Updating Baseband Version - EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi, I'm new to the custom ROM world and have been doing a lot of hunting and learning and I'm wondering what the newest baseband version I can use with CM 6.1 RC1 is, and also, where I would find a repositories of the baseband versions. Currently I'm using 1.36.00.04.02 and I'm seeing that people have up to 2.15.x. Also, last night I installed Fresh 3.0.4.1 thinking it would update the BB Version, but I have the same version in Fresh as well.
TIA

[Q] Help! I can't get any 3G in Singapore after flashing my baseband!

Hi, any fellow Singaporean Desire owners here? I need your help!
While I was flashing my desire to froyo (Pinky's rom), I had also flashed my baseband to the latest one. Now, I can't access the 3G network. I still can make calls but I cannot get online! I feel so crippled! Is it due to the rom, or due to the baseband?
Here's the info of my phone:
android version: 2.2
baseband version: 32.43.00.32U_5.09.00.20
I appreciate your help for this n00b.
Thanks!
thomaspkc, i am also from singapore. just wanna ask, why did you flash your baseband? so far, i got no problems using 3g on my htc desire.
i am currently using Opendesire v3.0.5

Well Basili0, n00b mistake i guess. I thought that i will need, to flash the baseband since many of the roms recommended that update. Haha killed my 3g as a result. So what is your baseband version then. I have to find a way to downgrade it. Thanks for your speedy reply!
You can downgrade it easily by flashing another radio with a lower version number but you'll probably have to go back to a 2.1 rom.
After the whole day of looking for solutions, I have finally solved it! It seems that my APN was wiped when I flashed the rom. That's why Pinky released 0.7 to restore the APNs. Thanks guys!

[Q]0004 HW , which rom?

first time poster here , ive been reading alot of different info about rooting for the evo as i am new to all of this. I just got my evo this past dec and its not rooted(yet) ,i plan on puting on myn's warm rom but one FAQ/post that particularly bothers me is a quote from the following found at android central
Hardware Version 004:
--
Just a tip for after this process is complete, if you have Hardware Version 004 you need to run a ROM built off of the latest Sprint kernel (as of now, I'm sure aosp builds like Cyanogen will update after the source is released) for the camera to work. These hardware versions have new camera hardware. The kernel that works is from the Sprint/HTC 3.7 software release.

i plan on rooting via this method.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=829045
so my question is which rom/roms are compatible?(noticed that myn's is based off of 3.30 so im not sure if i can even use that) or is this info out of date or am i missing some information? , i just want all of my evo's features working, suggestions on roms would be appreciated
my evo specs are
Hardware Version: 0004
stock htc kernal
3.70 OTA
HBoot: 2.10
using 64bit win 7 also.
thanks in advance =)
this info you have quoted is out of date. htc (happily) released the #15 kernel source, which is fully compatible accross the board. myn took a long vacation, so if i were you, i would either flash one of the nightly roms he is making (despite the name, not every night though. maybe 3 times a week at most. my phone is getting sore from lack of flashing) or just wait for the stable release.
btw, welcome to the forums, and hopefully to root. i know a few people that would be happy to help you if you are stuck or having problems rooting. i am one of them. my info is all in my sig. just contact me and i will be happy to help you. even if you want a hand-holding walkthrough (but you seem more independent than that. you read!!!)
thanks for the reply dk. what about the #17 kernel's source?, im leaning torwards flashing a more stable rom, any suggestions for a solid one?, and thanks if i run into any problems i will message you

The kernel source for 17 hasn't been released yet that I have heard. For a stable rom I would recommend Myn's TwoPointTwo. The public release of RLS 5 is out tomorrow which will have all of the updated stuff. I might be a little biased as I am a user of Myn's rom, but I could also recommend Fresh to you as well. It all really depends on what you want out of a rom. If you like Htc Sense, then stick to either one of those and I would say Myn's. If you don't like Sense, go with Cyanogen.

