Hello XDA users!
This is a question addressed mainly to my fellow Romanians that own a Galaxy S. I'm trying to figure out which modem works best in terms of signal strength and battery drain on Vodafone? I know there's a global Vodafone modem driver and i've tried it for a week but it didn't seem to satisfy me.
From your experience which modem did you find best for signal and battery life?
P.S.: I'm currently running MIUI v5 (XDA version) and ZSJPG (yeah i know it's for Asia).
hy,
i have use JVO, now i have change with zsjpg and it's working like a charm, netwk vdf, running on GB+Darky's 10.1

what is the battery drain on you ?
Whatt app do u use ? Wifii ? And if yes.. how much time ? setup in @g or 3G ? Mobile data connection always working ? More details please
I have been using JVO since the official Kies release in May. I did not encounter any problems with it and the GPS performace improved significantly.
I'm on JVP rom with JVQ modem .. battery drain is about 1% per hour with everything on (wifi, bluetooth etc) with 2 push emails (gmail and exchange).
Pretty good I would say.
I'm not on vodafone but I don't think there is any noticeable difference.
Jvp rom ??? Maybe a rom that had initialt jvp and u flashed it after with other...
What type of android r u using ? 2.2.1...2.3.3 or 2.3.4 ?

You should try www.romkitchen.org ...
I've cooked (quite a while ago) a JVP (gingerbread 2.3.4) based rom and I've played with different modem in it. Now I'm on JVQ modem (on the same JVP base rom) and everything is fine.
I'm using BUJP5 on galnet's v5.2
ICS ROM modem
Can anybody share his experience with ICS battery and witch modem is using on Vodafone Romania?
I used JVU and JW4 but is draining battery like hell when I use 3G data and the phone is getting really hot.
Best modem for Orange Romania or a modem that is good on signal in Romania and kind on the battery?

Try JPG
I have ICS with JVU modem. Call sound good and did not interrupt in Vodafone Romania.
It is very important to have the original IMEI. Otherwise you will have problems with some modems.
All the modems in my signature are working for Romania.
Best battery: JPG.
Best sound: KF1
An up to date recommendation for Vodafone Romania? I'm on a JVU modem (CM10).
Edit: JW4 modem seems the best so far.

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 want to change my modem to a more stable one (better battery, signal etc.) Ive searched the forum and found bujp5 from this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=9724862&postcount=14434

Im using this moden with stock jpy here in Australia and so far it is my favorite for battery life jpy moden killed my battery!

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?
This is how to enable 850mhz band. All credits to Linkness and the Rom Kitchen members

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.
Hello everybody.
This is addressed to my fellow Romanians who have experience in modems.
From all the modems you've tried, what is the best one in terms of signal strength (GSM, Wi-Fi, GPS) and battery drain?
I am currently using Darky's ROM 10.2 RE, with Darkcore 2.9.2 kernel with the default modem - I believe it's XXJVQ -, but I'm not very satisfied by it. Does anybody know a better modem for Romania, especially for the Orange network?

Hi,
I don't really think that the modem is provider optimised, so anything that will work best for German users will work for us
Your Romanian fellew
P.S: 2.9.3 Kernel is out
For me XXJVQ is the best by far. With JVQ I got -50dBm 30 asu signal in Brasov, before JVQ I didn't got signal past beyond 13 asu.
f
and for Serbia?Telenor operater...
THX...i use now JVQ.
a
where can i seewhich modem is the best for signal for Serbia...?
