hello, I was on darkys rom v9.5, was having serious problems with battery drain, and occasionally device would swich off by itself.
So i decided to try stock 2.2.1, its fast, battery is a lot better, BUT i have no data connection. I still can make calls Gps and wifi but no data connection. I used a european firmware and flashed the eurpean modem on there by mistake. I'm downloading an australian version of 2.2 and gonna try just the modem baseband from that, while remaining on 2.2.1. hope it works!
My question is does anyone know the best baseband firmware (quickest, most efficient on battery) to use in australia? .... maybe post a link
my network is virginmobile if that helps.
get on to Darky 10.1 extreme edition. Its a 2.3.3 rom will be 10 times better than 2.2, i use ZSJPG modem and is good in melbourne.

Hi all,
Just wanted some feedback from anyone with the Bell Mobility I9000M that has flashed JVH. How are you liking the update?
As well:
Is 850Mhz supported? If not can we flash another modem over to enable 850? How has the reception been compared to JL2?
How is the battery life compared to 2.2 Roms? I am currently on a Doc 2.2 JS8 Rom and get about 2 days with moderate use.
Thanks!
JVB was really good, needed to preform the 850 fix or flash a new modem (I always flash ugkc1) bettery was pretty good
JVH I just flashed and modem needs same as JVB fix or flash of an 850 default... can't say for battery yet, most are saying it takes some calibration on JVH... GPS fix is best I have ever had.
I was Doc 9.5 moved to Doc 10 rc6, moved to simply honey now on juwe... liked doc 10 the least.
works fine here. JVH with KC1 modem
Hello all,
I recently rooted my Bell Galaxy s and flashed speedmod-k13e-500hz so now my phone is pretty fast and smooth but would like to improve my constant low signal issue and choppy phone calls ( also my batt life has decreased since rooting and applying speedmod with lagfix enabled and have cleared batt stats in cwm) Im on stock UGKC1 and am wondering if i can fix my issues. I would also like to flash 2.3.3 but wonder which rom/modem combo would be best for me and also a litlle how to since i believe i need gingerbread bootloader but am a little confused.
Thanks in advance for anyone willing to help or point me in the right direction.

I find KC1 modem works really well... If you are having issues with that modem try JK4 or JL2 or the telus modem (TLJ or something) first 2 are both older versions of Bell Modems... as for 2.3.3, I have used simply honey, Juwe, GingerReal and current flashing Darky.
So far in order I like:
Juwe - JVH
Simply Honey - JVH
GingerReal - JVO
Darky - JVH (unkown, but loved the froyo version)
I always flash KC1 modem with gingerbread
I think the JVo modem is the best so far, but you can test which is the best for your region and phone.
Exactly, the JVO modem in the Toronto area is garbage, but probably really good in other places. Your 'default' modem is probably always a safe bet
Thanks for the replies. I will compare JVO to KC1 and see which one performs better. I just bought an Incredible S and seems to be getting better reception than the SGS in general.
Update! Mobile AP just appeared after 2 reboots!
New issue... no outgoing voice on any calls incoming or outgoing..???
system will not let me post on the Dakry post in captivate.... Soooo
Upgraded from stock to 2.2.1 to Darky's... Question is:
Does Gingerbread or Darky's have the Mobile AP. I loved this when driving on the road with the kids.. they would access the internet from the laptops or psp's.. I do not see this option on this version.
Thanks.
Also Best Modem? i am in st louis, AT&T, and want the best modem.
Any help is greatly appreciated!

Does it matter which modem i have installed? i have the stock one that came with Darky's captivate version:
I897 showing GT-I9000,
2.3.3,
Baseband: I9000ugjk4,
Kernal 2.6.35.7-I900xwjvh-cl184813,
Build 10.1 Darky rom
I use JK4 and im in new england. You might want to try JL2, JL3, or i think JK3 if there is one
I'm experiencing incredibly slow WIFI since upgrading a ROM and wondered if there is anything I can do about. 200k down - 20k up and pings anywhere from 600ms to 1500ms. It also fails and reconnects.
Could the problem be related to the modem that was installed with the ROM? I'm unsure is this effects wifi speed? 3G is fine and running as it normally would.
If it isn't the modem what is the nest way of diagnosing issues with WIFI? what should I try re-installing / overwriting?
It's one niggle in a very stable smooth ROM.
I'm running the following if this helps anyone;
Phone model is a GT-I9000
firmware - 2.3.4
baseband I9000XXJVQ
kernel - 2.6.35.7-I9000XXJVQ-CL281085 Ficetobeast #darkcore_2.9.2_JVQ
Build Number - DarkyROM JVQ v10.2

try a different kernel as i do believe wifi drivers are contained within the kernel
Many thanks. Is the modem part of the Kernel then? Should I try the darkyrom site to see if they have a different kernal for their ROM?

no, the modem is seperate, some people say modem effects wifi, others refute this...from personal experience i have found quite big differences with kernels, so yes, try on darkys thread for suggestions for alternative kernels
I have a Bell (Unlocked running on Telus) I9000M SGS and I have tried many different ROMs to try to get the GPS to work, but there is always something about the ROM that makes me change.
I have tried ICS as well, but that didn't work at all. I have tried ROMs from Europe (JVR and JVS) and while the GPS did work, the phone didn't have the reception it should have had. I am now back on stock GB 2.3.3 - UGKG3.
Has anyone ever solved the GPS problem with the Bell ROMs? Has anyone used any other ROM that worked as well as the stock ROM, but with working GPS? For those with an I9000M, what is the best ROM/kernel you have used.
Another thing, I have had the M/B replaced due to the dreaded internal memory problem and with the non-existent GPS and the lack of Android updates to Canada, will you get another Samsung phone? I would love the Note, but can I trust Samsung?
Thanks for the info,
Ian
I have a i9000m through lleb and I have been using this modem i9000 ugjl2 and my gps is perfect.
And if your using google map I also find if you change yout scripts from N-America to europe you'll also get a faster gps find.

Best combination in my opinion
Etc/gps.conf then edit n.america.or whatever it says there and replace with europe.pool
