i had posted in the previous pages that we can use DarkyROM2 Tool to flash modems and kernels.. if u are not sure if its flashable using odin or cwm

As long as you have root and CWM Recovery installed Darkys tool works. All you need is the modem.bin file
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] suilow1991:
Can i know how to get the modem.bin file from the .tar.md5 modem file? or i shall get it else place?
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] xinfinityoO:
that .tar.md5 file can be opened using 7zip or winrar.. if u just remove the .md5 extension from the file name.. its just a compressed file..inside is the modem.bin

KG3 modem clicking sound...

Hello all, Ive tried the kg3 modem with both villainrom 2.3 and villainrom 2.3 lite and litening rom v4.2

It seems to be the kg3 modem itself thats causing a random clicking sound to be heard when you are booting up the phone.

It stops just before either the boot animation kicks in for whatever rom your using or you get into the clockworkmod recovery itself.

Just wondered if others have noticed this and what it might mean? :confused:
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] CamoGeko:

[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] superleeds27:
NELP4 Is from Denmark LPG Rom (3 Branded)
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] marc.knuckle:
i thought i would add a little research to this thread, not too much but just my experience with 3 specific modems.

the background is that recently i have started getting very poor network signal as i believe the closest 3g mast to me is having problems. if i turn to 2g its better as the phone then connects to the closest 2g tower which gives better network signal.

i know that a modem should be left for 2-3 days before judging but i thought that if a modem is currently better than another then that is only likely to stay the same with time as long as they were given the same short period of time.

i used the app network signal info and did 3 5 minute tests for each modem and then averaged the percentage of the signal and also averaged the -dbm also.

i first used the modem i currently had on there, BUKI1

- average percentage was 19%

- average -dbm was -103

both very poor scores

the signal was very jumpy up and down also

i then flashed the custom modem, i think by krs007, M250S

- average percentage was 44.6%

- average -dbm was -90.66

obviously a huge increase

the signal was very steady, hardly changing from that average

lastly i flashed NELP3

- average percentage was 30.66%

- average -dbm was -97.33

better than at first but not as good as M250S

i am now going to let M250S bed in for a few days while keeping my eye on here for how NELP4 performs but so far i have a huge increase in signal in a previously very poor area. as this is also due i believe to the tower having problems, hopefully it will only get better.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] wolfmenace:
Any link to download this modem? :highfive:
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] LenAsh:
I'm fairly certain that M250S simply changes the reported signal strength. In other words the signal bars and ASU levels LOOK very good but are actually not real.

A fudge, you could say. Or con.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] marc.knuckle:
sorry mate but the app Network Signal Info doesnt lie, i took those readings from there not from the phone itself.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] LenAsh:
In that case, why isn't everyone using it? It's been around for months.

My findings differ from yours... you CANNOT get something for nothing. I have a couple of DEAD zones where this modem still reports a cell signal even when none exists.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] CamoGeko:
Why does the guy seem so reluctant to say what changes he made?

... typed by a proud owner of HTC One X 32GB, the best HTC Android device so far!!
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] marc.knuckle:
i didnt know he was reluctant to state what changes were made??

as of the 'you dont get something for nothing' , what you on about? all the modems are free, good or bad so i really dont know what you are talking about.

network signal info is an app that is used all over these forums for the same purposes so i dont think it would give false readings even if your phone could.

as of why everyone isnt using it. simple, everyone's phone and location is different including the frequencies that their countries use so that is why everyone isnt using it.

if you dont want to use it, try something else, SIMPLE.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] CamoGeko:

This is an .exe what am I supposed to do with this infect my phone with meterpreter.

