Original Modem? - Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey. Would anyone know how I could find out what the original modem was that came with my Cappy from AT&T in Connecticut?
I've installed so many ROMs over the years I've totally list track, lol.
Thanks

Mic issue, people can't hear me :/

I have a captivate from att. I one clicked odin'd to the leaked captivate froyo rom. And flagged the sentiron kernal I think its called. Ever since my mic hardly works and people say they can't hear me. Not too sure if it's the ROM our the kernal, any ideas?

its the kernel combined with the JI6 modem. flash a new modem i9000UGJK3 to replace the JI6 modem.....
if you read the sticky in the dev section about modems, you would see that you cannot combine i9000 kernel and captivate modem....

[Q] SGS Vibrant I9000M upgrade to Gingerbread 2.3.4!

Hi,
Is it possible to upgrade with the recently leaked European Gingerbread 2.3.4 image to the Bell's Vibrant I9000M?
I'm currently running Froyo 2.2, firmware UGKC1. Have downloaded the official 2.3.4 from samfirmware.com and already rooted and unlocked my phone.

It is... i would suggest going this route instead of through the one from samfirmware.
I use darky's ROM. I upgraded to 10.1 (it is 2.3.3), then recently upgraded via CWM to Dark Core 2.7.3 (which has the 2.3.4 GB firmware). Beware that the core is beta at this time, and so far in 2 days i haven't had any real issues on my phone.
www.darkyrom.com, then check the forums.
We are quite in Sync. Co-incidentally I upgraded to Darky's ROM(10.1) about an hour back. I'll give a try to the Beta now. Pls do share your experience with the beta overtime.
Thanx

So far so good... other than my battery. Although i do have a momax 2700mah battery, it only lasted 30ish hours before it died... including using superpower to manage night time usage. I should be getting more than that with this battery (and i have done the reconditioning with the battery since i got it).
Even with 10.1 i got a day and a half or so... but the half day doesn't work for me as i need it for a full day.
Now that i've done one round of recondition on my battery, i'm anxious to see how good the battery will last now.
10.1 works with the JVP kernel fine (at least some of the features for it). I had to upgrade gtalk to the video talk version myself though (although i'm sure it'll be included in the next darkyrom).
Let me know what you think of it...
Hey guys i am also on the I9000M through bell and would love to get the gingerbread on here but the last time i tried i couldnt connect to my 3g for wireless and i couldnt call out or recieve calls please tell me the guide you used because man that gingerbread was fast and smooth.
Right now heres what my phone status is
Model number GT I9000M
Firmware version 2.2
Baseband version I9000UGKC1
Kernel version 2.6.32.9
[email protected] #4
Build number FROYO UGKC1
Thanks in advance for any help
ps my phone is already rooted
you can get gingerbread, but you need to take the extra step of flashing the kc1 modem, or do the 850 band tweak on a euro modem

Do you do the KC1 modem AFTER the GB firmware flash or during?...

I could say after if you using Odin.
But before starting ask yourself what do you really want....
Just the 2.3.4 stock or a custom rom (like Darky's), rooted?, Aply a new theme?

[Q] H data connection gone after kk4

Since installing a kk4 ROM I no longer get H symbol for data connection. Any ideas as to why? I'm on Rogers network with captivate. Thanks
using modem ugkc1
When I switch back to apex. H data shows up again.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I896 using xda premium
Really? This has been known and covered since the first I9000 FROYO Ports.
I9000 modem/kennels offer hsupa
I897 do not.
Sorry for the noob question. So i'm on TRusello effen ROM. Can I change to i9000 kernel and modem?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I896 using xda premium
Not if you wanna boot up...
Firmware has to match kernel for gingerbread, on froyo you could mix I897 firmware with I9000 kernel and modem but on gingerbread it will Get stuck on the kernel splash and go no farther.
^ I honestly didn't realize this. (with Gingerbread that is) Thanks.
Try to see what modem you are using in the apex rom; it will be in the about phone section. Download that modem and flash that over the KK4 rom. Should work. (I had the same problem but with AT&T so i don't know what modem you use)
An I897 modem and an I9000 kernel or vice versa, will cause very awful static during phone calls.
Not true.....Mine works fine!

Wait what? I9000 modem on I897 rom+kernel working fine with no static?
no.. i897 modem....i9000 kernel...(ics beta 1)

Modem: JL3
Kernel: Fugumod i9000
You are running I9000 kernel AND i9000 modem. ICS no clue wth that is so GB rules don't necesary apply. But I promise you it isn't possible to use I9000 modem with out static at the very least.

[Q] I'm confused about bootloaders

Hi,i'm a noob and i don't understand this thing about bootloaders. I have successfully flashed to CM9 (9.1.0 captivatemtd), now i feel like updating to [ROM/MOD] 4.1.1~Jellybean~AoCP CP3~The Collective, but it says it needs Gingerbread bootloaders? prior to flashing to cm9 i had the rogers gingerbread update for my captivate. At the moment i have CM9 (9.1.0) with devil kernel, so how do i get a gingerbread bootloader?or do i already have it?
U have the i896 GB Bootloaders now, since u were updated to Rogers GB firmware before. So u should be good to go.

but since i changed the kernel and i flashed the cm9 9.1.0 rom (i followed the how to flash any rom including ics tutorial btw), wouldn't have my bootloaders have changed?
Not unless u specifically flashed the i897 gb bootloaders in that guide.
And not unless u went and flashed a stock firmware that contains bootloaders.
Bootloaders are not contained in kernels...Or Dev Roms. Just in Stock firmware (unless it states no bootloaders).
Sent from my SGH-I897 using xda premium
i had at one point odin superclicked to stock gingerbread with at&t bootloader and then after with this info
"2.3.3 STOCK! from rogers no changes. DO NOT USE .PIT FILE WITH THIS STOCK! if you need to repartition use 2.2 with pit file then upgrade to 2.3.3 with NO PIT FILE!!!
ALSO, IT CONTAINS BOOTLOADERS!! necessary to upgrade to gingerbread!
this is THE FILE keis used.
The rom below will NOT fix an ATT bootscreen issue, rogers did not change their params.lfs partition so it is not in the rogers keis update. To FIX ATT Bootscreen flash THIS FILE in odin PDA box before or after 2.3.3 stock"
it was a one-click odin again, then from this i went to ics... so am i still ok or should i do something else to make sure?
U r good to go. U have the i896 GB Bootloaders. U can proceed. :thumbup:
Sent from my SGH-I897 using xda premium
could you just explain how i could get other bootloaders and what the point is in changing bootloaders?
To run a Gingerbread firmware u need the GB Bootloaders (as opposed to eclair/froyo boots). And gb bootloaders are backwards compatible...u can run froyo or eclair firmware with them. Also once u have them u don't need to worry about flashing any bootloaders again because of the reasons just stated. And as well Roms such as ICS, JB, CM, etc. may require u to have the gb boots as part of their installation requirements.
If u want the i897 GB Bootloaders, see TRusselo's Guide that is a stickied thread in the q & a forum. He has a link in the OP.
