Just curious as to what everyone is using as their baseband,

B926 used to be a common base but seeing there are lots of stock firmwares now released which is better ??

Use the Stock+ ROM with the new B960 firmware base

[luvvt]

How can you use either of those as a base when theyre not update apps but rather cwm flashes ???

Still using the original B926 here - never had any issues so never felt the need to change it.

I think I'm on the baseband from B936*, with slower HSDPA:9 upload speed. Hardly use 3G, so can't be bothered to update it.

Flashed via CWM since then.

Edit: yes, I'm on IMEI SV 36.

936 always been solid for me so haven't changed.
Was on cm10.1 now on stock +960

I was on B934 but then I went back to B926 awhile ago. I will be going to B952 in the next month or two but for now I'm happy running JB on B926.

B952 > IMEI SV: 50
B944 > IMEI SV: 39
B936 > IMEI SV: 36
B934 > IMEI SV: 34

I'm on B926, is that bad

I am on Daz's JB 10.1 R2 with baseband 2030 - Is it worth changing to a different baseband?

Also HSDPA:8 and IMEI SV=36 if this helps?

Why would you want to change your baseband?

I thought there may be an updated/better version about to play with to get better reception!

[Timbones]

Do we still think that only SV 26 and 27 provide HSPA:11 with higher upload speeds? Any found another update that does?

Is this related to the RIL, or is that entitely different?

It's not the baseband you want to change, you want to change your imei sv. If you change your baseband from 2030, you wont be able to install custom ROM's anymore.

My IMEI SV is 90, and it also claims to be connected at HSPA:11
I haven't run any speed test comparisons yet tho.
