recently i bought a f180L having stock firmware 4.1.2 than i followed following tutorial symbianize .com/showthread.php?t=1103182
and converted it to e975 and installed ind fw and flashed f180L baseband and also unlocked edge all was ok till here. than i rooted it tried to install
cwmr using rom manager but when i booted the mobile and pressed vol down and power it didnt went to recovery than i pressed vol up and
pressed power here where it stuck with security boot loop so i again flashed the f180L orig fw and here when problem started as there was
NO SIGNAL. now i read many threads here in xda also tried many firmwares also installed ics 4.0.4 no signal but when i installed a 18mb update
for ics 4.0.4 using built in updater full signal came back but when i switched off the phone and turn it on again there,s no signal also installed
open europe 10h firmware the phone shows weak signals and some time no signal. i have tried many basebands using cwmr too but still no
signal. now i totally fedup and tired i think i made a mistake by not taking efs backup with original firmware. what should i do now ?

Extract folder "BaseBandF180L_OK" (there was no problem in WIN7 with this procedure) and then:
- connect the phone to USB in MTP MODE and copy "BASEBAND.IMG" to SDCARD ROOT
- check "DEVICE MANAGER-ADB INTERFACE-LG "something"" (it should be OK - only if hou have installed drivers in WinXPMode and you are connecting the phone in WIN7 then you have to install those 3 files from point 2 and 3 above)
- so if you see ADB Interface for LG, you copied the IMG file to SDCARD and your phones ROOT is OK then ...
- just run "FLASH_BASEBAND.BAT" and wait for restart
- now you should be asked for PIN (if you use it ) and you should get a signal (greditsfor all this i going To Happy_Alien)not me

restore efs(i didnot do that but only flash baseband) and then flash the baseband.be sure that your phone is rooted ,mtp mode,usb debagging and uknown sourses enabled.try to flash jelly bean not ics.
the baseband you have is from jelly bean

ok so i fllashed f180L 20T (there was no signal) than rooted it installed freegee and took the efs backup than i flashed ind kdz (phone started to get weak signals which disappear after few seconds) than i installed freegee and restore efs and than flashed the f180L baseband and still no signal and also now imei status showing unknown no, i think i have messed up the original baseband which comes with the phone pre installed and didnt took the efs backup at that time, now i m totally clueless.