Can anyone post this modem HLKG4.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] marc.knuckle:
i know what i have done is only with 3 modems and very short bed in period but if we can try to get actual -dbm values for as many as possible, using something similar to me such as 3 timed tests averaged, that gives people an idea of what has worked best in that person's country for example.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] superleeds27:
DBMs will vary on persons location though. Best bet would be for one persin to test each!
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] marc.knuckle:
i agree but comparing for example nelp3 with lpw and lets say nelp3 was better on signal, although the -dbm would then be different for me, if that person lived in uk like me i would likely also see nelp3 to be better. albeit with different dbm.

anyone tried out nelp4 yet? i understand it was out yesterday or day before?
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] superleeds27:

NELP4

DXLP9

XXLQ5

A side note: I have now moved to DXLP9 and am having far less RIL b0rks on CM9 (Thats when signal randomly drops, in the middle of a call, or whenever), just a personal note, it also seems faster than LPS or LPX or even KI3 (My old favourite).

I do notice that newer modems stick to H/H+ rather than dropping down to 3G as much as older ones (By newer I mean the L series ICS radios rather than the older K series GB ones), don't think its hurting battery life that much though.

Hi all,

I recently flashed from checkrom v6 to wanamlite 12.1 and I've flashed nelp3 modem which is what my network (3UK) used. But I've noticed now I don't get h+ were I used to. Is this ROM related? I flashed my old modem back and its still the same. Phone settings says I'm on hspda:9 . I've also noticed it doesn't switch about to 3g like the old modem (neki2).any help would be much appreciated

Thanks
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] CamoGeko:
It's to do with the modem.

Try switching to something like DXLP9 or DXLPA and see if you get better results.

I've been testing modems for a while to find de best one for me :fingers-crossed: ....

Here are the results:

NELP3 is really an excellent modem, but is the more battery hungry.

Currently i'm using XXLQ5 and i'm happy with it... after a day of using it, it became even better and climbed up my list to 2nd place ;)

They are very similar, but XXLQ5 is more battery friendly.

Tests where made in the same spot of my home using Network Signal Info Pro.

PS: The modem XXLPX gave me high Wi-Fi speed and low battery drain, but when talking on the phone the sound was very poor and people on the other side had difficult in earing :silly:

[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] Addicted2Speed:
I'v read a lot in this and another foruns and had that idea too...

After my tests I find out it that it has...

All these modems gave me diferent Wi-Fi signal bars with the same Kernel (N.e.a.k by the way.... been testing Siyah but it has weaker Wi-Fi strenght)...

:good:
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] CamoGeko:
This has been proven for a long time mate, only the kernel controls WiFi signals. The only way there would have been a difference is due to interference, varied distances from the router or something getting in the way of the WiFi signals. That's why the values that you witnessed were different.

Modems only take care of GSM/GPRS/EDGE/3G/HSDPA connections.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] Addicted2Speed:
I don´t doubt you.... but my question is: why the speed difference with different modems, from the same spot at approximatly the same time (i used speedtest to verify that)?

For example:

- the only modem that gave me speeds over 40 mbp/s was XXLPX, none of the other passed the barrier of 39 mbp/s;

- with XXKI4 and NEKF2 no matter how many tests i´ll do i´ve never passed 24 mbp/s;

- all the others gave me speeds between 32 mbp/s and 39 mbp/s;

If the Kernel controls Wi-Fi then the speed should be the same with all modems right? ;)

[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] leolysenko:
modems

you ve done a great job, man, BUT:

I do not think this rating is good for everyone, because the modems show their real results with appropriate kernels only. It is no use to "measure" the modems with the same kernel.

I have used different modems with different kernels and I can say the best are the last ones developed: UHLPG, UHLPF and XXLQ5. At least for me. And I think it is normal afterall these are new modems and probably the developers have fixed some older issues...

P.S. the wi-fi speed measurements are not correct - they have nothing to do with the modems... but you could measure the 3g speed.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] Ashtiany:
Which would be the best modem in terms of battery life for O2 in the UK?

Or if you want to go oldskool then XXKI4.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] Addicted2Speed:

Yes, they were all tested with the same Kernel (N.e.a.k 2.0.6x) and it's correct that some modems work better with other Kernels (for example: i've tested DXLP9/A and both have great signal with Syiah, but with N.e.a.k not so much).

For different countries, there are a different "best modem"...

Right now i'm on XXLQ5, anda i'm loving it: the signal in my area as improved to 67% :D ... less 3/4% than NELP3 - the Top of my list but with a considerable battery drain :(
