Hello!
I have problem.
I have galaxy S2 with stock rom, and the phone comes from UK. I have pretty bad mobile network signal in Latvia. Comparing to some other S2 phone, it had better signal strength.
My guess would be, that some Frequency's are different. I couldnt find which phone builds are meant for which countrys, and couldnt get list of supported Frequencies.
My phone build nr. is "JZ054K.I9100XWLSD".
Try different modems

This.
Look at the other S2 and flash the same modem.
This what?
Yes flash same modem.

I meant that you're right, OP needs to flash a different modem.
I've added that he/she needs to flash the same modem as on the S2 with the good reception.
O ok cool. Sign may not be as good if on a different network or maybe it's his network that's slower than his mates network. But yes good advice and open should do that :thumbup:

Just wondering what the best modem is for ATT and some other question about modems.
Right now im running wanam lite kj1 5.6 with ICS domination theme. I have KI4 modem flashed because i was on villanrom which i might go back to because it has better battery life.
Does the modem affect the ROM in anyway? just wondering because most roms have a modem prefix to them on the development forum. or is there a certain modem better in every senario?
Thanks for your help!
I too would like to know the best modem for at&t. My current one (Current official uk unbranded) seems to completely lose signal after a phone call or just randomly, it quickly reestablishes connection but still annoying.

Have you tried Odin to push the uckj4 leak modem for the i777? All the 9100 modems I e used on my i777 turn the radio off when a voice call occurs then reconnects after call fails.

Maybe i9100 modems just dont work on i777 and vice versa. Hopefully someone could correct me but i guess its worth a try. Is it better to flash modems via odin then CMW? and another question whats the difference between a modem and a kernel? I know on some level the kernel has something to do with the firmware and the modem has to do with the baseband, but im still unsure about the difference.
Thanks again!
Also have the same problem. The 3g lost the signal randomly. my baseband is "UNKNOWN" . Any idea?

I'm assuming these guys are running real I9100s on AT&T (otherwise they're in the wrong forum) - pushing an I777 modem will likely completely break them.

Hey, did you ever find out the answer to this question?
I want to know what's the difference between flashing with Odin and CMW, is one do more than the other?
yea.. anyone?

I'm on baseband XXKI3, running my I9100 on AT&T... don't have any issues. No call drops, no signal drops after calls are done, etc. Works fine.

Funny - I have XXKI3 as well on AT&T and periodically I get drops and it's almost always just as syncing is initiated.
@robsw
I noticed you are located in Chicago. the problem could just be that AT&T sucks horribly in the downtown area. specifically anywhere near River North or the loop. I have tried just about every available modem and I still have data connection issues in those areas. Even friends with iPhones comain about poor data in those areas.
I use the ki1 modem on my I9100 on at&t in louisiana. Ive found this modem gives me the best signal in my area. I did use ki4 for a while but i kept getting dropped calls inside my house. Now with ki1 no more dropped calls

I live in Champaign,IL. Data drop/hang issue always there on KG2, KI3, KI4 modem. I had data issues even I have full bar of signal. But I do realize that data drop issue is location related. Every time I go to the same place, I got slow or data drop problem. Ha! maybe something isn't configure nicely between the tower and our S2.
yea, I was in Chicago this weekend, kept turning on Airplane mode and back on..
at&t is making me pretty mad.
GT-i9100
4.0.3
Baseband version
I9100XXLPH
XXLPH Kernel as well.
I am in Colorado and my service is great. I dont have much experience with the GB radios because as soon as I got the phone Iw ent to ICS and never went back
It may be worth checking the sticker under the battery to confirm the phones version. In Australia, New Zealand, Israel and some other countries they also sell the I9100T which is just the same as the international version but works better on a T model modem. There are plenty of them linked in the Aussie thread in general.

I'm in the North suburbs. This most often occurs when I'm driving. The call will drop and more often than not, when I glance down at the phone, data will be syncing.
Sometimes, mobile data signal is very low. It varies from excellent Hspa to minimal Edge... I suppose this is is somewhat due to modem I'm running. It's DXLPA that came with Wanam 12.1.
So, which modem would you suggest to flash? That has a stable data signal reception?
Sent from my Galaxy S2 GT i9100
Modems are location and carrier dependent, you should try to test...
However, ask to other peoples won't help you so much, 'couse the best modem for "Herry" from Liverpool could not be the best modem for "James" from London....this is just an ex, the point is that tha network signal depends and changes of quality from place to place....
Edit: here a lot of modems---> http://veyka.co.uk/radios/

and also, DX is a code for Indonesia, Malaysia, Philippines, Singapore, Vietnam so it's for Southeast Asia
Well, I checked the thread with modems (Galaxy s2 shipped modem collection) but I dont know which code is for Croatia...

Try LQ5 or LQ6 , Trust me
Can i try putting a I9305 modem file for my i9300 phone? If so anything else i need to change with this or jsut the flashing of modem using Odin is fine?
I wouldn't try it as I suspect the modem works differently due to LTE
Hi,
Not a good idea..
If it's working. Let me know. xD
I wanna get high speed internet connection.
LoL
My speed currently is 1mbps only. =.="
You will definitely not get 4g on the i9300
Hi,
recently I flashed the most recent nightly cyanogenmod into my I9100 phone. In the areas it used to have moderate mobile coverage now having zero coverage and the mobile says "No Service". I am based in Saudi Arabia and my baseband according to my phone is i9100XXLLPX.
I even tried many other firmware but the problem persists.
Thanks

If you get signal outside well....that's a different story.

My Galaxy S 3 got a problem. When I choose the network only wcdma, no signal appear; if I choose only GSM, the signal is good; WCDMA/GSM, some seconds no signal and some seconds has. I have updated some firmware, but all is the same. I do not know what happens, and can some body help me?
Looks like your provider has rubbish 3G coverage
Try different simcard on network with good 3G/2G and then see what happens

No, other's telepohone has a good 3G signal except for mine.
Hmmmm... Try different modem, if still nothing than your 3G antenna can be faulty or disconnected...

SOME CSC dedicated for SOME networks can have SOME effects on SOME devices, being useful for SOME users in SOME countries...

yes only useful to some users, not me. I failed again. So what's wrong with my galaxy s3, it's a hardware porbelm or software problem?
Speak to your network first and check its coverage maps .
