Currently I have caty 1.5 running as my rom with the baseband l997UCKK4 and the kernel 2.6.35.7-l997RYXKG3-CL366622. I want to know what other modem I can install onto my infuse with android 2.3.6 firmware and all the other stuff i mentioned.
Lately my wifi and mobile data connections constantly drop and reconnect, I was told in the caty rom post that its a modem issue not a rom issue. I was reading the roms currently made and how to install. However I read it is bad to use a modem for a kernel that isn't compatible. What modem would be better for me to use than the current one I have. Thank you very much for the help. It has been a tough couple of weeks with a bad root, then having to odin flash recovery and root, and being stuck for about a week without a working recovery and being able to backup. Has been smooth up until now, data means everything to me. I used several GB a month in data.
All the modems in infuse superthread are compatible...just choose one and flash away

It's hard to say what modem is best. What works well for one person may not work so well for someone else.
Personally, I prefer the kk4 modem.
As suggested, take a look at the modems in the super-thread and experiment a little (they're all compatible).

Install modem after modem, each for 2-3 days, and check out which suits best for you. Many here have KK4 as best. I have KI3 as best. It all depends on needs and wants of the person, and his/her hardware.
So I am having problems with wifi dropping out constantly. Mobile network stays connected fine when not using wifi. But the wifi is always dropping out after connecting. I have tried seven different modems and now a new rom, Zeus. I need my wifi, what do I do?

1. Change your router lease timeout to a finite value, say 1 week, from "forever".
2. Try changing channel number to something else.
I have Zeus, and have good WiFi with no dropouts.
Changed channel to auto and lease time to one week. I will let u know if this works. So far so good.

Hi all--
I just bought this phone for my Dad as an upgrade from the inspire 4g.
He's been running CM7 on that phone (and on his n1 before that). However, i see that CM7 is crap right now on the Skyrocket (I'm on the t989 on tmobile...but don't use it there because of the lack of wifi calling...a must with tmo's terrible network).
Anyhow, does anyone have a ROM recommendation for me/him?
I'll replace the stock launcher with Go Launcher anyways, so I'm really looking for something that is stable, has great battery life, and that he won't need to update regularly (which he won't---I'll just update it when I am in town every month or two).
Thoughts?
Thanks!

TPC by twopumpchump has been running incredibly well for me. Battery life has been amazing, especially when installing his OC'd script through CWM. It is not themed like the others, but performance and reliably is on par.

Try pirate ghosts rom in the dev section. Super stable for me. But all of our rom seem to be perfect. Ive tried em all and have not had a prob. And i wouldn't say cm7 is crap either. Our heros put time into that rom/kernal. It may not be for everyone, but its still a reliable rom for our phone.

CocaColaClassic is very nice as well is Sky Ice Cream Sandwich Multiple Flavors. The developer seanzscreams has worked fast and furiously to make these ROMs mature.
The speed and battery life on CocaCola is amazing but if you have an issue with a black and red theme then check out ICS.
That's my 2 cents.

+1 for Space Pirate. Running it now and couldn't be happier. You won't have to worry about any updates because PirateGhost has since left the Skyrocket. But don't worry, it doesn't need any. Based mostly on stock, just tweaked and optimized. So no crazy kinks or bugs that would need to be worked out through updates. Battery life has been amazing - averaging ~3% per hour with moderate use throughout the work day. And undoubtedly snappier than stock.

I've been using using the alien ROM and love it. very simple and easy. Takes out most bloatware but isn't super flashy and retains to stockish feel.
When is 3G 4G Xoom going to get Ice cream?
i been asking that forever. I don't know what the deal is with Verizon not pushing out updates. I just don't get it. From what I read on Droid life is its ready to go but up to big red to push it out.
Just like the gnexus still stuck on 4.02 first carrier to have the phone last one to push out the ota WoW
Yeah it's very annoying. The problem is Verizon's testing procedures (or so I've been told) are VERY strict. Add to the fact that the Xoom isn't a priority device for VZW anymore, and yeah...we continue to wait. The WiFi-only Xoom has had ICS since December, and (again, so I've heard), Google had the ICS ROM for the 3G/4G Xoom ready not long after that. To add further insult to injury, Google and VZW pushed out an update to the 4G Xoom in February that was just a Honeycomb update (3.2.6) to fix data connectivity coming out of airplane mode. Annoying.
With the Galaxy Nexus, at least two 4.0.4 builds have been pushed to devices as part of a soak test (IMM30B and IMM76K), but neither made the cut apparently. But since they went out over the air, we have the files and can run those if we want to. With the Xoom, there hasn't even been so much as a soak test, that we're aware of anyway.
I wish I knew as well.
I've tried all of the custom ROMs and have had problems with each one. I've gone back to the Honeycomb stock ROM in each instance. As snappy & nice as the ICS is with the custom ROMs, the stock Honeycomb has been the most stable ROM ever, imho. I'm very excited about ICS coming out, but only if it's as rock solid as Honeycomb is. I'll wait a couple of more months so that VzW can get it right the first time.
Definitely. That Honeycomb 3.2.6 stock ROM is solid as a brick ****house. That's why I love it.
Don't know about you but I have had ICS on my Xoom for a while. Thanks Team EOS. And it is much better than anything Verizon would put out.