Hey everybody, Hope u r all doing well..
Here is my problem
I installed leaked rom 4.3 through odin on my N7100 device and was working well
then it started to be slow so I flashed 4.1.2 rom via odin, and found that my imei has been changed to strange one with a message not registered on a network
I searched the forum and figured out that flashing xxdme4 modem will resolve the problem
So I flashed this modem through recovery and the IMEI turned back to the correct one, but still not registered on a network
Things I tried
flashed 4.1.1 stock rom, changed the imei
flashed xxdmb5 rom , changed the imei
installed Ariza Patch on 4.1.2 , it makes my imei 009444 and corrupted it with no network
flashed xxdme4 Modem, it makes my imei correct
also xxdmf1 modem, makes my imei correct
I returned back to 4.3 , the imei is correct and also not registered on a network, I cant make calls
I flashed the new modem of the leaked 4.3 xxuemj5 on 4.3 rom, Also not registered on network but imei is correct
I flashed criskello custom rom 4.1.2, The imei is correct but also not registered..
Here Is the Strange part, when I call the sim in my n7100 from another phone, It rings as it is working, but I have nothing on the screen. also when I turn off my n7100, and call it , it is said that it is turned off. also the signal bars increase and decrease according to the area am moving in.. So I assume that this is not a hardware problem
also I thought to go to warranty , so I flashed stock ddmc3 rom, but the imei changed and when I flash xxme4 modem it is back, and I reseted the flash counter. but the modem is not corresponding to the rom, so it will be refused at warranty, and I cant install higher roms, cuz this is the latest rom for the region Egypt, where I live.
The Sim card is working in other phones, Also I tried many simcards
So I have a working device with 4.1.2 Stock rom and Xxdme4 modem, my imei is correct, baseband and everything
Sorry for ur time reading this, But to make everything Clear..
thanks in advance
Hey there... I actually faced a similar problem with the galaxy s3...similar symptoms.. .sane strange behaviour. ...except that my imei was altered.... I couldn't do anything to rectify it...as I hadn't backed up es folder....If you have backed it up...It may work if you restore it.....I made my s3 by sending it to a repair center...not samsung....and they fixed it....hope this helps...sorry about your phone
thanks for your reply,, I don't have efs backup.
Also My imei is Correct, it it Not Altered.
I am sure it is a software problem and I really need a solution
hope someone will help me.
Is there anyway to completely delete everything, repartition the device and start all over ??
If your imei is correct then use ariza patch it will fix your problem
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda premium
Thanks for trying to help. But i think u didn't read what i have done above.. my imei is correct with modem xxme4 and when i install ariza. It alters my imei. So ariza generate fake one and doesnt work
Any help??
Not Registered On Network
I am facing the same issue... flashed the Leaked 4.3 jelly bean leaked version bu somehow Wi-fi was not working. So i tried switching back to old 4.1.2 jelly bean. And since tehn I'm facing this issue. And after looking for some solution i came accorss this section on XDA... and realized my IMEI no. has also changed as you mentioned above...
I have no solution to this issue... just guessing because I read somewhere 4.3 comes with region lock feature and once installed you cannot switch back to the previous verison of Android OS... Can this be the issue... ??
If thats the case then I am assuming re-flashing leaked 4.3 should fix it but you mentioed above even that didnt wokrk.
I havent tried anything yet to fix it... downloading the most recent official 4.1.2 jelly bean rom (N7100XXDMG1) available for my region and see how it goes... Though I'm not very positive about it as you have already tried this...
Is there any one who can help us out.. ??

Hi,
I re-flashed the Old Stock Jelly Bean, the one I already had on my system (N7100XXDLL4_N7100ODDDLL2_INU). Even after flashing it I was getting the same error as mentioned above and then came across another page on XDA which mentioned about this issue...
I tried installing the relevant modem for my phone rom and region which fixed it... may be the modem that you have flashed is not relavant for your region and rom. You can go through the link and see what I am talking about.... It kinda worked for me...

I had been thru the same problem. I flashed a prerooted 4.1.2, rooted it again as it was giving some error, and then patched ariza. I have done this several times as I have been constantly trying to flash 4.3 which always resulted in emergency calls only, once I lost imei after patching ariza, so I flashed. DLK7 or DL7 modem forgot the actual name but you can search by my name to find that post. I have already posted about the working modem.

Sorry to hear that it didnt work for you.... Seems like you are not getting the correct modem file for your region & Rom, the only thing that I can think of right now is to check with your friend who owns Galaxy Note 2 and can extract the Modem file using the method mentioned in the link i shared earlier :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2044937
And use this file to flash on your Note2. Also, confirm the status of Note 2 of your friend whether it is locked by some carrier/network provider or Factory unlocked, should be same as yours (Not really sure if that can cause any issue but just want to avoid any further issues that might crop up).
All The Best.
Thanks!
efs restoring query??
hello everyone, i ve a efs backup, backedup wen im running on 4.3 (xxuemj5). is it possible to go back to 4.1.2 (N7100XXDMB2) and restore tat backup (backed up on 4.3)? i had a prob (" not registered on a network") last time wen i went back to 4.1.2.
thanks in advance-
Some times we have to replace the SIM card.
When IMEI becomes invalid the service provider blocks the SIM card.
Try your SIM card in some other phone before replacing it.
dear bro.
i had the same problem with my n 7100 i hope this ll work with u

google this (GT-N7100_ModemMJ9) u ll find it
this worked for me but with this modem u ll get poor signal than other devices . its better than nothing any way .
Dr Ketans roms has an option to fix the network issue in aroma instaler of his rom, can you try with this.. Or other option, if you want to return to the 4.1.2 try flash the rom 4.1.2, install a custom kernel, apply ariza patch and them apply an efs restore.
So I was running on stock, rooted rom. Everything was working well. But I wanted to get rid of the Korean apps.
soI flashed a stock based rom found here:

