Hello there,
Well here is my issue:
My Samsung Galaxy has low GSM Signal.
I tried to restore the firmware , nothing
I checked around the forums and saw that their are many different Samsung updates from different countries and stuff and i am thinking maybe it has to do with my baseband model or even Kernel
Baseband version : I9300XXLF5
Kernel version: 3.0.15-705505
Buid: IMM76D.I9300XXALF6
Should my build be the same as my Baseband?
If i flash another version (baseband , kernel) will it/could it make any difference?
Regards

Hey Guys
I am currently using the Samsung Galaxy S2 in India
Current Version
Firmware : 2.3.5
baseband xxki1
kernel xxki3
build batista70 2.1 xxki3
In this config, i am unable to use any kernel apart from the CF root and the speedmod
Is it possible for me to use a different modem and baseband altogether. Or will that not be possible for the Indian version of the SGS2.
Will changing that lead to no connections or some other issues?
Kindly help or advice as to how to use other kernels if the above is not an option
Bump. Please Help Guys.
Please Help Me. I am feeling restless for a custom kernel.

If your GS2 is the global version (I9100) then yes, you can flash any I9100 modem or kernel you like. There shouldn't be any connection issues.

Well, samsung said that android 4.0.X will be released for S2, its been released for a lot of basebands but not for mine. My Baseband is I9100XXKI4, and android 4.0.3 hasnt been released for my baseband. If i update my firmware with another firmware that isnt the same as my baseband, can i have any problems? And could i change my baseband to another baseband that has 4.0.3 available? Thank You.
Good day ,
I am looking for an international firmware for my galaxy s3 (no carrier logo)(english)
Im not sure if the baseband/build number makes a difference
This is what i have on my S3
Model - GT-I9300
Android Version - 4.0.4
Baseband - I9300UBLE6
Kernel Version - 3.0.15-554633-user
Build Number - IMM76D.I9300UBALE6
The phone was locked to Digicel (Trinidad and Tobago) i unlocked it and i tried changing the firmware..
The current firmware is registered to CLARO and some of my icons are in spanish
also it is missing alot of features (weather is one)
Can someone please give me some advice where i can get the international version firmware ( stock ) and also does it make a difference what baseband/build number i have ?
Thanks

I am running Paranoid Android 4.6 Beta5 which is on Android 4.4.4. I still have the Samsung firmware modem I9300XXUGNA8 that had my international i9300 when I bought it, so when it was still on Android 4.3 or older, and my mobile network signal is working normally. Therefore I guess that your modem doesn't need to match the Android version you’re running. That is what I also understand by this quote from this thread:

“COMPATIBILITY:
*Modems do not need to be matched up with firmware like it's done with ROMs and Kernels. For example, a KI4 modem can be used with a KL1 ROM and the other way round. The only thing you need to pay attention to is what model your SGS2 is. 9100 and 9100 modems are compatible across both models. However, 9100 model and US variants are not cross compatible since the devices are designed to work on different bands.”

I am actually also looking into modems these days, I’m trying to see if there are custom modems that might be more efficient in term of mobile network reception speed and battery drain than the firmware modem I now have.

I ended up flashing with Odin the modem from the last firmware on sammobile for my country and carrier, but my baseband version in "about phone" didn't change so I guess that I already had it. I didn't find a better candidate than that, so that's the only one I tried.
There are the main threads I found about modems:
