How to install custom modem on Samsung Galaxy S2?

Personally, I don’t install custom modem on my Samsung Galaxy S II. Usually, I will stick with the modem that comes along with the firmware. However, you might love that particular firmware but wish to upgrade the modem only. So you have to install official custom modem on your Samsung Galaxy S2 manually. What is the benefit of using custom modem? Well, one modem version does not work well for all the region’s telco. So there are several versions. Some modem might have better signal, speed, reception and coverage and some don’t. Choosing the correct one take time. You need to benchmark the 3G speed, battery consumption, signal strength… Monitor its performance for days. So I don’t change modem much unless I found it really bad (which I did not see one yet).

How to create custom ClockworkMod Recovery partition size for HTC HD2?

150MB, 250MB and 400MB ClockworkMod Recovery partition layout sizes are enough for HTC HD2 CyanogenMod, AOSP, MIUI and standard Sense ROM. However, it maybe not be suitable for disk space hungry Android 4.0 ROM for HTC HD2. So creating a custom ClockworkMod Recovery partition layout size to match the exact size that require by Android 4.0 ROM will provide some extra user disk space.

flash.cfg file in ClockworkMod Recovery partition layout is the one that control the sizes that install. You will see these values in 250MB partition layout. Normally, you need to change 3 values which are boot, system and cache. And ROM chef will provides the ROM partition layout size like 7/200/10 (boot/system/cache) or 220/7 (system/cache).
