I am currently running a JVK Based phone with KC1 Modem. My problem is I am unable to connect to the 850 band. Is anyone else seeing this problem, or is there a fix for it?

type *#2263# then select Combi Bands, Then select wcdma 850.
Should be good after that.
is your phone the north american i9000m or the international? international phones have no 850 support. any bell modem (jl2, kc1, etc) will automatically enable 850.
go into the band selection, then wcdma, then pick 850 only. if the phone switches to the 850 band then your good, just go back in and pick automatic
I used the jl2 modem with jvk and now jvb. Works great. You will not be able to get 850 with a european modem.

My phone used to be the i9000m but I changed it to the i9000. It doesn't connect to the 850 network, when I select the 850 only.
Wait wait wait. Isn't the international version missing the hardware support for 850? If it's missing the hardware it's not going to matter what modem you use! That's your problem.
And it is not true at all that you cannot get 850 on a european modem. I have an i9000m, and have used several european modems (jvk, jvb, etc) with 850. A few steps are required to enable it, that's all. Search and you'll find them.

So did you try flashing the modem or complete rom again?
You could try flashing back to UGJL2 froyo again, then reflash Gingerbread. Kinda strange you can't enable wcdma850 in the combi menu. Did you confirm in the about phone settings that kc1 is the baseband?
