Jester, just to let you know that I am in the UK and I tried most of the Radios but was only getting 2-3 bars and my signal strength on -109, I flashed XXLB1 and now I am getting full bars with the signal on -79, very happy with that. I am currently in my office and only getting 3g so will pop outside and see if I get H+ which I was getting with the other radios but the signal strength was poor.

I am using the German ICS rom DXLP9, Baseband XXLB1 and Kernel 3.0.15

Hope that helps?

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] pb1379:
Interesting... thus you got better reception with lb1 than with lr1? I'll give it a try this, too...

Tried it, and indeed WAY better reception!

Thanks a lot!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] Galaxea:
I'm confused! You went from an ICS modem to a Gingerbread one and it was better?

Can you even run a GB modem on ICS?

Also, are you talking about real-world reception, or just more bars on your phone, as this could be a software tweak to the bars shown, without any real noticable signal change?

Modem is afaik independent, can mix them freely.

Took the only measure I have at hand, db/aus under settings/about/status. Went from some 110+ to 79+, quite a difference. As of bars (which, agreed, are tweakable), from 0/1 to 3. That has been around home, will keep an eye on the go, though.

As of call quality, it's always great, even with no bars shown :)

Data proof missing still, too. Didn't have time for that yet.

BTW: also get more bars on wifi, but don't know how to verify effective signal vs. optic tweak.

Compare your network signal and wifi signal after flashing a new modem.

Hi and thanks for this excellent post.

I'm in the UK with T Mobile running imilka's CM9, and I just tested LA4, LB1, LB2, LP6, and LR1. I found the modem which gave the fastest speeds and strongest connections was LB2, on both the TM and Orange networks. I haven't tested battery life with it, but given the strength of the connection I think it's less likely to drop and search for other networks as everything everywhere phones do now.

Have other UK TM customers tested these modems, and did you receive different results?

hi i have hong kong version and my wife just purchase japanese version of Galaxy note. i wish to extract her japanese version of radio modem and flash to my hong kong version because my current signal is not that good when i compare them side by side. more over, i am willing to upload japan radio modem for others who have purchased hong kong version and using it in japan.

Do you have any update on this? e.g. what is your longer term view, what rad are you currently on etc etc?

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] abalakersky:
Still trying to decide. Right now I am on XXLR1 with LQ2 rom and while it is ok it is definitely not perfect in terms of signal. Battery life seems to be similar to others. I am going to try something else today.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] Actorios:
I have used LP5, LP6 and the latest is LR1 with latest Stunner Rom. Using all of these cause data connection to drop every now and then. Often I have to turn off data and then turn on again. I am on 3 UK, so maybe it is just 3's signal. I can't remember how it was when I first got the phone. I bought it from Germany though... I will try LB2 and hope for the best.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] theloginwithnoname:
Whilst trying to do some testing (by flashing LB2), I managed to break my radio! Spent a day trying to fix it, only to find LB2 and LR1 are exactly the same size and therefore, I deduce, the same code. CWM-flashing LR1.zip eventually worked and now OK.

Lol, only kidding. Now I'm not sure what the deal is with Samsung devices, but I know the GB basebands work in ICS, But when I used to mess around with my Dell Streak, you needed to match the baseband to the version of Android on your phone. Else things won't work, getting a signal, sound not working etc... There's more to the baseband than just "I get a better signal" or "my battery is better" etc...

I'm sure it probably doesn't matter, but for me personally, if I'm going to run gingerbread, I'll use a GB baseband and like wise for ICS.

If you have root on your console and know what you're doing,

dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p8 of=/sdcard/modem.bin

will dump it to the 'modem.bin' file on your internal emmc

BTW I'd like to ask the experts something that intrigued me:

The modem partition has 16777216 bytes while all modems here -- at least several of them -- have exactly only 12583168 bytes.

Is the dumping method which is cutting the images at that offset really sane?

Maybe I'm missing something... just wanted to confirm.

b.t.w. the modem is JKLA3, if is this file I will upload it to here

Thanks for this! I'll be needing stuff here a lot now I'm tinkering with CM9.

I hadn't noticed until I read through my phone details in the settings that my Baseband was XXLA4, the one from the stock GB rom I flashed before installing PA.

I'm not sure if something went wrong, or PA v0.3 really doesn't flash a new modem in with the ROM? Somebody please confirm this.

I'm gonna go ahead and use XXLR1 which OP marked as "latest" and hope there are no problems. :D Little suggestion: for those special "latest" and "popular" tags, put in who it is popular to. :)) Anyway, great work!

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] _pigro_:
I'm with VF UK on stock ICS. I found that the radio was much worse (for wifi) after ICS upgrade than it was on GB - and I attribute at least some of my poorer battery performance on ICS to that too.

So I tried LB1 and LB2 modems. LB2 was no better than stock ICS, LB1 I think gives a marginal improvement over the stock ICS - but it's so slight I may be imagining it.

In my case my access point is quite old (2.4GHz, b/g only), my victorian flat has huge thick walls, and about 30 other wifi access points competing above, below and on all sides for radio space ... so no modem is going to give great results as it's a physical limitation. However as I say, LB1 seems slightly stronger and more stable so far than the default ICS experience - though not as good as my old GB experience. That could be due to interference from other wifi access points hopping onto my channel though, it's a nsever-ending battle trying to select a relatively free channel. Probably time for me to get a new access point that does 5Ghz and automatically channel-hops to keep ahead of the neighbours!

Can't say I noticed any significant difference at all on the cell radio reception across the three modems (but that's just within my house, I haven't been out and about yet to try in real world conditions.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] cdmackay:
thanks much indeed! sorry, ran out of "thanks" today.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] _pigro_:
np. just to update, LB1 is definitely giving me more stability - I have 2 AP's on different channels, linked via powerline ethernet to maximise coverage in my house. Yesterday, in my bedroom (worst coverage) my note changed AP about 6 times over the hour or so I used it after waking up. Today it hasn't done so once. Further, I dropped about 20% battery in that hour yesterday while today the same routine has used only 7%.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] jdmcivic:
correct me if im wrong but what i've learnt is that modem has got nothing to do with wifi. wifi is kernel dependent.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] _pigro_:
I am no expert but I thought modem.bin was the firmware for the chips which handle both cell radio and wifi. If not, that's a great placebo effect I'm experiencing :-)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] Café King:

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] MTAlmeida:
As far as I know, Wifi is not related to modem. It's merged on the kernel.

If you want, you can PM Entropy, from CM9, and confirm.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] aussiebum:
Yeah I can confirm. Was using LR1 modem for a while then after flashing the GB LB2 to try, decided to then try the GB LA4 (Optus? Austraila) modem.

Definitely getting better signal, faster/more responsive 3g data and seems to be less battery drain too.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Android Development] jdmcivic:
thats where you're wrong. wifi has gt nothing to do with radio.

and you should know better that those speedtests arent constant at all. your wifi download speed is all determined by how fast the server uploads plus many other factors. you arent the only one doing the tests so that explains why ur speedtest results fluctuates.

I'm in the northeast using ATT and just tried 6x modems XXLB2, LP6, LRB, LB1, DDLP4, and DXLC1. I did not see any change in signal strength I stayed at -89dBm and 12asu. My speedtests show large variations but it's probably more because of the time of day i.e. first few tests were at 2pm and I was getting 114ms/518kbps/482kbps and at 3am i'm getting 140/2614/1064.
