JI6 modem over JAC's voodoo kernel? - Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I flashed JAC's kernel w/ voodoo & colorfix last night, using the back support files, and everything is good. However, I had previously flashed the JI6 modem for the better reception, and the back support files revert the modem back to JI2. Does anyone know for certain if the JI6 modem can now be reflashed without any ill effects? The thread in the Dev. section is silent on this question. TIA.

Shouldn't pose any issues at all... Ahhh, I see what your referring to. I'm not sure why the official back ported files zip contains the kernel or modem. If you'd like, here's a stand-alone flashable JI6 modem.

[Q] JI6 Kernel CWM Flash

I know there is a CWM flash for kernel back support, and i know we have a stock JFD kernel CWN flash file. My question is, could someone get a JI6 Kernel CWM flash file like we have for JFD?
I know the back support kinda renders this request useless, but still, it's be nice to have the new JI6 kernel in case people are nandroiding between JI6 and JFD for tests and for future uses.
really? no one knows how to do this? Hell, if i have instructions on how to do this, i'll do it. i just don't know where to start.

Flash one of the custom ROM's. i.e. bionix 1.8
It's very easy to create your own flashable zips for any kernel of your choice.
For the JI6 stock kernel pull the zImage from one of the JI6 based ROMs (note - don't use the ones that are packaged with JAC's or KK's kernel). Unzip the stock JFD kernel flashable zip you have (i.e. from the Frankin-Twiz thread) and replace the zImage with the one you just pulled. Rezipp everything and voila you have your very own recovery flashable kernel.

Not what i wanted. the custom roms do kernel back support, which i already have the flashable zip for. That gets me no closer to having a flashable JI6 kernel, only JFD kernel.

JI6 modem installation?

I may be trying to do the impossible. If anyone can straighten this out I would appreciate it. On the theory of not trying to fix what ain't broken, the speed of the setup in my sig works perfectly (until FroYo arrives), but the only issues I still have are reception with 3G & the phonecall (hardly ever 4 bars) functions. I looked on the Team Whiskey site and put the JI6 modem zip on my SD card and attempted to flash it through Clockwork. It "appears" to have installed, but when I go to settings>about phone it still shows the baseband version as T959UVJFD. Is it not possible to use the JI6 modem without an "updated" ROM, or is there a way anyone knows of to do it, maybe using ODIN? TIA...
Holy moly I thought I was the only one with this problem but anyways. Just pull the modem.bin out of the zip flash it through odin, in the phone section

Cool. Nothing in pit or pda?
No I just left that alone.
Edit: to be on the safe side you should flash the 512 pit you can find it in one of the threads. Or do a search for eugene373 2 modem bin something like that. But I didn't use one and it worked fine.

There was someone else in the fusion section, that had the same question. Phone said, modem installed successfully, but the status shows JFD. According to the dev, once it says installed it is installed. The status might not show the updated info.

The baseband version is contained in the build.prop which won't change when you flash a new modem. But if you flashed it, its installed.

[Q] which is the better debloated stock rom

Hey folks
Well I have had my share of messups with my vzn fsc.
Things are settled now as I have been Ble to figure out the stuff.
So after trying superclen, evilfascination, and community rom I have come to the conclusion that personally (and no offence to no one) I like the stock roms more but without the samsung and verizon bloatware.
Could you great guyz suggest me the best debloated and all stock rom which is smooth to operate, has great battery life and doesnt hVe any known issues.
I would b highly thankful for the help, pl link me to the threads guyz.
Regards
UPDATE : guyz the kind suggestion given my dnoyeb here in the second post is really awesome and i suggest all should try this.

