Those are the different radios from different leaks. Use whatever works best for you.

Different modems offer different performance for some people but everyone's device it slightly different so as prdog1 said it's a matter of trying them out and finding out what works best (Make sure to make a backup before flashing and trying out any new modems). You can find a list of modems for the Verizon Galaxy S3 here.

What kind of performance are you talking about?

Mostly in regards to signal strength and throughput on data connections.

Also newer modems are better at switching between 3g and 4g. I use the newest and have no issue (HE)

Does it matter that the latest ota changes the case band version to vrblk3 and the post you listed lists vrlk3 as the latest modem or is that just an abbreviation for vrblk3 please forgive me if it seems it's a silly question as I am new and not sure

It's just an abbreviation, it's the exact same thing.

Phone Reboots during any Calls [Tried SD Card Method]

Hey Guys, I have the Samsung Galaxy S 4G updated to 2.3.3. My phone will randomly during each and every call I have reboot. This is annoying as hell. I've Searched around the Forums and noticed that people have said to remove your SD Card for 24 Hours. I've done this yet the problem still is here.
Will upgrading my Modem/Baseband to something like KI3 fix my problem? Thanks.
the 2.3.3 leaks are crap. Go 2.3.5.

Yeah but all I've seen is all these Custom Rooted Roms and such. I'm stupid with those CWM and Rooting and such like that. I just want the 2.3.5 Stock. I don't want help with trying to get those Custom ROM's even though I do want them.
There is no stock official release if that is what you mean but you can Odin a leaked rom. Their stock.

Downloading it right now. Where do I put what? Thank you
Edit: I see a DLL and a MD5. All I have to do is just Put them in the Correct Area and Flash? None of that Rooting or VooDoo CWM Junk and such? Just Odin and Use? Right?
Edit2: I'm looking and it seems like a ****load of people are having WiFi Problems? I don't want those...

There is the kj2 modem. I don't think there is a major difference.

But how do I apply this radio file to my phone? If there is a prerequisite step please direct me to a post that teach me how to do it
Do a little searching on the forums, but you effectively have to flash the CWM recovery to your phone so you could then flash over the mod's specified in that thread. I can't go into the whole specifics of doing that as there are TONS of threads on it.

Last time i checked the links on the thread are bad.....I unlocked my skyrocket to tmobile and tried dl but links were bad.......so Im on EDGE on the skyrocket but who cares SGS3 is beast ass phone even with the small ammount of roms and mods for it
Per the linked thread a few posts above, search for the blaze modem suggested. That should get you off the Edge network

Once you flash a tmobile modem to unlock the 4g, also try adding these settings to your build.prop
ro.ril.hsdpa=24
ro.ril.hsupa=6
ro.ril.hsxpa=5
ro.ril.gprsclass=10
Supposedly you should get even better data speeds. I cannot verify this. worth a shot.

Thanks for this information. I managed to get CvD-Nibbles 1.6 (Jelly Bean mod ROM) loaded and Blaze_4G_LB7_ICS_Radio_MOD with this settings. Works better now.
I also managed to load a couple T-Mobile ROM like Liquid_All-Star V5.5 and All-Star-Rom V2-1 with skyrocket kernel Sky_p3.2 and Blaze_4G_LB7_ICS_Radio_MOD plus the build.prop tweak to work great.

Can you just drop these lines anywhere in the build.prop or is there somewhere in there it specifically needs to go?

Yes, however the only way to get this update from Verizon has been if you purchased or received a GSIII with an updated sticker on the box. It hasn't been pushed as an OTA yet though.
Sent from my SCH-I535 using xda app-developers app
I got a S3 today and it has G1 on it. I would be listed under received for free, becuase the ICS OTA update killed flash player on my razr.
I wish I knew G1 Vs old build, but so far every thing has been good. ( That GPS is very fast and it hold's on to 4G well + wifi works very well. I have never seen a phone get that kind of speed from wifi.)

I wouldn't bother. F2 is better. Has full search functionality and other than that there is no noticeable difference. I actually got an "updated" one and rolled back to F2.

When you say VRLF2, VRLG1, etc... are you referring to the baseband? VRLF2 is my baseband version but reading these posts, it sounds like you are talking about the version of ROM.
In the Synergy thread, it says "ICS 4.0.4 - Latest I535VRALG1 Base". I have Synergy installed but my baseband is VRLF2. Are these two different things?
Thanks

Yes they are different and you can flash the updated g1 baseband (radio/modem) using Odin even if you are locked and unrooted because it is Samsung official.

Confused

Thinking about picking up the sgs3 tom but I was just wondering what the difference between the original dev thread and the other thread. Also what does d2vzw mean. Sorry if someone already asked this ? But I couldnt find it.

D2vzw is the 'name' given to our variant if the s3 to identify it to apps.
Dunno what you mean by your other question.
O ok I was just thinking maybe Verizon put a updated version out cause of the bootloader getting figured out or something. So If I buy a new one I won't be limited on flashing anything right?

From my understanding (and it's very likely that I'm wrong) the idea between the 2 different dev forums is that the regular development forums is for TouchWiz (in this case) based roms and the original development is for aosp roms. However there are aosp roms in the regular forums so you got me!

I think it's more like OG Android Development are those built from source vs. those that are built off of a base which would be the Android Development section.
The difference in the forum is pretty much official vs unofficial. I.e. original would have the actual CM/AOSP/AOKP/MIUI roms and the other forum would have unoffical roms based on those.

Thanks guys for clearing that up. Looking at this forum I've realized y I missed my fascinate so much. Everything is so much easier than HTC rezound right now. Plus so much More development going on right now. I'm excited lol

Carrier Specific

I'm not new to root and flashing but I'm new to the GS3. Is there a difference between the roms in Gs3 section and the verizon gs3 sections. Im just curious why there are carrier specific gs3 threads and then a general thread. Can I flash from either?
Sent from my SCH-I535 using xda app-developers app
They are all different and if you flash a ROM from another carrier expect to brick your phone. Read the instructions and make sure you have the correct ROM for your carrier.

The general GS3 section is for the i9300 international version. Flashing anything from that section will lead to a sure brick of your Verizon GS3.
