[Q] Install new Baseband 313 with CM7

Hi all! i wanna ask if it's possible to install a new baseband with CM7. I think not beacuse i've tried via smartflash but the phone doesn't boot in S/W update! Should i do a nandroid backup and then install it? Thanks for help!

Yes, do a nandroid backup before flashing the bb, cause the flashing will cause a fullwipe. so u can rollback after the flashing and everything will be fine again.
The only thing is that you have to use a different RIL when you use cm7, cause it cannot run the x20 RILs.
What do you mean the phone wont boot in S/W ?
pull the battery, hold vol-down key and plug in the usb cable without putting battery back in, then you can use smartflash.

here is a little tutorial how to use smartflahtool correctly:
http://www.lg-phones.org/how-to-flash-lg-optimus-2x.html
..when the flashing process is finished you can pull the cable and put the battery back in, to boot for nandroid restore. (wipe cache/dalvik additionally)

What i mean is that when you plug device in while holding volume down – you should see a software update message on screen.. but the screen remains black and the phone goes into a bootloop

i see. that could mean that the device is not getting enough power from the cable to keep on. do you use a usb port of a usb-hub or any other kind of lengthening?
what you also can try is holding the vol-down key when you plug in the battery, that should also boot into S/W mode.

Plugging battery everything worked! Thanks mate

You're welcome

[Q] can i flash without download mode?

Hi there,
Just out of curiosity, what will happen if I connect my Ace (switched on) to the computer, load the files in the Odin and press start.
Can I flash the phone without getting into the download mode?

I have a phone, which I can not get into the download mode. So that's why I wonder what will happen if I flash without getting into the download mode.

The ROM will not be flashed that is all

So that means if I have the correct rom files in Odin, either the phone will be flashed (if I have the download mode), or nothing will happen (if I don't have the download mode). Right?
Because when I press the button combination for the download mode. I didn't have any display on the screen. However, the phone can still be recognized by the computer and Odin.

It will work as long as the phone isn't on an os and the problem is the phone is gonna boot and then there might be problems as the os u are running will crash...If u are stuck at ace logo it might work
U know that tut that u pull the bat and press home+volume+power and insert the battery and nothing happens on the screen (Hardbricked ace) it's the same
But.....
DON'T TRY IF U DON'T NEED TO!!!OTHERWIZE U WILL ENDUP LIKE ME!

1.) nothing could happen
2.) could be flashed (very unlikely i would say)
3.) you get a very nice paperweight
I had the same Problem with the stock recovery. cant understand why (i already reached it months ago)...could be due to the wind direction
but seriously...why do you want to risk it? just do it like the "manual" says or, cuz you cant go in dlmode, leav it.

maybe I better leave it as it is. The system now is quite ok.
Thanks guys!

Most Likey no effect on the flash
But you could give it a shot

[Q] Is it bricked?

Phone locked up while using web browser. Turned it off. Pulled battery. Tried to restart. No powerup. Nada. It's rooted with Jocala's custom kernal on the stock, current-update ROM. CWM installed. Study these symptoms and comment on whether it is dead due to hardware or software fatal, unsolvable issues:
1. When I try to boot up by holding in power button and volume up button, nothing happens. It does not turn on and does not boot into recovery regardless of how long I hold those two buttons in.
2. When I try to do the factory reset trick of holding the volume up/down entire button pressed in (not power up or power down but the whole button pressed in) plus the power on button, the screen lights up with the SAMSUNG name in white, and then immediately the screen goes black and white letters up top read RAMDUMP MODE. Cause: Force Upload. That stays on forever and ever until I power off the phone or pull the battery, and the whole thing repeats if I try the process again.
3. I tried pulling the battery and holding in the power button for about 20 minutes and that didn't fix anything.
4. Booting by holding the volume-down button and power on boots into the "WARNING -- A custom OS can . . ." screen with the exclamation point in a yellow triangle , and I can use the volume up key to continue with the loading a custom OS, and when I do volume up, I get the ODIN Mode screen, the android robot icon and the words "Downloading . . . Do not turn off target!!" If I plug into my computer, the computer doesn't recognize the phone. When I plug it in with Kies turned on, Kies says it is trying to connect, but it never connects, even if I let it plugged into Kies for hours. I don't get a Kies error message, either.
I have tried all these tricks with SIM card in and SIM card removed. With MicroSD card installed and MicroSD card removed. I have tried spare batteries from my other phone that are good and fully charged. I have tried using different USB cables that work for data transfer on my other phone. Am I missing a trick? Is this patient dead on the operating table? Must I part with $175 to buy a new phone? Please, Android doctors, provide some patient consultation. Thanks.

I am going to assume you have the galaxy exhibit 4g t679? So when you plug it into your computer in Odin mode and then run the Odin program it isn't being detected? Do you have the USB drivers installed?

Click to expand...

Yes, current drivers are installed on the computer. When you say "then run the Odin program," what do you mean? My plugging in process was simply to get into the Odin Mode and then I plugged it into the computer. At that point, in Windows Explorer, the computer did not recognize that an external device was plugged in. I would normally get a new F and D drive showing when I plug a phone in.
I am not aware of what this "Odin program" is that you mentioned. Please elaborate. After my initial root process, I have used CWM to flash zips off the microsd card and have not been plugging it into the computer to do things, so I might be deficient in my knowledge of what to do with the computer when the phone is in Odin mode. Thanks for any insight you can provide.