Install adryn's ed01 debloat/debing click here
Install imnuts -100 voodoo (or -50 or stock voltage) click here
Installed latest su zip pack (probably not needed) click here
Booted up, voodoo conversion
Then rebooted back to recovery, which is now 3.x after installing imnuts, installed following:

If you followed the steps by dnoyeb, then you are correctly set up on a debloated/deodexed ED01 ROM. Your baseband is the modem/radio and would not have changed after you followed Adrynalyne's post to get to ED01 quickly. You flashed imnuts' ED03 ODIN package which would have given you the stock ED03 ROM and kernel, but not the ED03 modem so you were still at ED01 modem which is fine. Then you followed dneyob's steps to flash the ED01 Debloated/Deodexed ROM which would have changed you to the ED01 build from ED03 build. For all intents and purposes ED01 and ED03 are the same thing. ED03 simply added in a fix for those people who could not receive the ED01 OTA update. The verizon and android both flashing at the same time is just an overlapping boot animation that happened because as I recall you could not do a complete data wipe/factory reset for fear of losing the verizon network while you are in India. So other than that little quirk of the overlapping boot animations, you should be exactly where you wanted to end up - a debloated ED01 ROM and with imnuts' -100mv kernel you should see better battery life if your phone can handle the undervolting.
Congrats!
i guess i did exactly as you have outlined,
i am now gonna caliberate the battery and will revert tomorrow about the backup and stuff
love ya

when i first was learning how to root and flash, the thread for the evilfascination rom taught me everything i know. it does a great job in describing the steps to root and then flash the rom. i personally stuck with the evil fascination because its been so stable from the getgo and i love the overall theme of it. I kept getting peculiar bugs with comrom that i did not know enough yet to try and fix.
I suggest you go to the fascinate android development forum, and read the evil fascination thread.
I updated my post on the first page with links incase anyone else was looking at a quick rundown with links on how to get to a fully rooted / debinged / debloated type setup quickly.
Thanks a bunch matey.
God bless.

so you mean u didnt go for debloated ed01 from adryn and not even the kernal ?
if yes then someday i might also wanna try this out, coz as and when i use 3G my battery drains like hell with the debloated setup as well.
would appreciate some more suggestions.

with EA28 and ED04 + PBJ sv 531 kernal i get pretty much good backup and good 3g speeds too.

Lost sms after flashing to cyanogenmod7 and any othere rom so far.

I've been doing pretty well at flashing new roms and thought i had the hang of it. But when I went from a complete stock fascinate > root > Correct Rom manager install > to Cyanogen mod 7 rom. I can not send or receive sms. I have flashed a couple other roms and even the new nightlies for Cm7. Am I missing something? Is it kernel Based?
Sorry for the newbness of it. But I have been working on this for a couple days now.

I would suggest to use Odin to flash recovery, or VZW roms (when starting fresh or returning to stock, or if the rom is made for Odin flashing) and use cwm recovery to install roms, kernels, zip files or whatever and get away from rom manager...it doesn't work well with the fascinate and while some files and recovery's will flash through rom manager you'll save yourself a lot of headaches if you learn Odin and cwm, now....its not hard, you just have to read, and read and read, especially the stickies in the a and a and Dev section. ultimately though I think you're problem is based on using rom manager for you're install.
This will get you on the right track and all off the links for Odin, recovery, and instructions are in the first post.

That's what it was, I was under the assumption the radio file had updated and it hadn't. Guess i just missed the error in Odin. I just updated to EC09 and they started working.
Is that the newest radio available?

EC09 has proven to have the best performance with all the GB roms (since it's a modem from the GB vzw leak). But it's not the newest since build date is E=2011 C=march 09th.

[Q] Going from Comm Rom to TSM Resurrection?

Want to upgrade from Comm rom 2.1 with the voodoo kernel it came with, probably to the recent TSM Resurrection 1.0. Looks like there's another compatible voodoo kernel out, can I flash that first, and then the new rom? Or do I need to undo voodoo and go back to stock, starting from there? Not sure what radio I'm on, baseband says EB01.
Sorry if these questions suck, I haven't upgraded for months. Looking for opinions on best order of operations here is all! Thanks everyone.

Odin PWGB 2. 0 which is a complete tar package. Then flash tsm res in Cwm. Then you can choose your kernel and lag fix settings
TSM Resurrection 1.0,TKSGB10-18,XIX,ec09 radio.
This is a question. Questions go in the ......question and answer forum.
To answer your question, these are all bml roms. Assuming that you have an ec09 or later radio you should be able to flash it after wiping data unless the Op of the new rom says that it requires the gingerbread bootloaders.

In case it helps anyone, this worked perfectly. I have so far kept the kernel that comes with PWGB2.0 to see how it is, but I miss the BLN tools and voodoo sound.
