fk23 modem - Samsung Epic 4G Touch

How's everyone's experience been with the fk23 modem?
I know that my performance took a massive hit. I went from having a ping of 100ms and 1.1Mbps down .8 Mbps up on FI22 to a ping of 600-750 and .3Mbps up/down FK23. Not sure if it's just isolated to me or my area would be nice to see how it's for the community.

Im actually not on sprint but I can say that my service has gotten better with this modem vs others.

I started getting the emergency call issue this morning.
Also I started getting a really major this morning as well. The phone will boot up and after a minute or 2 just show the no signal icon. Then after a few more minutes just shut down on me. When I try to turn it back on, it goes through the boot screen and boot animation but then just goes dead. When I try to power it back up, same issue keeps happening. The battery is good, not swollen or anything, also it's fully charged.

I love it. Ping is a little high but I can fix that later. Not sure why it says network unknown though. This is the best since Calkulin and coming from a complete wipe. No issues with modem at all. Loving the battery life too.

[Q] constant red led light.. and still no internet!

i have a samsung epic 4g touch galaxy s2 i flashed to page plus.... been trying to get internet to work but one thing that bothers me besides that is there is a red light that stays on and will not go off! any help would be appreciated... and the annoying error 131 that keeps popping up saying cannot connect to sprint usernma e and or password incorrect...
Have you tried update profile and prl? and the constant red light even when your not charging the phone has been an issue. (a few questions posted about it) did you try powering off and removing the battery?

You have Verizon PRL's? Try using sprint prl and see if it works. That might be your issue. As for your charging light being on, it maybe a hardware issue.

Turn off notification LED blink when phone is on

I like having the notification LED blink when my phone is off and an email comes in, but I find it distracting if I am doing something on the phone.
I didn't want to make a standalone app to do this--I don't want to waste system resources running too many utilities at once--so I added code to disable the notification LED blinking when phone is on to Earpiece, since I already use Earpiece. To enable, start Earpiece, press MENU, Settings, and turn on the relevant option. Earpiece is a hodge podge of stuff I use: quieting the camera (not quite to zero, but very quiet, and in all camera apps, not just the stock one), auto speaker phone (speaker phone when phone away from face, earpiece when phone close to face), etc.
No root needed.
How do you get phone to use led notifications at all other than while charging?

I don't think I have any trouble with that. The red light turns off periodically. Or so I remember.
I mean notification does not work at all except showing when charging... That's it

I'm assuming your on a custom Rom that doesn't support it. The notification light can blink while your screen is off to show that you have missed calls/texts/emails etc.

Data has sporadic freezes

It happens a lot on the xda app, and noticing it alot on instagram. I see no data activity for 10 seconds then it will animate and data will load whatever im browsing. Dont use facebook or twitter. Infact I never used instagram till yesterday and its doing same thing as xda, which is what I browse with the most. I thought it was just the xda site but I guess not. My wife hasnt noticed it in hers but i will be trying her phone out now that I know its the phone.
Surprised I havent found other complaing. Maybe I need to swap this thing out

*#*#4636#*#* will get you a ping test - choose "Info," then "Device information," which is actually telephone information. You can also get an app "Hidden Menus" from the Market which will save you the effort of keying all that in
*#0*# works to get into the Service Menu to test the rest of the phone out.
I am wondering if it's a modem issue. Any ideas if we have any other modems and can we flash modems from the first Note? I saw dagr8's thread on modems but no Att modems available to download. They are all bad links. I think they were having issues with them. I also saw someone posted a newer modem but it needs to be packaged in a zip.

I need multi view so I can watch and run ping the same time as browsing. I have to switch over to pinging app when I see no activity and buy the time I switch over its pinging away. It stops pinging when I am switched over on another app

Doesn't seem any faster at all. I can't tell one bit of a difference. I have a 25 mbit connection and it still takes ages to load photo albums. Still a horrible app.

Idk dude every update that Facebook claims to be "faster" and have "less battery consumption" just seems like bull. It sucks battery no matter what and the app is no faster and completely identical to the mobile site. In fact if you just set your profile to send email notifications it notifies you on everything instantly

Is your question, can you leave this off? Or on?
You're taking about the setting in the Hidden Menu?
Someone else posted something about this, their name started with a"C" I believe.
Anyway, mine is turned off and has been since that other post. I don't really think it did much for my battery life.

So here's the thread it was originally brought up on. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2328478
I remember my issues with it. I'm outside a lot and the phone will autodim down to 67% making it unreadable in sunlight. When I used this setting, I worked great outside but the screen would do some weird things when I left it on all the time. But I think it was conflicting with the autobrightness. It probably does make your phone run hotter as the cpu and the display won't be using any temperature regulation. And the Display has always been an issue on stock.
