The items you're indicating above are mostly firmware versions - UCKK2 is what KK2 is short for, which is a numbering code adopted by Samsung (I believe) to indicate what version of Android is in the firmware, what month/year it was released, and what revision number the firmware is.

[Q] Help me find the right radio...please

OK, I'm running Cognition 3.04 with the Speedmod Kernal.
People are telling me they can't understand me on the phone. For what I've learned through flashing over the past few months and reading around, I believe I need a different radio. Am I wrong? If not, can someone point me in the right direction?
I've seena few references to radios on here, but never with a link or a better explanation as to what details I need to look out for.
Thanks for any help.
check out the modem thread. its a sticky in android development.

OK, so should I be looking for modems then? 'Cause I went through that thread and flashed both UCJJ4 and UCJI6 (one at a time of course) but neither fixed the issue.
the problem is not your rom, but your modem, i believe. try jl2, jk4 if you are on i9000 rom.

Hmm...Cognition is made specifically for Captivate...was it wrong to assume is was a i867 ROM?
Is there an easy way to tell on the phone which model my ROM is built for? The "Baseband Version" reads I897UCJI6. Is that a hint?
Thanks for your help guys.
Your problem is you're using an i9000 kernel with a captivate modem. Cog is considered a pure captivate rom, so if you installed speedmod (which is based on an i9000 kernel) you need an i9000 modem. I think JK4 seems to be the most popular

Arg! But I installed the Speedmod Kernel made for Captivate!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=893880
This is so frustrating...I'm trying to not be a newb and figure this stuff out, but things that say they're for i897 aren't...ugh.
Well, I flashed JK4 and it works. So I guess the speedmod for Captivate isn't actually for Captivate.

Things that are for the captivate are for the captivate and the version of the speedmod kernel you flashed from the captivate forum is for the captivate, but...
What everyone is talking about above is what those things were ORIGINALLY designed and built for. In short most things out there were originally built for the i9000 (since AT&T is dragging their feet on releases) and then ported over to the captivate, meaning the code, config, etc. is changed a bit to work with the captivate. So what everyone is saying above is that speedmod started as an i9000 kernel and works best with an i9000 based modem.

[Q]Kernel and ROM based on 2.3.3 official update on the euro galaxy S

im new in this section.
i have a nexus S my self.
but i am asking this,because my GF is getting the galaxy S today/tomorrow.
and i was wondering.
is there any ROM thats beyond the official euro update 2.3.3.
and is as stock as possible?(like the nexus S)
(at first ill let her fidle with touchwis though)
and i also need A kernel with lagfix and a bit of save over-clocking for the official euro update 2.3.3(and/or the rom any one suggested here)
thank you in advance
there are many 2.3.3 custom ROMs available for the SGS, although the SGS does NOT come stock with 2.3.3..
2.3.3 is also not available 'officially' through KIES, but it is available on a website www.samfirmware.com
which is 'leaked' official version.
and finally, EVERY custom Kernel supports lagfix, and majority of them also support Overclocking and Undervolting

my bad lol
anyway you can get a good kernel / lagfix with 2.2.1 and just apply a gingerbread theme, until the update arrives,
if your GF is anything like mine she wont even notice
awww bummer.
the problem with my gf is,she is pretty interested in what my nexus S
and my spica(that she's using for now.until she has the galaxy s) can do.
adn she asks pretty often,can i do that,how do i do this ect.
and mostly my answer is: you need root or thats only with custom kernel/rom.
2.3.3 custom ROMs with close to stock themes

[Q] Froyo based modem on gingerbread?

sorry for being a noob but i just one quick question. I got on a 2.3.3 rom and i wondered if i could flash a froyo modem like jk4 on it?
assuming your gingerbread is running a cmw3 package....

courtesy of gingerstyle rom instructions
If you don't know if you have CWM 3, check the color of the text. If it is orange, then you do have CWM 3. You can use the link in the above post or my sig.
If your text is not orange, then you have CWM 2 and can flash the normal Froyo modems.
I have flashed several Froyo and Gingerbread modems using Continuum 5 RC3 and have had the best luck with Gingerbread ROMs. However, that is based on my phone and yours might be different.
Wow...thats a lot of modem you have...do you have kp1 modem? as it works well in my country...

