Best stock firmware + modem combination for Galaxy S - Galaxy S I9000 General

Guys I hope it helps some of you who wish to remain stock.
I have been using the JVT since it came out, have been quite pleased with performance and battery life, however the wifi disconnection bug has been a pain during my long skype conversations and the phone fc has also happened couple of times while it should not...
I have tried to solve this issue using stock combinations and after several trials, the solution for me was to have stock JVT + JVK modem. Phone works really good, no fc bug, no wifi disconnection, great battery life and performance. I am honestly totally pleased and will not flash my phone again until we have ICS bug free for our phones
I honestly hope it helps some and please ignore this message if you think stock sucks.

you need to flash jvt first, and after that flash jvk modem?
so should flash jvk modem on to existing jvt?

Yes, that is what the man is saying.

where can you get the JVK modem on its lonesome? extract if from a 3 file from samfirmwares?

You can get a jvk modem from various download sites, just do a Google search for jvk modem.
I've been trying this combo for a few days and it's rock steady.

still runing jpg.

Which CSC did you use? If it is the JVT stock, which CSC was it as there were two CSC files in the package. Thanks

Can you please specify exact version of modem? I guess stock JVT stands for XXJVT 2.3.5 rom and modem could be XWJVK or XXJVK. I m not sure. Links would be helpful as well.
Thanks

Nice, I've been waiting for such a combination without the wifi disconnection bug.
How did you flash the modem? First install jvt normally and then flash only the jvk modem? Ty

Damn... still have the wifi disconnection issue even with this combination

I thought modem had nothing to do with wifi (bug-wise)?

Hi, I am sorry to hear, somehow the wifi bug has not appeared for me after the flashing. I cannot explain why this is not happening now, but before it was coming always when I used skype, now it us not happening. Sorry I could not be much of a help! The phone fc bug also stopped for me after flashing xxjvk modem. I can only say that I'm probably a very lucky chap then.

jvk modem is good...but i didnot suffer any wifi disconnection with jvt modem ...i think problem is with jvs modem

I have installed the DK28 Modem via Odin, Why is my baseband still DK17?

In about phone, my base band is S700.0.5S.DK17
Why?
I have installed 2 DK28 ROMs without issue as well...
Well now im getting reboots on texts.

Because the modem flash failed, even though it said it didn't. Flash the DK28 modem using Odin again.
I have 3 times now, what am I doing wrong?

Redownload the modem. From different sources.
Sent from my Venomous Viper of an Epic in the Mile High City
I tried that, as well as the other options if it failed (which it never does).
Still DK17.
WTF
Try using going to DI18 with Odin, then using Firon's flashable dk28 to update. This is the original thread.
Try posting in the right section. Thanks
Sorry, I assumed this would be a dev issue.
In any case, nothing seems to work. I tried the above, when I took it back to stock configuration it still said DK17, and still does.
Everything seems to work OK, GPS, 4g, 3g phone data, everything.
What would this be affecting and are there any other things I can to to solve this?
Thanks,
BD
This happened with me as well. And this isn't my first time flashing a modem so i know I did it right. I've ran several dk28 roms already and everything works perfectly including gps. Im leaving it as it is.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
Well I have tried everything I can think of, nothing changes it up or down.
I guess since everything works, Ill leave it alone.

Iam having the same problem has anyone figured out why our baseband won't change I have flashed over and over and my baseband is stuck on dk17. Thanks

FINALLY found the best battery saver modem!(downloads available here for all modems)

Just wanted to share with you guys, I flashed a JS7 pda and ZSJPG modem recently, and its simply amazing..the battery life is simply amazing..I had only 1% loss in 10hours..I recorded this very well before I went to sleep.the phone of course was in standby mode(NOT airplane mode), taskilled everything and its 79% when I left it there..when I woke up this morning..holy jesus..78%!!!! LOL..You don't have to doubt me, believe me or not..try it on your own..
Btw, I din't flash any kernel or use any tweaks..purely stock JS7, no lagfix no nothing..battery recalibrated of course.
you can find the modem here, big thanks to @addicted2088 for making it a .tar file so u can flash it through odin.

p.s. just found that this modem was mentioned in Doc's modem guide as 1 of the best battery life modem.lol..I think the battery life could be even better if + damian's undervolt kernel =) For those of you keep asking for battery life tips..perhaps you try this modem with damian's kernel first?
p.s.2 trust me, JPY modem sucks if you talking about battery life..I did exactly the same like above..taskilled recalibrating etc..leaving it overnight..and holy jesus..the battery dropped 4-5%..even WITH damian's undervolting kernel that time
p.s.3 YOU CAN DWLD ALL THE MODEMS HERE..A VERY USEFUL SITE, THANKS TO PERKA, YOU CAN BASICALLY GET EVERYTHING HERE, PLS BOOKMARK IT ON YOUR BROWSER =)http://perka.zapto.org/
I second that. Been running stock js7 and zsjpe modem and this has been the best setup ever on my phone. More reliable than any custom rom for me and physically just as fast as any quadrant STD hero rom out there. Its a keeper.

