Network/Signal Issue - T-Mobile LG G2x

Friend says he tried to root his g2x, now it's running 2.2.2 (which is a verison of andriod i'm not familiar with) and he has no signal and is unable to connect to any wireless network.
Also, when i search for networks, it pops up with both tmobile and att, but, as far as i know, the phone is not network unlocked.
Any ideas or suggestions?

Is he running a p990 rom on a p999 or vise versa? That would cause some issues...
Pin it to Win it.

I know very little about this phone, what kernel and build should it be running stock?

He just has to make sure he's running the from for the right phone. If he's running a 2x rom on a g2x that can cause problems. Also might be a baseband issue? Not sure on that one as I never even bothered with 2.2.2 or don't know if they have 2.2.2 roms lol

Does his phone say T-Mobile on the top?

yes it's a tmobile lg p999, but i'm not sure which rom he's running. from the research i've done, it looks like his baseband has been changed from what it was running stock. but i'm not entirely sure how to reset the baseband, he already did a factory reset, but the baseband remains altered. are there any other threads where i can find out how to reset the baseband?

If this is too confusing I can send a picture or the settings screen.

That baseband is the March 2012 baseband. He needs to have 2.3.4 or another rom that supports the new baseband. Try loading up the newest cm7 and see what happens.

Look in the development forum and download the I897UCJF6 Odin One Click utility. This will bring your phone back to AT&T stock 2.1.
Also, when did ATT push Froyo?
I think he's mistaken it with JH7
<----- They sure do!
Watch flash back to stock using Odin and u will see the words firmware upgrade and as soon as it reboots look on settings about Phone and u see I'm telling the trhu u will see since u star setting up ur phone on google

This is a known issue.
Problem is with the baseband. It affects all known ROMs. If you want to make phone calls, you'll have to revert back to the older baseband, or go with stock 2.3.4 that was pushed.
nobody can fix that? may be just need cm or miui find out fix.

To those with the new baseband and with custom ROMs, have you tried to update your RIL using getRIL? https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.sibbor.getril&feature=nav_result#?t=W251bGwsMSwyLDNd

Even with matching RIL/Baseband it still does the same thing on a custom ROM...verified that yesterday when I manually pushed the RIL to my phone...after submitting the RIL to Rob so he can update his app...

[Q] Anyone how to fix calling issue with newly rooted phoen

I just rooted my phone and loaded eaglesblood 2.3.8 and now whenever i call all i hear is a clicking noise. I updated my baseband use getRIL and checked my sim card it works on other phones. What is weird is my 4g internet works and i can call using wi-fi calling but i just can't call anyone normally. My phone has essentially become a tablet.

GetRIL only updates your RIL, not your baseband. The only way to update baseband using either OTA update or LG tool/KDZ method. What is your current baseband (settings/about phone)?
It is a known issue with the latest baseband (11 March 2012), if you're on the this baseband you will only be able to use it with 2.3.4 ROM.

Currently only kwes1020 rom in dev section works with the March 2012 BB. Flash that.

V21e stock problems(ghost calls)(solved maybe)

I installed v21e rom through kdz method,which means that i have stock rom and v21e baseband. Something is draining my battery very quickly. Plus i have ghost calls. My girlfriend tried to call me but i didn't have any missed calls. Guess im going back to froyo. :-\ So sad.... i just got used to have flash in 3d capturing..... :-\ plus the 3d game converter....

In that case you have done something wrong - as those errors are not present on v21e

But what??? :-( I never installed Gingerbread before. This is my first time. I followed pandaballs tutorials to install v21e through kdz method,and everything was as it shoul'd be. Coul'd it be because i selected another country and language when installing gb? My phone is from Slovenia i think. I live in Serbia,but when i installed gb,i selected Italy,and english language.

Shouldn't be the issue. Try wiping data through stock recovery.
I'll try but i clearly doubt it will solve the gc issue. When i installed v21e i did a factory reset,then i rooted the device. Is it possible that rooting screwes up something?
Sent from my LG-P920 using XDA Premium App
I live in Bulgaria, also i make root with Megatron root!
Steel don't have GC with V21E!
Also my battery works more better with that V21E.
Do wipe partiton and other option wich you can make before root.
I thing only factory reset is not enough.
When you flash phonewith 21E version,before turn on your phone do all wipe option.
this scares me a lot, but for now no ghost call, sorry for my question, but you are sure about the version? 19-apr-2012? You download the rom from official lg site?

