[information] BASEBAND

If you have flashed leaked baseband "LGP920AT-00-V18a-AMA-XXX-OCT-28-2011+0_CP.fls" it is recommended to flash new v21a.kdz rom(kdz include new European baseband) or wait for new baseband in *.fls file

sais who? And why?

What??
Beacuse if somebody waiting for Custom Rom (GB) and do not flash v21a.kdz , They stay with old baseband.

Well, i am just saying that because you forgot to mention that they lose root by doing so. The question is if it is easy enough to root it with the latest LG firmware since that is not automatically the case.
and also... noone has confirmed any change between the leaked baseband and the v21a. As far as i'm concerned it's just a matter of 0 and 1. Either u got signal or you don't. But correct me if im wrong

Baseband effects all radio services quality AFAIK. And there are some feedbacks that new baseband provides better signal strenght etc.

Can't somebody "rip" the new baseband and post it? My phone drops connection once in a while since flashing the leaked.

Would also like to know if we can just flash the baseband, Im quite happy with my ROM as it is with the leaked version but I would like to get this improved baseband.
Would that be possible to get the baseband from that?

Thank you for this file. I tried ICS, but I can't manage to receive voicemail notifications, which is pretty annoying. And the carrier name shows "Vid otron". It seems that the ICS notification bar font doesn't support "é" characters. It's kind of weird...

Hey, this is something i've been looking for. Could ya tell me which baseband it upgrades the phone to? Thanks

I was able to flash it to my t-mobile branded G2x and it updated the baseband
I forgot how snappy this thing was since I've started using ICS roms.

While on XP I've used that .kdz file with the flasher/updater from KDZ_FW_UPD_EN.7z to flash my secondary G2x, you also need to have the APX driver installed from One-Click-G2x-recovery-flasher-06-16.rar. I've also reverted back to the original recovery before attempting the kdz flash. Once done with it, I had the Videotron branded android and the baseband with OCT 24 2011 date. I tried a simple mobile sim card with it. After adding an APN, the data seemed to work. I was able to receive a call from my other phone. Then, I've flashed the CM recovery (as it was back to stock) using nvflash and then from the CM recovery I've flashed Owain's ICS on it.
I also have a copy of the files that .kdz unpacked (though I'm not sure if its complete).
That's about it.
Oh, yeah, before I had JUL 15 2011 baseband after the GB upgrade.
Also take a look at this thread... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1180331
To use the KDZ_FW_UPD you need to disconnect the phone from usb, remove the battery, hold the Vol down button while plugging-in the USB cable. This will force the S/W Update screen on the phone, and the tool will work.
I also reflashed V21E_00.01.kdz with that KDZ_FW_UPD tool and the baseband went back to JUL 15 2011.
Awesome!

Nice. Gonna have to dig through this.

Just to simplify things, the thread I've pointe to has all the tools/drivers. But it is a bit murky about the flashing process.
As long as you are on the stock recovery, it should be possible to just remove the battery, unplug the usb, push and hold Vol down and plug back the usb. At that point the S/W Upgrade screen should show up and KDZ_FW_UPD tool should be able to pick up your phone and apply the .kdz

Sweet hopefully it place nice with T-Mobile apn's... will probably give this a go on Sunday.

Before flashing do a backup with CWM. Then flash the Videotron KDZ file. After verifying if the SMS issue is fixed you can reflash CWM and then flash back the CWM backup to got back to T-Mobile Gingerbread. No reason to reflash a KDZ as this is the latest baseband available for the P999. I might do it to mine just to get the new baseband. I moved on to another phone due to band issues (needed 850 3G support for a carrier here in Thailand) but I have not gotten around to selling my G2X yet.

You saying to do a backup of any rom or flash back to 2.3.3 ota version? I assume any rom, which isn't an issue as I have about 10 on my PC lol...

Whatver your current rom is if you want to go back to your phone how it is. The sms problem is not in the rom so restoring the rom won't change anything if updating with the patched baseband fixes the issue. All you care about is getting the new baseband. Up to you if you want to restore current rom or flash something else.

Okay I figured that much... I don't really care about restoring so much cause I don't do any super customizations to my phone and only use 10ish applications and no games to worry about save points.

New Baseband. No Network. HELP!

Hello XDA!
So, I made the mistake of making an OTA upgrade to my Atrix 2 and this is where Im at.
Sys Version: 55.28.37.MB865.AsiaRetail.en.03
Android Version: 2.3.6
Baseband Version: 2012-03-28 12:22 Off.Bld LUD_EDISON_R1EP29_TO_422313_001_120328_120
I'm running on Vodafone India (Mumbai)
The Phone now no longer catches any network at some places in the city! It shuffles between Emergency Mode, No Network and the Red Slashed Circle.
Funny thing is, It was fine earlier & I do get network on other operators. And what's even more strange is that if i put my SIM in another phone. (SGS3) Im getting full network!
HELP!!!

i had the exact same problem, but with reboot issues too , i solved it by flashing ics zip, because it comes with its own radio.
i have at&t phone though

Been thru the same issue right from the time I bought my phone.
Vodafone Mumbai has Only 32k type of Sim cards (i know this cos ive directly asked them abt it at the vfne store) which arent compatible with the new update (55.28.37). So ur phone cant catch the network and m guessing ur phone is draining a lot of battery too.
I had to switch to Docomo to get a 64k Sim, which is compatible. (though im still using vfne in another phone )
the moto ppl have told me that ICS is gonna sort this issue, but im not too hopeful of that. So better u get another carrier and get that 64k Sim or don't update and wait for ICS. (u'll have to take ur phone to moto service centre to downgrade it)
I got a new Sim cos I was having problems with batt drain and also cos of the non compatible update.
Edit: I used to barely get 9 - 10hrs with the vfne Sim before the update and a 64k Sim sorted that issue too.

