Nevermind, I went ahead and did it.
Created the tar using the cygwin and tar with ustar parameters.

I have attached the original Vodafone Australia i9100T modem.
Modem is I9100TDUKF2.

Confirmed working here. Flash using ODIN.
Please flash on i9100T I do not know if it works on the i9100.

Do NOT flash on a standard i9100 from what i know of this.

I have problems with my GALAXY S2 and car bluetooth system (SAP profile)
I listen only my voice (LISTEN myself in car amplified system)
With other smartphone Optimus 2X the bluetoorh system working very good.
I think that is a radio problem. For this reason I ask if there is an alternative radio version for GALAXY S2.
Thank you

This is what this thread's all about. ;)

Go in settings, then about. Look at the baseband version. The last 3 characters should be something like KE2, KE4 or KE7, etc. Note that down. Get one version up from that from the OP. For example, if you had KE4, you would get KE7. If you had KE7, you'd get KF2 and so forth.

Once you're done with that, flash with Odin by selecting in the phone section and you're done.

i dont think anyone can just recommend flashing to a diffrent modem. you have to flash and test it ..which one works better for you. depening on the country/region.. some modems will work better for some people and some may not

Hi all, with the i9000 and Captivate we used to be able to use SGS Flasher to flash a modem tar file. Used to make it convenient if on the go and couldn't use ODIN. My question is if anyone has tried it with the SGS2 or know off hand if it works. ODIN is easy to use but like I said, its just convenient when you flash a modem then realize when travelling that it doesn't work that well and you could easily revert back. Maybe if nobody knows I will try SGS Flasher app and report back. lol

EDIT: I tested and SGS Kernel Flasher does not work with SGS2. PLus I think it may have only been for kernels but I swear I remember flashing modems too with it.

I am using KF2 with KE7 Modem and 3G internet is more stable than with KF2 Modem. No issues so far.

KE7 was shipped on EU firmware while KF2 was shipped on a regional firmware (Poland if I'm not wrong) and could be that in this country they uses slightly modified frequency range for data or for wifi as Sammy uses software modem to adjust it the bes thing to do so is try and test.

question - should it only be the modem which affects connectivity or can roms and kernals **** it up as well?

Well if the rom is bad yes.. certain apps crashing let the connection fall or maybe some wrong settings in the rild section of the config but it is uncommon

I tried all modem versions but bluetooth problem in my car persists.
I wonder why no problem with lg optimus dual ? With this smartphone bluetooth car system working immediatly.
I think that is a firmware samsung GSII issue or bluetooth version 3.
What bluetooth version have lg optimus dual ?

    Modems guide

    MODEM GUIDE

    Which Modem comes with which various Stock firmwares can be found out here:
    http://devsrom4android.blogspot.co.uk/2011/10/samsung-galaxy-s2-firmware-updates-via.html


    RECOMMENDED MODEMS TO TRY:

    KH3
    XXKI4
    NELP2
    NELP3
    NELP4
    XXLPX
    DXLP9
    DXLPA
    BVLP7 (tested by many, deemed to be a fantastic modem)


    DEFINITION:

    *Modem/Radio/Baseband is all the same thing and can be seen by going to Settings - About Phone - Baseband. It's basically a driver which receives and sends Mobile Network signals as well as handling switching between GPRS, 3G, HSDPA etc....... (but not WiFi connection, that and switchover between Mobile Network and WiFi is handled by the kernel). Reasoning as to why Modem has no influence on WiFi can be found in this post by Entropy - http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=28052552&postcount=6556


    USAGE:

    *There is no one "Best" modem for everybody. Unfortunately you actually have to try to find the modem which works perfectly for you on performance, strength and battery drain levels. The good thing is that from my lengthy 8 month experience with Galaxy S2, I'm happy to report that there are a few modems that seem to perform well geographically for most users. These modems are KE7, KH3, KI3, KI4, KL1, LPS, NEKF2, NELP2 & NELP3.


    COMPATIBILITY:

    *Modems do not need to be matched up with firmware like it's done with ROMs and Kernels. For example, a KI4 modem can be used with a KL1 ROM and the other way round. The only thing you need to pay attention to is what model your SGS2 is. 9100 and 9100 modems are compatible across both models. However, 9100 model and US variants are not cross compatible since the devices are designed to work on different bands.


    INSTALLATION:

    *I will add a flashing guide to post number 5 soon, hence why it says "Work in progress.....". For the moment I suggest asking Mr. Google to do a search for you. Bottom line is, for CWM packaged modems you need to be rooted and have a working CWM recovery (flash the CWM modem zip within recovery). For .TAR packages, all you need to do is flash it while your device is in Download Mode and connected to ODIN. The .TAR file should be selected in the PHONE field. Don't touch anything else.


    TESTING:

    *Usually just flashing and then using the same modem for 3-5 days should tell you how well it performs in your are and with you Mobile Network operator. Please remember that it takes around 2-3 days for a Modem to "settle" and achieve optimum performance, so don't judge how good a Modem is straight after flashing. That's where a lot of people fail when asserting battery drain.

    Signal strength and quality can be tested using this app:
    Network Signal Info

    Download and upload speeds on your network with a current Modem can be tested using this app:
    Speedtest.net


    RESULTS:

    Testing done by 3ayachi (Tunisia)
