I did have crappy signal strength on my phone and it would often lose network coverage without giving any indications (didn't show the no signal icon or say No Service). I was using the B137 mongolia amss as that was the last official rom I installed. Since using the official B138 Estonia rom I'm using the B138 amss and I have absolutely no issues with signal since.

So in my case changing amss does help.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] NeostarNeko:
Can you post the b138 version too please ^_^
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] dzo:
b138 amss is identical to b162 amss
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] NeostarNeko:
Ah okay thank you
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] simplistian:
I'm using the B162 AMSS with my Ideos X5 (U8800H). But there's no HSPA+ here so it may not support HSPA+ nicely.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Pelemane:
Maybe you should use U8800H AMSS then. You can find stock ROMs here.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] rasit_aksu:
how to use? AMSS ???
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] rasit_aksu:
AMSS?? What exactly does it do????
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] flibblesan:
Seriously.. it's all written in the very first post. How could you miss this??
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Averell:
Which AMSS

Hi,

I installed Oxygen 110805, then install AMSS from B162, then I installed Oxygen 110811. So, which AMSS I'm using? Does Oxygen package include an AMSS?

I feel like I'm losing a lot of battery power when network signal is bad (much worse than some days earlier)
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Tommixoft:
Some people is f... stupid and lazy :D
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] stan40:
in WM the radio was separate than the ROM, and if you change the ROM the radio stays always the same

it was very important for 3G signal and the battery drain

in android im not very familiar but it should be the same
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] andreasha:
Yes what I know only stock roms include AMSS. So changing custom roms (atleast for this model) doesn't change the AMSS.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Tommixoft:
Thanks... i installed amss.mbn-162 and now i always have full bars.. that was rare previously.

PS i use ONLY GSM.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] hermeas:
How we know which of them must use....?

i have firmwatre 137 whith oxygen....

Sent from my Ideos x5
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Blefish:
From the bootloader mode, I don't have the directories cust_backup/image. I have it as follows: J:\image\cust_data\... The amss.mbn is in the image folder. Is that ok?

-e-

Silly me, never mind...
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Invicta:
guys, when you say install from running system you mean copy paste while the phone is operating with the help of a file manager etc?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] andreasha:
Yes like Root Explorer (don't forget to press the button to mount as RW).
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Tcm9669:
Seems to be working on my phone.. not sure how much of an improvement in reception I got :/
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Tommixoft:
I have one advice for all of you.

Because my carrier uses GSM i do not need CDMA, but bydefault phone set on auto for both and that causes bad signal. So you need to g to secret menu *#*#INFO#*#* and in phone info menu -> Set prefered network type choose your network, mine as i said - GSM so i choose GSM ONLY and then my reception is almost 99% of the time full bars. But sometimes after reboot this setting is reverted to default so need to change it again.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] andreasha:
From http://www.google.ie/support/forum/p/android/thread?tid=6a327a95211ac789&hl=en
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Tommixoft:
GSM signal is everywhere all the time, don't know where you live but i live in city not in forest :D so there is no need to use other mode then **** ONLY cause as i said is bad for signal.

Sweden..then yes there are MANY mountains and forest :D in my country reception is everywhere in max so.. maybe others will find this option bad but in my experience this is the only way that fixes my reception problem :) Cause in default mode my reception is like sound wave metter - differs all the time :D
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] andreasha:
Haha well I'm never out of GSM signal just that I hate to surf with GPRS (my carrier doesn't have EDGE). I want 3G all the time so I set it to WCDMA Preferred. :)

Just a note that Tele2 got EDGE but not around the south parts of Sweden (south of Stockholm the capitol).
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] dmouse81:
Hey,

Hoping someone can help, i've tried using the 162 amss.mbn file, but after I copy it into the folder (via the pink screen) and re-boot my phone just sits at the White Huawei boot screen and nothing happens, I've tried getting into recovery and can't boot into that either? Any ideas?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] katu2006:
Just install a fresh stock Rom and it should be fine. Check your PMs.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Tcm9669:
I'm not sure.. but might be a permission issue?

Personally I copy/pasted from the pink screen and it worked like a charm... (coz Root Explorer would not mount that as R/W)
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] cokratex:
I had the same problem, I booted into pink screen again, tried another amss file, same problem.

Then I took the original file that I had made a backup of and that worked fine.

