[T-Mobile LG G2x] j3.cole:
I have a few questions in regard to Baseband updates and if we can take advantage of this.

My Question has been covered throughout this forum, with short answers, here and there. However, I have yet to find a sufficient answer to Baseband, Modems, and Radios.

The reason for these questions, are because my signals are horrible and I know it has nothing to do with the roms, I have used all roms offered by our devs. My fiancées mytouch 4g smokes my lg g2x ( sad sad day)

I have ran “GetRil” on every rom and it shows V21e Matching. I have also tried the recommended kernels for each rom.

I have found, depending on the Phone and the thread the terminology changes. For example, HTC threads speak of Radios and Samsung threads talk about Modems. In this thread I have seen Baseband used quite often. Regardless of the terminology, this is the item that effects the signal connection (and much more).

Currently I am running:

Baseband version

M6600A-SCAUTNZ-2.0.9720T [JUL 15 2011 10:00:00] MP:TRULGE_08.09.02R_MDM

Kernel version

2.6.32.9

BUILD

Custom

Software Version

LG-P999-V21e

Can we extract the baseband from leaks (if leaks exist)?

Is a different baseband a potential benefit for signal issues?

Any information or advise is greatly appreciated
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jboxer:
P999 - No. There are only three known basebands (2 TMO and 1 Wind) and nobody has come up with a way to flash them. We have the .bin file for the baseband that came with the GB update, but no way to flash it. P990 has many basebands because many world versions and due to the baseband chip being different hardware they have a way to flash them.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] gypsy214:
guys i have a question. its the basebands sames as Radios?

i was just wondering because there are roms for the sensation ported to the sensation 4g and they have a thread were you see all the radios and you just pick the one u need as example we picked the one for tmous and works fine with others roms
[T-Mobile LG G2x] lannister80:
Yes, conceptually anyway. What works on one phone may not work on another.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] SL:
I have the same July 15 baseband. I updated from the June 15 (Windmobile baseband)

LIke the new one better because my GPS now locks on GB ROM.

With the June 15 baseband, it does not lock on the GPS when using GB ROM.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jboxer:
That's one of the improvements of the July 15th baseband. It fixed GPS locking problems and it improves WiFi connectivity also. The new baseband chips to everything; radio, wifi, gps, bluetooth, etc. so the baseband code being solid is very important.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Core Memory:
How did you update your WIND baseband? Would you please post your method.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jboxer:
Most likely he used the KDZ method to force the installation of the Gingerbread udpate. That would also flash the new baseband. You also get the TMO splash screens and bloatware as bonuses.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Core Memory:
I tried the KDZ method but, although the update started, it got stuck and wouldn't continue. The USB connection was ok and the kdz installer worked. I explained what I did in another thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=18844956&posted=1#post18844956

Should I retry with all the steps implemented or is there another method as I ask about.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] slycog:
It's been stated numerous times that using virtual PC is extremely buggy... more importantly the tool is inherently buggy anyways for a number of reasons.

The baseband itself gives you a software based vector for updating (you talk to an initialized baseband)... in addition there is an emergency based diagnostic interface for when you fubar a flash... very similar to nvflash for our system nand.

Your concerns in regards to the recovery are also silly as nvflash provides unrestricted low level access to the system nand memory.

Find a Windows XP PC and report back.

How to update only baseband

Its really compatible g2x, some tryed flash this baseband to g2x?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jboxer:
You've asked and you've been given an answer already. You CANNOT update only the baseband on this phone at this time. Nobody has come up with a way to do it.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] slycog:
More specifically, before you can even think about updating to the prototype baseband you must dump it from the device itself.

Now, because we have extracted the g2x baseband updates from the official kdz files, it is absolutely possible for this guy to force an update to our baseband... which would in theory allow him to use his device on tmobile.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jboxer:
Not sure about that. There is a hidden partition that controls sim lock, etc. That would have to be flashed also to remove the lock. You need special tools to do that.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jboxer:
Deleted - posted in wrong thread.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] sukhochir:
,When i updated baseband need unlock? , my phone is factory unlocked
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jboxer:
There are no factory unlocked P999s sold. Only the P990 can be bought factory unlocked. If you bought it unlocked someone unlocked it with a code or special software. The unlock state is kept in a secret hidden partition that you cannot access. Flashing the baseband, which we cannot do, should not change your locked/unlocked state.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] d12unk13astard:
A little offtopic but one of the best reasons i loved my old mt4g was how easy it was to flash the radios/baseband thru the bootloader, LG and their godawful drivers/support for this phone just makes me sick. Wish HTC would have made the G2x but kept the tegra chip intact, it's still a nice chip despite having no support from nvidia, played some very nice games with it that put other qualcom/powervr games look ****ty next to it lol
[T-Mobile LG G2x] j3.cole:
I too have the July 15th.... But, is it GB Roms's that cause the issue with Data? If I went to Froyo,like Bionix, would it be more compatible with the baseband?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] abhinav333:
Baseband unknown

