Modem pulled from the Samsung Blaze4G.
Not hard to install at all, just put it on your sdcard and flash in Recovery.
Yes. This was not originally for Froyo I have to remove some /libs.
I made it work for the Sidekick 4G.
Credits to Master&Slave for pulling the Modem from the device.
Download: Here
Froyo/Gingerbread Only
My Results:
-My speeds have increased and I always have 3/4 full bars no lower and always 4G.
Just Hit the thanks button...
It will save a lot of you from getting infractions/warnings
I'll give it a shot and report back here. Thanks.
Edit : Noticing a gain of 1-2 bars on signal and faster 4G speeds. This is the real deal man, thanks! It will report as KJ2 but it is the Blaze 4G modem.

May seem like a noob question, but how does this affect your contract and things like that? Like its not going to give me surcharges or anything? It just increaces the ability of the radio already built in?

If anything, it'll make you hit your 4G cap faster and they'll just throttle you down to 3G...haha.
Weird, but I'm noticing a higher battery life due to this modem.
Maybe I made some othr significant change right before flashing the modem that I forgot about, but I have to ask. Is anyone else's phone being significantly more responsive? Especially during gpu intensive tasks. For example like playing temple run

I can't tell... Temple Run is always lagging for me, as time goes by it gets more smooth..but it'll still lag occasionally.
Well temple run workswell on godv2 when i use level 2 cache then start the game to clear memory

Maybe obvious, but just for clarity and safety ... you mean you removed that stuff from the ZIP in this thread, not that some things need to be removed from the phone in order to successfully flash this radio ROM. Right?
I beleave he removed the /libs from the original zip so it would flash correctly (only guessing since thats what it took for me to flash the original onto my phone an notice a difference)
Modem flashing is a huge thing over in the captivate forum its nothing new.

+1 ... I have had the exact same problem. 160+ character fails to send on any new modem. Last modem that let me was UCKI3, which I got decent speeds with and was pretty stable.
This KK2 is a little faster, the wifi may be just a little more stable... but I miss being able to send long texts
I might make the switch back to KI3 just for the long text message capability...

He is having low download speed on wifi, too. It sounds like a bad flash to me. I had a similar problem and fixed it with a clean flash. YMMV
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.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using XDA
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

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?
Hello, so basically I have rooted my Speedy from 2.3.4 by using the bootloader unlock method posted by VICODAN in his tutorial but now I find that I am having insanely slow download/upload speeds compared to before rooting.
I have flashed the latest radio after finding THIS thread and I also tried the method from HERE to try and at least boost my speeds. I have also updated my profile and PRL through my Sense rom but nothing seems to help.
If anyone could give me any advice I would greatly appreciated it. I am on MikShifted-G v2.1 running dodgekernal v1.6. Thanks in advance.
I would also like to know if there is any way that I can go back to the stock 2.3.4 GB.

Well I've found that your speeds depend on what time of day it is. I know that's BS, but it's what I've found. Posted some Screen Shots Below of my Speeds.
The only time I get decent speeds from sprint is at night. Like 2am night.
You could also try the 3G Turbo Charger. You'll find it on THIS thread. Just make sure to read before installing.

Maybe you had roaming enabled in your old/stock rom and it's turned off be default in your new rom?
Well the thing is that I had perfectly fine speeds in my area prior to rooting.
I downloaded the "Network signal speeds booster" and "Fresh netowork booster", both from the play store and I am having almost back to normal speeds now, there was a dramatic increase in speed after I used both of those.
But I have also looked at the 3G Turbo Charger thread that prboy linked and I will definitely be trying that as well

Well I've actually redone the Tests recently. Certain times of the day in my area must have some Heavy Network Traffic. Because the Network does slow down at the same times daily. But only during the week . Strangely enough I just noticed that I posted the wrong Screenshot . Although I do have to admit I'm not exactly a Scientist .
Haha yeah, but thats good to know, and yes, kinda weird that you would get faster speed on weekends you would think that it would be the other way around.
But anyway, thanks for sharing your results, I've done some tests recently too and they seem to be following a similar pattern...so even though you may not be a scientist, there is some truth to what you said

Yeah it's really bad from like 5 to 8 PM... You wanna see good 3G speeds, get on there at 3 or 4 AM, crazy good speeds cuz nobody's using the network... Except people like me who set stuff to download before they go to bed LOL

You can change the PRL without QSPT if your on a Sense Rom. Check out THIS Guide. Just be warned using certain PRL's can get you into issues with Sprint because of constant Roaming. Also you may want to do a search for the latest PRL's, as the ones linked in the post seem to be bit old.
is there a way to reset the baseband? i wanted to try the "Jedi Mind trick SGSIII Style V2 rom" and flashed the baseband modem update that was in that thread. tried the rom a bit, then restored my previous rom that i was using prior before the jedi mind trick rom. and went to about phone in settings and saw that my "baseband version" was unknown. and i been receiving texts late. is there a way to fix this?

You can find the blaze baseband here, I'm using the newest T989 and signal seems better.
If you lose signal after flashing the radio you want a reboot usually helps or you may have to get the correct APN.

hows that 989d telus modem running for you? I am guessing that the reason the other modem software is working is cause the hardware is similar or same between some of these phones right? is there a way to find out what chip sets are on these phones to get an Idea of what other firmware works on some of these phones? the T989UVMC6 seems to help my charge time a little and dose seem a little faster on download speeds but still nervous about causing any long term problems but there is no signs of overheating or running flaky so I guess it should be fine.
thanks
I have done some preliminary testing with the UVMB1 and UVMC6 radios and have some very definitive results. There's a speedtest.net server where I live so there shouldn't be too much variance here. I have done some other testing with the other radio (the t989d) with mixed results. The t989d radio is very inconsistent where I live.
The UVMB1 is the first three results, and the UVMC6 is the next three. Pretty conclusive to me. I will be on the UVMC6 from here on
I'm also using the UVMC6 and it does seem to give me a stronger signal. I should probably run a test and get some "official" results.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-T769 using xda premium
been running all day with UVMC6 almost 14 hours and still 64% battery and I used my phone a lot today listening to Pandora radio for almost an hour and 4 or 5 phone calls and played on the web a little. I think I am safe to say it improved battery but I rarely loose much signal in KCMO so I cant say that signal is better but I may have seen more H+ than I normally see. my home has steel siding so I dont see as much H+ when inside but it seems to have been H+ most of the time I checked today.
and again thanks for sharing with the rest of us on this information, it has improved the quality of my phone so many thanks
Welcome, I found it when had my skyrocket and figured I'd try it out. It does seem to make signal stronger and battery. The 989D was ok just didn't hold signal to long
