Okay so I haven't been on in a bit and was a long time lurker....
currently on EE03 - looks like at least 2 in big talk right now - from what I saw didn't seem either is too stable...what is the current OTA modem? Is it the EF02, EF10 or are they both leaks?

Both ef02 and ef10 are leaks. When you update to the ef02 modem, you can ota to ef10. Ef02 is kind of unstable though. I get the best speeds on ef02 but its pretty unstable.

thanks...I appreciate the clarification on those 2...the option to OTA EF10 is odd to me though

Has anyone else noticed a decrease in your data speed with the EK02 modem?
With the EG30 modem, I get between 6-10mbps downloads consistently, currently with NewSenzationV1.5. I tried NewSenzationV1.7 and I was getting between 3-4mbps downloads. I then tried Calkulin's_E4GT_ROM 2.0.1 and got between 3-5mbps downloads.
Am I the only one getting these results?

Imr also seeing a decrese in speeds. I love everything about my phone with Calks 2.0 ROM but the slow speeds really suck! I'm torn...

I hope that's not the case. If it is, I will stay away from it when I get the opportunity to move. EG31 has been good to me and I live on 4g.

I have not seen any speed decreases on the EK02 kernel/roms, however, I am still running the EG31 modem. I'll keep an eye out for speed differences on the EK02 modem once I update, but I will likely wait until some of the XDA devs update their kernels and roms because I do not cherish getting Carrier IQ back with the OTA updates the next 10 days.

I updated my modem and my data speeds are back to normal. I now have the EK02 modem in stead of the EG30 modem. EK02 modem + EK02 kernel + EK02 ROM = 4g glory

I was wondering if anyone can help me with picking out a good modem I'm on dk28 right now thanks
Sent from my SPH-D700 using Tapatalk
I came from the dk28 build so I may be at your taste level.
The most stable build I am running right now is
the "old Marcusant ICS V4" with ei22 modem and the new samurai 3 kernel.
I added the gps fix and this phone runs awesome.
Better battery life, faster 3g, better bluetooth, gps works, etc.
it's like running the dk28 rom, but faster and better.
The old marcusant ics v4 thread is locked, but if you pm marcusant he may still have the download.

The newest is ussually the best but differs from device to device depending on your location etc. Ei22 is the latest but there are numerous such as ec05 ee03 ef02 eh17 eg22 the list goes on there's a sticky in development for modems to flash
Sent from my SPH-D700 using xda premium
Play with it.
I agree with Biggoron that it does differ from epic to epic, i found that my girlfriend likes the ei22 with legendary's rom.
She says its more to her taste and seems to run better on hers.
I always stick to released modems like EC05 and EI22. They work the best for me. Blew up too many leaked modems.
Was running CM9 alpha 2 on EI22 and the unit wasnt getting very hot, although the battery was draining.
Switched to CM9 Alpha4 and now on EL30 modem and noticing the phone is getting hotter although the battery life is improved... anyone else experiencing anything similar? Should I roll back to EI22 for Alpha4?

Then downgrade your modem to see if you experience the same effect. I don't think a modem will make your device hot. Are you tethering, overclocking the cpu or running graphic intensive apps?
Not tethering... Unfortunately the ei22 modem cannot be odind... I don't think.

That is correct. You have to Odin EC05 then do the flashable delta. Or you can run it with EC05 for a bit. A lot of people still rocking that EC05.

Hmm... I might consider the EC05. But I don't want to mess with deltas on an MTD.

The delta works fine on MTD. You just need the temp BML CWM 5 wtogami put out.

I suspect its actually the rom. I'm running stock el30 bml just rooted. And for the first time my phone is getting hot.
I'm just curious to know what modem do you run on your E4GT? To this date i run EL29, because i get the best DL/UP speed on average.
Been running the fc18 and it seems to work great. Only problems I have experienced are because things with ics are still in beta. I ran el29 up until I recently flashed fc18. I also had great up/dn with el29. Haven't speed tested fc18 yet...

FC18 currently on xplod SE ROM. Works good.
Also, fc18 on the Goodness v2.5. Seems best so far but it varies by phone/location

FC18 modem currently, fracking fantastic gps locks, in fact first time since I've owned that this phone has consistently locked throughout a whole day. In seconds. Every time. 6+ out of 6+ satellites.
Tentative opinion obviously. Tomorrow is a new day. ;-) but it seems like they got something right in this build, on the agps end anyway.
but 4G data seems not as strong as signal as FC15 perhaps. 3G works as expected.
Currently on Calkulins EL29.

EK02 saved my phone.
I was getting tired of GPS issues (among other issues) w/ a few other modems, but the combo of ek02 modem and kernel works wonders on my phone.
The battery life on fb 27's immaculate! Can't stay away now if I could get the speed of el29 I'd be perfect!
Tried all the modems and I think the EL29 works the best for me too.

I'm running EG30, personally I like LOS... Nah, I'm running FC18, best yet for me in Cali.
So I'm asking for sort of a review of smoothness and speed of the new fd roms compared to fc18 or fc22. Thanks for your input?

Hold off until fd05, which has already been leaked but not leaked widespread yet.

You will probably get different answers from everybody. I am still using FC15 myself

Exactly why I said hold off. There hasn't been a noticeable improvement since the mid fc15 builds.

I had some problems with FD02 but it may have been applications. Some applications would freeze the phone or sometime just bringing up messages would lock the phone up. I would just have to wait for lock screen, then unlock and see what crashed. The older versions seem slightly more stable in my experience.
If you are working fine, stable with FC22 there's no reason to be flash crazy. Right now they all have their own issues that seem to be a bit different for everyone.
Wait until a Beta finally shows up, or you hear a lot of rave about a certain new leak and try then.. but right now not 'much' is changing from one leak to another.
huge difference the fd05 is the smoothest release yet
definitely flash
I normally don't upgrade til at least three builds newer are out if that makes sense. Unless there is a huge improvement. I am on FD02 and will most likely stay on it until FD10 is released, if it is released. If you are on a setup right now and its working for you. Hang tight. Cause as soon as you flash FD02/05 then FD10 will be out. Just my thoughts on it.
Are you guys talking about Modem or Kernel?
I have been running the FD10 Modem and Kernel on a FD02 build for the last few days and honestly it seems silky smooth for me. No scripts or undervolting at this point and so far I am getting good battery life out of it too.
I'm on calkulin's E4GT2 v.1.4. (FD02). The only bugs I've seen are that some apps aren't compatible, and the sound notification issue. It doesn't support boot animations and i wouldn't chance flashing any themes. It does support different launchers like go launcher so you can theme it that way. Other than that it is very smooth and solid with EVERYTHING else working including hotspot. Good battery life and no over heating. Came from blazer 4.1 which is awesome and very customizable but caused some battery issues. Although there is a stick FD10 posted in the Dev section, there aren't any custom Roms running on FD10. So I'm gonna stick with Calkulins fdo2 until i see something better. I have tried the goodness and its also good but only 4g hotspot. I need 3g so it was a no.go. Hope this was helpful and as far as SOLID ROMS GO Calkulins are the beast! Thanks calk for all you do. Always go with him first. Sent from my E4GTouch myself oh baby i love this phone

im on aokp with fd02 kernel and modem, best battery life i have ever seen on my device, also the smoothest ive seen, but its the only 4.0.4 i have ran. The fd02 modem doesnt seem all that great for me though, having more problems in low coverage areas than before. as in it didnt work where it used to kinda barely work.
FC24 modem + 4.1 blazer ROM = perfection.

I will second that. I was using fd05 with decent results but the battery life suffered. Atleast for me fc24 was great signal and great battery too.