So I went back to stock by following the guide here:

Again it was successful but my phone does not read my sim anymore.
I tried different working sim, same problem
Tried reflashing. same thing.
Also I noticed it does not show my phone IMEI under phone identity.
Can anyone help me how to fix this, or point me to a guide I could follow?

Any luck in fixing this problem? I'm having the same issue after trying to install Update v5 with Knock On. I tried installing the basebands but most of them will give Service Disabled with Unknown IMEI. But the E988_HK_Final baseband shows the IMEI and Phone Number but has No Service though or very weak signal. Also, it seems like the QRemote also stops working in my case.
Please flash LG F240L Rom (KDZ File), It will work,

It looks like your EFS partition is corrupted. Did you back it up through Freegee before installing the custom ROM?

I had this happen to me with an e980 out of the box. I ordered it online, and was in the process of adding my apps and customization without ever rooting it or doing anything outside of warranty and all of a sudden I got "Insert a valid sim card". Just happened out of the blue and I only had that phone for 12 hours. It is some rare hardware issue that AT&T couldn't figure out either. I believe it is the sim slot that is malfunctioning because in mine it wouldn't recognize any sim card but my sim cards worked in other phones.
If you have a contract phone, undo root, flash the stock rom, factory reset and call tech support. They replaced mine for free because it was determined to be a hardware issue. Good luck.:silly:
Problem
I Brought A new Gpro on 21st Dec E988 India, it worked fine for a week , Then I rooted it using the Sticky thread By ballshanglow.
Next day I see my 2G n/w signals are gone totally , I switch to 3G/WCDMA and Bam it works both voice data , but switching back to 2G still doesnt work.
What i tried
Factory reset using Power + Vol Down button : Problem still persists
Flashed original KDZ E988 10e India with Flash Tool : Problem Still persists
Flashed stick rom via Lg support tool : Problem Still Perists , still only 3G no 2G
Then
I thought Maybe it's a BB issue , but doesnt flashing stock KDZ as i did before restore the original BB ?
Anyways
1) I rooted my phone using the same method as above
2) Installed Latest Freegee
3) Installed CWM from there
4) Flashed a certain E988 10a(India) BB and Rebooted from CWM
Bam a bootloop , Now what should I do , I am stuck with no 2G network at all?
Request/Advice/ Suggestion
There is an awesome Thread which keeps track of all Stock KDZ
there should be a similar thread that keeps track of all latest BB too , Currently I see individual Devs have BB for somemodels or just a few BB in their own cloud and all of them are scattered .I would request some Senior Member here to create one thread as sticky so as to help every newbie.
Many people on different models of Gpro are having problems with CWM installed with freegee , some have touch problems on TWRP , i had them too , it would be good if the sticky threads could recommend which one to use.
Sticky threads should also explain the what all models our phone has , Concept of Recovery , BB , Modem , firmware as only people who have flashed a rom earlier would be aware of these terms , for others it might be rocket science
Personal Help
1) after a lot of searching I found E988 10a BB (India) , Does anyone know a newer version ?
2) Since CWM from freegee gave me Bootloop , can someone tell me which Recovery should i use CWM,TWRP or Philz touch and if cwm or Twrp how to install them aside from freegee?
Thanks Everyone who has took the pains of reading my Post and also to the one who try to help.

