I upgraded 2.3.5 but HATED it, so I decided to flash back 2.2.1. The problem now is that I get no service at all. I tried dialing *228, but it said I needed to turn off airplane mode to make a call (airplane mode was not on). Can anyone help me get my service back? If any extra info is needed, please let me know.

Well, I've been searching around and it seems as if I need the radio file for EE19. So far, every download link I've found is 404. Does anyone have that file?
EDIT: I had bricked my phone, but I figured out how to un-brick it. Still need that radio file and the method for installing it if anyone has it.
Nevermind, I got it working. I don't know for sure what did it, as I did pretty much the same thing over and over every time I bricked it, but one time I just happened to get service.
Here's what I did to get service:
1. Bricked my phone accidentally
2. Flashed DI14 using ODIN v1.83 (Make sure you select it from the PDA button)
3. Restarted phone, made sure it worked.
4. Turned off phone and flashed EE19 using ODIN (again, make sure you select it from the PDA button)
5. Turned phone on, and it had network access for no reason.
I had done this exact same thing a few times before, but I didn't have network access until the last time. I don't know why it worked, I just know it did. If anyone else is having the same problem, I hope this works for you, but no promises.
Also, if you do end up bricking your phone, the best way to get it to work again is to use ODIN to flash DI14, turn on the phone, then remove battery and flash EE19. Then you can upgrade from there.

Okay, so I read and read, searched and searched. So far I'm pretty stuck.
I did a ton of research before taking my LG P500h, and flashing the ROM because I wasn't a fan of the Froyo android setup. Did everything properly, ran an nandroid backup, everything that I was told to do.
Rooted using Gingerbreak APK, custom backup using Amon_RA custom recovery. All done using the latest USB drivers LG updated me with.
I am currently with Koodo Mobile here in Canada. Pretty much an offspring of Telus Mobile. Currently I am running Cyanogen Mod 7 the 6.5.7 beta build, and the phone is not bricked, or giving me any errors or hassle.
The problem is that I cannot use the 3G network or use the Koodo network. It only defaults to Telus towers. No android market showing up anywhere either. From what I've found on here, there doesn't seem to be a bugfix solution to this, and no settings I've been able to change on the phone has helped my situation. Maybe I missed something.
So, I decided to take it back to where I began, back to Froyo 2.2.1 . This is where it all went wrong. Tried going through the Nandroid backup and restoring that, I was given an " Error : run 'nandroid-mobile.sh restore' via adb! " . Okay, I'm not exactly a Java programmer so I'm a little intimidated. I do however have Android SDK going on my laptop.
Some more searching revealed the KDZ_FW_UPD.exe flashing method. I got the right KDZ file for my Koodo phone, V10V_00.kdz and began the process. Everything checks out, good to go, started update. Wait, phone not found? WTF! My laptop recognizes it, says my phone is connected and working. No problems here, just can't find it? UGH.
So, I need someone to either give me info on getting it to flash the kdz, or get Cyanogen Mod 7 working properly on my device.
Please help, I'll fully admit I'm a noob to this, and not an expert programmer either. But, I know computers and I fully understand what I have done so far to my phone. Just not enough to fix it.
Okay, I have gotten some things working on my phone. I think I am settling into Cyanogen Mod nicely. I missed the Google apps flash zip so I have my market and stuff. Its a shame the data does not work though. Oh well I will keep updating as it gets developed.
Sent from my LG-P500 using XDA App
GOT IT! finally...
Finally got my phone recovered to OEM specs. I had to restore my computer back to before I installed all my drivers and reinstalled all my USB drivers from there. Phone connected to USB properly, ran the KDZ updater, and it sucessfully installed the V10V kdz. All is well.
finally good luck.. enjoy androiding..
When you flashed the cyanogen mod rom what program did you use to flash the phone? And how did you make a rom backup? When you reflashed the stock rom did it still have all the original bloatware?
LG Optimus P500h TELUS became dead during Upgrading
Hi everybody!
I have LG Optimus P500h Telus. I purchased from Kijiji. I don't have any papers or documents for that so i cannot claim its warranty.
I was trying to upgrade its version during upgrading my device was stuck so I disconnected and plugged out its battery and inserted again. When i tried to turn it on. It never turned on again. It never ever appeared emergency mode again. I tried for several times by pushing home, power, and volume up and down buttons, and escape buttons. Now its just like dead. It never showed any sign of life. If anybody have any idea what happened with it and how I can recover or where I should take this one for repairs. I am in toronto, canada.
Your help and suggestions will be appreciated.
HELP!

