Problem after Baseband update - LG Optimus 2x

Hi,
my cellphone can't connect to the network anymore and my baseband shows unknown after my latest baseband update. I already tried to go back to older baseband made a factory reset and tried different ril's, but nothing helped.
I searched this forum and the web but found nothing useful. My IMEI is still intact and my battery icon is also working. If someone could help me, i would appreciate it.

Did you flashe a matching RIL ? Which version of baseband are you using now ? It happened to me when I did flash a wrong RIL on my existing baseband. (622 RIL over 725 baseband for "stablity" - lol).
Fortunately I had a nandroid backup (couple of them always, just in case), revert to it , and got my signal back.
Perhaps you should try again with a complete wipe ( data, cache , dalvik cache and yes, system) and try again?

Thx for the reply, i tried all of that. But the next morning i was so tired of trying to fix it, so i just brought it back to the store and i already got a new one, but thx anyways.

Hello!
For all others searching...
LG RIL Version or Get RIL apps from the market should help.

[Q] MIUI Network error, also settings are not being saved.

Hi guys,
I have just flashed MIUI and my god it looks good
I do have a few problems, I can not pick up any networks (I'm on vodafone uk). When I try to find Network Settings I get: "Call Settings Error Network or Sim card Error."
I hope it is an easy fix I have tried leaving the phone for a few minuets which hasn't helped and I have tried rebooting the phone. When I reboot the phone it goes back I think factory settings as it asks for my Google account information plus Date format.
I used the following guide to install MIUI:
http://www.theandroidsoul.com/galaxy-s-miui-rom
If you think I have a better chance to get this solved on another thread / forum section let me know and I will re-post it
Thanks.
well ideally this thread would be better off under the 'MIUI general, or the MIUI development' but considering you already posted dont worry
anyway it sounds like your IMEI is corrupted, have you checked this by dialing *#06# ??
if its all 0's or a complete different IMEI to is was before hand, just apply the efs backup you should of made before starting the flash.
Well my IMEI is fine, well it gives me a number which I think is correct But I didn't apply a efs back up not sure what that is.
If I want to reinstall MIUI would I need to flash back to 2.2 then flash to MIUI since they keep saying you need to be on 2.2 before you begin the flash.
I was on Darky's 2.2 before I flashed just fancied the change
no, you are on MIUI now right ? so just reflash the ROM again, and make sure you are on the latest kernel too.
if that dont work, try formatting cache / data / datadata / system / dalvik cache, then again, reflash the ROM
Yes I am currently on MIUI.
I used the following:
speedmod-kernel-k13c-500hz.tar
cm7-galaxys-initial-kernel.tar
galaxys-efsbackup.zip
MIUI-RC7-1.4.29.zip
Maybe some of these files conflict with the newer version of MIUI?
they shouldnt conflict.
did you try the steps in my last post ? if so how are things now ?
Cheers for your help. I flashed it back to 2.2 stock then went to MIUI seems to be working now, strange but I am happy

Battery stuck at 100%

Hi,
I updated my cm kang today and everything was working fine. I rebooted my phone and my battery percentage went from 4% to 100%. and it's stuck on it.
When i put the percentage mod of in CM7 i see a battery icon with "?" in it.
I tryed the following things:
Wipe data/factory reset
Wipe cache partition
Wipe Dalvik Cache
Wipe Battery Stats
Fix Permission
Installed a older kang but nothing worked.
I searched on google and some people fixed this problem by getting a new battery.
Has anybody else had this problem?
Thanks
100% without charging forever. its my dream
I've had the same problem. Check baseband and RIL. Try to use program "GetRIL" [market] and check is your baseband and RIL are the same. If not then you can download 'recomended' RIL and reboot.

Thanks, i restarted my phone and now the market is gone, baseband is unknown. A reinstall of the rom,and wiping everything,reinstall of baseband didn't work.
I'm gonna install the stock rom tommorow using smartflash. Hope that works

changes on IMEI ? *#06# ?
if you lost your IMEI try this LINK
Infinite power!!!!!
Baseband is always the same, no matter what rom you install BUT when you are changing a rom then "RIL" can change and that's why your problem was created after you install a new kang.
Now my baseband is 824 and its the best I've ever had. Good luck.

You have flashed a gb ril in cm7. Cm7 supports only froyo ril.
In fact if you don't do that, the rom is unable to read battery voltage and baseband version.

Don't think that is the problem because i have done that many times and it always worked fine. I found out today that i couldn't send sms, if i tryed i would loose my connection etc.
Restarted my phone and now it doesn't start anymore, it's in a boot cycle lol.
Gonna install stock rom now
hmmm.. i wouldnt actually change that it would be like a dream to have an all the time full battery

I repeat, CM is only compatible with froyo rils. Aremcee said that.

BP PANIC!! :(

i'm now hopeless!
aftrer of several attempt.. still BP panic persist..
this happens when i switched the baseband to telus believing that it would restore my imei and baseband since m using the telus mod..
but nothing happened so i decided to flash back to eclair.. but after the flash.. as soon as the phone boots... the BP panic... it just restarts the phone on an on..
even i flashed so many times.. the problem still persist..
how to fix this.. m really hopless now..
i could access the OR but even if i flashed other baseband still there..
is there any work around with this..
all help would be appreciated...
Why are you posting this kind of stuff to development section?
What is your current OS?
Type *#06# in dialer. What do you get?
Try flashing stock rom (2.2.1 froyo sbf, non-service version (http://and-developers.com/sbf:milestone221)). See if it helps.
If not try rooting and update to kabaldan's 7.2.0 RC1. See if it helps.
If not go to settings -> device settings -> baseband selection and make a selection (do not change baseband through openrecovery anymore with this rom). reboot and see if it helped.
Have you recently acquired your device (Motorola Milestone A853?) as used? Did it work flawlessly when you got it?
Have you backed up pds while the phone (cell radio) was functional?
You have an unbelivable amount of problems with it. Perhaps you should stop modding.
i can only have the phone functional if it is nandriod but the imei is unknown and the baseband..
i'll try the non service version.. m currently downloading it now..
i acquire the milestone flawlesly... except for the camera which i have functional when i flashed back to eclair..
i tried to applied cm mod7 plenty of times but i got stock to bootload..
i never have a problem with my other milestone.. this one that i have m planing to sell it as soon as i fixed it..
i'll never try to flashed baseband again using OR..
i hope the non service version would help...
yes i have a back up of the pds.. i have backed it up using rood xplorer.. i have it in my sd card
m really hopeless now.. no stock room is working..
i downloaded almost everything on and-developers.. nothing works...
is there any way that i can fix this??
hopeless.. is this beyond repair??

[Q] Problem with Slim ICS 3.5

Hi guys,
i have been using Krarvind's Slim ICS 3.5 for about 10 days and I absolutely loved it. I have just updated to 3.6 which caused my phone to bootloop
So, after an hour or so of labouring and trying to work my way back in to it i'm now back on 3.5, but I have absolutely no signal/3G coverage. Wi-Fi works no problems, just no signal!
I went in to the APNs and there is nothing there - I tried to save a new APN and it wont let me - has anyone encountered this before?
Thanks in advance
Haven't experienced this myself but a few things come to mind...
First would be to check if you imei number correct? If not you would need to restore this from a backup.
If IMEI number appears correct then I would try flashing the modem again or a different modem. Modems found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1158783
If this doesn't work you can try flashing 3.5 base and essentials again.
If that doesn't work search the threads and google or hope someone else can give you an answer. If you don't find any help then as a last resort you can flash a stock rom with Odin although I'm sure there must be an easier way.

I've had a similar problem, the updating to 3.6 just went wrong. No bootloop but loads of FC.
My solution has been going back to recovery, do a full wipe (wipe data/restore factory settings) and install 3.6 again. Everything seems to work now but I have to re-install and configure all my apps... :-(
Hope it helps...
Check in About > Phone
Under baseband does it say UNKNOWN ?
this happened to me once, need to reflash the modem. No need for wipes etc

I have your s problem and dont know what i will do. If you can. Please help me/
i have the same problem with my p880
I had the same problem...
In my case, as far as i can tell is hardware related.
The connection (imei and baseband) returns only if i use brute force, and start to press the phone very hard near the edges, near the the sim. .But they disappear if i turn off or reset the phone...

Is hard to take pictures because this is not a tutorial, i press different parts every time i lost my imei, until it works. What i do is pressing really hard (even bending a little the phone) everything above the battery, especially the sim card holder. Sometimes take 5, 6 , 7 attempts until the signal returns. When the phone turns on wait a little, because takes a few minutes until the signal returns.
I have kind of the same problem, but with slight differences: if I restart the phone, most times than not I get the signal back (at least for a few more hours) and using Zaiben's RC17 ROM it manages to get the signal back by itself after a while, no reboot needed. What I've found to be a "hack/solution" for this problem is to use the app Tasker to change network mode from 3G to 2G when the screen turns off. It appears than while in 2G this problem doesn't present itself...
@sergiohinniger apparently your brute-force method kinda works for me as well.
My phone started losing IMEI and baseband version after I replaced the audio jack and "small" PCB (the one with USB - now I'm back with original one). I then re-chcecked all connectors and coaxial cable, but the issue persists.
I think it works after few reboots with pressure on the back, so I believe that most likely it's caused by some bad cennectors. I have no idea though what to do with that Help, anyone?
It's true, with Zaiben or any stock roms the signal returns far more easily and sometimes resists the reboot. But now i have a new problem, the mac address, even when the signal returns, stay 00:00:00:00:00:00. I can only fix with a mac spoof app. This problem doesn't happen when i use custom roms, but the 3g signal is harder the return.
Some news, bad news
I have asked some repairers and here is their answer:
It's baseband file problem, if you have original Nandroid backup then it might help otherwise you can say bye bye to it

basically, the baseband/IMEI file is damaged due to flashing rom, if you dont have origianl file, there is noway to save it

Need Help "LOST IMEI and Baseband Unkonwn"
I was using Euporia 5.0.1 on LG 4x
I received update notification and I downloaded Update.zip ( which included to 5.1)
By mistake i flashed the zip directly from CWM ( without Formatting any partition )
after restarting there was no IMEI
Following things I have tried
1) Trying to flash Original V20C KDZ. via LG Flash Tool. ( I think it checks for IMEI , and that's why stuck in between)
2) Use LG Software Update tool. ( also can't progress with IMEI)
3) Flashed Original V20c Flashable zip from CWM (But it didn't restored my IMEI)
4) Contacted LG Service Center, and They say You need to change whole Motherboard. ( I was Shocked to know that )
:crying:
If anybody went to same problem. and resolved .
Please Guide me.

A repairer told me that some rom might contain RIL or baseband bugs that accidentally **** up our IMEI partition/files, so if you have NANDroid backup then try to restore it
