Flashing new Baseband from SDcard - Optimus One, P500, V General

Is it possible to flash the new baseband from the SD card? My LG Optimus One will not be detected by windows. It's not that it can't find the drivers, windows does not see the device. I've tried 3 different USB cables and two different computers to no avail. I asked around and people told me my PCB needs to be replaced. Unforunately my phone is out of warranty, so I was wondering if there is any other way to flash to the new baseband without having to deal with a usb cable?

NO!

Why don't you try using the old baseband fix since you can't update ur baseband

Can you please elaborate?
I have the same problem as the poster, my USB seems dead.
I tried the baseband fix from adfad666 with cm7.2 and ICS, but neither is working
thanks

YOU SAVE MY TIME..
AWESOME..!!!!
when installing CM9, there's no gsm data,
they say.. the only way is change the baseband to the newer one..(v20)
googling everwhere..
i tried to update baseband via LGMDP.exe or official updater from LG..
but NONE of them works.. because the computer didn't recognize the O1 port.
but your flashable zip is just plain AWESOME..
thank you very much..
IT WORKS without doing stupid complicated things with LGMDP.. :good:

? Flashed this but didn't change in " about phone" does it just not say it changes
dumbest thing lately.....miui roms

[Q] Please Help w/ Baseband Pleeeaaaaassse

Hi I'm stuck on baseband 49 and I have broken the micro usb slot, so I have two questions.
1) Is there any way to upgrade to a higher baseband without the usb slot ?
2) Does anyone make a good Rom that is compatible with this baseband ? If so which one ? Maybe an older version of a current Rom ?
Sorry if this thread has been done before, I searched. Thanks a lot !
Nothing?

Not that I know of.. But since you're upgrading your baseband to a higher one by using Flashtool, how would you connect it if the USB slot is broken?

If you are on stock room at this moment... I think that u can get stock updates over the air.. not so sure thou, you can always try to fix that broken usb port thou
Anyway if u can get stock updates over the air... GB update comes with BB 71 so u will be ok...
Im not on a stock rom, im on a Arc rom from a month or two ago that was compatible with bb 49. Thanks though.

[Q] A few Questions

Hello,
I have p500(indian) on old baseband and want to upgrade to new bb using lgmdp.. following are a few questions that i dint find an answer to.
1.what is the risk of having a bricked device if i turn off lg virtual modem..?
2. th lg virtual modem is shown as lge android platform usb modem.. is it the same..?
3. What rom and recovery should i be on to flash new baseband?
4. can i flash cm9 first and then new baseband?
5.my recovery takes around 5 seconds to show the options... it wasnt like this before.. is this normal? im on the recovery i firrst installed(amonra 1.2 the one with bad boot message)
6.before flashing a recovery zip or cwm from rom manger what precautions should i take?
7.In rom manager if i say install recovery.. it shows p500 and p500(oldbb) so if i flash old bb now and then upgrade.. will it work?
8. if flash the one without (oldbb) will my phone get bricked..?
Thanks for your answers in advance.. p500 was the best phone i got in my life.. and its not because of lg.. its because of its awesome community.!
> when i was on stock as you
> 1st I rooted ,this is A MUST 1st to do
> 2nd flash clockworkmod or amonra.. but cwm would be good for starters, just download rom manager at play store.. and u'll get it
> 3rd since ur on old baseband.. i suggest you flash cm7 rom or the on i modded then flash the old baseband fix so you dont need to upgrade
> incase you want to upgrade so u can also use cm9
> now is the time to use lgmdp .. Em not sure.. but i think its different ..virtual modem wasnt there when i switched baseband so i did not disabled any..
i think it good
Can anyone answer please..? cant find answers to these questions.. and neko man i think you misunderstood my question.. it partly answered one that is lg virtula modem maybe does not play an important part.. ppl please answer..
!
Well there are many tutorials out there on how to get new bb. Just follow them step by step. You have to flash it first then you can get CM9. Forgive me but some of your question sound like this "Will my phone work if I submerge half of it in water?". Don't worry just do as you're told on the tutorials All the best!

There is definitely a risk, and you have to follow the instructions clearly to avoid any risks. To be honest here, I bricked my phone thrice (yes! 3 times) using kdz updater. That's why I'd suggest that you don't upgrade to new bb using kdz updater

The only and most secure thing i have to prefer u to flash official froyo 2.2.2 on ur phone first... if u already using it then its ok... n if not then search a official froyo rom in zip format for flashing it via cwm recovery... after then... use lg pc suite for upgrading it to official 2.3.3 n ur phone will automatically updated to new bb too.
EDIT: Just clarify me what rom n recovery are u using...!?? What android version and baseband shows on ur phone....
Type in phone dialer to get BB details

Double problem, but i need one fix

OK, i am using UI-One rom whcih is a copy of miui for lg optimus one.
i have an lg thrive, cousin of the o one
everytime i flash a rom for lg optimus one, i must flash stock p505 kernel to fix color issue.
but now keyboard does not work without ics cm kernel, but color problem persists, i cant use both kernels at one time.
how do i fix this, so my colors would work, and keyboard wiould work too.
The thrive is old baseband. I have a thrive myself. I've found that Jobans #8 - 2.6.32.9 kernel is the only one that works correctly with this phone. One other option is to flash v20 firmware to upgrade device to new baseband.

[Q] No IMEI and baseband is unknown

So my friend gave me his phone in hope that i could fix it. The phone didn't read SIM card and no calls could be made with it (he used it as MP3). So i tryd to root the phone (z4root and gingerbreak failed) with LGMDP and got the recovery were i flashed SlimGen ROM. Phone still had same problem. I also flashed franco.Kernel4. Now i have no IMEI and "About phone" shows that Baseband is unknown. The LGMDP still shows some IMEI. Oh and when i boot up the phone it shows flight mode icon at top but wifi works...
You don't have the new baseband. You'll have to flash it first

Try getting back to Stock Firmware
Try to get to the stock firmware using KDZ. Search for it and you'll find the relevant info. If you have tried changing baseband using LGMDP when it had an IMEI, it must have taken a backup. See whether you can restore it.

.35 likely refers to the newer kernels, not new baseband. Old BB is v10-something and new bb is v20-something.
The others know more about the rest, so I'll be quiet.

What did you do in the first place to mess it up?
I didnt do anything ! Even i havent root my phone either !! M using 2.3.4 Ind version gb.
Can i update it with official ics and have new baseband ?
Everyone thinks that unknown baseband means corrupted efs but not always. First try taking out your battery for 3 min and pit it back. Your baseband may come back. Works for me.

i wouldn´t reccomend to do anything like efs or whatever without having some basic experience
Just update your phone and see what happens. 2.3.4 isn´t the best firmware imo
i think an update is a solution for your problem.
