[Baseband+RIL] 1035.21_20110530

hey guys,
first of all i have to say that i'm using cm7 and can't say anything about any lg froyo roms.
i've tested 0622 RIL + Baseband(0614) but i was unhappy with it, the battery life was very bad and the signal wasn't stable. so i decided to downgrade the baseband. now i installed ril + baseband from v10t korea update. i extraced the ril from phone after restoring the whole v10t update.
i hope it will be better nao. i will update this thread the next days and give you a feedback.
files are atteched!

Just flashed.
Data connection seems to work fine in France (maybe better than 622). Will try GPS and wifi later (I must work sometimes... ).
EDIT : GPS fix is OK (not worst than 6xx at least). The biggest problem is I can receive call but can't call another mobile phone

I just flashed this too,
came from 0405 > 0622 > 0530.
note : can't make any calls with this,
i checked settings and noticed that it cannot detect my network, and can't select my network too.

What about call sound quality ? i have problems with 614 and 622, the only perfect version is 502. But sound is a bit to low

any results?
hows the signals?battery?voice quality?
do you have a md5 tequila?

call quality is ok for me. 502 is based on korea rom for su660 too, this is why i'm trying 0530

hmm dont know if i should flash 530
622+622 ril was bad for me
ugly signal, bad voice quality
i am on back 502 and its perfect so far..

For me, sound is also too low with 502.

problem with 0530, it will not detect my mobile network, so i can't make outgoing calls.
reverted back to 0622.

for me 0530 is as good as 0502
cant tell yet about battery life...but voice and signal quality is much better than with 0622

will test tomorrow

For me, same problem, although I used 530 RIL you provided.I'm on CM7.1 RC1.
I've heard some french users complain before about such issue with 502 baseband, I don't know if korean BB fit our country...

No call for DJDroid, work on CM7! What the fu..?

RIL doesn't work with modaco fr19 rc2 refuses to take/make calls.

hi
Juste flash BB 530 + ril 530, i m on CM7
First feedback:
- reception is much better, i gain 2 barre ^^
- Data 3g,H or E is fast and stable no probleme for me
- Wifi ok fast and stable
- Audio is good like the 502 BB but too weak could be a little higher but better quality than the 606 or 614...
-GPS seem like 502 but i'm lost in campagne so i never have good satelite reception, i'll see later.
- Battery to early to make an opinion...
I think, this BB is like 502 but a little better in data and reception,more stable for me.
hope this could help

confirmed
baseband+ril runnning fine here
also battery life seems to be better.
i lost 9% with moderate use in 5 hours.thats pretty nice i think

It seems like this 0530 baseband + ril does not work in stock rom.
It only works in CM7?
any idea why?

@voyd : are you able to make outgoing calls to mobiles ?
As far as I could experiment, everything worked great, I could receive phone calls, SMS, but I could not call anybody on mobile (no sound)

Maybe it's gingerbread only BB/RIL?

Noise (Baseband?) problem

Hello,
I have a huge problem with my new LG 2x. I installed CM7 and everything went fine and I was quite happy about my new phone. Then I called someone and he complained about my terrible voice quality. Acutally it's not the voice qualitity, he can hear me clear but there's this static "signal checking" noise in the background - like when a phone is getting a call and lying next to your speakers. (I don't know if there is an English word for?).
I testet all basebands with it's corresponding RILs, the problem occured with all of them. Then I noticed that he can hear me perfectly when I put my speaker on while calling.
Now I went back to Stock with NVFlash on 10b - and updated via the LG update software to 10c (it game together with baseband 0405) - still there was this noise. I tried all basebands again - it seems to be better on 0503 ONLY. Still no great audio quality but at least not this noise.
Do you have any idea what I can do now? Is my device broken? It's really unuseable this way.. and I heard that most people are able to use CM7 with the newer basebands (0503, 0622) - am I the only one who is not?
I'm on O2 Germany on 2G (can't get more than EDGE here) if that matters.
I really hope you can help me
I love this device but I need to make calls with a goddamn phone...
Thanks in advance,
tony
Edit: I didn't test the "0622 Gingerbread only" Baseband because I read somewhere that this shouldn't be used.

noone here at xda? oO

Your phone probably have a defect microphone. You should get it repaired.

i have exactly the same problem (eplus-base)
but the microphone can't be defect, cause i have the problem only at home
everywhere else it's fine..
i think it's the low signal strength..
(cm7 standard ril and baseband 1802)

I live in Finland, operator is Saunalahti. I have exact same, problem. Only baseband is 502, which won't give "electronic noise" to people who i am calling...
I don't have any idea, why it is so. I have tried, basebands 622, 614, 606. Always same "electronic noice".

I also have the same problem and I think that there is allot more people with the same problem. In my case it gets really bad with any Gingerbread based rom.

annoying noise - help please
It's not a hardware fault as it sounds perfect in froyo ROMs

I have the same problem after installing cyanogen mod. Did you find a solution ?

[Q] Why is changing baseband and ril necessary?

I have just ordered an Optimus 2x, and thought I'd get some base knowledge about the phone before it arrives.
I currently have a ZTE Blade, and have used many custom ROMs, so am familiar with android and most of the concepts. One exception to this is flashing / changing baseband and ril settings. I can see lots of threads with downloads and how to guides, but none of them seem to answer the following questions.
1. Why do we need to make these changes at all? What is special about / wrong with LG phones? I've never had to make any such changes to my Blade.
2. As the baseband and ril combination required seems to change by country, does that mean if I take my phone out of the UK I'll need to change the baseband and ril for each country I visit?
Many thanks!

No you don't need to do that, baseband and RIl are different decause in each contry there is not same update and baseband are different,
There is not 1 baseband compatible with one country it's just because update need other baseband than before.

Hello!
The main difference between the basebands are the versions.
The Phone (talking about a p990 for Europe/UK) will most probably come with a 0725-baseband (the Version from 25th of July) the newer basebands (0823 and 0824) are either optimized for a different region (i.e. 0823 seem to be almost the same as 0725 – but came out in Canada) or are for a different model (0824 is for SU660).
Out of the box there is no need to change the baseband, but when you flash a custom rom you might need a different baseband – i.e. Cyanogenmod(CM) 7 and MIUI need a baseband that is compatible and won’t work with the newer basebands that a made for the stock Gingerbread-ROMs from LG.
CM7 by the way comes out of the box always with RIL 0218(that is/was the very first version) – and you need to flash a RIL corresponding too your baseband (i.e. 0725) after flashing a new custom rom – in this case it is a good tip is to install the app "LG RIL Version" from the market.
So that said – now a few words to the versions themselves…
I tried 0725, 0622 and 0823 – 0824 didn’t work. Some people say that BB/RIL 0622 gives best battery life and the German forum www.handy-faq.de recommends it. I personally use now the BB/RIL 0823(Canada) which is similar to the 0725 – but gives me slightly better reception indoors.
…some are always on the hunt for the newest version and use 0824 which is for SU660 (the Korean version of the 2x).
So again the only real need is if you get a phone with preinstalled Gingerbread and you want to install CM7 or MIUI - or the other way around - you get a phone with Froyo and want to install a GB-Custom-Rom based on stock rom (i.e. topogigi oder Modaco).
If the baseband works on you phone/rom-Compo it should work everywhere and there is no real need to change anything except in cases noted above or in hope for a little bit better signal/reception with a newer version or better battery life etc.
Hope that’s helped a little…

Thanks for the great explanation.... so i understand right, BB comes with the individual phone, as part of the hardware and could not be changed? onthe other hand, RIL comes with OS (ROM)?

You actually can change your BB with a tool named Smartflash, but it requires a full wipe of your phone and you need your computer to do it.
RIL comes with the ROM indeed, for example CyanogenMod comes with 218 RIL, and you can change your RIL easily with the GetRIL app.

