[Q] Reversing Gingerbread Baseband Flash or Correct Baseband for my Provider

Good Morning,
After flashing the Gingerbread Baseband I no longer am able to register on the network for my provider.
The device is from Rogers but unlocked and being used on the Bell network.
After flashing I realized there may be a different baseband for me to use in Canada (just North of Toronto).
I require some help in locating a Gingerbread baseband that would work or provide me with instructions on how to return to the original baseband.
Any help is appreciated!
Thank you kindly,
- Audi2Audi

Did you set the APN manually? You have to do that.

Hello!
APN in Menu|Settings|Wireless & Networks|Mobile Networks|Access Point Names ?
I have set that to: pda.bell.ca
Is there other steps required though?
Thank you for the response!

apn settings is for internet. phone must tower of sim. may be flashing baseband again will soveit because i am tower getting for my country

If you're wanting to go back to stock froyo first you need to visit here to get your original rom... these will also flash the baseband back too
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1246678
or here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1155874
then you will need to follow this turtorial in order to flash the stock rom back on (go down to second post that one is in English )
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1244490
Although it is a possibility that the BB hasn't flashed correctly, might be worth trying it again... might also be worth trying a froyo rom to see if you get a signal then, because if you do you still have the froyo baseband on...

Thanks adixtra i always forget about the tutorial of yours

You can flash a .Bin File for Your P920 or P920H.

Ok, now this is getting bizarre hah.
I reflashed the baseband again and everything went normal as it did before.
This time I searched for networks and selected my provider. After about 5 minutes of the device trying to register on the network an error was received that said it was unable to register on this network.
However, when I got to my home screen I was registered on the network. I tested a voice call and it worked. I have tested data as well.
BUT! This is where it gets even more bizarre...The device cycles from 4 signal bars to 2 signal bars to none to 3G (from H) followed by not being registered on the network. Then a few minutes later (sometimes only after a reboot) it returns to 4 bars and begins the cycle again.
Has anyone seen anything like this before?
Thank you again for your help!

Good Evening,
Would you be able to upload the KDZ file from your update?
I am having problems with the LG Phone Recovery indicating that I have the most up to date software and halting the recovery process.
Thank you!
- Audi2Audi

Hello,
I flashed an earlier KDZ which allowed me to use the LG Update tool to restore my stock rom.
Thank you everyone for your help and advice.
- Audi2Audi.

it will tell you that but if you use recovery mode and it will download the file then you will have to unplug the phone from usb hold vol+ power then plug it back into the usb and it should download. like i said i used similiar method to flashing baseband

On my windows 7 not detect omap 4 and i can't flash baseband,what can i do?

Sim Card after flashing not detected

Hello people,
I've got a problem:
I've bought a Newman N2. Unfortunately I've updated the stock rom - and now I've got no more detection of my Sim card.
It has Firmware Newman_N2_00.22 - IMEI is also correct.
My Sim card works in another handy correct.
I don't know what to do - I've searched already here, but it didn't help me what I found.
Could it be something with the EFS Filesystem? Can I restore it somehow whitouth flashing?
I can't install the CWM. Didn't work for me. The fastboot doesn't work for some reason
Thanks in advance for your help!

There was an info on the newman forums about you must flash the phone without sim.
What if you try it with wipe before flash, and reflash then?

Didn't read that unfortunately... What can I do now?

Try to install the 00.20 FW, but wipe data, and wipe cache before it. And ofc without the SIM.
After it you can isntall the 00.22 FW. It is the latest.
00.20 http://pan.baidu.com/share/link?shareid=188071&uk=1143976775
00.22 http://pan.baidu.com/share/link?shareid=190980&uk=1143976775

Any luck? I found something. To go back to the stock FW you need to flash it via Windows.
"Warning: People who have the first Version of the Firmware ( Date 2012.12.13 ), they should first update to second version ( Date 2012.12.15 ) and then they can update to the last version ( Date 2013.01.12). Because you can get some problems with SIM."
Unfortunately only 32bit drivers included.

I read this too, was because of me this topic
I sent it to a friend, who will flash it with his box.

Finally flashed it to the basic firmware.
Also tried several other firmwares, resetting IMEI - also different sim cards.
We guess the SIM Slot should be broken. Does anybody know if we can order just the SIM Module Slot? Or it would be just the whole mainboard?

