Don't flash.
Just unpack the modem and copy and paste modem.bin into /system/vendor using root explorer.

sorrry I'm a newb user, tried to flashing CM10 nightly rom and succes, but then I realized the baseband is unknown and I can't receive signal. tried flashing this modem http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=20162933&postcount=2 and it cant flashed, it says status 7. tried the 2nd ways to copy modem.bin to radio folder and no luck. can anybody help me? :(
sorry if i post it to wrong section

I have a Samsung Galaxy i987 AT&T GSM US Tablet. I have had CM9 on it working the phone and GPS previously. I now loaded the latest CM10 and have not either found the right modem or have other issues. I loaded the 0923 yesterday and it was said that you could pull the modem from Wiki CM and use CM to load it. I tried both of the modems in the links below one for AT&T and one that says Galaxy i987. Both show that it was successful, but in both attempts the modem.bin file did not show up under the /system/vendor folder. I used Root Explorer to finally move the modem.bin file from both of these download into the /system/vendor folder, and while the modem.bin file did show up, it still has unknown modem baseband and no modem or GPS working.

That is because the latest cm10 move modem.bin back to /radio/modem.bin like cm9 again.

Man, if you want to flash cm10 you have read the whole thread.
Be interested. Don't just jump in.

Wow, thanks for the response. I read the thread every night on the CM10 Development, or is that the wrong one. I saw where dev posted you could get your modem.bin from the wiki and use Clockworks Mod to update again. Also, they were going back on the partition to CM9 like to allow 2gb and that there would be a wipe. Nothing said go to that directory /radio/modem.bin, unless by saying that you could go back to wiki like CM9 meant that directory. I thought I could use Clockworks and do a zip file firmware update. I admit that I am a bit new to all of this, but I have been modding something or other back to the Nintendo PS1 and original Xbox days, I guess I still need to get my sea legs here and will take a thrashing once in a while until I do. I do appreciate the help.

BTW, I got my GPS back, but not my phone. I will go back and search some more, but I got the modem.bin file from

http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/Samsung_Galaxy_Tab_(GSM):_Support_Downloads

AT&T
UCKJ1

Using Root Explorer I put the modem.bin in the /radio directory. The GPS is working great, but no cell registration. I guess I should say, I get data, but when it goes to dial it beeps and ends the call immediately.

Yes, haha, CM9 was on /radio/modem.bin
then CM10 too, then CM10 move to new MTD partition, and modem.bin goes to /system/vendor/,
then CM10 move back again to another partition (not sure if it is back to same old partition or a new old partition :) )
but modem is back to /radio/modem.bin

once it is back to /radio, the one in Wiki will work, regardless of the way it is partitioned. You just need to read inside the zip, the updater script put the modem there.
It is a simple matter of modifying the path within the script for any layout.

Having said that, the older modems in modems thread in dev sticky, they are for pre-MTD time. During original Samsung BML partition, the modem is on a partition of its own, so a more complex method is required to put the modem there, including using CWM (zip) and Odin (tar)
But nowadays is just using Root Explorer and you are ok.
That is why I said you should read the whole thread, you will know such changes happening.

There is a CM10 thread and dev and one in General for discussion.
Ask questions in General if necessary, never on Dev one unless you have issue compiling, or have some other dev bug.

If you are interested on CWM updater script, just unpack the rom zip or the modem zip or any of the CWM flashable zip and have a look at the updater-script within the META-INF.

Edit: regarding AT&T tablet no call, I think it is network related. AT&T know you are on tablet and don't allow making calls. That is my theory.

btw is there a way to save the restore data in recovery mode, just in case if I lost it, I have no way to go back to cm9.

Don't flash.
Just unpack the modem and copy and paste modem.bin into /system/vendor using root explorer.
