S5660V Optus - Best baseband?

Hi, I have a Galaxy Gio GT-S5660V from Optus Australia. currently running the S5660MUGKG3 baseband. I occasionally have issues with bluetooth refusing to turn on, wifi not turning on and then rebooting my phone, etc. I've downloaded the latest firmware from sammobile "S5660VXXKQK_S5660VOPPKQ2_OPP". Should I flash this baseband to my Gio? I'm running GalaxyICS CM9 RC1 from Maclaw. Any other Aussie Gio users? Which baseband do you recommend? Thanks in advance.

Im not sure what baseband does but i know its according to region and the one you have right now is the one that came preinstalled on my gio, the Canadian one, so it might cause trouble for Australia idk

Yes, I installed the Canadian Bell ROM and baseband in order to unlock my phone. Baseband sits under the ROM and controls the hardware interface. There are a few basebands out there for S5660, S5660M and S5660V, but I can't find any information on which is the latest, changes, or which is better for stock/CM ROMs, etc.

Use the latest wich is specific for your V model, otherwise you will get problems..

[Q] Root o2 n7100

Hi There,
My phone :-
Model: GT-N7100
Andriod Version : 4.1.1
Baseband: N7100XXALIH
Kernel Version: 3.0.31-240505 [email protected]#1
Build :JRO03C.N7100XXALIJ
Network/carrier : o2 - UK
I want to root this phone to possibly install custom ROM, I have seen a warning that o2 has insecure kernels and this may brick my phone? I have searched everywhere for the files for o2 rooting but cant find any information on how to do it safely. Can I follow the guide for a standard N7100 or do I have to do somthing different because im on o2 uk?

[Q] Am I able to load a stock rom from another region?

Hi, I'm trying to get a stock rom with Chinese language in my 3 UK locked WFS.
I'm a Samsung man, and have not experience with HTC.
Is it as simple as flashing a stock rom via the PC?
I don't need root, just to change the language.
I read all these things about unlocking the bootloader, then realised it's for rooting only.
Thanks for helping a man out!

Well, I'm from India and I was using the UK RUU without any issues. So I guess it should work. Give it a shot!

Help needed after much searching

Hey Guys,
New to the Note II, and have been searching and searching, and have a few questions, as I really want to get started and use my phone. Have spent hours trying to search.
1- Is the bootloader unlocked from factory?
2- Can I debrand the phone or flash a "stock" samsung firmware without any of tmobile restrictions and apps? Please guide me on where to find the stock samsung build that takes out all tmobile stuff.
3- I heard tethering doesn't work if I use a non-tmobile SIM. Is that true?
Thanks for all the help!

Yes the bootloader is unlocked and the rom im using jedi x8 which is based off of the international one...so I im pretty sure all you do is flash the tmobile radio

[Q] Help choosing correct stock rom.

Hello everyone.
I've owned my Note 2 for since 2013 but it was unused for most of the time since I also own a Nexus. Before I stuck it into the drawer I installed CM 10. 2. Now I would like to go back to stock rom but am having a trouble choosing a correct rom. It is unbranded international version, baseband N7100XXALIH.
Can any of you guys kindly advice please?
Thanks in advance.

Go to sammobile, choose firmwares, choose check firmware, pick note 2 model and your country, it will auto pop out the latest stock rom for you according to country. 4.4.2 is latest