[Q] Zte v987 bricked, how to fix.

First of all, hello.
Second, let me explain the problem:
I accidentally soft - bricked my ZTE V987.
That would not be a problem if I didn't also lose my ROM backup.:crying:
What I did so far while trying to fix it:
1. Tried to re - install Bruno's CWM recovery through SP flash tool - was unable to. SP flash tool enable dram fail error.
2. Found out I needed a preloader.bin, found one that worked (have found few preloader.bin files for v987 but all failed to flash except one) - flashed that.
3. Tried Cwm again - success.
4. Instaled Bruno's 3.0 mod rom through CWM, success, but lost Baseband, IMEI, Serial Number, BT and WIFI MAC Address.
5. Tried installing zte v987 china stock 1.0.1 rom through cwm - success, have baseband, but no IMEI, no Serial Number, BT and WIFI MAC Address.
6. Found about sn write tool, used it to restore IMEI and WIFI MAC address - success, BT & SN - fail: SN says it is written yet it is always displayed as 0123456789ABCDEF, but BT MAC sn write tool always fails with BT DB write fail error.
So, from what I managed to figure out, I need either a full ROM Dump from a working ZTE 987, and a way to insert all these numbers back in, or any other way to fix my phone.
To anyone willing to help, thanks in advance, and if this thread is in wrong subforum I am very sorry.

V987 IMEI invalid
I have a very similar problem; V987 showing invalid IMEI numbers but WiFi, BT etc all working. SN shown as 123456789ABCDEF. Phone does not recognise the Engineering mode code or offer an option to enter it via Gravity box. I can't get the IMEI & SN Writer tool to recognise the phone.
I have another V987 with stock ROM - does anybody know how to dump the ROM so I can copy it to my other phone?
(The links to the stock ROM on Bruno's thread do not work)
Edit: Problem solved! I used MTK tools to make a NVRAM dump of the stock ROM then the Flash tool to copy the ROM to my old phone. The strange thing is that the phone remembered the correct IMEI and SN numbers. I now have two fully working V987's!

Hello! I have a question! How did you complete step 2? I still have my V987 bricked and I can't seem to find an appropriate preloader.bin to wake it up again. I know I'm not exactly helping you, but I would be so grateful if you can help me out with that! I have less than 5 hours with this new ZTE and I already messed it up

Help! Network error! No mobile network! Unknown phone number

Try flashing modem from this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-one/development/radio-updated-modem-radio-files-oxygen-t3072516
Or else download latest fastboot images of CMOS12.1 and extract it. Follow this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-one/general/ref-oneplus-one-modem-collection-t2858734 to flash it

Installing global rom to Xperia 5 AU

Is this will be ok?, because Xperia 5 have 128GB and AU version have 64GB.
anyone have tried it?

Please don't flash if yours is a different model as it may break your phone. Only of the same specs model.

when I hear the word AU,I think that you are from indonesia tercinta merdekalah katanya

Huh. Please don't attempt to do it. My Xperia 5 bricked after doing it. And since the phone had some USB issues, getting into flash mode again was very difficult and consumed around 2 hours fiddling with the volume keys. Because the red light just blinks every 2 seconds or so. No green light after connecting USB while pressing volume down. Finally when I got it in flash mode, flashed the SOV41 AU version which brought the device back to life.

No harm in trying it (in my experience). Just give it a try and if it (bricks) doesn't boot, force shut it down, put it in flash mode, and reflash the original ROM with NewFlasher, (Don't use FlashTool) and boom, back to working again.
Edit: why have I just replied to an almost 3 year old thread at 00:53 in the morning... Good damn it lol.

ROMs that I tried but failed :
SO-01M NTT DOCOMO JP - Signature error, not even flashed.
J8210 Customized UK - Bricked
901SO SoftBank JP - Bricked
All I was trying for to use 4G network as Jio Sim works only in 4G. Even though a toggle was available in the AU version to enable 4G, it didn't worked. It can't even connect to network by manually selecting. And 4636 method don't work.

Replace AU oem files with attached files. Flash with new flasher. Probably no AU messaging app after flash. so you need to install either google messages or use attached au original message app apk.

Great. It worked. Also bloatware removed. More like a Global ROM with VoLTE.
