Does DI18 modem (tar+pit) for Odin exist anywhere?! - Epic 4G General

I have been searching for the DI18 modem for flashing with Odin, but have had no success. I find DI18 full OTA in plenty of places, but not the modem + pit file anywhere.
If you know, please do point the wya.
Thanks.

I have looked at the wiki and many threads before posting. I find many ROMs/OTAs that contain the modem, but not the modem tar and pit only.

I came across this thread before as well. All I see is the full ROM with modem, not modem ONLY. I display 100 posts per page, but don't see the DI18 modem ONLY.
I usually don't need to be spoon-fed, but I am puzzled. Please advise. Thanks.

The tar has the modem

But don't I need a .pit file to flash with Odin? I have that tar file but always thought that a .pit file is needed?
I have both the DK17 & DK28 with modem.tar and .pit. Is the .pit version specific, or can I simply use the .pit from there (and build the .tar using the modem.bin, of course)??

You don't neef a pit at all. The pit is for mapping. When flashing a full rom tar the mapping is built into the tar

But what if I am flashing modem ONLY? I want to downgrade my modem on my DK28 ROM, so all I want to do is to flash the DI18 modem.
In this case, don't I need the .pit file, since I am not flashing the full ROM?
By the way, I tried using the flashable in Clockwork, but like many others, it didn't work.
Thanks.

It seems to be working fine for many here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=922428
Edit:
Back to my original questions:
1) Is there a DI18 Odin (modem.tar + .pit) flash?
-or-
2) Do I need the .pit file if I am flashing modem only?
3) If I do need .pit, can I take the DI18 modem.bin file and inserted into a DK17 or DK28 modem Odin package? (I tried this, but it didn't work, don't know why. Is there a different procedure for this?)

1) Take the modem from a di18 odin image. Just open the tarball with 7-zip or winrar.
2) No, but it doesn't hurt to use it anyway. And all the pits are basically the same, with some minor differences in partition sizes. The victory pit is the latest and works with all previous odin-able images.
3) There may be some signing or a checksum needed to create a package that odin will flash.

Question for the OP-
Why do you want to flash the di18 modem? The dk28 modem seems to work fine for everyone. Is there some difference or specific reason why you want that modem?

People are having random 4G/Wimax drops using DK28 modem (mine does this too). It has been speculated that the DI18 modem works better with 4G. I am also suffering the Status 7 error trying to update the modem with CMR 2.5.1, so 0din is the only way to go to get around the status 7 error.
I am also looking for the modem/pit file to use. Can someone detail how to do this with the full di18 rom to just flash modem only?
Thanks!

I have not done this so someone correct me if I'm wrong, but if you open the full DI18 tar file (with 7zip or winrar) you will see modem.bin as a file inside. Copy that out of the tar file into a folder or your desktop. Then in Odin, select "Phone" and select the modem.bin you just extracted.
victory_8G_100528.pit or s1_odin_20100512.pit should work for your pit file which probably came zipped with your odin download. If not do a search for one.

I was able to flash the DI18 modem file using the .BIN from the official full, and the .PIT from Odin (victory). Make sure you select "Phone" and I also deselected "F Reset Time".
Baseband version shows: D700.0.5S.DI18
Running stock DK28. Lets see if this 4g is faster now
EDIT: No service now... anybody have any ideas what could cause this?

I ended up reverting. Was not able to get 3g service, but strangely 4G was working fine.

See my link from post #10. It seems like DI18 solves some random data drop issues. For me, [I believe] the radio locks up randomly, causing the phone to reboot. I am just curious to try DI18 to see if it helps. Despite the notion that DI18 radios to not work with DK28 ROMs, there are a few people in that link that are using DI18 and loving it.

I was getting status 7 as well. Strange that you lost service with DI18. I know that I was able to Odin to DK17 and the phone worked fine. I may try DI18 again later tonight...

Ya mysteryemotionz, and all this guys does is be little people and give out crap information. All he wants to say is, go use the search button. He gets on my last nerve and serves no real purpose here on XDA but to think he is a mini moderator.
OP: Sorry to hear bout 3g crapping out, never heard about your problem, though you gave me a little insight to what I might need when I head to my local 4g area for a couple weeks.

