Rom Manager says 2.3.3 V20d is old baseband

I am stuck in a strange problem. I have LG P500 which i have rooted with superoneclick and it is rooted now. I have 2.3.3 V20d (India) which i upgraded a year back.
Now the problem is that according to everyone mine is a new baseband but when i use Rom Manger to install custom recovery it shows my phone but in brackets it says 'old BB'..There were just two options,one was my phone and the other to click the box down if my device is not shown in the above list. I am stuck as can't find any solution and i am a newbie.I did ask some senior members and contributors/devs and waiting for the help,so i thought i will post it here also in case someone has faced this problem before.
Screen capture attached as well.....Just do not know where to go from here.Thanks a lot
MORE INFO: I just downloaded XDA ASSISTANT app to check and in software section it mentions about baseband also. The reading is: V07u-000-000 (MAR-23-2009). Can't say if it is of any help

and yes that is your phone lg p500 old bb, it doesn't matter, RomManager doesn't discover your phone, it is just a list that you have to choose
from

Are you sure?

Are you sure it doesn't matter? But why would Rom Manager mention that? That means it is misleading the user and the user can think esp a newbie that his is a old baseband therefore he will not go with the new baseband and land in trouble.

More Info In Case It Is Helpful

My advice: don't use Rom Manager to install a custom recovery (or even a Rom); there have been many reports of people bricking their devices that way. A safer way of installing a recovery would be to use LGMDP or adb/fastboot -- instructions should be in a sticky somewhere; I can't search for it at the moment since I'm on mobile. Anyway, good luck.
Edit: Corrected typo -- it's LGMDP.

Well, I know that I spent a few days reading the sticky threads before I rooted my phone, but even then I managed to softbrick it for a couple of days (though it was sort of my fault, since I was using Linux at the time and all the instructions were for Windows, so I had to improvise). You shouldn't need to read every thread, though -- just the stickies should do.
Anyway, regarding Rom Manager, there's a warning in this thread (post #2) not to use it to install a recovery since the CWM version isn't compatible with our devices. As for a recovery you should use, I strongly recommend AmonRa 3.0.6 for a stable and bugfree recovery.
Edit: Just FYI, I installed my recovery using ADB and fastboot. It was quick and easy, the hardest part was installing the LG drivers and ADB (via installing the Android SDK).

I installed my first time recovery by RomManager on O1 3 years ago, I cannot realy remember how was it but it worked, but first go to settings, apps development(or something, you are on GB) and check ANDROID DEBUGGING, now use this tool from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1827723 all credits to shinobisoft
you can find recovery's here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1523050 this are flashable zips

RomManager doesn't suport anymore old phones like O1, that's why it appears with old bb, anyway, allot of ppl flash first time recovery with RomManager, and because it is first time, there must be some fails, not all made it first time, and RomManager is to blame ?? no, worked for me, worked for milions and for a few thousants didn't, and it depends by allot of things but in most cases the people are to blame

No, don't use ROM Manager. 3 years ago when @grigtm used it, it was fine. These days, however, the CWM version in ROM Manager is incompatible with our device. You will risk bricking your phone if you use ROM Manager. Personally, I advise against it.
As for the Android Flash Recovery program that was linked earlier, I haven't used it personally, but it seems easy enough to use. Just
1. Download Android Flash Recovery
2. Install the LG drivers (it's packaged with the program in a subfolder called "USB")
3. Enable USB debugging on your phone (Settings > Applications > Development > check USB debugging)
4. Start your phone in Fastboot Mode.
5. Connect your phone to the PC.
6. Start Android Flash Recovery and follow the instructions.

Confused

This is the first step after rooting.Ok
Fastboot mode is Home + Power i just have to do that? Like in rom manager we could do backup of stock can we do all that also with this?
Actually i read at two places how to go step by step,when to backup,going into recovery and wiping & reset the phone then again into recovery and navigate to the zip file of the rom and extract.But i do not know if it is same with Android flash recovery.

New Words For Me...........OMG why i came here hehehe

There is absolutely no need to learn all of the language, especially when you're just starting out. It's enough in the beginning to just follow instructions, and only go into the details of the Android environment later as you gain more experience. No one becomes an expert overnight, after all.
As for the terms I used... FYI simply means "for your information", nothing to do with Android at all. ADB is the Android Debug Bridge, and like the name implies, it's like the "bridge" that connects your PC to your phone. Any desktop-based program or tweaking tool that communicates with your phone most likely uses ADB (such as SuperOneClick, which you used previously). Fastboot is one of the debugging modes available on the P500. There's no need to concern yourself with exactly what it does (and explaining it in detail is beyond the scope of this post); you simply need to know how to enter that mode when the instructions call for it. Basically, what I'm saying is that you don't need to understand things in detail, you just need to follow instructions. All the instructions you need are in the stickies; for now, ignore anything else that's not there (it'll only confuse you).
The LG Mobile United driver should work. If it doesn't simply install the other drivers.

