hey guys! im new to POSTING to XDA but not new to using your FANTASTIC ROMS etc. i usually have it down reading all your great threads and finding the answer. but this one has me stumped!
i have a At&t infuse. i used kies to get the recent 2.3.6 update. i then rooted and have no custom kernal or anything. reason being, everytime i flash a CUSTOM KERNAL like Entropys DD my wifi always has some problems. it connects dont get me wrong. but it doesnt stay on for but 3minutes before it turns off and comes RIGHT BACK ON! i cant watch videos or download great roms with wifi interuptions! lol ive read and read and read till my eyes bleed and cant find why.
i HAVE: used ODIN to go back to stock and try again, nope//used Heimdall and still NOPE// i even Used ODIN with Entropys DD already in it and still have the same problem. (using Entropys most recent 3-4-12(i think))// I Even got another INFUSE and still same problem!//i have WIPED WPED WIPED my fingers sore and still nothing// And yes i have purchased a NEW router also and renewed lease to 2weeks or somehing other than never. THIS DOESNT HAPPEN WHILE STOCK only when using Custom kernals, AND NOT JUST ENTROPYS!!
so please please gus help me out!! sorry for the lengthy post but try to understand my frustration! lol thanks again!!
ok just in case anyone is folowing, i found Entropys CURRENT kernal (4-4-12), works great!
discussion on link provided, i have also attacehed ENTROPY's (4-4-12) Kernal in a .zip, its flashable through SGS (kernal flasher). fixed all my problems! thanks and good luck! (HDMI-out via MHL WORKS GREAT!)
THANKS AGAIN ENTROPY512!!

ALL CREDIT DUE TO ENTROPY512, NOT MY WORK! THANK HIM!!
What should the "Kernel Version" show as if running Entropy's latest kernel?
I am unable to post in the appropriate Entropy Kernel thread in the Dev forum yet.
Is 2.6.35.7-I997RUXKG3-CL366622 correct? I think it is.
sorry

sorry for the late response, but yes. correct.
Even i have the same wifi disconnect problem every 2 minutes, problem started when i had to root my 2.3.6 and i installed Entropy's Daily Driver, then i installed zeus 6 still had the problem then i installed I997UCLB3-CWM-root-deodex-extras i still have the same problem
guys so installing 4-4-12 will resolve the issue or its just the same?
i have installed the 4-4-12 from entropy using sgs flasher but still the same problem
this is an issue i am plagued with as well... except it only happens at home, never at work.
Any thoughts Entropy or Bigjoe?
I also have this problem. I installed I997UCLB3-CWM-root-deodex-extras from a stock GB infuse and got this problem...now i'm running Recursion V1 with the same problem.
i called belkin support thinking it was my router... it wasnt, chaanged all kind of settings still disconnects. talked to samsung, no fix there either. i know i have done a clean flash so i know thta isnt the problem. must be something to do with the kernel or modems. but like i said only happens on my home network, never at work on wifi..

For GB, just flash (oden/heimdall/heimdall one-click) any gb kernel in the dev forum and you should get CWM (unless the kernel is a fully stock kernel, like the first one in my one-click collection).
A little lecture could help you. This has been answered like 100 times a day.
Use latestodin, flash ravers kj6 odin rom (yes, you have to be in dl mode and rom file goes in pda and i think you need to decompress the .zip file so u use the .tar) and after that just flash drhonk kj1 kernel so you can get root and cwm. Then you can flash gb roms without problem.
Theres a big post saying that Rom Manaher doesnt work wotj raver.
actualy rom manager has a Galaxy s 4G setting now so yes it does work

Also, tehgyb gave you all the good links (thanks man!)
Instead of insisting on using rom mangler, you should listen and read.
If all you want is clockwork mod + root + gb, just heimdall one-click my kj6 kernel and stock rom... The link that says: Download SMS KJ6 Kernel Stock Rom with Bootloaders
After you run that, you can flash roms with CWM (not rom manager) as you wish, and you will always have root with that kernel.

Well the good news is that it flashes and loads into the OS fine. The bad news is that it won't connect to the network. Could be because I'm on ATT but I doubt it. Wifi still works.

Try it out and report back might be a headache or work great! I'd be hesitant with original modem removing information giving the "insert Sim".. Also I flashed a modem a while back (infuse kk3 modem) it worked, but my clock time was off many hours. It didn't matter what modem I used after.

Hi eb13
Please track battery life as well.
I'm using the sidekick KD1 modem, which gave me better receptions, but I was told it costs some battery drain.
Also, can you please post modem here? I don't want to sign up just to download it. 10x!
Sent from my SGH-T959V using XDA
I also flashed it last night. No problems whatsoever, and I got the fastest upload and download speeds I've ever gotten (max. 9100 kbps download, 3400 kbps upload). Battery usage seems fine - I left the mobile network on overnight, and the battery only went down a couple of percentage points.
I think we have a winner here, but obviously individual results will vary. I'll try to post this in a separate post to make it more visible and include a download site that doesn't require a sign-up.

