I just have a few questions about the process.
1. Once i do get this new baseband, how do i revert to the baseband I'm currently using. I've used everything from openoptimus to megatron to devoid final to void to cyanogenmatt to mik_os cm7 and have never changed the baseband.
2. What is the best rom available as far as performance,stability,and battery are concerned. I'm not exactly a newb but I'm not an advanced user either.

2. CM7
You should read this before asking such questions.
I appreciate the help but to be more specific. I see there are two baseband types. One for official GB and the other for all roms. My question is say i want to flash the new openoptimus 2.3.3 i know id use the first baseband but than id want to use say mik_os cm7 or megatron etc.... id use the other baseband. Would i have to flash the basebands each time i want to use a different rom

i would personally stick with roms that require the old baseband. switching roms is already a hassle, but to switch basebands...not only is that time consuming but you also risk bricking your phone. the majority of the roms here use the old baseband so i would recommend sticking with the old baseband
but to answer your question, yes you would have to flash the baseband each time you switch to another rom that requires the other baseband
2. try AGA rom.
Sweet, thank you. That's what i figured but the custom roms look so appealing when they already have so many tweaks ie..loopy snoothness,lqlite.so

Is there any way we can have new baseband on our CM and ASOP rms for lgp500...Waiting for one ...
I'm not exactly sure what you mean by that, from what I've read baseband the new baseband will come packaged with these roms. Its a hassle flashing baseband, something I've never done, would like to try out criscco,aga and other GB official roms. I've sticked with the likes of Mik_os 6.5.7/6.6.1 roms,megatron,devoid final/echo/void. I've read from around these forums having GB roms aren't even worth the time flashing these basebands

If you don't know anything about baseband (and have never messed with it) you probably have the old baseband

Oh thank you.. and is the rom and kernal you are using for your phone good?
i think it is one of the best roms out there performance wise. the only reason why i would not recommend it is because of the minor bugs it has (which i believe will be fixed this weekend)
if you take a look at it and find that you do not like it, you should try mik's port of cyanogenmod7 here (which is also good performance wise)
hi i just bought my phone last week an I've already experienced some lag even though there's not much apps installed. so now i want to try a custom rom. what rom would be the best for first timers thanks..
If you have 2.2 installed (old baseband) than andy's phoenix rom is the best.
Grab it from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=909242
If you have 2.3 (new baseband) than you should go for Ginger LOL:

baseband is not the android version. i wrote up a small thing on baseband here.
here is the link for ginger lol (the link in post two is actually the right link except for the four dots):
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1118685
in my opinion, i would use andy's phoenix rom. follow these instructions:
a) http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=15309588&postcount=2
b) also, since you are currently using official gingerbread (2.3.3), you need to downgrade your baseband version, instructions found here
thanks for the info man. as i've read, most roms will eventually support the new baseband. so i think, im gonna wait a little longer for that. one more thing though. i though when i install rom, the kernel comes along with it, but as i read it seems that i need to flash my kernel too? thanks for your help.
phoenix rom comes with franco's .35 kernel preinstalled
There's no need to install other kernel.
roms using old baseband is never going to support new baseband...
DUDE I prefer, no need to root your stock rom for installing custom rom.
follow http://lg-p500-optimusone.blogspot.com/ if u want this.

