G935W8 Modem - Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers

Hi Guys,
Does anyone know where I can find/ download the stock w8 flashable modem?
I'm using RENOVATE 1.0 ROM and it's very nice... just my cell signal is poor compared to stock.
Thanks for your time!

Thanks for a point in the right direction
I'm assuming once I open the .zip it will have the individual modem file to flash via Odin?

No you will have the whole rom you'll have to flash, honestly i dont believe that rom flashed a new modem, they really shouldn't.

that's too bad- I already have my stock file backed up with twrp... no need to reflash whole firmware.
I thought the recovery used to back up modem file as well? or am I mistaken?
It's been so long since I've played with this type of thing...

I think you have to specify to backup the modem.

Keep this updated if you do get a hold of a flashable modem. I'm in the spot and would like to reflash the stock modem.

[Q] Modems...

Quick question. I've flashed modems before when installing a rom (like any of the i9000 kernels) but was wondering if that modem stays when I flash a rom like, Cognition. Are there times when the modem stays? If I flashed to, I think it was JG8 to get HSUPA with an i9000 kernel, if I decide to go back to the CogKernel, do I have to swap out the modem again?

I believe when you flash COG it will also flash a new modem. I dont' recall which one DG has in the latest COG. Anyone?

[Flashable .ZIP] Users WHO DO NOT WANT TO USE ODIN to return to stock DI18 for 2.2.1

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=786266
Download the stock DI18 rom from http://www.sdx-downloads.com/devs/noobnl/stock.epic.DI18.rom.update.zip and move to sdcard
Flashable .zip - You can flash this alternatively Flashable DK28.zip after wiping you phone and flash any DK28 Rom you wish instead of the steps below
Make a nandroid and wipe data/cache 3 times and flash the stock rom and reboot
reboot, go back into clockwork and flash the update.zip for 2.2.1
All you gotta do is flash. I havent tested it myself[in the process] but just wanted to share the info with other who dont trust odin
I take no credit but all goes to noobnl and Firon for the flashable modem
*EDIT*
Confirmed that this method worked..will post a pic later

This does work for the ROM itself, if you want to use the OTA. (The modem, probably not.) Good reminder, that thread's buried.
You can also use this if you like.

I knew it was a stock DI18 rom out there from the early days of using OTA's to update...just went to the Wiki to find it.
Good looks on you guys ROM
You MUST Odin to DI18 modem to update your modem successfully. Alternatively, use Odin to flash the DK28 modem.
There is no update.zip that can flash you back to DI18 modem!

But didnt you make the updater .zip to return to DI18? I just downloaded your file for it....
*Edit* im on DI18 already but just for the other users who do not wanna brick their phone...using odin for some users have caused brick...I was one of them
My current Baseband version is S700.0.5S.DI18 - so I assume that means I wouldn't need to sue Odin to revert the modem back? I could just apply these .zips and then apply today's OTA afterwards?
Thanks guys!

Thanks for posting this - I'm downloading the stock.epic.DI18.rom.update.zip right now. You guys rock!
Awesome, thanks Zei for this. I was looking for a way to avoid Odin. Three quick questions:
1 - I'm on DI18 (baseband S700.0.5S.DI18), but not quite stock - I have the deodexed DI18 installed, but no custom ROM). Will this method work for me?
2 - In your link for the stock DI18 ROM in the first post, I'm assuming you're talking about downloading the first file in the linked thread (there are 4 downloadable files in the first post in the linked thread)
3 - What's the best way to restore data after this process - I've made many nandroid backups but never had to restore - can I do a custom nandroid restore and restore just user app data? Should I do a Titanium backup/restore for data?
I wouldn't restore data from Eclair to Froyo... likely will lead to endless force closes and errors.

1. Id flash the stock rom for just in case purposes. No need todo any extra work for no reason
2. Yes, the 1st link is the correct link
3. TBH, I wouldnt recommend a nandroid data restore for this. Seeing as this is a brand spanking new rom I wouldnt risk it then have to start the process over again. Titainium Backup is the safest way togo for now
Thanks to all the Devs who worked on this.
DOes anyone know how to access the TV out function? Or if it is available in this release?
I am up and running after using this version. Seems almost too good to be true so far! Thanks again you guys.

