I made sure everything was correct, I flashed the ZV4 .tot file with the ls990 .dll and it passed. When my device booted up, it would not go through the hands free activation. I checked my settings under "About phone" > "Status" and my ESN is different, my MEID HEX is different, my MEID DEC is different, my IMEI is different and my ICCID and IMSI are both unknown. I don't even know where to start with this. My phone had been rooted prior to this and I didn't use any modifications other than changing the CPU governor. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I've already tried this multiple times and it won't work. I'm kinda stuck here. I used the LG Flash Tool before and everything went fine, i did nothing different this time, it's really hurting my head.
This happened to me before! I had no idea what caused it because I was just out and about then I noticed the same differences as you. If I recall I kept trying the ##SCRTN# dialer code but I had to try like 5 times before it worked

This is probably a long shot but... If you go here. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=38348745 it's a walk thru on EFS.
Obviously it's not for your phone but I think if you follow it and use the G3 numbers/codes it might help. It'll be a lot of work.
Or, you may be able to use the Factory Warranty because your phone is less than a year old.

Unfortunately,
There is nothing a LG support person can do about corrupted or lost efs. He'll either have to send his phone off to LG or get a switch through an insurance claim with sprint and hope they don't give him a hard time.

Our phones have a one year factory warranty. If we contact them we can mail it back to get it repaired or replaced for free. At their discretion of course.
So he has nothing to lose by trying.

I have a small echo-like noise now that I hear during phone calls on my phone. I think it is a hardware issue because I don't hear it on my bluetooth headset. I called Verizon 800 number the other night because I was wondering about the 4G outage and mentioned my audio problem while I was on the phone with her. She said if I call back from another phone, tech support would connect to my Thunderbolt and troubleshoot the audio problem, and if its unfixable they would send me another Thunderbolt.
I am wondering if I need to unroot before I do this....would tech support be able to tell if my phone was rooted and thus void the warranty and not be able to do anything for me? What should I do?
Bare minimum I'd install the stock rom on there, I don't believe they would dig far enough to see if fastboot is unlocked.
As for the title question Yes, they can tell if rooted.
I don't think they can tell Cuz I called yesterday Cuz my screen is messing up they called me back on another line and wanted me to do a factory reset but didn't know that I was already on GB

The only thing I can think of, and I'm no expert or anything so this is just a guess, is that they could look at the software version of the phone, and if it isn't the latest, or a previous release for this phone, then they could speculate that you are rooted, though I don't think that alone would hold up in court if it ever came to that.
When the support rep told the OP that they would "connect to my Thunderbolt and troubleshoot the audio problem", I think they were going by the standard "don't call tech support from the phone that's having the issue" practice.
Can they remotely connect to our phones ? I wasn't aware that they could.

Correct, that's what they said ("don't call tech support from the phone that's having the issue" practice.)
So should I still unroot to be safe before I call them or no....
What ROM are you using ?
Sent from my ADR6400L using XDA App
If you want to be on the safe side, make a nand backup, flash a stock ROM, call them, then restore the backup. I'll pretty sure they can't tell if you have a custom recovery.

Don't know how they do it, (simple user here) and not the first time I've seen this asked or answered. If you're bored jump on every TB forum your on and I'm sure you'll find your curiosity satisfied. Maybe it was on BAMF? I could care less how they do it.

Liquid AOSP 3.2.
I unrooted just to be safe and the tech rep never said anything and I got them to send me a new sim card and if that doesn't solve my problem (which I don't think it will), then they will send me a new thunderbolt.
When I rooted again after the phone call it wouldn't let me restore my rom and I got stuck in a boot loop. Luckily I had rom zip's on my sd card, so I installed one from scratch, reflashed cwm via rom mgr again, then it let me restore it.
Very weird, and I was terrified I jacked my phone up.

Hmm keep looking, I won't be at a pc till tomorrow maybe. But like I said I have no way to confirm only what I've read which is what I do. And that was second hand information. As most of this is. I'm really trying to remember because I know these site searching's are lacking at best.
I just recently used to work for at&t customer care and if vzw is anything like them, the only way they can maybe tell is if you have an unlimited data plan plus unofficial tethering app. Or if you send it in for warranty/Asurion replacement. Otherwise i don't really see how they could see in any way if it was rooted

That is understandable, thank you. Still gotta get to my pc. I know people have called in on their rooted devices for certain reasons and been called out only to deny. And of course unroot before going in. For whatever reason. Sticking to it.
That's why I asked what ROM. A support rep could simply tell the person to read them a version # that will be different than "stock".

First of all, edit the thread's title to something more descriptive, like "Problem changing baseband"
Did the NV2 Backup complete successfully? It's the main thing, without that say goodbye to your phone signal.
Weird that 45m timeout, I changed my P500's baseband in less than 10m I think... did you follow drnotor's guide entirely? Including the part of disabling LG modem and not touching the phone until it finishes?

