Can I Just Put A Modem On My Phone? - Samsung Infuse 4G

I would put a custom rom but they never work well. So is there a way to just put a modem in the default rom? Please tell me if I can thanks. I just want to tather.

I don't know what tather is but i do know what tether is. The custom roms here do work well.

They don't they always never start up, crash, force close, and restart Ive tried about 20. I ment tether

all the modems perform about the same. no reason to flash a new one. its not like the galaxy s with 30 different modems for different carriers in different countries and different hardware. also many of the galaxy s modems were sub standard imho so using a different on could have big benefits. the infuse never had that problem.
now if it's tethering you are after that has zero to do with the modem. there is a file in att roms called tethermanager.apk or some variation of that. just delete it or flash a near stock rom without it, for froyo I recommend infused 1.6 or bionix, for gingerbread I recommend bionix biui build 3. but if you use an iPhone unlimited plan they do packet sniffing and will know and force you to update to a teired data plan.

Pretty much what the guy above me said. Modems do not do as much here anyway. Roms do work very very well, just choose wisely.

Showcase froyo? Maybe

I have a mesmerize that i have flashed with fascinate software using odin i dont see why this wouldnt work for showcase. I have personally done this with my phone many times the hardware is the same as far as i can tell only software is diff any questions id love to help may work may not i dont know but it did for me as well as a few others from mez to fasc
Im going to flash the odin pack for show case ill report back
Tell me why a showcase user would want a US Cellular device or a Verizion Wireless device?
Then they stay on there same cell service I never went to verizon service it doesn't change the carrier just the software so they can use froyo that's that reason why I never used any other carriers just software even tho its flashing a diff radio and modem its still stays on uscc 3g and all and I flashed my buddys fascinate to a mez jusy 5or fun and it worked fine anyone who doesn't understand how this works shouldn't do so

So mesmerbelly,
How many times have you done this and what's your success rate?
I mean if it weren't for the fact that the showcase doesn't have an Odin Flash I'd be all over it, but we don't so this would be a huge risk...
When you flashed to the Fascinate you had 0 problems with your data, text or ANYTHING at all working correctly?
All but mms some times was funny but still worked sometimes tho they would just pour in because they wouldn't come through when should 100 percent success rate

[Q] Enabling 3G

Hey guys,
I got the Galaxy S 4g, only issue is I have HORRIBLE 4g speeds at home and take forever to load! I recently updated to the Gingerbread 2.3.3 and it made it worst!
(Stock Gingerbread 2.3.3 Deodexed + Root KF2)
Was wondering if their was a toggle where i can disable 4G and enable 3G?
on the market seems its for other phones?
Thanks!!
i honestly dont know 100% if you can toggle between them, but i'm pretty sure you can't. are you sure you're on 4g to begin with? you can try to take out your battery and leave it out for a minute and then restart the phone. i had a problem where it wouldnt connect and that fixed it for me. if that doesnt work for you, try flashing a new modem. if you're at home, just try connecting to wifi; it may just be your area.
Actually, I do sign in thru wifi but it still seems to lag and im on FiOS and it shouldnt lol
So u say flash my modem? is that reflashing with odin a new software? im learning as I go with all this and im running gingerbread 2.3.3
Oo. Hmm. I'm not sure if flashing a modem works on ginger bread. Check out the bible thread and look for the modem link. May have your answer there.

Widgetsoid toggle widgets has a feature that lets you enable/disable 4g but I have never used it so cannot make a claim as to whether it works or not.

Noob, need help with data issues

So recently seemingly randomly, my rocket tries to say I have lte when I should only have 4g. I live near DC, but not close enough for lte. So when I try to send a text, it often fails and needs me to resend it. For someone who sends 25k a month, this is ridiculous. I'm not sure if the whole device is breaking or if the lte and texting issues are related. Help??

Change to gsm/hspa only in mobile networks, then it will disable the LTE radio, problem solved
When I go to mobile network settings, I don't see any options to be able to change it to either of those options. There's not much of anything that I can even change there. Is my version /build different from yours?

Yeah you aren't rooted and don't have a custom ROM

So besides rooting and flashing something that'd work there's nothing I can do to disable LTE?
I figure I'll take my phone back to the at&t service center to get a new one then, since it's only 3 months old.

[Q] ICS Radios.. Which is working best for you?

