Better modem - AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II

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 modem are you using?

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?

MC3 is the latest modem, J2 being the first release

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

Hey everyone

I just wanted to introduce my self to the SGSII forum. Finding a way to root this phone was very easy and i give my thanks to all who have put effort into making this possible. I had the epic 4g from sprint but the service was terrible so i made the change. So far i like it. I was just curious what the newest modems were and if there was a thread that is directly linked to them. Also i have heard about 3g turbo charger does anyone have any input on it. Thanks a head of time and im glad to be joining everyone!

Uvkl1 is the best modem for our area. Not sure if the link for the cwm flashable is still good though.... 3gturbocharger setting 5 has worked wonders for me.

Check out the Jedi Roms. Ptmr3 is an awesone dev for our tmo note2.
Yes but I was wondering about aosp, aokp, and cm10 or even miui, the att version came out later than ours and they have any room they want, such a shame I can't afford att, and we only have the jedi series, but don't get me wrong jedi x kick ass

so if I just flashed at&t rom, and after that I flashed my T-Mobile radio, everything will fine or I still get a few problems with the connection etc....?
I know it will install on ours, I played with miui for a bit. I also saw good speeds. But, I wonder about intermittent issues.

Looking for the LH9 modem

I'm using Wicked's JB v.4 ROM, but I've been doing some research to try and get my AllShare Cast dongle working and some peeps said flash the LH9 modem, so I'm going to try it, but I can't seem to find the modem alone. I'd like to keep my ROM.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks,
This is the thread that I thought was complete but I don't see LH9 there.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1880987
Do you know what carrier / country / firmware LH9 is for? Might help tracking it down.

[Q] How to upgrade to 4.1.2 through PC and not OTA?

So I've got the AT&T Note 2 unlocked through a code from them.
The AWS unlock band works great with my T-mobile plan.
Except my software is at 4.1.1, I can't update without a sim or with the T-mobile one.
Anyone know of a trick or way to do the software update for this AT&T phone
Thanks

Just a follow up I go to this site:

I see one firmware there from October 2012, is that the 4.1.2 version? I don't see any version number in the listing on the web page
Yes... U might hafto make an account... Dl your firmware and flash in odin
Sent from my SGH-I317M using xda premium
There must be a easier way though, for AT&T customers who had trouble with OTA update, im sure they probably providd a procedure for a direct update through some software

so im still looking for the updated AT&T stock rom.
im using AT&T Note 2 on T-mobile but would like the multi window feature, etc. I am rooted, prefer to use the stock roms due to less issues vs testing custom roms.

I rooted using Framaroot and flashed Garwynn's+ agats recovery using mobile odin.
Fellow Virgin Mobile user here
As for my rom i'm still on stock TouchWiz although i do have Agat's Recovery installed. I'm looking around and trying to compare which ROM to flash, and so far i'm leaning towards ReVolt, or i might try and give the official CM 10.1 nightlies a go

I tried that one a few months ago and had GPS issues.
So far for me the most reliable custom ROM has been Dastin's WFTN and the official CM10.1 releases, though YMMV.
Even then I wound up flashing back to stock TouchWiz because of data speeds being faster on TouchWiz/GB28 than on any CM10/ICS or Gingerbread modem I tried.
Plus there were graphics corruption issues with GPS Test+ on every custom ROM I tried.
I seem to recall reading somewhere that it has to do with Mali driver issues, but I'm really not certain why.
As far as Virgin Mobile goes, I've been with them for 4 years come January and I'm not going to make it 5.
Locally, Sprint's network is crap and now that I have a real smartphone instead of a glorified music player like the Intercept, the connection problems are too glaring to overlook.
Come next January I'll probably have a used E4GT for sale cheap. :laugh:
I'm using the EG30 modem with Dirty Unicorns and my data speeds are a little better then when I was on GB28.
The speeds that I get from speedtest on non-JB modems are very close to the GB28 modem, but not quite as fast under ideal conditions.
This part I understand as the EvDO version connected to under 'About Phone>Status. is A:6 on all of the non-JB modems while it says A:7 or A:8 on GB28.
I could live with that, but the other speed issue is that no matter which modem I've tried, I get a pause during testing speeds about a quarter of the way through the DL test that looks like Mount Everest on the DL graph.
I have no idea if it's something unique to my phone, a glitch in CM, or something to do with Sprint's ****ty local network buildout, but it's easily reproducible on several different custom ROM/modem combinations.
But as I said in my first post, Your Mileage May Vary™.

I'm currently running Carbon Rom. I was on the official CM 10.1 nightlies until they were not longer nightly...more sporadic and if-y. So, I switched.

The first post in a ROM's thread is called the Original Post, or OP. Every rom OP has detailed instructions on how to install, or flash that particular ROM. Good luck, and just make sure you are flashing e4gt roms only, and since I see you are on VM, after you flash, Google how to change the mmsc url so you can send mms. Enjoy!