I then installed latest stock rom and then again back to cm7. If I understand this correct I should now have latest amss. (Correct me if I am wrong)
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] katu2006:
If you definitely installed the latest stock Rom, then you will have the latest AMSS.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Tcm9669:
Is there an option on the phone to see the AMSS version? I installed the B136 and I'm not sure which is the latest.. the 162 posted in here or the one I have.

Thanks
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] andreasha:
The 162 is newer than 136. 162 have the same baseband as 138.

EDIT: You can always compare checksums between the files to check what version you're running :)
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] andreasha:
Is the AMSS on U8800 Pro diffrent from normal U8800?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] dzo:
The amss in the pro 138 software is identical to the original 138 amss and also the 162 amss.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] NForce25:
Pro doesn't have 138 software! The 138 which is in huaweidevice.com as a u8800pro firmware is for the normal u8800, and bricks pro phones if tried to flash. I havent seen any firmwares for the pro model on the internet. My phone runs 026 version
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] andreasha:
Do you have the american impulse or just u8800 pro? Could you post a checksum of your AMSS or upload it?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] NForce25:
I have an ordinary u8800pro. Here is it's amss.mbn: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=LCJDC6LM
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] andreasha:
Thanks. It's 5.5MB bigger than the AMSS for the u8800 so I don't think it'll work.

btw the checksum: b3918c6f312cd06d88b3ba6ca47cee40
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] dzo:
Thanks, I didn't know that, well done Huawei!
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Ozgurce:
I see a leaked B163 AMMS file in goapk forum. If anyone interested, i'll upload it.

I have to ask another question too. What is the EMMCBOOT ?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] dzo:
I'm fairly sure its the same as 138 and 162.

Emmcboot is the bootloader, don't mess with that.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] andreasha:
The 163 AMSS is the same as 162.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Faithlezz:
Can I use AMSS for u8800 on my u8800Pro (+) ?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] boss_y:
No.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] kenblat:
Dear all,

Mine U8800 using synaptic touchscreen, i'm upgrade to aurora 2.0.5 from B518 Official (wanna keep the pink screen), everything look right, but i can't not using the amss 162 that been shared by dzo @ first post... the phone just stuck after huawei logo then black screen (already off maybe). AFAIK B518 AMSS older than the 162? (Pls correct me if i'm wrong) So i need to upgrade as mine signal not quite good these days!

P/S: more info about mine old AMSS file size 23.5 MB (24,727,552 bytes) comapre to Dzo's shared AMSS-162 only 17.9 MB (18,849,792 bytes). And last but not least, i', trying both methods: root explorer inside ICS and Pink Screen!

Many Thanks

Good day,

Tried the new Asus transformers and like the My water Live paper more than the device itself. Did a little search and those guys at Xoom have managed to port it over to Honeycomb.

Was wondering if anyone can do it for Gingerbread, or more specifically our Xperia Arc? here's the link with the APKs and all.

I tried the signed package, it installed but when i select it it crash unexpectedly. Unsigned package did not install at all.

Thanks in advance!

[Quantum General] shadowskater555:
Looking for the factory rom for my lg c900, as I flashed it to mango but cant restore nodo on it :( can someone help me out?
[Quantum General] Aylmer79:
Here you go!

There are instructions and download links there.

When I flashed my Quantum, it took me a while to realise that (at the very very end), you need to press 'start' in the LGDP2 utility BEFORE connecting the phone. So watch out for that.
[Quantum General] shadowskater555:
thnx for that, i've seen the thread and downloaded everything, but this step:

"2. Install LG United Modem Driver, connect the phone to PC through USB cable and let the drivers to be installed. USB 1.1 is recommended."

I dont get what to do, after I install the united modem driver, and not sure where or how to get the firmware that it lists in step 3:

3. You'll need firmware in DZ format and the correct DLL for your model.
[Quantum General] Aylmer79:
2: You just download it and plug in your phone. Nothing really happens, but it's necessary because later, when you want to find out which COM port it's plugged into, you'll have to go into Device Manager and, under Modems, you'll find your phone and right-clicking it and selecting proprieties.

3: The DZ Firmware is the first file you downloaded (it's under FIRMWARES on the page I linked). You have to choose the right one for your phone (by carrier) and unpack the contents. In there, you'll find a .DZ file.

