Who said 3g is slow in India. I am on airtel & located at Bangalore. I am using airtel 3g and 3gb monthly plan. For the speed one needs to enable hsdpa option. At the moment I am on rem ics 1.3.1 the download speed I am getting is around 1700kbps with H connection. My modem is xxjvu (I have attached to this modem since last one and half years irrespective of the rom I flashed) . In my experience the speed comes from the kernel but not from the modem. Modem gives only connectivity. I am getting these speed only after flashing Mac Kay ics kernel. I like the default settings of his kernel. With xxjvu modem Mac Kay kernel and Andy Thompson miui ics 2.7.20 combination I have even got the speed up to 2500kbps. Which is really fast for me.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] vinu_h:
I don't think anyone is disputing 3g speeds here. There is limited coverage of it in this country and is known to be good in areas that are covered/claimed by the operators.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] TVwithParents:
No one said it's slow.

I have used both Vodafone and Airtel 3G and the speed is fine EXCEPT the overall connectivity of the phone sucks. I either have to deal with -100 around dBms or none at all. The bars keep fluctuating between 1 to 0 bars.

I'm sorry but you're not getting the best connectivity which is possible through 2G. You're just getting good speed and that's about it.

You might want to switch to 2G in the future for better connectivity.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] sprabhuraj:
I have been using SGS for around 2 years, but I would say that, in every custom rom I have flashed starting from CM7, CM9, CM10, MIUI etc, I get the airplane bug often. I am using Airtel number ported from Vodafone in Chennai. I am stuck in airplane mode when never I flash any custom rom. Only few times luckily, I get the Airtel network and I will keep it for few months. If I tend to reboot or reflash the same rom, I am getting stuck in airplane mode and do not get the service whatever modem I flash, like JVU, JVT, KF1 and what not.

I would like to know, if anybody else in this forum facing the same problem, because, I would like to continue using SGS for atleast, next nexus phone comes. Please suggest.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] erpurohit:
Can u explain the steps you use while flashing new rom....
[Galaxy S I9000 General] sprabhuraj:
Okay.. The steps I normally follow clean install. I describe below the latest scenario. Same scenario is applicable for any ICS or JB roms.

1) Flash JVU stock rom using ODIN and root using CF-root.

2) In CWM, Wipe All (Reset + Cache + D Cache)

2) Flash CM10 latest (08/08) or Elite JB v9 in CWM or (any other ICS or JB rom for that matter), (remove battery to solve bootloop)

3) Wipe again and flash the above rom and reboot.

4) After reboot,

with KF1 Modem (Elite JB v7_b), I got the network, but repeated reboots or reflash, network did got back)

with JVT or JVU modem (CM10 or Elite JB v9), I did not get the network at all till now.

Hope, this explains my problem.

Note: No extra mods like other kernels, mods etc, plain normal vanilla procedure.

JVU reception on CM10

I was using JVU modem on CM9,with real good coverage.

But,on CM10,I've noticed the reception is not as good.Most of the times,I am on 1-2 bars.I tried reflashing the modem,even switched to JVT,no change in reception.

I guess the same low reception is eating up my battery life as well.

Anyone else facing similar issue ?

Btw,I am on CM10 nightly,20/8,all stock config

Personally,I found stock kernel performance better than that of Sema/Devil,when on ICS(maybe didn't configure the settings correctly).Hence,a little apprehensive to flash them on JB.

Still,will check out the forums and will try a custom kernel as well.

Thanks for the help :D

I am on the 27th nightly now,and the reception is a little better than that of the previous builds.But the strange thing is I get 4 bars inside office/home and outside,I suddenly lose signal altogether for a minute or so.

On CM10.

Stock Baseband on all CM ROMs is JVT. Never had any issues with it and frankly, 3G in my area SUCKS balls irrespective of whatever modem I use. That said, JVU seems a bit better on the battery than JVT. Will try JW4. Does anybody have a CWM flashable JVB?? It doesn't make TOO much of a difference but I noticed when I was on Sammy ROMs that DD (India specific) modems were pretty darn good compared to XX ones.

[Galaxy S I9000 General] erpurohit:
Hi buddy...

After studying your issue it seems you have wrong IMEI number which was working in US but not in India.

I would suggest you to flash the stock firmware and see if the network is working or not. if its not then sorry you cant do anything more with it :(

If the network is working in that then you can follows the guides and the below steps to avoid any more issues.

1. Root it using cf-root or cwm supported kerne

2. Flash CM9 (wipe data, dalvik, cache)

3. if you want then you can flash CM10 or any JB rom (again wipe data, dalvik, cache)

Hopes this helps you.

I guess you will have answer for my trouble...

I exchanged my xpera neo v with sgs i9000 with a unknown person so i dont know hwere he bought it from and now he is not in my contact...

my imei is 356531******** ..i did some research and found that 35 is rbi code for UK...so does that mean my phone was from UK ...

I am living in India / Mumbai -Vodafone-

I have problem in network reception and strength ...the sim card works fine as it shows full network in other phones but in mine it only shows 1/2 bars and mostly network lost ...

I have tried many modems and also flashed many roms but nothing helped...

So do i need to try a UK's modem in my phone would it help??

or is there any solution for it...i showed it to a local repair shop and he told me he can change the network IC and it will solve the problem but i dont trust him!!!:confused:
[Galaxy S I9000 General] erpurohit:

[Galaxy S I9000 General] vinu_h:
I'm using a UK bought i9000 in India. It worked well with Vodafone there, but not so much here. I won't bother you with my troubles.

First, try XXJVU modem and see if it helps; else try choosing WCDMA only(3g only) in network settings of your phone. I'm eager to know the outcome of this. Do post back.

[Galaxy S I9000 General] vinu_h:
Suggest you try 2 & 3; in that very order. As suggested by erpurohit, go back to stock ROM if the problem remains unresolved. I wouldn't recommend using a brand new OS on a 2.5+ year old hardware.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] spark2331995:
stock ROM not resolving anything...

and this 2.5+ year old device still works awesome on new os ,so why not to use it..

and vinu do you too have network problem like me....what did u do???and do you think should I pay to local repair shop to change my network ic (risky is guess)???
[Galaxy S I9000 General] erpurohit:
ok...can you try these:

1. putting another sim and check network on it

2. try replacing your sim

3. if both of above don't solve then I can get opinion of two three vendors and then decide should you go for repairing option or not...
[Galaxy S I9000 General] spark2331995:
I tried airtel,aircel,reliance,DoCoMo non of it working properly ):

so I guess option 3 is now the only way...
[Galaxy S I9000 General] erpurohit:
Ya... but check with multiple repair shop before lending your phone in anyone's hands...
[Galaxy S I9000 General] vinu_h:
This is the problem I've been facing. A and C issues have been resolved, but B remains.

1. Have you tried restricting it to 3g only ? Did that help ?

2. Are you sure that you're phone was bought in the UK ? If yes, read on : I found a friend who works for Samsung. He promised to have my motherboard replaced for free, when he realised that the parts in a phone meant for the UK are different from an Indian one. (International warranty is just a claim, they don't really honour it apparently). The motherboard costs Rs. 10,000.

Please advise back on the 3g only solution.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] spark2331995:
It was working like weeks ago on only 3g (network bars were 0 but still it was enough strength to make call and network was not fully lost) but vodafone gave me free net package of 2g 75mb and since then again the network problem persists (whatever i do it doesnt connect to 3g)(i plan for that) and yes Aircel was apparently good so i guess i will MNP to aircel :confused:
