Here are my results:

DL09: 1145 Kbps Down 550 Kbps Up

EA28: 1626 Kbps Down 815 Kbps Up

ED01: not tested

ED03: 887 Kbps Down 439 Up*

*this was the best I could get with ED03. The average was actually 500-700 most of the time.

This was on two bars of use, phone set down. An important note: for me, dialing *228 option 2 actually DOES have an effect. For most tests, the average improvement was around 200 Kbps better on down, less on up. This is every time I tried it. On EA28, I was getting around 800 Kbps, but after *228, i was getting above 1400 every time on down.

I'm not sure why EA28 is so much better on down for me, but the other poster seems to have had better results with it as well. I wonder if ED01 and ED03 are capped, or there's some kind of adjustment that causes the difference.

I used the speedtest.net ookla app. I changed servers from close to far, and used Atlanta as a base line server. EA28 did the best on all of them.

I don't know what else is improved on ED01/ED03. I tested GPS on EA28, and it connects fine inside. So for me, I've reupdated everything and I'm sticking with EA28.
[Fascinate Android Development] abrixxxx:
This really needs to be stickied.

Went from ED01 to DL09 to EA28 to ED03 with absolutely no problems.

Might have taken me five minutes.

Thank you OP for the thread/sources for everything.
[Fascinate Android Development] DaleV:
Tried this, wow!! So easy! Sorry I didn't ask first but I included a link to your thread on my unbrick your phone thread along with imnuts ed03 stock rom. Now they can recover and get right back to current without those forever ota's

[Fascinate Android Development] comradesven:
OK, I haven't exactly been as responsive as I could be to questions, so I'll try now.

Many people, including me, have done just that.

Quite. This is left over from the original OTA update script - I didn't take it out in case mounting the existing system partition on the flash was necessary. It is not. (However, the newest build of CM7, using mtd to access the flash, seems to be incompatible, so I have more testing to do.)

Well, yes, pretty much. You can look at the script to see what's going on. A modem patch file is copied to the phone and the phone is commanded to flash it as a modem_delta, but apparently the phone doesn't work properly (goes into recovery) unless you reboot afterwards. I suspect it is a low-level function that takes these files and applies them to the modem. Interestingly, it appears that flashing multiple modem_deltas in the proper order at the same time works too. Going from DL09 radio to ED03 only requires one CWM flash!

Well it's not like you need my "permission" to link to the thread. I haven't done anything amazing, just isolated the parts we need from the OTAs and packed them up nice and pretty. But yeah, I can do an Odin to stock with reformatting, flash CWM, flash these zips, load a nandroid/flash a ROM and be up and running in just 10 or 15 mins. It has definitely saved me a lot of time, and I'm glad I can help others save time too.
[Fascinate Android Development] comradesven:
BTW, I know there are a few people who are having problems flashing from EA28 to ED03. I have no idea why it fails, because it works for the rest of us. The only thing I can suggest is Odining to stock with reformatting and receiving the OTA updates from Verizon. (Use the Atlas 2.2 pit when reformatting.) Naturally, checking the reformat box in Odin is something that should not be taken lightly, but flashing the proper full Odin tar with reformat tends to fix a lot of things in my experience.
[Fascinate Android Development] fitti28:
I Went from ED01 and followed the directions ODIN to DL09 the flashed to EA28, then flashed to ED03 with absolutely no problems.

Might have taken me five minutes.
[Fascinate Android Development] davey11:
This baffles me...seeing as how odin modem files are like 15 mb and the delta zips are ~206kb. Seems to work fine. Does gps have anything to do with the modem, as my gps is way improved on ed03.
[Fascinate Android Development] chronster:
each of these' performance relies heavily on the area they're used in, correct?
[Fascinate Android Development] deaffob:
Is it just me that compared to EC01, ED03 is bad in terms of net speed and GPS?
[Fascinate Android Development] mastamoon:
These merely apply an update to an in place modem. We cant grab a full stand alone modem w/o an official full system release/leak from VZW.
[Fascinate Android Development] fortesquieu:
currently on ED03 modem and com rom 2.0, any specific way to get to ED04 modem?

thanks
[Fascinate Android Development] jpricesd:
You could Odin the DL09 radio and then use the file linked in the OP to jump to ED04
[Fascinate Android Development] rlrhk:
Any chance we could get a EB01 to ED04 file?
[Fascinate Android Development] davey11:
I was on ed03, I odined back to dl09 then flashed the ed04 delta...took all of 5 mins.
[Fascinate Android Development] sfobrien:
Just flashed up to ED04. All went well, thanks comradesven .
[Fascinate Android Development] pntballer505:
SO ed04? Is it worth it? Just wondering because

I'm pretty content with ED03

Edit: Oh well, did it anyway. Worked great!!
[Fascinate Android Development] rlrhk:
Thanks. I didn't see the ODIN DL09 file. I will just do that.
[Fascinate Android Development] sfobrien:
I wanted it because I still get the incoming call thing every now and then where it shows no call but the caller leaves a voicemail. It is supposed to correct that, we will see.
[Fascinate Android Development] davey11:
You guys know the mentality with new software stuff....if its new its better so I want it now.