BaseBand is a piece of the low-level software that handles the "radio" in your phone. Radio in here means components for WiFi, GSM (wherever really GSM, or UMTS, or HSPA, etc.), BlueTooth, etc. This is quite important piece of soft and not easily accessible, at least on LG (as far as I remember on HTC Desire it could have been flashed via recovery). For different countries there could be different BBs. Even for different operators I believe. This is why some of them work better for some particular people and worse for other.
Now, the RIL is a Radio Interface Library - a piece of software which comes with the system (ROM) and it gives you a "bridge" between system (kernel?) and Base Band. For the phone to work in an optimal way you need matching version of the BB and RIL. If you mix one BB with some different RIL your phone may not work (in the sense that you will not be able to make any calls or connect to the WiFi or whatever) or work in a faulty way.
Now, you'll get a phone with some BB already on-board and personally I do not think there is any need for you to change it to any other version - if it works then fine. But if you wish to flash some custom roms then they will come with some RIL and the best thing to do is to change this RIL to the one that matches your BB. There is GetRIL application on the market which makes it a piece of cake. For example: CM7, Temasek Kangs were coming with the 218 RIL which I was always changing to 725 RIL with the help of the aforementioned app as soon as I flashed new Kang. In fact the GetRIL application makes it even easier - if you are on CM7 rom then there is "keep RIL after flashing" option which automatically keeps the RIL in the version you want.

I have my phone with ICS and BB 1035.21_20110606 and i have some problems getting wifi signal when im about 5-7 meters away from the router, (Its because the walls or is my baseband?) if i chance my BB it will give me a bit more signal?

Well, the only way of checking is probably to flash new BB ... but maybe first you can check how some other equipment behaves, e.g. some notebook or netbook or maybe some other mobile phone (e.g. of your friend)?

More than likely not.
Does your router have several (external) antennae? If yes, point them in 3 different directions, that'll probably solve your reception problems with devices with only one antanna (like the O2x). And of course, how many walls and what kind of material they're made of matters a lot. Sometimes the only solution is to have more access points.
EDIT: Btw, this is a good app for analyzing signal variations etc. in your environment.

Hello together,
maybe someone can give me advice ... I just found out that my baseband is the apparently very old version 218 (the baseband, not the RIL).
I face serious battery drain problems with the latest ICS ROMs, and now I have been told that changing the baseband might actually help the issue. Seeing that this is quite a thing to do, I wonder if it really makes sense.
Can anyone give me a hint?
i am on T-Mobile UK, using an ICS ROM, my current baseband is 218.
As far as I read from different threads, it could be an option to switch to 725 - is there a chance my battery life might improve?

Hi guys, it seems that there is something wrong with the latest getril app as it won't successfully install the matching ril after successful download. Does anybody know how to manually save the RILs? Temasek has the RIL on his mediafire folder so there's no problem with the source.

[Q] New LG o2x in Canada - frustrated with stock ROM. Options? Suggestions?

Hi everybody!
I see here a lot of people from Europe but I'm in Canada and hope for some help.
I just got LG o2x and trying to use it with cheap data plan in Ontario through 7/11 Speakout.
First problem - they filter traffic so I have to use proxy. And even then phone is really slow and sometimes even market has to be reloaded couple times... My connection drops sometimes inside the factory I work in and then doesn't pick up... I guess you know.
I've read about people saying that this phone has great hardware but poor software
I already rooted my phone (to get autoproxy running).
Now I need to put custom ROM and kernel...
That's where it gets confusing. I have Barnes&Nobles Nook Color with CM7.1 on it. And I like it. Also I have Acer A500 with stock HC3.2. But I'm still dummy in Android
From what I understand I can put CM7.1 (Thanatos2x v5.1 or Temasek's Kang), MoDaCo. Right? Any other suggestions? But then there is tonns of kernels... How to choose? I just need basic features to surf net and create hot spot for my kids tablets
And another question is BASEBANDS. What are they and should I change it or not? I'm in Canada but getRIL says I have:
RIL 0725 (V20I, Italy)
Baseband 1035.21_20110725.
Thanks for any suggestions or pointing to right direction!
Aleks

You can flash CM7 temasek's KANG on your phone (link in sig)
A kernel I would recommend you to use is vadonkas ETaNa Kernel. (link in sig) It's a great kernel with good performance and battery life.
You don't necessarily have to change your baseband. Only when you really have problems with signal or call quality. A baseband is more or less a driver which regulates signal etc. Changing your BB requires a full wipe, therefore I wouldn't recommend it. If you do have bad signal, you can mostly solve this problem by installing a matching RIL with your BB. GetRIL app will tell you which ones match and which one don't. If this doesn't help, then you should change your BB.

