hi!
i'm currently running froyo 2.2.2 rooted and with dookmatt's kernel. i want to upgrade to the official 2.3.3 rom and use franco's kernel. this is the part where i don't know what to do...i mean do i have to use kdz or update through lg pc suite? and also if i have to upgrade through lg pc suite do i have to restore nandroid backup?(i made one just after rooting to be sure )i know it's probably been answered in another thread but due to the really short time i spend at the computer i would really appreciate if someone told me what to do or at least gave me a link to a similar thread.
cheers!

hit thanks button if i helped you
I would like to know if I can upgrade to official 2.3 without a PC. Is there any way to flash zip file in recovery?

You need the new baseband. That cannot be done from recovery.
from what i understand the baseband is flashed when using kdz right?

Yes, you are right.
ok i've flashed the original 2.3.3, rooted and installed franco's kernel for gingerbread...all went well except for one thing... i connect to a wifi network...everything is ok but after 10-15 minutes wifi goes off by itself and in settings under wifi i get an Error status message(just where it says connecting, obtaining ip adress) and wifi cannot be reactivated unless i reboot the device. can this be fixed?
edit: never mind i've taken my time to browse the forum and discovered i'm not the only one with wifi error... thank god i don't have the black screen bug! now i'm anxiously waiting for franco's update on the kernel
Cool this post answered my question
First of all please forgive me that I had to create a new thread for things which are explained already plenty of times. the only thing happening is that all the things explained earlier, are not working in my case. Guys please help me. everything was running fine until I decided to switch to stock 2.3.3. I was unaware with this baseband thing. I switched to stock 2.3.3. I did not like it, so decided to roll back to cm7, I did, and here i am with no signal in my phone... I did flash the old baseband, but am still stuck with no signal... am in real trouble, and now if I again switch to stock 2.3.3, then also I dont get a network coverage at all. Please help me buddies
And yes one more thing, even if I flash back the old stock froyo, via kdz or lgmdp, I cant get the network coverage ... the guy at LG service center says there's some problem with the board ... but I dont think its the board problem, is there any way to diagnose this issue or am I *ucked?
No ,did I wipe Fatory reset in settings menus. If so you are.

What ROM are you running on, Their are a few ROMs that haven't fixed network issues, If you are using a iHO ROM then have you tried the Airplane Mode Fix?
right now I have flashed stock gingerbread. that 'v20g' one. but if u say, i will switch to another rom whichever u say... I tried stock froyo, mik's cm7, and void.# forever's cm7. none of those fixes the signal, I even tried the new baseband patch provided by mik, not working :'(
What phone do you have. Do you have an optimus v,you have to use a ROM for it.

Flash original rom and recovery and take phone to service center, if you have warranty phone will be repaired for free.

yes it is in warranty period, but still, they will take so many days... thats what service center guys do...
i bought x10 mini in february 2012. after some days i rooted the phone. and after some days it starts auto turn off while sim is inserted. and sometimes it restarts automatically. when charger is connected, there is no problem, but when disconnected, it shuts down immediately. and sometimes it turns off while sim is not inserted but the "on time period" is about 2/3 hours. but when sim is inserted, it turns off immediately just aftrer switched on the phone. and there is a battery draining problem too. sometimes, as example, 90% charge becomes 23% after autorestart. i send it to sony ericsson service centre, but nothing has improved. and now i can see the phone is not rooted. please please please help me !

If that so, you should contact your service center about this problems.

I think you done something in the rooting process. Try "re-rooting" it again and follow the instructions CAREFULLY, and maybe this will solve the problem.
Sent via LG P690 CyanogenMod 7.2 using XDA Premium
Whenever you update your firmware you loose root.
So they just updated your firmware so you lost your root...
Other thing first understand what is rooting..
As in our phone we are not able to access root directory of our device like drive C in computers..
So rooting is just like break that limitation so only rooting will not give birth to any problem
And only unrooting will not cure any problem...
Its like
Opening your home lock will not make your fridge to stop working and locking your home again will not cure your fridge..
So the problem may be a faulty peace of software,
Any malware
Uncompatible firmware
Wrong governers
Or any tweak you made..
Try to find out what you have screwed up with that device!
we all should be polite enough to press thanks for anyone who helped US.
but how can i find that error ? can you please tell me any "test" or "check" to find the fault ? look, i'm very new to this android world, so can you help me by accurate and detail procedure ? please.. my phone is like a dead device now !

