[MOD] CM7 update Baseband RIL

It came to my attention from Tayutama in the CM7 nightlies thread that alot of people's problems with CM7 is issues with the new baseband we have all upgraded to. I went ahead and tested the newer basebands RIL with CM7 and voila! alot of bugs have been fixed and everything is running *MUCH* better now.
Edit:
Paul posted a patch for this awhile ago that I didn't realise, heres the link:
RIL Update
Hope it helps you, cause it surely helped me.
Credits to Paul for the patch.

could you elaborate on the specific bugs resolved by this?
Thank you.

does this change the baseband then? or does it just fix issues with baseband 405?

Thanks a lot.
Will i have to run this fix everytime i upgrade to a new nightly (or stable)?

This does not change the baseband, what it does it update the RIL in CM7 to be more compatible with the 405 baseband.
Thanks a lot.

Unfortunately, yes. Until cm_arcee decides to update his baseband and the reflect the source changes in CM7, we have to keep using this.
I can't determine how many bugs its solved since I only applied the fix an hour ago, but operation seems much smoother and not as many *hiccups*.

you can probably use this as well, it does essentially the same (flash the lge_ril.so matching the 0405 baseband)

Flashed the RIL and my first experiences seem faster and more stable. Thanks for the hint!

cant flash the RIL, inst. aborted.....

Hi,
I can't flash booth zip files(modaco/XDA). I'm getting a error(bad).

Hey dudes, the zip file is incomplete - the update-binary and update-script is totally missing...
Interesting is the libraries are same on size but different inside. So where you get it?

i've manually put the lge-ril.so and also the libril.so from Fr15 inside my CM /system/lib.
3 hours the phone is running without reboots, freeze, loss of sounds or problems of any kind.
Without this fix I experienced a lot of sleep of death and frequent loss of sound.
Hope this can help
Here is what I've done

i sould stay with the atrix as its newer only thing the razr has is more internal storage as for the roms you can flash any of them really but i would stick with the newer roms.

Honestly, there really isn't. Each rom has its own little quirky issues.
PAC has no gps and a goofy Hangouts crash, wifi doesn't like to connect after the screen comes on (turn off then back on)
AOSPA works fine for some, not for others, no wifi for some
Slim has no gps, radio signal is bad, random wifi disconnects (fix like PAC usually, sometimes needs reboot)
CM10.1 gps...
All may have occasional lag, wifi issues, gps issues, random bluetooth issues, no camcorder, no HDR camera -- regular and panorama work
Its hit or miss at the moment. One nightly will be fine, next has crap battery, next has better battery but image banding...
None of them suck, but they might not be for you if you dislike development roms that may be incomplete or have a bug or two. Really depends if the bug is a deal breaker or not.

I still go back to clean ROM or the 4.1.2 mex jb ROM everything works and the batt life is a lot better . Also you can install cwm through ROM manager in the play store . Just use the photon q version . I have been able to flash every ROM with it . Make sure you back up b4 you start installing ROMs .

XXLQG roaming only...

I installed the Italian XXLQG firmware, but it only shows me roaming. Data won't connect at all. any ideas? In about device, the build number is correct but the baseband still shows XXLQE.

Yea, I gone back to the LQE for now... may try the Argentia fw tomorrow.

Go to CWM and format everything from mount menu (preload/system/data... everything).
This will delete your ROM and then go to the Odin.

I have built a XXLQG rom with all italian files except CSC that comes from XXLQE instead of the specific italian one.
It solves the roaming issue and you can benefit of XXLQG performance improvements.

Sounds interesting. will you upload to dev host maybe? Will I need to install the firmware first through odin?

I don't know where to upload it.
You just install the tar file with Odin (like all other stock JB roms).
It's full stock, not rooted.

I wasn't able to find working link also. There is workaround,but is pain in the b....Process would be to return to stock 2.36 xxjw4 via Odin,root your device again,make backup of efs folder(imei number is there,phone won't work without it),flash stable CM10.1 to change partition layout,then what ever you want.Most of the roms don't change modem,modem stays after flahing roms....I would rather wait for working link or search for them deeper,but that's me

Flashing ICS and above changes the modem to JVT, so even if you do flash JW4 stock that's changed as soon as you flash CM9/CM10.1
However WD40 very kindly uploaded a version of JW4 in the modems thread:

[Q] HTC One: from Sense to Stock android

Hello there,
I just unlocked, rooted and installed on my HTC One, a stock android custom rom ( [ROM][m7]Android 4.3 JWR66V Google Play Ed. - Rooted/Busybox/Odexed/Deodexed (8/6/13). Link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2341395.
The problem now is with the 3G connection, the mobile data is not working and I cannot select and save successfully an APN when created.
I already saw some posts, and I think they are related to this, but I am still not sure what is the problem, what should I do? Maybe I should change the rom to another one or...?
Thank you for your time!

Hello again,
I am back with another issue. I installed the Camera fix file using Recovery: Sense 4.3 Camera Fix:accessing the link from the same page accessed from my first post, from the kernel faux flash file.and now the camera app gives me this message, : Camera error: Can't connect to the camera.
I tried to flash the kernel again but it didn't work. I also tried wiping the dalvik cache, still no change.
Do you know maybe how can this be fixed?
Kind regards

Try to push the apk of the camera.
