Base Band Patch for Gingerbread roms - XPERIA X10 Android Development

Use it when your baseband is 54+ and want to try out J's cm7 rom or rdannar's GB Miui rom or Arc rom.
Tested working on J016 and J017 and rdannar's GB Miui - for stock kernel only.
Do it at your own risk and it's not supported by J
Patch it with cm7bb54.zip
Restore back the original with cm7bb52.zip (if you decide to change base band)
This patch won't solve any problem that may come with the rom (such as wlod)
Note: This patch won't work on Trip's GB Miui
pls hit Thanks button if it helps you

I want to make sure I got this all correct:
1. If on bb.54+, flash cm7bb54.zip to patch/use cm7
2. If previously flashed to bb.52, flash cm7bb52.zip to go back to bb.54+
Would I have to flash each zip file every time I want to go back and forth between each rom?
Thanks cobrato!

1.correct
2. only if you decide to flash bb52 again(for any reason) and still want to use cm7 flash cm7bb52.zip
no. if you are flashing a new rom which requires bb54 and you are on bb54 then no need to flash this zip.

Can use this patch for bb.55 ?

I finally gave in and left FreeX10 to test out CM7.
It feels pretty stable but there's some issues I sense still need tweaking and I'll post after I'm done here.
QQ; what improvements have you sensed using .54 over .52, both in general and with CM7?

Personally i don't think there are any improvements. But some people just want a higher number. In fact some of the functions in .54 are broken like auto-time settings.

Not correct.....
If you are in north america .49/.52 causes many issues, especially when it comes to dropped calls , failed text messages and slow 3g+ speeds.
On .55 the failed text issue is fixed completely, I get much better call signal and faster 3g+.

Not without the new kernel, the only way it is possible is if the bootloader gets unlocked

Your usb port, or usb cable?
You can't install the kernel needed for GB without flashtool.
So if your usb port is broken, maybe look on ebay for spare parts to fix it.
If your usb cable is broken, buy a new one.
Good luck

sorry but how do i apply this patch? i'm on BB54 with a broken usb connector
i guess this might be (all steps via xrecovery)
1.- install patch
2.- install 2.3.3 rom (any rom available)
3.- install custom kernel (zKernel might be)
is this correct?
thanks in advance

[Q] Steve.Adams baseband update

I have no problem with using the flashtool, downloading the sin file, etc. But the step that says DO NOT let it boot and immediately go into xrecovery is what worries me. I love trying all the new ROMs, but am still always go back to a custom 2.1 because of the cam/videocam, plus no stereo bluetooth dropouts.
My question is, after I do this to update the baseband and flash 2.2 Beta 4 via xrecovery. Can I go back to my old custom 2.1 with older baseband via xrecovery and then switch back and forth via xrecovery afterward? I just don't feel like flashing the entire firmware, rooting, adding JIT v2, then removing all of the SE apps AGAIN for like the 10th time.
u can install any rom on .435 firmware..
u cant install beta 4 on any lower firmware(.24,etc)..
so update to .435 and stay..
happy flashing

Im not entirely sure thats true because it seemed that those with the newer baseband seemed to be having issues with other roms prior to z's beta 4... can someone confirm?
Sent from my X10i using XDA App
its mentioned clearly in z's post about using the latest base band. as for Steve's recommendation of not letting it boot, i guess i must have missed it when i upgraded the base band while on 2.1 customised, but the only worst thing that happened was i didn't got any signal on my phone, everything else worked fine, it didn't mattered coz i was to install free x10 v4. and its a fine job done by z. the ROM is great. add green glow theme on it, and nothing's like it.
about xrecovery backup able to change your base band back with restore, i haven't tried it myself, i guess xrecovery devs will be the best guys to check if you're not sure.

S5830L Noob questions.

Hello, im new here and new at android devices.
I have a S5830L from Personal(ARGENTINA).
The first time i upgraded to 2.3.4 i lost my 3g capabilities. Later, trying others files i finally recover my 3g.
My current setup is: PDA: KP7 PHONE:KP7 CSC:KP7.
Im interested in trying CyanogenAce or CyanogenMod7. I will have the same 4g problems? Its recommended to try the Betas or i must wait to some final version?
Thanks
Lost 3g capabilities LOL? ur kidding me xD, anyway
if you wanna install Cyano Ace Flash to KPB 2.3.3 http://hotfile.com/dl/116307445/a37322f/S5830XXKPB.rar.html
After that install ClockWorkMod which is here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1168417
Copy it to the sd root , reboot phone get into recovery mode by pressing Home + Power Button Update from zip and select Clockworkmod
Download the RC2 Cyano Ace zip and the RC 2.1 update , into the sd card make 2 folder called ¨Update¨ and ¨Cyano¨, copy the RC2 Installer into Cyano, Copy the RC 2.1 update into Update Folder.
After doing that reboot phone again, get into recovery mode the clockworkmod will appear , go to the install from zip menu and select the Cyano Folder and install the rc2, after that is done, select again install from zip and select the rc 2.1 update in the update folder, reboot and happy cyano, u need to wait a little to boot because it takes a lil to boot at first time.
Remember to add your Apn settings to have 3g...
You are right - when I was using russian 2.3.4 there was 3G bug and it doesnt work to...
I am testing CyanoAce for a two days and everything is working normaly for this time... Its good to make bigger sd-ext while preparing sd card and move dalvik cache to it... look at my gallery there are some pics of benchmarks testing cyanoace
And its good to make a battery formating in cwm after instaling this rom... ( perhaps batery must be at 100 % before this! )
Its faster than 2.3.4

Backup your APN before flashing a custom rom when everything's working. Tell me how it goes.