A link to the DLL files is also provided (the word DLL in that step is the link). Again, download the right one (the one with the letter at the end of C900 that corresponds with the Firmware you downloaded - nothing (US), C (Canada) or K (Australia or NZ).

If you have any more problems with the instructions, just ask. We'll keep them on this thread in case anyone else needs help with this in the future.
[Quantum General] shadowskater555:
wow I cant believe I missed those links lol thnx alot, i got the dll and am downlading the DZ now, and ill let you know if i have any problems :)
[Quantum General] shadowskater555:
Okay so I dl'ed the DZ file, but when i open the lgdp32 exe and select umts division, it gives me a fail to open dll file, and then has a ports selection screen with com 7 selected. And com 7 as IDLE.

BTW this is with my phone unplugged, I noticed that nothing happened, and in device manager it just said drivers werent installed,but in emergency download mode it installs all drivers through the found new hardware wizard.

And got this during the installation:
[Quantum General] Aylmer79:
though I'm not sure how to resolve that last issue, I do know how to fix the idle problem: ignore it. It took me forever to realize that: just press ok and then, in the main window, press start. Then connect the phone.

Also, are you sure that it's connected into port 7? Did you check in the device manager?
[Quantum General] shadowskater555:
well the first time i plugged in the phone i was able to check and it said port 0, but I dont see that, but now that its giving me this INF message, when i click properties now the device manager just stops responding for some reason.

EDIT:when i have the phone plugged in normally, not emergency download, it says this:

Location 0 (USB Device)

for the port, but i dont see a com 0 option?
[Quantum General] shadowskater555:
Oddly enough, my phone is now saying theres an update available, but it doesnt sync with the zune software for some reason.

EDIT:just got the installation fixed, and this is the modem page for the device manager.

I did everthing you told me, and found the com port(it was com 3), but when i hit start and plug in the phone in emergency download mode, nothing happens for some reason.
[Quantum General] Aylmer79:
Are you sure that you're using the LGDP2_V36?

You said V32 earlier and I just noticed it. If that's the programme you've been using, try it with the V36 in its stead.
[Quantum General] shadowskater555:
yeah I've been using the 36 one, sorry about misposting not sure what to do now though.

Could the error message "cant find monitor port" have anything to do with this?
[Quantum General] Aylmer79:
Ok, so Today I had to flash my device anyway, so I went through the steps to get more insight into your problems.

What I learned is that you have to ignore all the problems.

So, once you've installed the LG drivers, plug the phone in in Emergency Download Mode and let the computer do whatever it needs to. If there's an error, that's fine. Next step.

Start the LGDP2_V36 UMTS and ignore any problem you're given once you've chosen the option UMTS.

In the bigger window that pops up, click ALL to select all the ports. It saves you the trouble of trying to find the port number of your Quantum.

Find the DLL and run the 'Download Configuration' and find the DZ Firmware. Press ok.

The 'Can't Find Monitor Port' doesn't mean anything. Press OK and continue.

Click Start first then plug in your phone in Emergency Download Mode.

Try this, then get back to me. I'll be checking the forum every 10-or-so minutes to help you resolve your problem as fast as possible.
[Quantum General] shadowskater555:
okay im starting right now, ill just keep updating this post through out.

Update:installed drivers correctly with phone plugged in, unplugged it and started up LGDP2_V36 UMTS, then picked all com ports, found the dll and selected the dz file, hit ok, ignored the cant find monitor port, hit start, then plugged in the phone again in emergency download mode, but when i plug it in, all the ports still read idle, and then the found new hardware wizard still pops up even though i already installed it, then it gives me that INF error. The program is still running and the phone is still plugged in. What do i do from here?

Update:Just noticed that the LG united modem driver says Win7 in the folder name, Do I have to have windows 7? cause Im running XP SP3. and also theres two installation packages, am i supposed to install them both?
[Quantum General] Aylmer79:
Sorry for the delay...

I'm not certain... I have Windows 7 on my PC. I'll do some searching and get back to you.
[Quantum General] Aylmer79:
Here, try this Driver and give me news on how it worked.

Link!
[Quantum General] shadowskater555:
I downloaded the driver detective setup thing, but its asking for a registration code, and I dont have $25 to spend :(
[Quantum General] Aylmer79:
Ah. Let's try something cheaper.