Thats mostly the reason I got it lol
[Fascinate Android Development] dnoyeb:
throughout the day i called my cell from my desk phone... normally it would ring on the 6-8th rings on the ed01/ed03 radios. now i'm getting it on the 2-3rd ring. didn't miss any of my test calls either, whereas i would miss at least 1-2 out of 10 normally in my office.

so far, i'm digging it for that part. time will tell of course.

at the office on my 3g extender i got a consistant 220 1450/450 speed. at the house i'm pleasantly surprised and am getting even better around 146 2001/712.

so i think its speed is fine.
[Fascinate Android Development] sfobrien:
Sounds like it is working well for you. Hopefully at work tomorrow I will get some good results too.
[Fascinate Android Development] calebv2:
Wow this worked so perfect thank you
[Fascinate Android Development] Skrazz:
For what it's worth, flashed as instructed to ED04 modem, and just broke 2000 on my download speed for the first time ever. Comrade, your work is masterful.

Have a question, Im on stock edo1 2.2 froyo(rooted/debloated), currently running cwm 2.5... Does anybody have the link to upgrade to cwm 3.0.8 or whatever the best one is? Also do I have to flash the dlo9 via odin, or can I just flash the edo1 to edo4 zip thru cwm? Thx!!

edit* ok so I updated to cwm 3.0.8 thru rom manager, now it comes up E: unknown volume for path?? phone works fine, but now I cant restore backups or intall anything??
[Fascinate Android Development] neozen21:
Odin the CWM 3.X from here... you can even pick the color.. red, blue, purple..

As the post says, if you don't want Vooodoo make sure you have a disable-lagix file in the voodoo folder BEFORE you odin the CWM3.X

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1046905

Once you have CWM.. I would just make sure it works first b4 you try to upgrade the modem..

Once you know CWM works, then Odin the DL09 modem again..

Then boot into CWM right away and flash the ED04 modem..

You must start from DL09.. don't try to skip a step or ...

Good luck!
[Fascinate Android Development] droidstyle:
Ok well I went back to cwm 2.5.x and everything is good. I went ahead and installed the edo1 to edo4 zip from cwm 2.5.x after doing some research and finding out it supports both amend and edify script. Everything installed fine and now it shows my baseband is version edo4.
[Fascinate Android Development] droidstyle:
Thx for the reply!!!!!
[Fascinate Android Development] landshark68:
Get rid of rom manager! It does not work with the Fascinate.
[Fascinate Android Development] fitti28:
Yo Land have you went to ed04 yet? if so do you see much difference from ed03?
[Fascinate Android Development] droidstyle:
Yep I did, thx for the reply!!
[Fascinate Android Development] droidstyle:
I cant comment on edo3, but I have noticed slower 3g speeds switching from edo1 to edo4...

edit* Ok so I have flased every modem and to me edo1 seems the fastest. Going off of speedtest.net, edo3 scores the best download speed on 3g, but the upload speed is slower than ed01.Also edo4 is terrible imo, 3g drops in and out, not to mention it spends half of its time on 1x.
[Fascinate Android Development] lord dredd:
hey folks

so i have heard so many good things about ed04

atm i am on stock debloated ed01 , stock kernal . rooted with SU and red CWM

so i guess i just need to get the ed01 to ed04 file and thats it ?:)

waiting for the reply

Edit

Ok so I updated to ed04 via the ed01 to ed04 file. It flashed alright.

No doubt that the speeds are good

But the battery drain is faster as well.

any comments ?
[Fascinate Android Development] DeezNotes:
For a while now, I've had issues with bluetooth calling when I hang up a call from my car. Yesterday on ED04 for the first time I made 3 calls and none of them crashed my phone like they used to.

Thank you.
[Fascinate Android Development] kuronosan:
Was having extreme issues with dropped calls and "auto-tuning" sound. After I reset to DL09 and flashed to ED04, I haven't had a single call issue. I love you, OP.
[Fascinate Android Development] heffzilla:
Anyone notice terrible 3g reception with ED04, followed instructions to the letter, tried it with latest EF and ComRom. I even had some extra time last night so I odin'd back to dl09 and did the OTA....same problem, it's terrible for my phone. ED01 worked realy well though FWIW
[Fascinate Android Development] anon_72:
Has anyone had any success flashing up to the ED04 modem while on cm7?

edit: ive tried it coming from dl09 with no luck, dont know if its the orange recovery that the newest cm7 has?
[Fascinate Android Development] kuronosan:
You have to flash ED04 before you flash CM7.
[Fascinate Android Development] dnoyeb:
Exact opposite for me.
[Fascinate Android Development] kuronosan:
Yea, I have to say the reception with ED04 has been the best of all radios.
[Fascinate Android Development] ggt1_02:
I have to agree. The signal around me isn't too good but have noticed a difference. Monday at work will be the true test.