Thanks alot for the concern

I really appreciate your concern for the safety of my phone.Thanks a lot.
Actually i was to read and follow the instruction as you told but since yesterday i was having headache coz of this and it was severe this morning and still can't open one eye heheehe Anyway i went with the Rom Manager coz of this even though it showed my phone as old BB.It was flashed in less than a minute.Then i switchd off the phone to enter into recovery by holding down Home Button + Volume Down + Power Button(button to switch off) but phone just reboots normally,no recovery set up. The thread i am following for instructions at XDA's How to's says i should not boot into recovery from thr rom manager and use only the buttons combination. But it is not happening,can you help in this?
Thanks again

[Completed] Unknown network error on downloading file

i have been looking for the repair/backup of my root on my Cherry Mobile Blaze 2.0 cause i accidentally full unrooted it using SuperSU application, and then i found this site. and i feel so lucky that it has the most normal/simple tutorial on how to root my device again . and when i download the file about 400++mb, it only says Unknown Network Error, and i tried it for about 4 times. the picture is attached on this thread.
Note : my network is all well, honestly i just downloaded other file from google drive too, and everything is perfect.. so i thnk its not the net.
This is what i want to download .. (forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2746658) <-- remove parenthesis
PLEASE HELP ME... I NEED TO DOWNLOAD IT AND ROOT MY PHONE AGAIN..
FOLLOW-UP QUESTION
is it possible to reroot my phone from this procedure.

Well even if you've lost root on your current ROM, that doesn't matter as long as you have a custom recovery like CWM. If you know how then just flash that ROM, but being as you have no device specific forum you should post your question in the thread you linked me.
If you didn't understand any of that, then follow this guide HERE. Good luck.

the one you link to me is for CM Flame 2.0, my unit is Blaze 2.0, is that the same ?
im sorry for being noob but i dont know have any familiarity on the term ur giving me . you mean if i have my CWM on my Recovery mode .. i can just click that and then *bang* im rooted again with my system being reset ?
Thanks for your time and effort on helping me ! i'll expect a reply. TY

The zip is just a generic superSU update zip. It sounds like you have a recovery in which to flash the superSU zip anyway, so yes you may just be able to follow that guide. It won't break anything if it doesn't work though. If you need any further help then you should post in the Android Q&A section. Good luck

sir, i just found out that i have what u called CWM in recovery mode. does it help.

I can't give you technical help (read the 2 stickies), although I'll answer you once and say yes it helps: I highly recommend you read up on stuff abour custom recoveries, kernels, etc. To gain better understanding. I've given you a guide to follow HERE and directed you to the correct place to post further questions HERE. If you are still in doubt despite reading carefully through the first link then you should post in the second link where there are many more helpful members who may even have experience with your exact device.

[Q] Could someone point me in the right direction please

Good day,
I have a tf101 with stock rom (4.0.3)... I recently purchased a Nexus 9, so I figured it was time to start playing with my tf101. Would someone have a link that shows a step by step *How to* to update from stock 4.0.3 to stable KatKiss 4.4.4. I've never done any of this so I need some guidance, if a Youtube video exist that show what to do from start to end I would appreciate the link, otherwise a detailed how to with all related pages would be great.
Thank you in advance for your help,
Albatorak

When I have installed this easyFlasher and put my device (definitely TF101, thanks for pointing out!!!) int APX mode I can root from where? Let's assume I am in this TWRP and want to continue with KATKISS Lollipop, do I need to root first? or ROM (meaning the KATKISS lollipop?) and then SuperSU
is SuperSU from Timduru going to be enough to root in the order shown by him?

After flashing the recovery, boot into it (power+vol.down until a screen shows to choose vol.up for recovery.)
If everything went right, you should be greeted by twrp.
Now go to the KatKiss - Lollipop thread, download the ROM and Gapps. Get the latest supersu.
Read installation instructions carefully.
Short version:
Put all three .zip on sdcard. Boot twrp.
Wipe dalvik, cache and system . FORMAT data (important if upgrading to lollipop. A wipe won't do).
install katkiss then gapps and last install supersu. Now reboot.
The supersu.zip is always the last to flash, because it installs the su binary and the helper-app into the presently installed ROM.

This is indeed correct in most cases, but Tim explicitly states that supersu should be flashed before Gapps on Katkiss Lollipop:

EasyFlasher will both let you put your device into APX mode and flash recovery/acquire root, but you don't really need root for flashing recovery or ROMs.

