I've been using some DOC ROMS and you had the possibility to flash other modems like JPP , JPD or JPM to gain better performance in signal or whatever , now I'm not using this DOC ROM anymore , instead of that I just use the stock XWJPA with JPP modem.
Now the question is : Is it possible to get other modems aswell on a rom like this , and how do you do that? also via CWM?

I'm sure there's a way to do this with odin, but I don't know it since I haven't had a windows box to play with in a while. You can, however, do this with heimdall. The command should look something like this:
heimdall flash --pit <your_pit_file> --modem <your_modem_file>

hey guys , i have flashed several rom and i really like the look and feel of the darky's rom however i have really bad reception issue. sometimes at home where i usually have full bar i have no signals at all , or last night i was traveling to Oklahoma city with my friend who is running captivate on stock rom and he had full bar while i had no service at all ! any idea what i'm doing wrong ?
Usually better to ask in the darky thread , but anyways.
Did you flash back to stock and then upgrade to darkys or did you upgrade on top of a previous rom? If the latter, flash back to stock and reinstall.
If the former, try a different modem. I am not using the modem or kernel that came with darkys rom. I am using the kernel with speedmod and ugjl2 modem and so far I have great reception. Of course that isn't saying much as I always have great reception using my cell device (can't think of its name atm.)

You are running the I9000 version and not the captivate port. This alone wont cause problems if you have the reoriented kernel but the jpy modem you have will. I believe it does not have the 850 band. Flash a different modem from the modem thread in the development section and you should be good to go.
If im mistaken please forgive as its 7:30am and I still haven't slept yet.

thanks for your reply ! well yea i did one click odin to stock 2.1 and then flash this using this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=868262
and http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=808286 flashing xcaliburinhand's latest reoriented kernel (odin version) with voodoo (I9000_reoriented_v2.3.0) so i'm not sure what is the issue here ... can you all guide me what modem should i use ? i was actually thinking about the same thing because i use to have a phone that didn't have 850 bad and i had this kind of issue ! so any help of how and where to get a modem to flash will be greatly appreciated !
I personally use JK4. A lot of people find that JL3 works better for them. Either way at the moment these are the top two modems available. Both can be found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=9134296&postcount=2 and are flashable via CWM.
Also next time you are going to flash a version of Darky's just use this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=890429 or any one that ytt3r starts because he ports them over to the captivate and you don't have to worry about messing with kernels or anything not working properly.
thanks i'll try it next week , since i'm running Axura 2.2 and so far i like it
Hey guys I'm really new at this, can some someone explain what a Kernel/Modem is. I know what the Kernel is used for but, there are some many different Kernels that people use and I have no idea on how to pick which one is right for me. Currently I'm running Cognition 3.04 with Stock Kernel with Voodoo Lag fix.
a modem deals with signal and data speeds (different modems work better for people in different places) i9000 modems can only be used with i9000 roms and vice versa for the captivate roms (cognition)
modems thread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=835272)
a kernel deals with drivers (not 100% sure) oc/uv (overclock, undervolt), free ram, and tweaks that make it faster/smoother.
gb's kernel thread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=887315)
seitron's kernel thread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=828052)
if you want more clarifications just ask
ok so with my current configeration, ,I can run any captivate based rom right?(im running cog3.04) and say I wanted to try those i9000 roms I have to change my modem not my kernel, correct?

When you flash a rom it will change the kernel and modem
Any i9000 will come with compatible modem and kernel
Oh ok I see so just flash the rom, thanks for the help, greatly appreciated.

Is it samsung way of releasing firmware with no details as to what new is added or what improvements have been done?
I am using I9003 & kies tell me an update is available with no info what so ever about the FW. I even tried updating but it failed.
Is there any official source on samsung firmware so I could read as to what is new in PDA:KB2/Phone:KA5/CSC:KA6
Short answer.... No

Is JQ1 better than JL2 for Bell? I've been out of the loop with modem updates over the last while because I've been using JL2.
I don't know if it is better. The GPS locked almost instantly. Battery can't be commented on yet because I haven't used it long enough. One thing other people are saying is that they aren't getting any reception when they leave major cities so I depends on your location I guess. I'm with bell but in Toronto so for me it hasn't given me any problems.

can you double check if your 850mhz band still works?

You can flash darky rescue center. Download it. All instructions are in darky zip file.

Nowhere near bricked... But you have to follow directions now.
Flash either a 2.1 or 2.2 rom. The rom has to be 3 files. You need to flash with a 512 pit and re-partition.

Guys , iv'e noticed that my battery'd draining on JVQ modem so, i would like to change it to JVR but even after using the jetpack rom tool,SGS kernel flasher the baseband remains same it says "XXJVQ" . Any ideas on changing the modem??
I9000 on JetpackROM v4 + Semaphore v 1.7 JVS.
Not sure, but doesn't Odin support only modem flashes too?
So, if you download eg. Stock JVR rom from samfirmware and flash only PHONE-packet, it could work.

its because the build.prop didn't changed
i got it fine now battery's good!
but i will do a flash when it get's messed!
I've, got same problem modems only works in gsm mode even then it's bad tried jvs on jar now no better you can just flash using Odin just choose which ever modem pack you want but it no helped me battery is incredible 3 days and still got 25% hope some one can sort this great rom fast as well
