Hi

I have a GT-I9195 with Android 4.2.2 xxxUBML4 baseband and buildnumber. If I update the device by Kies or flash it by Odin, everything works fine, except the baseband won't be updated, it is still baseband xxxUBML4 instead if xxxUCNH5 installed. So the Wifi doesn't work.
Even if I flash the modem itself by heimdall, it is still the old baseband installed, why? I have a Riff JTAG bridge, should I try to flash it directly?
My second device update worked fine.

Regards

semi-normal .... use modem.bin and make it .tar.md5 using tar md5 packer tool and flash 2 times using ODIN in CP section not ap :)

Got another device, I followed your hint, flashed the modem even two times but still no success. I flashed it back to the previous version and back again, even Kies does not work.
Is this firmware or the device corrupt? Have downloaded the firmware from sammobile

Update:
It seems that the modem is not release after a restart and can't be update. If I shutdown the mobile and remove the battery, the next modem download works.
