I wanted to see if we could downgrade our radio from the JB version to the ZV9. I got it to boot, and then the hands-free activation showed up (First time I've ever seen that on this phone) and automatically upgraded the radio to JB again...dammit.
Anyway, here's the steps I took, so that maybe someone can get the ZV9 radio to work for JB.
LGNPST to ZV9
Installed Root, FreeeGee, put a ZVB TWRP backup on SD. (The restore I used was an IAJB1.1.0.- so stock basically)
Rebooted to TWRP, wiped cache, dalvic, factory reset, and system
Restored backup
Rebooted and hands-free activation kicked in as soon as I got reception.
My thought is that we CAN get this to work on JB if we get rid of hands-free activation. I did have reception for about 3 seconds.
Is hands free activation an apk somewhere? Maybe removing it might work (or not since I don't know anything about this stuff)

It is. But I can't remember what it showed.
Just tried it again, but this time with a backup of Imperium 201. Same thing happened, but I hit cancel this time and I still got updated to JB radio.
There's no way it had time to download and install a new radio. So now I'm thinking that somehow our radio is backed up in TWRP? Somewhere...somehow.
I'm not sure what else to try, and like I said it couldn't have installed a new radio that fast. My reception is not that great.
edit..update. Since I canceled the Handsfree update I thought I'd try to update profile, prl, and firmware. All 3 say "Authentication error" yet my phone still works. And my EFS info is all good. This is getting weird-er.
edit #2 After powering down and turning it on again I got Hands-free activation again. (Which is called Self Service apk?) I let it do its thing and still have Authentication error.
edit #3 Installed TheShadow1 ZVB radio.zip. And all is back to normal.
hands free activation has nothing to do with radio. it updates your data profiles and phone number/msid only.
after being on ZVB and flashing my ZV9 radio zip... the baseband says it stays the same.. so I'm assuming this is a cosmetic issue only.. and that the baseband will always say the same thing no matter which modem is really there.
Not sure there's any reason to downgrade your radio from ZVB to ZV9 other than testing "for science!"
Recently my phones reception is actually gotten worse. Yet when I go back and run a zv9 ROM, it seems better. Prime example for me is when I run xda app on zvb, the app locks up, like it loses reception.
On zv9, no issues.
Mind sharing your zv9 radio zip?
Sent from my LG-LS970 using xda premium
Hopefully you can figure this out, or just fix the zvb radios to work a little better.
I just decided to downgrade to ZV9 all together through LGNPST because to many things I didn't like about ZVB. Camera flash control is great again before it was unusable (camera is the main reason for getting the phone and the quad core), facebook integration wasn't there in ZVB, Media player didn't have equalizer any more. Just way to many things were cut out when they made ZVB for no reason...highly dissapointing, much happier now. On a side note it downloaded ZVB after I went back to ZV9 and now reminds me all the time that it's ready to install. Is there any way to delete that file and the one that automatically downloads it?
Lgota apk is one. Omadmclient apk might be another. But if I remember right that omadm one also might control our prl and profile. Loki and Adri would know for sure.
Edit. I rooted, unlocked with FreeGee, deleted LG?OTA apk, and accepted the update. It failed and no more notifications. Like you, I'm back to ZV9. Reception with ZVB was getting unbarable.

I just had to have my bean. I couldn't get the ZV9 radio to work with it, without killing Wifi
So I went with a completly stock ZVB and the radio seems to be doing better. I think that the build prop mods I had, Imperium and IAJB, just won't work well in my area. I know my Epic 4G didn't tolerate them either. Just something to try for those having reception issues on ZVB.

Not sure where the file is stored but you can definitely delete it. Here is how to stop the phone from nagging you to update:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2098477
Well I downloaded Autorun Manager from the Market, went into basic mode then disabled "Update Device" and seems to be working, no more reminders popping up all the time
Also now for some reason this go around on ZV9 System Tuner seems to be working great, I activate all core at all time ( like in ZVB ) and it is as smooth as I would say ZVB is. My phone is complete I believe...with a well working camera flash!
Any luck with this? The new radio had messed up texts for me. People get multiple texts when I'm in low signal. Never had that issue in ics

Are you interested in trouble shooting or are you to the point that you're set to jump back to ICS?
If you are interested in trying to figure out your issues; we'd need to know which FK23 you used to start. You said you were stock/unrooted so I'd assume you used the .tar file with Odin, but I don't want to assume.
Like third son, I use Fk23 as my dd and have, so far, had a great experience to my delight. I used the intial .tar with pc Odin.
I would start from scratch. Sounds like you got a flacky install.
I guess I can try again... I followed the youtube video from qbking77 so whatever the video used is what I used lol
I mean I like this update but to buggy for me
So ill give it one more try. Any other way to try it would be great

OP - Try this link. (I'm am not saying it's better than _dan's, Mattix's, garwynns / nor am I saying unrooted is better than rooted. I'm saying this is the build that's my DD and has been great for me.)
Be advised to backup everything important from your phone prior. Read everything and take your time. I know you were busy but don't rush.
If you have any questions, I'm sure there are a ton of people willing to answer.

