Yup there are pages of posts about this but no one read. Now that its confirmed from TDJ that GPS is tied to he modem, if people would read and flash your modded lb7 or the modded KL1 I posted earlier in the thread

1. Your data roaming issue will stop for good

2. Your GPS will lock on effortlessly

But most will not read this and post about how they're switching back to another rom over GPS and data roaming drops

I just want to say for whatever reason everything is better with this new version except the no video sound but running good for now.

Dude don't bother did the same crap to me. This is his M.O. He'll get banned sooner or later. P.S. I agree with you. Mods need to smack people down who attack people for no reason or comment on the merits of posts. It's not only lame it's off topic. Maybe they should be reported more often but then I feel petty doing that. It's not really being petty it's more with keeping with the rules of the forum. I've seen a lot of devs leave because of these issues. I'm wondering if there was something like a "post issues" field with "logcat" attachment and then "general comments" that would shoot things to 2 different threads. one for "my pictures are blurry" type crap and one for real dev'ing. I'd use the first one mostly as finding a general section for this or other roms is tedious.

After extensive testing all day.. the only radio working properly is the modified blaze lb7 radio without the rils included. I will upload and link in the op later. That radio will cure the GPS and data issues.

No one reads! Dude I don't post **** for fun... I do read and search around for stuff. I've tried doing many different ways but no luck at all. I spent the whole afternoon yesterday trying to get it to work and nothing. This ain't the first time flashing roms I just can't get the radio to stick to the network.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] darkside79:
already tried the lb7 modem and got no data even after flashing back to the UVLC8 Modem and a full restore. had to reflash the whole dang rom! no good!

can you please post a link to the modded KL1 Modem? thanks a million!

Now that bug is isolated and we determined a fix, on to the camcorder mic. Does anyone know if they had this issue on any other roms with the same base?

U need to make sure that you use the blaze lb7 modified radio.. my suggestion to you is to start over with reflashing the rom. Flash the modified blaze radio first then flash the rom. That should solve your issue

The number one issue right now is everyone flashing the radios with the rils included. U CAN NOT FLASH A RADIO THAT HAS THE RILS INCLUDED! IT WILL BREAK DATA AND NETWORK CONNECTION! I will upload the proper radio later on when I get home. For now either find the modified blaze radio or pull out the rils. If you already flashed radios then START OVER AND FLASH AGAIN! FLASH RADIO THEN ROM!

Please don't do that! I know it gets to be to much! :cool:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] DannyB513:
It is really simple folks. DL the LB7 radio. Open the zip on your PC or use a root explorer if on your phone. Delete the entire system folder from out of the zip. Then flash on your phone. Then follow the OP on how to flash the ROM.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] BRKotucs:
First thing to do is wait for you to post the link to the lb7 radio when you get back home from work this afternoon. Not that I don't trust anybody else.. But just making sure here.

Then :

Super wipe

Flash the radio (lb7)

Flash rom

Reboot

Let it sit for 10 minutes

Enjoy!

Dude no hard feelings but I'm reading different things from people from one saying backup and restore and flash because it works good to others saying do a fresh flash.. I've seen you reply to others that had done things differently than you saying if it works do it or that's another way of doing it and etc.. So I want to make completely sure before I f up completely. Idk about you but I'm in a line of work where u get questions all the time. No question is stupid and sometimes we need verification. I have developed a thing called patience in my line of work.. And sorry I'm not as smart as you or others and need more quidance.. I'm new to all of this and am very proud that for the most part I follow your OP directions very well and appreciate the detailed instructions. You are awesome about that.. Not getting on you because I know how frustrating this can be but just letting you know where I come from. Just like not all phones are the same so is the same with people..

Running the LC8 radio.

Hope I didn't just jinx myself.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] PorchSong:
Tdj,

The only solution I've found is using the KID radio following proper install procedure. I know KID is GB, but everything is working perfectly. In fact my reception evrywhere is just better and speeds hit 13M plus. Also no data drops. GPS locks in less than 13 seconds on 13 of 23 sats.

So, the question I have is what am I potentially giving up using the KID radio? I read your post where the rils get rewritten by rom when you flash radio first. So, is it ok to use GB radios for the interim?

hey TDJ, im not sure was it mentioned, but when im on a call and i put it to speakers its blasting and its really hard to hear what they are saying. i didn't get that problem with the t-mobile leak, on seeing it here.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Docmjldds:
PLUS One. Hopefully no one can screw up flashing a radio that has the RIL's stripped out. After listening to the explanation more times than I can imagine TDJ could bear, I can't see what's so hard about unzipping a file, deleting the /system folder than contains the Lib files (2) to be exact of the rils mentioned. Yes, you made this foolproof by doing this for them. Hopefully it solves the issues for most. I personally have NOT had a single issue using the TMobile radio, and a few others have stated same. But so as to test the waters for betterness if possible, I will flash the RIL-LESS or stripped out Blaze/LB7 radio to see for myself. But again, thanks....

As for the audio problem, I did NOT use camcorder in a while, so regretfully could not state anything that would be helpful.

EDIT: I know I have tested an earlier version of this that was a heat generator and battery eater, but since I don't recall the ROM, and using the modified version I will try this anyway.