Guys, with JVE modem and Criskelo Gingerbread V15 ROM , I had same result - 1% over the night.
I think battery drain dependes pretty much on ROM used and apps installed, not only on modem.

I liked the jve modem alot on jv1 but was unsure how well a gb modem would be on 2.2.1.
Hows the Criskelo rom? Any fc's? Random reboots? Good enough as a reliable daily phone? I downloaded it but js7 was working so well I left my phone alone. The most reliable setup to date. Phone has not been rebooted or powered off for 4 days now and not one task killer applied. No auto record on calls. (The only reason for leaving Darkys)New subtle changes and 1500 - 1560 everytime on quadrant. Stock rom with voodoo. Happy as.

Criskelo ROM is great - no problem with v15 . Minimal tweak for low memory settings should be applied.
Does this modem support 850 band?

The same here with JVE, the best modem regarding batt life and signal reception. i tried ZSJPG, but i noticed that the signal reception was worst than XXJPY so i tried JVE and now i am happy camper.
ive tried the modem you recomend and i see improvement with my battery to !thank you !
Thanks for this guys.
Will try later.
I flashed darkys final and I got 40% drain over my 6.5 hours sleep. Spare parts told me it wasn't sleeping for 5 hours.
watch out! noob question!
can i update my phone with only modem file in odin? and keep all data?
And also does anyone have apn list for JPG modem?
In odin, what i need to mark?.. (i used it just for kernel up until now)
BTW i got lagfix should i turn them off before flushing this?

No, you cant use Odin with just 1 single modem file, you have to use this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=755265..dwld the CWM file if you are using heimdall..and then extract the modem.bin file from the update.zip you dwlded..put that modem.bin file ONLY in the modem section and flash

ALWAYS disable lag fix and backup first when you are about to flash new stuffs unless its updates from kernel to kernel

If you would be so kind to put up all of the files!
me = first time for this rom & modem. Currently on JPY and NOT happy with battery life!! :_(
I have 512 pit file. Just need the other 3
p.s wait so you're saying we can have a rom, a different modem to the rom mixed in one firmware???

Yes, you can update/change modem using Odin by flashing the modem only, no pit and no re-partition, I do that all the time. The modem has a separate sector on the phone ROM, flashing modem only will not erase your applications or settings.
Good luck
tnx but what i need to mark on odin?

Loss of data connection ( and buggy phone part)

Hello
i just updated my galaxy s to the leaked 2.3.3 build from a danish 2.2.1 build i tryed reflashing it since i had problems with no data connection and errors in phone part ( though it worked, just a bit buggy) the reflash and repartion that i choose to do since i had voodoo kennel on my phone before did not help either, so now my phone cant use data connection
anyone have any suggestions? maybe it is a common error? i tryed googling and looking a bit but did not see anything.
I really appreciate the help, another thing i would love would be a 2.3.3 build with danish keyboard/speech in it.
Are you saying that you flashed to a phone that was lagfixed .
If so its broke your phone Undo lagfix before flash is rule one .
You will need to flash stock rom using Odin to get a working phone .
jje
Okay but i flashed the version that was out in the forum with Odin, what Rom should i flash to get back to a state where i can flash 2.3.3 with Odin again? and will i need to re partion, i kinda thought that would take care of the laggfix?
I'm not sure what your problem is. Just take the files from the JVK Rom (PDA, Modem, CSC) add a pit file (512.pit or what you want) and select repartition and click start. Don't need to disable lagfix if you do it that way.

Hmm okay the thing is i already did exactly that and still no data connection :S
Maybe i need to flash a kennel without laggfix?
I have now flashed samsung stock kennel for 3.3.3 , i have reflashed 2.2.1 the version i get from my kies in Denmark and everything works in 2.2.1, now i tryed reflashing 2.3.3 and i still got the same problem as before any help would be much appreciated

It's not a file, it's the name/details of a server on your provider's network. If you didn't back up your original firmware, you'll probably have to call your network or check their website.
Word to the wise - reposting the same question after 7 minutes won't win you too many friends
Danish 2.3.3 keyboard - best to wait until the Nordic firmware is released/leaked.
Thanks the VPN from my network provider solved it!
btw i did not repost any question it was not the same question and i only posted course i was still in doubt.
again thank you all, properly never would have throught of VPN Settings by myself
No problem, glad you sorted it out.

