I'm on sacs Rom currently so I'm not sure but does anyone know if the Wimax update on calks thread is necessary. I also switch between calks and sacs hd roms so if the update is necessary, is it also necessary for calks roms?

If you mean the newest radio then yes....probably a good idea to always have the latest radio.

radio's are ROM independent so if possible and they work for you (not a promise newer radios will work better for your device) upgrade them as they are available

He had it deleted because xHausx posted the stock rooted ROM 1st... plus he wasnt feeling well.. there are the odex and de-odex versions up
thanks man....i should know this but I dont...whats the diffetence between the two? again ty
one more thing...im so confused I dont know where to start if I want to try this...im on konis e3 if that helps...again thanks, if u dont want to help and give a walk thru I understand
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
The deodexed version is themeable, the odex version has a slightly faster boot time and uses less space in system. That's the quick and dirty answer, anyway. If you want to modify it at all, flash the deodexed version, otherwise just flash the odexed version.
You're going to flash it the same way you'd flash any other rom. Follow the directions in the thread, I'm not sure if you'll need to flash the updated radios, etc. If you don't know how to flash a rom - I know you have a custom rom installed, but a lot of people have someone else root/flash for them - there should be a walkthrough floating around somewhere. If you need help or just want clarification, shoot me a pm. I have a fairly lengthy write up on everything to do with rooting/flashing/recovery/etc, I'd be happy to send you that or help you out.

The wimax, prl, and radio are optional; they will update what the are supposed to. You'll only brick your phone if you do a battery pull/battery dies during an update of the radio. You don't have to update any of those if you don't want to, but just wipe the cache and dalvik, then flash if you want to.
thank man...whats the benefit of updating those, which kernal should I use andwhats I hear its sense 1.0?
arent we on like 2.0 something?

Nothing really besides having an updated connection possibilities...PRI can affect your battery, but if its good, no need to change it. Yea, its sense 1.0, and there are sense 3.0 roms out there.
why would an upgrade downgrade like it did? whar the difference between 3 and 1¿

Update the Wimax radio it helps. For example at my house before the update I was not able to get any Wimax signal. But after the update I now get between one bar. Better then nothing I guess haha

I'm sure this is a stupid question, but I'd like to be sure.
You can only use a ROM that was made for your modem, as in EC05 or EG22 or any of the others, correct?
You can use any modem for any Rom from my understanding
Ex. I used to use ee03 modem for a ef02 Rom for better battery life

Ef02 is the build number for epic firmwares
Ef02(gingerbread v2.3.3)
Ec05(froyo v2.2)
The newest firmware is EG22, which is gingerbread v2.3.4

If I'm not mistaken the 2.1 modems aren't to be used with 2.2 and 2.3 builds. For Froyo and Gingerbread DK28 and anything that starts with an E is safe to use.

Why bother with the OTA? It breaks recovery. Just flash an EI22 ROM. Flash the EC05 to EI22 modem delta if you want that.
Do you have a stock one you recommend? I am looking for as close to what sprint has released as I can. I found the modem, just need the rest of gingerbread now.

Clean GB would be basic. I think the links are still up for the ACS deodexed ROM stock from the OTA. It basically had the GPS fix in it. I am on Legendary 4.01 and it is awesome.

Kinda want to stick with touchwiz (yes I know I am a gluton for punishment). So if I want 2.3 I get this feeling I am going to have to learn this ROM world. Yay...

If you mean you can flash a GB ROM from EC05 then yes or if you mean the EC05 modem works on GB ROMs then also yes. There is a EC05toEI22 modem delta flashable in the Development forum stickies.
Found what I needed from kennyglass 123
One click roots do not work on Gingerbread. It would have been easier to flash a GB prerooted ROM while still on Froyo like this one:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...=deodexed+EI22
Now that she did the OTA you will need to follow this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...=root+OTA+EI22
I got gingerbread loaded I will look into the modem and the gps fixs later.
Thanks guys for your help!

I'm coming from cm10 and I'm going to flash zedomaxs high on android rom and I read I needed a stock modem to go along with it since it's basically a stock rom and there's so many which do I chose since coming from cm10??? Any help appreciated
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda premium
Actually its not the modem. Those should work with any of the roms here. You are thinking of the kernel I believe. Theres only a few to choose from and it boils down to preference.
If you are going to the UVALH2 update or later, you will need a purely stock kernel. Custom ones aren't working yet.

There is a new flashable radio from jelly bean leak..
Ok now that I'm confident in my ability to flash ROMS and Kernels in the new Linux 3.0 & 3.4 versions that came with JB, is there anyone who could help me out with finding modems and flashing them and what each modem is for and etc? I really don't understand the new system as i came over from the OG EVO and from what i understand thus far, its not exactly the same as flashing radios as it was with GB or ICS. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Tried looking through stickies but couldnt find anything.

Posts #1 through #5 where you will find links to modems. LJ7 and MD4 seem to work best. But these devices are not like HTC devices so don't put that much concern into it.

Won't really work on the S3... Best and easiest thing to do is make a nandroid then flash tw rom update prl and profile and then restore nandroid

Ok, was just curious about that. I know about the nandroid backup and all. Its basically the same as it was with the old aosp/sense system. But thanks a lot for your help. And hopefully I'll see an improvement in my signal strength and quality. Do you have any other tips that could help?

Nope other than stick to TW roms, signal strength will be better and lte, 3g exchange is much better.

Yea well it wouldnt make too much of a difference with 3G and LTE considering I'm in an area that doesnt have LTE coverage yet. And just curious here, but the synergy port from verizon IS considered a TW rom right?
Sent from my SPH-L710 using xda premium
yeah no lte it makes no difference. I don't know about synergy but just look in the OP it's either TW, AOSP or AOKP. If you don't have to flash gapps it's TW.

Since the update to the 3.4.x kernel the scripts don't work anymore. Flash a TW ROM and follow those instructions
