ONLY FLASH RADIOS IF YOU ARE A T-MOBILE CUSTOMER!!!!!YOU MAY REGRET IT IF YOU DO NOT HEED THIS WARNING!!!!!CONSIDER YOURSELF WARNED!!!!
DISCLAIMER:
Flashing radios on your phone should not be done if you do not understand what the modem/radio is! Yes, it is a simple flash, BUT, if you do mess it up somehow, it can at best prevent you from obtaining a signal, and at worst possibly brick your device!!! IF YOU ARE NOT ON T-MOBILE, DO NOT FLASH!!!! If you have a different device (T999V) or are with a different carrier (such as Sprint, Wind, etc) T-Mobile radios will NOT work!
I have tested this on my own device with no issues, however, you flash at your own risk!
T-Mobile GS3 Modem/RadioBaseband = UVLI4
This is the radio which came with the update UVALI4, released Sept. 7, 2012.
Download and flash this from TWRP or CWM Recovery
TMobileGS3_UVLI4_Modem.zip
Note: Flashing the above file will backup your current radio. HOWEVER, If you flash it again, it will write over the backup.
To restore this backup, flash the file below.
Download and flash this from TWRP or CWM Recovery
TMOGalaxyS3RestoreModem.zip
The above file will flash the backup created by the first. It is the same as provided by Wildchld with previous releases, so again thanks and credit to him!
(I didn't see any reason to reinvent the wheel!)
Note: As stated previously by Wildchld, the Modem Restore zip file should be placed somewhere on your INTERNAL sdcard, else it may not see the modem.backup file.
Up to this point Wildchld has provided us with pretty much all our modem needs, so as always, thanks to him!
Being that his flashable radios have worked so well for everyone, I have basically just used one of his previous updates to create this one. I simply replaced the old radio with the new, and edited the script to match. This will work (backup and all) the same as previous releases.
All credit for the work goes to Wildchld so please thank him when you see him!
Also credit to mercado79 for the updater-script as stated by Wild in his thread.
The T-Mobile Modem Flasher by clark44 should be updated with this modem later (I'm hoping!). Be on the lookout! In the meantime it is an excellent way to test each modem for best performance in your area and on your phone!
Thank you for getting this out so fast!! T999UVALI2 is now out.. dated Sep 3rd. Glad to see them putting in some work.. hopefully they do the same for JB.
holy **** my data speed never been faster...in here houston texas 20mbs
In Dallas, hopefully the same lol

Sorry about that man...ill have a look to see if I can figure out why. Guess they must've changed things and I didn't realize it. Ill find somewhere else if need be.
But first, gotta sleep! You guys should get UVALI2 very soon btw. If Wildchld doesn't release Ill see if I cant get it out soon.

Kk guys, uploading to megaupload now...this is definitely gonna take a while
It should be a complete phone image, writing over every partition (as is the case with all Samsung tars)...there's definitely a modem in it, but as far as pulling it, I don't know, I'm not knowledgeable enough about pulling things out of tars.
I'm going to put a link in here first before posting it up in development because I need somebody to test it in Odin. We use a pre-packaged .exe here to flash phones, so Im not able to test it with Odin (though I can't foresee it failing as the tars have always been identical to the ones we use here at xda). So when it's up, please test and let me know.
Hang tight for a while, megauploads quoting the ETA at 2 hours....
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium
I think it would definitely be cool to upload this for us. Easy way for everyone to flash back to factory. Might even root now if this is the correct stock file.
Actually scratch that ETA, our neighbors wifi is too slow, I'm gonna have to wait until I get home at 6. So sometime tonight

Ya I agree with you. This is my only device and if I were to brick it I would be F**ked and my wife would KILL ME while i was sleeping. I thought i would at least put the option out there. I want to do my part to enhance development is all my intention is. I think the risk is Low to moderate in terms of actually bricking a device but I always expect the worse and hope for the best. Like I said I would rather be 100% honest then Lie and someone god forbid brick there device. If no one wants to take the risk I will have no choice but to suck it up and risk my own death at the hands of my wife. Lord help me

whats the difference vs the i1?
a little bit of improvement on my end. I had 4 bars before the flash and tested at 18748kbps/2870kbps. After the flash I had three bars (same location), ran two tests. the first spiked to 26mbps but ended at 21mbps with a 1.6mbps upload. the second test didn't quite make it to 20mbps but finished at 17mbps with a 1.6mbps upload.
We don't really know, samsung releases radios we flash them, some work better some don't. There isn't really a change log for a radio or anything like that that I know of so we can see what's new. Just better optimization I guess

It has a little better download speed for me, I tested under the same signal conditions but the only other thing I noticed was with UVIL1 was every time I connected my S3 to my pc it said device not recognized even after rebooting pc and s3 I even reflashed to stock then reflashed to UVAHL2 then UVIL1 and same problem flashed back to stock again then flashed to UVALH2 and then flashed to UVIL2 and problem solved as well as a little download speed increase over UVIL1 so maybe samsung caught a bug, fixed it and re released it as UVALI2? :thumbup: .