I did the dl09 odin then the dl09 to ed04 and it went smooth. Thanks op
[Fascinate Android Development] BIBUBO BCJ:
What's new in ED04 ?

- Bad 3G speed but performance increases ?

- Weak signal but better battery life ?
[Fascinate Android Development] rileycat:
Can't get ED04 or any other to install

I've followed the instructions and was able to flash the DL09 Radio through Odin.

When I go into Rom Manager (, I select the file to flash. In this case the DL09 to ED04 CWM modem delta.

When Rom Manager cycles into the boot screen there is no option to select the file from the SD card. The only option is to install Update.zip from SD card.....

My Fascinate is rooted. I previously had the original Motorola Droid and installed a number of custom ROM's. There was always an option to select a file from the SD card to install...but not with this Fascinate.

Background: ROM manager V4.3.1.5

Firmware 2.2.1

Build SCH-I500-ED01

Baseband Si500.04 F.DL09

Any suggestions on how to get DL04 installed?
[Fascinate Android Development] fortesquieu:
Do not use Rom Manager. Just boot to your recovery manually.
[Fascinate Android Development] rileycat:
Boot to recovery manually?

Not clear on how to do this?
[Fascinate Android Development] fortesquieu:
I think you probably have a wrong recovery flashed on Rom Manager.

Which ROM are you on? Do you have Voodoo on? Make sure you have a recovery that is NOT from Rom Manager.

Then shut down your phone. Hold volume up and down, while press the power button, you should be on the recovery now.
[Fascinate Android Development] rileycat:
Disregard...I figured it out

Not very intuitive!
[Fascinate Android Development] allcity187:
It took me about five minutes to odin to Dl09 then flash Dl09 to eb04, nice!
[Fascinate Android Development] lord dredd:
well ED04 seems better in 3G speeds , but i donno the battery drain is faster and the signals are kinna not stable at all.

anyone else noticing this ?

This was just covered on page 10-11. Rom manager don't work and u need atleast the red recovery cwm 2.5.1.x. I tried flashing ed01 to edo4 and it was glitchy. I flashed the dlo9 thru odin, then the dlo9 to edo4 file (thru red recovery) and it seems to work mumuch better. I advise to not take shortcuts and flash the dlo9 first before patching any other modem file.
[Fascinate Android Development] droidstyle:
I tried it and it seems to work, until u actually flash dlo9 first then the edo4 file and realize how much less glitchy things are. If u read back a few pages u will see my comments on loss of signal and 3g speeds. That all was cured by flashing dlo9 first!
[Fascinate Android Development] Azazel0:
Flashing modem from CWM always fails with Status 7

I am able to Odin the DL09 modem just fine, but haven't been able to update the modem from there, either to EA28, ED01, or ED04. I've tried "CwM Voodoo Lagfix Recovery v2.5.1.x" and latest CWM from Rom Mgr (since that works with ComRom 2.0, my eventual goal).

It stalls for 5 minutes, then says:

script aborted (no error message)E:Error in /sdcard/DL09toEA28_modemdelta.zip

(Status 7)

Installation aborted.
​

After rebooting, it says that baseband is at EA28, but I don't trust it since the patch failed, so I Odin back to DL09, leaving me with a frankenbuild Firmware UKB 2.0, Baseband EA28, Kernel 2.6.32.9, Build ED01. Surely the firmware/kernel/build doesn't affect flashing the modem? I've had this trouble before when I was on stock DL09 anyway.

It seems like this "Status 7" error is rare, I haven't seen many people mention it, and no solutions. I don't know if it's a problem with my phone itself, since OTA updates and CWM updates that touch the modem always fail.

