I found jvk great for battery, especially in idle ....

Sent from me to you.

[Captivate Android Development] sicmadek:
I found jvk to be the all around best
[Captivate Android Development] grkmaster:
I feel that on the 2.3.3 roms, idleness on the modems seems to be alot better than before. Ive used KC1 and JP9 and both have been great on idle. On 2.2.1 and JP9 i didnt have that much luck while idling
[Captivate Android Development] :
Im not sure on a 2.3.3 rom, but on 2.2.1 JVK was not near as good for me as JQ1... so Im wondering how JQ1 is on a 2.3.3 rom...
[Captivate Android Development] MPKO:
Still the best :-)
[Captivate Android Development] JayFReaZy:
For everyone having a good experience with JVK, are all of you running gingerbread or are you guys still on 2.2.1?

parameters on the secret code screens for gsm status:

UMTS: HOME (CS+PS)

Shows what kind of subscription your phone and sim is supporting. CS= circuit switch (normally used for voice calls) PS= packet switch (data services)

RRC State:

"RRC" comes from words radio resource connection. In 2G there is basically only two state ( DCH and idle), but in 3G/HSDPA there can be four state (DCH, FACH, PCH and idle) depending of the Network vendor.

DCH: dedicated channel.State when you are using network resources e.g. browsing.

FACH: Forward access channel. When you stop browsing and network detects inactivity, mobile is send to this stage. Designed mainly to save resources in the network.

PCH: Paging channel: After inactivity in FACH channel your mobile is send to this state. Mobile is lisening only the paging channel and in case of data activity mobile can be moved to really fast to Dedicated channel via FACH channel. Battery consumption around same than in idle state

Idle: Idle state: Mobile is lisening BCCH channel (broadcast channel).

In case of SGS the Fast dormancy is used most of the time what basically means that phone decides to overrule FACH and PCH state by sending a signalling connection release before network is able to move Mobile to FACH or PCH stage. Telecom software of the Mobile is doing this to save battery life. So most of the time you will see only DCH and IDLE states in practice.

WCDMA BAND: 2100, 1900, 1800, 900, 850 ... : used bandwidth in Mhz

Reg PLMN: Puplic Land Mobile area. This is broadcasted by the network and every network has an unic value in use.

Freq DL: DL frequency in hz

Freq UL: UL frequency in hz

CELL id (hex): Every cell in mobile network has an unic cell id.

LAC (hex): Location area code. Location area is an area which is defined by the operator. Every phone does periodical loacation

area updates. For e.g. when someone tries to call you the network needs to know where you are that call can be connected. LAC value

defines the area where you are located.

PSC: Primary scrambling code. long code that is used to identify a specific cell from the common pilot channel signal.

RSCP: received signal code power.Average power of the received signal after despreading and combining, if only signal power is

Just flashed to JVK to test it out but seem to be having some trouble. When I choose the 850 band it says "menu not exist", however the other 3 bands are selected, is there something I'm doing wrong?
[Captivate Android Development] :
When you go into the Band Selection section, select automatic. Then back out and go back into Band Selection and choose combi bands and select WCDMA 850 (this will add 850).

Now if you just want to have WCDMA 850 and no other bands... back out and go back into Band Selection for a third time and now you can select WCDMA 850 and it will be the only one selected, forcing your phone to be only on 850.
[Captivate Android Development] JayFReaZy:
that did the trick, thank ya! :D
[Captivate Android Development] :
No prob, glad I could help. Enjoy your 850. :)
[Captivate Android Development] Johnsondr80:
Ok' this is offically driving me nuts; How come some of the user's of my rom "Fusion 1.9" built on the kb1 source, with a kb1 modem have "RAT" in service mode and others do NOT?

I am one of the ones that have "RAT" and I have tried everything, the modem dance, diffrent kb1 modem cwm's from diffrent places, even a modem.bin from someone who did not have "RAT".

And some say its the towers in my area, but thats wrong because I flash a jk4 and I have band selection, set 850, flash kb1 and back to "RAT" stuck on 1900.

