GT-N7100. Sourced from Amazon UK. Baseband N7100XXDMF1. Running Cyanogenmod 10.1 (4.2.2).
Symptom: On boot, may totally have no sound when making or receiving calls. Audio playback by music players etc all work fine. Reboot and it's a toss up between everything working fine, or the symptom. Internet access / HSDPA etc all working fine regardless of call audio.

Cyanogenmod moderators suggest upgrading the baseband to 'whatever the latest is'.

I've looked over this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2044937
I'm obviously too stupid to be able to understand it though ;)

Region codes that the thread says are for the UK: XX & XW. So that means I can use XXALIH, XXDLJ2, XXALJ2, XXDLK7, XXDMB2, XXDME4 (all that shipped with 4.1?), and the just appeared XXEMI6 (4.3 leak?). There is no XW based in that list nor does the baseband that came with the stock Samsung 4.1.2 (XXDMF1) show up on that thread (though, I can't search threads since it's 'currently unavailable')

Do I just throw XXEMI6 at it and hope that's ok? Or should I use one of those others, and if so what one since it's not clear how the version numbers work?

I've also searched and found other threads like this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=36340370 so I guess I'm not alone in confusion.

I use xxemi6 and I'm with three uk. I don't think it's modem related issue. I used dmf1 modem without any issues. Do a factory reset and see if that helps, if not then try different build or different rom (pro bam or pac man rom)

You cannot use anythin older than dmf1 otherwise you will lose connectivity. This is due to a change in the file system as far as I understand