You are going to have to search for a guide on how to use Odin. There is a link to download the program here:

I am getting some hope. But since I can't boot the phone, I can't get in to make sure USB Debugging Mode is selected. Will this prevent me from connecting to ODIN? I found the ODIN download and the recommendation to also download drivers for DOWNLOAD, and I'll do that. But will the USB Debugging issue cause me difficulty? I can't get to this until this evening, so that's why I'm asking rather than just trying. Please advise. Thanks!

Using Odin without ROM saved to internal memory?
Will I be able to use ODIN to fix the phone if I haven't yet saved the replacement ROM to the phone's internal memory? The instructions I see for using ODIN all seem to assume that the phone is working and booting up, and they start with the instruction to save the new ROM file to the phone's internal memory. Since I'm trying to restore a bricked phone, without having the ability to first copy the ROM onto the phone's internal memory, what are the steps I will follow upon opening the Odin software and connecting the phone? Thanks again for the input so far. Maybe I can save this bricked phone (my girlfriend's phone -- so I will look like a true hero).

OK i see your confusion. On the wiki there are two types of ways to return to stock. One is through recovery, which i am assuming you can not get into. The second is the Odin way. If you can get to recovery that would be safer. I think the way that works for me is take out the battery, plug in USB, hold volume up and insert battery.

Odin is going to flash the stock ROM to the phone. You don't need to copy anything to it. The steps you need to follow are in the link I posted to the wiki.

Odin failed, now now powerup or ODIN or recovery
Oh, no. The ODIN factory restore failed, the phone did not reboot, but instead the screen went totally black. I let it sit plugged in five more minutes and nothing. I can't power it on, I can't boot into ODIN or recovery. Seems dead. Is this the end of the line?

Yes you probably have a hard brick, so return to T-Mobile or JTAG are your options but what did Odin say. Please go through the steps you took to restore it. I have odined maybe ten times and never had a problem.

Won't power on at all. Dead forever?
OK, so it won't power up and won't boot to ODIN or to recovery. No combination of button pushing does anything. Nada. Black screen. Is there any final trick to try? Or do I throw it away? I already bought a replacement (it's my girlfriend's phone -- same as my Exhibit -- so if I can fix it, we'll have a spare)

Send back to Samsung. They will replace it for minimal charges.

Never seen this kind of brick before

So when I installed the TWRP app on the google play store and started it. It required me to rewrite my sd card or whatever so I went and ahead and did it. While my phone turned off still plugged into my computer via usb it started spamming the format windows on my computer. Like roughly 12 tabs opened up asking to format this drive. So I closed all the windows and re plugged in the usb and the same problem came up. And awhile all of this is going on the device is on but the screen is black and the back lights are on. Even when trying to restart the phone its the same problem stuck on black screen and the formatting windows keep popping up. It won't go to download or recovery mode it just stays on the black screen. This is my 2nd lg g2 I bought for business and I don't recall ever having this problem with my original LG G2. Anybody have any experience with this or a fix?

Yeah I've tried but the lg flash tool will give a error in the middle of flashing it
saying the phone is disconnected from pc, even though its still connected. It would go up to 25% then 60% then back to 25% in the middle of flashing then the error pops up.
Edit: Yeah while flashing the vs98024A kdz it will stop at 60% on the lg mobile support tool and it won't go past that. It'll just have the phone being disconnected from the computer error.

Is it safe to assume nobody knows how to fix this?

I have the same thing and got it the same way with goomanager .was installing recovery and after reboot I got black screen with backlight on but to logo no nothing... can't get to download mode because I can't power off the phone. I also get the format drives promt in windows (about 15 or so all with a different drive letter) one drive I can read and it contains a folder called image with files in it. that drive is write protected. at this point I will wait till the backlight kills the battery and hope I can get into download mode after it shuts down.
FYI: I did try the LG mobile support tool but it did not see the phone. would love some ideas....

instead of waiting for the battery to drain, try this:
1. Unplug the phone from charger/USB cable
2. press and hold the power + volume down buttons for a few seconds... let go of the buttons 2 seconds after you feel it vibrate.
3. hold the volume up, and connect the phone to your computer.
you should be in Download mode by now....proceed to flash the phone back to stock using the LG Flash tool.
Hope this helps.

I believe I have soft bricked/hard bricked my LG G4 h811 . Can anybody help me?

Okay so I'm a newbie to rooting. And I was on this step where I let the tool install some files to my phone and it said to unplug and pull battery, the next step said to hold power and - volume down button and release power when I see the LG logo while holding the - volume down after a second quickly hold power and - volume down to access factory data reset and settings. So it restored my phone back to factory settings and no root, the video said to try again but the problem is that my phone will power on anymore and is unresponsive when I charge it. So I took the battery out for a min. and the phone turned on but got stuck on LG logo and freezes then it shut off. I tried to boot it up again on LG logo screen, the corner it says Secure booting Error
Error code: 1009
MODIFIED!
And it froze and shut off. Now whenever I try to boot it up it gets stuck on LG screen and shuts off or when I'm in factory reset it freezes when I press yes. I put it into download mode and try to install the LG G4 stock kdz file but my computer couldn't connect with my phone for example, I plug my phone into the computer via USB but nothing, no sound and no charge now it won't turn on at all. I hope this wasn't too hard to understand and I'll greatly appreciate any kind of help, thank you.
.

I wonder if LG or T-mobile is pushing an anti-root tool that hard bricks the devices. My device was working fine until this morning after my alarm went off - Mind you, I have been rooted since the root came out. I unplugged the phone, put it in my pocket, and it got really hot, then it does the same as yours; except, my phone shows bootloader:unlocked when i try to reset it. So, yeah, you are hard bricked. No recovery from what I hear. U got a paper weight. I do not believe any of the G2 or G3 fixes will unbrick our devices. I think it may need a jtag.