And some say its device, but I asked around and people with the same build (1008) couple of them had "RAT" and two didnot.

I've ran out of reasons to debunk and still no answer.

Anyone here have an idea for me to explore, or an answer as to why?

Thanks, I just want to unravel the mystery, and make band selection possable on kb1 for everyone.

I'm on the darky 10 RC5.3 rom with the jve gingerbread modem on the Rogers network. When I flashed it though, I was on another modem kc1 froyo on darky 9.5 rom. I didnt do the modem trick stated in the OP cuz I forgot but I still have signal except it fluctuates a lot and I suspect doesn't switch to the wcdma 850mhz because even when I have only that band enabled, it uses 1900 (tested using *#0011#)

Thing is darkys 10 is 2.3.3. Is there a way I can enable the band proberly without having to go back to a 2.2.1 rom and doing that modem trick in the op? Any gingerbread ones that have it enabled by default?

And if possible, could I still use the froyo modem to do the trick without reverting to a froyo rom?

I suspect this because aafter en

EDIT: nvmind kc1 works. Gone back to it. Will modem dance now..

How is the reception with the gingerbread modems??

[Captivate Android Development] MaxRabbit:
I may be silly here, but what is the reason for new flashable modems? I flashed JVK on v5 just fine from the original zip files.
[Captivate Android Development] harpo1:
Which revision of contiuum 5 was it? Since cezar went to existz kernel with CWM3 you need the new modem zips.
[Captivate Android Development] timn2bama:
Can you do the KP1 modem to?
[Captivate Android Development] kobik77:
Will these zip files work for I9000?
[Captivate Android Development] harpo1:
They should as long as you're using CWM3.
[Captivate Android Development] kobik77:
Thnx
[Captivate Android Development] iXNyNe:
These cwm3 modem packages should be backwards compatible to devices using cwm2.5 though correct? Also these should be cm7 compatible yes?

I am not too sure about CM7, most of them are compatible with CMW2 (I have not tested all of them on CWM2) , but I would recommend using the ones on page 1 for that, they are for sure compatible.

Are there any modems that work with Build Versions like 1006 that have signal drops with I9000 modems? I have a 1006 build and want to flash Continuum 5 but I don't want to lose my signal after a few hours.
[Captivate Android Development] :
For the few people asking and for anyone who was wondering, JQ1 works FANTASTIC on a 2.3.3 rom... so you're not limited to just JVE or JVK.

Side note: You still have to do Shoman's happy dance to get JQ1 to function on WCDMA 850 (link to the post is in his signature).
[Captivate Android Development] MaxRabbit:
With RC3 of Continuum v5, is the modem dance necessary for JVK?
[Captivate Android Development] SweetwaterBurns:
Yes.
[Captivate Android Development] :
Sorry, didnt see your reply...

I would say yes since I had to for JQ1 and JVK is in the same boat as JQ1.
[Captivate Android Development] alexige:
Don't mean to contridict and confuse people but I did not have to do the dance for this. If you want to just to be sure then ok but its not necessary.
[Captivate Android Development] mrhaley30705:
Anyone have a CWM3 zip of jq1?
[Captivate Android Development] LNJ:
Shoman and I tried from TDVJP9 which is the default RC3 modem direct to JVK and 850mhz worked.

So no dance necessary.

But just to be safe, make sure you are getting 850mhz firsy before going to JVK.

Any chance we will be getting the new KD1 modem? Id love to try it out.
[Captivate Android Development] H3llstorm:
I just recently switched from Serendipity (Froyo-based) to GR-9 (Gingerbread-based), and I couldn't get a decent GPS lock with JVK.

With BVJJPG, the GPS locks faster and is more accurate, and the phone is at least as good - if not marginally better - at WCDMA 850.
[Captivate Android Development] shoman94:
WHere is that one?
[Captivate Android Development] VanThePimpMan:
I saw a picture of the About Phone on someones Nexus S running 2.3.4 and they were running the KD1 modem, no idea where to acquire it from though.

Picture in question. (http://i52.tinypic.com/vie2wz.png)
[Captivate Android Development] alexige:
Nexus S modems wont work with our phone I don't think. I know we can use GT-I9000 modems cause of the reorient kernel.

Actually to tag on to this...how can we use modems like for the 9033 or w.e the chinese phone that's close to us. Are the kernels just so close that we can get away with it? Just alittle curious because I'm think the age old rule use I9000 modems with I9000 kernels.

Im sure this has been answered but this question got me thinking at 1:30am.
[Captivate Android Development] VanThePimpMan:
Ahhhh I see, I got excited when I saw I90XX and was hoping for a new modem. I jumped the gun there.
[Captivate Android Development] H3llstorm:
I may have discovered a new "modem dance" for Gingerbread ROMs (I've only tried it on GR-10, so YMMV):

UGJK4 > BUJS1 > UGKC1

GR-10 comes with UGJK4.

It was reported that there was a compass calibration bug in the Gingerbread ROMs. After flashing BUJS1, my phone correctly indicated NSE&W.

I'm getting the best phone & GPS reception/accuracy with UGKC1. Again, YMMV.

Does anyone have a js1 CM3 ZIP? Thanks
[Captivate Android Development] kobik77:
You can use this excellent amend2edify tool to convert CWM2 compatible zip files to CWM3 compatible ones

[Captivate Android Development] slayp00n:
can i flash kc1 or jvk with CM7? Any special considerations?

How do they compare in battery signal and prefoamnce the JK4?
[Captivate Android Development] madmack:
I'm running jvk on cm7. no problemo

just make sure you have the right cwm file because cm7 flashes these radios differently than stock roms.
[Captivate Android Development] slayp00n:
How are you finding battery and signal compared to JK4 which has previously been the 'money radio'?

Where is the cm7 flash-able zip?
[Captivate Android Development] madmack:
I don't really have a definitive answer to that given the status of cm7 and the fact that I haven't really tested any other modem on that rom.
[Captivate Android Development] ppalbicke:
Gave you a thanks on this one. Did the change with GR11 and everything is working great. Soild reception in Chicago.

Hi guys, my phone is on battery for 14 hours and Cell Standby takes 18% of the battery usage. Is it good or bad?

[Captivate Android Development] zuN!:
One issue I have with JVK is that you won't have 850MHz as a band because you can't do the "modem dance" and anything set during the Samsung ROM to ensure 850MHz doesn't get carried over to CM7.

Search in the CM7 thread, someone posted it there
[Captivate Android Development] madmack:
the "modem dance" actually worked for me on cm7.

I know spots in town that only get 850mhz. so did the modem dance there
[Captivate Android Development] ceribik:
How did you do the modem dance (mentioned http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=12156313&postcount=438 ) if you cannot access the band selection menu (on CM7)?
[Captivate Android Development] shoman94:
Like he mentioned.... go to a spot that only has 850. I do it like that all the time.
[Captivate Android Development] ceribik:
And if i don't have spots with only 850 mhz...?
[Captivate Android Development] shoman94:
So you have no way of seeing what freq you are on.
[Captivate Android Development] ceribik:
Well not precisely, but i can tell based off signal strength + bandwidth availability (dl speed) due to the nature of my mobile carrier's network.
[Captivate Android Development] madmack:
yea, that won't be enough. You need to go to a place where you ONLY get 850MHz (the basement in my apartment building in my case). Then do the dance baby. :D
[Captivate Android Development] andrewdroid:

[Captivate Android Development] GGXtreme:
Can anyone recommend a modem that sticks to 850MHz like glue while still using Automatic Band Selection? I've tried UGJL2, TLJL3, UGJK3, UGJK4, ZNKP1, BVJJPG, TDVJP9, UGKC1, UCKB1 and XXJVK. While JL3 gives me the best results by far, I still get lots of drops in signal (ServiceMode indicating that the phone has for some stupid reason switched to the weaker 1900MHz signal). I can force 850MHz only and get great reception with almost any modem, but I still want the phone to switch to 1900MHz when there is a GOOD signal.
[Captivate Android Development] devz3r0:
Sorry for being away guys, my wife just gave birth to our first child so I've been preoccupied for the passed couple of weeks. I have been putting all the modems together in different versions and I will update the OP when time allows.