Update: How about this?
[Quantum General] shadowskater555:
the drivers installed fine, but its still doing the same thing, after i get past the port selection and hit start, when i plug in my phone, all the tiles still read idle, but now the device manager doesnt crash when i select properties for it, and it still says its in COM3. also on the ports selection, am i supposed to check off usb mode?
[Quantum General] Aylmer79:
USB is not supposed to be checked.
[Quantum General] shadowskater555:
okay, its still doing the same thing. I really appreciate all the help with this BTW :)
[Quantum General] Aylmer79:
Hey, just a thought outside the box: Is there a Windows 7 PC you can do this on? A friend's or something? You could delete everything after you're done.

The problem is most likely related to Windows XP, so if you repeat the process from scratch on a Windows 7 computer, I'm almost certain that it would work.

Anywho, I'm going to get some shut-eye, but keep me updated on what's happening and what's not happening and I'll continue to do my best to help you flash your device.
[Quantum General] timberwo1f:
Do you have instruction for Windows 7 with zune installed? The instruction in this thread is for Windows XP.

PS1 : I follow this instruction but stuck at LG USBModem. When I connect my phone, it don't install modem driver.

PS2 : Do you have any problem when install LG Panorama Shot app? It always ask me to update myphone even my phone got latest update.
[Quantum General] Aylmer79:
You have to plug in your phone in Emergency Download Mode (Turn off the phone, then press, in this order, "Vol-, Camera, Power" and hold about 3-5 seconds). Then, Windows should install the new drivers.

Don't worry, the instructions are for Windows 7.
[Quantum General] timberwo1f:
My phone has different method to enter EDM. Thanks to tyguy81992 for his tinkering.

1. shut the phone off

2. slide open the keyboard

3. hold space then press power

it goes to download mode instantly

Also, your instruction will bring me to "cold boot" mode (hard reset).
[Quantum General] timberwo1f:
Maybe someone should start thread about "how to flash LG Quantum for dummies".
[Quantum General] Aylmer79:
Do the drivers install when you plug it in in EDM? If nothing really happens, just move on to the next step and see if it works.
[Quantum General] timberwo1f:
I completed flashing now. After update to latest os version, LG panorama shot app still ask me to update my phone. Also, the app name that appear on my phone is AppResDll -100 which isn't app name. Maybe something goes wrong with my phone hardware.
[Quantum General] Aylmer79:
The LG Panorama app was doing that to me as well, but I don't know how to fix it. I didn't need it, so I deleted it.

Unfortunately, I probably know less about your current problem than you. However, I can provide you with general and probably obvious tips: Have you updated your phone to NoDo? Have you tried a factory reset?

Good luck!
[Quantum General] timberwo1f:
I already tried it, but nothing change. Maybe the update that app want is mango beta.

Hi does anyone have a working link for the LG AT&T Stock Firmware for the Quantum. I can't seem to be able to download off depositfiles, it says invalid param. Thnx
[Quantum General] timberwo1f:
You just can't download or the file has been deleted? If the file has been deleted, i will upload to somewhere that allow you to download easier (if person who upload this file allow me to make some mirror).

hey Alymer79, everything worked perfectly when i used windows 7 on my brothers netbook this morning! thnx alot!
[Quantum General] Aylmer79:
Excellent! I'm very glad it did!

So, The moral of this story is: The Flashing instructions are not guaranteed to work with Windows XP. Use Windows 7 instead.
[Quantum General] timberwo1f:
WOW! I don't need any magnifier or glasses to read anymore.
[Quantum General] Aylmer79:
Well, if someone is looking through this thread with the same problem, they won't have to look too hard. :)
[Quantum General] poit57:
My AT&T Quantum somehow lost connection during an update and was bricked. I used the instructions from this thread to flash the factory ROM to my phone. After that was done, I began going through the updates through Zune again. When I got to the Mango update, my phone lost connection during the update and was bricked again. I tried flashing the ROM again, but each time when the phone reboots after the flashing is done, my phone will only get to the LG start screen and freeze. I found the Mango ROM for my AT&T Quantum and tried flashing it instead of the factory ROM, but the same thing happened again: The phone freezes on the LG screen when booting.

Unfortunately, I don't have enough posts in these forums, so XDA won't allow me to post a reply in a thread about firmware updates. Does anyone here have any suggestions for how I can get past this issue and get my phone to fully load the operating system?