Odin seems to always work though, so is there any way to Odin myself to DL01/DL04? Also, is it true that since these modem deltas use Edify scripting that they require CWM 2.5?

thanks all!
[Fascinate Android Development] landshark68:
I did go to ED04 using these files. I'm getting 3 or 4 bars on my signal strength meter more consistently. No one has told me yet they called me and I haven't gotten the call, but that doesn't really prove anything as they may just not have told me yet. Calls actually seem to be a bit clearer too and the phone just seems to be a bit snappier, although I didn't think modem affected that. I also now get consistently good 3g data connection in the room where my computer is. I used to have to go to another room to download new apps or updates to apps, especially if they were a good sized file.
[Fascinate Android Development] landshark68:
Read above warnings about rom manager not working with the Fascinate. You cannot use the CWM you get from rom manager. Use this CWM to flash the modem delta files and you should have no problems:

[Fascinate Android Development] sfobrien:
Guess you might be one of the lucky ones. I flashed it couple times, missed a couple more calls (one called from my house phone and watched it do nothing) and finally got rid of it.
[Fascinate Android Development] Azazel0:
Thanks landshark, I missed that warning. I was mostly using the cwm-recovery-ALL.tar posted on XDA earlier. Unfortunately, the navenedrob-nemesis2all-OTBv2-CWM3-recovery didn't do any better, it still failed with "Status 7" after trying DL09toEA28 or DL09toED04. Is EB01 still the latest leaked modem? I could load that from Odin and limp along I guess.
[Fascinate Android Development] landshark68:
EC01 is the latest leaked modem. It was taken from the Mesmerize, but works fine:

dos anyone has ED03 FULL OR UPDATE VERSION.....THANKS
[Fascinate Android Development] SotYPL:
ED04 didn't fix missed call issue for me. I just had one call that didn't ring at all and it was from my other shared vzw line. I have checked my online vzw account and it showed this outgoing call but my phone didn't show anything. I've had good coverage at that time. I'm going back to EA28, it was working the best for me so far.
[Fascinate Android Development] joe zack:
i was woundering if there any ed_03 radio.zip avialable..................thankx
[Fascinate Android Development] landshark68:
There are no stand alone zip or ODIN flashable ED03 radio files. The steps in this thread are the only ways to get to the ED03 radio.
[Fascinate Android Development] landshark68:
You can get the ED03 ROM, kernel, and recovery in this thread, but not the modem:

[Fascinate Android Development] landshark68:
Changelog? How do you do a changelog for a radio?
[Fascinate Android Development] Azazel0:
Hey landshark, I've been running with the EC01 radio you recommended since yesterday, seems to be doing fine: no missed calls (that I know of), up/download speeds seem reasonable. Thanks for your help! For those having trouble getting to an EDxx radio, this seems to be the interim solution.

Now, this might be crazy talk since I don't know the nature of the patches, but since we have a leaked unencrypted DL09, and patches to get it to ED04, can we apply the patches to DL09 NOT on the phone to give us an unencrypted ED04? Are they simple binary diffs?
[Fascinate Android Development] Robtao:
Interesting idea. Seems like it might be possible for those who understand the syntax.

[Fascinate Android Development] joe zack:
i mean bottom line i dont understand this step

2.USE CWM to flash the appropriate zip (BTW, they use Edify scripting) to copy the desired modem delta file (patch) to your phone. Make sure the zip's filename indicates that it is a match for your currently installed modem!

how to copy to the phone rename the cwm and copy to sd card or download via odin? either way some body can expalin please thank you......
[Fascinate Android Development] landshark68:
You have to flash CWM 3.0 in ODIN, then after the flash, boot directly to CWM by pulling USB cord from phone, putting battery back in, hold volume up, volume down, and power buttons and let go of all three as soon as you see the samsung logo flash on the screen for the second time.

ok sharky68 i did its now flashed..........but still my problem is want to match the

baseband version is............ ED04 AND

build number is.................. sch-i500-DL09

THERE IS WAY TO MTACH BOTH BASEBAND AND BUILD NUMBER

THANK YOU ONE MORE TIME.................
[Fascinate Android Development] fortesquieu:
Baseband is modem/radio, which you have already updated to ED04.

Your build number is your current ROM.
[Fascinate Android Development] joe zack:
I want to thank all the guys in the forum for help and support especially sharky68..........thank you all yao.............
[Fascinate Android Development] landshark68:
I thought you said you wanted to end up on ED03, not ED04. Since you now have the ED04 radio and you want baseband and build versions to match I would recommend flashing the full DL09 file in ODIN and letting your phone OTA up to full ED04. If that is what you want just flash this file in ODIN:

http://adrynalyne.us/files/stuff/CI500_VZW_DL09_ECLAIR.tar.md5

then accept the two OTAs first to EA28 then to ED04

If you want your baseband and build to match at ED03, that will take more work.
[Fascinate Android Development] joe zack:
what if the phone is not active still there is a way to match the baseband with build number? dosnt mater either EDO3 OR EDO4

THANK YOU
[Fascinate Android Development] landshark68:
If the phone is not active I think with what is available in the forums you will only be able to match up ED03 baseband and build. But if it is not active I don't think there is anything you will be using the phone for where the baseband and build matching up is going to matter.
[Fascinate Android Development] joe zack:
Ok will settel for ed03 ?please can you guide me or tell me again the instruction really appreciated thank you
