[Q] problem with nexus 7 v2 lte baseband code in the netherlands - Paranoid Android Q&A

hey all
us people in the netherlands have been shafted by vodafone nl and google.. our baseband code after the 4.4.3 update is wrong..therefore no cell coverage
so after finding this out i quickly unlocked, rooted my n7v2lte and loaded pa.. ( ive been in happy mode ever since. enjoying all the freedom that goes with PA )
but i still dont have the correct baseband code.
ive asked a few peoples about how to flash a different baseband code but no luck.
so to get to the point of my post
can i flash back to the factory 4.4.2 image to my n7 without loosing everything again
to go throught all the unlocking, rooting and installing rom toolbox. twrp and pa again ( note : the lastest version pa from the site gives me the 4.4.4 update will this revert my baseband code for 4.4.2 to 4.4.4 ?)
its alot of flashing and redoing stuff..
im really into customising my device and using a custom rom like pa
if i does require me to flash back to 4.4.2.factory.img no prob . i just wanted to check with you knowledgable peeps first. and see what comes of it...

baseband = radio
The PA rom doesnt touch the radio at all. All you need to do is flash the radio for your device. There should be no need to go through all those steps just to get the correct radio.
PS. There is no reason to go through the unlocking/root/rom toolbox stuff. If you flash to stock rom via fastboot, all you have to do is simply flash a custom recovery and load the rom. Installing a custom rom does not require any special apps and does not require root.

Ok thanks
So now how do I flash the radio
Or should I move to a different forum topic for that
Oh yeah absolutely loving pa right now

There are many tutorials on flashing a radio. Using flashify from within the ROM is the easiest option. The other option would be to use your computer and fastboot flash it.

[Q] One V cdma boot problem. please help

Hey guys my buddy asked me to root rom and install a kernel on his one v from virgin mobile. being as i have done this before to multiple phones i was happy to help. i unlocked the bootloader, rooted it. everything was smooth up til there. i did not put a rom on it yet because he urged me to install a kernel so he could overclock his one v. i was aprehensive but i did it anyway. now his phone wont work. im not surprised but i need to fix it. ive tried installing roms to make it work because the backup ive created in twrp wont boot. so im thinking its a kernel problem. no matter what rom i use it will either not boot it will freeze at the screen that says htc and with the red wording below it. or it will boot into the rom and then freeze or run for about 30 sec then restart and it will repeat this until it dies. ive looked everywhere for ways to get it back to stock ive flashe countless roms none work ive flashed many kernels and none work as well. please help. i would like to get it working on a rom with a working kernel but i will put it back to stock if i have to. any help is greatly appreciated. thank you for your time.
You could flash a ruu ....but the problem is you don't have your software number ...or you have to go to another Rom ...which will make the phone boot normally .but don't forget to flash its specific kernel ...if you don't so that the Rom won't boot
What he said. I recommend using the RUU to restore back to stock.
Re-reroot/unlock it, then read more on which kernel to use. You most likely are using the wrong kernel.
What rom are you using currently - ?
What Kernel did you flash - ?
What error do you get with TWRP - ?
ive only been able to get a couple roms to actually boot. the one that is on it now is Amazing Sense. there is no kernel to flash with this rom and no boot.img for it either. i believe it is included. i have decided to RUU and try everything from the beginning. however i cannot find the RUU for HTC One V in the USA on Virgin Mobile. if you could post a link to that i would be very grateful. i dont see any errors on TWRP and i believe it is the stock rom i flashed last. but like i said with the rom im on it is included, so whatever is on there. thanks again for your help guys.
just curios would the sprint ruu work on the virgin mobile one? it may sound dumb but i have seen people use the recovery.img from it. was just wondering if it would brick the device or not. because i still havent found an RUU for virgin mobile one v in the US.

Ok. That's good. You use the same ICS kernel with the same ICS roms. No need to keep reflashing. I wouldn't flash a JB rom using a ICS kernel though.
Use this zip - http://androidfiles.org/uploads/index.php?dir=PrimoC/Kernels/ics
1. Extract the Boot.img from that zip and Fastboot flash boot boot.img in Bootloader
2. Wipe everything. Factory Reset, Dalvik, and System.
3. Flash an ICS based rom, Sense, or CM9.
4. Flash this after rom to get wifi working the zip above or below to fix Wifi.
http://androidfiles.org/uploads/index.php?dir=PrimoC/Kernels/ics
Just ran the RUU and it did work everything is back to stock. the sprint RUU worked. i ran into a snag installing the Android SDK it wouldnt recognize that i had my Java JDK. even after messing with my registry it still wouldnt work so i just downloaded the x86 jdk and it worked. its unfortunate cuz now i have a jdk in x64 and x86 and its taking up space on my ssd. oh well i hope it doesnt mess with eclipse. i am now going to unlock the bootloader again and re root it and install probably cm9. thank you for all your help i will post again after i attempt to re unlock reroot and rom. thanks again

cannot flash new AOKP (error 7)!!!!

