[Q]What's the difference between BASEBAND, RADIO and MODEM? - LG Optimus G (International)

Hi. I am a little bit confused between the difference of the these three files. Can someone explain the differences and what they are for? Thanks!

Same thing.

Yep. Same thing,but every manufacturer called it differently : samsung-modem,sony-baseband,htc-radio.

As I figured it out. Just the same. Thanks to you guys! For clarification, when going back to my Stock KDZ, do I have to flash any baseband or modem after KDZ flashing? So far I have no problem with my flashing KDZ's.

Nope.Just flash kdz. Root,unlock and use the tutorial from my signature . Or you can use Epsilon rom. tweak as well with xposed .

KDZ replaces everything. So you will have stock modem back.

[q] lg g2 ls980 zvc roms??

I want to flash a custom rom to my LS980.
I have the new ZVC update, and have TWRP due to flashing the ZV8 Bootimg.
Is it now possible because I did this to flash Roms compatable with ZV8 and up?
I have a .tot file, but would rather not have to go thru that again..

Radio , Modem and Baseband , differences?

Sorry for my noob question!! Do "RADIO , MODEM and BASEBAND" have same meanings in LG Optimus G and other mobile phones or they are different things? Because in Optimus G we can erase radio and erase modem separately through fastboot!
Thanks...
Any help?!
I have no idea about those two separate erase options you are talking about, but typically all three words are used interchangeably. Same thing, no difference.
Ok good, thanks! I was confused about them. For each custom or stock ROM we have special baseband (radio, modem) ?

No. Baseband/radio/modem is not specific to a particular ROM, but rather to a carrier or a country/area. Most ROMs don't include a baseband, so when you flash a ROM, your original baseband stays unchanged. Unless there is an indication that a particular baseband would be a better choice for that ROM, you should be good with what you've got.
You WILL reflash your baseband if you flash a stock KDZ, because KDZ image replaces everything, including bootloader, baseband, and recovery.

Thanks friend final and last question
You mean if I flash an stock KDZ that is android 4.1.2 , then I use freegee to unlock bootoader and install a custom 4.4.2 ROM that is without baseband/radio , can this 4.4.2 ROM works with stock original baseband/radio that is unchanged?

Yes, it should work. I personally couldn't make 4.4 work with my Korean baseband, but it's related to the F180 -> E975 "conversion", which is messy, and is known to cause some weird issues. For the actual E975 (or other non-Korean variants), it should be just fine.

Brazilian variant (e977) loses LTE when using custom rom, Brazilian lte frequency is different from the European.

[D855] not rooted, need help flash modem

Hey guys
So here is my problem.
My GPS is really bad at the moment. I just found out its because it's not the best version of the modem that's inside. 20a instead of 21c.
So I would like to flash it into 21c.
Since my phone is not rooted, is that a pb?
If not, can you guys gimme a hand to flash it?
I downloaded a .zip file with the right version of the modem on a different thread. But what do I do with it?
I tried to follow the "go to recovery" as mentioned but I just don't know where to go.
Therefore can I update to 6.0 without losing all my files? And then switch back the modem from 30B (6.0) to 21C ?
Thanks
