t989d radio for 4.2.2 - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989

Hi,
I have a Galaxy S2 (t989d). I've been trying to get CM10.2 (4.2.2) working but it would only be able to connect to my service provider for a second and cut out.
I've downgraded to 10.0.0 (4.1.2) and it is working.
Therefore my assumption is that I need to update the radio to work with 4.2.2. I've tried a bunch of radios (tlle4, tllg2) and have no luck. Has anyone had this problem and knows what radio to use?
Thanks!
To clarify my service provider is WindMobile

You need to try the MC6 radio or the latest telus radio should work for ya check the development thread and check radios

Ril and baseband not matching

So I flashed a new baseband to my gnex. When i had my g2x i used an app called getril that allowed u to flash the appropriate ril w baseband. My gnex has the old ril and new baseband but its not in the getril database. Wondering what potential problems it may cause

RIL are librairies included in rom. Just flash another rom and you will have you RIL back.
I understand that.....but should the baseband have to match?

Its my understanding that the radio is backwards compatible. I have left the 4.0.4 radio on and flashed multiple 4.0.3 roms without any issues, so you should be fine. Farther back that .3 i'm not sure about as i haven't tried that.

S5660V Optus - Best baseband?

Hi, I have a Galaxy Gio GT-S5660V from Optus Australia. currently running the S5660MUGKG3 baseband. I occasionally have issues with bluetooth refusing to turn on, wifi not turning on and then rebooting my phone, etc. I've downloaded the latest firmware from sammobile "S5660VXXKQK_S5660VOPPKQ2_OPP". Should I flash this baseband to my Gio? I'm running GalaxyICS CM9 RC1 from Maclaw. Any other Aussie Gio users? Which baseband do you recommend? Thanks in advance.
Im not sure what baseband does but i know its according to region and the one you have right now is the one that came preinstalled on my gio, the Canadian one, so it might cause trouble for Australia idk

Yes, I installed the Canadian Bell ROM and baseband in order to unlock my phone. Baseband sits under the ROM and controls the hardware interface. There are a few basebands out there for S5660, S5660M and S5660V, but I can't find any information on which is the latest, changes, or which is better for stock/CM ROMs, etc.
Use the latest wich is specific for your V model, otherwise you will get problems..

Radio Downgrade with CM 10.1 Preview 1

Hi All,
I flashed my T989 with UVLI1 radio so that I can run the CM 10.1 Preview 1.
But with this radio, phone is not detecting the SIM card (seems to be an issue with my sim Service Provider only because SIMs of other service providers are working just fine.).
I had the same problem when the phone was running stock GB rom. And it got resolved once I upgraded the phone firmware to Stock ICS 4.0.3 rom with UVLE1 radio.
Lot of people are reporting call issues with UVLI4 radio, so i was wondering if the older UVLE1 radio is compatible with the CM 10.1 rom or I just have to go back to CM 10.0 to use the UVLE1 radio ?
The new UVLI4 radio was draining my battery like crazy for some reason, flashed back to UVLE radio and all is well. BTW, I'm running CM10.1 preview 2.

I tried various radio from gb - ics roms but still no luck. Guess I have to switch the service provider..

Might want to try manually setting APN settings.

thanks for the tip, though my problem is not with data but rather with getting the sim to be detected by the phone or I am missing something ?
Finally the issue got resolved by getting a new SIM from existing operator. Still on the LI4 radio.

Going to flash it in a bit. The modem thread has been updated, in case you were looking for just the modem. My assumption is it was updated today so it should be identical to the one in the new update.

[Q] trying to update galaxy SII SGH-T989D to jellybean on t-mobile network

Ok so I bought a Galaxy SII unlock from ebay. Phone says t-mobile but the model # on my splash/boot screen says SGH-T989"D" how ever when I go to phone info it show as model SGH-T989 (no "D") my provider is t-mobile on a monthly unlimited (no contract) Phone works just trying to update to get the benefits from the update... I have tried to update using Samsung kies and it says device is not supported (am I missing something? ) so can anyone enlighten me to whats going on
* why phone is not detected in Kies.
* why cant I update to jelly bean.
* is the D on the model number for a different provider and is there a way to update to jelly bean through software from that provider.
UPDATE: Just realized that the model # SGH-T989"D" only shows up on my Splash/boot screen, in my about Phone > phone model it shows SGH-T989 (without the "D")
Feedback will be welcome
Thanks
I'm pretty sure the t989d is e Canadian variant from Wind Mobile.

Thanks

What it says on the boot screen depends only on the Rom. If the front says T-Mobile it's probably a T989.

It doesn't really make a difference, both are the same and any t989 roms will work. It would be good to know which it actually is tho....a D or not a D. A few minor issues could arise. I have the D from Telus.
The only issue I can think of off the top of my head is that the 4.1.2 Tiberius kernel messes up my rotation. But I was also using a Telus based rom at the time. So not sure if that was a rom or phone model issue.

It doesn't matter if you're flashing the ROM, but if you use kies or odin it might not work with the wrong model. I had the t989 but I wanted the Koodo rom since there was less bloatware. I wasn't able to do it using kies or odin, but I could flash t989d roms through recovery.
