Is it dangerous to downgrade from NFSFAN GPS rom to original Bell Rom?

I've read on the other site that its dangerous
http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=26082
I have NFSFAN Latest rom with GPS, I want to go back to the original bell rom because bell world said they can't change my cell phone number with the custom rom.
Thanks
I have done it so many times......nothing hard nor dangerous.
Just use the latest bell firmware (with the GPS) and flash it.....

Hmm sounds kinda weird, I don't see why the need the stock bell ROM to change your number. Just re flash it with the bell ROM, go get it changed, then flash your custom ROM back. Just don't try to return your phone until you have downgraded the bootloader and flashed the stock bell ROM, but in your situation it does not sound like there is a need to downgrade.
just make sure that the Official Bell Rom has the 3.xx Radio or more,, and you will be fine.
Well I flashed to NFSFAN's ROM hand had nothing but trouble after that. Now, to be honest I couldn't say if it was the ROM or the flashing that caused the problem, as I unlocked as I was supposed to first, but I could not reflash back to OEM after that using active sync, I had to do it from the storage card. And now after trying it yet once again, my phone shows No Service...
So I would say that your mileage may definitely vary... I'd say if you're able to downgrade to the Bell 3.09.666 ROM from activesync you should be fine.
Keep us posted!

Some questions related to AT&T tilt 2

I just got my tilt 2 about a month ago. I want to flash a clean rom, but here are my questions:
1. I heard that I have to unlock my phone before I flash a new rom, is that true?
2. Which rom do you guy recommend? I just need a clean rom with TouchFLO 3D or Sense.
3. How can I back up the rom I'm using now?
4. If I have to unlock my phone to flash a new rom(which I'm not willing to do it now), how can I delete all the pre-installed softwares? I looked it up in Wiki, but when I try to delete something by using CEregeditor, it always says that access denied. How to solve this problem?
Thanks a lot
you dont need to sim or security unlock your phone but you do need hardspl. if you want a clean rom with manila/tf3d/sense i would recommend eras2r's rom at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=585403 . and for reverting to stock for warranty and everything else you need check out http://tilt2.blownfuze.org/
Thanks. I got another question, do I also ned to flash radio? what is that for?
radio is for wifi, gps, and cellular connections like phone and mobile data. you dont need to flash one. the stock radio that comes on the phone is one of the best stock radios i have seen. on the old touch pro, you would need to flash a new radio if you wanted to get a signal anywhere or use gps in this decade. i always flash the newest radios just cause i can but thats me, i dont like out dated software. i would wait on the radio if i where you, just to know what it all means first.

[Q] Need Nandroid file to go to stock

Hey everyone, I have an unlocked T-Mobile USA Motorola Defy unlocked and have really screwed it up, the baseband is stuck on EPU93_U_00.59.01 for whatever reason no matter what. I finally have gotten EDGE and H back, but its sporadic and also data is broken no matter what APN I use.
I flashed a UK rom and 3G fix. But I want to go back to the latest version of T-Mobile stock firmware but I am unable to find a Nandroid backup file anymore since multi-upload is down. Can anyone help?
Thanks
You don't need a nandroid. What you need is a full SBF to go back to stock.
Since I didn't find a newer US version, here is a link to 2.2.1-3.4.2-107
Hope it helps and you know how to flash it.

Thanks! Since I am on a higher version will It let me downgrade? I have tried sbf flashing with no luck. You just put it in the boot loader mode and let it flash in sbf until it says done? I'm going to try this one and report back

Definitely more info needed.
What ROM is on your device?
What bootloader did you install?
What modem/baseband/radio is on your device?
What method did you use to try to install the bootloader?
Is your phone still showing the correct IMEI in settings or 0 ? (Compare between that shown in settings and under the battery.)
It may be as simple as updating your modem, but I/we can't tell yet.

I'm new at this, in fact I have flashed by old Captivate several times but yet to flash my SGS3. Anyhow, I have spent many hours reading. Before doing anything I suggest, read, and read some more.
Don't flash back to 4.1.1 or 4.1.2 at this point. They will install an older bootloader than is currently on your phone. From what I have read, you narrowly escaped bricking your phone. You might want to read some of the threads regarding the 4.3 stock ROM and unbricking before making any changes in restoring your device.
You can probably fix this by flashing the modem that goes with the 4.3 series ROMs. It would also be the MJB flavor, although the MJ2 would probably work. Several of the 4.3 TouchWiz ROMs in the development forum have download links for the MJB modem. I would guess you were probably going to install one of them. I would recommend flashing the modem to see if that solves your issues before going ahead with the ROM flash.

The reason I didn't put a link in the previous posts was to get you to read about what you were doing as you searched for the modem. I am offering advice on things I have yet to experience on this device and only speaking second hand. My advice is only based on what I have read not on anything I have had to correct myself.
In truth I think you just stopped too soon in the process of what you were doing earlier. You said you installed the 4.3 bootloader in preparation to installing a 4.3 or later ROM that required the up to date bootloader. You didn't mention installing the current modem/baseband. You didn't mention trying to flash whatever ROM you had been considering.
You may be able to correct your device simply by installing the 4.3 modem. HERE is the modem thread, it is in the General Forum for our device. Make sure you pick the correct one. I don't know if your device will work well on the MJB bootloader and modem with a 4.1.1 ROM, from something I seem to recall reading I suspect it will.
Take this in steps. Install the correct modem, the one that matches your bootloader. See if that corrects you sim, data, and IMEI problems. If it does correct the issues, the next step is to decide if you want to stay on the 4.1.1 ROM or change to whatever ROM you had been considering. If you decide to change, make backups first. If it doesn't fix the problem while on 4.1.1 you may want to flash the version of the official 4.3 ROM enewman17 has provided on the development thread.
Take it one step at a time. Read about what you are about to do until you understand it well, all before doing anything. Make backups sequentially as you make each corrective step.
HTH.

thanks man for telling me what was wrong your an amazing human being and i love you (no homo) and thanks again a million thanks bro.
Did that modem fix some of the problems?
If your on 4.1.1 shouldn't you flash the DKL3 version or can't you just flash thru Odin the DLK3 stock ROM thru Odin Amd start all over again
I've been on 4.3 with that bootloader Amd have flashed back to 4.1 back to the baseband version DLK3 firmware. I would think being on 4.1 you should be able to reflash using Odin to fix the issue or flash the modem for 4.1 .

something i need to know befor flashing