Or, you can read a bit and not spam the fora..

[Q] 3G not available after turn off WiFi

This is my first post, so first of all, hi everyone. I'm having a strange issue with CM9 by Owain94, as many others as I have seen in multiple threads (even with ICS Nova), but no solution is provided nowhere until now.
After certain time connected to WiFi, at the moment of disable it, 3G is not available (signal bars stay greyed, browser and mail apps fails to connect, and so on). Only toggle between airplane mode and normal mode, or reset the device, solves the problem. I tried multiple solutions (GSM Auto PRL vs WCDMA prefered, disable automatic time and date, multiple combinations of BB/RIL) but none is working for me.
Has anyone been able to solve this problem?
If helps, this is my actual configuration:
CM9 Unofficial by Owain94 build 33
Baseband 313
RIL 405 V10c Spain
Coming from Ultra Wipe (term is mine): back to Stock Froyo, root, update to CM7, update to CM9
Thanks in advance.

Same problem here. I have to turn on 2g and then back to 3G to make it work. But after a while you get used to it.

No solution, but a workaround:
Try Toggle2G app.

Well, I'm on CM7.2 RC1, but I suppose there is a Power control widget too. If you try to add it, there are some actions you can change - like "WiFi enables 3G" (3G when WiFi is disabled), but there are more.
I'm thinking if that can be a workaround (or even a source of problem, but if it does even on the stock rom..).

Thanks, I'll try until a solution will be provided.

This afternoon I'm discovered some interesting things. A few days ago, I tried through the service menu (aka *#*#4636#*#*) the GSM Auto PRL solution given by others, but it didn't work for me, probably because I was restarting the phone just after select the cited network mode. But todat, thinking about (arrjj) I'm discovered that after restart, the phone backs automatically to the previouos WCDMA Preferred mode (I remember that behavior from old days with CM7).
So I changed the network mode, wait for the phone to reconnect prior left the service menu, and voila!! 3g connectivity did not drop after connect to a wifi network for a while.
Because CM9 does not have an option in Network Settings to set the preferred network mode (as had CM7), neither the service menu appears to save this information in a persistent way, I tried to find out where such information was stored. Multiple locations appear to do it. First is /system/build.prop:
#ro.telephony.default_network=0
This value stands for the network modes supported by Android:
0 - WCDMA Perferred
1 - GSM Only
2 - WCDMA Only
3 - GSM/WCDMA (auto PRL)
4 - CDMA / EVDO Perfered
After uncomment the line, change the value and reset the phone, 3g drop still occurs (service menu stay stuck on WCDMA Preferred)
Next site to looking for is the database /data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases/settings.db. Whitin it, there is a table named secure in which you can found a data row like the following (column headers are drawed for clarity):
id | name | value
-------------------------------------
84 | preferred_network_mode | 0
So next step was change it. From a shell console, I ran the following commands:
$ su
# cd /data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases
# sqlite3 settings.db
sqlite> update secure set value="3" where name="preferred_network_mode";
After reset the phone, 3g drop still occurs (same symptom as earlier).
So none of these solutions are working for me, neiter individually nor in conjunction. What is clear, at least for me, is that the data connectivity drop occurs due the default network mode (WCDMA Preferred) in my rom (CM9 by Owain94 - build 35), and the impossibility of change it persistently.

Devs are tracking the bug, it seems to be an issue with routing network process, when wifi is disabled, there should be a route modification to enable gsm network, and that fails for an unknown reason yet (a daemon isn't properly launched, or dies too early).
This process wasn't used in GB, that's why you don't have this bug with 2.3 roms.

Switching off WiFi works fine for me on RC's CM9SK3 and ironkrnL. It takes like 5 seconds till im fully connected to H. 0725 BB + 0725 V10d RIL. Vodafone Germany is my carrier.

Hey,
i had and have exactly the same problem. The combination

Curious, because I'd never had the problem on CM7.
After a few months uninstalled (those kept on CM9), I've also discovered that the problem emerges when JuiceDefender joins into the equation. After stop it, data comes back again successfully.
