Will it be hard to update the android version? - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello, I 2 years ago I was playing a lot with putting different ROM's on my HD2. However, now I can not remember sh*t about how was it happening.
I can't even remember what exact ROM I am using, so I have no idea how to update.
What I know is
Android version 2.3.6
Build Number : GRK39F (NexusHD2-Gingerbread V3.1 a NAND)
Kernel version 2.6.32.15_tytung_r12-ga11a1a8 [email protected] #112
Can you tell me something that can be of help? I don't need to be guided like a small child through the process, but at least some general guidance to get me going
Thank you much!

MIUI On Android W007 - Android Smartphone

Hey guys,
I just recently discovered the MIUI custom ROM for Android - and i've just fallen in love with it... Unfortunately I am new to this concept of installing custom ROM, and have a few crucial questions. The first one being - is it possible to even install this ROM on my android? I have purchased imported phone, from China (the W007 Android); For this I have done quite a bit of looking around, but unfortunately (where ever I have found a download link) for the MIUI- their all just specific versions (for specific phones). I am sooo interested in installing this onto my phone, but I cannot find a valid version for my phone... The Phone Details Follow:
Android Version: 4.0.3
Baseband Version: MAUI.11AMD.W11.50.SP.V14, 2012/04/20 17:38
Kernel Version: 3.0.13 Sat Jun 9 13:12:07
Build Number: ALPS.ICS.MP.V1.11
Model Number: e1809c_v75_jbl_253
(Please just ask me for anything that is needed)
Second question was... Will I need to Root my phone, inorder to install this custom rom? I was asking this as, I believe that the warranty for the phone becomes void, if it is Rooted?
If you guys could please help me out with this little problem - It would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advanced. :fingers-crossed:

This answer in no way fixes your problem, with that being said, you are dealing with a "custom rom", when a dev builds these roms they have to deal with alot of compatibility issues and they have bugs. seen as flags, and warnings in the compiling process. Most devs will push these through and fix them post-build, as an update. I personally like to fix them as it goes. So, unless you have a repo and you know coding well , you may have to just wait for an update, or try another rom .. Android doesn't have most of these problems because they have the money and resources, Devs have build boxes and teamwork...lol

Before I am get subjected to ridicule. I'd like to say that I've cheakd almost ever source possible, hell I've even looked it up on this site. But not many cricket user know how to root their phones apparently. I have like 20 drives on my computer, and none of them work dor this root. I was just wondering if you guys (On this Award winning forum) could help me, this is my first post here. I really just want some help Rooting this Device, my dad gave it to me, and went team IPhone, so its worthless. But besides the fact that he cut off the plan, I can still use the WiFi, and get on instagram, and stuff like that. I'll just assume that You need as much information as possible to help me root this device soooooo......

[Q] Questions about modem update and a few other things

First, please forgive me if this is the wrong place, but this is the General Forum, and the forum software has changed a lot since when I was really active here as an active phone modder and active poster!
So like I said I've been away from the forums for a long time... trying to rereading a lot and trying to get back into MY PHONE.
I hate my modem sometimes because T-Mobile just sucks in some areas and is great in others [Greater Houston Texas Area, but mostly south side and towards the Galveston Bay].
I would like to know if the newer modems are interchangeable with the below config on my G900T?
And if there is any advantage to upgrading my modem? Wondering what modem I might be able to upgrade to with that below config and if there would be any advancements/pluses/gotmeinabadways/or other things I should be aware of if I did?
Also I'm wanting to upgrade to Marshmellow maybe, should I or should I just forget it? I will be reading more about the ROMs available. I've read a lot of posts about how buggy 5.1.x is. So I don't want to even go there...
Basic Phone info, Stock T-Mobile ROM [Damn bloatware] rooted awhile back with I think towelroot. I would really like to change to a slicker ROM that is debloated and maybe deoxed maybe. Will have to read hella lot more about that for sure..
Model SM-G900T Rooted
edit: Nova launcher
Android 5 not 5.1.x
BaseBand G900TUVU1D0B1
Kernel 3.4.0
TWRP 2.8.6.0 recovery installed
Broken Xposed :crying::crying::crying:
Can anyone recommend an app that will give modem info without having to decipher the baseband? or is there a very good break down of what each part of baseband means? I know go search!!! and I'm trying to reacquaint myself with the forums but the newer software is far different than I remember EKK! And search always hated me!! And even the different forum headers have changed due to time marching on and me being well Techtarded the last year or more due to things better left unsaid...
Have Xposed installed as noted above, but its been f00ked for a long time due to the ARM processor if I remember correctly and the Framework installer not being compatible..... Wish I could used the Xposed but........ I originally got into Xposed due to the Hex icons I actually paid for Xposed because I liked and used some of the modules made by smart people. Again but!!!

The most recent firmware and modem for the TMo S5 is version OL1,that came out in late December.
muniz_ri has been nice enough to put together a ROM that is the Stock ROM, already rooted, and ready to go:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/tmo...t/how-to-update-to-g900tof6-5-1-1-pc-t3141404
There are links there to the ROM, including the modem, or just the modem files themselves.

@daspazz the following website has decent basic info that seems to address the questions you ask: http://androidmodguide.blogspot.de/p/other.html
TLDR: yes modems are interchangeable
As for Marshmallow, I'm pretty sure for now, since there has been no official 6.0 update yet, you'll have to go with Cyanogenmod 13 (or one of the variants like Bliss 6.0 or Resurrection-Remix), they're in the unified development section (our phone's development codename is KLTE).
As for deciphering the baseband, look at the last three characters, let's assign them generic letters XYZ. X is the year (M being 2013, N being 2014, O being 2015, P being 2016, etc.), Y is the month (substitute the actual letter for its position in the alphabet), and Z is the revision number. So taking the most recent firmware (G900TUVS1FOL1) as an example: OL1: O means 2015, L means December, and 1 means 1st revision. Another example, build number G900TUVU1ANE6: NE6: N means 2014, E means May, and 6 means 6th revision.
It seems to me there's been some consensus that the most recent modem (which rlichtefeld linked to in the post above mine) is the best
Much Thanks!!!!
@rlichtefeld and @thisisapoorusernamechoice
I really appreciate the information gentlemen!!!! I've been reading through the info you both provided.
I did flashed my modem (only) to the newest one, G900T_OG6_Stock_Modem.tar. Ended up having to flash back to the modem for 5.0, G900TUVU1DOB1-MODEM.tar, because I literally could not hear anyone when I made or received calls.....
Also had to used Odin v3.09, because v3.10.6 wouldn't recognize my phone. Strange that!!
This ADB installer was very helpful!! It fixed problems I was having on the PC I was using to flash my phone. Much thanks to @Snoop05 for the ADB installer for the PC. It keeps you from having to install the full SDK for Android.
Thread moved to proper forum.

EVA-L09 -upgraded to Android 7, ended up on Android 5.1

Hi there,
I followed a guide off the net to upgrade to the latest version of Android on my Huawei EVA-L09. 'Upgrade' done, I'm now on Android 5.1 and EMUI 3.1... so I'm pretty sure I haven't upgraded at all. I cannot get the phone connected back to my PC (W10) probably some sort of driver issue (worked before the upgrade though!)
Any advise on what to do? I've just bought a Galaxy S8, so just want this on the latest version of Android to use it for a few days then sell it..
Many thanks
A quick note, I'm currently on model number A168-L09 and Build number: EMUI-A168-L09C432B040SP11. All I want is the latest version of Android and not a beta version, just want the phone being sold. The build numbers make absolute no sense to me, very difficult to understand!
Any help is appreciated.
