So I flashed speedmod to my US samsung att captivate, running froyo from att release. After I did, people told me there was a ton of static in the background of voice calls and they could barely hear me. So I flash firefly. Same problem. So I flashed new modem, UCKB1. pretty sure this is stock modem. Same problem. What do I do. Can I get back to the stock kernel so all will be good again. Is there a modem that I can flash while having custom kernel that will fix this issue. I'm definately willing to go back to stock kernel if that's what it takes. Btw, the answer is no, I didn't back up the original kernel. This was my first time, and the only back up I did was titanium. Plz help. I need my phone to TALK to people

i answered your pm, try kc1 modem before changing roms again, ill post link in a sec
edit: here it is
http://s148368836.onlinehome.us/modem_ugkc1.zip
if you still have problems just flash a rom based on kb1. i dont want to keep sending you through a loop if the i9000 stuff wont work for you
Hmm You shouldn't have had the problem out of the box with firefly?
your issue at first was using an I9000 kernel with an I897 modem ... Now it's the opposite situation.
the speedmod kernel i flashed specifically said it was for the att captivate I897. so can i get back to stock kernel?

Speedmod is reoriented from an I9000 kernel to work on the captivate, so yeah it's for the I897 but we call those I9000 kernels cause we're lazy ... Look in the dev section there are a few kernels made from kb1 it will say so in the header...
Or you can try an I9000 modem ... Dani897 suggested kc1...
Exact same problem...
Like Club33, I chose to stay with Official Froyo and just flash the Speedmod kernel. I too, got complaints that my calls sounded very bad, although on my end, the reception was perfect.
After following Dani897's instructions to flash the modem_ugkc1.zip, my call issues disappeared.
As a newb, it was not made clear that using the SpeedMod kernel on Froyo would cause call issues. Flashing to a compatible modem for Froyo users should be clarified on SpeedMod's page.
Thanks so much for your post, Dani897.
Nevermind.
So what's happening here is a mismatch of the kernel and modem.
If you use a i9000 based kernel (like Speedmod/Onix/etc) you MUST use a i9000 based modem (like JK4, JQ1, KC1, etc).
If you are using a Captivate based kernel, like KB1, you must then use a Captivate based modem (like KB1 modem).
If you don't, things MIGHT work, but you will have the crackling sound, bad reception, poor voice quality, etc problems that you are describing.
Long story short: don't mix and match i897 and i9000 modem/kernel pairings.
And PS, here's a link to the Modem Thread in Captivate Development. Any further questions regarding modems should probably be done in there.
Hello, I am running the stock AT&T Froyo 2.2 and wanted to know if I can try an older modem I896UXJL1. If I can what do I need to do and where can I get the modem. It was in cog 3.4 and worked great for me and now the 2.2 uses KB1 which isnt working as good.
Thanks!
Modems
Modems are all posted in the first sticky of the Captivate Android Development sub-forum. I am on 2.2 stock ROM with speedmod-kernel-i897-k13e-500hz-CWM kernel and using cwm2_ugjl2 modem which works brilliantly in central Florida. 12 and a half hours on and 69% of battery still left (with Juicedefender).
Edit: oops just noticed JL1 isn't posted there (which you probably already knew). I still recommend JL2.
JL1
Found JL1 on Perka's file stash (perka.zapto.org)
Thanks guys for the help...... I too have awesome battery life on the stock AT&T Froyo and I get better reception being on the 1897UCKB1 running 3G.
I have another question. I have been trying to get a newer version of camera.apk to work on a stock Froyo and everyone I have tried force closes. Also, I wanted to know if there was a version of extended power menu out there as well. Thanks Again!
possible to put stock rogers gingerbread on my cm7 captivate with at and t bootloaders, through odin?
I just got my infuse 4G yesterday and i have been trying to find the same firmware that is on the Att Samsung Galaxy S2. I have just learned how to use odin, and thats all i know how to get roms on my device.
Can anyone give me a working Samsung galaxy S2 rom that is able to be used on odin.
Currently i have
Firmware: 2.3.3
Gingerbread. UXKG3
Kernal: 2.6.35.7-I997RUXKG3-CL366622
Baseband: I997RUXKG3
I downloaded this from Rom Manager i think, the phone has a signal but it has no data.
Also everytime i try to install a rom using the ROM MANAGER the screen begins to look like a tv with a whole bunch of colors and it just reboots with no success at.
I ever got to install the 2.3.5 gingerbread for the infuse 4G but keep getting a #*999* email error and i dont know how to fix that.
Can someone point in the right direct step by step
The Infuse can't run Galaxy S2 ROM's. It can run Galaxy S (I9000/Captivate) ROM's using the Hellraiser patch and kernel. There are several ROM's to choose from in the Infuse development section of the forum, including both Infuse ROM's and Galaxy S ROM's already modified to work on the Infuse.

Ok so how about this.
Do you know where i can get a list of roms that work on Odin for the Samsung Infuse 4G, because that seems to be the only way i know how to install roms on the device.
ok to use odin means you cant flash hellraiser. that means if you dont see the firmware in this forum in a .tar you cant use it the way you are describing. basically all the odin roms here are return to stock packages(so far)
however if you flash a voodoo kernel or otherwise get cwm you can use cwm to flash any 2.3.3-2.3.5 rom in the gsm type galaxy s forums (not cdma) as long as you immediately flash the hellraiser package over it,. dont reboot the phone till after both the rom and hellraiser are both flashed!. many of these roms have heavy sgs2 theming. look especially in the captivate, vibrant and i9000 sections. do not flash anything for the i9003, epic, facinate (unless it's telus which is more like a vibrant), mezmerize or other.
I flashed, installed roms, recovered so many times my phone (infuse rogers)
I can't remember the current original version of the firmeware for the infuse on Rogers.
I think also the kernel is UXKG3.
Does it make a difference if I flash with another kernel version like UCKL2?
Thanks for your answers.