The stock ROM on the Verizon Xoom is still created and updated by Google. It just needs VZW approval before it gets released. TeamEOS isn't stable enough for my liking. Tried playing SimCity lately?

What's wrong with SimCity? (I don't game, so I'm really asking.)
Is the real issue perhaps merely that the game's not ICS-tablet-aware?

It freezes constantly. It'll run fine, then all of a sudden just hang forever, giving you the wait/force close dialog box. I don't think it's an ICS or app issue since people running stock ICS on the WiFi Xoom say it works fine.

Interesting. I haven't seen any indications of that in the main EOS threads.
Did you see anyone else collaborating this issue? Were you overclocked at all? Also, at one point we switched to overclocking the GPU by default, and I wonder if that's the issue (after all, my kernel improvements wouldn't have made any difference to a game, and we're nearly stock in anything else that matters).
I wasn't overclocked. OC always makes me nervous! Could be with the GPU...not sure. What I do know is that the issue was still there as of the stable 2.0.0 release.

Pls share a link with the instructions to install ICS on an LTE Xoom. Thanks in advance.

Uh, didja maybe check here on XDA?
My answer is "never." VZW will never release ICS for this thing. It was seriously doomed from the start.
That said, EOS has created an excellent stingray rom. Again, STINGRAY. And again, EXCELLENT rom. I'm not playing SimCity, but the Sims works very well and since the app was updated, it works even better. It was freezing on restart but now it doesn't do it anymore, which is something to say about how solid EOS' rom is--a problem with the app and not the rom.

Oh dear, not this again. Last year it was "We'll never get LTE" and/or "We'll never have writable SD-Card". It's obvious the tech is there, most likely it's due to either compliance issues (and with VZ that probably means they're trying to lock something down or take something away in the ROM they're intending to release ... the bastards) or they're waiting 'till some as-yet-unannounced LTE tablet(?) device comes out first. Apparently there's a ROM in testing at VZ, if the leaked screenshot has any credibility.

Hello ,
I've a question about teameos 2.0
I have a motorola xoom 601 and it has official rom 3.2.
I want to flash teameos 2.0 rom, but my device hasnt been rooted yet.
Yo flash this rom mention about that on this link [ROM][ICS] Team Eos ICS 2.0.0 [Updated 2012/4/27] Do I have to root my device or Can I apply these installation steps directly ?
Thank you..
I am nervous about the official ICS update by T-Mobile. Apparently they shut off Wifi and/or Wi-Fi Tethering. Is this true? I have an unlimited data plan and I am not on a contract. T-Mobile is full of nonsense and it is saddens me to see how companies are becoming more greedy than ever before and it will only continue to get worse. At least they don't charge for GPS usage like AT&T does.
http://support.t-mobile.com/thread/23175?start=735&tstart=0
You have to pay extra for Wi-Fi hotspot/ tethering. I think I heard somewhere that Wi-Fi Hotspot charge is required when updating to the official ICS.
Don't get the OTA. There's a rooted version of the TMOUS ICS that just came out in development for you to flash.
Sent from my Sensation 4G using XDA
So that means I can keep my tethering without them harassing me? Can I also get Sense 4.0? I am intrigued now, bu I hate rooting from the past imo because of my G2x experience, but I might give it a try. Is it an easy root like the G2x? Which rom do you recommend?
Any rom, just try them all and see what works best for you. There is no "best rom". I'm rooted, have been since day one, on T-Mobile, and have been on ICS since Februaryish.
They haven't said **** to me.
They're cracking down on teathering. If they catch you, they'll make you pay for it. Rooting is easy, took like ten minutes for me -minus the reboot times. You can flash Sense 4.0 ROMs. I'm running OrDroid 5.2 which is a sense 4.0 ROM
Sent from my Sensation 4G using XDA
so just to make sure i understand this correctly, the hot-spot feature is available on most ROM's i.e. ARHD, OrDroid, etc.
Thanks for the clarification. I'd like to try out the official release before I flash it to one of the ICS ROMs.
Try ordroid 6.0, sense 4 with ics. Really good rom

Just go into your settings and turn it on if your on cm10

Hi, as @Shadows... said : since your using CM10, you should not have any trouble turning wifitether on. Just turn it on in settings.
FYI, if you don't want to download any apps that will definitely give you a bunch of craps, I recommend you flash this ROM :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2074328
It's based on the stock ATT Jelly Bean, but WAY BETTER ! Lots of toggles, smart-stay....There is technically nothing different from the original leaked J.B, except this one is a lot better.
There is no hassle turning wifi-tether on !
If you don't want to flash this rom, download : Easy wifi tethering. It always works for me. But since its a free app, it gives you a lot of ads that will appear on your home screen.
tether no longer working on JB based roms?
Okay my wifi tether was working great on Mohans 5.0 ics rom, but now since upgrading to 6.1 JB, my wifi tether stop working! I tried using the native wifi tether under settigs..no luck.
What's going on guys?