is there any solution to this problem(Baseband Unknown )
[T-Mobile LG G2x] GenghisKhan67:
Can a Videotron user confirm that updating the May baseband for the July version works? Is it actually worth the trouble of (possibly) bricking my phone? Thanks.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] joeyxl:
So i flashed cm7 from my stock wind p999, add this RIL app says none are compatible with my stock Baseband. Shall i goto a newer one, or is there no upside using it on wind?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] tahahawa:
No upside really, but I haven't tried it.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jboxer:
If your baseband is May it is probably close to the July baseband. Just leave it alone and wait for a full phone update from LG.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Core Memory:
If your phone model is P999, try updating it with an update from LG for the P999 which, if it works, will install a baseband.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] joeyxl:
oh ok, thanks! but heres my problem. getRIL is saying my baseband isnt compaitable with any of the availble RILS on the list. would someone like to see a screenshot and help me?

many thanks!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] I.R.Chevy:
getRIL should have a matching RIL now, at least it does for me.

I do have an odd issue that has been bugging me forever across all roms, kernels, RIL's, CPU Voltages & Frequencies, ect... There is always a delay from when i press the end call to when the phone hangs up... Annoying. The only thing i didnt try was flashing the July 15 baseband, im running June 5. (Wind Stock i think)

I was looking around today and couldnt seem to find a working link for the July 15 baseband i was wondering if someone could hit up a link for me :) Thnks

A new g2x you say?

The noob says:

In the absence of a valid argument, 2+1=3 may be used to explain why the g2x did not get the ICS update!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] SpaceRanger69:
It's simple... If you want Bluetooth to function flawlessly, you use the July, 2011 baseband. If you aren't concerned about BT and want the latest, then use the March 2012 baseband.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] helstonrampersad:
What do you mean when you say latest? Like I can use a 10.1 ROM and calling and messaging and data will work?

I want to know why g2x has random reboots even in gingerbread. Its either software or hardware issue. Maybe that's where you should look for ICS.

I'm running 2.3.7 with cm7 and updated baseband and my phone works great....my wife has the same phone and it was running 2.2.2 and it would reboot at random but I updated her baseband via LG mobile update tool offline and flashed cm7 2.3.7 and all is well.....thanx to all the developers that put the time in to helping us get the most out of these g2x

[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HannesB:
hi,

i used an existing sound recorder and implmed, one by myselft.

There are some samples form MS, how to do sound recording too.

Now i want to send the recorded sound to another user's android phone.

Should be simple

- Send as email attachment

- Send via bluetooth

I did not find a program on the marketplace and trying to implent this by myself i found no example, how to do this. In this forum and on other resources, i read, that it currenty is not possible, to send email attachments programatically.

Is there really no way, to do such a simple task, as sending/sharing an audio file (after converting the recorded byte-array to .wav format) to another phone via email or bluetooth ?!

regards,

hannes
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MJCS:
E-Mail attachment shouldnt be hard but WP7 does not support bluetooth file transport
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sensboston:
Forget about bluetooth (until MS releases some kind of BT API). As for email attachment, you have a two options:

- implement smtp/exchange client by yourself;

- use (create) http "proxy" service on the external server (you sending audio data and additional parameters, and service forms the message with attachment).

Both ways a really not easy and expensive.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MJCS:
Send me a PM and I'll write something and upload it to the marketplace tonight.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HannesB:
The problem is: An email attachment in fact IS hard (impossible), without using some external service.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HannesB:
Thank your for your response!

This is quiete the same, what i found out too. It is possible (i am a developer and i can host such a sevice on my domain) but that's not the way i like to do it.

I play in a band and recorded some demo with the phone and now want to send this recording to my band colleagues but it was not possible to do this.

This should be as simple as "open a bluetooth connection" + send.

On a windows phone, store it in the "media collection", on other phones, store it on a selectable location on the file system.

This is really anoying.

I like the platform and like developing for it but not beeing able to do such simple things...it's hard to argue, why WP is better than f.e. android.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HannesB:
I think, i don't get the point of your reply.

What do you want to write - a program, that does does recording audio + email it to other users?