Hey im new to rooting, and flashing/installing ROMs. So what happened was i rooted my infuse, installed clockworkmod, and then flashed miui. kinda. it bricked my phone. Luckily i unbricked it with GTG ultimate unbrick thanks to this site. Now my sim card isnt being read, and vibrates non stop. id say 5-10 times a min with screen off it doesnt matter. It was working fine with clockworkmod and everything before i bricked it. What do i do? I even tried the paper behind the sim trick. and no it not on airplane more.my phone doesnt even tell me my baseband, network, phone number any more.

and follow the instructions after downloading the correct zip file, i'd suggest the one with root and 3e modded recovery (so you can go back to flashing rom if you like), and it'll bring you back to stock plus root and with modded recovery, if you dont want to try flashing again then use the 100% stock download, and if you have any questions just let me know, i check this site nearly 24/7
Edit: i would also seggest that if the first time you attempt this it doesn't start up with the first use wizzard then go over and back up all you want to keep and set it to factorey default via settings and format the "usb storage" or internal sdcard, and then try it again
Okay so i got my phone (US Cellular Samsung Galaxy S Mesmerize SCH-I500) from ebay and it came with gb 2.3.4 originally and i updated to 2.3.5 then later on to 2.3.6. After doing some homework i want to get back to froyo 2.2.2 but i cant!! I tried to flash back to EE19 via odin and it bricked my phone. Then tried flashing back to EC10 and it worked but what happens is it has no signal whatsoever (baseband is uknown/no phone number) pretty much everything is unknown except the build number/firmware version :crying: I just don't get what i'm doing wrong here guys. Every time i try to make the *228 phone call to activate it, it says phone is in airplane mode go to settings to turn it off to enable connections but it's not in airplane mode!!! I factory reset it took out the battery but nothing works!! Although i was able to flash back to 2.3.4 via odin and root it. But still i want to go back to froyo :/ Please someone help me get back to a working froyo :crying: I would so appreciate this if anyone can look into this for me for i am fairly new to android but i'm getting the hang of it If you figure this issue out get a hold of me anyway you can thanks everyone!!!
Hi Guys,
Can I get some help with the following please:
Issues: When power on my Xoom(MZ601), I get the following error "Tablet is not provisioned. Please insert valid SIM card and reboot"
Steps taken to troubleshoot
1. Restore to factory settings and when reboot, I will get the above error. I wont be able to get into the tablet with that error.
2. Install custom rom - Will be able to get into the device but does not have any signal be it 2G/3G. Only can use wifi. When try to set the APN, nothing will happen.
I am suspecting I messed with the baseband version and causes this issue. I am currently on baseband 07P. I am trying to a way to fully restore back the device to factory settings include the baseband itself to see if this will fix the issue.
Is there anyway I can get a copy of the baseband N_01.100.05P file so I can try?
Thank you very much for any form of help.
Hi,
I never saw such a problem, but if the problem is really the baseband I think you can try restoring to 100% stock (find how to do it on our FAQ), then you update until the latest version in your country, then you root again (you can find it on the FAQ again), and then give me a shout to know what happens
Good luck!

Thanks for your reply!.
I have tried what you've suggested where I restore it to full stock but end up just getting the same error message. I'm using this package (MZ601_H.6.1-38-9_Other_International_Retail)
I even tried to restore it to (MZ601_H.6.1-38-1_Retail_Europe) whereby it actually allows me to setup my tablet and I'm able to get into the device finally which was a good sign BUT, I guess Europe spec's doesn't support my telco's , therefore again, I did not manage to fix the issue.
The same sim, if it were to insert to any of my other devices, it will just work fine.
And when I was doing the europe package, the baseband change to some older ones at first, then as I upgrade it with the stock patches, in the end it went back to 07P again!!!!
Is there any way I can find the baseband 05P files so I can try to flash it back and see if it works? I strongly believe I've messed up with the baseband file whereby now my device cannot find signal.
If there's anymore posibble area that you think I've posibbly messed up, please let me know. I have played with the device long enough but this time I'm really stucked. .
Appreciate your big help!
Somehow I ****ed up and now my phone cannot receive cellular signal at all. In about phone, IEMI number is unknown and in SIM card info, everything is unknown. What I did was this.
1. Flash CSC Selector on my existing ROM selecting ATT CSC. Everything was fine (aside from no voice/wi-fi calling)
2. Wanted to update to latest stock PDA/radio/bootloader so I did (through Odin.) Everything still good.
THIS IS WHERE **** HIT THE FAN
3. Flashed TWRP.
4. Formated data, flashed CSC selector selecting ATT, flashed Makisk, flash Makisk-PHH rot.
After that, no cellular signal at all.
Can someone help please? I really need this phone for work and if I can't get it working tonight, I'm going to have to go to AT&T store and ask for the cheapest phone they got until I can get this fixed...
BTW I already tried re-flashing everything to stock through Odin and it did not help.
