[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] g-ho:
I hope that is enough info. A buddy flashed my captivate up to ICS but the mobile data didn't work, could not get an internet connection. Someone reccomended trying a different modem. I'm with Rogers in Ontario, but when I boot the phone is shows AT&T. What is the best modem and where do I get??

Thanks!
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dohboy15:
I've been using the JK4 modem ever since I flashed my first custom from and its never let me down! Although it all depends on your location I believe, try a few out!

Sent from my Rogers i896 running Miui V4 Port or CM9!
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] g-ho:
Thanks, but any idea where to find it?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crazyjerm1:
KG3 has also worked pretty good to me, a little searching will help you find the modems my friend. As for the internet etc not working, check your APN settings under 'mobile networks', again search is your friend.

kp1 is stellar for me...youll only get att if your in the gta area and have roaming turned on...sometimes it bounces to att towers.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JDM STi:
OP, sorry to hear that... I have a Rogers i896 too, and I did a flash to ICS 4.0.3 today as well without having too much glitch <knock, knock>.

After flashing done, I went into the APNs setting and noticed that Chatr Internet was being selected and it was selected when I went into the APNs setting screen.

I then selected to Rogers one, and sooner after I tested the mobile data and confirmed phone was able to surf the web.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] electech13:
Hey I'm rogers in southern Ontario too and after switching to any ics rooms my signal went to crap! I tried a ton of different modems and in the end the UKG3 modem was the best by far and it appears that most Canadian users swear by it as well. I get great signal even in spots where I was poor before. Data is great. Speaker and sound is great so I use that and reflash it on any from upgrades or changes.

If u go to the captivate forum and android development and then to the stickies there...its one of the first pages that has a huge list. Can't miss it.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ptesmoke:
is your guys data always say H in the status bar?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TRusselo:
captivate development section sticky. also it would really help if you said WHICH ics you have. some of them are really buggy. that might explain your problem... they are all still in beta stage. also might want to check your APN settings. make sure they match these

Rogers APN settings
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JDM STi:
3G <-> H depends on the connectivity and signal strength in the area.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ptesmoke:
so if your in an area with strong H, is your H always in your status bar regardless of if your using data? because i am seeing different behaviour with different modems...
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JDM STi:
Not always H though. It switches to 3G whenever there is a need to. I also started experienced another problem (posted in ICSSGS Q&A thread, waiting for clarification and help).

When I am on wifi at home, after a period of idle, both wifi and phone signal bars greyed out. Yes, both greyed out. From what I've read on this forum, greyed out bars on wifi and phone signal doesn't mean you're disconnected. While both icons were greyed out, I tried the following:-

make phone call: passed

receive phone call: passed

surfing on the web: failed

attempt to send a Whatsapp mesg: failed

In this case, I would have to turn off then turn on its wifi to get connected again.

That's enough frustration tho :S :S :S
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TRusselo:
well.. you need to be on an i9000 based rom with i9000 modem to get H (hspa) speed...and signal strength, and depends if your phone is trying to do anything....
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JDM STi:
Fair enough... my phone (Rogers i896) has been flashed to ICSSGS 4.0.3 with KG3 modem. Does it mean it's on i9000 based rom with i9000 modem? Baseband version is I9000UGKG3.

Any comment would be helpful as I am still learning you all big bros.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TRusselo:
yup all our ICS roms are based on an i9000 CM9 kernel, and usually packaged with an i9000 modem.

even dark night, which is ported from galaxy nexus runs on our phone with the i9000 CM9 kernels..

CM9 is ICS based cyanogenmod rom... thats a whole other discussion..
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JDM STi:
Little OT (excuse me) about modem... to get the best fit modem to your phone matching the area could improve data or voice or both capability?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TRusselo:
each user swears by a different modem in different places around the world...

but see this page..

sticky top of dev section... lots of information, some is only opinion..