@itzik2sh: LB7 doesn't show up in the baseband version area in the Settings menu - people also reported this in the SK4G forum. But as I was flashing it in CWM, the phone reported that it flashed both the mdm.bin and amss.bin files. And I'm getting much better speeds. So you can take it or leave it.
The reason the file is so large is due to the presence of both .bins.
For reference, here is a link to the LB7 modem file that I uploaded to mediafire:

If you searched and read, you'd have ur answer already.
rooting
i did search and read. that's how i arrived a the point that i did. if you can't help me, why bother to respond at all. just to lord your knowledge over me? how rude and pompous!
You can't root 2.3.6 UCLB3 with SOC. In fact, it can't be rooted very easily. What I did, because I'm a noob and was afraid of going back to Froyo to get to a rooted UCLB3, was this:
I flashed back to stock UCKK1 (no data loss experienced doing this)
Rooted with unlockroot (which, strangely, no longer lists this build as rootable. Don't know why, but it worked on the second attempt for me.)
Installed CWM and did nandroid backup
Flashed the rooted UCLB3 from Dman
(I later flashed the entropy kernel 'cuz it's great! You'll see why when you boot up in the rooted UCLB3.)
That's what I did, but you ought to read through Qkster's posts on this. I used some of his Heimdalls for this - he knows what he's doing. Most people on here say that your mileage may vary - with my advice, I'd say your mileage may greatly vary!
Here is a how-to. UCLB3 can be rooted on your phone, no need to install another rom to do it. Read and re-read, this thread wasn‘t too far down from the one you made.:

Great guide jscott30. Yours along with qkster's noob guide and qbking77's videos on youtube walked this noob here through flashing my way to total Infuse Emancipation. Pretty much hassle-free, no problems or bootloops of any kind...although I did update to 2.3.6 through Kies first...what can I say...noob here Odin easily took care of that though taking me back to stock Froyo.
From there it was easy following all the instructions and tips posted on these boards. My advice to all 1st timers is read and do your research. Don't blow up your phone on a whim simply to have one that looks "cool" or does something different.
If you do run into problems the search button here and on google are quite helpful.
Peace
I am also a noob an had my son talk me through the process on the phone. I also had a rooting issue after getting 2.3.6 through Kies. I used the Odin process to gain root and then loaded CWM to be able to flash the phone easily. I am on CM7 now but am having an issue with my Bluetooth not working no. Does anyone have an answer for this problem? All I get in the BT now is static.
Thanks for the help,

Yes, he also has an Infuse. I had mine upgraded to the 2.3.6 over Kies and then some of the apps, not sure which ones or how many), would not load and work without locking up the unit and causing it to go into an endless reboot loop so he helped me find the Odin unlock and reload files so that I could get ClockWork Mod to work, and then he got me to the CM7 files from Steve Morrissey's listing. Now everything works but the BT and i use that all the time when talking on the phone so it is kind of important.

audio BT is not functional on CM7. Source code issues.
If BT is a must, you'll have to try one of the native infuse roms.
idk if bt works on port...I've not tried the ports long enough to know.
Try Spartan, PharmNerd, Dev, Aeon, Midagu Eman etc...or just stock uclb3
what qk said if you need more help check out the links under qk's signiture also feel free to pm me
Out of curiosity, does anyone know if there is a possible time when the BT will be able to be working in CM7? I really like the overall build and the way it works but I really do not want to have to use a wired headset too much.
Thanks again for putting up with those of us that have so little knowledge.
From what I understand the source code for the Bluetooth drivers was never released and that is why it does not work did you get tethering working

Jerry,
With CM7 the tethering works really well on USB and while slower, it does work as a wireless hotspot as well. I really like the CM7 so I hate to go elsewhere just because of the BT issue but.... Do you know of any specific other ROMSs that behave and look similar to CM7 that have the BT and tethering working?
Thanks,

no i dont sorry i liked cm7 when i tried it but at the time i wasnt using bt and like i said in my pm i have never used tethering sorry i couldnt be more help you might want to try imancipation it has alot of themes and a ota app to download them with

-Video won't record.
-Mic won't pick up audio.
-No audio from phone at all.
-SIM is not being read

On the Samsung Updates page, Galaxy S III LTE (AT&T) SGH-I747, is the device. I selected the only ROM available.

A kernel acts as a connection between the hardware and the software.

Thanks. Is there any way to go about checking and/or replacing a kernel?

Changing a kernel is pretty easy, just download the appropriate kernel for your phone and flash it through any custom recovery, then wipe cache and dalvik cache to avoid any future issues, you are good to go then

Ok, I have been trying and can't seem to do it. Is there any way you could link me to a kernel for my phone that doesn't require me rooting my phone again or using a SD Card. Thank you, you've really been helping me.

I am using this kernel on my s3. Its really good, a lot of powerful options, and easy to install. Just make sure you read thru the entire OP and research anything you don't understand. Depending on how bad your phone is, it might not be a bad idea to odin the original firmware and start fresh.

This is a badass ROM. I am running the sprint version tho. This is the one ported to at&t. the kernel comes built in on the sprint version and probably is also on this one. I had to flash the att kernel to work with sprints new version of the s3. http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s3-att/development/rom-ported-wicked-x-v8-0-att-t2985227 Same thing there too. Read the entire OP at least and as much of the att and original thread as you can, and thank the devs.
