Check your imei to see if it has been corrupted. It would be under About Phone

How will I know if it's corrupt? It's a jumble of about 20 numbers

It would say null. So you're good then on that.
Any other suggestions ?

Check your modem. Try flashing a new one.

The modems can be flashed separately without changing your base firmware. Go to the modems thread in development and try some of the more recent ones. In the about phone screen, your baseband will be the modem.
Different folks get differing results in different geographical areas.

So all I have to do is pick one and flash with clockwork mod and see how it works for me?

Yep. That's it. Try several of them, or all of them. It's relatively painless. I actually have all of the zip files on my sd card.

I don't know much about modems but I'm on cm10 right now and wondering if I need to change my modem at all. When I look at my phone it says baseband version I717UCLE2 is this the correct modem and if not how and where do I flash the correct one for my rom? I have searched but don't really know what I'm searching for, wasn't sure if the Tom included the correct modems, thx guys

Are you getting lots of dropped calls? If you already get good service there isn't much reason to switch.
If you want to do it it's pretty easy.
You use CWM or TWRP recovery or Odin3 on a pc.
Then you simply flash the modem zip and reboot.
Nope no dropped calls is that all a modem is for? I get good signal and all that as well. I don't want to fix something that's not broken. Thx for ur help

I would stay on that modem. Yes, the modem handles calls, sms, mms, data. If you are good with these services, stay with your modem.
Deleted since I gave bad advice.
False: Nandroids do not contain the modem.
To test one out you would need a zip of your original modern to flash back to, a nandroid will not restore it.
VoluntaryMan said:
If you're just curious you wouldn't hurt anything by doing a nandroid backup and trying the UCLF6 modem. If you get worse signal or anything you can always revert to the backup. I personally like being on the newest version of everything.

There are many posts from users who borked their IMEI by flashing a modem. That number identifies each phone on the network.
I am new to the i-777 and am hoping I can get an answer to a problem I'm having. My data arrows and or the H+ symbol light up showing that data is flowing but when I open my browser or any app for that matter,they have no connection. Data arrows show its flowing but its like the data isn't reaching them.When I pop my sim in any other device data works just fine.I've tried clearing cache,dalvik-cache,factory reset and even 3 other Roms all to no avail.Suggestions? I appreciate any help I can get.

Modems aren't rom specific. Or firmware specific. U can use any.

Well I'm stumped too to be honest. The only thing I can suggest is doing a complete wipe and using odin to return to stock and see if that works. Then upgrade or flash whatever u want from there if that works. Here's some one click programs to return to stock from creepyncrawly. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=18859438&postcount=199
go to the "dial" icon, just as you were making a call, and press *#*#0011#*#*, now, press the back "arrow", go to "phone control", then "Network Control", and to "band selection", and select the correct band for your location(when i bought this phone, it was full on wcdma, and here we use GSM), and be sure to enable "data package" in the configuration.
i hope this could help you

Why take him through this process instead of just going to the settings menu? Also he said he's wiped and gone to several different roms and the problem persisted. Which wouldn't make sense if it was a setting like what you've posted, because it wouldn't stick between different rom flashes.
Just wonder what modem people are using for AOSP Jellybean 4.2.1/4.2.2? Should i just use the lastest samsung jellybean modem? Or is there a specific optimal modem?
Sent from my SGH-I777 using xda premium
It's location dependent. Like everything else here, TRY IT
there is no such thing as a 'AOSP modem'
there are different zip files depending on what rom you are on, simply because of the different flashing methods between the 2...the actual modem.bin's are the same.

I personally use uckl7 modem, found it to be the best for my area rural California mountains. Just test each one out for while to see what the best one for you is. I don't think there is an almighty best modem.

Might be a coincidence but who the heck knows,
I flashed the n4 conversion today to test something and when I returned to stock I no longer have LTE.
It doesn't seem to be the area because my tablet has LTE and is working fine.
my baseband is APQ8064/MDM9x15M
any idea what might be wrong?

Ether you still have your n4 radio if you installed it or your Misc partition could be all ****ed up.

have to flash it via fastboot, extract it from the http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2117576, all the fixes include the modem, just have to extract it first
ok I flashed the modem in fastboot and my baseband didn't change so I assume that means I have the right modem and have had it all along.

Might just be borked, I had a similar experience, shell nut in irc helped me out. might want to stop there. Sadly dont have out convo saved or I would of linked you. Or just basic making sure your on gsm,cmda,lte in network lol? sometimes is the small things that we overlook.
Try *#*#4636#*#* and see if you can pop up to a menu and select automatic for the modem
That code brings up no menu at all I assume that means a fscked misc partition
I found a link to fix that

that is not what that means. You just need to somehow get into your service menu. Maybe the code was wrong or you put it in wrong or something.

Hi, I'm a bit confused when it comes to modems/radios. I currently am on i717UCMD3, and it runs pretty great on T-Mobile. But I want to find another modem to see if it's any better when it comes to reception. However, I can't find any other modems that are for jellybean. I was wondering if anyone had links or anything to other modems?
Thanks!

Read here, here and here proceed at your own caution
As long as its a modem for this device, you can flash away. Take em all for a test drive. Just flash modems, no need to reflash rom with them.

I am on At&T and have never had an issue with whatever modem comes with the rom. Then again, I treat the modem like I do the kernal. It should work with whatever comes with the rom. If it doesnt, for the most part, I wont run it. Right now I am running Hellybean. I was one of the first to try for our device. Lots of options and doesnt suck battery like the KK's.