hi guys,
I have a galaxy s3, in Canada, and cannot flash the newest AOKP (aokp_d2att_ota-eng-task650_7.20.2013b), I downloaded the I747MVLDLK4_aio.tar.md5 file and flashed it with odin as per instructions, then did a format,cache wipe/dalvik wipe, then try and write the new ROM, and all i get is error 7! ive tried it a few times! All i can say is im sure glad i did a NAND backup before i tried.
i dont understand whats wrong? i wasnt sure if i did the bootloader file right, but i followed directions, i put the phone in write mode, opened odin, clicked PDA, chose the file, and it wrote fine.no errors or anything. is there something i maybe missed?
can someone help me out?
TIA,
GINNZ
Maybe check to see if you have the latest recovery installed

If you're in Canada chances are you're running the d2can recovery that the phone wants. You need to flash either the d2att recovery Odin from the twrp website or do a quick search for the latest tarp or cwm flashable zip files.
Status 7 can be
a) out of date bootloader
b) out of date recovery
or for Canadians
c) d2can recovery when the Roms are requiring d2att

Ok, thanks, I had an older version of AOKP running, which was released in December or so, and the recovery flashed was "RecoveryGalaxyS3USCanada.tar", I thought the new I747M4LDLK4 file was all i needed to flash this newer rom?
What exactly do i need? Im sorry for so many questions, but this just isnt making sense to me.... I managed to root the phone initially last year, and havn't done anything with it since.
so what is the newer I747M4LDLK4 file that i flashed with Odin for? Is the recovery initially flashed not the right one? if not, which one is needed, and how do i flash it? Id imagine with Odin, if so, do i just flash it the same as the I747M4LDLK4 file (PDA)?
im almost there, i just need a small push in the right direction....
Thanks for all your help so far, and please bare with me. I was an Apple jailbreaker for years, so this stuff is pretty foreign to me still.
---edit---
ok, so i went to twrp and found 2 recovery's, one is "openrecovery-twrp-2.6.0.0-d2att.tar" and one is "openrecovery-twrp-2.6.0.0-d2can.tar", this is where im confused, should i flash the "d2att", or the "d2can"? I mean, im in Canada, on MTS, and flashed the I747M4LDLK4, which was meant for Canada already....
also, can someone please clarify what the I747M4LDLK4 file is? it clearly states that canadian users MUST flash this before flashing the new AOKP, as it wont wont flash without it.... I did that, and still get Error7, now im looking at a new "recovery" as well, as i hope this will fix my error 7 issue. No where in the massive AOKP thread did it say that a different recovery would be needed as well, only the new I747M4LDLK4_aio.tar.md5 file!
so, anyways, if i flash a new recovery, (all i need to know is which one at this point), then i should be able to flash the new (AOKP) rom? i really dont wanna brick this thing, and i wish there wasnt so much confusion with the d2att/d2can files. it would seem completely logical that i would need the d2can file, but who knows, .... there was some sort of error on my phone when i tried to flash the ROM last night and d2att was in it somewhere......
im assuming the I747M4LDLK4_aio.tar.md5 is the bootloader, if so, i have the most recent one flashed now, so i must be getting the error because my recovery is out of date? i think im almost there, all i need is to know which recovery to flash, and i should be golden! the original recovery that is on the phone now from my first AOKP flash is "RecoverygalaxyS3USCanada.tar"

Okay, first thing first. You are reading WAY TOO MUCH into this, You need to slow down and do some reading on what is what for your phone.
There is no confusion about d2can and d2att in here. Here it is as simple as I can explain.
You live in Canada (as do I) our phones are SGH-I747M when you install a custom recovery (Clockworkmod or TWRP) The phone is registered as a Canadian model. The developers on this forum build ROMS for d2att only. They just happen to work on our phones as they are identical. To be able to flash these ROMS on our Canadian phones you have to flash the d2att recovery (Clockworkmod or TWRP)
So my suggestion was to make sure you have flashed the d2att recovery to your phone. You can get the Odin files from the websites or a quick search here would get you the flashable .zip files you would flash in recovery like a ROM (no wiping needed though)
Anything on THIS FORUM ONLY will not brick your device. Anything labelled under anything outside this forum ie. i9300 (International S3) or the other carriers will cause harm to your phone and you'll be a sad panda.
I747M4LDLK4 is your bootloader.
What Is A Bootloader?
In literal terms, bootloader is code that is executed before any Operating System starts to run. The concept of bootloaders is universal to virtually all Operating systems that inculcates operating systems on your PC, laptop, smartphones, and other such devices. Bootloaders basically package the instructions to boot operating system kernel and most of them also have their own debugging or modification environment. As the bootloader kicks off before any piece of software on your device, it makes it extremely processor specific and every motherboard has it’s own bootloader. This is one reason that all Android phones have different Custom ROMS developed due to high variance of processing hardware present on the device.

