I897 ROMs Vs I9000 ROMs

Which one of these two ROMs give faster use experience? I have used cognition and serendipity. I felt serendipity to be somewhat faster..please let me know

IBTL.
This is subjective as all hardware is not the same. You need to find what works best for your setup and run with it.

Neither are really faster, but you have to be careful because i9000 kernels are often incompatible with captivates and your phone will behave strangely if you flash the wrong kernel.

Thanks. I am contemplating between cognition and serendipity. Hence the thread. Yes, I know I cannot mix modems and kernels.

I tend to believe since i9000 roms are always more recent (since att s**** at updates ) they will be faster , but since they were not made for captivate , less 'crisp' in some areas , all this is really subjective to the usage of the phone ..
There is middle ground here , like Andromeda and DRAGON rom , both NON based off i9000 roms neither captivate (i9010 & i9088 ) , using there original kernel you can use any modem you like , with no issues . And since there kernel did not need to be reoriented you dont lose any of the crisp , Andromeda being based of 2.2 is probably the closest to the Captivate source right now , Dragon being the latest kernel released by samsung is definitly the most stable and crisp kernel out there , there is no source for it but neither there is for the latest 2.2.1 out there either , like someone said in this thread what works best for you is what you shoudl use so dont hesitate and flash them all and please dont limit your testing to a few hours days is what you will nbeed to make up your mind ..

i9000 ROMs should give you faster data speeds since the use HSDPA and HSUPA (i897 ROMs use HSDPA but not HSUPA).
i897 ROMs should give you better sound quality on calls since they utilized the noise cancellation audience chip which the i9000 does not have.
As far as ROM speed itself, I do not think that is based on which source is used, but on the actual ROM itself. What I mean is not all i897 ROMs will have the same performance, and not all i9000 will have the same performance.
That is the great thing about ROMs, try different ones and use the one you like best (or switch between several you like to keep it fresh!)

It's not necessarily the ROM that give you better sound quality or faster speed. That is in that is in the Modem and kernel. You can "basically" use any of the modems with "most" ROM's (BE VERY CAREFUL NOT ALL MIX. FOLLOW DIRECTION ON ROM THREAD). JK4 has really good speed and you can use that with most ROM's

Thanks a lot. I use eXistz beta 7 kernel on my cognition 4.2 ROM. Are you saying I can replace the KB1 modem? Are you recommending that I should replace KB1 with JK4. If I do that than probably I should replace my eXistz beta 7 kernel with either speedmod or suckerpunch kernels? One question is: how to do all this from CWM without doing odin back to stock and reflashing the whole stuff? Thanks
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using XDA Premium App

You can flash kernels and modems right over the rom without going to stock first.
SGS Tools is probably the easiest way.
FYI JK4 is an i9000 modem. Flashing it with a KB1 KERNEL may yield les than ideal results.

The size of modem.bin in both the files (UCKE3 and UCKD5) is the same -- 15,728,640 bytes.
Am not sure if all modem files are the same size or not, so putting this across to confirm myself that these two are what they are though the size is the same.

Cos some hardware gets better performance on certain radios. And many, if not all, love to experiment with different modems to see what suits them best. I love one with more battery compared to one with more speed.

They're both AT&T modems, the Infuse has never been sold by any other carrier. (That is going to change Tuesday...)
As to them both being the same size, that's common for partition/PROM/firmware raw images. They ARE different - different md5sums.

so what is the difference between the two?

Has anyone checked if there are differences beyond version strings? Then again, I don't see why you'd bother to recompile a modem to release a new firmware unless the modem had changes as well..

Just wanted to say that I've been waiting for new modems to try as the UCKE3 I was using was pretty poor in 3G performance. Where my old Captivate was getting solid 3G signals most of the time, for some reason I wasn't getting the same with the KE3 modem on my Infuse in the same locations and I was somewhat often getting only edge or no signal at all.
Having tried UCKD5 for a little bit, it seems like download speed is better and signal is much more solid so far. Need to do more testing, but I like it alot so far.

