I'm new at trying out different ROM's. I rooted my phone, installed CWM through NVflash.
Here's my issue: I've tried both Hellfire GB 2.1 and EaglesBlood ICS 4.0.4. First let me say they both seem to have done great jobs!
The problem I'm experiencing is with placing calls. I tried calling my voicemail and there is a LOT of static and I can only faintly hear the voicemail behind the static. I've tried this through the earpiece, speakerphone, and on a bluetooth headset.
I followed flashing instructions precisely: wipe wipe wipe (even with the Nullifier), install ROM zip, then gapp zip. Boot up and wait 10 minutes.
I backed up my original (T-mobile GB 2.3.4) and can restore to that with no problem making calls.
Help?
try reading a little more next time, the new baseband will not work with anything besides 2.3.4...2.3.4 rom will only be able to make calls on 2.3.4 roms... the only other way is to revert back to 2.3.3 (V21e)

Sorry I tried various search words, and I'm not sure what "baseband" is haha.
Am I understanding you right: I have to find an older Gingerbread ROM, flash that on my phone, and THEN I can flash to something newer like EaglesBlood 4.0.4?
My phone was GB 2.3.3 until about 2 weeks ago with the OTA update to 2.3.4.

No, once you get the official OTA update with the new March 2012 baseband (you can check which baseband you have in settings>about phone) you CANNOT flash any other custom ROM other than the official OTA update or a rom that is based of it because of compatability issues.
The only way that you can flash the Eaglesblood ROM or whivhever ROM you want is to downgrade down to the v21e ROM for the G2x if you search on XDA youll find some instructions on how to do so
Hope this hhelps clear up some things

Here's how to fix. Go to g2x developement, the thread how to unbrick. Then second post. Follow that.
But flash stock recovery first.
Be sure while the procedure is happening, just wait patiently

OP just restore your nandroid and enjoy your phone. 2.3.4 with new baseband works great.
He wants a custom rom. Just follow the steps I told you

Thanks!
Thanks for everyone's input... I restored to my stock ROM for now. I'm hoping it's just a matter of time before custom ROMs use the newer baseband

If you want custom roms just do what I said. Because all the hype for ics, I think tweaks wont come out for a while

I've recently downgraded from ICS ROM Genesis Stable Build 1 after having some lagging issues and problems with call audio.
I just wiped and flashed CM7 HF Phoenix with Trinity T15 kernel, but I'm having similar problems that I had with the Genesis ROM. I updated to the newer baseband on Genesis to correct some call audio issues, but I'm now having the same problems after downgrading back to CM7.
I already tried GetRIL and have matched my baseband, but I'm still having the call audio problem. Do I have to revert back to stock and reflash or is there another solution?

Hello Everyone,
I am trying to update to the new baseband but everytime I run the fix my phone still says I have the july 2011 baseband. I am running Hellfire 1.8 and I tried to do it the way it says by flashing ROM, FIX, then GAPPS. but to no avail.
Anyone have any suggestions? Thanks in advance.

I just got finished doing this, WOW the GPS has a fast lock now. Make sure that you flash the BB FIX after you restore you HFP
Guys I cant install the lg update tool. gets stuck around 10% then just stops. Im already having issues and I havent even gotten to the phone part lol help? tried rebooting laptop, running w7 64bit T420 8g RAM. I dont think its my laptop..
UPDATE: added screenshot of where setup gets stuck.
follow this thread. works like a charm. make a backup of your device first.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1248644
the steps in this thread will restore a stock gingerbread rom. when that is done, use nvflash and put the stock recovery back on as well
reboot your phone and do the update that way (over the air). look in About Phone under system settings and you will see a menu item at the top called software update (or something similar). use that to update your phone, you will end up with GB 2.3.4 and the new baseband
if you want to use a custom rom, eaglesblood build 4 has support for the new baseband built in or you can use CM7 RC3 or a currently nightly, or you can use either kwes or buru's roms, OR owain has a bb update zip that is supposed to work on any rom
good luck!
Sorry it just turned out that it was my jobs firewall that didn't allow the install to talk to the Lg servers. I got home and it worked so I now am running HFS 1.8 with the new baseband. Thanks for everyone's help on this.

how is your BT and call quality? those are issues on all but the stock 2.3.4 that comes with the new baseband (and the tweaked roms based off it)

The only thing I've tried through BT is tethering, as I dont use a BT headset, which works great. Call quality is clearer but not a huge difference. Data drops less often now though.