[Kies][XEU][JVQ] 2.3.4 is now official!

Unfortunately isn't JVR, but... JVQ is now available on Kies for XEU product code!
Last modified: 2011-06-28, so I think this is the same JVQ that we already know.
I'm uploading it now, thanks for the info.
Edit: http://www.multiupload.com/IZ2B0N2TID
Please send me a link to flash i was looking for a gb stock might as well try this one
I don't think it is the jvq we all know. This one last modified 28.06.2011 and the one we know is on 10.06.2011
Has any body updated ti it yet through kids

The version that kei_kusanagi uploaded is the version JVQ we all know, cause the files in the .tar archive are all dated 10.06.2011 and one (modem.bin) from 09.06.2011
second that,
is this the same bulid date as leaked jvq
Just updated. Date 10 june 2011
so its the same date because i was going to put my phone back to jm1 then update it to jvq throught kies but if its the same theres no point in doing it
The cache.rfs is different, but i don't think that this fixes the bugs that we all know:
GPS not working at all for some people with JVQ modem. If you flash the JVO modem, it's working.
Auto brightness working only with a delay of ~15 seconds. For some ppl it does not work at all.
Phone app crash, if a call over Bluetooth was ended by the "other side". Phone needs to be restarted after this. Happens with or without custom kernels.
So why are Samsung putting out through Kies an older of Android verion JVQ when they have a newer one JVR?
Just put my phone back to jm1then went to update through kies was offerd as a update to jvp

cache.rfs is exact same as in darkys leak-push - same date/time and size
- gps is working as it should on stock system
- autobrighteness: (same)
sensor is checking every 4 seconds for lux change when screen on only - ok for me not much spam
it takes 2 seconds after registering change in lux to change brighteness - for me very good response time

if it is otherwise saay thanks to your kernel/theme developer for breaking it
- it is not so easy to trigger for everybody and in fact phone restarts the crashed modules in like 30 seconds or so
there are a lot more issues not fixed with jvq and fixed with jvr
Anyone got the "process com.android.phone has stopped unexpectedly" when ending a phone call yet or too early to tell dya think?
as it is the same files as in 'earlier jvq' the bug persist
Just updated from JVO to JVQ. Rooted with CF-Root-XX_UNK_JVQ-v3.7
Going to find jkays theme and get that back up and running.

i9000 with ICS problems.

Guys,
I've been using an SGS, followed by an SGS 2 and have always used custom ROMs without any issues in the past. I have recently traded the SGS 2 with a friend for my old blu-ray player and an old SGS. Long story, won't go into why.
No matter which build of ICS I am using, I am getting serious problems with this phone. SlimICS does not find a signal at all, it just says no service. On the one I am running at the moment (4.0.4 GTi9000_IMM30B_BETA_8_RC) and also with the nightly CyanogenMod builds, if I take or make a phone call, everything is fine. When I next go to make a call, the earpiece does not become active. The data and normal network connection is still active, but this renders the phone almost useless - having to reboot the phone every time I wish to make a phone call takes as long as sending an email for me!
Also, I should be able to choose Tmobile Orange as my network service as I am with T-mobile, who is partnered with Orange to give better signal. On the ROM I currently use, "Tmobile Orange" is not a selectable network.
Is this a problem I can resolve by flashing with a different modem?
If I can't fix this I will probably just run over the phone and buy a Nokia Lumia (change does wonder for a headache!)
Any help is appreciated.

Yes I've actually used the JVU one from it and I also tried using Odin to flash it manually using the modem I am able to get Tmobile Orange with at the moment on Gingerbread - neither work.
Is there a specific modem I need to use in the UK to get this reception?
Go to samfirmware and see which it is under your section. Ex my download is called something like ""XX-KG3. Which means my modem is KG3.

I am getting nothing from the Checker page when I type in the details I have.
Like I said, I know it is JVU firmware I have because I've manually flashed it and it works perfectly, but when I install SlimICS it simply does NOT pick up a signal at all, even if I flash it with a radio seperately afterwards.
No signal
I installed Slim JB yesterday and no signal at all.
I tried JPG and JPU modems from this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1158783 but no avail.
Still no signal. I am going to try with other sims and even other roms to asses my problem.