I had some problems using AGATs recovery. I did an initial install of the TAR (which erased my internal SD) then I flashed the one click and AGAT ( when they were first posted.and had some screen brightness issues) I tried a nandroid with the recovery and it nuked all my apps. I went back to the TAR (with ODIN) and have rooted stock now with no problems. Used Titanium backup to rid myself of the Sprintware.

No, you don't have to reflash ICS. When you get home and if you have questions before hand, just ask.
Everything you mentioned works fine for me. Except apps disappearing from homepage, I got that too. Unless you move them to the internal sd it will keep happening. Hopefully that's fixed with FL04.. I have way too much apps and need as much on external as possible.

If you have the modem flashed already, don't worry about that one. Look on "about phone" to find out. The rooted one click will give you both kernel and rom. Are you familiar with how to do that? Not being a wise guy....just asking....

I experienced the problem of no data connection after flashing a new rom on my Optimus G. The phone needs to be reprogrammed, updating your PRL and Profile will NOT help. You must dial ##72786# this will start the handsfree activation and your phone will reboot a few times. It may take a few seconds in between steps of the activation and it will seem like nothing is happening. Just be patient and wait for everything to complete. When it is finished your phone's data connection will be working properly.

Some history,
I've been running Imperium and stockishv1 and v2 for a few days. I've made a couple backups along the way. About an hour ago I lost data. The phone works and makes calls, but my data is dead.
I've tried update profile and prl, and all I get is" Network error" I've tried this many times throughout all these steps.
I've restored backups, pre-Imperium and Stockishv1 with the same results.
I tried the procedure in this thread and still nothing.
Anybody have any other ideas? Would LGNPST restore the phones modem?

I killed the connection optimizer while I was at work because I can't use work's wifi and listen to my icecast station I setup.
This killed my data connection and immediately put my phone into roaming. I rebooted like three times and finally my data came back (i also updated the PRL and the Profile, not sure which fixed it but something did)
From the things you guys speak of, I would guess the same issue is at hand.

Try the G2 thread, I'm sure if you post in the exact same section over there you might have better results. General answer is that it is probably APN settings. Find an app, enter them, set it, and reboot (might not need to reboot).

Hi.
I have a Galaxy s3 videotron t999v. I rooted and flashed the rom Frosty, illusion and CM10. I still have the same problem no GPS signal with google navigation. I went back to the stock rom with odin and make the ICS update for jellybean. Still the same problem no GPS signal.
Anyone has a solution or has had the same thing with Galaxy s3 Vieotron or Tmobile.

I have the GPS icon in the notification bar but no signal. I tried on the market (GPS Status and GPS data) for more than 15 minutes outside with a clear sky with no results. I can not believe I'm the only one with this problem.
I hope there is someone here who can help us.
If your phone is rooted, try downloading 'fasterfix' from the play store and use it to set your location.
Use 'GPS Status & Toolbox' to redo your aGPS data afterwards and see if it that helps as well.
Try to leave it running for 2 mins outdoors, stationary. Set the program to leave the display on when that application is running. I think it should work better afterwards.

I'll remove xposed then.
I try using freegee to unlock but it said my version was too new and i needed a special code. After i got it , it said something about storing download mode somewhere in my phone.
Next i tried using the teeny bins , it unlocked but it wouldn't let my phone boot after i would install a rom?

Not quite sure I understand what you did.
I think you need to do a factory reset. But you might lose your SD.

Sounds like a bad flash / corrupted system. I am inclined to agree that you need to do a factory reset first, however you will more then likely lose your SD contents. A very good rule of thumb is to remember if you are flashing a ROM based from stock and you are one / stock it's self, you should be good. Same works for CM based ROM's going from one to another tends to do pretty well, it's the crossing of the guards so to speak that tends to cause issues.
Personally if I could get in my phone I would back up everything and flash stock rom > factory reset > root/unlock > wipe everything in recovery except internal (SD) and then flash ROM/Gapps.
GL!
So I failed to update , now it can't update it says im lastest version but im still in ZVB?

