You can use any modem (radio) you want on any ROM. But if you want to change your modem anyway go into Development section In the stickies and look in the roll up sticky thread for the modems one.

There is instructions on the development section. I'd link you but I'm on my epic, away from a computer.... you are going to have to search the threads for upgrading to ei22 from a rooted froyo rom, its easy though.

at first, i were like you
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!

Need to flash the kernel too?

Awesome job on the ROM as always! Sucessfully flashed the ROM and the latest modem bin.
Only question: on the first post of the CleanGB thread, there is a link to the CleanGB kernel (in addition to full version). Do I need to flash that as well?

No the kernel is included in the rom for Clean GB. Next time post within the Clean GB thread and ask. Also seems like maybe your new to this so be very careful! You may always send me a message if you have question about your phone. I'd rather help people before they mess up there phone than after it becomes a paperweight

Unfortunately, I don't have the privs to post in the Epic4G Android Development forum where I could have asked directly on the thread. Hence, the reason I asked here instead.

jn, dont' worry , it's cool... travis might have forgotten thats what the q/a thread is for. it takes sometime to learn your way around here.
The kernel in the full version of the latest CleanGB ROM shows a different version number than the link to the kernel only flash file.
That was the other thing that prompted my question.

UVALH2

So I feel as if after the OTA UVALH2 update my network signal has gotten worse. Before at home I was able to maintain a ping around 80ms-90ms. Now it maintains around 110ms-120ms.
How would I go about going back to the previous version?
Rooted, Stock Rom.
Have you tried the modems available in dev section?
To go back just use odin, or flash a stock rom from dev section. I think MrRobinson still has UVALEM if you want to use that to keep root.

UVALEM was what was before UVALH2? Can you link me to that?
If your rooted, try the modem flashing tool:

UVALEM was the original, out of the box, stock build. UVALH2 is the only official update released.
MrRobinsons thread is here:

Its usually pretty close to the top in development.

Flashing modems?

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.

This thread will guide you http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=38172219
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.

Ok thanks for the help. About updating the PRL on AOSP roms though.... I downloaded the script and ran the scripts using script manager exactly as the guide said to do so, but i cant enter diagnostics mode. Any idea why?

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
Sent from the future via Tapatalk 4
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?
Sent from my SPH-L710 using xda premium
Nope other than stick to TW roms, signal strength will be better and lte, 3g exchange is much better.
Sent from the future via Tapatalk 4
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.

All AOSP are 3.4 kernel's now. CM needs MD4 to flash. It's in freeza's thread

I flashed the md4 after edfunkycold told me where to find and DL them. But i am on md4 modem and am running cm. It IS on the 3.4 but the scripts still dont work so im just going to do the touchwiz trick.

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