Use the link i provided. Because you are running a JellyBean Rom you must use the ones on the page i linked.

Is your IMEI messed up or generic. Look in About phone under Settings. Some have had their IMEI get messed up when flashin to a JB Rom. If it is then you will need to restore the efs folder that you should have backed up (there may be a backup on your internal sdcard, where the copy of the salty rom is etc., made during your flashin). If you don't have a backup, then you will need to Odin or Heimdall back to i897ucKK4 and your imei should be fine then. At that point make a backup of your efs folder. Then proceed with your flashin.

Since you live in India, try the modem labeled ddjv5. The dd is the Samsung letter code for India.
See on this page here... http://soggycashew.weebly.com/cm7miui--ics-modems.html

Did you have this problem when you got the phone?

Also, there's no other way of doing it, you gotta keep trying. Are you in a basement or something?

I don't think it would be anything other than your modem since you said you had this problem with stock KK4 as well.

... my phone is not showing any signals after flashing Salty Bean and in Phone Info, 'Set Preferred network type' is set to Unknown no matter what i choose from the list it is always unknown. i guess the radio is not turned on cuz the button below says "Turn On radio". kindly Help ...
Ok, did some google searching, the problem may just be the frequencies that your provider, airtel, uses to operate on--compared with what the captivate will run on. You may know more than i found, so what specific frequencies does airtel provide in your area, 2g, 3g, 4g ?? What mhz ? -- Now compare that to the specs of the captivate frequencies.
Let us know what you find.

Who's your provider? Find out which baseband they sell the phone with (stock) and simply flash that specific one.

Also, after you flash a modem which give you signal and reboot to ''test'' it, is the modem you just flashed still showing under your baseband version?

You didn't answer my question.. who's your carrier and do they sell the cappy? If so, what baseband does it has? That would be the one you want to flash.

What's the modem that's with 2.3.4? You could simply flash that one.

As for your error, it's cause the zip haven't been updated so use the one in aceofspades' link.
