i've noticed that data is better with this modem, GPS is fast, 3-4 secs, 3g getting about 2-4 mb DOWN and 1-3 mb UP, maybe this is me but voice is a little clear, ans SMS deliveries are faster that JK2 and JK6.
[Vibrant Android Development] Guitar100:
Where do i get Odin?........When i DL the modem .zip file,do i unzip on computer first........I`m such a noob. But i`m learning!!!!
[Vibrant Android Development] pwood40:
Wher is the link?
[Vibrant Android Development] Master™:
I don't think you can see it on the phone..
[Vibrant Android Development] pwood40:
Thank you for your turbo response. I appreciate all you have done to make my android phones kick butt !
[Vibrant Android Development] s0niqu3:
Ok, just like JK6, here's a version that should update the baseband string in /settings/about

At least, it did for me when I just flashed it. And FYI, I have no idea why some zips don't update the string and some do, it looks like the update syntax we all use is identical, so maybe its just a bad download for some people if the baseband string doesn't update.

Cheers, =)
[Vibrant Android Development] Master™:
Cool, added to the OP as an alternative by you :)
[Vibrant Android Development] Colt1911:
Without a doubt in my mind this has improved my gps dramaticaly. Locks under 10 seconds and locks 10 of 11 birds even with my phone sitting next to my pc.

The Vibrant still isn't as accurate as my old mytouch3g though. The mt almost always showed 3 meter accuracy.

Thanks for posting this!
[Vibrant Android Development] MWBehr:
Thanks s0niqu3, it worked perfectly ;)
[Vibrant Android Development] jir591:
I tried this modem version and I am seeing much better results vs JK2

Cell service: now receiving HSPDA inside my house with download speed around 3.3 mbps. Previously I could not get HSPDA inside home only would receive it standing outside.

GPS: now getting instant locks inside my home with phone near a window.
[Vibrant Android Development] SC23:
I downloaded the zip file, flashed thru clockwork and it took less than 45 seconds. Now I'm getting better satellite lock in much lesser time and the accuracy has really improved.

Thanks!
[Vibrant Android Development] medina0644:
Flashed the new zip and modem now says jl1, sweet... thx
[Vibrant Android Development] andynguyensd:
uhm god job thanhks bro
[Vibrant Android Development] scrizz:
w00t s0niqu3 to the rescue again!!!!!

thx

no one has aswered my questions!!!!!!!!!

[Vibrant Android Development] Tepoztecatl:
You can flash through clockwork.

No, it's not a ROM, it's a modem build.

You don't need it.

You can't flash it from samsung recovery, you have to do it through CWM.
[Vibrant Android Development] scrizz:
thanks. now I know there are good ppl still around.

:D

was testing ya.

:p
[Vibrant Android Development] krazie1:
There still are Mature Generous people around. I was about to get to your question but i saw it was already answered. =D Yeah i hear good things about this Modem though, i cant wait to flash it.
[Vibrant Android Development] HAvoktek:
GREAT ZEUS! I can't stand it any longer. Look people if you got half the salt to open your pie hole in this forum, you'd better atleast do a little research, bell google other forums, but dank its obvious that if someone took the time to post a rom or a modem upgrade from a new leaked released then somethin had to change! Dang tmdo you know how many times I've odin my phone and recovery, download, flash my phone? Hell its only three weeks old. With a little reading and less cryin about do I need this or is this good. You could damn near NEVER brick it . Thanks to some good ole fashion leg work I've pulled out the gutter countless times....around 3am with a cold monster drink and some perfect circle playin on my headphones. Can't go to work with a dead phone right?

Point is..this XDA DEVELOPERS they develope you roll with it good or bad, post your results. Dig it?

Now for those in the cheap seats let me acknowledge. That this modem is rocks baby, the best GPS lock I've had with this phone since purchased 3weeks ago.

Thank you Master and welcome back from a noob that's not.....

Oh yeah one thing, if Clockwork ain't yo friend now then you need to just leave the forum and quit playin' with your phone.

No disRespect just got sick took some codine cough syrup and went off.
[Vibrant Android Development] HAvoktek:
That was sooooo wrongggg.

Insert foot in mouth.
[Vibrant Android Development] Tepoztecatl:
I just flashed this and can confirm that GPS behavior is EXTREMELY better than JK2 and JK6. I locked to 7 birds in 4 seconds, with JK6 I wasn't able to lock to more than 3 in less than 2-3 minutes.

Thank you for this Master, I hope you add it to your next Axura release. It's my favorite ROM for the Vibrant.

