Is the KJ3 modem compatible with CM7? Is it possible to get a CM7 version?
I found a CM7 version of KJ3. From that I created a KK2 version also for CM7, testing it now.

Is the KJ3 modem compatible with CM7? Is it possible to get a CM7 version?
Due to never using the CM7/MIUI ROMs I haven't been updating the modems. I thought those ROMs were 19000 only but just recently I found out a I897 or I9000 modem can be used. I will try to update the modem section for these ROMs with the newest modems BUT I have no way to test them so if one isn't working please let me know OR if you have a working CWM file let me know and I will add to that section.
Thanks,
Soggy
TLJL3....I believe it is based off of the Nexus S, but don't quote me on it. If I knew how to pull it out of the ROM package, I would. But that is way beyond my abilities.
I added the KK4 modem to the I897 section of my website.
I added the KK4 modem to the CM7/MIUI/I897 based section as well.

When u r in a phone call conversation...tap the volume down button a few times.
Hello, after installing a new modem, in-call volume became very loud, how can i decrease it?
MEMBERS: I appreciate what you're doing, but please link to this thread instead of directly linking to website pages so members can comment or read comments in this thread before flashing modems and as always, install at your own risk, I am not responsible for any damages.. Thanks!
Website - 【100+ Captivate I897 ♦ I9000 ♦ CM7/MIUI ♦ ICS】+【Google Location Map】
Check out the *BEST WORKING MODEM LOCATIONS GOOGLE MAP* that anyone can pin
their best modem(s) that works for their area to a public Google map and when moused over it displays the modems. TRY IT!
Here is a great website to determine what band/coverage your provider uses. Just type out your country and select your network ect. from the drop down menu.
Which is better, 850 or 1900?
In general, you are going to get more performance out of 850 than you are going to get out of 1900 for several reasons. 1. As mentioned earlier, back when the 850 licenses were issued, they had to cover a certain amount of land cover. This required deploying their system throughout many rural areas (not ALL though). 1900 licenses only need to cover up to 67% of the population, and in many cases they don't even have to meet that. 2. The higher the frequency, the shorter the usable range. You need approximately twice as many 1900 MHz towers to cover a given area than 850 MHz towers. Most 1900 MHz towers are in urban and suburban areas. A properly built 1900 system will work as well as a properly built 850 system, but it will likely cost more to deploy and operate. Sometimes 1900 will work better in a city because 1900 MHz signals tend to work better in the middle of the city with large buildings as the shorter wavelength allows the signal to go around corners easier. Also, due to network loading, 850 towers have to be "turned down" in urban areas so as to not overload, so the playing field is leveled. 3. Leaving the technical details aside, it seems that 850 MHz signals penetrate most modern buildings better than 1900 MHz signals. There are many factors involved such as the material of the walls, the proximity of the local cell towers and various other factors. The fact that 850 MHz carriers have been in operation longer and have optimized their coverage is an important factor to consider. If there is a window nearby, chances are that either system will work, assuming that there is some sort of signal available at the window! The bottom line is this: when you try out a service, make sure you bring your phone to all the areas you'll be using to make sure it works where you need it.
how come in the i9000 section, all the modem names start with "captivate", but not in the i897 section? isnt the i897 the captivate, and the i9000 is the international galaxy s?
I have also found this with roms. specifically, i am currently running the KK4 saurom, but the splash screenw hen i turn my phone on says i9000. in about phone, my kernal says its the i897UCKK4... so why the i9000 splash screen?
anyway my main concern is about the modems, especially since i live in the toronto area, and my i896 stock modem is kh2, which has never been able to get a lock for me, and yet the i9000 KG3 modem works much better... but then id be running an i9000 modem on an i897 rom, and i want to stay with an i897 rom to have better call quality.