Even with official releases the changelogs we get are pretty much worthless.
Everyone will have different results with each radio. It can depend on location, hardware, rom, apps installed, etc. Mostly location though, in my experience. Some folks will still get their best speeds using the UVLG1 radio! Its up to each one of you to determine for yourselves whats best for you.
Im glad you guys are starting to get your downloads to go through. Ill still find another host. Won't hurt to have two!

Update: Just flashed this over MiUi and this is actually the first i've seen HSPA+: 15 signal on my S3 ever. Even on stock TW roms i would only get HSPA:11.
Awesome radio for sure.
Thanks for sharing this so fast to us Doc.
LI1 is MUCH better for me.
Using LI2, my download speed is pretty much halved.

ONLY FLASH RADIOS IF YOU ARE ON A
T-MOBILE NETWORK!!!!!
YOU MAY REGRET IT IF YOU DO NOT HEED THIS WARNING!!!!!
CONSIDER YOURSELF WARNED!!!!
DISCLAIMER:
Flashing radios on your phone should not be done if you do not understand what the modem/radio is! Yes, it is a simple flash, BUT, if you do mess it up somehow, it can at best prevent you from obtaining a signal, and at worst possibly brick your device!!! IF YOU ARE NOT ON T-MOBILE, DO NOT FLASH!!!! If you have a different device (T999V) or are with a different carrier (such as Sprint, Wind, etc) T-Mobile radios will NOT work!
I have tested this on my own device with no issues, however, you flash at your own risk!
T-Mobile GS3 Modem/Radio
Baseband = UVLI3
This is the radio which came with the unofficial JB update/leak UVDLI3, released Sept. 5, 2012.
Download and flash this from TWRP or CWM Recovery
TMobileGS3-UVLI3-Modem.zip
Note: Flashing the above file will backup your current radio. HOWEVER, If you flash it again, it will overwrite the backup.
To restore this backup, flash the file below.
Download and flash this from TWRP or CWM Recovery
TMOGalaxyS3RestoreModem.zip
The above file will flash the backup created by the first. It is the same as provided by Wildchld with previous releases, so again thanks and credit to him!
(I didn't see any reason to reinvent the wheel!)
Note: As stated previously by Wildchld, the Modem Restore zip file should be placed somewhere on your INTERNAL sdcard, else it may not see the modem.backup file.
Up to this point Wildchld has provided us with pretty much all our modem needs, so as always, thanks to him!
Being that his flashable radios have worked so well for everyone, I have basically just used one of his previous updates to create this one. I simply replaced the old radio with the new, and edited the script to match. This will work (backup and all) the same as previous releases.
All credit for the work goes to Wildchld so please thank him when you see him!
Also credit to mercado79 for the updater-script as stated by Wild in his thread.
The T-Mobile Modem Flasher by clark44 should be updated with this modem later. Be on the lookout! It is an excellent way to test each modem for best performance in your area and on your phone!

Damn, these radios/leaks are coming out faster than I can flash!
They must be making good progress on touchwiz jellybean though! I'm very excited for that!
First of all thanks for all these, but only request is to please include MD5 with the radios.

Download link isn't working for me, I've clicked it at least five times, and tried again from within the browser. Just redirects me to the minus home page

Peoria, and yes I was getting about 25 down right out of the box on touchwiz. But as far as CM10 is concerned, these speeds are pretty decent.

I still think there is funny business with CM10 and the Speedtest.net app though. I just tethered from my S3 to my iPad2 and then ran the Speedtest.net iOS app. I got 23down and 3.4up.

Bizarre! Link won't work on my phone, but first click works on my desk top.
I had to click the link 2 times from my phone in order to get to the actual download site.
I've never had good reception at my girlfriends apartment, but on UVLI2 I pulled two bars and a 3.5mbps down, and .5mbps up. Which honestly, is damn good for here! I'm used to ZERO bars and having to walk around to get any type of data through.
On UVLI3 I have two bars and 3mbps down and .6mbps up.
So, no improvement to report. At my place I regularly pull 20mbps down and 2.5-3mbps up. I'll run another test when I'm at home and report back.
No improvement for me here in Houston, TX
LI1 is still the best modem for me.
Westchase area.
Flashed with no issues, thank you

So if using chrome before clicking the download link hit menu and then check the request desktop site option then click the link.
Going back to LI2...this new one is much slower.
