I'd really appreciate it if you reply to my question.
I flashed the OMEGA ROM on my international n7100 device and now I have a very weak signal "2 bars" and sometimes it might even say no signal.
Is there anyway I could fix this?
And no I'm not staying anywhere that doesnt have a strong signal.
My brother is on stock and he's getting a very strong signal.
Please help.
Sounds like the modem.
Go into the Omega Files and try one of the other note 2 modems.
I had the same issue and now its better

Ok so I have a few questions if you guys would allow me to pick your brains.
I have installed cm9.1 on the galaxy s2 (SGH-T989) using clock work recovery. The phone is rooted using superSU. Pretty standard as far as it goes here. However:
<s>1) I have no wifi calling option and its running android 4.0.4 (ICS). Is this normal for this rom or do I need a different kernal or modem/radio to make this work? Because stock has this feature and its really important to keep message/calling costs down and get service in dead zones.</s>
2) I cannot get 4G data. Only "H" and 3G. I got Edge/2G/3G/4G with stock. Is this normal or do I need to do something else to get this to work?
3) What are good custom kernals to use for this phone because I looked on the sticky and there are only three listed and some are discontinued. Also what are the major advantages of a custom kernal over samsungs stock? I.E. What does it add/modify?
4) Do custom radios change signals your phone can pick up? What exactly does changing the radio do?
THANKS!
~NEW!~
1)Since no wifi calling is a deal breaker for me I'm going to try a new rom, so! I'm looking at darkside and akop. Any opinions on these roms or experiences you guys have had with these good or bad?
2) CWM vs TWRP ~ GO!
Just trying to get better informed. Thanks everyone! :highfive:
Also if there are guides I missed that explain these things I'm sorry just link me to them if you would be so kind. Thanks!

This and stick with stock kernels for now. Different radios work better in different areas, so just try until you find the best one for you.

Haha yea after I got the answer I felt dumb I just never saw the little icon use "H" to explain a radio type and didn't think about that related to 4G as standing for hspa. Also I learned hspa exists using WCDMA. Cool. :victory:
The "H" means HSPA+ which is 4g.
Only Touchwiz ROMs have Wifi Calling (CM9 is AOSP Based)
The best kernel to use is the Darkside Venom Kernel for CM9 AOSP http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1775075
As far as radios go they can change the amount of signal. Certain radios make signal better in different areas. I PREFER THE GALAXY NOTE RADIO FOR Galaxy S2 (T-Mobile)
HOPE THIS HELPED!
Darkside, only tw roms have wifi calling, aosp roms like cm9,10 and aokp dont.

The one in this parent forums sub forum, try launchers like nova, apex, go, hold the phone differently or move your router or use 2.4ghz not 5g if that applies to you, I've heard wifi fixer helps.

T999 roms should work. Just have a nandroid handy and don't flash any of the Tmobile modems.
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app
All the T-Mobile roms work on the T999v (I have a t999v on Wind). This includes AOSP roms, TouchWiz and the JellyBean leaks. Same goes for kernels. As mentioned before, just don't touch any radios/modems as they will not work.

Good battery life will be ROM dependent. The ICS roms based on touchwiz should have similar battery life. I also have decent battery life on the AOSP Jellybean roms. The Jellybean touchwiz leaks are a bit more touchy. Some users report lower battery life on some ROMs though it has been improving gradually

That's ypur baseband/modem. It will remain the same when you flash roms. No rom should affect the modem in any way (as far as flashing is concerned).
So yes you can freely flash roms. But do not flash any modems not intended for your model phone!

No you do not need to reflash your modem. They are independent of each other.

Exactly. They are on different partitions. When you flash a rom the baseband will remain the same.
The only time this matters is when you are flashing an ota patch. Then you must be full stock, modem and all.

Sent from my SGH-T999V using xda premium
AOSP camera has less features than the touchwiz camera but it's not like you're physically changing the camera itself, so the quality should be the same.

Yea on my phone ASOP speeds are like like .20mbps on 4g ( not kidding), while on TW its atleast 2mbps on 4g. No real way to fix it that I found after alot of searching. But I heard it depends on your phone, some people say they get same speeds on TW and ASOP. My brother has Dirty Unicorn on his phone and has the same speed that I have on Project X. We are just unlucky
I ended up flashing fi03 and its doing awesome now I'll post a speed test soon thanks for the reply

You are always going to have better data speeds on tw than on aosp...When Im on tw I run the stock kernel that matches up with the rom and modem Im running..So I get my data back to what it was when I was stock...But you don't have the kernel option on aosp..I have seen many people say this modem works and that ones better, but really you just have to find which one works best for you're area...FL24 works best for me..but Im in chicago,so the towers are updated more often..
Greeting all. I am running a Galaxy Note II stock/rooted AT&T 4.1.2.
My signal seems to drop out frequently when I am traveling and I was wondering if there were a better (subjective I know) modem than the stock one. Thought I would give it a try to see if it helps ease my signal drop.
go to the modem thread and try a different one out

What ever modem came with MrRobinson's root injected factory stock ATT Rom. I believe it is I317ucamc3.

If I am looking at the right thread ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1986480 ) there appears to only be one other modem for ATT (UCALJ2). Am I not looking in the right place?

UCAMA4
Mr. Robinson has not released a root injected UCAMC3 build to my knowledge. ..but I wish he would. ..as it would greatly simplify the return to stock method for this device. .
But the delay from time of release to the posting of builds on the sammobile website is nothing less than ridiculous. .
And I'm sure once they get it. ..Mr. Robinson will create another excellent resource as he always does. ..g

Ditto on MC3
I'm on revolution HD 19 which is great so far but the mobile internet I'm getting is very slow. This is my second ROM I've had since rooting with similar performance.
I'm with talktalk (runs on the UK vodafone network). My girlfriend is with the same network but gets much much better performance on her nexus 4. My apn settings are correct.
Is it a case of downloading a different modem?
Thanks.
Yes mate. Just flash a new modem. It's easy. Try a couple if your speeds don't improve.
I had real poor signal when I flashed my custom rom but flashed a new modern and hey presto.
Good luck

Thanks for the reply mate. Where would I find different modems? I'm sure their are plenty on this site but what should I actually search for? When I search "modem" on here almost every ROM thread shows up.

From that thread I was able to do a speed test using speedtest,net app. I'm getting
PING 437ms
DOWNLOAD 56kbps
UPLOAD 23kbps
I'm sure thats pretty poor. I'll try some of them modems see if I can get it working better. XX or XW seem to be the UK ones so I'll start with them.
My Baseband version right now is DDDMG1
Make sure you have set your network mode to auto, and not gsm only. Quick to overlook.
