Can I update to new baseband while on Eagles blood Aosp 4.0.4? - T-Mobile LG G2x

I want the new baseband for the improvements.

No, you have to go back to stock to update BB unfortunately. This is what I did, worked perfect.

So revert to stock and then download new baseband, then I can just restore what I have now?

Ya, you have to re nvflash CWM recovery again tho because when you update you lose root. And you might need to flash the BB fix in owains thread for calling to work properly, or else you just hear a popping noise on a call. Just flash it right after you restore your backup.

How do you flash these leaks, im going to use odin for it but just a little direction would be highly appreciated. I've been flashing and rooting samsungs but have never tried a leak. Also, am I able to flash gummy charge back over this if needed and the radio still remain?

Gonna kang the radio out of this and run GC2.0 FE until it gets remixed.
Also the whole flash modem deal I don't understand either

Thanks a lot. I understand how to flash the leak basically like a rom via odin. But im still not understanding modems? The link posted here for the ep1w is rom and radio combo?
Sent from my SCH-I510 using XDA App
Maybe I do understand, flash the leak and boot it then flash the modem correct? I don't care for ext4 or all that I just want the latest gingerbread and radio. Modem =radio? When I flash the modem thru odin do I put it in the pit or pda?

If you lost your IMEI on stock GB and do not have a backup - you have a problem. If you made a nandroid backup when your IMEI was good - you are good. If you flashed one of the newer GB custom ROM's that used the Aroma Installer - you might have a back up.

Can you provide a little more information? Did you do anything before your phone lost its IMEI number (e.g., upgrade from Froyo to GB using Kies Mini)? That will help the people here hopefully help you.

Then take it to T-Mobile. Flash bhundven's KJ6 stock one-click in the second link of my signature before you take it in so you will be unrooted and on complete stock.

[Q] Updating Baseband?

I'm running the July 2011 baseband right now with Eaglesblood ICS and I want to update to the March 2012 baseband. Just to review the steps before I actually proceed to doing it.
From my understanding and research so far, first, I need to restore my phone to a stock version, then update it via LG update tool, then root it, then install clockworkmod and then I could install the ROM I want, is this wrong?
Nope, that seems correct, that's how I did it.

So, just to be completely clear... the Recovery needs to be back to stock before using the LG update tool as well?

If I lost my imei

I want to flash custom roms but I don't want to be that guy to lose his imei. Now question is. If I backup my stock rom via cwm and flash a rom and get unlucky and lose my imei and then just restore my stock backup will I be okay?

easiest is to just flash synergy. it backs it up for you without doing anything and, in my opinion, an awesome rom to try first anyways
I don't believe restoring your nandroid will fix your imei. You should backup using qpst and also with the flashable zip that synergy has now implemented to be safe
synergy made a script you can flash in cwm to back it up but it's not proven to restore yet since no one has had to

What if! If we always waited for what if we would get no where. Take your chances live life to fullest and just have fun! Take all the precautions and take your licks as they come. This is strong commuity and there is always help here. So go out there and flash some roms and enjoy.

Isn't there a way to also back up using terminal emulator right on your device? I believe the file gets back up right on your SD card and then you can restore from there....

That backs up your EFS partition, block or what ever you want to call it. Restoring that will allow you to get data back but you will always be roaming. I have backed up my EFS, backed up using QPST and did the manual way of backing up Synergy style. You can never be too safe. Synergy is a nice rom but if you don't want to flash it there is directions on how to pull the info that the Synergy script does.

Thanks for the info.
So if you just root and unlock there is nothing to worry about with this I assume? Also, TW ICS Roms should be safe? Is it just when flashing an JB ROM this issue can arise?
Just rooting and unlocking you should be fine. Flashing any ROM has the possibility of losing your IMEI but it seems more prevalent on AOSP ROMs.

Moral of the story is even if you back up your imei your probably gonna be stuck on roaming forever.

So what's the point of backing it up if you lose it and restore it you are still stuck with a roaming device. And not functioning how it should be stock.

I think it shows an R for roaming but you are actually not roaming. So your device supposedly is working, just has a graphical glitch. At least the device works I guess but still sucks and would send back for another one anyway.
Wonder why if this gets screwed they make it impossible to recover from. Even if you bring it to Verizon they can't do anything about it?
If this happens and you have insurance. You 'lost your phone' and get a new one haha

Flashing from ics back to gingerbread in cwm

I am trying to revert from an ics rom to a gingerbread rom via cwm. Is there anything special I have to do?
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda premium
Assuming your cwm is up to date just wipe cache and system then flash. But ALWAYS remember to make a backup first.
On a side note, ever use twrp?

Ummm, its a little more complicated than Flashing.Lol
You are reverting system files and such. Grab you a STOCK image from Sammobile than flash in Odin following the steps outlined in konanes thread in the dev section. Don't ever flash backwards between versions of android in cwm, you'll soft brick your phone. Bad advice ^^^^dude