The only reason not to flash to the new baseband with Gingerbread (2.3) is if your carrier uses HSDPA in the 1700Mhz band (T-Mobile in the US, for example).
In that case, I recommend sticking with the stock rom (or a custom one that includes the LG framework, at least), modifying it yourself (flashing a new kernel alone will make it feel like a new phone), and retain the features found only in the LG framework (the LG camera app is tremendously better than any of the available alternatives). Or, if you don't mind losing most of the camera's features, you can upgrade to a version of Gingerbread that supports the old baseband (I recommend Adfad666's A-Series or F-Series rom with fserv's modified version of the francokernel).
Otherwise, it would be advisable to take the leap and enjoy the enhancements of the new baseband (most notably, users are reporting a stronger overall signal).
Keep in mind that in the future, most rom developers will probably be shifting strictly to the new baseband. So, if you switch now, you'll be prepared for any future rom updates.
Hi,
I was thinking of installing a custom ROM on my Optimus One/P500 last year but decided not too and kept using the stock 2.1 ROM, until yesterday when i installed the root uninstaller app to remove some of the annoying default apps and somehow messed the phone up and now it won't start!
So now i wan't to install a custom ROM with Gingerbread, but there seem to be so many different ones with different specs that a n00b like me just isn't 1337 enough to understand.
I'm looking for a simple Gingerbread ROM without too many fancy add-ons, it should have the default Gingerbread theme, should run faster then and get better battery life then stock Android 2.1, and be stable enough for everyday use, please suggest which ROM i should install!
Nearly 90% of the official roms are uploaded with megaupload and those links are down

You should update to Official Gingerbread for Optimus One.
Better battery life? No way. Stock Froyo version has the best battery life. Any Gingerbread rom will drain your battery quick. The only advantage is that Gingerbread run more fast.
First update to official gingerbread for the new baseband..
follow this http://webtrickz.com/install-offici...te-on-lg-optimus-one-using-kdz-updater-guide/
and root it.. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1007244
and Flash Perfectpeso ROM its Good
If Gingerbread will drain the battery too much, what's a good user friendly and minimalistic Froyo ROM that will have better battery life then stock?
Also i seem to have messed up my stock ROM while trying to get rid of some default apps using the "Root Uninstaller" app from the Android market, It won't get past the 'ANDROID' title screen, Is it possible to install a new ROM without having to start the phone?
If you doesn't want to change baseband, you must search rom that works on the old one.
There's even a fix that made possible use the gingerbread ron on the old baseband.
Some roms (like nightlyfour by eeee616) has a old baseband version, other (like Perfectpeso by tretted) has linked the fix for old basebad by adfad666.
Bye!

You can flash custom recovery via LGMDP tool.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=15217609&postcount=3
Then hang the three button combo Power+Home+Vol down till recovery opens and flash the ROM there.
If you want Froyo, I suggest you devoid #froyo-final .
But I don't agree with previous posts - I think, the battery in Gingerbread is much better than in Froyo.
Better use mik's CM 7.1 ROM. i had used it for almost 4 months with no issues. If you are a heavy user of 3g or 2g data, it is recommended that you upgrade your baseband for a slightly better reception, if not, stick to this baseband, and you can flash the recovery via LGMDP tool(link in the post above mine).
I have been using the latest CyanogenMod 7 after updating my phone with the official LG updater, re-rooting, installing Rom Manager, and it's great. Especially with this kernel

As we know there are two types of baseband's available for our device, old baseband which is used by froyo and some gingerbread rom's and new baseband that is used by gingerbread onwards.
To switch baseband you either need to flash baseband through lgmdp or flash firmware using kdz and both involves a substantial degree of risk of bricking your device.
What I will be telling will not actually change your baseband but will make the ROM compatible with the baseband you are using. So here it is how it goes.
-> If you are having old baseband and want to use new baseband ROM, flash this after flashing ROM

Note:- Patch for old baseband was originally made by adfadd and thats where idea came for creating a patch for new baseband. While the patch by adfadd is long lost in pile of threads, this is where this thread will come handy.
Flashing baseband through LGMDP cannot brick your device,only flashing full firmwares via LGMDp or KDZ_FW_UPD can have chance to brick

Manual search fix
Here is the libril.so for manual search fix. My friend tested it on new baseband and it works.
So, probably for all new basebands including funnysim may work for gingerbread, ics and jellybean. Please test it on and report.

i looked into the zip file and found that a few lib files are added by flashing the patch. would this affect the performance? my phone works fine in 90% of the time. however, sometimes it is just too laggy to even answer calls. it could become normal after some time, say 30s ro 1min.
i dont have this problem when i was using roms based on the old baseband. so i am wondering what would the patch do to the system.
thanks.

those libs aren't going to affect performance in any way... its the ROM & kernel that affects performance.