Yeah, I trust timduru, he is an excellent developer. Although I think he is trying to make a point here, so he can give reliable support. In the KitKat thread there where a lot of stupid "doesn't work" posts, just because people forgot to install gapps. From a technical point of view it doesn't matter which comes first, as long as it is done. Quiet frankly, if the gapps would change something that superu did, that would be really strange.

Thank you all!! So, today is THE Day when I shall try... and how do you add LIKE in tapatalk? i can't see this option. I sooooo wanted to like all your helpful hints and instructions!!!

I started with easy flasher but it only flashes TWRP2.2 something, so a very early version ;( and TIMDURU advises to use much higher version like 2.8 something for his Lollipop
How do I put this one on my Asus?
Thank you in advance!!!
I decided to give it a try, put the 2.8 sth version in the internal memory, went to TWRP, pressed install, found this 2.8 sth and slid for flashing... now I am going to check the version... if it worked (fingers crossed) I shall continue with the rest
the task went smoothly, I started working on KatKiss,
I am sooooo shocked how powerful this thing is now!!! THANK YOU ALL!!!

Congratulations on your "new" tablet

and someting went sooo wrong and I have no idea what to do now
Yesterday my device was all fine and fully fincional, I watched sth on it, played some radio online and then wanted to checksomething on the internet
My device froze, the screen was unresponsive, the back key on the keyboard as well
I pressed and held power and it returned
I decided to check this net thing again but this time it didn't return, it showed something like "... unable to encrypt" or encryption unable to"... and I could only press one thing, OK, so I did
the device froze on ee pad screen
I tried power volume down, blue screen from twrp appeared and it got stuck
I have no idea what to do now???
if anyone can help me, please PLEASE write step by step including things like connect youf TF101 to our PC, because i am the layman of all laymen in the world...
thank you in advance for any help
as for now the device is charging because I remember that there was very low energy level in tablet and above 90 % in keyboard.

After analysing few posts I came to conclusion that my device is bricked. How that happened I have no idea but I decided to un-brick it with easy-flasher and it worked so I repeated steps from previous posts but with version 17 and now I can see KatKiss sweet doggie
and
Android is updating
let's connect with WIFI and life should be good again

I'm currently uploading a new version "omni-4.4.4-20141130-1704+0100-xxx-HOMEMADE.zip" for all devices.
I just tested it on my wingray and all looks good.
Wingray is already online. The other will follow in the next hours.
This will probably be the last version for omni-4.4.4 as the new development focus will be on getting lollipop running.

Long time Lurker, new to rooting my Xoom
Greetings and Merry Christmas, I am hoping for some assistance here to see if I am capable of doing this for my daughter. I have a Xoom here wife running 4.1.2. I want to give it to her as she is mad her brother got a nice new tablet and not her from Santa. I have been reading hundreds of pages trying to figure out how to get kit kat on here. I know i need to partition first, and the steps laid out on Omni's thread seem straight forward. The problem i am having is basically starting off.
I have a straight stock, unrooted Xoom wifi model. I understand everyone is busy so i apologize in advance, but dang a step by step from stock to kit kat would really help. I see a lot of threads saying what I need, however I have been unable to find anything going from a stock unrooted xoom. If anyone could give me a here dummy do this that would be great. Do I need to root first before i start the partition?
step 1) do this
step 2 do this
step 3 big part
step 4 omni instructions on kit kat

cannot unzip bigpart reflash
I've been trying for 2 days now to partion my zoom to load 4.4 on it. i have the twrp recovery on and every single time when I try to flas the twrp bigpart, i get a failed error no MD5 file found skipping md5 check error flashing zip. is the download link bad? is there a new or updated bigpart flash?

No sound / Auto rotate after 4.4.4 update
I just completed the stingray-4.4.4-cdma update on my Xoom. There is a bit of lag but most importantly I have no sound and the auto-rotate function no longer works. Any thoughts? (It is 4G capable but I am using WiFi only, not that it matters)

Thanks
Thanks for the info it helped me out

Touch Recovery Question...
I'd like to install OmniROM 4.4.4 on my XOOM (wingray). I understand the volume buttons used to navigate the Recovery menus, but the volume down button doesn't work on this tablet. Can I install a "touch" Recovery that completely circumvents the need for the volume buttons to navigate? The instructions at the beginning of this thread require "TWRP 2.6.3.0 R.A.H BigPart Edition Recovery" yet I cannot identify if this recovery is "touch".
Assistance, please?

Hi
Is this ROM still being updated or is the 30th Nov build the latest ?

The last update to OmniRom or CyanogenMod was November 30, 2014. I.m pretty sure that EOS is in the same boat.
I'm pretty sure that Schischu and the others are working on a Lollipop Rom based on a Tegra 2 Rom for Samsung Tab 3.
I can tell you this, when they release the new Rom it will be a good, stable Rom. Just be patient.
Though Lollipop appears to be nice, there are plenty of reasons why it's wise to wait. Many devices haven't got it yet, and there were a fair number of serious bugs in it.
In the magnums Android 4.4.4 works very well, with very few hiccups along the way I might add.

