Been trying to get my phone to run fully on gingerbread, and have tried the official v20e.kdz flash, as well as Mik_os's CM7, both worked great, and I liked them a lot.
BUT, I can't get my 3G/Data connection to work on either. WiFi works fine, and I can connect to the internet fine that way.
So I am currently flashed back to the gross V10V 2.2.1 Froyo until I can get it figured out. I REALLY want to run CM7, but with no 3G I just can't really use it.
Searches have returned nothing. Any other canadian guys out there with this same problem?
I have a data plan, and I am with Koodo/Telus.
I believe it has something to do with the baseband.
Look here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1217504
Already checked it out, but the V10E image will not work with my phone. I need the V10V image for it to work. Is there a 7z for the V10V platform?

If you want a custom ROM, select one that corresponds to your baseband or switch the baseband. If you do not, you will have no data. That is all to it. End of story.
You can extract the baseband yourself from KDZ archive. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=901417 (steps 1-2).
All of this covered in the sticky thread.
Got it. Currently have extracted needed files from the uncompressed dz file for my stock ROM. I will be reuploading CM7 and franco's kernel,(Lots of users seem to have luck with it, and I liked it when I ran it for a day) and then flashing my V10V radio and I will let you know!
Edit:
Wait, CM7 currently has a bug so 3G/Data does not work? Shoot! Or am I fixing this by flashing my stock rom's baseband? Will find out soon enough....
And I admit I'm a bit of a noob, I only started doing this last week. I'm learning though.
You need old (v10) baseband

No dice. My phone was in its factory state when I began this project. It was rooted, installed AmonRa's custom backup, and I installed DrellisDee's Kernel so I could overclock with 2.2.1 froyo. Was stable at 480/768, but it still wasn't enough.
Nandroid backup, google backup, cleared cache, and dalvik. (Thank your AmonRa!)
Flashed CM7, latest stable release 6.5.7
Flashed franco.Kernel.v1-16082011
Booted up, currently running with no issues. Flashed my V10V baseband using LGMDP v1.5.exe .
No errors, everything went well, battery still at 92%.
Still no internet unless connected to WIFI, Damn. Guess I'm S.O.L. on this one eh?
Thanks for the help guys. Gonna check out some other Ginger ROMs and give them a try to see if I can get ginger to work with my 3G network. Any suggestions? I'm stuck with v10 based ROMs since LG hasn't released any V20 setups for my network.

Have you set up the APNs for your Telco?

Never thought of that, hmmm, APN's are blank. One second....
GOT IT!!!!! Everything is working, 3G, 2G, wifi, etc.
Of course it was something so simple, haha.
THANKS! Awesome help!
Off to play with my phone for a few hours!
At least it works now.
Yeah, I don't think I can put my phone down now. Definitely enjoying the benefits of CM7. I think I am gonna go make my friend with the galaxy S jealous lol.

You can't tell me how you got the phone rooted in the first place can you?
I'm with Koodo and have the Froyo 2.2.1 firmware on there.
I've tried everything I can do to get it rooted, and it just won't!
Gingerbreak says that there is a problem and won't do it.
Superoneclick hangs on step 6 which is mounting the SD card
I tried to grab a v10_G flash which is the telus stock ( I think ) but there was an error while trying to flash with kdz flash ( update error param =2 ).
Can ANYBODY help me to figure this out?
I havd koodo, just last friday I rooted 2 friend's phones with the gingerbreak app from xda thread. I took the second one and at first it didn't work because there were too many dots in the file name, simple as that, took me a while to figure it out, so I renamed to something like gingerbreak1.apk and it worked. For the data not working, just google " koodo apn " then you'll end up with the good apn info wich is simply. " sp.koodo.com " , port = 80, NO proxy as it just slow down the net, the other settings as they already are, 302 and 230 or something like that they come as default near the bottom of apn creation option in mobile options. All other fields leave blank. Hope it works..