Questions about Bootloaders, Kernels and Modems

I am new to Galaxy S but have had experience with roms, kernels and radios from a G1.
I started with Samsung 2.2 firmware and rooted it using Cyanogenmod wiki page and flashed the latest MIUI. I know kernels change speed and include Voodoo colours and sound for Galaxy S. I also now radios can change signal and gps accuracy.
1)Are modems the same as radios and if so where do I find a list of them?
2)What is the best bootloader and why does the Gingerbread one not have sd cards work? Also what else doesn't work?
3)How can I check which radio I have and if I flash any bootloaders how do I check that?
Radio, Modem and Baseband are all the same thing. You can check which one you have by going to Settings >About Phone and checking the Baseband Version.
A new modem is easy to flash as a zip file from Recovery and you can find lots of them by searching in the Dev forum, however make sure you flash a modem that is for CM7 since you have Miui installed. For guidence you can search for Modem in the Miui or CM7 thread in the Dev forum.
As for bootloader, there is no way to check which you have, but as you installed Miui directly over 2.2 you should have the froyo bootloaders. CM7 and Miui were designed for froyo bootloaders. Some people say that GB bootloaders have better battery life but if you have GB bootloaders with CM7 you can't access you external SD card and other things may not work properly. I would suggest staying with froyo loaders for now and seeing how it goes.

I have read this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=9579987&postcount=11945
but I don't know if it still JPP is the best radio as this was back in December. For people in the UK what would be the best overall radio?
can anyone answer me which is the best CM7 modem for ORANGE ROMANIA? tks
Try jvp or jpy, I'm on orange uk, insanity cm and they both work fine for me don't forget you need cm7 modem, there are 2 threads in dev for this

About bootloaders
I have a SGS GT-I9000, and following
directions from ROM kitchen, I installed a Froyo 2.2.1 version.
It's I9000XXJPY with 2.6.32.9 [email protected] #22 kernel
and it says Rom kitchen v11.1-ZSJPK.
I wanted to install a Gingerbread version from ROM kitchen as well, but it says I have to make sure I have at least JVH bootloaders. Ummm, do I ? And what to do so i could install a gingerbread to my SGS ?
I installed a 2.2.1 froyo also from ROM kitchen I9000XXJVO with 2.6.32.9 [email protected] #22, build number XWJSD, hoping i'll install newer bootloaders with it.
But, i had problems with messaging so i'm gonna have to revert to previous one.
Do i have proper bootloaders or not and what could happen if i tried to install Gingerbread and don't have proper bootloaders.
Thanks in advance

[Q] What is the difference? JVQ JVK JVP...

my phone says:
Baseband version
19000XXJVQ
Kernel version
....XXJVP...
Build number
GINGERBREAD.XXJVQ
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
1. I want to download something and it says JVQ only. Can I download it?
2. Which one is the best?
3. What is ODEX/DEODEXED?
Sorry I'm noob but I want to learn.
help please
How do I switch to JVP?
First, you need to read more jejeje.
(this is the radio version or "modem")
Baseband version
19000XXJVQ
(this is the kernel. I assume that is because you flash JVP root kernel to make you root in jvq)
Kernel version
....XXJVP...
(this is your android version 2.3.4 jvq compilation)
Build number
GINGERBREAD.XXJVQ
JVH, JVB, JVP, JVQ, JVR etc.... are diferents builds of android. theoretically the more new, it is because it has fewer errors.
Note: if you want to view kernel JVQ, just flash a jvq cf kernel
and which is the best and what is the difference? which is the newest?

newest is jvr and it appears to be closest to a final release as far as I am concerned based on use of the earlier previous versions (jvh, jvo, jvp).
You will find less rom choice for jvr as it is just new: even fewer good kernel options -- over on the development section you will see new posts as developers issue new releases to match the new stock version available.
Many choices for jvq but the basic stock firmware is not as solid as jvr.
Check posters signatures and you can see what people are actually using: no one can say what will be the best for you, only what preference they have and why.
Ok thank you.
where can I find JVQ or JVR?