Bringing life back to my old Xoom. Now its actually usable again.

How can i get the navbar and statusbar allways on?

Hey guys, I have been trying to get this to work all day. I installed TWRP BigPart and am able to successful boot into it. Once in there I
1. Flash the BigPart TWRP from SD Card
2. Without rebooting go to "wipe" and select everything but SD. Then i get an error saying FAILED because it is unable to /mount data, cache and all the other ones selected.
I just can't seem to figure out what step i'm missing or doing wrong. Has anyone encountered this and figured it out?
If i just go ahead and flash, it gets stuck on the boot animation.

TWRP 2.6.3.0
I tried downloading TWRP that is shown on the first post, but when i click the file name it sends me to the page to download R.A.H._TWRPv2.6.3_BigPart_selinux.zip (6.51 MB). Is there anywhere else i can get the file from?

Do the repartition first & then go to the next thread & install the ROM & everything else it asks. I take it you already have Root?
This thread first - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2506997
Then here second - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2593414
Make sure you a 100% back up anything you want to keep first via a pc or onto a sd card cause it will wipe your whole system!..... (But not anything on your SD card!!!!) Follow the instructions from start to finish & your be fine mate
(Put all downloads your gonna install on your SD card I put them on system & SD to make sure of no mistakes! & make sure you have a good battery level as per usual when flashing.)
Hope this helps :good:

No it is not rooted, does it need to be???

Oh yes it a 100% has to be rooted!!!! If you still want to make the jump follow the guides in the Xoom forum's..... But make sure you always have at least more than 50% of battery power (100 or just under is recommend though) & do not skip any steps or your Xoom tablet will or could become a door stop! The process is safe but I would say this as some advice, read then read again & before you root or flash your rom (READ AGAIN TO BE SAFE). But after you get going your be fine, there's plenty of very experienced Devs in this forum who know there stuff. Good luck mate & hopefully you will be joining us in the world of Rooted devices in XDA very soon

Just follow the steps & make sure you are using the correct root or rom for your device & your be fine

Flash the apropriate bootloader. The HHZ12h bootloader is found in the stock LMY48B build. Get it here: https://developers.google.com/android/images
Flash it with the following command:
Code:
fastboot flash bootloader bootloader.img

Thanks for the response I will try that before doing that I already wiped out my os in order to install that rom and i haven't created any backup ...so it is safe to do without os or i have to install any os first. Previously i was having marshmallow 6.0.1 if i want to flash it again than how.... thanks again

Yeah, I didn't cover that in my explanation, sorry. After flashing the new bootloader, DO NOT try to boot a ROM that the bootloader is not designed to handle. Since this is a Lollipop bootloader, Marshmellow shouldn't work and you shouldn't try to boot it.
The steps needed to install the ROM would be the following:
Wipe everything
Flash the bootloader
Install the new (pwn) ROM
So, if you want to go back to Marshmallow at any time, make sure that you have the latest bootloader which can be found in the latest build of the stock ROM for the Hammerhead going to the link in my previous reply and simply repeat the steps above.
Hope that helped you.

TTTTThankss a lot. i successfully installed pwn legacy edition one thing I have a doubt do u have any idea whats the difference between aopp and legacy product download on pwn site?

No problem, glad I helped!
Well, only looking at the dates, I can see that the experimental product line is 5 days newer than the archive one. As for the specific differences, I really don't know since I've never used or followed this ROMs developement. If you are curious, you can always have a look at their Github repo and see what changes they made in that period.
As for finding the bootloader, I had a very short bootloader hunt myself the other day and found the easiest way to find the needed build is to use Google. In your specific case, just type in the search bar something like "nexus 5 HHZ12hr", and the first thing that pops out is the build number that I gave you.

Stable image release
There should be no need to find a difference between the stable and unstable image. The stable would be released as an update, so it depends on what you'd prefer to do. Have the latest AOPP OS at the cost of needing to flash it on a Debian based Linux environment, or stick with a different ordeal and just flash using adb and TWRP but need to update your phone right away
The stable image is available here:
android(dot)pwnieexpress(dot)com/legacy/hammerhead/
Unstable has been provided in links from others, good luck

Hi, someone know if this ROM continuous received updates from the pwn community? Thanks

Hello there, I was too waiting for the updates of this ROM. I crosschecked their website what i found new was they have switched fully to software side for building more ROM that can be compatible to other devices. I sent them mail earlier and they replied that "We have no intention of performing any further development of the mobile line, other than what has already been made available on the Wiki page at wiki.pwnieexpress.com".
