2.3.6 from samfirmware.com the zip file is called JWB_JW2_JW1(stock rom)

are u flashing from 2.3 direct to 4.1? or u make a pit stop at 4.0 in da middle?
if yes then u should lost ur imei number (causing to lost network), try see on da setting>about fone, did u see ur imei number there?
if no, then u should turn back to 2.3 (pick ur own firmware) and flash thru odin. after flashing, retrieve ur imei in /efs folder.
or if u dont format ur internal sd before, there should be folder named efs backup with a zip file inside of it.extract it n paste it to folder /efs by override da old one.

Do ur sim provider needed u to unlock ur sim or fone?
if no then try to take out sim first, and put it back, n make sure da imei number not fake. sometimes when we flash new firmware or version, da new imei overlap with da old one (rare case unless da owner himself change it)
also make sure u already setting ur apn info in mobile network

Need Baseband for LG Thrill

Guys,
Tried to install the GB on THrill and it was installed successfully and only was getting 3G speeds. In the process of installing GB, there is a part where we need to update the baseband to something and since I didn't like it, I reverted back, But I am getting only Edge where ever I am going. Earlier I get H and H+ on AT&T. Anyone knows where I can get the baseband file for LG Thrill so that I can install.
Any advice is appreciated as well.
Guys one of our guys found the baseband for LG Thrill. Please check the post
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=19440931&postcount=48
Great Thanks to him..
Try installing thriller only thing I can suggest, I have gave my warning and said wait for dev supported gb. When I had the Atrix installing the leaked gb caused some bricks and unforseen complications, like not being able to revert back.

UPDATE
if you download lgmobile update tool the lg mobile support tool pull your sim card out and connect it to the pc lg mobile support tool says there is an update to the phone i didnt go through with the whole thing but it may be the key to us being able to copy down our baseband
Were you able to get the baseband back?

[TOOL & HACK] unlock your SIM FOREVER (ICS & JB)

Hi guys, I understand that some of you are unhappy with this sim lock because you want to test the latest JB leak . so here i ve a solution for you.
DO IT AT YOUR OWN RISK !!!​
Precaution:
-* don't use voodoo app after using this mod or any other mod, (if you want use other mod restore your original efs file).
-** Before to update to a new build (like the coming stable JB) restore your original efs.
*, **, in the case you got the phone unlocked you can always use my mod to unlock it :good:
HOW TO UNLOCK
- First you need to backup your "EFS FILE" in safe place.
- you must be in unlocked stock firmware like BLG8 (using voodoo app + libsec-ril.so (mike1986 fix))
- unzip the attached zip "efs.zip"
- copy the files (.nv_core.bak, .nv_core.bak.md5) to your EFS file
- reboot and enjoy !!!
NOTE: applying this mod will not change your imei.
Backup & Copy & Past & Reboot ....easy
This MOD will remove the lock completely.
Don't tell me what i did because SAMSUNG ......is UNHAPPY
JUST CLICK ON THANKS

"before backup this efs"

[Q] Help me please

I flash slimbean 4.2.1 last night. Smooth but I get 24+hrs no service.
I check my imei and get this just. What should I do??
Sent from my GT-I9000 using xda premium
did you checked your Baseband version in settings-> about phone: Baseband?
If it is unknown, then try to flash a modem on top. Depending on what rom you came before, SLIM does not provide a modem within its rom.zip.
And what imei is showing in settings->about phone->status: IMEI?
a number beginning with 0049xxxx or something like that is only a pseudo imei and you have lost your original imei (do not post your complete emei here for safety issus)
You Must Install Stock ROM ( 3 Files ) and when you install 3 files ROM , Every things Should be OK.
To get the imei back: yes.
But if the IMEI is ok, flashing a modem should be enough....
Thank guys. But my phone brick yesterday because of too much flashing.. And now i'm using gamerom .. Thanks for your help

A phone can not brick because of too much flash, but it can be brick, the wrong flash.

Can only flash specific ROMs

Hi, i lately unlocked my SGS to use it with my SIM card (got it from my cousin, she had it on contract with other SIM)
Flashed SAUROM, had no problems with it, till it somehow didnt show anything on the notification drawer (no icons for activating/deactivating data, w-lan, bluetooth, etc. and no notifications, it just was blank), well, reflashed it then, it worked again, but then i wanted to change ROM to a 4.2 ROM, and thats where it somehow went wrong, now i only can flash CM, AOKP and AOSP ROMs (only tried up to ICS/CM 9) but they work without trouble...yet i cant install any MIUI or stock/touchwiz ROM anymore
I even cant restore a nandroid backup, the message i get is in the 2nd attachment
Also trying to get back to stock via ODIN and following files:
CODE_I9000XXJVU_CL851880_REV03_user_low_ship.tar.md5
MODEM_I9000XXJVU_REV_00_CL1092175.tar.md5
GT-I9000-CSC-MULTI-OXAJVU.tar.md5
wont work either, message in 1st attachment
Now, i really dont have any plan what went wrong or how it went
Hope one of you guys gets it :fingers-crossed:
