Currently using the JK3 Modem in the US but will be traveling through BElgium & Netherlands soon with a pay as you go sim from Mobile Vikings.
Can I still use this modem or do i need to flash to the JMF or JPZ modem while in Europe?
Thanks.

Hi guys
I'm running a Telstra (australia telco) tab on Overcome 1.4.5 custom ROM.
This carrier has an 850Mhz 3G network just like AT&T or Rogers over in N America.
I am unable to connect 850Mhz in HSDPA, only in GSM.
I have tried both JMF modem and stock Telstra modem (i.e. stock from carrier), same issue. If I force the 'WCDMA' setting I cannot see the 850 network at all.
Anyone else running Overcome and using 850Mhz 3G? Help appreciated
i have the same tab, and im on overcome 1.4.5 still, grab the modem.bin from rotohammers thread, by memory its the i9000 modem, ive been using that and its been working perfectly.
cool, and you're on NextG?
BTW I've tried locking it to 850Mhz via @#2263#, and it is still choosing the 2100 network (3Telstra) lol. A guy on whirlpool forum is telling me its a random bug, heard anything about that?
You can get a CWM flashable bell modem at the first post of the overcome thread.
yeah I'm trying that tonight (the JMK modem) cheers @ work now don't have the cable with me...
FWIW the jk3 (typoed jmk above) modem did the trick.
It wasn't included in the overcome 1.4.5 thread but IS on the 1.6 threads, go figure
not sure why the stock carrier modem didn't work? but not fussed

Yes it is the same as the international one.
i am able to flash any i9000 rom on my i9000m and it works fine...
I've flash darky's Roms (from 9.5 up) and now i'm currently using Dark Core 2.7.3_4 JVP running the F1 JVP V9 ROM and love it.
What did you need to know?
And i9000t = i9000?

For GT-I9000M, any rom would most likely work, but you might get issue with the modem.
If so, do what's stated here:

and you'll be able to run almost any modem
How can I find out what is the original bell mobility froyo rom? I want to reverse my phone back to bell's settings.
Can someone please help!
Bells firmware is KC1
Sent from my GT-I9000M using XDA Premium App
The I9000m is very similar with the exception being that it uses 850mhz band umts and GSM rather than 900mhz.
this is why you might have issues with the modem. International version modems support 1900mhz band so you may not notice the issues immediately as bell runs both 1900 and 850 but its best to at least flash a modem that uses what is available. Some people think the 850 band is better but unless you check to see what band is in use all the time who really cares as long as it is available.
As for the firmware. As mentioned the most current is known as KC1 which is the last 3 digits of the whole thing. You can find it at samfirmware.com (you need a username to download - they seem OK - no spam) and then flash it via ODIN (search for 1 of about 18000 tutorials here or see the one at samfirmware.com)
Good luck all.

hi everyone,
I'm looking for an Australia modem file for my i9000T, i'm using I9000XWJVH, baseband: I9000SRJv1. If any one have that file can i please have it?
I flashed my phone to some Europe firmware long time back. Now i realize my 3g signal is dropping while others remain connected.
Here are the ones i have used
DVJP9
UGJL2
UGKC1
I use the some of the modems in this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=9874879
It is from the captive forum but most of the modems came from the galaxy s and most of it came with the 850 Mhz 3G data band that use the T models.
just try a couple ones modems to see wich are the best on your region.
Hi,
Can someone inform me which modem is the best one to use for the i9000t version for telstra in Australia, as I have looked around and there are so many recommendations which has got me confused
Try googling "modem dance". This is a process which will allow you the use of all bands with any modem.
I am using the latest JVT modem with 850 NZ Telecom band.

Hi all,
I have the Canadian model (Bell Mobility GT-P1000M) with rooted Froyo 2.2, and I would like to upgrade to JB CM10. I've been looking at some of the posts, so I'm informed, but I still have a few questions:
- If I'm doing a full install, do I need to patch the protected bootloader first (Page 3)?
- Which modem should I use, T-Mobile or AT&T? (or can I just pick one and then use the proper modem from the modem list sticky after?)
If you’re a North American T-MOBILE Tab user, look for the “T-Mobile Modem” folder and select the “modem.bin” file.
If you’re an AT&T (USA), TelCel (Mexico – if you’re not using the GTP1000L Tab) and Telstra (Australia) user, look for the “JK3 Modem” folder and select the “modem.bin” file. It doesn’t matter if you prefer another modem, you can flash another modem, once you’re done…

Getting ICS on the Bell Mobility GT-P1000M
Thanks,
Vic.
You are on Froyo, so apparently you need to root and check if your bootloader is protected. If so, then patch.
Is bell using 850MHz for 3g? If so, you use at&t modem.
T-mobile modem only for t-mobile tab.
Jpz modem for the rest.

Thanks... I installed it using the AT&T and left it like that. I don't have a data plan for the tablet so I don't really care.
