[Q] Firmware issues... - General Questions and Answers

Wondering where I can find and download the proper baseband to get service from my carrier...
Running custom firmware and my cell service randomly drops out. I read I may need to flash a new baseband.
If so, where would I find that, and what exactly would I need to do to install it?
Thanks

[Q] Losing Service After Custom Rom-Milestone

Hey guys I have recently rooted my phone and after many hours and headache I have managed to do so. Onto the task of installing a custom rom (so far I have tried MIUI and Froyomod both found from the milestone development forum) I am losing service and haven't been able to do anything about it. If i perform a data wipe and restore a previous nandroid backup (which is basically stock)I get my service back and all is fine, as soon as a new rom is on there I have no service.
I understand you guys need the most amount of info possible to help me so here it goes. My phone is an unlocked A853 Milestone with bootloader version 90.74. I have downloaded the Telus SBF from (wont let me post link but if you search for milestone sbf in google its the second link). I downloaded the one that is under the 2.1 category, second one since it is mirrored. Is this where i went wrong? Because I now see another subcategory below that reads 2.1(Service version), but how could I have service when I go to stock and not after I flash a rom. I never lost service after flashing SBF before I went on to root and do custom rom. Btw I am on the Bell network but my research tells me Bell and Telus are on the same frequency bands and I see no bell SBF for the Milestone.
When I go back to stock and look under Settings>about phone>firmware configuration version it reads a code, I do not see this firmware configuration anywhere if I flash a custom rom. I have tried to manually set my apn but to no avail.
I have given all the info I know, if any more is required I will do my best to provide it. I really want to experiment with different roms but I obviously need to have service no matter what. Thanks for the help in advance.
Could this be a baseband/radio issue? Could a baseband issue cause absolutely no service or just poor reception? If anyone could lead me in the right direction or point out what they think the issue is, shoot, because I'm out of ideas. Thanks
Bump . What if i try to flash the telus firmware i have on stock which gives me service after installing a new rom? Are these roms in any way made for specific frequencies or service providers?
so I tried typing in *#*#4636#*#* and for signal strength it says -113 dBM 0 asu. This means I'm getting good signal and is not a radio issue correct? When I go to run ping test it says " Ping IpAddr: Fail: IP addr not reachable. Ping hostname is also unreachable, HTTP client test: Fail: IOException. I hate to be bumping this so many times but I'm quite new at this and I need some help

[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?

RefurbishedV10 fingerprint/security issues after upgrading from lollipop to MM

I've seen many threads about this issue originating because the apparent H900 model for some people turned out to be a different model somehow converted to look like this, and everyone had the exact same issues as me, namely
1. LG VPN has stopped working error
2. Fingerprint/security tab causes settings to crash
3. Attempting to uninstall apps causes instant soft reboot
Some folks mentioned fixing their phones by finding the actual model of their phone and flashing the correct firmware. But AFAIK, no flashing software allows flashing of a different model. And none of them was clear about the actual steps they did to fix it.
Since I'm on Marshmallow, I cannot root, and I cannot rollback to the firmware I had in my phone.
Can anyone please share how they fixed their phone or someone expert in the matter?
Warranty/Motherboard replacement are out of question for me.
Any help is appreciated.
Same here please somebody help.
Same, did you find a solution? :/
same problems
Same probleme... Any update for this?
I see on AT&T website they have been rolling out the software update ver. H900z in USA only?

Finally Found 1000% fix for all this type of issues. Security Menu to App Uninstall all-everything OK. Just need to flash an special modified firmware based on VS990 Hardware. The current Firmware version is Android 6.0.
NB: This is not for free and not for individual one. $150 will cost this type of firmware. So, this solution is for Service Personnel or Professional's only. Contact me for details on Skype or Gmail (rassel2k). Goodluck.
Too bad the price of the phone itself, 2nd hand (H900,H901,VS990,F600), is around $100 here.

Flashed stock firmware through Odin and now phone doesnt recognize my network

After flashing a stock android 7.0 firmware with Odin my phone boots up normally without any problems, however it doesnt detect my network.
The firmware I used was from argentina, which is not my country but uses the same 4g bands so i figured it wouldnt matter.
is there a way to fix this? or i just have to flash to my old firmware (which I totally forgot which one was it).
I would appreaciate any help, Im a novice when it comes to this stuff.
back to stock
After the root to the stock firmware, did you a factory reset?
Sometimes it will help after you put your phone back in stock firmware.

Call your provider and ask them to reprovision your device on their end. That helps often.