Sorry for the bad title
If you have your nv2backup you could try flashing it over once again from step 1, maybe that works.
It worked. I stopped the program and run it again. My Phone is running again. The problem with error searching network on CM9 persists. The Baseband rechange doesn't bring the solution.
Now that you already have NV file if you use lgmdp always in emergency mode dont mather if you flash only bb or recovery or the entire rom but flash with phone already in emergency mode and lgmdp will not touch the nv file

Good tip. Next time I make it from emergency mode.
The stupid thing is that I risk a lot for nothing, cause the baseband didn't bring me something.

The new baseband was already on my phone, but I thought that maybe something went wrong the first time and therefore I get the "Error while searching networks" on CM9. After install it again the result remains the same.

I asked few times but nobody answered. I don't see it on Bug-List and so I thought it was the fault of my phone. I like ICS and JB but as I explained on other posts I live on the borderline to other countries and I cannot live with automatic search of networks, cause It can be really expensive for me.

As said above, you will have the bug as long as you are using the junky Froyo RIL stack. This issue exists on CM7 as well since they've "fixed" the stupid 128KB SIMs by reverting the RIL stack. Messing with baseband will not solve anything for you.
http://code.google.com/p/cyanogenmod/issues/detail?id=5182
Ask your operator to have roaming deactivated, best I can offer if you want CM9+. On CM7, the RIL can be switched back to GB, with CM9 this causes a force-close loop with the phone app -> no go.
Is there a way to check whether I have a Funny SIM Card or not? And in case I have, is it possible to let it change from provider and with which excuse?

Well, flash latest CM7, flash the attached ZIP and if your SIM does not get recognized, it is funny.
Thanks a lot.
I made all the steps and the SIM works. Now I have to hope that CM will revert the RIL to GB too, so that I can use CM9+.
You wrote that this Patch runs only on CM7 and not on CM9+. Is there in fact no chance to make a similar patch for the newer firmwares?
Yes maybe its a faulty rom.

Sure there is, however I am not going to recompile CM9 for this, it requires patching files, overwriting the libs is no longer enough, as said above.
Do you mean mik_os git changes in the above issue link?
Easier would be that CM changes back to GB RIL.
There is absolutely no support in the main thread so I decide to create my own thread. CDMA workshop is what's needed to get talk and text working, and QSPT gets data working, correct? If so, can I pay to have the phone flashed with just talk and text, and then get the data working my self or is there a certain process that's need to be done with CDMA workshop in order for QSPT to get the data working? Can anyone Enders this please?

Have you tried to manually program with CDMA WS?
The first time I tried it didn't work, and I listed my rez on Craigslist, but then, for some reason, I tried again and that time it worked. Just call up a P+ rep, and tell them you need the values for manually programming the phone.

I believe all that is on sprints end, and I know sometimes it could take an hour or two before your service is restored. How long ago did you change your #?
As far as updating your profile manually, I don't know, there may be a way. But I've never had to do that, as I've had the same number since 2004...search the forum to see if there's a thread about it anywhere.

You need to do a full/hard reset of your device.
*This will wipe all of your data/storage*
(doing this from memory, so the steps may not be in exact order)
1. Make a nandroid backup of your existing setup.
2. Backup all of your sdcard stuff to your computer.
3. Download msl reader and get your msl number.
4. Dial ##786# in your dialer, and enter your msl number when it asks for a password.
5. When the page loads, press menu and choose reset.
6. Once rebooted, do a profile and prl update and test your device.
7. Once verified as working, restore your nandroid and sdcard data.
8. Win.
This will wipe the provisions of your phone (as well as everything else) and reactivate your device on sprints network.

Hey guys,
I have a device which i need to unlock (screen pattern lock).
I have no details regarding it's google account/PIN or any other method that allows unlocking it without using the pattern.
I tried downloading aroma file manager that allows access to the password file and delete it, but when i tried to install the aroma manager (through recovery, from an sd card) i keep getting these errors:
e: footer is wrong
e: signature verification failed
is there any way to solve this?
i can't access the device, so i can't enable debugging mode and things like that...is there any solution, besides wiping everything back to factory settings?
thanks!

We have no proof of what you say, and its easy to lie on the internet. Also any way to help you will result in all data being deleted... Return the phone to the local authorities.
Also, lollipop implemented wipe protection so wipes will leave the the phone locked as well...
I actually have the same question. My brother passed away a year ago. His s4 is locked but I want to save his pictures that he has on there, so factory reset is NOT an option. Please help

Take it to the Verizon store, they should be able to help you in your circumstances. Just prove that you are his brother. BTW if this is true, I'm sorry you lost your brother

Thank you very much
Verizon will not help you at all and can not help you at all.
The local authorities are always useless.
The only way to bypass is with a nowipe tar. If you don't know what that is it's probably too much of a PITA to attempt.