Thanks for the post...
I decided to install a different version of gingerbreak, and suddenly everything worked so simply...
I have since installed clockworkmod and have done a full back up.
Then I installed cyanomod and everything is up and going.
I was nervous to flash the google apps, but everything is happy.
Oh ya... I did have to update my apn data to the koodo network. I've tested MMS in and out.
You might want to try Andy's Phoenix rom; the fastest one and amazing statusbar. Some light text issues will be fixed the 20th october update. Beside that, the best for me with franco 2.6.35.14 oct. 2 kernel. Anyway, glad you could make it

I have a Samsung Vibrant-
I flashed Simply Stock 2.3.5 to it, loved it
but,,, what I did not know, is I was not receiving calls...
It seems as this is an issue that others have seen, what was / is the fix?
thanks!!
I am also having the same issues after flashing
Simply Stock 2.3.5 with a simply.stock.JVS.Talon.kernel. I even tried the bullet kernel and I get the same emergency calls only error "No service- selected network (my network) unavailable). the only time this Simply Stock 2.3.5 rom works for me is when I use its stock kernel.
ok I finally figured it out,
after odin you have to flash either "Asgard_32_0821signed" rom or "Malice_v5_EDT" and then you have to flash on top of either of these 2 roms simple stock 2.3.5
do this if it helped me I see no reason it wont help u.
Not the same as what Noob4Life is posting.
First of all, I'm in the UK and was running the stock 2.2 or whatever was the stock was for Orange in the UK a month back, until I finally decided to upgrade to CM7.
A few weeks went by, all was awesome. Until last week my Wifi stopped working, my bluetooth stopped working and my Mobile hotspot stopped working. And looking around on a few posts on here, it seems that it is hardware based.
So what I'm asking is, does anyone know of a way I can go back to the stock 2.3 that has just been released in the UK? So it seems like I never did anything to the phone and then I can see if it is infact hardware, or software based. So if it is hardware related, I'm hoping I'll be able to get a free repair / replacement, as I have insurance. But from what I've seen, it will cost me if I take it in with CM7 on.
Thanks for any help anyone is able to provide.

Like Sexywacko said, first try out a fruitcake or another rom - best to take the new AT&T with the corresponding radio found here.
If it still doesn´t work, try another one. If all goes bad, you have to get the SBF from the OrangeUK GB-Update found here - extract the system, boot and webtop + the radio and fastboot flash those. This comes as close to stock as you can get without using SBF+RSDlite...This post will help you.
And don´t be afraid - I read on multiple occasions, that people had no problem getting their unlocked/rooted devices repaired without any waranty-problems. Just don´t tell them!
Thanks for the help guys.
Just put Fruitcakes "2.3.5 System and Boot NO Webtop" on, and turning wifi on is still causing " error " and causing a reboot.
How do I install new radio things? I'm a complete noob at this, and only put Cyanogenmod on using a guide ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1336232 )
And now it's stuck rebooting all the time because it's trying to turn Wifi on.
Flash the 36P radio from the Fruitcakes thread through CWM in the same way you flashed 2.3.5. Remember to wipe cache first in CWM.
Well installing the 36p seems to have done the trick. Thanks alot dude!
Updated to Fruit Cakes 2.3.5 System and Boot NO Webtop with ATT 1.77-36p radio. Seems to have fixed the problem.
Don't want to risk putting Cyanogen back on incase it stops working again.
Thanks for your help again guys

I am using CM7 weekly #3 with Faux stopgap+ 1.0GHz kernel and 36P radio with no issues. Works very well for me.
It's stopped working again. Stupid thing. Going to try and restore it to stock orange ROM and see if that fixes it.
Anyone able to help?
Think I'm just going to give up and " Accidently " drop my phone in the bath and claim on insurance. This having no wifi is doing my head in. I've tried CM7 with " ATT .91 Radio " and " ATT 1.77-36p " radios. And I've tried Fruitcakes 2.3.5 System and Boot NO Webtop with " ATT .91 Radio " and " ATT 1.77-36p " radios and still no success in getting wifi to work for over 2 hours without crashing my phone / not working again.
Motorola Phone Tools isn't picking my phone up properly, it's just picking up my IMEI number, not my Carrier or Model.
Must say I'm at my wits end.
Its obviously. A hardware issue do. A insurance clame. On it cause it sours like the radio is broken

