Hey everyone! Just wanted to get a thread going with all the current modems to try out with your epic! Everyone's phone handles each modem differently so test them out and find out which one works best for you! For those that dont know, a modem effects 3g and 4g speeds as well as the cell signal of your phone handling phone calls and text messages (the bars

This is awesome. It is nice to be able to find them all in one place. This should be stickied.

I know for me, the EE03 ROM broke GPS and I couldn't get it to work at all. Then, I tried using just the modem & GPS still didn't work. I get so much better reception & 3G/4G speeds with that modem but my GPS didn't work. Any ideas on how I could fix it. I'm some what of a noob. I know how to flash different things & I know how to ODIN stuff... but not too much more.

Big thanks for this. Will make it way easier. I'm going to have a brash assumption here...once the GB drops and we have an available modem, will you post that up in the OP as well? Kind of like a running 'total' of sorts?

That would be magical...like unicorn magical.

mjben · Jun 14, 2011

Thanks. I had been looking around for modems other than the ec05, which was easy to find. I even tried making my own files, but apparently Windows cannot add to or delete content from .tar files.

I had to ODIN the stock tar for EC05
Then I booted, used gps status, reset a-gps, downloaded gps data and waited for a good lock (5-10 min)
then I flashed JUST the EE03 modem, booted and did all of the above again, THEN i flashed the rom i wanted to use, booted and did all of the above once more.

I have two questions I think I know the answedrs to but would like to ask.

1) are modems independant of sw version? In otherwords, can you flash di18 on a froyo setup, or a froyo modem on a gb rom. I think it doesn't matter but I have not heard of anyone flashing an eclair modem after they went to froyo.

2) I would love a way to capture imperical data (logging, maybe gps data) on how eafch works so I could make a call that is based on evidence rather than observation. I posted this and someone sugg3ested logcat....but I do not think it is the right tool for the job. Speedtest was also suggested but that is only a part of what is measured. Free is best cause I am cheap.

3) (yes I have a third now) I assume modems will affect wifi signal and gps reciept as well.is this true.

Great thread (and videos of fricking everything epic). Thanks.

I think Impaler is the only mod, and I haven't seen a post from him in seemingly a month, but I know it hasn't been quite that long.

To be honest, I have not seen anyone try the Di18 modem on a froyo setup. Not sure if that will work. But you can use any froyo modem on the current gingerbread leak.
As for capturing how well gps locks... You can try and stand in the same spot and run it a few times and see how fast it locks and get gps status from the market and see how many feet it locks you within.
Modem's will effect wifi and gps, that's why you can just do a speed test in the same spot to test. Do multiple to get accurate tests.
Thanks
