I flashed my phone with cyanogen 7.2 yesterday(it was running stock gingerbread 2.3.3) and lost network access. Everything else works fine ony there is no network reception. I have tried resetting the phone, flashed another rom (icslunar) but still no luck.Pls Help
Okey man, i will play Sherlock Holmes. So:
I wondering that you didn't read FAQ, Guides etc.... like me ;p
But also i think that you are NOT as tricky as me so,
if cyanogem 7.2 is a next version of 7.1 (which has OLD BASEBAND) it seems like 7.2 is for OLD BASEBAND TOO.
What is more you have some ways to fix it:
1. Install patch from mik_os from his 7.1 CM thread.
2. Flash old baseband because stock GB in LG i equiped with new one. >>CLICK<<
3. Flash rom for NEW BASEBAND like Nitrgen - it has very very good performace.
You choose, I suggesting
I am in very good mood today - chrismas ;p
Press thanks if you want..
Cheers
Ok got my network back by restoring previous baseband but data still is not working!
Ok, here's your problem.
When you upgraded to 2.3.3 stock gingerbread, you eliminated the possibility of any ROM based on the old baseband for .32 and limited your options to ROMs supporting the NEW baseband, .35.
If you want to switch to the old baseband so you can use those ROMs I suggest you use this guide but be VERY CAREFUL.
As for your data problem, go to Settings--> Wireless and Networks-->Mobile Networks--> AccesPointNames and check. If it's empty, you should call your service provider and ask them for your GPRS/EDGE settings.

So yes...
There's very instructions of how to flash the new baseband to the phone... but here is also the v10 baseband,.. and is not clear if you can flash the old baseband FROM the new baseband, with the same procedure.
In fact there's a Q/A which suggest it's impossible...
From the post:
Q: This appears dangerous. Is there an alternative for switching between ROMs based on LG's GB and others like CM7?
A: Life is dangerous. If you want to flash CM7-based ROM (like mik_os' CyanogenMod 7, andy572's Gingerbread ROM or Noejn's void. #forever) and have the new baseband already, there is a baseband fix by mik_os but....
I just wonder if I can flash it back so I can flash again stock Froyo 2.2 to my phone.
A little tip...
a quite few apps that worked awesomely on Froyo, now FC just before opening.
Gingerbread update sucks...
Thanks for the help.
Hi All,
I searched the forums and though this question has been asked couple of times, I failed to get a satisfying and consolidated answer, so seeking a solution here.
Scenario: X10i, 2.3.3 Stock, rooted using aZuZu. Self-customized framework-res.apk and SemcUxpRes.apk and a truckload of apps. Poor battery life, slightly laggy.
I am equally drawn towards CM7 as well as Wolfbreak 4. I know that both are completely different flavours, but much as I love the Cyanogen innovations, so do i love the tweaks done in WB's ROM with minimal changes to the UI.
Questions:
When I backup my current ROM using xrecovery, what all elements get backed up? More precisely, if I make a backup of my stock ROM using xRecovery, will it backup all the installed apps, conntacts, messages and appdata?
If I restore this backup at a later date, will I be able to get back my phone in the same state as it was backed up? (e.g. I am on level 14 on angrybirds and I made a backup, wiped my phone, and then restored the backup, will I have to start Angrybirds afresh or I can continue from where I left off, as though nothing had happened?)
Is it possible to have multiboot on the X10? So that Everytime I boot up, I can choose whether I want to load the CM7 ROM or the WB4 ROM?
Thanks in advance.
1 yes, the things you mentioned will be backed up (but not the baseband & the kernel)
2 yes, you can play angry birds from where you left off (but as I said you can't backup/restore baseband & kernel)
3 no, not yet. Before official gb there was a solution for dual booting a 2.1 rom with a 2.2/2.3 rom, but I believe dual booting two 2.3 roms is not possible for now

Thanks for that! Just a couple of doubts here:
As you mentioned, the BB and kernel wont be backed up. How exactly will that affect my device? Will it lead to any compatibility issues if I restore to a backed up ROM?
Do I need to keep a note of the Baseband and Kernel versions of all the ROMS which I intend to flash, and flash the corresponding bb & kernel versions prior to recovering a backed-up ROM? To be more clear, supposing I am on bb .71 and kernel 2.6.29, and I flash a new ROM with a different kernel. If I wish to go back to stock by recovering my backup, will I have to flash the bb .71 and 2.6.29 kernel again?
I noticed Woflbreak's ROM uses kernel version 2.3, but I am on a different kernel version (2.6.29). Do I need to downgrade to 2.3 kernel before using the WB ROM? Won't an older version of the kernel cause a drop in performance?
well to sum it up yes you need to keep a note of kernel & baseband for avoiding any compability issue, the kernel part is pretty easy, 2.1 roms all use the same kernel & 2.3 roms another kernel, If you want to go from a 2.1 rom to a 2.3 rom you need to flash the appropriate kernel (& the baseband) with flashtools, but switching from a 2.1 rom to another 2.1 rom or from a 2.3 rom to a 2.3 rom shouldn't be a problem kernel-wise, you just need to pay attention to the required baseband & flash the right one if necessary
what rom are you on?
& by the way 2.3 on Wolfbreak is not the kernel, it's the android version
the bb and kernel are in a 7zip archive linked on the page for wolfs 4.0 along with the newest patch. it explains how to do it all on the page. You must take into consideration when trying a new rom the basebands that it is made for.
Basebands can be found here.
Most newer roms will tell you in the post which baseband you need.
Also see if users post other working baseband versions along with kernel versions. how to use a custom kernel with it and a post explaining custom kernels is here.
Good morning everyone
Seems to be that my GSII has serious issues running his stock rom (continuous reboots, not-working 3g etc.). I tried several factory resets, but nothing worked 100% . CM fixes some of my problems, but the only full-working custom rom is MIUI, that seems to be stable and very neat. Despite that I still prefer the custom rom (yes I'm probably insane), or a more traditional one like CM and I really would like to understand what kind of problems can generate such a massive amount of errors and reboots.
Could be a hardware problem? MIUI works fine, I can't explain why I still got problems with other ROMs.
Sorry for my bad English, thanks in advance
Without telling us the version of the stock rom you are using, we can never give you any answers.
I'm currently using
2.6.35.7-I9100XWKDD-CL161513 [email protected] #2 Kernel
Gingerbread.xwkj3 Build
That's not the original stock ROM, just one I found (here on xda I guess...)
Is there some kind of hardware-check I can run by myself, just for exclude manifacturing defects?
if you want to check to exclude hardware defects, u could go to the dialer and press *#0*# .. it will give u a list of tests which allows u to pinpoint any hardware defects ( if it exists) .... but if the problem is with the 3g, you could reflash your modem..
Initial problems were strictly connected with 3g's use, after a few hours of use i've noticed slowdowns using sms, then it started crashing and random rebooting. That's the same reason why I initially switched from original ROM to CM. I mean, I know that Samsung's ROM is not the best one at all, but I can't figure why it's so instable on my device.

