[Q] [SOLVED] How to update baseband version from Custom ROM?

I am currently on CM10.1 for Galaxy Grand (Custom ROM) and right now the baseband version i have is I9082XXAMD1. The latest updates to stock ROM through Samsung, updates the baseband version to I9082XXAME4.
How can i update my baseband version while using CM10.1?
With AMD1, CM10.1 is running absolutely fine (disregarding the bugs known). If i update to AME4, can it (will it) somehow affect the functioning of phone/call feature ?
Anyone?
You get no reply because you seem to confuse "baseband" to "firmware" version. The firmware XXAMF7 has baseband XXAMC4. Baseband pertains to the modem. If you have dual sim grand it will surely enable 2 sims on XXAMF7. CM10.1 works only on 1 sim.

Thanks for correcting me. I edited my question for future references.
Now to my question, how am I supposed to get my baseband version updated while staying on CM10.1?
Rejocie001, how did u get urs updated? U flashed stock rom to update the baseband and then back to CM10.1?

I flashed stock ROM then revert back to cm10.1
From galaxy grand CM 10.1 firmware..
Worked. I hoped there would be an easier way though.

No.. there is no other easier way.. If you flash only the kernel file.. U will get unknown baseband issue.. So better flash the stock firmware then revert back to cm10.1.. this is the safest method..

Maybe flashing the modem not the kernel will solve the OP problem? AFAIK kernel flashing does not change the baseband. Pull the modem.img from the stock then add it to rar using winrar for example then flash over cm10.1 using odin. Anyway I have not tried it so OP you are on your own.

Why you don't try out to install rom through official recovery already installed in Grand.
I've got the same dilemma, I've got an s4, so I flash stock rom, then have to root that rom after update and reflash cyanogenmod?

Samsung s4 phones are gimmicky with lots of bloatwares.

No straight way to update baseband version
I'm on an i9295 with CM11, but the baseband (modem) version is leftover from the stock Touchwiz 4.2.2 I was using ages ago. It doesn't seem to be any fast/smart way to update it. I'll have to spend some time on this. The only way I can think of is the one proposed by rejocie001. I'll have to flash a newer Touchwiz firmware, which will update the baseband version, then I'll have to push CWM via Odin, which will hopefully allow me to flash the CM11 zip again.
If anyone has a better way to do it, please speak up, it can save me a lot of trouble. Don't leave me in the dark here.
Thanx.

Open your dailpad and tap *#*#4636#*# it will appear device information and change your network into lte mode that's it
I found these links helpful (for Samsung)

Does flashing CM10.2 work with the latest AT&T 4.1.2 bootloader?

Has anyone flashed CM10.2 using the latest bootloader from the AT&T 4.1.2 update? I've read where you need the 4.1.1 bootloader in order to flash previous AOSP-based roms.

I am currently running PwnCakes CM 10.2 latest update with the new bootloader and it is running smooth.

CM implemented the latest bootloaders in the updater script during the 10.1 nightlies about a month ago.

[Q] Will my 4.3 work with 4.1.1 baseband? SGH-T99?

The title explains my question, will sombody tell me the answer?
i updated my s3 (SGH-T999) to 4.3 without sim unlocking and now the i downgrade i keep loosing imei (null / null) :crying:
I did a backup of my EFS on 4.3 and tryed restoring it on 4.1.2 and 4.1.1 and it just didnt work
i heard on a thread that if you are on 4.1.2 and want to sim unlock your device you dont have to downgrade firmware to 4.1.1 you'll just have to downgrade the baseband thank you for your atention i hope to see an answer soon
It won't, and if I'm not mistaken the unlock method won't work at all if you do the official 4.3 update, even if you downgrade basebands

Dont try it,after you flashed kitkat there was a warning that you can not revert back(downgrade) to a lower firmware,there is no way yet.
