[Q] Baseband download XXLS6; XXLS8 (KK) - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

When I launch GetRIL I see this:
RIL: KitKat (I9100XXLS6; I9100XXLS8)
md5sum: 163ecafa01912637fe344ec1f8264d70
Baseband: I9100XXLS8
recommended: I9100XXLS6; I9100XXLS8
RIL/baseband doesn't match
Where can I download 'I9100XXLS6; I9100XXLS8' baseband?
I've searched all over google and can't find it. I can only find I9100XXLS6 OR I9100XXLS8, but not the one together.

Clearly you haven't been searching all over google yet, neither the app.
You can click on the list (in the getril app from the play store) and KitKat (I9100XXLS6; I9100XXLS8) is located at the bottom.
Please check the forum first..

The app only downloads the RIL, I need the Baseband, and I can not find it anywhere (searched for 2 hours, have seen many other modems/radios, but not the one I'm looking for)

I tought basebands comes pre with Roms ?

Actually.. This is pretty confusing. I've got a I9100P with kitkat 4.4.4 (CM 11.0)
Was wondering if i actually could try the KitKat (I9100XXLS6; I9100XXLS8) , Since the getril app is recommending me I9100XXLS8; I9100PXXLS8.
Because S2 comes actually with Jelly bean 4.1.2 and the stock modems are designed for jelly bean.
Like im really confused right now. Should i try KitKat (I9100XXLS6; I9100XXLS8) for my I9100P?

Only RIL comes with roms, at least carbon does not flash basebands.

you can either have xxls8 or xxls6 baseband(i.e. modem) on your phone at one time.
So if you have xxls8 baseband on your phone, download matching RIL from GetRIL and install it. That should be enough.
Is this mismatch causing any issues in your phone? or are you just getting curious after seeing the results in getril?

A bit of both.
When I flash XXLS6 or XXLS8 baseband, GetRIL gives me the option to install XXLS6; XXLS8 ril, but not the one from kitkat (and if I use the kitkat ril it says that it does not match)
Also, my other problem is the muffled microphone, it only works when I shout or using the handsfree mode.
It worked before on stock 2.3.3 (was shipped with it), it worked also with XXMS4 (baseband + ril) but I could not call or hang up. When I flash XXMS4 (baseband + ril) now I still have the muffled mic.
And in the service menu I can not select 5 Audio, it doesn't exists. Also, mic boost with sTweaks doesn't work.

Why do you want to install kitkat RIL specifically? AFAIK, RIL and modems are independent of the ROMs.
About your microphone, a modem change wont help or a modem/ril mismatch wont affect it. If mic boost with stweaks itself didnt work they I would suggest you to check your hardware. There is a chance your usb port is gone.

The kitkat ril is needed, I can not make calls or hang up with XXMS4 (not tested with other jb modems/rils).
There might be a chance that it is a hw issue, but I've read on some other topics over the internet that a usb board replace didn't help.

Flashing back region specific modem

Hello,
My S2 originally came with Android 2.3.4. I then decided to root and switch to a custom ROM. I'm currently running Hydra-H2O Rom, AOKP, and I noticed my baseband is not the same as it was anymore (originally phone: I9100UHKG4). Now, after upgrading, I noticed that sometimes my data connection would drop, and the carrier menu that comes with the sim chip (Sim Toolkit) stopped working (i can access it, but it wont communicate).
So, I guess my question is, can I flash the modem part of the original GB stock rom and will that fix my issues?
Thanks for your help
Yeah, you get the actual modem file and either use Odin or ClockwordMod recovery to do it.

Thank you bro, although the modem for my region/carrier does not appear on any of the links listed in your post. It didn't matter because I already extracted it from the original stock rom downloaded directly from Samsung.
I am currently running baseband UHKG4 with no problem, however it did not fix my issue with the Sim Toolkit menu. I still cant use any of the options on it. Maybe it is a chip problem, go figure

useful info.
so, this means that even though people say the models i9100 and i9100m are hardware identical, in fact they are not. the proof would be that the i9100's modem corresponding to a region, for example to europe (with LS6 and LS8 supposed to work) does not work with i9100m designed for canada (here, MUGL3 and XXLQ6 are appropriate).
Don't worry, sometimes it doesn't even work for I9100.

That's bs.
Read my signature.
Mugl3 modem is out performed by ld8 modem on my phone. Location does not dictate model. The i9100 is the i9100, whether you purchase in Canada (the 'M' suffix) or elsewhere.
You choose the modem that works best for you and your phone. Period.

Which modem for Three UK?