I am searching for a solution, how to develop this by myself, not for a program on the marketplace.

regards,

hannes
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MJCS:
Oh...and I had already started programming it. Oh well. Basically do this:

Upload to SkyDrive using the API or...

Create a WCF Service that allows you to send a file stream

Have the files stream get written to the server as a GUID

Return link to file

Send link via e-mail

Have file expire after 24/hrs or something
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HannesB:
hi,

thank you, for your response.

...and starting programming on it so fast. ;)

(if you really started programming it - put it on marketplace, i am sure, many people would like souch a tool)

The "problem" with this approach (and email too) is:

- i need an internet connection to upload

- the people that want to download the file, need an internet connection

- there are still people, that don't have an internet flatrate for their phone or any internet connection (or have to use roming, if not at home) and jus say "..hey, you recorded it - send it to me via bluetooth".

Seem's, the steps you discribed, are the only option, to do it. The phone i used 5 year ago, could send pictures and audio recording via bluetooth and since the mango update is currently released and doest not contain an api for bluetooth access, i think it will not be released soon, if ever.

In another posting i read: "I take a picture with me and my friends and i can't send them over the bluetooth. They have cheap dumbphones and I have Omnia 7 and I'm embarrassed. Bluetooth filetransfer is essencial feature."

Ok, this is "offtopic" now, sorry but anyway thank you for your responses.

The steps you explained are possible for sure, but in my opinion a bit "much work", for simply sending some data != text.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sensboston:
HannesB, I agree with you, it's kinda annoying. But, probably, MS will open some new APIs in future (WP7 is based on WinCE so it's not such a big deal, code/drivers are already exists for that platform). Don't forget - WP7 platform is still too new.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] babyjustine:
I have an app called CopyCat. It will let you do recordings (and change the playback as well).

http://www.windowsphone.com/en-US/search?q=copycat

It will let you store to the Public folder of your DropBox account.

As previously mentioned, unfortunately there is no way to attach WAV files to an email currently.

Hope this can be of help.

[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] VSolis:
I wasn't paying attention when I updated my v1.3 Focus to Mango, so I'm not sure that the Samsung drivers got installed. The firmware is listed as 2103.3.1.0.7. I have downloaded a few compass apps and all of them indicate "This app uses features your phone doesn't have." Furthermore, when I use my camera, tapping the screen allows me to take a photo, but I'm not sure my phone is focusing in the area that I'm tapping on.

1. How do I know if the Samsung drivers got installed? I tried to view the logs of the install, but updatewp.exe got deleted when I updated the Windows Phone Support tool.

2. If I determine that I *am* missing the drivers, how do I install them. I have already checked for updates and Zune tells me my phone is up to date.

[TouchPad General] Safidk:
Hi guys,

I hope this is the right forum to post this :o)

I got CM7 running on the touchpad, and I love it. Its just awesome, but the thing is Im use to HTC sense from my phone and miss some of the widgets. So… my questing is anyone know some widgets that can do this:

A calendar widget that looks like the sense one, so you see all the dates on a list, and make it possible to scroll through them. I have been looking, and looking but cant find a calendar widget on the market that let me do that on the touchpad.

Other this I need is a news widget that look similar like the sense one, or can do the same thing. It should reed from 5 different feeds at once, and show them on a list, so I can scroll through them.

Is it posible to "copy" the sense widgets from my phone to the touchpad, or will they only work under sense?

Hope you guys can help me, and I hope its not just me that cant setup widgets on my touchpad :)

Regards,

Safi
[TouchPad General] erick161:
I don't own an HTC phone but can tell you a simple search in the marketplace will yield you plenty of HTC sense clones. And to answer your question, no you cannot port sense Widgets to anything other than sense.
[TouchPad General] Safidk:
....! No a simple search WONT give me a widget that works like the sense one.. i have triede like 10 different... so before you throw the "use search"-card, you should know what im talking about, and as you dont own a sense phone, you dont.. or im pretty sure you dont.
[TouchPad General] james3833:
Try Colorize widgets. Pretty cool collection of widgets. Calendar, agenda, contacts, bookmarks, twitter etc.

Launcher pro the paid version has widgets like that
[TouchPad General] Safidk:
m8 you rock! yes your are the king of search and im a dumbass...

First of all, you state that you dont have a sense phone, and therefore dont know anything about the feel of the widgets. Have you tried all the widgets that you have found?? I really dont think so...

2nd, i have tried like 10-15 different apps that stated that they where sense like, but they where ****. So thats why i made this thread, and it worked!! I got a link to a app that i could use.

3rd, how could you tell that Im to stupid to search?

again m8, go troll somewhere else..!