You need to be on stock DI18 because the OTA will not flash unless it has certain stock apps to recognize

For anyone on DI18, you can use this to upgrade your modem to DK28, then flash any ROM you want. This will probably NOT work on other, newer modems, but you can try it!

[Modem] DI18/EB13 to EC05

This will upgrade your modem from either DI18 or EB13 to EC05.....
Flash this in CW and your good to go.
ALL Credit goes to Randy_T at Bonsai, he is the coding genius behind this script I modded slightly, sprinkled in some Autism Awareness and created a .zip for use on ANY ROM.
Enjoy....

If I didn't find using Odin so easy and not updated already I would have given this a shot. Great that users are getting so many different options. The Devs for the Epic are rocking as of late!
Is there a specific version of CM I should use for this? I have flashed it a couple times and it seems to work but when my phone reboots I am still on EB13.

No it doesn't matter which CW you use. What does the baseband version read? Under settings/about phone look for baseband. What's the version number.
is this going to wipe the data on the phone?

I re downloaded and flashed and now baseband is sd700.0.5s.ec05 so must have worked this time.

I've flashed twice and still says I am on EB13. Will this not work with other ROMS?

Well, looking at the script, it checks a variable in the build.prop of the rom (located in the system folder) to see what it should update, so I guess it depends on if the rom is based on EB13, or if it is based on a newer/older version.
If, say for instance, the rom is based on DK28 (or EC05), even though the modem is EB13 (possibly updated through Odin, or even from stock EB13), the script will see your phone having the DK28 (or EC05) modem and not update it.
The only way I see to get by this is if the script is altered to check for a DI18 rom, and flash the DI18->EC05 update; and if it isn't a DI18 rom, assume it has the EB13 modem and flash the EB13->EC05 update. In which case, if the phone doesn't have the EB13 modem, it wouldn't work anyway (right?), and no harm done.
So, if this is your case, I would try flashing the other, specific, EB13->EC05 modem update.zip.

I'm running Viper Synergy which is an EB13 ROM but I did flash the other EB13 to EC05 modem zip and it's now showing correct in my About Phone
Is there any way to get from DK28 modem to EC05 without Odin? I don't have access to any computers that run Odin or Heimdall correctly.
yes i just posted a cwm zip that will update it using redbend_ua
Does this also work with EXT4??

I believe it doesn't make a difference if running rfs or ext4, as this upgrades/patches the modem while in CWM. But, in your case (running ext4), you have to be running an EB13 rom with the EB13 modem for it to work.

Bricked my new s5?

i flashed this and now my phone is stuck on the sprint boot logo and i never made a backup.
ODEXED-NE5-Vol_Nag_Remover.zip
anyway i can fix this?
i was on my stock rom android 4.4.2 with twrp installed
i can still boot to twrp.
can anyone make a flashable of the 4.4.2 framework from stock tw rom please!?
i need to get my stock rom back up and running!
framework.jar & framework.odex
does anyone have these files?
:crying: PLEASE HELP
First things first. Your device is not " BRICKED " . You have several choices here. The two easiest IMO since you did not make a Nandroid Backup are, ODIN back to Stock NE5. Or flash another Rom. Rwilco12's Mostly Stock NE5 is a good choice if you want to stay very close to Stock, but have a few added features.

What stock firmware were you on? Download which ever firmware you have on your phone currently, flash through odin. This will get u to same point your at now but not rooted and no bootloop, so after your done flashing stock firmware, root with method you had used before, everything should be the way it was before, now make a nandroid with you recovery.

What happens when you make a backup? Usually when you make a nandroid, it names the file with what firmware your on. I know its senseless to make a back up, but at least you can find firmware out.

I'm still on 11.0-XNPH05Q. Can I just flash the radio/modem if I don't want CM12?

Hello, all. As the title says, I am on 11.0-XNPH05Q and I really like it and have stuck with it. I don't want to go to CM12 or anything higher right now, but I know there are updated modem/radio files out. To do that, will it simply be as easy as just flashing the radio/modem ZIP like from a Calkulin's extras ZIP in TWRP and I'll be good to go?
Thank you.

No you can't
You can just flash any kitkat based ROM radio/modem file on this ROM
If you want to use CMOS12 radio/modem files, probably you need to upgrade completely to lollipop.
I am on same ROM and have flashed 05Q modem.
Working fine for me.
