Guest heavyhms Posted April 13, 2011 Report Posted April 13, 2011 Ok, without knowledge of what was changed I have flashed (Backup with CWM, flash, wipe cache and dalvik, Restore with CWM) successfully. Looking forward. Smartflash drivers are the same needed for install Clockwork and to root the device or are different set of drivers?
Guest aMpeX Posted April 13, 2011 Report Posted April 13, 2011 Nandroid Backup => Flash baseband => Restore Nandroid Backup works good so far on Stock V10b GPS got better i believe came from 20110218
Guest withoutwings Posted April 13, 2011 Report Posted April 13, 2011 Smartflash drivers are the same needed for install Clockwork and to root the device or are different set of drivers? The very same.
Guest Paul Posted April 13, 2011 Report Posted April 13, 2011 It should be noted that the new baseband is also accompanied by a new RIL in the updated ROM (which is in MCR Fr12 also). P
Guest aMpeX Posted April 13, 2011 Report Posted April 13, 2011 So this is not applied when flashing the baseband with the Smartflash method? Any way to only flash that RIL? I don't want to go full custom yet. Cheers aMpeX
Guest alvari Posted April 13, 2011 Report Posted April 13, 2011 Is there a way for flashing the baseband from linux?
Guest wapz Posted April 13, 2011 Report Posted April 13, 2011 Nandroid Backup => Flash baseband => Restore Nandroid Backup works good so far on Stock V10b GPS got better i believe came from 20110218 When you activate gps while moving, does it still seems to take a while even after locking to sattelites to show an accurate speed?
Guest aMpeX Posted April 13, 2011 Report Posted April 13, 2011 When you activate gps while moving, does it still seems to take a while even after locking to sattelites to show an accurate speed? Can't answer that, so far I've only been running in circles on my balcony :)
Guest wapz Posted April 13, 2011 Report Posted April 13, 2011 Can't answer that, so far I've only been running in circles on my balcony :) lol - run! run! mine is flashing now.. 78%!
Guest magicmarkus Posted April 13, 2011 Report Posted April 13, 2011 HI, i have an problem. i can't flash with smartflasher. because smartflasher can't connect to rom. I have installed the driver and so. i use windows 7
Guest Batkoto Posted April 14, 2011 Report Posted April 14, 2011 HI, i have an problem. i can't flash with smartflasher. because smartflasher can't connect to rom. I have installed the driver and so. i use windows 7 Won't work properly on Windows 7
Guest poi2005 Posted April 14, 2011 Report Posted April 14, 2011 Won't work properly on Windows 7 Run the program with administrator (Right click -> Run as Administrator). It works for me in my Windows 7 (64bit). Run without administrator will give an error can't copy rom/files (can't remember the exact message)
Guest moonie17 Posted April 14, 2011 Report Posted April 14, 2011 Just flashed.... hope this improves the battery life :) havnt had any problems with signal so far!.... it did a full wipe for me, to get around it though just make a nandroid backup, flash the baseband, then nandroid restore :) works a treat!
Guest len.asdf Posted April 14, 2011 Report Posted April 14, 2011 Hi there! First of all, thanks for this baseband upgrade! However i have a few questions: - The LG Drivers from this post are not the newest, is this version required or does it also works with newer versions? - How long does the first startup take? Mine is currently on 7 minutes already... :) - If you interrupt the first startup, can you brick your phone? If yes, can you restore it? (I have a nandroid backup that works perfectly)\ Thanks in advanced! Len
Guest moonie17 Posted April 14, 2011 Report Posted April 14, 2011 7 minutes? that doesnt sound right :/ but it has just done a wipe so theoretically its a first boot, did you do an nandroid restore after flashing the baseband?
Guest len.asdf Posted April 14, 2011 Report Posted April 14, 2011 7 minutes? that doesnt sound right :/ but it has just done a wipe so theoretically its a first boot, did you do an nandroid restore after flashing the baseband? Well basically i coulnt get to the point to flash my baseband. But it was my mistake (i think). You have to start the smartflash tool, initiate, plug in your phone with volume down, start the smart flash tool again! After 3 tries it worked! Flashing now, can't wait :)

Flashing now, can't wait :) After flashing my baseband the LG logo just keep flashing on my screen... that can't be right :) edit: Pressed power button and volume down and CWM loaded, so i gues it's ok now :) Edited April 14, 2011 by len.asdf
Guest vanahaim Posted April 14, 2011 Report Posted April 14, 2011 Almost whole day without reboots, but now are back.. Too bad the new baseband, it obviously does not solve.
Guest moonie17 Posted April 14, 2011 Report Posted April 14, 2011 Ah i see! i didnt have to start the smart flash tool again? it just filled up when of the COM ports when i plugged the phone in.... but when i changed to the ROM tab i had to reselect the COM port but that was all :)
Guest Higgsy Posted April 14, 2011 Report Posted April 14, 2011 Flashed with no problem and it didn't wipe the internal sd. my process from fr11 Backup internal sd to PC Nandroid via CWM Flash the smartflash package Boot to cwm Restore last nandroid Flash FR12 Reboot
Guest moonie17 Posted April 14, 2011 Report Posted April 14, 2011 Just had my first random reboot, related to the new baseband maybe?
Guest magicmarkus Posted April 14, 2011 Report Posted April 14, 2011 So I tested with the new LGdriver, but smartflash can't find the right com port from LG (windows 7 32bit) I use compatible Mod Windows XP Sp2 and Administration. but don't work for me. What can I do to flash the new Baseband on my P990.

What can I do to flash the new Baseband on my P990. Press f8 on boot disable Driver Signature Check Start smart Flash tool Boot phone without Battery and power vol. down Should work now maybe you have to fill in 0 in #Channels Worked for me!
Guest Mr.HTML Posted April 14, 2011 Report Posted April 14, 2011 (edited) Installed the baseband, it went fine, but getting a boot-loop afterwards. The LG logo shows for 1 sec, and then blinks ... Have tried to do a restore using CWM, not helping. What have i done wrong? EDIT: Shut down the phone. But the battary in, and it works! :) Edited April 14, 2011 by Mr.HTML