Hey, I've been reading around the forums and it seems there are 3 main radio's to choose from. I plan on testing them all in depth. It seems results vary from phone to phone especially with the UCLC5 Modem (from the Note). I was wondering if other users would post their results I'm curious to how your phones are handling these modems and what your opinion on them are.
UCLA4 (from the original leak)- I started with this one. I felt like my speeds and signal didn't reflect what my bars indicated. It felt like it said I had more than what I had. I don't recall my speeds but I intend to test this radio more in depth tomorrow.
UCLC5 (modem from the Note)-The note radio is what I have been using since it was posted here. While my radio seems to show less bars I tend to get better signal. 2-4 megs down and 1-2 megs up on HSPA+. I have yet to have noticed anything strange with it.
UCLD2 (from the 2nd leak)-I haven't gotten to test this radio yet since I've had connectivity issues all day.
I think these are all the ICS modems. feel free to post any I missed.
essential I'm trying to get a general idea on the modem with the best speed.
Personally I think the new UCLD2 radio is much improved.

Newest leak is working the best for me so far. Signal looks weaker in the notification bar but my connection is much more solid than it used to be.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using Tapatalk 2
I agree with shepherd the latest leak works the best.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using Tapatalk 2
the best thing for everyone to do is to try them all yourself. I think everyone's phone reacts the the modems differently. A modem that kicks ass for me may suck ballz for you. Also once I flash a radio I always use it for a day or two before making any judgements as to whether its an improvement or not.
Edit: forgot to mention that my decive picks up wifi signal better as well. Not sure if that's even a modem thing or something else Sammy changed in the latest ics leak but I sure do like it

I post this allover skyrocket forum, but i notice and some others too : if you on WiFi UCLA4 and UCLD2 radio seems to be in download mode all the time. I did not try UCLC5 from Note so i don't know if this one have same problem.
You should add another modem.
Blaze 4G modem. Its what I use and I like it. Have yet to try the new leak one.

Maybe it is good radio but do not connect to lte network on At&t
Using the UCLD 2 radio released with Sean's Sky ICS 4.2 rom. SO far so good. Not LTE coverage in my area but 4g speeds seem okay.

Ha, and I'm looking at now. I'm assuming many have moved on from Skyrocket (I unfortunately destroyed my HOX), but any update on radios for this device?

aokp uniporn kernel question

If this rom is suppose to have entropy's kernel in it is it the newest one? I cannot send long text messages being capped at 160 characters. Is there a fix for this?

Im pretty sure kernel has no effect on character limits...that's usually modem-check your modem version under settings if you don't have uclb3 flash uclb3 modem on it...should fix your character limit

I have no limit.
"Search is temporarily unavailable. We apologize for the inconvenience." ~ Yeah, what's new
Well I was surprised but didn't want to risk flashing his kernel just in case. But I can't send long texts so I dunno

When the new version of this rom gets released, is there an easy way to get all of my settings and apps back without having to reinstall everything through titanium backup? Each time I flash a new rom, it takes forever to go through and set my homescreen and apps.
As far as I know, every time you flash a new ROM, you have to do a complete wipe so it doesn't cause any redundancy issues and slow your phone down, or FC's, Random reboots, etc etc.. However, if you're just installing a newer version of this, you might be able to get away with just wiping Cache and Dalvik Cache and not doing the "Factory Reset/Reset All User Data" which means you get to keep all your apps and setting with out causing any problems, similar to as if you were just flashing a theme, kernel, or modem. So as the user "Experiment" always says, Experiment.. lol.. I know I do, I like to see what can I do and get away with or tweaks I can do with out having to flood the forums with questions I can answer myself by just wasting a little of my own time.. lol..

It's not that big of a deal, just seeing if there is some other way out there.
When I installed this rom all my apps downloaded back up through Google I believe I didn't have to use titanium except to install a few like flip board. Weirdest thing never have seen it do it before at all!!

same thing happened to me! never seen it before.. kinda cool.. but it re downloads all the apps using up bandwith. I'm on the "unlimited" plan but it automatically re downloading those apps puts me closer to being throttled by ATT.. oh well.. I've been trying to use WIFI as much as possible.
I also flashed the B3 modem to get rid of the 160+ character limit
Me flashed that modem because I write novels when I text sometimes.. I am also on unlimited but use wifi most of time unless out and about
