I guess there's no more conversation there to go on. Since the nv2 contains your personal IMEI, I don't believe it's legal (or practical) to share that. I think I recall that the LG Update tool had a menu selection for "recovery phone" into which you enter your IMEI. Possibly this is a solution.

@ Richard

That is somewhat dated. The cm referred to is mikos, made for old baseband, which predates official cm7.2, which is made for new baseband. Also, at the time, there was not a good way to root official gingerbread, so people would downgrade to froyo in order to root.

Hey everyone,

I'm really sorry if someone else has posted with this issue, but unfortunately I, as a woman, have no patience whatsoever to read through 51 pages of thread posts after about the 4th page. So here's my issue:

I'm on the old baseband and flashed into Gingersnap v2.3 by neko95(?) and want to upgrade my baseband in order to run CM whatever. I looked up a few tutorials, all telling me the same thing, to use LGMDP. My only problem is, even after going in and disabling the modem in device manager, trying to run the program as administrator, I cannot for some reason get the program to recognize my phone. I have the LG Optimus T[USA T-Mobile] aka the LG Optimus P509.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Its not that the ROM I'm currently using is bad or I don't like it because it's good and I do like it, I would just prefer to be using CM whatever and having a more updated Android version.

Thanks in advance!

Kait

PS- I am relatively new to the development stuff- I've flashed a couple phones before, but haven't gotten into it too much as life at the moment won't allow me to do so. Just as a heads up.

Okay, pardon me if this has been answered before (did a quick search, which didn't yield any results).

My friend has the P500 and I helped him upgrade from 2.2 to 4.1 (CM10), but now he's not getting any network.

Now I'm a bit confused at the basebands. Is the v10E safe to use on 4.1?

Thanks for your time!
[Optimus One, P500, V General] ibub:
The Android version 2.2 uses v10 baseband (old bb). The rom you installed more than likely uses v20 (new bb). The easiest (and safest) thing you can do, to restore signal, is to flash a fix from the thread linked in my quote. This will allow the rom to use the old bb still in the phone.

[Optimus One, P500, V General] Lesicnik1:

So, that should be safe for 4.1.2?

All I do when I get his phone again is flash the Old BB->New BB .zip file?
[Optimus One, P500, V General] ibub:
Yes, and to clarify, this does not change the baseband. It only allows the rom to use the existing (old) bb.

Not sure if this is of any help. The phone is currently on Straight Talk (ATT) and I started this since I was not getting 3G service, but only Edge, and when this phone was on TMobile it was running 3G.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] ibub:

Edit: If you are using the AT&T version of sim, you will not get 3g signal, only Edge. This T-Mobile phone's hardware will not access the proper frequencies. Straight TALK sells a T-Mobile sim that will give 3g on T-Mobile network. $15. I tried the same thing. But right now, we need to see if your phone is healthy.

Not any longer. The BaseBand shows as unknown.

And I have tried running OldBaseBandFix which had helped in the past with no luck.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] ibub:
If your baseband has been upgraded, then oldbb fix will not work. New bb fix will allow your old bb rom to work with new bb phone. You could try to flash a new bb rom (without the fix), to see if it recognizes the baseband. I edited my post on the previous page. Hit refresh and look.

hope this will not add any more complication. Originally i've tried upgrading with p500-v20g-baseband and after that failed i've tried v10E. Currently, LG 3G download program shows p500-m76xx-v10e-feb-23-2011-xx,

Purpose for trying the OldBBFix was to check if upgrade was a success.

Should I attempt an NV Restore?
[Optimus One, P500, V General] ibub:
V10e is version made for p500 in India. Did you flash full firmware, or just baseband? And again, what version does it state in settings/about phone? Also look to see if your IMEI is listed.

[Optimus One, P500, V General] ibub:
I could advise you to restore your NV2 backup. But I'm not sure what effect flashing baseband has on the old bb fix that was previously flashed to the rom. If you could flash a fresh rom (no fix), then we might discover more. Preferably a froyo based rom. If worse comes to worse, restoring NV2 may work. There are other options as well (last resort).

P509 Stock ROMs

Froyo:

v10s - 2.2.2 [English]

Any thoughs on this one in particular before I flash? Came from this post: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1824618

According the tool I now have p500-M76XX-V10e-Feb-23-2011-XX after flash is applied.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] ibub:
So you flashed v10s rom from the repository, and still no signal? Look at system/about phone and verify Android version. Then go to dialer and access hidden menu by dialing 3845#*500#. In version info, you can find baseband information. Should read amss 6038. If it reads amss 6051, that is new baseband. To leave hidden menu hit back button.

Edit: What time zone, or region of the globe do you live in. I am in eastern USA, so I just woke up.

Edit: If you have verified that Android version is 2.2.2, and the tool says v10e, and still have no signal, IMEI, or baseband (hidden menu) listed, then I would advise you to restore NV2 backup. Also, IMEI SV is listed as 00 on my phone.

Edit: By the way, the rom from the repository is already rooted, so you will not have to root it. And are you flashing roms via custom recovery, or LGMDP?

[Optimus One, P500, V General] pupsikgene:
I've edit the post yesterday but looks like it didn't take it. The phone now has signal and Edge for internet. Android 2.2.2. Network states ATT, IMEI is there and SV is 00.

Unfortunately, no able to verify BB. While accessing hidden menue, get "connection problem or invalid MMI code".

To flash, I store a file on SD and install zip via CWM. I hope that is a proper method.