If you're trying to flash an out of date rom, go get the #15 kernel from the dev section of this forum. Then all you need is to downgrade your PRI to 1.77 and you'll be able to flash any rom you want.
Enjoy!
I have hardware 0004.
Flash the rom first,
flash the #15 kernel (whichever one you want/like)
flash the PRI downgrade last (you can also find all PRI/radio/etc versions in the dev section)
nandroid first
wipe cache/dalvik between each flash.
Myn's rls5 (which will be released 1/7/11 for everyone), mikfroyo and the stock rom are all compatible with the hardware WITHOUT the PRI downgrade. The #15 kernel is recommended anyway, you might as well get it now.
what are the differences between #15 and #17?
leaning torwards myn's. not even rooted yet haha
i will see what happens in the next few days and report back(in the middle of moving), thanks for the info so far
I would also suggest virus roms. He makes amazing roms. As long as you have kernel 15, you should be able to flash any rom , I believe (anyone feel free to correct me). I dunno, I guess, I try to keep up with the new releases, I don't have hw 0004, but I know others who do who also run virus roms (I suppose it's just a matter of the kernel). Listen to others more than me
But welcome.

Hi there,
I have too a 004 Evo with the 2.10 hboot, and I rooted it with that method u posted and am currently running Myn's RLS4 with the latests radio, nv and wimax BUT with the pri at 1.77 and using netarchy's 4.2.3 kernel without any problems whatsoever, so from my pov you're good to go...
And fwiw, I am using latest RA's....
Just have one more question,do I need to flash updated radios our can I just leave them?
I'm not really sure what the benefits of updated ones are..I've read some scary stuff after people flashing radios, in combo at least
ok, first of all, kernel 15 is newer than 17 for some wird reaosn. 15 was just released on the 3.70 ota. sidology, the updated radios are just the newest released. all root methods besides unrevoked downgrade you waaaay back (to the first software release i think?) in order to exploit the phone. this is why you need to upgrade your radios back. myns 5 is out now, so you have no worries anymore. just root, and flash!
i may not be available to helping you root (i need to train some rats this week homework sucks) but i am free tomorrow and most weekends and will do all i can.

thanks for clearing that up =S, i thought 17 was newer lol. i havent rooted just yet, trying to gather info as i go , i still plan on using the 2.02/2.10 guide in my OP and just re flashing sprint lovers with the radio combo since im not sure if the one in the guide uses that one, then flash to myn's L5
just a side thought: i dont see many posts about people using unrevoked 3.3 much, if it doesnt downgrade radios shouldnt it be easier?
EDIT: just read that unrevoked is an easier method at bricking some peoples phones ,so nevermind lol
anyway thanks alot for the replys and info, its very much appreciated
unrevoked can sometimes brick people, or just corrupt your radio. if you dont mind wiping, then root manually. much safer, and you get to figure out how to actually so some stuff.

Baseband Versions

Could People Post up what version of Android they are running as well as Baseband Version? I have a defy from November that I just flashed the posted full 6.36.0 SBF onto to restore it, and the baseband after flashing says EPU93STU_U_03.04.02. My Defy that just got replaced under warranty and that I updated to 2.2 before the first boot gives me a Baseband of EPU93_U_00.58.00 . To me that means the newer phone has the older baseband. Anyone else care to chime in on this?
Disregard...I just got the sanctioned version from Moto. It matches up exactly now.
I have the same baseband: EPU93_U_00.58.00

Moto is doing an official Test release of 2.2 for Tmobile right now. One of my phones is in it. That phone now matches my other one with the original leaked 2.2. Which tells me the original leak is the final version.
So baseband: EPU93_U_00.58.00 is correct?
Weird...

Yes. Seems a little backwards to me...but that's what final shows as.

[Q] ROM

Howdy all.
I've recently got myself a One X and it come rooted with a custom ROM installed. I would like to flash a newer version of the running ROM I'm using but I'm not sure what the ROMs called, all the info I get form the software number is "1.29.708.9.OneX.G2 by Cason" with the android version being 4.0.3.
So if anyone has any info on this and where to grab an updated version I'd really appreciate it!
Cheers

what rom/kernal am i using?

Hi guys, I got my glide sent over from the u.s (I'm in the u.k) a few months ago, it was already rooted for me, and as such, I'm wondering what rom and kernal I'm using?
The details I can retreive are:
Android ver 4.0.4
Baseband : I927RUXKJ5
Kernal : 3.1.10-I927UCLG9-CL970642
Build. : IMM67D
Does this give anyone any clues?
Is this the stock ota ics update from at&t?
The phone is a rojers one.
Stock kernal?
Just wondering as was thinking about flashing the litekernal, and not sure if it would work ok with the rom I am using, as this rom is very stable..
Btw cwm is installed etc..
Thanks..
James.

Correct, that's the UCLG9 Samsung stock rom with stock kernel and you should have no problems installing the ICS version of litekernel.
