don't use modems intended for any other models of phone...
hmm not having too much luck finding a t-mobile modem. Know where i could potentially find one ?

Shipped modem thread.
Doesn't seem to be anything that specifies which are used by T-Mobile of any particular country though. You could ask around and see if any T-Mobile users in your country can tell you what modems they are using in their phone.
I don't find a "hydroxygen mod v1" ROM when I search. Are you referring to "HydrOG3NMOD V1.2"? If so, it may be better for you to post in that thread asking if any other users of that ROM are experiencing the same issue. Maybe some additional steps are necessary.
But if you don't get help there, I'd suggest you reflash a stock ROM first (from Intratech's official stock firmware thread) and make sure you get voice/data signal. Then reflash whatever ROM you're looking at, but remove "modem.bin" from the package before flashing so you retain the modems that work.
Thanks alot man really helped and sorry my bad. Meant the one you posted the link too

Hi there.
The ROM doesn't flash modem, as this is user based preference.
I'm using Ki4 here. In France.
And here is HydrOxygen Btw.

[Q] ICS for GT-I9100T

Hi,
Does anyone know of an ICS ROM for the Galaxy S2 GT-I9100T model?
You can use any rom for the I9100. Makes no difference.
Just flash your i9100t modem back on ics works for me.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda premium
Hi, thanks for your reply.
I already installed an ICS ROM intended for the regular model, and it is very very buggy. The internet connection is very bad.
I did some research on the Web and what I understand it's a problem with the modem. The modem for the T model is different.
I'm in Israel on the Pelephone network.
Hi 7t
I wrote my comment just as you wrote yours, so I didn't see it.
From where can I download a modem for the T model?
Thanks.

I9100T doesnt mean nfc it is optimized for 850 mhz network.

As 7tOny4 says, the T thing is about the modem, nothing to do with NFC.
No NFC in Israel anyway.
Thanks anyway.
I have a GT-I9100T and have been using various ICS roms, including the CM9 nightlies, for the past month or so. At the moment, I'm running Resurrection Remix.
The modems included in the latest roms have all worked fine for me, so all I've had to do is re-add the appropriate APNs If for some reason it doesn't work with the included modem, just flash a modem file from your carrier or another local carrier that uses similar frequencies.
There's a collection of modem files from different carriers globally on this thread:

With the official release of ICS today, I expect that we'll be seeing updates to all of the main one-off roms within the next few days, including updated kernels and modems.
I have a gs2 i9100T and running remix ICS 9.6. It is fast, smooth and stable.

[Q] Modem for Vodafone GR branded I9100?

Well as the title says, thanks in advance.

To clarify I have the one that came with 2.3.5. I just want to know if you can propose sth better. Ics modems are way too battery hungry

Start with the last modem and work your way backwards is the rule for modems .

Thanks all

Today must be a record for posting in the wrong forum .
RULES say question = Q&A
Answer use CHECKFUS to check the release yourself .

Android 4.0 has been out since mid march... And the Bell i9100 supports all ROMs on these forums. Why wait for the Bell version? It won't come anytime soon I think... We're always 6 months behind in Canada, which is why I buy international phones.
Do you have a link for a no problem bs Ics update?

Stock? There are tons of ROMs all over the place, you can read up in general, all new ICS releases are posted there which are flashable by Odin or Mobile Odin...
If you want Custom ROMs, you have Wanam lite, ICS resurrection, Cyanogenmod 9, etc.etc.etc.etc.
Well since I'm on my phone with out a comp at the moment... So any direct link to an official no bs Ics would be super helpful with lots of rep sent

You'll probably see that for a loooong time. Your carrier hasn't released any update for your device.
If you want to update, read, study, read some more, then... before anything else... backup EVERYTHING including your EFS FOLDER before you attempt any flashing or updating.
If you do that, you'll save yourself, and everyone who attempts to guide and assist you here in the future, a world of trouble.
Learning how to backup your EFS folder is more important than anything else you do (if you want to have an actual phone and not just a $700 media player, that is).
BTW, you are new, but questions are posted in the Q&A section. You posted in General. This will probably be moved.
Probably there's no new update available in your region or your phone is branded.

try using kies, had the same "issue"
With my baseband version under which region do I fall because I bought it from a Samsung shop in ghana..
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium
just download samsung kies and check for updates, if kies says there are no updates wait a bit more, cause that's a carrier issue
Again baseband is not your firmware version.

My unbranded phone has never been able to get OTA updates for some reason, I have always had to use kies, I get this message when there is an update.
Happens every time I try and haven't been able to solve it.

As per multiple posts and answers .
You are in a queue wait .
Why anyone joins XDA Developers forum to use Samsung updates services is beyond my understanding .
