Question Does anyone have a CWM Flashable version of the T999VVLDLL1 Jelly Bean Modem?

As you all know, the T999V variants and T999 can not flash the radio/modem files interchangeably between the two.

As such, does anyone have a copy of the Modem? I'm currently running an JB Rom with an ICS Modem and getting some really sad speeds. I checked the Sticky here:

http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1880987

and it is currently not posted.


If anyone is using this Modem, I believe you could follow the steps in this guide to a certain extent:

Thanks in advance to all that reply!

after further googling, I think all I need is some kind soul to extract the modem.bin from their phones. Afterwards, I think I have enough tech savvy to repackage the Modem.bin into a CWM ZIP file for public consumption.

Please follow the steps using either ADB or Terminal on your phone to extract the modem and then post it here. Thank you!


Requirements:

1. CWM Recovery & root (Thanks Chainfire!)
2. ADB setup and know how to use it! or Terminal Emulator app
3. Samsung KIES drivers installed
4. Power on device, Enable USB debugging

**If you don’t how to do above, then XDA forum search and Google is your friend**

Steps:

1. Dump your current modem onto your internal sdcard

# Run Terminal Emulator app and input steps b -> e



OR

# Connect USB to PC & run PC Command Prompt (CMD) & input steps a -> e

a) adb shell
b) su
c) dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p7 of=/sdcard/modem.bin bs=4096
d) exit
e) exit

Nobody sent me anything, so I extracted the modem.bin file from a root66 kies odin file:

http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1771687

then I created this zip file using information from this thread:

http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1880987

and now...

here's the modem:

Just wanted to say thanks for doing this. I offered a month ago to do this for the thread if someone could help me figure out how to export the modem and I see you just sat down and figured it out. Thanks for the taking the time to do this, Support Canada! T999V forever!

How does this compare to VLLH2 in terms of battery life and performance?

For me it's the same as the previous version. Maybe better signal if you are far from the tower.

Anyone know why does the updater script and radio file still say VLLH2 for the baseband file name? I'm assuming that it is just a left-over from reusing the packaging from the previous baseband zip.

Has anyone tried this and confirmed that it is truly VLDLL1 via the About/Phone menu?

File sizes are different -- new version is quite a bit smaller...so they are not identical...