As that the oldest stock rom try a newer one .

Updating: now my GSII works with latest stable Cyanogen, except for the 3g that's still not working. Should I reflash modem, as suggested by roophz?
That old kernel is known to cause random reboots.
Update to a newer stock rom.

Update 2: I switched from the old stock rom to the latest cyanogen stable version, then to a newer stock rom and then back to MIUI again. Still no life signals from 3g.
How is that possible?
Hello XDA developers.
Im a bit confused, hope you could help me..
I have an LG Optimus P500 H , and i want to install a cyanogenmod ROM with gingerbread.
Of all the information i had gathered, my phone is in the OLD baseband, with a kernel version: 2.6.32.9
I have readed that i have to install a new baseband for the cyanogenmod "P500-v10E-baseband.7z " from this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1149530 , is that correct?
Wich version of cyanogen do you recommend me to install? I live in argentina and i dont want to lose my 3G/HDSPA/EDGE connection.
The other thing is, that all the links are dead because of the megaupload closure. =(
Thanks.
You seem confused. New baseband is v20. As long as you are not on T-Mobile, data and 3g should work fine. If you are, you can try and if it doesn't work, revert to v10. One of the network frequencies doesn't seem working with v20 (I Think its 1800hrz - correct me if I'm wrong) and as long as your network isn't dependent of that frequency, its fine.
Try out adfad666's N2 or a cyanogenmod nightly if you want. Lupohirp's ICS is almost complete and its for the new baseband, and as far as I know, the newest oxygen tom is too

Or if you don't want to flash new baseband you can try the old baseband fixes for cm7 or cm9.

Thanks-a-lot!
I think i will go for "CyanogenMod 7.2.0-RC0-OptimusOne-KANG [.32][.35][BothBasebands]" when adfad666 releases the removed link, until i feel more confident messing with the basebands and kernels, hehe..
Last year i had a HTC, wich i flashed so many times i lost count, now i see this as a whole new world!
PD: Dont like much the homescreen of "nightly" version. I miss SPB shell so much...
Hi all,
I just unlocked my Optimus T installed Cyanogenmod 7.2.0 RC0 Thunderg-KANG via clockworkmod and all works as it looks. I did not test data but it looks I have some.
I currently use a German e-Plus sim card but the same works with the T-Mobile card.
Then I installed two ICS and noticed thet dont ask me for the sim code when restarting the phone and I also do not see any network.
No sim card error icon is in the notification bar.
Then I installed updated 7.2.0 RC 2 p500 signed and the same issue.
Is this baseband related?
mine is: v070-000-000-mar-23-2009
I copied back my old KANG clockworkmod back up and all works again.
So does anybody know what the reason could be?

u still on old bb?

U think baseband can be the reason? This is mainly for data not voice.
With all other mods I do not have any network voice and data at all and the mods do not ask for the SIM Pin to enter when booting.
no body has an idea what could cause the sim card issue ?

Maybe your problem is Funny SIM problem. Check this link
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1583958
Also, how did you check your baseband? Your baseband information probably not correct. Please check the below link
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=15309588#post15309588
Check these "Q. My baseband shows as v07u-000-000-MAR-23-2009. Which one is this?" and "Q. How do I know which baseband I have?"

With the wrong baseband, you will not get either of the two. It looks like you are on the old baseband. You need the new baseband to get voice and data to work:

Hey guys
I did some more research on my side and as it looks the one ROM CyanogenMOD 7.2.0 Thunder KANG seems to work fine.
I never flashed the new baseband before and thus assume that I actually still run with the old baseband.
Few GB and all ICS ROMS don't work with my SIM Card and thus I think this is in deed the Baseband issue.
Out of precaution - I am in Germany right now and the old baseband works as it looks. How likely are the chances to brick the phone beyond repair doing the baseband flash to the new baseband?
ICS is cool but GB works pretty well here - the battery is good and that is what counts for me.
Any idea is this a pure hit n miss or it should mainly work but can in rare cases go totally wrong?
Thanks guys
Claas