Thx for posting. Laying in bed with 5 birds locked. Speeds about the same.

Sent from my SGH-T959
[Vibrant Android Development] gagb1967:
Weird

Something weird after ODIN this modem. I'm running Axura 2.1 and the icon for SD card scanning changed to Stock from the one coming with the stock rom....., just a curiosity

GPS inside the house, about 30 seconds to lock 7 birds, that is a huge improvement.

Speed test i usually had inside the house about aprox 2500kbps / 1200kbps down

Now 4814 up/ 1375 down

First time I'm even close to these speeds

I think Samsung got the modem right!
[Vibrant Android Development] toddsk:
both dl links are dead ends for me...no downloads???
[Vibrant Android Development] gagb1967:
I downloaded with no problem from the black big bottom that says download about 5 min ago and tried now again and is working
[Vibrant Android Development] cm1ck:
This modem is a massive improvement over JK6 for me, not only for GPS but connectivity and bandwidth. Hilarious fail for the tard earlier in this thread who botched his flash of the modem and projected his own stupidity on everyone else.
[Vibrant Android Development] medina0644:
Dead on the money 8 satellites in 5 seconds, got google satellite image and is exactly where im at.... talk about a difference coming from jk2 ....
[Vibrant Android Development] toddsk:
well, i tried again and got it this time, thanks for the prompting. gonna flash, now.
[Vibrant Android Development] Scoobyracing03:
Maybe I missed this in here but can I put the JL1 modem on JI6? or does it have to be on a Froyo ROM?
[Vibrant Android Development] Tepoztecatl:
This is just an invitation for another bs discussion to start. Let's keep this clean now :D
[Vibrant Android Development] Effigy85:
All I can say is WOW. I've gone through many modems and this is by far the best for GPS. Even on JK2 it would take almost 30sec to get a lock outside, now it's less then 10sec inside my house! data stayed about the same (about 2500, 500up), maybe a minor drop, but that's fine for my needs. Thanks again Master!
[Vibrant Android Development] gopack13:
I just did without any issues, I'm still using Fusion 1.2. Baseband shows the new modem. Only thing I noticed is I have 4 bars laying on my couch when I had 3 before I flashed. Too lazy (and cold outside) to test GPS, but data is about the same for me, but I've gotten strong data in Chicago for a long time.
[Vibrant Android Development] Scoobyracing03:
I don't blame ya for not testing the GPS I'm originally from Chicago and it's cold enough down here in Louisville for me to not want to go outside and test my GPS.
[Vibrant Android Development] anthonys2r:
Has anyone tested this long enough to comment on battery life? Specifically compared to JK6?
[Vibrant Android Development] kennyp987:
This is cyanogenmod rom 8 and yes you need odin

Vibrant + sXe V4 (V3.1 Theme) + OCLF + JK2 Modem
[Vibrant Android Development] kennyp987:

Vibrant + sXe V4 (V3.1 Theme) + OCLF + JK2 Modem
[Vibrant Android Development] 12paq:
I was one of the lucky ones whose GPS always worked. Now with JL1 its faster, 3sec lock warm sart, 9of12 birds indoors. Will test battery and real life tracking as well as H in the morning. Thanks!
[Vibrant Android Development] Effigy85:
Can't say for sure, I came from JK2. on JK2 my battery would drop 20%/hr with light usage, with JL1 it's only dropping 10%/hr
[Vibrant Android Development] C-4Nati:
Flashed it, base band version still says jk6
[Vibrant Android Development] PaiPiePia:
I hope this get as good a battery life as on JK6, 23 hours and with 48 percent remaining is just too good to mess up.
[Vibrant Android Development] Master™:
Use the second one then.
[Vibrant Android Development] jlaholton:
Wow, used 8 of the 11 satellites in view, accuracy within 17 feet, inside. Gps locked on in about 10 secs.
[Vibrant Android Development] aarif_ziaee:
the first one dint worked for me

second download worked ...

i am just comming from fusion 1.2 and this rom is smooth like a butter and speed like a hell....

just wanna check how is the battery on axura 2.1
[Vibrant Android Development] explodingboy70:
Thanks for posting. Testing at work now where im mostly on edge with the occasional blip in 3g. I've not seen edge yet bouncing from full bats and 1 but no edge.
[Vibrant Android Development] cyberpyr8:
This one definitely locks on to GPS faster for me. I normally was getting lock at work in about 10-12 seconds. It locked today in about 3 seconds. I noticed much better speeds downloading too.
[Vibrant Android Development] junglizste:
Didn't work through CWM for me... maybe it would work through regular recovery. maybe the second version will work.

