why is it that every time i flash a rom, data speeds become complete crap? the apn fix didoes work for me. i don't see a reason why this should happen.
Normally each ROM will have a preferred radio. Make sure you are using the correct radio.

Its best to stick with factory. There has never been scientific proof that any other radio is better than factory.

OK I'm lost what rom do you have?
You also can't expect things to work honky dory if you're flashing a lot lol. Im on stock radio with cm7 and have also used miui and at one point android revolution. I've never had data speed issues.
What issues are you having exactly?

If you're saying the APN fix DOES work for you, the answer to your question is because almost all ROMs have the incorrect APN config for some markets.
I tried the APN "update" on the stock radio using CM7 but my upload speeds are still only around 300k. I'm wondering if the network is still behind here in Kansas City.

Indeed that may be the case. CM7 (as do most custom ROMs) already has the proper build.prop settings to allow 1.3 MB/s upload speeds, and you've already tried my APN changes. There are some threads claiming a few people have lost HSUPA from flashing radios, but I don't know if this situation applies to you.
If you want to confirm without a doubt whether or not your market is HSUPA enabled, try this if you're feeling adventurous. First, backup your current CM7 ROM in ROM Manager, then flash the updated rooted stock RUU that came out a few days ago at THIS thread. This method flashes the updated stock image through the bootloader (using the P98IMG.ZIP method), and it flashes a new radio to your phone. If your speeds stay the same then it's safe to say your market isn't HSUPA enabled yet. However, if your upload speeds improve vastly after doing this method, then just keep that new radio that the new RUU flashed to your phone, and restore your CM7 backup. After restoring CM7, flash the HTC-RIL file that matches the new radio (HTC-RIL 2.2.0079HM). You can find this RIL in this thread. Works like a charm, I've been running it for a couple of days now on CM7.0.2 stable. Battery life is very good too.
Awesome! Thanks Henry. I'll try it when I get back into town. One of my coworkers has the Inspire (100% stock). I'm going to ask her how her U/L speeds look after the update as well.
Give it 3-5 days, i used to think that too. Your new rom or radio has to get adjusted to each other. Its like a fine wine in most cases. if you flash a new rom it has to get adjusted to the radio vise versa. Its kinda like a new baby thier brains like a sponge soaks up info quickly. just give it time my freind spend a few days with each rom and radio combo you test and on the 3rd to 5th day, data, and kernal test your setup.

Also, the link for that one is actually a link to the UCLA3 modem again.

Unconfirmed. I don't pay for LTE service since I only ever pass through a small LTE zone. When I pass through the zone, I seem to pick up LTE, but I can't confirm specific bands or LTE speeds.

Blaze supports those bands, but only at 4g speeds. Connectivity is considered good, but if u have access to consistent LTE u will be unable to take advantage of it. I recommend ucld2, comparable to UCLA3, testing for over a week, was running ucla3 on ics beforehand
is the fix needed for the bell note modem (its a gb modem) will find the link for it.
emmellst, where did you get the UCLD2 modem? This modem is more stable for me than seanzscreams. Thanks!
With seanz' modem, I would often lose internet connection and sms even though it shows I have signal. And I have to keep playing with *#2263# when I restart as I can't get LTE until then.
But with the modem you linked here, I get LTE right away after reboot and I haven't experienced the internet connection and sms issue.
I did compare the contents of the zip between yours and seanz' and there's a difference in the amss and mdm sizes.
Anyway, I was just curious and very thankful for your links.

Hey guys,
Sorry if this is the wrong forum but I looked at the Blaze 4G thread in the Development forum and searched but didn't really find an answer / didn't wanna revive the thread so anyhow, two questions!
1. Some ROMs ask you to flash this after flashing the ROM. Is that for speed or is it because the stock radio / modem gets erased / doesn't work as well with the ROM? Sorry, I feel like this is a noob question but I'm asking because some ROMs have custom kernels (which I'm guessing replaces stock kernal? Or maybe you flash that separately?) so if the ROM asks you to flash radio, is it because it doesn't have radio and stock radio gets deleted / doesn't work?
2. If they tell you to flash the Blaze 4G modem just for speed (and the stock radio doesn't get removed / works just fine), is it worth flashing it when where I live doesn't have 4G capabilities (yet)? Like would it mess up the frequency or something / change it from GSM status to like CMDA or something? sorry, ANOTHER noob question, OT but I read somewhere in XDA that they had a radio (or something, I can't remember what sorry) that could unlock Droid 4 from CDMA to GSM or something so I'm worried that flashing this might make it not work in the UK frequency anymore / not really be worth flashing because it wouldn't affect speed much anyway?
Its useful for internet speed and range. Its 4G only, so this wouldn't be of use to you, sorry.

Thanks for the reply! So I'm guessing stock radio would work as normal? I'm thinking about flashing GOV3 and it said to flash Blaze 4G after flashing ROM so I wasn't sure if it was necessary or just a preference
No problem. Well in your case, 4G isn't supported so keeping the default stock modem is perferred, this will present less problems.

How do I back up stock radio though? Not flash a version of the stock radio uploaded here, but the one that came with my phone? Ya'know ... just in case
Flash any ROM (I mean ANY) and it'll come back.

Hello. I just bought an S II LTE on Docomo. Am I right in assuming (I decided this in a fever dream of tiredness last night, so I don't know where I saw it) that ROMs designed for this ATT version of the phone will also work on the Docomo one? I know the buttons are different, but perhaps the ROMs take that into account?
If I'm in the wrong place, does anyone know which ROMs I should be using? There doesn't seem to be much talk at all of my version. Quite worrying; don't want to stay on GB!