I'm afraid it's looking that way.
Well I've decided to try RSD as my last resort to try and get my phone wifi working. I unlocked the bootloader and installed cyanogen using this Guide. I then put Fruitcakes 2.3.5 System and Boot NO Webtop on and the radio mentioned in this Thread with little success at getting it fully working.
My phone info ATM:

What I'm asking is, realistically, what is the chance of bricking?
Looking to do the same, currently unlocked and rooted running CM7.
Is it possible to install the official 2.3.4 orange UK and have it locked with root access removed?

I downloaded the latest RSD and downloaded this image
Booted phone up in RSD mode ( power button + Volume Up ) then plugged it into my computer. Waited for all the drivers to install. Opened RSD, loaded the image and set it going. Do not unplug it at all until it says " Please boot up phone manually " or something along those lines.
Once it'd done it was loop booting, so I booted it into Android Recovery after pulling my battery out ( Power Button + Volume Down ) and then pressed the Volume up and Volume Down buttons together to get the menu up, then chose " Wipe date/Factory reset " and then " Wipe cache partition " and let it boot up again. Didn't solve my Wifi problem though.
Phoned Orange up today, explained that my wifi, bluetooth and hotspot all stopped working and that I'd already done a factory reset and updated to gingerbread. The guy was shocked that I'd basically done everything on his menu to try and solve the problem. They are sending a guy out tomorrow to give me a replacement phone for £25 on my insurance. Winner!
ok so my problem is i tried doing this http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/Samsung_Vibrant:_Full_Update_Guidebecause i cant find free rom manager on the market and if i get an apk off the internet and try to update it doesnt show up. after that it all went good but when the overstock restarted my phone the lockscreen wouldnt budge. it just stays black then the phone vibrates and shuts off and goes to boot again. idk whats wrong and i kinda need help. can i fix it without restoring the whole phone?
You installed the old Overstock 2.2 kernel on 2.3 CM7? Wont work dude. Overstock is for 2.2 and 2.2.1 ROMS. Wont work with any 2.3 rom.
For CM7 / Miui use:

So my touchscreen didnt want to work anymore yesterday.
I restarted my phone several times and it didnt work.
I then went into xrecovery and clicked 'fix permissions'
Then more stuff didnt want to work anymore
I reinstalled the update.zip file, did a factory reset etc
And now my phone is stuck at the boot with 'Sony Ericsson'
I had minicm6 v6 on my phone (u20i)
I tried reinstalling a backed up zip, but still nothing.
What now?
If you made a backup you should try to restore that.

Edit: Got my phone working, but now when I download something from the market, the phone restarts when it installs ?
Have you figured out the reason why it keeps restarting? If not I would try to reflash the rom.
Keep us updated.

Soooo now that everything is working fine again, would anyone like to recommend me a new ROM to install? Some CM7 mod/rom maybe?
Which ones are the best?
(I know there is a list with all of the roms available for my phone, just thought I'd ask)
Im not sure which roms are available for your phone but cm7 is always a good choice.

I ended up in installing CyanoCream Sandwich v2.0

Check this one Its the best one and quite fast then other ROMS

I had Stornmix V2 installed for a couple of weeks and it's fast and stable...I really like it.
The only problem I noticed is that when I'm using the video camera, the phone just freezes and I need to remove the battery to make it work again.
The problem with that one is the requirements:
Unlocked bootloader
Latest version of the nAa kernel
I dont know if I have those things on my phone.
And Im not too sure on how to put it on, if i have too
Update:
CyanoCream Sandwich is a bit slow to be honest. I think I will be looking for a new one to install
You will learn little by little by searching through the forums. Unlocking takes some time and some patience.
If you only follow the instructions step by step then you will get an unlocked bootloader and you can install any kernel. dont worry, you will get it soon.
my regards and good luck for that.
