The tool kit is a good place to start. There right about reading though. As far as Roms go. Most do not include the modem/radio. In other words. If you flash one. You should retain your modem. Then it is a matter of setting up the correct apn's for your carrier. This you will have to read about.
For instance> http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=...=waZL4UIgf6B40JcudszWIA&bvm=bv.62922401,d.aWc These would be the APN settings for your carrier if your where I think you are? You didn't say?
Changing to correct APN is the thing. Staying on 4.1 is another. You will want to check that out too. Good luck.