No need for root

New Update on the Problem
Firstly,
Thanks for all the help. You guys are awesome.
I realised that the Motorola Service Center was right next to where I work. So I Uncheesecaked, Unbootstrapped & Unrooted my phone and gave it to those guys to see what they do, exactly.
And in 15 minutes, they downgraded my phone to this version which works:
Sys Version: 55.1.27.MB865.AsiaRetail.en.03
Android Version: 2.3.6
Baseband Version: 2012-01-20 19:57 Off.Bld LUD_EDISON_R1E_PATCH_23_120120_1943
Build Number: 5.5.1-EDEM-27
Result: I have network everywhere now. Its working fine. So this is the baseband I need. But that smoothness which the 55.28.37 had is no longer there.
Nevertheless, I can start modding this phone a fresh now.
Needed to confirm one thing though. If i get myself into this problem again. Which radio from the droiddevelopers website should i flash?
519.2 MiB 63EF21A6DF3869329AB6B0A54CD74F8F Retail Asian <- which ArchMag3 recommended?
OR
517.3 MiB F452799D01461D307BD4F0593066B4CF Retail Asian <- or this one?

I had a Defy Plus before this one & Ive checked the Noob guide for the a2 but I wanted to know if flashing these zips via RSD Lite is the same easy procedure ? Is there some GUIDE that gives me a step by step?
Also, If im flashing just the radio, Fastboot flashing is the best way to go right?
And one more thing, Is anyone making a Baseband Switcher like they did with the defy? Or is it just not possible in this phones case?

Vodafone network problem after update
Hello,
i am also facing the similar problem after doing an update, i am from India (Mumbai) having 55.28.37.MB865.AsiaRetail.en.03
It would be great if you can explain the steps in more details, as i am confused if i have to unzip the file on computer or on phone, step by step explanation will be more helpful.
my another question was after doing this flash will the warranty be broken ? is this something similar to root the phone. i dont want to break my phone warranty as i have purchased recently just a month back.
Thanks for the help in advance. and awaiting to hear favourable response from you

Hey, If you're new to flashing stuff just head to one of the service centers and they'll roll it back in half an hour. Easy Peasy. In this way you don't have to worry about your warranty as well.
Though I had rooted my phone, i just unrooted it and took it to them and they couldn't realise that i had voided my warranty.
they'll bring it down to the 5.5.1-EDEM-27 firmware, which is available on the link thats provided in this chain.
Hope it works.

If you look under the the big Hellfire Sandwich v1.9. there is a download link for the old baseband if you dont want to take the leap to upgrading your baseband.
But if you want to update your baseband look in the general section you should be able to find what your looking for to upgrade your baseband. I'd post a link but i havnt got my 10 posts yet.

yeah I think im gonna upgrade the baseband from what I'm told baseband matters a lot. I take it I have to install a stock rom and in the process it will unroot my phone but I just root it back thanks man you been a great help.

I dont know if you want to use this guide, but this is the only way I could get the 21y firmware and march 2012 baseband on my wind mobile p999 phone.

New Baseband question (MARCH)

So I've been using G2x with July 15 baseband on canadian mobilicity network(wind variant of g2x)
and it's working pretty good except that MMS doesnt work
However if i want to use new ROMs (Singh UI..etc) I gotta have the new baseband for tmobile...
can I just install the baseband or would it have problem with mobilicity network?
or is it impossible for canadian g2x to get the new baseband update?

The baseband can't be installed separately with any of the P999 tools and don't use any P990 tools such as smartflash because it will brick your phone's partitions and baseband. The T-Mobile basebands work perfectly on WIND so they should work perfectly on Mobilicity too but you have to flash the .kdz file which will install the baseband, kernel, and ROM then you can install a different kernel and ROM which is compatible with the installed baseband.

No, you can't use CWM to flash the baseband, it won't do it. You must use either the LG updater which won't work for the WIND Optimus 2X because LG didn't supply any updates in Canada or the offline update method for the LG-P999/G2X which will work with a .kdz file.

Did you use the offline update? If you had, that wouldn't have happened because the offline update method uses an http server on your own computer to intercept all of the server communication to the official LG update server and enable updating of the phone which has any version of firmware running on it.

The newset baseband for G2X is 15-3-2012.

I flashed the new March 2012 baseband and now my gps doesn't work anymore. It stays stuck at "searching for gps signal." The thing is I don't remember what I was using before, the March 2012 or July 2011 baseband. I'm assuming July 2011 and the change could've caused this issue. However, shouldn't the new baseband be an improvement on GPS signal and whatnot? Anyways, looking forward to hearing some advice before I try to downgrade back to the March 2011 baseband.
