Strange problem with RIL and GB custom ROMs - LG Optimus 2x

I have Froyo v10d baseband and after flashing any custom rom when i try to match ril with baseband (with GetRIL) all goes wrong. Well not all but crucial thing. After reboot there`s no more screen with dialpad to enter simcard PIN so I cant get network signal. I`ve tried all 3 Django`s rom, 2 of Gueste and new Thanatos.
Sorry about english, I hope i`ve been clear enough.

Sorry guys I forgot to say that I install v10d ril whit GetRIL. After reboot there is as on attached pics.

Hi,
0823 BB is sometimes very problematic, and not suitable for everybody (cf second image).
I think that if you want to use latest custom roms, and especially v20o, you'd better flash v20m baseband, which has the same numeric name as yours but is clearly not the same. I personnally used v20l baseband without big problem, and I just upgraded to v20m one.
I just read that v20m baseband is not compatible with Cyanogenmod (only Froyo BB must be used), but flashing a BB is just a 5 minutes work.
You have all the BB you want in the Great Temasek shared folder here (in optimus p990 folder): http://www.mediafire.com/temasek
For V20m, you have for .fls files to flash, beginning with biggest file and following with decreasing size.
There is a how to text file in archive.

It's the same issue I had when trying to use GB RIL with CM7 (latest KANG).
I have the same baseband you have, and it works well with RIL 725 v10d.

With CM7 Kangs everything works fine.
So when I flash custom GB ROM can I leave RIL from him as on first attached pic 0725 v20l? Somewhere I read that different RIL cause more battery drain.

Why not simply try and test? can't say it for you, and changing Ril is fast...

I had the same issue.
I currently have v20M flashed through KDZ updater, so I have 725 v20m BB and I'm afraid to have radio problems with CM7.
I tried using V20l RIL and didn't work, but using v10d 725 RIL worked but I reverted to stock rom for now because maybe I'll have some problems.
If you tell me it's ok to use v10d 725 RIL I'll try CM7 again.
Cheers!

Its not just ok to use v10d 725 RIL, it is a must to use it. Why? CM7 isn't compatible with GB RIL. You can use GB BB but not GB RIL. It will cause unknown baseband if u use GB RIL.

Hello, I downloaded the V20M-Baseband.zip but there is no text to explain how to flash it.
Can anyone help?
Thanks

upgrading baseband

Hi,
was just about to upgrade the baseband on my 2x, but for some reason it's not working.
My old baseband was 725 and wanted to try BASEBAND 1120 - P990 ( SU660 Porting )
I downloaded SmartFlashTool_P990.exe + drivers and installed the 4 files in order from biggest to smallest.
When the LG logo started to flash (after each SW FLASH install), i removed and reattached to cable+"volume down" to install next file.
R375_SIC.fls
AENEAS_FW.fls
slb.fls
psi.fls
When I was done with the baseband flash, I installed lasted RC of [CM9][ROM][MAR07] Nova HD Plus.
Checked "about phone" and it still say I got baseband version 725
what went wrong?

If you read the first post carefully, you will find that the author describes that he has compiled with his old archive....but that has to be 823 normally. Anyway, if your communications and other radio related stuff is working alright....why think about the information in the BB column.
thanks, didn't notice that.
Still don't know why I was not able to upgrade to 823

This is not true, I think. It just states this for the update script in clockworkmod. The about phone should state something like 20111120
?
What does baseband do?
by changing your baseband you can possibly get better signal, better incall voice sound, but if you don;t suffer from any of those problems than don;t change it
bb
IF your BB and RIL mach, then you might get better batterylife.
Check your stock BB and ril. it must work best

And to match you RIL, there's a great app called GetRil .
Baseband and ROMs
Hi,
I have 725 baseband. Can I flash CM ROM or MIUI ROM?
Should I have a specific baseband before I flash a different ROM?