Have no idea what Docomo is. but compare the specs, if frequencies and such are same then u can flash. isn;t the phone called 727?
U would probably need a SIM unlock.

Sent from my SGH-I727 using Tapatalk 2
It's called the SC-03D, it's mostly the same as the Skyrocket. Docomo is the network,
Since I posted this, I tried flashing a Skyrocket ROM on to it. Since the radio frequencies are different, I couldn't use mobile internet. (calls and wifi worked fine) - and because the buttons are different (the Japanese version has a physical home button, and touch buttons for "options" (whatever it's called) and back - whenever I pressed back, it acted as if I were pressing home.
I assume (as someone who knows nothing about these things) that the button thing would relatively easy to fix in a slightly modded ROM. They're the same buttons as the first Galaxy.
Now, the real question: How easy would it be for a modder to set the frequencies? Is it just a question of changing a text file? So then: Can I help? Is there any diagnostic app I could run on my phone to get the info required in order to make this ROM happen? I'm hoping someone could slightly modify the most recent AOKP and re-pack it as a Docomo variant, with not too much time or effort on their part. If there's anything I could do (as someone who lives in Japan and has this variant of the phone), then obviously I would help as much as possible.
Does this sound to anyone like something that could actually happen?

The Skyrocket is the closest phone to mine that actually has a section on XDA. Mine is a Galaxy S2 LTE (only with different radio frequencies and different buttons on the front; everything else is the same - Skyrocket ROMs work on my phone, apart from the bits I've already mentioned), not a standard Galaxy S2.

Do you think I haven't searched for the files myself? Why do you think I'm here?

To be told to "google it" is hardly useful, is it? That was obviously the first thing I tried.

That's why I asked if there's a way to extract the radio and kernel from my current stock ROM.
If you can get the partitions description table for you device you can make an img for both radio and boot...
But that's not guaranteed to work however...
Number 2 if you delete radio and boot images from a stock skyrocket ROM zip you will only be flashing the system...just delete modem.img , amss.img and boot.img (never forget also to delete the recovery.img) ... This way the zip flash can't find the radio and kernel to flash them with the ROM..But I can't guarantee you'll not end up with a brick or if you're lucky with a boot loop !
I rooted my phone with out issues. Then I installed CWMR without issues. I wiped data/factory reset, then wiped the partition. When I tried to install the ,zip, I got an:

? In reading the posts on the link, it appears this is correct.
Next, I'm unclear (yes, UNCLEAR as I'm NOT as experienced as many of you are) as to his instructions:
* Upload to your device.
* Check md5sum (download link has the md5sum)
* Usual flashing precautions should be taken.
* Choose zip from CWM.
* Flash.

I installed the latest CWM recovery, then I got another abort trying to flash CM. This time it is telling me that I need a newer radio. I read through the stickies, but nothing was listed. Here's what I found in the Development forum:

Yes, correct radio.
Google search what md5 is and then grab the software to do it.

I assume you're calling me a baby here. Yes, we all have our "baby-step" moments don't we. I'm sure there was a time when you were new to something too.

I don't think anyone is calling you a baby and yes everyone does take "baby steps" but you want someone to spoon feed you then when you brick it, it will be everyone else fault but your for not reading. Do you have any idea what you are doing anyway?

Again, I've read the stickies. About 8 times now. In fact, I read though all of them again before posting to be sure the radio issue wasn't covered in the sticky, because if it was, I knew I'd get some condescending response.
Back in October, I bought my first Android phone. It was an i897 Captivate. I liked it very much but was not pleased with the fact that GB 2.3.5 was the best I would every get in an OS. I found this site, registered on the forum, and began researching custom ROMs. The members of the Captivate forum were welcoming and helpful. I was able to flash my phone with their help. The first flash resulted in some corrupt files, but they were able to work me through those as well. Since then, I've been running a stable version of CM10.1 without any problems.
I enjoyed the process of flashing the OS. I'd been thinking of an upgraded phone, so I found a new i727 on eBay. Last week, before buying it, I read through the sticky for the first time. It seemed like it would be as straight forward as the i897. Well, it is an entirely different animal. I asked a few questions that I thought I'd get clarification on before flashing. Yes, I jumped into the CWM/stock 4.1.2 question without going back to research it in the sticky, but it just popped in my head and I threw it out there. Sorry. So to answer your question; no, I don't know what I'm doing. However, I am wiling to give it a shot. If you're unwilling help, why not just skip my post? Some one who is willing to help will come along.
As for bricking my phone, that is what I'm trying every hard NOT to do! :laugh: If at some point in the past, some one has become angry with you or other forum members because they locked their phone, I'm not that kind of individual. I understand the risk I'm taking, but at the same time, it is just a phone! My goal here was to get the instruction necessary to successfully flash a new OS. That is what this forum is intended to provide, correct? So far, the members a have been the exact opposite of the i897 forum. Did they roll their eyes as they typed in the messages that helped me get a stable OS on my Cappy? Maybe. But they were still willing to help me through the process.
This is my last post. Thanks to 'holeindalip' for the only friendly response I was given on this forum! To everyone else; I'm out of your hair now. I mean you no ill will. Farewell.
The 727 and 897 aren't that different
Both use Odin to flash stock firmwares
The kernel contains the recovery on the 897 and on the 727 the kernel and recovery are on seperate partitions
Besides the partition differences its very similar the way you flash everything

A simple Google search, or a search on xda, or reading the excellent stickies would have answered all your questions and some you didn't even know you had yet.
Enjoy the rocket.
