This thread is mainly created because the
previous thread by @
spitya seems to be abandoned, and several users have expressed their desire that I would keep these modems in a separate thread.
It also serves the purpose that I can keep the OP updated with the desired info, instead of referring to some post buried deep in the thread.

The files made available here are extracted from the official Samsung Firmware made available from
SamMobile website, it will save you from downloading in access of 800MB of data with average download speed of 15KB.
Mainly it will be firmware specified for the EU market, as I am located here and will be using these firmwares, if you want your specific region included, I would appreciate if you would make sure to make the files available as they become updated for your region, since I don't intend to waste time on something I am not going to be using.
Since I intend not to delete any of the files, it is also essentially a resource with all the different Modem versions released.

The modem found here is only working with Samsung Galaxy S4-mini (GT-I9195), it will not work with any other variant of the S4-mini.
Weather the latest modem gives you a boost in signal is very depending on your location and provider, the best advice is to try a few different modems and select the one you feel works best in your case, how ever it is recommended to use the latest since it contains the last security fixes from Samsung.
File versioning: Some of you might be unaware of how the Samsung versioning of the Modem is layed out, I will try to give an accurate description of what is what in the versioning.
The filename displays the version as
I9195XXUCOG1, the layout of the versioning is as follows:
- I9195 - Identity of the phone supported
- XXUC - Identity of location [XXU] - European location
- O - Year of version (here 2015)
- G - Month of version (here 7.th [July])
- 1 - Compilation number, goes from 1 - 9 and A - Z