Pretty much not possible without major decompiler/disassembler experience.
The radios might even be encrypted.
Most likely E3 has a bunch of bugfixes not present in D5 since it's newer.

That was my gut feeling too... E3 is an improvised version of D5.

Flashed UCKD5 modem
The building I work in is notorious for killing the signal. I flashed the UCKD5 modem yesterday and so far it seems that I have better signal than with UCKE3. Will run this modem for a few days more then will try the other. I sometimes wonder what I'd accomplish if I weren't a phone junkie

How to get CyanogenMod on the SGS 4G

With the 7.1 release the other day and all the newly supported devices, I kinda felt like the GS4G was the red headed step-child.
I brainstormed... what is the best way to get CM7+ on our device?
Best result I could come up with was to ask the guys who helped get it on the OG Vibrant.
Their response was abbreviated. (A) do it myself (not possible) or (B) get them a device.
Well, I guess that leaves trying to figure out how to get a device into the hands of an official CM team developer
OR
Coming up with a better idea.
I am soliciting advice/feedback for either of these two options.
EDIT:
Just realized my thread title is pretty misleading... but if it helps get views, sorry. It was not intentional, promise
EDIT 2:
I should also point out that I have been sending tweets to Samsung / and their support, for kernel source.

so they don't need the samsung to release the official GB for our device? cuz the source code for GB kernel will be available after that

we need the gb kernel source... mabe cough samsung cough leak us some kernel source instead of updateing the rom every 2 days

I don't think we need kernel source at all. CM and Miui are both on the Vibrant and it doesn't have any GB source because, well, there is no GB for the Vibrant.
The SGS4G and Vibrant are so similar I think a CM dev could get this working NP with the help of a couple users. But hey, what do I know?

lol just was trying to get some kernel source it can be done with the stock kernel just going to have to do alot of fenessing of the rom ;P

it'll be different that the vibrant CM kernel. This is due to the source being COMPLETELY different. I've diff'd the sources, and nothing matches up.
The vibrant is using a modified I9K GB source. That is what is making it work.
As far as using the stock kernel, sure, we can do that, but it would have to be modified for every update, and nightlies... yeah, you can forget about that. RFS/EXT4 wont be added as an official CM build due to it will break the i9k/cap/fascinate/vib builds.
Once I get a new 4G, I'll continue working on the kernel/build.

It was Tmobile's decision. The Exynos processor didn't support Tmobiles 42mb HSPA+ network, I think the Exynos maxed out at 21. So that's why tmobile opted for the Snapdragon as it supported the 42mb HSPA+.

But what's the point of it being able to support that speed when the network doesn't even get close to that fast? And do we really need speeds that high especially with the data cap? My phone averages 10 down and 5 up, which is MUCH more than what I need.

a major percentage of overall data use on smartphones involve streaming media.. and that number has skyrocketed over the past few years.. yes browsing xda and the web is fast on the gsg4g, but you really see the differences when downloading large files and streaming

[Q] Serendipity VII Infuse - 3G/H(4G)

Mike1 - Awesome ROM..Thank you.
2 Questions: Why does ROM toogle between 3G/H signal? Stock ROM connect to 4G(H).
Some download from MARKET would come up insufficient memory and fail to down load. Is there a fix? I reboot but still does not resolve.

Might want to flash a different rom. The dev for that one is jumping to a different phone. As you can see the latest version of serendipity is way over a month old. You will get better support from a dev/rom that is still fully supported.

Depending on the area your in, stock or custom, the phone will always toggle between the two. The stock rom just doesn't show it doing so. If you aren't in an area that has 4G, obviously your phone will take advantage of whatever is available.

I agree, but with GB so close, I'm sure we will get a boost in development with new roms to choose from..I wouldn't worry about an outdated rom, for now, S7 is great even if outdated. I mean its not like an Hdmi fix is gonna come till GB anyway lol

You're not really likely to see anything other than Hellraised I9000/Captivate ROMs until after AT&T Gingerbread drops.
So what if it hasn't been updated since initial release? It was created by Hellraising a highly refined and mature Captivate ROM. There's nowhere it really can go until we get official AT&T Gingerbread. At that point you'll likely be able to get nearly all of the benefits by flashing over another Hellraiser update.
I was originally going to try and do kernel development over UCKJ1 in order to backport some stuff to the Infuse Daily Driver series I've added to the GSII version, but it's looking like I may just return to S7 for that work. So when DD development resumes, S7 will likely be the ROM it's tested against until official AT&T GB hits.