【MODEMS】【100+ Captivate I897 ♦ I9000 ♦ CM7/MIUI ♦ ICS】+【Google Location Map】

click the map to go to another page with interactive info map of what users claim they get in area...
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JDM STi:
Yup... looked at the page of list of available modems and tried all possible ones for my area, and chose the best one I think it's the best after installed all 3 listed.

I think I have some good speed in the area where I am in now. However, the new modem DOES NOT help the wifi icon/data bars greyed out issue :/
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gaspet1:
Does anyone have ICS with Data working with Rogers Captivate

Hi,

I ported ICS (ROM WeUI) on my Captivate. Everything works great except that I can barely connect to Rogers Network in Toronto. No data, no calls, no mms.

Does anyone have a solution? I have tried most modems jk4, kc1, kp1, jl2, kg3.

If you have a good combination of ROM+kernel+modem please tell me.

I would hate going back to Android 2.3

Samsung Captivate. Rooted.

Kernel. Semaphore 3.0.8.

ROM. WeUI v0.9.8 by NightShack

Modem. I9088ZNKP1.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tukumalu:
Hi guys, I've just got my replacement SIM card today but there is no signal for the SIM on my Galaxy SII Gingerbread 2.3.3. I popped the SIM into my old Nokia phone and it is working fine so I'm pretty sure it's not the SIM. I googled and looked around the forum but found no solution. Already message the carrier and they say the phone is not barred while the SIM is working fine on my old Nokia phone.

In the "About phone/Status" the phone number is unknown, network is O2 UK, signal strength is ok, mobile network type is "HSDPA", service state is out of service. IMEI number is normal. When I dial any number it says "mobile network not available".

If this thread existed before, I really apologize for making a new one. Any help is really appreciated

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ctomgee:
Where'd you get the phone? Sounds like it's a SIM-locked phone...
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tukumalu:
This phone is an international version I got from my home country Vietnam and it's already unlocked. I was using UK SIM fine until the December holiday. After I returned from Vietnam, the SIM stopped working and I ordered a replacement. Can flashing new kernel affect this cuz I tried some new one during the holiday? The IMEI is still normal though, I checked
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thom_484:
i have a problem ...

with miui or wiui , my debit of 3G is bad. I download at 20 ko... with official rom i download a 300 ko ...

why ?

tks
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ctomgee:
Have you tried the SIM in another phone? Or a different SIM in this phone? Could be either the SIM card is bad (which the replacement SIM will fix), or the SIM card slot on the phone went bad (which the replacement SIM WON'T fix).

Kind of rude to hijack someone else's thread... But I'll answer anyways. My guess is that your official ROM has modems more suited for your country and carrier, and MIUI (or WIUI - never heard of this one) doesn't. You can probably fix with flashing a different modem. But I can't tell you which modem to try.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thom_484:
I have always try e few modem and it's doesn't work .
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ctomgee:
Try some more. I doubt you've tried them all. Maybe some kind soul who is also on your carrier (which you have displayed on your profile as Orange) in your location (also in your profile as France) can tell you which one.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tukumalu:
I popped the SIM into my old Nokia phone and it worked fine so it's not really the SIM. I was thinking maybe there is something wrong with my software but you brought up a good point about the SIM slot :( I'm gonna try it out and see first
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thom_484:
ok . i will try another modem.

thanks
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thom_484:
no, it doesn't work ... i have tried a modem who is ok with checkrom or ics or official samsung but don't work with miui . it's strange because it's ok with miui NDT

[Nexus S 4G Android Development] Jaynormus:
running so fast and its amazing I love it just need my wifi lol

try a format system, wipe data, wipe dalvik, then flash. keep your modem handy if it says unknown baseband. let me know. FLooD and others chip in here. Nobody else has issues correct?

this^ is from about 2 pages back... I can find wifi signals on my 4g, but don't have my neighbor's password, so I can't connect. seems like wifi has been hit or miss w/ 2.6. I'm no dev, but could it be bad downloads?