If you use Odin, it will overwrite EVERYTHING.. It does not matter what you have.. You can have a blank rom for all it cares.. It wipes and flashes... Thats it.
After ODIN you will have a STOCK phone, running whatever firmware you flashed the rom with..
Does that help any more?
yep all i needed to no thank you very much sir. and will my contacts be deleted as well? i assume yes since you mentioned everything will be wiped. thanks again

If you save them to your Google account then no they will be automatically synced when you re-connect to GApps.
But seriously I explained this all to you already, go check back in the official di18.tar.md5 thread and you will see my response. You keep jumping back and forth between different threads asking the same exact questions repeatedly, so pick one and stick with it.
You're question has been answered beyond any doubt, so there really is no reason for this thread to still be open.
I'm not trying to be a ****, but that bar up on the top of the page is for searching the forums, so next time use that first and if you cannot find ANY information about your issue, THEN create a new thread.
on your contacts you can also save/export them to the sd card, go to contacts, menu/more/ then you can import or export them.

OK well I've finally broke down and deciding to get froyo since eb01 finally released. ea28 updated f'ed up my gps again and I'm ready for flash. So I had saved a write up that seems fool proof and was just wanting to make sure I can follow this and just swap out the dl30 file with the eb01 file. Correct?? I have eb01_stock.zip downloading right now and already have the modem .tar file saved to my desktop.
OK well it wont let me upload a link but its from android central. The how to that was wrote up on DL30
If EB01 is just a change our even update from DL30....for one I can't wait to see the difference but yea the process should still remain the same.....just input EB01 for the DL30....this one I'm only 90% on so hopefully someone can confirm 100% for ya!!
Id also say try it on your phone!! If it works then obviously that is an accurate assumption to make!!!
If it doesn't keep handy the files to flash back to DL09 for a quick save!!
Best of luck!!!
Edit- herez the DL09 incase of failure http://www.multiupload.com/TYDLC2HJWB
Again Best of Luck!!!

To go to EB01, flash the modem using Odin, and then flash the zip in CWM.
Or, you can flash this all in one package from AC using Odin.

Very useful package, but it should be on an upload site you don't need to register for...

[Q] Can you go from eb13 to dk28?

Well im new to the Rom world and to forum. So..... I guess this is my official start to stardom, lol.
I have a question for all you genieus out there... Can you use odin to go back to dk28(if even needed)?
Like I started to say im new to the great world of roms!!! ive tried syndicatefrozen and it was great for the few hours that work. NOW, i would like to try trinity but it looks like you need to be running dk28 and i cant seem to get it that way?
(so you know i believe i have the correct .tar but cant find pit... if that matters)

Why go to dk28 when there is ec05 out? Try to flash a rom based on ec05. Also viper synergy is based on eb13 at the moment. Going g to dk28 is not a good idea. It was a test build. To many bugs compared to the builds we have now with the custom kernels

nice i wasnt sure if you could use the old roms on new software
Wiki has all the information that is needed.
Yes u can odin to anything at any time.
Some roms can run on higher modems than there built for (a dk28 rom on ec05 modem).
U really only to odin modems for upgrading, rom zips contain the rest.

Looking For EC05 Stock ODIN With NO Root

I am looking for the stock EC05 odin so that I can use Odin to go back to stock when need be. I can only find eb13.
Also did Samsung ever release the EC05 package from their website like they did with eb13?

Use the megaupload link I posted and this Odin. You put your phone in download mode (power on holding 1 key) uncheck f.reset box in Odin, put the victory_8g.pit file in pit box and EC05 file downloaded in PDA box, then connect USB cable to phone and a COM box should appear in Odin, hit start.

It goes straight from DI18 -> EC05 it doesnt do incriments...
there wasnt a stock odin ec05 released, which means if you find one it was made by someone not with sprint or samsung, which means its not COMPLETELY stock.. so if you want completely stock, odin back and ota..

That is probably one of the android central made odin tars for ec05. At this time we still don't have a real stock tar to use to go back to stock.

Yes, you are correct. I just read the whole article and it is indeed prerooted and from Android Central.
I feel you on that. I'm just not so sure that the GS2 will be carried on Sprint. I really would rather not have some kinda variant of the GS2.

No official tar with modem file. We only have a delta that adds code to make EC05 an EI22 modem. Need Samfirmware to release the official tar. You cannot pull a modem out of a cdma phone.

You are only reiterating my point. People want the modem, yet it is missing. Doing it through a delta doesn't seem very clean to me.

Then your point was good and valid...LOL. Yes without a modem to Odin with a tar, what's the point. Everything else is flashable.