So I flashed E988 10a my BB was stll showing -APQ8064/MDM9x15M ais it nd problem didnt solve
So i flashed E988 HK BB my BB is still showing -APQ8064/MDM9x15M

My Optimus G Pro F240L was somehow soft bricked for a month after trying to install a version of CM11. I have tried to download many dfferent F240L .TOT files to get it back to life on Baidu, all files were corrupted, at least for me, and i had the low battery warning when trying to flash official .KDZ .

same issue
I have LG Optimus GPro F240L too, I tried to flash CM11 ROM but it was brick, the same like you. But I flash TOT file back OK. Now i can root and install CWM through FreeGee, but when flash CM base ROM it doesn't boot, only stock base ROM work. Someone tell my why please !
Well in fact I have tried AICP here, and it works pretty well and very fast.
Install it through Freegee and TWRP. However, I get signal, but whenever I try to make a call, the phone reboots. If I try to install the baseband, the phone gets bricked.
Otherwise a search on google for F240L CM11 gives many results, even on XDA. I didn't have time to try yet. But on E980 official ROM, Antutu has a score of 22500 which is far better than my 19600 with official F240.

I have a F240L works with CM11 perfectly.
Only issue i noticed whichever ROM i use i never get SimToolKit(STK) to work even in stock korean ROMs.
I moved to RadeonMAYA ROM as it has the best battery life as compared to the G2 V5 ROM and CM11.
As for the rebooting during phone calls just install ALSA drivers using the guide here on this general section and it will work.
Though you'll have reenable it evertime on Reboots which is a PITA.
Did you have weather effect at lockscreen my friend?
Thanks, I will try alsa drivers. Yesterday I have tried a PACMAN rom downloaded here, and it works wonderful without doing anything. Calls, data network, wifi have no problem at all.
Slimkat 4.4.2 is also there. Not tried yet.

do you know if its a problem when i flash this on 16gb model an flash another rom after the phone is unbricked?
Low battery warning will be gone for sure. Though I'm not sure about the dll, maybe get one for e986.
You can flash on a 16gb no problem.

I am new and have a question. I have followed all the steps to the tee for unbricking my F240L and turning into a E980, except using king root to root the phone. After rebooting everything has worked perfectly except I can only get 4G speed and cannot get 4G LTE on t-mobile which is available in my area? It is on 4.1.2 and I have also correctly loaded all the APN codes for t-mobile. Maybe it is not possible to get 4G LTE after converting the F240L into a E980? I am open to any suggestions.
Do you know where i can get F240 TOT file?
I'm trying this on my comming F240. And luckily make it a E980, thanks!

I guess you now have to flash official F240L .KDZ as it will work flawlessly and hope you get 4G LTE (I think it is the same as 4G, I may be wrong)
I do not know myself as it is difficult to download from Baidu websites, just use the E980 .TOT file with the guide and uou will be fine. After that you can flash any .KDZ
Hello everyone! As I am new here I'd like to say HI to XDA community!
Okay, what I've done so far is this to my E975 INTL
Rooted, bootloader unlocked and CWM by MAKO method (No problems)
Upgraded to CM12 (No problems)
Restored Nandroid (No problems)
Upgraded to ARTMOD V6 (PROBLEM: Turned to F180L and bricked)
After two days of brick I used LG S/W Update tool and upgraded my phone.... It upgraded to F180L30c .... I want to revert to my own E975 INTL.... How's that possible? Used KDZ method from Upgrader and it won't work.... It would unpack E97510c KDZ and then my phone would boot into fastboot menu... And then nothing... How to make it work? If any other method then please tell me what is it... Please I need help to get rid of this Korean ROM (KK 4.4.2)
Software Upgrade [KDZ] gives errors:
WParam: 100
LParam: 210
I am really disappointed that no one replied on my previous questions... Only 100+ views.

What helped with me is just to flash a kitkat stock rom and flash a e975 modem afterwards. ARTmod is a e975 rom so I dont get how you ran into this problem. Flash an earlier version of ARTmod. Im running ARTmod 5,5 after running into the same problem after flashing sling rom. I hope this works for you
Thanks.... Just a little help

I dont think it has much to do with the rom itself, you need to flash the baseband again. Usually that works with other roms.