I have run S7 off and on while trying to teach myself about ROM creation/modding, and S7 has always jumped back and forth for me in areas where I am right on the edge of good HSPA+ signal. It's fairly normal and if it's annoying you can always set your your phone to restrict to one network or the other.....but I wouldn't recommend it. I'd just be careful how much data you auto-sync if it switches a LOT as bad signal areas + background data can mean extra battery drain.

I guess since no one technically answered your questions I will.
1. Because S7 is true to what you are connected to, whether umts (3g) or hspa+ (H) and that fluctuates normally where ever you are. Stock ROM always said either H+ (at&t) or 4G (rogers) regardless of whether you were connected to "4G" or 3G.
2. It is a known bug with the new market and has nothing to do with the ROM.
S7 is in no way outdated ....it may be over a month old but that's because it works so damn good...plus Mikey has said he will do one final update when official gingerbread cones out.
Anything you would consider more up to date is using leak stuff from ucki3 or 4....which kinda sucks anyway...

About the only improvement I can think of right now for S7 would be integrating the camera library fixes into the download.
That's it... That and the TCP buffer fixes in the initramfs (which you can get just by flashing a newer kernel) are the only good things that came out of UCKI3/I4.

BUT i don't really normally make or receive alot of calls. I did read the part about your first call not having sound, tried the speaker toggle, all is well. While Im making calls. But I cant receive calls. lol
It makes a crazy sound then says "NO SERVICE" for several minutes. But everything else works great!

Nice, but may i say that in your future plans it says to change G to 4g? G is actually GPRS, which is a form of data lower than edge(2g). You probably meant to say HSPA+ to 4g, because HSPA+ is T-Mobile's form of "4G"

Thought that was how WCDMA worked. G2x does HSPA not +.

When you see G on the phone, it is because no 3G, or 2G signal is available, and the only signal available is GPRS, which has a data transfer rate of 56-114 kbps, which is definitely not 4G. T-Mobile's version of 4G, Which is HSPA+, on the G2x has a theoretical transfer rate of 21 mbps. I have never even seen the HSPA+ logo on any other ROM than complete stock, even though people are saying that CyanogenMod made a change to differentiate HSPA and HSPA+. What would be helpful to some people though, would be if you changed E to 2G, and H to 3G, Because more people are probably used to that, and personally i like that naming scheme better, it's less confusing.
(If you want to check out my source, I think your article was a general GPRS for all GSM communications, Here's what i used:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/General_Packet_Radio_Service

14.4 not 21
Also, why does every MIUI rom remove gapps? Are gapps causing problems with MIUI? I'm new to MIUI so pardon my noob question.

Gapps not supppose to be in any rom, not even in cm7 due to copyright issue and some other issue i forgot.

Google only want the apps on released device they approved. Since cm7 or miui isn't approved for our phone we can't include them. On stock roms its OK since Google approved the use on Google apps on them.

The odd part miui shows hspa connects as "G" along with UMTS connection. So it just a miui labeling issue

I flashed the cm LG camera mod and it works flawlessly on this rom.
You just have to wait a bit for "media scanner " to finish its thing.

I confirm it to be like all the other miui roms with "invalid sim"... other then that its a pretty good miui rom.

Are you talking about this cam or the stock CM one?

Thanks for the direct link but could you possibly point me to the source?

Sorry.. I got that zip from this thread couple of days back. I don't know what source has been used to generate that file. I wonder if there was a released source for that, as it is LG custom camera.

Sorry by source I meant, the thread where you go it from where I could find more info and maybe source code but mostly the thread where I can get more info about it if needed.

Thanks, digging throught those post I found it and the updated version aswell. Going to test it now. If it works better than the CM cam I'll use it instead for my builds.