Hey guys,
Wondering if I could get some advice on modems. I'm using the latest CM10 preview on the Three network in the UK - and need to flash an appropriate modem. I've read some people do this by trial and error - but is there a better way?
Using the GetRIL app, I see:
RIL: XWLPO
Baseband: I9100XXLPQ
The app is telling me that these do not match. I'm afraid I don't understand the relationship between RIL and baseband - can I use this information to select an appropriate modem from this list:
http://www.clockworkmod.com/rommana...t&name=codeworkx&deviceName=Samsung Galaxy S2
My guess would be to use the LPQ modem - but is that just me not understanding?
Thanks,
Xeo
Ok, I've found this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1131950
It appears to imply that you do indeed just need to try a few different modems until one works well - bah! If anyone has any advice on where to start, it would be most welcome

[Q] Data connection 'asleep'

Hi, recently I just flashed liquidsmooth rc2 4.2.2 rom. The data network seems to be always 'asleep', I do not receives notifications for whatsapp and facebook. Unless, I surf the net using browser or stream some youtube videos. I saw many posts about flashing a radio after a custom rom, so do I need to flash a radio? (there is no fm radio app after i flashed the rom and gapps)
Model: Samsung Galaxy SIII GT-I9300
Custom Rom: LiquidSmooth v2.1-RC2
Android version: 4.2.2

Radio in this case means modem (baseband)
You have a baseband but it might be incompatible, ......it's the baseband you are showing the one you had before the flash?
Also check your apn settings, you might need to get them from your carrier

The baseband is after the flash.

Galaxy S3 Android 4.3 no signal

Yesterday I updated my i9300 to android 4.3
Baseband version I9300BUUGMJ3
Build number JSS15J.I9300XXUGMJ9
..and since then I haven't had any reception. My imei number, serial number, and everything else is same and still there, but I just can't get it to get reception again... When I go to my Mobile Networks, it says registered on network, but again, no reception. Then I tried installing the modem BUUGMJ3 with odin which didn't work. What can help? Stock firmware? Please help.
Thanks in advance.
currently experiencing the same issue mate. I can't seem to find a workaround/solution for this -__-
Is that base band supposed to work in your country? Find an modem later than EMGx, without a RIL, for your country and install that to test.

I've probably made a big mistake there, no it's meant for mine country, it's for the county near mine, Croatia, but I read somewhere that this doesn't matter.. :/
And by 'later than EMGx' I'm not sure what you mean, but I've flashed EMG4 modem which didn't seem to work.
Found something about flashing a previous modem and restoring your EFS folder, but I do not have my EFS folder backed up - I forgot to.
A few days ago I paid about $30 for a repair on my phone, I don't really want to send it off for repairs again, I really wonder if there is an fix to this
Follow the guides in general forum, stickies on how to flash back to 4.1.2 stock rom. Make sure it's at least EMG4 base band.

Yeah, about that...
first of all, sorry for bugging you so much..
but I downloaded the right stock firmware for my country, I9300XXEMG4_I9300BHTEMH1_I9300XXEMG4, but after I flash it via odin when the phone turns on it gets stuck in a loop showing the Samsung logo repeatedly...

Okay, I managed to install the stock firmware 4.1.2 but it still is showing 'Emergency calls only', the modem is xxemg4...

how about your IMEI/Serial numbers? are they still the same before you downgrade and flashed the XEMG4 modem? mine are the same with SN/IMEI so I guess that's why it worked. I just took the risk cause I was really pissed experiencing the lag and the battery drain in 4.3.
Do factory reset from settings option in touch wiz, make sure the imei and serial number match the label under your battery.
If still no good then try another SIM in your phone, final steps would be restore efs backup then repair centre.

Well it's all the same as it used to be. Could it be that the modem I had before EMG4 changed the format of my efs folder?

Did a factory reset, imei, s/n same.
Android 4.1.2 EMG4 modem still no reception.
It seems that MGX modem has change ur IMEI from /efs1 to /efs2. MGX modem seems to support only 4.3 roms (due to some security issue).
It is not recommended,but u could flash an older rom with modem (get from www.sammobile.com) then restore an efs backup (if u did some) from /efs2 to /efs1

Ariza patch only works on older modems (efs v1 modems). So, that wont help.
You said you flashed the zuluman modems but.... did you flash the patched kernels too? You need the patched kernels for the patched modems to work. I don't know why, but that's what zuluman says (according to him, the kernel has a modem signature check and it wont work if the modem was modified).

In my opinion you should flash the latest official firmware and download the appropiate modem and kernel from that google drive.
You can download the latest official firmware from the general section of this forum.
Good luck.
Remember to always have an efs backup!

Flashing the Modem + Kernal after rooting the Phone works for me. I have flashed it using CWM.
Thanks once again.
the same problem with signal
hello,
i've the same problems with my s3. i flashed it OTA to Android 4.3
After this i had no signal. ...
When i found this thread i was so happy. BUT!!!
i downloaded all the modem and kernel files from the google drive and wanted to flash them (Patched_XXUGMK6_xxx.zip) with cwm recovery (latest version).
whenever i want to do this, i get the following message and the update aborts: "E:Can't copy META-INF/com/google/android/update-binary"
what can i do? Can i flash them with odin, too? Or does anybody have another idea?