If you were to flash a US bootloader on your phone you'll be a sad panda.
The newer ROMS are requiring an updated bootloader to work properly. The newest Canadian bootloader MF1 still won't work for most of these ROMS so don't update it that far.
I don't know what else to suggest.
There are 2 main reasons for status 7 (3 if you're on a Canadian carrier which you are)
@KorGuy123
Nice job on the explanations. Many Users (none of which are obviously in this section of course ) would see that he was running a version of Task's ROM from December and jumped all over him. Keep up the good work.
OP ~ KorGuy123's last post points out to what a Status 7 recovery error is. Most of the times Status 7's are mainly due to Recovery issues. Bootloader issues will usually throw a [getprop ro.bootloader] error instead of a Status 7 just for future reference.

[Q] Issue flashing from 4.2.2 to 4.3

Hello All,
I have been using Illusion 4.2.2 and want to go to 4.3.
I have been facing the following issues -
1) After upgrading to the latest cwm (6.0.3.8), I tried flashing PA 4.3. With a clean wipe and format system, it gave me a status 7 error (installation aborted).
One of XDA members redirected me to this - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2321310. I followed this and following is the screenshot of what I have after upgrading the bootloader : (Below jpg which says "Just after upgrading bootloader)
2) I could now flash the rom but when I rebooted after flashing , I don't have root access and neither do I see any att network / data . Following are the screenshots -
(Just after flashing 4.3 Page 1/2 and No root access after flashing 4.3).

I eliminated that possibility because the same thing happened with two different roms (PA 4.3 and Illusion 4.3). I am on ATT and this phone is a ATT phone , and I am flashing all roms within this thread

I know with illusion you have to ::Settings -> Developer options -> Root access to apps and/or adb. to get root access. Where are you getting basebands from? The latest is I747UCDMG2 but I747UCDLK3 should work too. Get them from HERE

Baseband is Here. I would suggest MG2 baseband as it is more compatible with 4.3 than older than LK3. Get it from the link i just gave you and follow instructions on the page. Only use odin for reverting back to STOCK.

Huh thats weird. The only thing i can think of is something is wrong with the rom or you are flashing a non d2att rom.

I suspected that but since a lot of people are already using that rom and I made sure I am downloading d2att , those things are eliminated.
I am thinking the 4.3 flashing erased my previous efs folder and that is why it cannot find my imei number anymore - resulting in no network.

Anyways, I flashed stock through odin and looks like I have my network back.

try updating roms from ics up to 4.3and update modem and bootloader.

[Q] Now stuck PLS HELP

This is my very first post i have found many solution on this forum which helped me & my friends But need help with this 1
Ok here goes my Story
I have recently brought s3(used) it was on 4.3 & rooted with philz touch 6 didn't check the firmware details etc
As i was playing with philz touch 6 & did something which i remember was to clean rom or some thing now the phone boots & shows Samsung Galaxy SIII & stops there
I think its on I747UCUEMJ2 Modified ROM » Root, KNOX Disabled, SE-Linux Disabled not sure
Is there a way to get it back ..?
If you are able to access download mode, you could easily flash a custom ROM.
S i can access download mode
Can i go back to stock or only custom firmware from now on..?

If I were you, I would go to a custom firmware. That is if you have a custom recovery like ClockWorkmod or TWRP. But you can flash stock, at least to my understanding. But I'd look into that.
(Your bootloader will need to be unlocked too)
I am on Clockworkmod v6.0.3.1 the thing is i don't want a custom firmware 2 many problems
I would like to load stock buy have read most of them get their phones bricked

If you were on the 4.3 official stock ROM that was pushed out, you have a possibility of bricking your device downgrading to lets say the 4.1.2 stock ROM.
A custom ROM isn't bad though. If you do like Touchwiz based ROMs you may be able to find one in the development section.

What information are you wanting to backup?
You'll have to find your ROM of choice. If you want a reliable ROM then I'd recommend something that is stable, which should always be said in the thread,

Contacts could be backed up if you sync with your gmail account. SMS can be done by an application on the market. Notes that are synced on Evernote or Keep should just be there.

hi from what im understanding ur wanting to root it and install custom firmware
here is a video i used from rootjunky to root my tablet with twrp

hope it helped
@first there is no cm for this tab. All custom roms based on stock rom or 4.2.2 port from sm-t110
There is no need to unlock bootloader like HTC. No seperate flash of Boot.img...
Install cwm or twrp recovery with Odin. Check threads for Odin install instructions. Its easy going

Install cwm or twrp recovery with Odin. Check threads for Odin install instructions. Its easy going
Cwm:

Twrp:

If you only want to root flashable ZIP for root is attached in recovery threads.
If you want to try custom roms check index thread for sm-t210 Roms.

Thanks, i found out how it works. Real easy.
Only problem i have now is that ALL the ROMs seem to be alot of crap.
Not working, resolution problems or FCs. And yes i use the T210 versions and no other.
Also recoverys are baaad. Lol now i know why i will never get a Samsung ... crap casing, crap software.

Try looking at the specs of each ROM and compare it with yours. I am currently running S.E.A.L ROM
with the Black hawk kernel I am finding it faster than the Stock ROM and also way less bloatware.
Try this or the RocketTab Rom and Blackhawk. These tend to work the best for most SM-T210 and R.
