Modem without ROM - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727

My fiancés rocket got updated to the newest firmware, with the ucli3 modem and now experiences issues with connection in certain places.
My question is, can I simply root her phone and flash a new modem over her stock rom? I'm pretty sure I can, I just need to make sure... She'd kill me if I messed up her phone lol.
Thanks

those thread have the things u need to put on a custom recovery
1st post in the 3rd link has different radios for flashing.

Yup you don't even need root. All you need is a CWM ODIN tar file to flash a custom recovery via odin and then you can revert back to the old modem.

[MODEM][Odin + CWM] KJ2 Modem [2011-10-11]

I am not responsible if you brick your phone.
This is ONLY the modem, not a full ROM.
I take no credit for this, I only extracted the modem.bin from the KJ2 ROM leak and made it into an Odin and CWM package.
Here is the new KJ2 modem in Odin and CWM flashable form. Simply flash with Odin (in the PDA slot), or use the CWM package. Enjoy!
CWM Package: http://www.mediafire.com/?zlsgcux97vu99h4
Odin Package: http://www.mediafire.com/?n1lb9lq7kligubf
Nw only if we can get a CWM flashable for KI3. I'm at work a lot and can't install Odin here so the CWM flashables are great...... THANKS!!!

only uckk4 is corrupt. that's the one that dropped today. all the other leaks are working. look for uckk3, or better yet get the phone recovered with the stock package, get cwm, (I'd use the defuse kernel oneclick heimdall, quickest way to get cwm from stock) then flash caty rom or victory rom which will be rooted.

I have a small panic attack when I think of people flashing ROMs without knowing how to restore/unbrick. Especially leaks.

[Q] stock recovery

Im on ota from the first leak. Then i flashed the scv7 without making a backup. I downloaded an app that allows you to manipulate the radio and now my texting doesnt work. I normally would fxz back but i don't think there is one for the second leak or ota. If i load into stock recovery and reset to factory will that bring it back to stock ot back to scv7 without a launcher like it would if i reset to factory in a custom recovery
Sent from my MB865 using xda premium
Hate to say it man but I think you're hosed. Factory reset will not fix your text issue.
You need to fxz back but you CANNOT as we don't have an ICS fxz.
Time to get a replacement.

No. It will only wipe user data, and the radio modifications would either be system or radio.img modifications.

This is exactly what we were warning everyone about - IF YOU WANT TO ROOT AND MOD YOUR PHONE ON ICS, STAY ON THE FIRST LEAK ONLY! There is no safety net fxz for anything higher than leak#1 yet. (Sorry, for the caps lock, but it wasn't directed only at you.)
Can you boot into custom recovery (probably not, from the sound of it)? Not sure what and how bad things are messed up, but you can't re-install the OTA through stock recovery.. I don't suppose you made a system.img before this happened? If you can't get into custom recovery, then your only hopes at this point is to flash something with moto-fastboot in AP Fastboot mode - i.e. system.img and/or radio.img - but, that probably won't help unless they are images from your own phone.
Yea everything works but the text messaging . I actually flashed the multilingual stock thinking it would fix but it didn't.

Yea, like I said man. Unfortunately, we have no way of fixing your issue right now. You need a replacement phone.

IMEI restored but still no service!

Good morning good afternoon good evening depending on where you are..
There is a similar thread just below this but obviously my issue is more on depth...
Let me explain what happened.
I was running clean ROM 5.0 and attempted to flash kind of crap mods. In doing so, I lost the ability to make or receive phone calls or texts.
It was brought to my attention that my IMEI may have been damaged and it turns out it was.
I followed the steps to repair it with @puremotive step by step and got it back.
I flashed back to clean ROM 5.0 without any problems. The ROM is in tact and running fine, my IMEI number restored, but I still can't make calls or texts. I can get on the internet.
I tried punching in the *code on the keypad without success.
I really don't want to have to send my phone back to the manufacturer!
Can anyone please help me. I am at work and can't use my phone.
Thank you all very much. Good karma coming your way

I'm pretty sure the sim re-provision code is disabled on TW JB because of the recent exploits reported about malicious folks embedding the code into websites.
Try it on an ICS TW rom and see if that works. If you don't know of one, then Odin an ICS stock image then try the dialer code again.

Download load stock vzw rom version 4.0.4 from sammobile.com and on firmware, type I535, it should pop up with stock vzw rom for you to download. Does your imei match the one on the back of the phone? ERI version should be 5. Let try with original stock rom first, then do *2767*3855# again, hoping it restores your ERI version to 5. Otherwise, you did not restore your imei correctly.

It could be the problem, but try original stock rom from sammobile.com, search box type I535 and it should pop up download section for you. ERI appears automatically when you restore imei. I did this thru QPST program and manually input imei from the back of the phone. Anyway, try unrooted stock rom first to see imei and ERI popup after you do *2767*3855#
I think I must be a moron... I'm so sorry for being a pain in the ass..
I am running a custom 4.0.4 ROM now.
Do I need to completely unroot my phone to downloads ad that stock version from sammobile?

***Must be on vzw stock rom that originally came with the phone, you can download that rom from sammobile.com, click firmware and type i535 in search box. Just register for username and password to download the rom, and then after you reprovision your phone, just root the phone again if it works and you are able to make or receiving call. Try this first!!
If all of the above does not work, try to repair your imei again and here is the link and instruction to fix imei to get the ERI:

YES! Do just like they said. Use only the SAMSUNG STOCK ROM. People have been telling you this for a while, and you continue to use custom ROMs. You'll lose root, but that's easy to get back. It's more important to have a working phone.
It's all good everyone. I pdykstra hooked me up big time.. I multiple hour walk thru.. But we got there.
I am back in action and fully backed up!!!
Thanks to everyone who helped me.

Unroot needed for upgrade to latest stockrom?

I have the ATT skyrocket rooted and unlocked when I first got the phone in 2011, and is on 4.04. I remember that the post said that I must unroot if I want to upgrade the rom OTA from ATT. Is there any other way to upgrade to the latest stockrom without unroot? I cannot find the post I originally referenced to root/unlock.

^^ what he said. Just get the .tar file from sammobile.com and flash using Odin. You will lose root after this process.
If you want to update using kies (the update is not ota. You have to use kies. ) then s long as kies detects your phone and you have a stock recovery, you should be OK.
However, I believe that you will loose your apps and data with both the methids.. So just use Odin

Thank you very much. I should be able to re-root after the upgrade, correct? Or the lastest 4.1.2 cannot be rooted yet?
I have problem with Odin before, never got anything done with it. Let me try it this time.

I meant it more of an hassle. Plug in Odin then uproot do the update then reroot. Just seems so much easier to flash a stock base rom.

Why would you unroot to do the update via Odin. I believe your logic is flawed here. Although I do agree an install would be expeditious via recovery, your argument is flawed.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using Tapatalk 2
Just FYI - I was on rooted stock, and just did the update with Kies without unrooting. Now i'm on JB unrooted as a result.
