The new BB can be tricky at times, there are certain ROM's that have the fix built in, or ROM's that claim to be made specifically for the new BB...this is where the confusion comes in.
So here are the ROM's that i've seen that already have the new BB incorporated:
-EB Build 4 (you choose which BB to flash during installation)
-[ROM][GB 2.3.7][v21y] Miui.us 6-7-12
-MokeeOS R.282
-Owain's (Build 79 will have new BB support)
So are there any other ROM's that you do NOT need to flash the BB fix? The new CM7.2 RC3 has the new BB supported within the ROM, correct?
Some more obvious ROM's that support new baseband
Stock 2.3.4 v21y
Kwes1020 Rooted Stock 2.3.4 v21y
BuRom SLIGHTLY Modded Stock 2.3.4 v21y
All Cyanogenmod versions since 7.2.0 RC3
Possibly the CM Nightly just before the May 26 RC3 version
Anything else if you use Owain's baseband fix...
I have used lots of the Cyanogenmod Nightlies because they can be dirty flashed from one update to the next. I also Nandroid back to BuRom or Stock 2.3.4 sometimes to help my wife :highfive: when she gets confused about something on her stock G2x.

It supports the March 2012 and July 2011 BB...unless Ricardo has updated to include the BBs from our Canadian neighbors...and would solve their calling issues they're having...

I bricked my phone the other day running some CPU stability test within the Mokee 2.3.7 ROM I listed above, something happened and the phone turned off, couldn't get power to come on no matter what. Luckily ADB still worked and I was able to get it going again using the flash.bat fix that takes v21e and turns it into a flashable ROM through ADB.
Either way, when I booted up the phone, I had 2.3.3, but still had v21y March 2012 listed under the baseband. I believe everything is good to go, I haven't flashed the v21y.kdz because I don't know if I actually need to.
I'm running Mokee again and his ROM states the new BB fix is incorporated with the ROM, i have no issues with signal and phone call audio so I guess everything is the way it should be.
Some ROM's work with either baseband???
I think I understand what you are getting at...
Do some ROM's (which ones?) operate fine regardless of the baseband? That's something that is not always clear from looking at changelogs. I am usually pretty careful about reading a ROM's description in its OP. We do really need an organized listing of what ROMs work on each baseband...
As for Cyanogenmod, I believe that the RC3 from May 26 only supports the March 2012 baseband. I think I read on another thread that all the CM7 versions that followed RC3 are supposed to be backward compatible with the old baseband as well. I also think I read that EB lets you chose your baseband during the install (Aroma??). Could it be that Mokee detects the baseband and adjusts to allow your cell radio to work with either baseband ?
I am going to look into this stuff some more...

The first Mokee build (about 2 weeks ago) had different ROM's for different basebands. The following build, which was like 5 days ago, stated that there will only be one ROM, but will work with either baseband. Eagles Blood ICS Build 4 makes you choose which baseband during flashing.
Mokee is the only one i've seen so far that lets you use either baseband, and have no problems.
just to be clear on Eaglesblood, you arent choosing which baseband to install, you are choosing which baseband you want the rom to support. if you have the new BB then you will want the built in support from EB, otherwise you cant use your phone as a phone unless you apply Owains fix (which can be applied to ANY rom)
as for CM7 i think all of the builds since CM7.2-RC3 support the new BB. CM7.2 just went stable a couple of days ago so all new nightlies would be 7.3??
also like i said, you can apply Owains fix to any rom to get it to work with the new BB. if you are not sure the rom you installed will work with the new BB on your phone, just make a call. if it doesnt work, then apply Owains fix. if it does, then the rom likely supports the new BB or you are still on the old one
would anyone know which V21Y roms having working BT calling? i know CM does not, therefore, since many roms are based on CM, many roms dont have working bt calling. i know Kwes's, burom, and stock all work though since they are based on stock rom.

Been using Sean's [ROM] SKY-ICS 4.2F3-7 (UXCLF3 Base) 7/9/12 OFFICIAL ROGERS ICS AT&T/ROGERS SAFE and loving it! Keep up the great work.
Just curious to what other Roger's or other 727 users are running...
Reason being my Bluetooth seems to connect and reconnect in both of my Hyundai 2011 & 2012 vehicles... and when on a call there is a lot of reverb or echo. I'm using UCLF6 radio and SKY ICS MODDED UCLF6 kernel...
Curious...

Bluetooth stack in touchwiz based roms sucks. Apparently its much better aosp, so give cm9 a go
Running CM9 latest stable release stock Kernel with UXLF3 radio using LTE.
Investigator Kernel is running great as well.
battery ...it is wat it is ...
Only main problem for me is the 160 characters limit.

Mohan is working on the BT issue, I've been running mostly his ROM's. Seans are great, but eventually I go to Embryo (mainly he has same car as me so if it works on his then good)
For BT quick fix for you on any rom would be just to flash Mohan's 1.5 Kernel and problems will be gone. Only thing is he alredy has a new one out, but BT is not fixed on it yet.
You can get 1.5 and follow the BT issue discussion in his thread here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1701189
Don't forget to hit thanks to him, he is very dedicated to find the root and fix the BT problem.

Thanks for the replies.
A buddy of mine flashed his wife's phone back to GB... issues resolved. So what's stock radio and kernel? Would not replacing those running ICS not resolve the problems?
I'm using my i727r with Mobilicity and happy to report no voice quality issue with bluetooth in vehicle.
Radio trouble
When I flash roms and install a radio, it takes for ever for it to switch to LTE. APN are all set right. I tried all radios from ATT to Rogers.
Only rom that works is ICS ATT stock tar file.
I have a 727r and I want to use it on wind, and have no idea what combo of rom / kernal / modem to use. what I do know:
The 727r radio has the ability to pick up the signal
The wind network uses HSPA+ - transmit on 1700, receive on 2100
There are modem files out there for these frequencies
Things I don't know
How to make sure a rom / kernel / radio will work with each other (hopefully without needing to spend hours flashing n! combinations)
How to figure out if a modem file will support my device, or the frequencies I need
Things I've tried
the 989 from Tmobile runs on HSPA+, so I tried installing a tmobo rom, kernel, and radio with little success.
Trying to install / flash different rom - kernel - modem combos (most of which results in baseband version:unknown - this means the modem and rom are incompatible right?)
What I'm asking
Is there anyone running a 727r on wind that wouldn't mind sharing their rom / kernel / modem combo?
Has anyone found a Cyanogen-kernel-modem combo that works?
I am NOT asking which is the "best". After spending 4 hours of flashing and praying things will work, I don't care if I get the "worst" rom. I just want a combo that works
WORKING(more or less) COMBOS:
R34P3ReX_T989_Skyrocket_Conversion - Juggernaut_50_0218 - Tmo_SGH-T989_KID_radio
Gingerbread base, gyroscope tilts screen wrong way, a bit buggy, but works
CM10, CM10, T989UVLH1
Works well enough, having Call issues though. Going to try a new radio
Cyanogen always gets terrible battery. Going to look for an optimized version but not a problem for me
CM10, Blaze 4G UVLH5
Calling worked, I could hear caller, but they heard a lot of garbled blarky. Not good
u don't need a specific ROM or kernel at all, all u need to do is try different t radios. try the uvle1 from the t989 aka Hercules subsection, and give the modem someone dumped from the i757m bell version to see if u can catch a signal. I strongly believe the later will work

So.. im using the Tmo Radio.. the latests and you can get it here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1895400
and as for the ROM i am using Cyanogenmod 10.0 but the T989 version.
works good.. dont forget to wipe everything.. as for the other comment where you just need to flash the radio.. dunno.. i tried that a couple of times and it didnt work.. however.. im about to try it again.. so ill let you know how it goes.. for now though.. just to get it working.. i would do the above..
tip: i initially flashed the UVLH1 radio.. worked great.. great signal.. then i updated the other day to the latest.. and it seems as though my signal is not as strong.. dunno.. but try it out.. you never know..
also.. on initial boot up.. you need to give it a couple of minutes for things to settle.. it should pick up the Wind signal by itself... if it doesnt after 5 mins.. then do a search.. but you shouldnt have a problem..
So.. i can confirm that you CAN install the TMO radio and the ATT Skyrocket CM 10 ROM!!!!!
Infact... it works great!!!
TIP: i can also confirm that the UVLH1 has a stronger signal than the UVLI4 radio which is the latest. not sure why.. but i reverted back to UVLH1
hope this helps!

The recovery I'm using is Team Win Recovery, if that matters. I suspect either TWRP is not working or the Kernel is incompatible
What Kernel are you using?

I'm using the i727r (Rogers) running CM 10.1. I'm still on Rogers using the stock radio for now. Is there any consensus as to which radio file to flash for best results?
I know this thread is a little stale, but I figured I would throw in my two cents.
I have an i727r, unlocked. Right now I am running PACman Rom (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2178402) with the Blaze LB7 radio (4th from the bottom here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1895400). They said I shouldn't be able to run an ICS radio with a JB Rom, but somehow it seems to be working. Note that the radio was on there before flashing PACman.
The kernel showing up in my phone info is the one that came with the PACman Rom, 3.0.72-cyanogenmod. I know this because before flashing PACman over stock, the kernel was 3.0.8.
Having said all that I'm thinking about updating my radio, probably to UVMB1. I'm not sure if I should bother though. I have a Nexus S, which is designed as an AWS phone out of the factory, and when I put my SIM card in that phone, the speedtest results are the same as what I'm getting right now with the LB7 radio on the Skyrocket. So I'm not sure I'd gain much by updating. :/
Can some people in the GTA please chime in to help me.
I am using a Rogers Skyrocket.
SlimBean Rom 4.2.2 Official 7
T989UVMC6 radio/modem
I tried a few other modems and found this one to be the most stable as some did not even allow a call to be made.
This is what I noticed.
Full charge I talked for 20 minutes and lost 10% battery (from full charge)
I get erratic data speeds inside=500-1 and outside I get 3
The problem is the battery drain and signal strength.
What are you using and what is your battery life and signal strength?
Data speeds?
your location?

My carrier is videotron, one of the most difficult carriers to get unlocked phones to work on. Here's what works for me, sim unlocked, rooted. Running cyanogenmod 10.1.0 RC2 with Blaze 4G LF4 radio, nobars battery saver and network booster. I'm still have the same issue as everyone else, baseband unknown and network type unknown. I've been running the stock kernel and I've been running like this for the past couple days, and touch wood, I haven't had any issues. I've tried the 2 Tmo radios, I got no signal what-so-ever, the telus radio kept dropping my connection, meaning, I would have to try and resend text messages several times before it would actually send. Now that I'm using my current setup, as described at the beginning of my post, no problems to date.
I hope my input helps out.

Edited, UVMB1, the NEW Blaze 4G radio from this thread seems to work as well:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1895400
But like x said, u had issues u just weren't aware of them. Problems don't just APPEAR for no reason.
this threads getting confusing.
ucmc1 and uxuma7 is for rogers and att users on cm10.1
if using unlocked skyrocket for other carriers then you would need compatible jb radio for the new/unlocked carrier for cm10.1 based roms
so for tmo/wind etc you would need UVMB1 for the AWS bands, there are other jb radios for telus, bell but don't know if/how well they work on said carrier.
so if your carrier uses the same frequency's as tmo then UVMB1 seems to be what users are reporting success with.
if your carrier is using same frequency as att/rogers then the ucmc1 or uxuma7 radio is what you need
correct me if im wrong

Hi all,
First off sorry if this is in the wrong thread, I've been doing a good bit of reading on XDA but first post (woot). I am using an HTC Inspire 4g that has been rooted and S-OFF. I am a fan of the CodeFireX 4.2.2 SR15 ROM, but need something a little more stable for the next couple months, so I am reverting to the last stable CM 7.2 release (gb) and I was wondering if anyone knew if the latest radio's and RIL's . I have experience flashing ROMs and gapps and a couple radios, but I am curious if any of the newest radios will work (or just the ones listed at the bottom of the cyanogenmod Ace wiki page?
Thanks in advance for any help!
Flash and find out. Radios are location dependant. I'm using last cm nightly and the radio signal is bad but I'm too lazy to flash a different radio to find out.
Rils are for sense roms. Whatever ril comes with the non-sense rom, thats the ril to use.

Thanks for the tip, I wasn't too sure about the RIL's. I had just read that the wrong/incompatible radio being flashed could brick the phone, so I wanted to see if anyone had tried.
I still have my IMEI nmber, it is not zeroed out, but network would show up as empty, and there is no mobile network it says disconnected.
Anyone can help ? thanks!

Oh I was thinking about that. But I thought r433 has the newest modem so that s what I should use..so which one did you download.
It is not a WiFi on issue but I don't see carrier issue.
Modems are never included in roms. Go to settings -> about phone and look up your baseband version.
You can find flashable modems here