That's worrying. You are the first to report ghost calls with V21E. There were two more reports before yours but the first has flashed only the V21E baseband (not the complete rom) and the second was using a custom kernel instead of the stock 21E kernel.
However, I think that there is a possibility that the V21E was not installed correctly in your case because not only you have ghost calls but your battery drains very quickly. This could not have happened, especially when you came from Froyo as you said. All Gingerbread roms (even the ones that have the ghost calls problem) have much better battery life than any Froyo rom. And the V21E has even better battery life than the older Gingerbread roms.
Perhaps the .kdz file you downloaded got corrupted? Or you didn't wipe/ factory reset before and after upgrading to V21E? I suggest to download and install again the 21E following the procedure here.
That's very strange.
In my tests I've NOT been able to reproduce a single ghost call making something like 200 calls on 21E
I've only managed to preoduce some "ghost rings" : a single ring (just the first of the rings) wich hasn't been shown by the dialer app. (Not a big deal however)

[Q] hellfire sandwich rom

Hello,I searched all forums but cant find a answer to my issues,hopefully someone can help.
I flashed hellfire sandwich rom to my g2x Now my issues are
picture messaging dont work-I can send regular texts but not with pics nor can I receive them
I get process at android ,com has stopped and I click ok bit it keeps coming back until I reboot
the second one is my battery bar indicates a full charge but its been on for about 6 hours now-I did install battery recalibrate but it still does it
third is that my phone number says unknown and my voicemail number is also not known I have a feeling this is related to my mms erros too.
Thats about all please help.I did have cyanogenmod 7.1 installed before and was having the messaging issue then too.I did switch to another version of hellfire after that and everything was working great except my battery indicator had ? mark in it and the phone shut down and had a hard time rebooting.I used g2x scrubber before I installed the hellsandwich rom and followed directions to the t so I dunno whats wrong
Thanksfor any help,Steve
When you go into settings/about phone what baseband shows up?
m6600a-scautnz-2.0.972ot 1 [may 21 2012 16:00:00} TRULGE_08.09.02R_MDM
Were you originally on 2.3.4? I don't know if it will help or not but if so try flashing the new baseband fix zip file. Its a sticky I believe in the g2x general section. I know its meant to fix problems with calls but it couldn't hurt I guess.
Sent from my LG-P999 using xda app-developers app
yes I was on 2.3.4 I will give it a shot and let you know how it works out.
Thanks,Steve
No problem. I double checked, its stickied in the general section under “how to fix popping in calls" just download it to SD card and flash in cwm and reboot. Hope it helps!
Sent from my LG-P999 using xda app-developers app
well it was worth a try but no go,any other suggestions?
I honestly have no idea. I'm currently running an ICS rom (eaglesblood) and have none of those issues. However my voice mail had the same "no voice mail number" error. I'm assuming you're on t-mobile...if so, just put this number in for your voice mail and it will work properly:
+18056377243 This will definitely fix your voice mail...as for your SMS messages...hopefully justjackyl comes in here and can give you some better information
I think you should try reflashing your rom. Or try a different one. You have a lot of weird issues. When you go from gb to ics or vice versa are you wiping /system?
Good call twitch. Make sure you wipe /system under mounts and storage in CWM!

phone randomly shuts down on me getril still says ril/baseband dont match i tried switching ril's from the drop down list but nothing changes.
under baseband in getril it say recommended march baseband. Any suggestions?
Whats the model number on the label?
We are not quite sure how you have a may baseband, the P999 basebands carry June and March months. I believe June 15 2011 and the last was March 11 2012.
I keep wondering if your not using the Wind G2x model which is an O2x P990 branded as G2x or even using a P990 in general, which this than would be incorrect ROM and could definitely cause all these issues.
In you screenshot it will say P999 because the ROM build states that, not the phone.
Check your model number sticker please.