Would upgrading the BB improve performance of the phone? When I tried 9.1.5 I believe network would show up as Edge:2 not Edge.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] ibub:
If you have a signal and IMEI, then your phone is healthy. You have old bb. The reason that you only get edge network is because of AT&T style of straight talk sim. To get 3g, you will need to order the T-Mobile style sim ($15) from straight talk (online). It won't use AT&T network, but the only alternative is a different phone. If you choose to upgrade baseband again, you still will not get 3g on AT&T sim. And don't forget to check your APN settings. :)

Edit: Yes, flashing via CWM recovery is fine. I just didn't have any clue, as to your skill level.

Edit: As far as access to the hidden menu, possibly substitute 509, in place of 500. I thought 500 would work, because the rom is p500. Doesn't matter. As far as hardware, they are same phone.

Edit: The rom is a p509 rom. I was mistaken. Didn't remember.

I have no skill as it comes to the Android. Only 've had it for a couple of weeks.

I've tried loading CM7 on the phone but BB wouldn't work. In the past I would install from zip and oldBB fix and it would work. But now it doesn't.

What is the combination you are running on yours?
[Optimus One, P500, V General] ibub:
I'm running genetICS 9.1.5.2(new bb). But my phone has new bb from an emergency kdz flash (long story). There is a somewhat contradiction with cm7. MikOS cm7 is made for old bb, but official cm7.2 is for new bb. I have used both, but never with the old bb fix. I guess I've flashed this phone more than 150 times (no exaggeration). But whenever I tried Lgmdp early on, I had problems with drivers. So it ran on forever, not doing anything. But I've learned a lot. So trying to give a little back. Anyway, glad to hear that your phone is healthy. It can make you panic, when something like this goes wrong. :)

[Optimus One, P500, V General] ibub:
As I'm sure that you are well aware of the risk that you take, trying to flash baseband, most of the seasoned users and developers try to encourage use of the old bb fix. Most reports I have read are favorable. Cm7.2(official) has a tendency to reboot upon an incoming call. GenetICS just became "finished" about 2 months ago , and works very well for me. It does occasionally reboot for no apparent reason (seldom), but not on calls. Battery drain is faster than cm7, but it's worth it (fast). And everything works AFAIK, where with most custom roms, something is usually broken. New bb is not really usable in USA. T-Mobile never offered the upgrade. But if you do upgrade, and have trouble, I still have a few tricks. :)

there are many phone models in this LGMDP

For example :

BL20, BL40, GD880, GW620,C710, P500, P500h, P503, P509 but there is no GT540.

I think somebody edited orginal LGMDP cause this tool was used in older phones like KU990, KC910 until 2010. Last LGMDP in LG CSMG server is from January 2009.

New phones are allowed to use LGDP2 (LGMDP and LGDP2 are tools created by LG) and there is only option to flash .dz file. If you are not sure look at Service Manual.

I've changed GW620 to GT540 using some tricks. I plugged phone and downloaded .nv2 file. I've edited my IMEI number and try to restore .nv2 to phone but nothing happen. So I guess that you cannot upload .nv2 to phone, you can just download it from phone to PC. BTW somewhere in .nv2 exist NCK unlock code. IMEI, BT and WIFI numbers are known but NCK is unknown.

[Optimus One, P500, V General] ibub:
I didn't notice any difference. But I believe that depends on location, as different cell networks use different frequencies. I do notice that the sound volume is a little low with the rom that I am using. If you decide to flash bb again, you will need to undo the old bb fix, or reflash rom without using it. Previous backup will not work, because it contains the fix. :)
[Optimus One, P500, V General] cornelha:
For those who have had the problem I have been having trying to update my baseband to new, due to the device taking too long to boot up (probably a mount script that causes the slow down).

1) Boot into recovery and start the procedure there.

2) After the tool has finished flashing the baseband in emergency mode, when it reboots, just hold power+volume-down+home to enter recover again automatically.

I was finally able to update to new baseband using this technique after numerous failed attempts with different roms.

I Installed an ICS based rom first, and LGMDP would not recognise my phone (even though the system said the drivers installed fine... i put it in recovery and LGMDP recognised it... but when i got to the emergency screen my phone and my computer froze.. freaked me out.

I then tried installing it by starting with my phone in emergency mode... this flashed.... something... but i still didnt end up with the correct baseband.

Finally i restored my original rom, flashed the new baseband, then reflashed the rom... seems to have worked.

Guys. I always changed roms from my phones with normal minor problems, always solving the problems, so My friend asked me to update the P500. So I went Straight to Paranandroid rom( A rom i used on my old optimus 2x), and flashed it, The icons were very small so I found and flashed CM10. But now No IMEI, no Serial no Baseband.

Never imagined that on this phone this could be so critical( discad the phone if you used a Rom not compatible with the BB installed).

So, thats it, there is no way to flash a new BB ou stock rom to have the phone Back ?

I didn´t see this on CM10 instructions, ( you can loose your phone if installing this rom with Old BB present).

I can´t believe that its this way...

It REALLY a lost case ??

as I read on the first post ?

Couldn´t you post a HUGE warning fixed on top of this forum , but MANY people with experience other phones, will not imagine that such a simple procedure( flashing a ROM) could damage the phone this way. On My optimus, I changed roms more than 20 times, and a Wrong BB gave me only no RADIO, but was just to flash a BB compatible and everything was goog again...

So anyone can give me a better hope ??

Ok, no need to all TERRORISM made on first Post..( you have a piece of junk, blá,blá,blá).