What I can say is:

The first version works through ODIN if you pull the modem.bin out of the zip and flash by clicking only phone button in odin and selecting the modem.bin file and flashing.
[Vibrant Android Development] kitoro:
dono y alot of u guys reported GPS work fine...but it simply not working for me...T_T

does my phone need to claim warranty? T_T
[Vibrant Android Development] Scoobyracing03:
after I first flashed it I was showing 0 birds in site I ran the GPS restore app from samsung and now I'm getting locks quickly.
[Vibrant Android Development] jir591:
I tried a more accurate test of my GPS after using this update. I used SGS Tools and ran the Get Position Test in a open sky area outside. Here's my results.

1) "cold start" and "delete gps data" settings and got a lock in 108 seconds.

2) "hot start" and delete gps data settings and got a lock in 86 seconds

3) hot start and did NOT delete gps data and got a lock in 1 second.
[Vibrant Android Development] moises1204:
what? i did not get your explanation.
[Vibrant Android Development] epakrat75:
The fact that the second one does work has been littered about this thread. The OP was also updated with the second version to avoid this from being repeated ad infinitum. However, it is overshadowed by that big download button that links to the first version.
[Vibrant Android Development] zedgar:
GPS is about the same for me compared to JK6, maybe a little better but no worse. Data seems to have improved. Worth the flash. Thanks!
[Vibrant Android Development] zaphod_fl:
This modem is the best so far. GPS is not any better for me, but I am constantly getting HSPDA where before I would be getting UMTS.
[Vibrant Android Development] nelson0140:
flashed last night. gps is about he same for me but have been inside when i tested it. one thing i did notice is using speedtest last night i was getting around 4.5 mb d/l with gps on and 2.5 mb d/l with gps off...now this morning those have been reversed with 4.5 mb d/l with gps off and 2.5 mb d/l with gps on. why would gps make a difference can anyone help me with that question? i do have to say that with ji6 i was getting about 2.5 mb d/l consistently with a max d/l of 3mb so this is a huge improvement, flashed onyx 4.2 a couple days ago and never did a speedtest with jk2 so couldnt compare there...

edit: been running speedtest trying gps on/off i think its just the inconsistent connection cuz all of my results are pure randomness now haha sorry
[Vibrant Android Development] crippenx:
Does this work with the international version also? I'm using the Bell vibrant --

Froyo 2.2 baseband i9000xxjpm ...

thanks for any help! :)
[Vibrant Android Development] henreeg:
Thanks bruno. Clarifies a lot. And thank you for not being so immature.

However, i also liked the "because i said so" answer from KidDynamite .:p

i prefer yours though.
[Vibrant Android Development] BoomBoomPOW:
Flashing was smooth and about phone info changed to JL1. GPS lock in 1.5 sec :-P....i used s0niqu3's upload instead.
[Vibrant Android Development] itrustme:
gps nearly the same, maybe slightly better lock times. For sure better data connection and speed. In my house i use to only get data speeds of .8 mbps tops now im getting 2 mbps down. Significant improvement worth flashing. Only flaw for me at least is battery performance isnt as good.
[Vibrant Android Development] deeoh1084:
Master u r the "Master" of vibrant thank u thank u thank u

i'm one of the lucky ones that had really good gps tracking with JK6 also and i just flashed the JL1 modem to mine and first lock only took less than 10 seconds awesome!!!! :D (use the second download not the first one)
[Vibrant Android Development] Smokeyla1:
I would like to try this modem for GPS issues my phone has, but had to switch back to ji6/2.1/fusion because apps like MSN talk and other background messaging apps would automatically sign me out in background randomly with onyx/obsidian roms. Would that be a modem issue? Or just apps needing updates to work better on newer roms? I tried multiple messaging apps, none worked correctly for me on 2.2 roms. Thanks, info and help are always appreciated
[Vibrant Android Development] Lavundra21:
Definitely a improvement here.. Always had hsdpa speeds but after running speedtest I went from mid 4 scores to upper 5 to even mid 6mbps.. Gps never worked so can't comment on that..
[Vibrant Android Development] aarif_ziaee:
well i installed this on azura 2.1 and tried gps for the first time yes first time ...lol !!!!!!!!

through igo my way 2009 Middle East Bahrain and its awesome was exactly correct... enjoyed it

Thanks Master for your rom... Love it

unfortunately copilot gave error
[Vibrant Android Development] ilaf0106:
I am still getting on info saying jk2 after installing jl1 should i install it again? Im on mancut 12
[Vibrant Android Development] ferhanmm:
Installed yours and it still said jk6.

Installed second one said JL1 but no hsdpa :(

Installed yours again, Hsdpa now!!

Thanks!
[Vibrant Android Development] reddragon72:
found a small issue with this radio. When using JK6 image with this radio, Wifi Calling seems to knock out the cellular info. When I am in my lab and using Wifi Calling it must be on wifi preferred, did not have that issue before. Also when I step out of my lab into cellular coverage and turn Wifi off(not wifi calling app) I have no signal. I have to open the cellular properties and have it search then select T-Mobile. I have done this repeatedly and get the same issue every time.

Is it possible to go back to the JK6 radio? I am going to flash the radio again and see if it helps, if not then I'll ODIN it and see what's up. If all else fails I would like to fall back to the JK6 radio. Is there a JK6 radio only or am I going to have to flash JK6 all over again?

Thanks.

FYI, GPS still doesn't work for me. I'm all over the map, but my data speeds were 6070 down and 1750 up, faster then my home internet.
[Vibrant Android Development] toddsk:
i see no improvement....thanks for the work anyway though. any and allmods are appreciated here
[Vibrant Android Development] Jibreil:
GPS has not been a priority for me though I've surely noticed the phone picking up 2G signals really fast (sorry no 3G yet with my service provider), voice clarity and improvement in Data connectivity (EDGE/GPRS) and along with that battery consumption. Its a huge leap for mankind ... ooops! Vibrant :-)

My ROM > Read my Sig!
[Vibrant Android Development] Shrivel:
Flashed using Odin. Significant improvement in GPS performance over JK6 - locked on almost immediately. JK6 would take minutes sometimes. Speedtest results between JK6 and this modem within about 10 minutes of one another were nearly identical.
[Vibrant Android Development] dasunsrule32:
Flashed this modem twice, and CWM says successful, but after rebooting, still says jk2 modem. :( Used heimdall and it flashed fine.
[Vibrant Android Development] Master™:
Read the OP...
[Vibrant Android Development] dasunsrule32:
Yea, didn't see that link all the way at the bottom away from everything. Thanks though. :)
[Vibrant Android Development] toddsk:
you're gonna have to flash with odin
[Vibrant Android Development] dasunsrule32:
Well, so far the reception "appears" to be better, get 4 bars almost regularly; however, data speed is 500 - 700kbps slower. It doesn't have the latency issues that jk6 had when using data. Will be testing battery life. Phone does seem a bit snappier with this modem. Need to test the GPS also.
[Vibrant Android Development] rayvil30:
Installed fine using odin on my second try. First one failed. Baseband ver. now reads t959uvjL1. Ran fcc test and I have my best download and upload speeds ever. Gps did not lock in inside. As soon as I walked outside and tested it was locked in within 1 minute tops. So far so good.
[Vibrant Android Development] soyoxda:
after update, My d/l is 32.5 kb/s and Up is 94 kb/s. Does this sound right?
[Vibrant Android Development] dasunsrule32:
Eh...gps stinketh, installed gpsjm9.zip, back in business.

Sent from my SGH-T959
[Vibrant Android Development] rayvil30:
Well, my d/l was over 2.5 mb and my u/l were over 1.5mb. But that could also depend on your area. What kind of reception were you getting before and so on. I do know that those numbers are better than what I was getting before. I've seen some guys around here getting some real high uploads and downloads. Oh well, i'm happy so far. We'll see what kind of issues may arise.
[Vibrant Android Development] ThC23:
Works good with Obsidian 4.2.

So far better data signal! It doubled my download/upload speeds!
[Vibrant Android Development] J__:
i'm getting less d/ul speed with this modem for some reason and showing less bars...

obsidian v5 beta
[Vibrant Android Development] nickmcminn60:
Do you guys remember how jk2 modem would say you had three bars but web pages would randmly not load? I got that problem back with jl1 so I reverted back to jk6 and issue resolved.
[Vibrant Android Development] iynfynity:
yeah this happens sometimes. the battery life also is not as good as Jk2 for me. but this one really gives me a 3g in my place in which no other rom does it.
[Vibrant Android Development] chupacabra613:
Busted out JL1 on the first try. I'll give it a go for awhile.
[Vibrant Android Development] ryangera:
That sounds pretty rough dude. I just ran a speed test and these are my results.

I live in boise and we haven't had 3g here for a full year yet. I rarely got a 3g signal in my house. My top score down before jk6 was 700k down. This modem is a big improvement for me.
[Vibrant Android Development] Svekt:
Flashed perfectly. Much better GPS, has already been stated. Maybe its just me but now I get better service in areas that I used to have weaker signal. Downloads pushing 2Mbps download speeds. Anyone getting similar results?