Try and get as many people to star that so perhaps the developers won't keep telling us it's "Hit or miss" and not a big issue.
I've had no luck with Bluetooth on new baseband but it works great on the stock 2.3.4 ROM from LG. Loaded with tons of bloatware to slow your phone down again.

i starred it and hope it gets fixed one way or the other and i agree, the new stock 2.3.4 works great and getting rid of bloat shouldn't be a problem however, just yesterday and today while running 2.3.4 my phone would just start getting really hot doing nothing but sitting in the holster, screen off, 4g off, BT off, wifi off, dont understand, but i put cm7 june 10 build on and now it doesnt do that
Yeah, I can run custom ROMs and all is well other than Bluetooth for call audio. My problem is I drive all day and have to use Bluetooth, so I'm stuck on stock
Hopefully it will get fixed.
Please dont tell me to search I have been up now for 48hrs searching I have tried everything kdz,cwm, etc this is my problem I have a G2X flashed to hellssandwhich worked awsome but I can't make or recieve calls it sounds like it is farting in the phone .then i tried to revert back using the KDZ method works until i have to load the KDZ file keeps saying error I have tried the v11h_--.kdz no luck I am almost ready to just shell out for a new phone and see if i throw this one will it fly in airplane mode (lol). I did a master reset no luck I returned it back to what I thought was stock still no calls everything else works text,web via wifi , etc oh last detail this is a unlocked phone working on att network
For one, it would help to make a descriptive topic (in case anybody else is having this issue, and for people to see before they click on the thread)
For two, what is your current baseband? I'm not sure how exactly an unlocked phone will work with another provider, so based on the current condition (software/kernel versions/baseband) you may be very limited to what roms you can flash or how effective kdz files are on your phone via the network your on.
I havnt had to do or use the kdz option luckily, but more information should be provided for an informative response.
I would start with 2.3.3 versions, as the audio issues arise with roms conflicting with baseband versions.
Also try the baseband fix posted in the general section, along with owain's baseband fix on his cm9 rom post.
Oh, and search these threads, I'm sure their are plenty of possible resolutions within them... lol. Its probably not the greatest idea to start a topic on the defense if you want a warm reply.

Its because HFS ROM is compatible with the new baseband 21y so you can ether update to march 2012 BB or flash this on top of the ROM http://db.tt/wr9xYGlh to make hfp compatible with the older basebands

Problem solved
took both mine and my wifes g2x back to 2.3.4 stock. ran the updated baseband on both but for some reason her's still isn't making/receiving calls. also her baseband is showing jul 15 2011.
i did this to hers last night and didn't bother checking it. now shes on a 8 hour road trip with our 2 girls and has no phone.
i also tried the lg support tool but the phone has a jacked up charger port and would never connect to my computer.
If she has the July 2011 baseband try putting the 2.3.3 ROM on it or if she still has CWM installed flash this on her 2.3.4 ROM and see if it fixes it http://db.tt/abISGgzB

thanks xbkkx
If she's still on the 2011 baseband then any cyanogenmod rom should work as well... her phone wont work because she has a v21e baseband and is running a v21y rom.
This has been the cause of alot of confusion on the forums the last couple months.
Hope it works out.

I'm not positive that is entirely correct, I haven't been around here much but last time I checked that latest CM nightlys only work with the latest 21y baseband.
she's on stock 2.3.4. lets not worry about custom roms cause there is no way im talking her through downloading and installing a rom
what i don't get is i used the same zip file to do both of ours. after doing the exact same thing on both i ran getril and mine passed but heres did not. mine is good with 21y and her's prompted for 21e.
is it just a simple fix of her d/l'ing 21y through getril?

Like I said before she needs a v21e based rom not a v21y based rom.
And no all new cm aren't only for the new baseband.
Just because its a custom rom doesn't mean its any more complex or unstable, in fact with this garbage device the custom roms are more stable than the stock ones as far as I'm concerned.

but here's the weird part. when she goes into "about phone" it has the july 2011 bb, but when she goes into getril its showing the march 2012 bb
She needs to go with the 21e then. Get ril is wrong, but she needs to go with what about phone states.

yeah 21e isn't working either.
this is about retarded that we are both on the same rom, but mine runs 21y fine and her's won't run 21y or 21e.
guess i'll have to have her install a rom to get up and running.
is there one out there that has gps, mms, and video all working with little to no extra files?

Actually you have that backwards.
The newbaseband fix is for phones on the March 2012 baseband. He is on the July baseband so the fix does not apply to him.
Only the 2.3.4 version ROMs run new baseband without fix. No CM7/9/10 ROM supports March 2012 baseband without fix, than it breaks BT calling.
