[Galaxy Note II General] joeldroid:
Update: Hi guys I have discontinued this thread to the fact that I do no longer own a N7100 device.

Hi Guys,

I thought of creating an official Modem list for the Samsung Galaxy Note II N7100 Modems

I will be adding all the modems available in CWM flashable zips.

What is a modem?

Modem/Radio/Baseband is all the same thing and can be seen by going to Settings - About device - Baseband version. It's basically a driver which receives and sends Mobile Network signals as well as handling switching between GPRS, 3G, HSDPA etc....... (but not WiFi connection, that and switchover between Mobile Network and WiFi is handled by the kernel). Reasoning as to why Modem has no influence on WiFi can be found in this post by Entropy

Why?

Sometimes some custom roms come with modems for various regions. If your modem is designed for different regions than yours then the chances are that it will sometime not work with optimal network performance.

You should look into changing your modem if you are experiencing the following... (I'm writing this from my personal experience, so all may not apply to you).

Poor 3G speeds

Very fast battery drain whilst on 3G

Poor call reception

How to check

Settings >> About device >> Baseband version

Requests

If you want I can make CWM flashable zips, I just need modem donors who will send me modem.bin files with relevant versions so that I could build up this list. You are free to PM me as well.

It is not practical for me to go around downloading all the N7100 roms in the world and extract the modem file.

How to Extract

If you have the N7100 rom zip

1. Extract zip

2. Send me a zip file of the following files modem.bin, optional (/system/lib/libril.so, /system/lib/libsec-ril.so)

From an already installed N7100 (if you do not have the ROM zip with you)

First of all you need to extract a modem if and only if you are in following situations

1. You use a network specific rom and you need to backup the network specific modem and move to a custom rom.

2. Your friend is using a network specific rom and you want to use the same modem.

***[WARNING!]Modems are device dependent

To extract the phone you are extracting must be rooted and usb debugging enabled:

Use adb to dump the modem to your internal phone memory, use this command

adb shell
su
dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p10 of=/sdcard/modem.bin bs=4096
exit

The dumped size will be bigger like 88MB don't worry just zip it and send me the link, I will make a CWM Installer.