You said your imei & serial is ok but you cannot register to network. Have you paid your bills?
But if it's corrupted serial number.
Try this guide.
thx for your answer.
Payed my bills? ... uuuuuups!
back to topic: i've flashed my phone back to 4.1.2 for the moment. Network seems to work. ... i'll try some things and give a feedback here. ...
You have to flash an Android 4.3 modem for it to work I think but as your on 4.1.2 now I guess it doesn't matter anymore

No more 4.4 roms?

Hi all,
Been facing a weird issue ever since I flashed official 4.3 (NB6 with NA8 baseband) with Odin.
I've been able to flash roms back and forth earlier, but ever since the "official" 4.3, I no longer get network signal in KK roms. IMEI is empty and baseband is unknown. WiFi works fine though.
Tried flashing different modems but nothing works. The closest I got to getting a signal was for 1 second and then dropped (keeps getting and dropping). Searched the forums but it seems to be very rare.
Always have to restore to official 4.3 via Odin to get a working phone
Any ideas on this or maybe Sammy doesn't like me anymore ?

I had seen the thread earlier but it doesn't mention much except cm 10.1 and "some" setting lol.
Firmware is right (UAE) according to sammobile. I will look into CSC though. I used to be able to flash from official 4.1.2 to TW-based and AOKP-based 4.3 and 4.4 as well, but the official 4.3 firmware was bad news (pretty smooth rom though)
I'm guessing that the NB6 fw hampers baseband/radio to prevent KK roms from reaching S3 users. Kind of like a hidden Knox or something.
~ RazorMC
Tried CM 10.1.3 but no signal even with patched modem MG4.
This is really frustrating lol. I got the S3 to play with roms and now it's over?
Any other ideas ppl on what I could do for this?
~ RazorMC
This is rather an EFS problem than CSC.
Read the EFS threads.

This is rather an EFS problem than CSC.
Read the EFS threads.

One thing I came across was to downgrade efs from v2 to v1 using the rescue firmware. I don't know if that is safe or will it even work.

Install Samsung kies 3 from here
http://www.samsung.com/uk/support/usefulsoftware/KIES/
Run kies then go to Tool > Firmware Upgrade and Installation
Follow the on screen instructions, this should completely reset the phone to a working condition.
MK6 is stable
Try to use MK6 complete suite, then apply MK6 patched modem and kernel not only patched modem. I don't know why people say flash MG4 modem, it will never work alone. You must need patched kernel to make it work or use ariza patch in older releases.

I prefer Odin over Kies any day. It's better for flashing imo.
Point is, I can use stock 4.3 rom without any problems, but my issue is that I can no longer change to non-TW roms, esp KK.

Gonna try this now. I'm aiming for KK roms, so I guess Ariza won't help me here.
PS: I can get stock 4.3 without any problems. The signal problem occurs in non-TW roms only. I wanted signal on a 4.4-based rom.

can you tell me what error is thrown????
(i) you have CWM r8?
(i) download a cwm flashable MG4 Modem, looks like your phone has an EFS issue (had this issue once).

I don't get any signal on KitKat roms. IMEI is empty and baseband is unknown in "About" section. That is my issue.
Stock 4.3 works fine for me
I've tried MG4 and MK6 modem and restoring efs via Philz Recovery 6.07.9 but no luck. I get a network signal that keeps dropping most of the time. This is strange because I haven't come across this problem before. Everytime I have to flash stock via Odin.
I need to find out why this happens so I can help others if they have the same issue.
EFS is ok and not damaged at all. The problem is that the system can't read the EFS, but I can't figure out what I need to do to get it to work.

are custom 4.3's working fine mate tried any????
[SOLVED]
Problem: Upgraded to official 4.3 and since then I have not been able to get network signals on 4.4-based roms. Stock 4.3 works fine.
Solution: Installed stock 4.1.2 (even though people said it doesn't work). Lost my signal and IMEI became 0049. Then I installed the patched MG4 modem and got imei and signal back. Then upgraded to Resurrection Remix rom (without GApps first) and still had signal.

Glad u found a fix
Sent from my GT-I9300 using XDA Free mobile app
Hi,
I'm in the exact same situation, stock 4.3 work's fine but every time i flash some 4.4 rom, i lost imei / baseband (generic imei and unknown baseband) and the phone is just useless.
After i flashed a 4.4 rom and lost signal, i tried to flash every modem / patched modem that i could find on xda but no luck.
Any ideas of a method that would allow me to flash any 4.4 or 5.0 rom without losing imei / baseband ??
Thx
As you found this long dead thread why not try the solution they found?

Because I cannot get my imei / baseband back after flashing the modem on top of 4.1.2.
So I was wondering if there's anything else to try in my situation (stock tw 4.3)
Anyway, Thx for your help...