Axura 2.1 by MASTER (the man) et al,+JL1 modem
[Vibrant Android Development] iynfynity:
You don’t have a 3g in the past but your download is about below 700 kb? man you are lucky! mine is only about below 200!
[Vibrant Android Development] iynfynity:
wtf happened to my reply? lol i didn't type that way.

i thought you're getting a 700kb with edge that's why i asked. Well that 200kb is in edge but whenever i'm on 3g i'm getting more than 1mb or greater. The problem is i don't have a 3g in my area.
[Vibrant Android Development] The_wolf88:
Thank you Very much !

I was looking for this !
[Vibrant Android Development] rayvil30:
Is it just me or does this modem drain the battery faster. The jk6 modem (or was it jk2?) seemed to last longer for me. Still gonna wait a couple of days and see how it goes.
[Vibrant Android Development] ohnoezmahfone:
Since upgrading I've been getting more dates and my hairline has stopped receding. But my baseband version is still the same (I flashed via CWM).

How do I check to see that the update was applied?
[Vibrant Android Development] dzasta:
Open your zipper/fly btw your legs and see if your "junk" has grown another 3 inches... If yes, then the update was applied. If not, you should reflash via CWM.

[goto menu -> settings -> about phone then scroll down to baseband version]
[Vibrant Android Development] e46ci:
there are 2 links in the OP... download the 2nd link. The original link is correct but for some reason, the update string doesn't transfer to your phone.

i can understand if this thread was 100+ pages but it's only 3 and this question has been asked at least 5x! Does anyone bother reading past the OP?
[Vibrant Android Development] rayvil30:
Best way to flash is to odin. Got it on 2nd try. Just check the phone part and insert file. Hit start and let it do its magic. So far it's draining my battery fast though.
[Vibrant Android Development] reddragon72:
I think that is why the battery is draining faster. Keeping that 3G signal alive drains the battery faster and JL1 seems to be doing that. I did not see a speed increase over JK6, but the battery drain does seem to be faster.
[Vibrant Android Development] iynfynity:
My data speed doesn't increase, but I do have a better reception.
[Vibrant Android Development] reddragon72:
That is what I was getting at. My speed didn't increase either, but my signal is better and I the network seems to respond a lot faster. All that means is that the radio is pushing to keep that 3G linked which leads to better signal but lesser battery life.

I would also like to add that WIFI is total crap on this radio. no speed, constant 404 errors and pages not found. takes 3-5 min to load XDA and this is on two different wifi networks. Wireless N routers saying connection at 65m and the phone states 45m while all other PC's in the house are at 300+(tested at home and work)
[Vibrant Android Development] mike216:
This modem rocks everyone its a must have,very quick data and gps.good gps lock also
[Vibrant Android Development] ikevinnyii:
Master

Downloading now, but on a side note master can you look into problem with the froyo firmwares I think it has to do with changing the camera but theres another thread going on about how the mic volume is really low when recording a video, I confirmed it by going back to ji6 from axura 2.06.
[Vibrant Android Development] dsuycott:
flashed s0niqu3's version, came up JL1...nice, thanks to the both of you.

data noticeably better feel, then the speedtest confirmed...gps locks on 6-11 satellites while i'm inside, prior was 4-9 sometimes 2...

vibrant/axura2.1/JL1
[Vibrant Android Development] Shrivel:
Yep, this modem is the best my GPS has ever functioned, including JI6.
[Vibrant Android Development] reddragon72:
how is everyone's WIFI?

My GPS was still broke and my WIFI was total crap. I went back to JK6 and now WIFI works again, also Wifi Calling. I'll do a speed test later on JK6 and see if there was a speed difference, but I hadn't really noticed anything.
[Vibrant Android Development] s15274n:
I love this modem. Finally pretty consistant 3G singal in my office!
[Vibrant Android Development] rayvil30:
It really is a nice modem if you dont mind the battery drain. I flashed back to jk2 on my Soms jk6 flash.
[Vibrant Android Development] iynfynity:
battery is great when using edge only then.if you use 3g it will rape your battery. solution is to use edge if 3g is not needed. 14 hours since unplugged and 3 hours of usage (heavy browsing and messaging, didn't played a game) now at 27%. not bad for me.
[Vibrant Android Development] iynfynity:
can anyone confirm if their wifi is working? i don't have a wifi in my place so i can't test it.