725 seems to be the best for cm 9 (at least for me ) , so i would keep it

No you don't, in some case the author of ROM specify the better BB, also you can use Get Ril to match ril and bb, this is usefull for battery life and best signal too

[Q] About Baseband and RIL

Hi
i have the 0725 baseband on my phone. As i understand, to archieve the best batterylife is to match the RIL with the baseband. I just checked my battery consumption and the signal is almost never green. To compare with phones from within the household, a wildfire S, Arc S and Ray all have a green bar.
So, i tried to change the RIL to the recommended 0725 (V10D Europe). My 2X grants permission, reboots, but the RIL is still the CM7 stock 0218.
What should i do? What am i doing wrong? Is it not possible to change the RIL?
Btw, Temasek Kang with vadonka kernel. I live in Denmark (Europe )
I think you are experiencing the /system r/w bug that's being discussed in the thread of the etana kernel, check it out.
Cheers
So thats it! Thank !
Is there any other way to change the RIL?
You can put another kernel for cm7 in there (like a older one) use getril then reflash the latest kernel or wait for a fix.
Cheers
Makes sense.
Thanks for the help

Hi,
I've got massive battery drain when mobile data is enabled with RIL (0218 - 10b) that comes with 7.2
Baseband is from v20q stock rom, and ril from 20q is not working.
Any recomended BB/RIL combination with this near (voodoo sound patch in kernel please) perfect ROM?
thanx,

thanx for nice intentions, but I've read that post months ago, and obviously didn't find the solution for this cm 7.2 ROM that refuses to work with RIL from 20q... because on stock 20q with BB and RIL from that same stock ROM no massive drains.
EDIT: OK I'll try froyo baseband and ril and hope for even better stability/performance than stock GB bb/ril combination..

I m using 521 bb and 218 cm7 default ril.
Or try 725 10d ril.
Works best for me.

"Months ago"? I doubt that as I created the thread 5 weeks ago
But I see you already found the answer, yes you need a Froyo RIL for the v20 GB Basebands for CM ROMs.

[Q] Help.....3G net work is not working

yesterday i flashed a rom
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1410662
After finish flashing. i found that the 3G network is not working....but the sim card is work. i can make a call or receive call ( that mean 2G is work), The icon of the signal near the battery , it show "H" but it did not have upload and download.
here are some informations of my phone:
Android version : 2.3.4
Baseband version: 1035.21_20110218
ril: v20s Europe
did i miss something or i do something wrong:crying::crying:
please help me
It seems, that you have an pretty old Baseband ("1035.21_20110218" which might be good for CM), but DM is stock-based.
If you flashed DM 1.2 the V20q baseband (0725) is recommended, because its based on V20q.
IIRC the 1.3 and 1.5 RC versions are based on V20s, so the V20s baseband would be recommended.
Please correct me if I'm wrong.
You can find out if your baseband and RIL are matching with the GetRIL app.
See fore more info the Complete Baseband overview thread

Mate,
until DM 1.3RC2 it was still the v20q sources and only the 1.5 series are all V20S sources....but u usually find the related RILs in the Aroma installer...Q,S,C RILs are part of the 1.5 series.
but the best way is to use GetRIL or LG RIL app to change your RIL to suit the BB

327 baseband- best ril?

I have o2x with 327 baseband with cm7 kang rom.
I have installed getril which shows ril baseband do not match.
I have problems with network at times too.
May i know which ril would be best for 327 baseband?
I tried changing rils but it didnt workout.
The baseband thread doesnot mention suitable ril for 327 bb
Thanx

dont worry about the GetRIL suggestion....you can see that some of the guys are using a BB+RIL combination which does not match as per the app....but it all depends on the network, voice clarity, mobile data and so on....
for example I was using, BB V20C Russian BB and 218 RIL for Hybrid ROM ( a great one for sure)from Stefan....so I think it does not matter if your needs are met....other seniors can correct me if I am wrong
Oh okay i also thought that the getril suggestions r nt that much imp.Thanx for confirming
Now i have changed my bb to 725 and using 725ril.Lets see how it goes.Also changed rom from cm7 kang to gueste 3.7!
Im not much satisfied with battery drain in gueste or any other roms...kang rom seems the best in terms of battery backup.
