(Help) Basebands

Hi everyone.. i was wondering if someone could guide me in this new world of SCL lol..
i have one with KB1 baseband and i wanted to install darkgen.. will i have any problem flashing it ?
do i have to update the baseband first ?
or i just have to install a rom with my baseband, and that's all i can do to my phone ?
i had a Galaxy 5, and some basebands didn't work propperly where i am (argentina).. i found the original stock Froyo rom with KB1 and just the baseband of KB3..
WHAT CAN I DO ? haha..

[Q] Whats the exact difference between firmware update and flashina a custom ROM?

I have read that Firmware update doesn't required rooting where as the custom ROMs need rooting. So, what's the benefit we get after firmware update? Guide this noob plz............

Custom rom is just that... Its custom firmware. Basically you can make your phone run exactly how you want it based on what rom you have. I know that's vauge but its a vauge question. There is this nifty little thing built into most computers and even some android phones...it's called "the Google" I would recommend asking it what a custom rom is for some more detailed info also look at what kernels are and what a custom recovery is. I know what its like being in this noobish situation, every one does. Enjoy learning how to properly use your Android phone!

Firmware update just updates the software that comes stock from your phone
Custom ROM adds more functionality/more features/completely revamped software to the phone.
Firmware update = stock
Custom ROM = custom

[Q] skyrocket roms, SAMSUNG-SGH-I727

I have a skyrocket SAMSUNG-SGH-I727, I have Adnroid version 2.3.6 , Baseband version I727UCKJ2, Kernal Version 2.6.35.14, Build number DJ-ICS-PLUS-2.0
The rom works ok but I am having call quality issues. I show 3 or 4 bars but EVERYONE I talk to says I sound gargly and I get texts returned saying failed to send. Some go some do not. Obviously the radio has issues. Is there a fix for this or should I flash a new rom? HELP!?!

Well the first thing you should do is go the the Skyrocket forums and ask your question there. You will be far more likely to find your answer there

Has it been doing that ever since you got it? If so you might want to try calling tech support and see if they can update your phone settings to ur local network. You could also try a custom rom to see if that might change your radio or something. There is an official ICS leak you might want to try. But there is other custom roms that are based of a stock skyrocket rom.

Noob needs help with rooting 4.2.2

Hey all,
I've looked through threads here and I'm just overwhelmed. I had my S3 rooted on 4.1.2 but Verizon kept coming up with these updates that I could either defer for 5 days or...update. When I chose update, it took me back to TeamWin. So I redid a fresh format from the TeamWin screen (I really don't mind rebuilding my phone and contacts) and I was able to update to 4.2.2 after that but but I'm still getting that Verizon update warning.
First of all, how do re-root my phone with 4.2.2? I thought TeamWin would disappear but it didn't. So I went back to that screen and went to Download. Now I'm on a screen with the Android robot that says "Downhloading... Do not turn off target !!"
I'm not sure what it's downloading.
I'm sorry if this is in the wrong section. I would be fine with a moderating moving it.
Thanks a lot!

First, this is T-Mobiles forum, you want Verizons.
Second, if twrp is still installed all you need to do is flash the SuperSU or superuser zip you can find eith a quick search.
Third, that is download mode. Only for use with Odin.
Fourth, considering you don't know these things, I suggest you read up on some of the many guides you can find here on xda.

I highly suggest you do quite a bit of reading before you start messing with rooting and flashing roms. You could very easily brick your phone if you don't know what you're doing or if you flash a file that isn't meant for your phone.

Also it is VERY important you be in the correct device forum. There are 5 S3 forums.
Moved to Verizon S3 Q&A

Verizon does not have an official 4.2.2. We are still on 4.1.2 MF1 as the official. If you have 4.2.2 it is from a rom you have flashed.

Only the S4 have Touchwiz 4.2.2 so we will assume that you are talking about AOSP roms as they are 4.2.2. Please be clear in your post so we can help you. Now to teach you about download mode it's there for you to flash stock Touchwiz back to your device via a software called Odin. Now what you just ask about (download mode) you could have Google searched it yourself and got your answers faster.