Well, as far as I know (and feel free to correct me if I'm wrong), CyanoAce (I guess you're referring to BehradGH and Grif07's versions) and CyanogenMod7 differ one from another on some parts of the ROM as kernel and such; but they're supposed to be the same if not an exact copy of an original version of CM7. Did that helped you?

Cool man, thanks.
The main issue im having is the battery duration, this will help ?
You and everybody else. That depends on your usage, your 3G network strength signal and your availability to connect to WiFi every time it's possible since WiFi wastes less battery than 3G/2G.
I will try that then. My phone is rooted, this will change anything when flashing to cyanoace?
I wrote it before - do you wipe battery setings in cwm after porting cyanoace rom? Its better to fo it... but battery must be at this moment on 100% level... Than it maebe will keep a longer time using your device...

Hi, I also have the Galaxy ACE S-5830L and want to install CyanogenMod 7.1 2.3.7 RC 2.2; now I understand than I need to flash with KPB firmware, but the 3G network will work good after installing CyanogenMod? if not, can I use the modem from KP7 with CyanogenMod?
I'm from Bolivia, my Carrier is TIGO.
Thanks in advance.
As far as I know, based on my experience, you can flash any ROM you get your sweet hands on, the signal will work, the 3g depends, you can dial *#2263# and select the frequency your carrier uses, but if that doesn't work you must flash (via odin) the unbranded modem for Latinamerica.
Tanks for the answer, I'm starting to download all the stuff needed to flash my phone.

Now with CyanogenMod 7.1 RC2.2 working very well on my Ace, not needed to flash KPB, with my original modem firmware it works with 3G Network.

Hi, welcome to XDA developers!
I'll try and help as much as possible...
Which kernel are you on? Stock or some custom kernel?
Thank you, I use Stock Rom, I thing it's Stock kernel. I tried to test many of the original Rom but the situation has not improved.
Another problem is that after many tests, I found only when using GoogleMaps with 3G, the machine I was reboot, if used with wifi is fine. So is 3G is the problem? but I still surf the Web using 3G normally without any problems. Hope your help!

Hi, it might be baseband problem, maybe baseband .71 isn't for you... Try this:
9Lukas5 said:
- Baseband 2.1.67
- smsBB67 patch
- Kernel upgrade
flashing procedure:
-The baseband and the kernel upgrade must be placed in the firmwares folder from flashtool and the sms patch on to the sdcard.
-After you have flashed the rom and the xrecovery now also flash the sms patch before remove the battery.
-In Flashtool flash first the 2.1.67 Baseband, after flashing finished, remove usb cable and select the kernel upgrade and connect the usb again when flashtool asks.
-After both (bb and kernel upgrade) flashed, you can remove the usb-cable and power on the device with everything working on bb 2.1.67.

[Q] Unlocked bootloader wi-fi error

I'm currently running stock 2.3.3 from SE (through Rogers in Canada) with baseband 2.1.71 (rooted since it was released)
I planned on installing CM7 on my phone so I decided to unlock my bootloader so that it is ready when I eventually do so. I used FlashTool 0.6.7.0 to unlock it and it ran without any problems.
However I'm unable to turn Wi-Fi on. It only says "Error" and I'm not too sure what's wrong. I tried searching for answers but others with same issues were using custom ROMs while I'm still on stock.
Anyone know what I can do to fix this? If you're missing any information to be able to help me, please let me know and I will post them. (I have about a week to fix this as I'll be leaving on vacation and I'll need wifi working)
Thanks!
If you have really opened bootloader, for such device special kernels are necessary (stock or custom). Flash by FlashTool one of such ftf-kernels, then install with utility xRecovery the module wi-fi for this kernel.
The author of each ROM recommends, what kernels to use and gives the link on downloading.
just look for the kernel tht is meant for unlocked bootloader tht should work with stock rom n then flash kernel via flashtool n wifi modules file through xrecovery ur wifi will work
Which kernel u using? U prob need the relevant WiFi modules.

Switching Baseband - The easy way [ Tested on GB ]

Mod plz add this to sticky or link it in sticky
As we know there are two types of baseband's available for our device, old baseband which is used by froyo and some gingerbread rom's and new baseband that is used by gingerbread onwards.
To switch baseband you either need to flash baseband through lgmdp or flash firmware using kdz and both involves a substantial degree of risk of bricking your device.
What I will be telling will not actually change your baseband but will make the ROM compatible with the baseband you are using. So here it is how it goes.
-> If you are having old baseband and want to use new baseband ROM, flash this after flashing ROM
https://www.box.com/shared/jt2m8hl8jd6qul915z4g
-> If you are having new baseband and want to use old baseband ROM, flash this after flashing ROM
https://www.box.com/shared/r5l39a5ocaxr8zq1s46h
Note:- Patch for old baseband was originally made by adfadd and thats where idea came for creating a patch for new baseband. While the patch by adfadd is long lost in pile of threads, this is where this thread will come handy.
Flashing baseband through LGMDP cannot brick your device,only flashing full firmwares via LGMDp or KDZ_FW_UPD can have chance to brick

i looked into the zip file and found that a few lib files are added by flashing the patch. would this affect the performance? my phone works fine in 90% of the time. however, sometimes it is just too laggy to even answer calls. it could become normal after some time, say 30s ro 1min.
i dont have this problem when i was using roms based on the old baseband. so i am wondering what would the patch do to the system.
thanks.