Okay there is no program that can "check" or "test" where the problem occurs with(just I'm saying, there is something wrong you did or wrong "procedures" you followed). All you gonna do now is state more details about the procedures you follow (i. e. where did you "get" the instruction, URL, etc.). /Where do you "think" you did something wrong (cause we cannot figure it out, it the procedure in solving a problem; knowing which is the problem to be solved and what caused that problem.)
Actually in my point of view here, your phone is not "bricked" cause it's still opening up, so we can still do something about it.

Look, why are you thinking about "root" "link" "procedure" "instrunctions" repeatedly. I have not done any procedure, i only rooted it and the instruction was from here, and that was appropriate insruction for x10 mini, and for your kind information, that was your previously recommended instruction too. But i think the problem is not that, even my device is not rooted, because the service centre guys updated the firmware.

You need to install your default original samsung rom that you have the first time you got the phone.Install it and it should work fine.I did that.

Thank you for replying.
That's the point, I don't have the original ROM. I was following the tutorial and had NOT realised I wasn't making a backup and I don't think the original author even realized the it would happen that the Canadian ROM would be one of the very few which couldn't be found if things got screwed-up.

First try to get on the tutorial, from this sequence:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1416190
1.1 We need to install a boot-loader as the Samsung one is very limited and just plain awful! That said, it wasn’t intended to be used for anything other than the Samsung software so it’s not awful from their point of view but it’s pretty unfriendly to us.
To this
2.4 If you are new to use ClockworkMod recovery manager then before doing anything, please have a look at next screen to learn the navigation keys.
If this works, than we will talk what to do next.
Try different official rom, maybe it will work, you don't have anything to lose.

I don't think it's actually the ROM which is the problem but the "baseband". Twice I followed the tutorial and everything worked until it came time to restart the phone. At which time it went into the loop.
I have unlocked G5 and it is not Virgin Mobile - what now!

Hmm try searching for a "fastboot" method, i really don't know what should be a problem, im not an expert in this :/.Ill try to help you tomorrow again .
Is there such a thing as a fastboot for the Galaxy 5 i5500
I'm getting a little mixed-up and feeling a bit MORE stupid - what's the difference between the ROM and the baseband. Can one copy ROM or baseband from a working phone onto another?

Hello everybody!
I have an LG G2 mini D-625 from Mexico's TELCEL
also I have a RAZRi and a S3 mini fully unlocked and rocking CM and MIUI respectively, so I am not a total newby but still this is only my third phone with heavy mods.
I got to work on the G2 mini since I was planning on replacing my RAZRi.
I read a lot before starting, and downloaded all the drivers, tools and kdz's I needed to start.
Got the May release of the original ROM and was able to load it using the LG flash tool and the LG mobile support tool.(at this point the phone was able to get into S/W download mode)
I was able to boot with no problems and I proceeded to get root access, I did so using towelroot v1
at this point everything was still OK and I installed the supersu apk
then I trtied to flash TWRP to then flash some custom ROM and that's all there was..
next thing I see this error for a little bit and then the phone restarts.
[LGE_SECURITY] ERROR: boot image signature
[LGE_SECURITY] 5 seconds after Power is turned off for Battery saving
I have tried to get into recovery and S/W download mode and I am not able to do neither.. I actually stopped trying for a while, but decided to ask since reading got me nowhere.
I've read suggestions to just flash another kdz and that's it. But I am NOT able to get into any of those modes and I have tried every imaginable combination of keys (power + either up or down vol keys)
using the wall charger and the pc(same pc that has the drivers already since I was able to downgrade before) and still nothing.
Again, it was not my intention to bother with a Question, but I really exploited all resources.. (I even read some German, Italian and Brazilian forums.. so I DID read a lot before posting.
Moved here, since this does not belong in the development sections....read the Forum Rules on posting

Thing is, I can't really follow these steps.. Since on that post says that the phone's screen goes black but the phone is still on. In my situation the phone never stops the rebooting until I remove the battery. I do have Linux as well, so I am trying right now and the phone just reboots.

Hello friends.
I went to a Telcel store today, and they took the cellphone back! They did say that it looked like someone tried to modify the software and that the solution for that was to send it back to the manufacturer. Do they did. Supposedly in about 12 days it should be back.. So I'll let you guys know.

Hope not!! they did check the warranty first and then they took it back. also I am under a contract, so they kinda force that warranty on you.

No news?
They threw me in jail!!
Haha! Jk
They did however gave me the phone back as it was and did not fix a thing. And yes, they said it was because there was unknown software installed.
I got the address for their specialized technical team, but I'm to lazy to do it right now.
I'll post again to tell you guys how much they will charge me IF they can fix it..
