Honestly I've had the best luck with EL29. If you're set on a new kernel my best were FB27 FD10.
Let's go over this one more time.... (not trying to be an ass)
Any modem works on any rom. As to which modem is the best? Everyone reports different findings. I think it all matters on your location. The beautiful thing is you can try a different modem everyday till you find the one that works best for you

It really does matter on your location. For me, ALL the modems are useless. No signal. The one I use and "sometimes" have reception "1x" is EL29.
Start flashing away
modem i use
I also found that EL29 is best for me at my location. BX, NY
EL29 for me too. Though I will say there isn't much of a difference with any of them in my experience.

I agree 100%. Up to my opinion the signal is worst on the other modems
Sent from my SPH-D710 using XDA
Fe10 has a more consistent signal even in low signal areas for me. Not really any speed difference for me but I don't lose signal as often, but it all differs per user. What works best for you may not work best for others, even in the same area.

I put eg22 not sure if this is correct or not any help is appreciated
Sent from my SCH-I510 using XDA Premium App
It actually really depends on your location and phone. everyone gets different results with each modem. Me personally I use EC05 on any ROM. even EG22.
Just test each one til u see which is best?
Some one correct me if I am wrong but modems are not ROM dependent. I am running EE03 I think on Bonsai 4.1.3 I am thinking of going back to stock modem to try for better battery life.

You are correct Taz, modems are not ROM dependent. However for the EG22 leak ROMs I have found the EG22 modem works the best. Just about any modem on Froyo seems to work well. Some have reported more bars with certain modems but I always found I could have 1 bar then hold my phone a different way and get 3 in the same spot. No modem worked well in my house so I got an Airave.
To the OP...whatever works best for you since you are on froyo.
Thanks gentleman

Best answer you're gonna get.
ya man. I have great signal and everything on el29 some people have bad battery life on it. although I dont. but then others may have great everything including battery with el13 or ek02. when I run a new modem I make sure everything is the same version. but you dont have to. they can all be swapped and such. I just do it because I am anal about it. lol
You can't go wrong with EL29.
I have ran ek02 and el29 and I did not see any difference

I worried about some ppl claiming bad batt on EL29, but for me it improved everything. Signal and batt. ~shrug~
Sent from my calculator watch.
I tried EK02, then EL13, then EL26 and EL29, for me EL29 gets best data speeds, but never had any issues with signal on any of the modems..
I have also gotten the best data speeds on EL29.
Hey guys I was wondering what do the modems do for our phones?..
And please don't give me heat about using search or using google because I did both, just trying to get a general answer!! Thanks in advance

modem = radio
Modems are in charge of how your GPS, 4g, 3g and singles run. newer modems can show overall improvement on signal performance. but some are better than others depending on your phone. but normally newer modems run smoother then past modems.
The reason saying why some are better than others depending on your phone is because some modems react differently with this phone.
Lets say that we both put the new FC07 modem on our phones. you might experience better performance than I do. yet if I install the FC06 modem I might get better performance than the FC07 modem.
I have flashed a lot of Rom's, Kernels, and Modems and have always seen an improvement with the newer modems.
Hope this helped
I'm using an ics rom (cm9) to be exact and want to use FC07 modem.. my question is will I have to switch the modem if I decide to use a gingerbread rom again?.. will the modem screw with the signal? Thanks for the fast response

Having a modem that is ICS specific doesn't really matter when going back to Gingerbread. a kernel on the other hand from my experience.. I always got a hangup.. you should be fine when you are on a gingerbread Rom with a ICS modem

You can use any modem with whatever version of android you're running. I am on a GB version, running newest FC07 leak modem, works brilliant. (even though it seems that FC05 worked a bit better....) modems are completely independent of the version of android you're running.
Kernels are android version specific. GB kernels for GB roms, ICS kerns for ICS roms, they do not mix. unless you like bricks.
Thanks bro

Good basic adb usage there.
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.

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.

I was wondering which modem is the best when you want to extend your battery life.......... Thanks in advance
It will vary by phone and region but for me, EL29 has always been the best on both GB and ICS. You'll get different opinions though and in the end, choose what works best for you by trying more than one.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium
Im using El29 right now as well. I would say stay away from any ICS leaked modems, and run the latest stock modem (EL29).
i just been flashing modems but i haven't see any difference except battery drain

How much time are you giving the modem to settle in before flashing a new one?

2 days should be enough but battery drain isn't mainly due to a modem. Look for better battery stats here on xda and after you install it you should see what could be causing the drain.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium
You do not need to"settle in a modem". Just update PRL/PROF.
Done..
I also concur W/EAO. EL29 sofar for me has been the best. All other ICS leaked modems are crap..
EL29 really probably did have the best battery life but I just couldn't stand the LoS. Where I am signal os spotty so I had to flash new modems for signal upgrades.
Sent from my iPhone killer.
For me FC18 was my favorite and the fastest, but that leak made my battery drain fast. I'm on FE16 now, and it's just a tad bit slower than FC18 but still faster than EL29 and the battery life is amazing.

You obviously didn't try FC18 or FE16 because you wouldn't be saying that if you did.
I flashed the EL29 and it's been better than the otrhers so far.......