Just flash a factory ZVB image (unmodified other than root & unlocked) through recovery. Follow the steps in the linked post below to update to ZVC (works with TWRP recovery) without too much hassle (uses Rootkeeper & Freegee). No computer needed and -worked great! Took under 10 mins during work break!, No loss of apps / data / sdcard.

Not much new. Here's a post about the update. Your root, and Freegee and the teeny bins all work.
ZVC bin added. Please thank tommyjoesanders here. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2437284
My upload was bad, so I won't have another one til tomorrow.
Changes found so far:
Roaming popup still keeps showing up after being checked
less than 10 character texts work now
Avoid poor wifi connections is still messed up.
tommyjoesanders - They sure did fix auto brightness sensors, wifi and signal locks on better and they updated most the pre installed apps from google.
The modem/radio seems to be the same. But tommyjoe says they made improvements in other ways.

I'm just happy to have the under 10 Char message fixed. Those rejections sucked.
I've tried this and i get an error trying to update.
idk how i got here...

Just a quick follow up (after updating and going back to root/unlock). The biggest change I've noticed with the update is the radio performance. They've definitely improved in that area. I especially notice this when indoors at work where I RARELY (as in almost never) got a 4G connection. Now I get a solid 3 bars indoors. Same with at home where my connection period was spotty (apparently my house sits in a gray zone). Which is why I always just used WiFi at home. But just to check, disabled WiFi and now I get a steady 3G connection (I never ever got a 4G connection at home so I wasn't expecting to now).

You figure this out yet? Restore your EFS with the same ROM you backed it up in. ie Stock, OpTimuS, nexogen
I'll look at my ESN in I few and see if it is 8 digits. Gotta restore to stock first.

Do you have a stock backup to restore with? Try that. Either way, I'm guessing you're doing the update profile/prl also.
I know 4G/LTE has been giving me issues for a while, so I have to manually turn it on. Sucks, cuz I can get 4G, but my area is too weak to keep it. If I leave 4G on, I'll loose all reception.
On stockish roms, go to Settings>More>Mobile Networks>Network Mode, and select CDMA.
Then try update profile/prl. Maybe it'll work. Although when you update, everything reverts back to 4G if you have it, and you'll have to turn it off again.
Hope that all makes sense. :silly:

For the data? Or LGNPST.
I can't remember for sure, but LGNPST doesn't wipe data. The only thing I can think of to hopefully get your phone working again is to do a Factory reset. You'll have stock recovery now and I'm pretty sure a Factory reset will wipe everything. SD included. So save whatever files you need, then, in the root guide is how to get into stock recovery and how to navigate it. Let's hope this gets your phone working right again.

Yeah. In stock recovery it's called Factory reset. If this doesn't get you going, LGFlashtool might now that your are Factory Stock
---------- Post added at 10:10 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:03 PM ----------
You shouldn't need this but just in case. LGFlashtool. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2443185
It uses .tot instead of .bin. You should just be able to change the extension on your bin file to .tot. But it does use a different dll. Hopefully it's, it's own DL.

Will report back soon! Thanks!!
Edit 1. Tried Factory reset and LGFlashtool but No luck, no LTE.... I think i'm loosing all data(1x, 3g, 4g) if eHRDP enabled in ##data# > advanced settings but I can get 3g when eHRDP disabled but no 4g..
Edit 2. I don't know how to disable eHRDP with CM11 based ROM, guessing this is why I'm not getting any data connection with those..

This is really weird. With stock, you should get everything as far as reception. And your EFS seems intact. Maybe Sprint is working, or is having issues with the towers.
I haven't ran LGFlashtool for a long time, but doesn't that give you the Handsfree activation?
You could also try, on stock, Settings>Activate Device. Maybe?
I'm running Blue Lightning, and that's CM based. Try going to Settings>More>Mobile Networks>Preferred Network type and select 3G. See if that works. For me, if I select LTE, and I lose LTE reception, my reception will lock up and I have to either reboot or select 3G and reboot.
I'd say stay on stockish Rom's until you get this figured out. Then move on.
Other than the above, I'm at a loss.

Yes, it ran activation process automatically but no lte even after activation.. I don't think it is tower issue cause my gf's galaxy s3 and mom's note2 having lte in my house.. It is definitely my phone's problem.. Can it be an apn problem? I'd better call and ask sprint about this?
Add. Oh, I also tried cm/asop/aokp based roms, but they not even giving me 3g even though I change preferred network to 3g.. freaking weird.,
