Can I flash FXP106 on my FXP105?
My Baseband is .42 and i've got FXP from FXP103.
Any improvement from .42 to .62 baseband?
Thanks!!
Yes, just flash the baseband from .62 with Flashtool. Use the standard .62 .FTF file, untick 'Wipe User Data', and tick 'Wipe Cache', ' Exclude system' and 'Exclude Kernel'. Then, flash the latest FXP kernel, boot via recovery and flash the FXP update from there.
To be safe, make a nandroid backup via recovery first.
I'm not sure about the improvements from .42, through. I use the .36 baseband myself.
Thanks. But...I flash FXP106 on my FXP105 with baseband .42 without flash baseband .62 and worked well. I flashed baseband .62 now, and FXP106 is working well. Must I reinstall FXP106?
I'm Spanish, my english is bad, sorry.
No, you don't need to. It's just that FXP said that the latest builds require the latest baseband. Probably the later builds contain newer baseband libraries, which when used with older baseband would introduce minor glitches.
Baseband is on a separate partition from the ROM (/system) and kernel, afaik.
I hope this answers your question.
OK. Perfect!
Thanks!!

Ok guys I have been reading all day trying to find directions on exactly how to flash my baseband and the more threads and posts i read I am just getting myself confused So I need someone who knows how to do this to confirm the following or correct anything i have wrong before i attempt this. I am using wolfbreaks TW 0007 froyo rom and have some experience with using Xrecovery so i am not clueless about making changes to my X10. Here's my question, I know i need bb .52 to use wolfs rom with his kernel. I am currently on bb .54 and i know i have to use flashtool to flash a new baseband. This is the first time attempting to flash a baseband or try a custom kernel.
Do I flash the BB.52 by itself with flashtool and then reboot into Xrecovery and flash Wolfbreaks TW v007 rom with Kernel?
do I need to flash back to Generic SE .435 2.1 firmware before I flash the baseband?
Some guys had posted to bundle the BB and rom, then flash with flashtool but the rom is a . zip file not a .ftf or .rar so i'm pretty sure that isn't right.
I hope someone can help me clear this up so i can start enjoying the custom kernels the devs are working on. thanks to everyone on XDA for the awesome work you do.
A full reflash is recommended as it is hard to mess up. As a matter of fact I've just completed my flash from stock kernel TW007 to the custom kernel version.
So here's the steps:
1. Use any available method to revert to stock.
2. Get root, xRec, etc. from flashtool
3. Make sure you can enter xRecovery (Vital!)
4. Flash 2.0.52 baseband
5. After flashing, reboot directly into xRecovery (don't let the system do a full reboot!), then flash the .52 rom (kernel is already included in the package)
6. Reboot after flashing rom+kernel, let it settle then sign into market
7. Customize

If you wanna use a lower bb then your best option if you wanna have GB is to go back to an old custom GB rom that works on the older baseband.
hi, you can do it, but be carefull, do it on your own risk!!!!!!!!
what you need is
flashtool http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=920746&highlight=flashtool
baseband http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=960527&highlight=baseband
i hope you know how to use flashtool, so when you have your favorite baseband its an ftf file, open it with 7.zip and delete the kernel.sin, so you will flash only the baseband.
now you are on your favorite baseband with GB kernel, but maybe you cant send sms, then you need an sms patch from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1177744
i tested only bb67 with GB kernel and sms patch on custom rom, and it works for me

It won't be stable unless you switch to a custom rom that supports the chosen baseband.

although this thread is different, the attachment works for you too.
flash it with Xrecovery after installing the rom you want. works for custom roms (genric roms i dont know, maybe).Make sure you only use Xrecovery below 1.0 (dun use 1.0, use 0.3 or 0.2 or 0.1)
it will change the baseband to 46 or 54 nt sure, but it does downgrade. but make sure YOUR ROM IS BASEBAND-DOWNGRADABLE or else your rom will be corrupted. you can also install a new rom AND FLASH IT RIGHT AFTER YOU FLASH THE ROM THROUGH xREC.

hi,
I´m on rooted neo v with bootloader unlocked and have updated fw and kernel to .62
but I still have old baseband (xxD-56 - new is D-64)
don´t see any disadvantages so far,
I´m just curious and interested.
and where is the baseband integrated (if)?
Kernel or FW?
for other devices (i.e. HTC) you can update baseband
by cwm and zip-file...
Here you go!
.62 firmware Baseband:

i found in another thread the .64 baseband for neo v which is here:
http://205.196.122.253/3370kbxvo93g/lis7dx8dhppylq2/.64+baseband.rar
which one shud i install..
im on .62 based fw (NeoV.62_ODEX_Smooth_Spacious_n_Light)
and night-elf kernel...
Suggest you to do a full flash to 0.62 fw with flashtool using this ftf file,then move to spacious rom This way your phone is fully updated to 0.62 fw.

I do not know why but this never worked for me,after flashing this and few seconds after booting it keeps getting rebooted at Sony ericsson kernel boot logo
cool.. will try in sometime
I currently run CM7 6.5.8 on old baseband. I am considering trying out a new ROM or two. I realize that to use CM9 or Oxygen I need to flash the new baseband – I undertstand that. However, I can flash PerfectPeso with my old baseband and flash the New BasebandFix by adfad666. My question is what does this New Baseband Fix do? If I flash PerfectPeso & the new baseband fix then decide I don’t like it, can I simply restore CM7 without worrying about the baseband? Or will I need to flash the old baseband back?
Also, there is no official install guide for PerfectPeso…can I assume it is the typical - wipe data, cache, then flash ROM then flash Baseband Fix?
Thanks for the help,
Baseband fix doesn't change baseband. You'll have to flash fix for every new baseband ROM you try but if you revert back to old baseband ROM then no need to flash baseband fix. Just flash ROM.
Yes its typical wipe data/cache/dalvik, all three.

just update baseband, Lg updated it for a reason =)
Use the guide in my signature
I flashed baseband using LG's official updater. The only downside is that it upgraded me to Gingerbread and destroyed my root ):, but luckily I used SuperOneClick to re-root and flashed the new baseband version of CWM which includes CyanogenMOD Nightlies!
Just a small question. Is it alright if I flash the basebands on this forum if I have the SK17A? Or will it brick my phone's radio?
u can make some backup for your stock kernel first, or googling

He asked about baseband, not kernel.
As far as I know, baseband is not located insite kernel.
@OP
No, you shouldn't flash "i" basebands in your "a" phone. It'll mess with your 3G reception.
You can download an .ftf firmware file for your SK17a in this topic.
It's a bundle file, which contains kernel, loader, system and baseband.
In short: if you just want to flash the SK17a baseband, download that file and, in Flashtool, select "exclude" for everything, except baseband.