I switched from kc1 to dvjp9 on serendipity 6.3 with speedmod kernel. kc1 was great until I tried it on my third captivate. It would have a hard time connecting and would drop calls like mad when I use GSM only. dvjp9 is doing great.

My question is can phones with different build numbers and different modems act this way? It has never happened before. Could it have been a network problem or even a phone hardware problem?

This also happened with kp1

Thank you for reading

never mind, I called ATT and they reset the simm card or phone or something. Seems fine now. Did not know I had to do this with the replacement phones?

I have been using JVO for a couple hours and I can already say it likes to jump between Edge, 3G, and H+ very much. Right now it seems to be stuck on Edge unless I toggle flight mode. At home it has jumped between 3G and H+ to many times to count. KC1 never jumped around this much.

Opinions on the "best" modem for voice quality

Greetings all-

As someone who puts a premium on voice quality, I've tried several different modems. From what I've read, JQ1 gets top honors, but what I've read is now old (in terms of how fast things change around here). JVK came out not too long ago, and I'm wondering what people think about it.

I've noticed, too, that data speeds seem to suffer on the modems that have higher voice quality, and vice-versa. Must it always be a tradeoff?

LLaP
[Captivate Android Development] Felixpau86:
Try jp9 or jpo.
[Captivate Android Development] :
JQ1 is still a winner for me. The best voice quality, GPS is one of the best I've seen, battery life is amazing and I get the absolute beat signal... so I'm a big supporter of JQ1.
[Captivate Android Development] grkmaster:
My data has suffered a bit with JVO and a couple times I have had some static in my calls. Seems to be great on battery though
[Captivate Android Development] halfsoul:
No, these are for I9000-based ROMs, which Cognition is not. These are compatible with Perception though.

Edit: typo
[Captivate Android Development] thindery:
Actually you can run these modems with cognition if you install an i9000 based kernel. I'm running 3.04 w/ the latest speedmod kernel for the captivate. I downloaed the jl2 modem and it seems to work fine. I haven't had a chance to talk to anyone yet but when I went to someones voicemail I heard it just fine.

I needed an i9000 modem to go with the speedmod kernel because there was echo when I talked to people. Hopefully it is resolved now. :cool:
[Captivate Android Development] halfsoul:
Yes, I should have said I9000-based KERNELS. Thanks for clarifying.
[Captivate Android Development] cocchiararo:
I9088ZNKP1 is great, at least for signal/reception.

my girlfriends house used to net me CERO edge bars (and it never went to GPRS), and over night, service usually went down, and i had to reboot my phone to get it going again. (she lives in a low signal place, within some sort of a bunker house :P).

My other phones (motorola milestone, nexus one), all worked fine (with EDGE) in there. Her iphone4 actually catches 3g inside.

with this new radio, i have stron 3G signal, and good speeds.

havent tested more than that yet, but.. so far, so good XD

this is on a i9000T, running JPY and speedmod kernel.

[Captivate Android Development] india23:
For those of you wondering about the KP1 modem, I have been using it for the past couple of day. Here is my battery usage breakdown:

1d 21h 36m 35s since unplugged (I also unplugged this at about 94% battery life)

Display - 67% | 2h 47m 33s

Cell Standby - 14% | 1d 19h 26m 1s

Voice calls - 9% | 27m 44s

Phone idle - 7% | 1d 18h 49m 2s

Wifi - 2% | 1h 59m 41s

I currently have 17% remaining. The call quality is really good and I am on AT&T. I changed the band selection to GSM 850 only and disabled HSDPA. This way I am ony the GPRS network. The ROM is Precsion 1.01

Hope this helps.
