This. I'm on Telus and I get a way better signal with the Blaze radio. Your best bet is to try them all extensively and see what works the best for your phone/network/location.

Seems you are on Jelly Bean. Then you may try the LE1 radio. That's for ICS.

Where did u get your modems from... I been looking and I can't find it

Considering how big New York is, their might not be a clear answer. Best thing is to flash them one by one, and find out for yourself.

Since am also in NYC of them all that I've tested to be so called the "best" is the note radio uvlg3 then the newest uvlh5 blaze radio..

Sit on your couch. Download a few radios, get the signal strength app, flash a radio, check your dBm and download speeds.
This sort of thing varies for everyone and there is never a clear cut answer.

Has anyone tried embryo 6?

I'm just curious whether or not anyone ha tried embryo 6 on the t989.
i also wonder how well it runs compared to jedi jelly or tweak wiz.

Did you guys flash another radio than what's in the Rom? I thought this Rom wouldn't work with our phone unless we flash a t-mobile radio but I'm able to make calls without flashing.

The radio included WILL work, you just won't get HSPA+. You'll only get EDGE.

4g LTE After Jelly Bean

With ICS I couldn't get even 1 4g BAR at work. Finally on JB and I have full strength at work . No wonder sprint waited so long. They were squeezing our bandwidth by device and OS.

It took a while to load a Web page and would oscillate between 3g and 4g. Now it's stable and fast. My 3g seems more useful too whereas before 3g was equivalent to no data at all.

The new radio is a lot better. I have considerably better speeds up to almost two megabits down on evdo. The statement that the os itself probably didn't change a ton except how the speeds are reported is true though.

Seems like they would've addressed the inferior radios before JB. Makes me think it was a form of throttling.
Sent from my LG-LS970 using xda app-developers app

Took HTC and Sprint forever to address the lousy radio on the EVO3d when it was released. I was surprised when I went from a Transform to a 3d and was surprised by the slower loading webpages... Yeah not a fun experience to get a faster phone to be hobbled by the actual firmware.

They probably try to do as few otas as possible, to minimize costs and technical errors. Perhaps Qualcomm released new stuff, but I doubt sprint, one of the slower networks, would want to throttle their devices.

Radios can make your performance worse as well. Perhaps flash an old one from zv7,8, or 9
Sent from my LG-LS970 using xda app-developers app

Yes they can, my phone did not want to send text messages after the JB ota, and my 4g signal sucked too.
Does anyone have flashable radios from ICS that i can flash onto this ****ty jelly bean update?

Hmm there may not be any then. I hadn't seen any, but hoped perhaps you would. Unfortunately, I can't help. My PC is down so I can't unpack the tot. Either go in irc and have someone dump the IMG or perhaps you would want to lgnpst and then restore a backup in recovery.

Here's a flashable zip of the radio from the new TMobile official JB image. Enjoy!

NOTE: the updater script says UVLH1 because I used that zip and just replaced the necessary files...forgot to update the script. But I flashed to be sure and rest assured it will flash UVMC6!
NOTE 2: updater script has been corrected!

This is definitely a winner.
