Missy:
- there is NO mik baseband. There are LG v10 and v20 basebands.
- The only thing from mik related to baseband are patched ril libs for CM7 that tried to make the new baseband working on CM7 and failed, since it cannot read the operator information from SIM card. Therefore, no APNs and no 2G/3G.
- There is an extensive howto I have written with instructions. I have also explained in detail which baseband is for which ROM.
Read the darned howto and stop asking the same thing over and over again. If you do not understand, stay with stock ROM.

Which version of Android did u have on your phone before you rooted and flashed a new ROM? Which ROM did u flash?
If u had Froyo (2.2.*) and now u flashed a Gingerbread based ROM (2.3.3), you have a baseband problem (The baseband is the subsystem of the phone that controls radio communications: GSM and data connection...). Froyo uses a different baseband (old) than Gingerbread (new baseband).
Solution: change the baseband according to your newly flashed ROM.
How to upgrade/downgrade baseband for noobs
Flashing baseband (radio) via LGMDP.exe
If u have a Froyo based ROM or any ROM that needs the old baseband (Mik_os's CM7 port...), you need P500-v10E-baseband.7z
For Gingerbread based ROMs u need P500-v20G-baseband.7z
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
EDIT:
Since u came from Gingerbread u have the new baseband. Since #forever is based on CM7, it uses the old baseband... U need to downgrade to P500-v10E-baseband.
Has I said I am a rookie but what I did was:
Installed original 2.3.3
- Rooted

Dude, you had 2.3.3 first. It uses new baseband.
Void forever is based on CM7, which supports only old baseband.
You can do any one of the following things:
1. Flash 2.2 official ROM through KDZ. So you'll get old baseband again and you can install void forever. Go here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1060121
2. Mik has a fix for the new baseband. It will provide GSM support, but internet data will not work. Wifi will work, GPRS/3G will not. Go here and flash the file through recovery: http://www.multiupload.com/R9CEDO2HS9
3. You can revert to the old baseband. Follow this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1149530 and you can find the old and new basebands here: http://lg-p500.zrusit.eu/index.php?dir=baseband/
Follow the steps in the given threads and you should be fine.

I'm running Mik's stable at the moment and I'd say it meets 95% of my needs. Great ROM.
also dont forget to look into the available kernels, they are preety much what makes your system what it is concerning its speed, graphics, battery life
the current mik_os and void both have outdated versions of the franco.kernel, and a much more recent version is available, as well as a modified version by fserve.

I have flashed the new kernel, thanks.
Honestly I am very thankful for you guys being so nice. Sometimes I see in the forum some really hard messaging towards the new guys and I think we all want to learn right?
So my biggest problem with the phone I love P500 was that it was a bit laggy and although I moved apps as much as I could to the sd I was running out of space in my rom.
Now the system is a lot faster and although (because I am a noob) I lost some of my stuff I am glad because the phone is working so much better.
Actually I have another question: I bought Titanium backup because it seemed really worth it (it is the only paid app I have) but when I look at all the possible apps to backup there seem to be a lot missing (all the ones in the sd card).
Does anyone now how I can fix it?

Questions like: what kernel, what baseband, got drunk and bricked my phone.... HERE
OK, first q: can someone post Neocore results on F1 and 06.12 franco`s kernel?
Baseband question: i'm on the new baseband (was on stock 2.3, then flashed to openoptimus). I really like the look of some of these .32 kernels and roms but everything says its for old baseband.
Can i go back to the old baseband? Is there a thread somewhere? Is it safe? From my own investigation, it looks to me like I don't go back to the old baseband, but rather flash some patch to make the roms work anyway. Sound right?

It won't be OK. If your phone uses the "new" baseband, ROMs made for the "old" baseband will work on your phone (as in flashing will be successful, the phone boots etc.) and everything works except for the most important thing in a phone: the GSM/UMTS module. Which means you won't be able to connect to your mobile network and won't be able to make and receive calls. Bummer. Now, there's a patch that solves this BUT something will still be missing: mobile data. You will be able to make and receive phone calls, but you won't be able to connect to the internet using the mobile data connection (only WiFi).
So, if you want to use a ROM that clearly states it's made for the old baseband, old baseband is what you must have on your phone in order for both calls and internet to work. How to tell which baseband do you have right now it's a different discussion and we'll get there if necessary. I just detailed vlt86's answer for you to understand.
EDIT: I see you already know what baseband you have - the new one. Follow voyager20021's link in order to find out how to return to the old one.

At first, I used 2.3 honey comp ROM for my vibrant. I had an option that use HSDA/3g only, then the icon never turned to E, only 3g and H appears.
A few days ago, I updated my vibrant to 4.0.3, I couldn't find the previous option any where, and the icon keep changing between E/3g/H.
In addition, when i use rom 2.3 and turn on Mobile Ap: It worked great like a charm.
When I changed to 4.0.3, the speed of mobile AP is really slow and not stable.
Any helps are appriciated.

Seems to me that when you switched the roms the modems changed ( as usually happens). Did you notice what is your new modem under baseband. If you remember the baseband version which you used on your 2.3 honey, you could flash it here and it might solve your data problem.
usually different modems have different sensitivity to the different signal strengths. in case of a weaker signal strength a particular modem might switch from 3g whereas a different modem might stick to 3g at a lower signal strength too.

I have not tried that. In the link below you will find the modems which are ics compatible.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1158783&highlight=bootloaders
All you have to do is download your choice of modem ( depending on your location) and put it on your SD card. For convenience sake put it in the phone sd card directly and not in any folder. then
1) reboot into recovery
2) select install zip from sdcard/ internal sdcard
3) choose zip file of the modem
4) yes
let it do its thing. Then reboot and check in the settings under baseband.
PS: since the rom that you are using now does not give you the option to select 3g only, even the new modem will switch to E in areas of very weak 3g reception. Just FYI.

what im looking for is the option "Network Preference" on 2.2 and 2.3, on any ICS Rom, it disappears then. I downloaded an app from market called 3g only but it is not strong enough, the gsm still change to E icon.
Anymore way to get WCDMA only?

I just dont like to use MIUI 4. I flashed it for 30 mins and then kicked it out of my phone. Cyanogenmod 7 brings me a smoother UI and long battery life.
Just wait a few week for the ICS Rom bugs fixed and then i'll try. I'd love to use ICS, it has such an really amazing UI.

One more suggestion.
If you install Doc's Master ICS v5, in that there is an inbuilt app called as galaxy S settings in the app drawer, wherein under radio you can select HSPDA only (3g only). Although I am not quite sure if it works because i don't have 3G on my plan. However the ICS rom works great otherwise and probably might solve your AP issue too. (Fingers crossed)
Great Tip
Thanks a lot, i was going mad with the phone keep going back to 2g.
Apparently, someone had an app to do the switching, but I couldn't download it because the attachment is gone or something.

Hi there
I think the reason why I do not see a network or SIM card is because the baseband is empty as well as the IMEI.
I installed ICS Dynamite 4.0 and I assume that maybe the missing baseband is the reason.
I am Germany right now, does it matter what baseband I am going to use?
Interestingly when I flash back a working Cyanogen 7 rom a baseband is back.
Any tips?

Are you on the old baseband?
Sent from my LG-P500 using xda premium
being in germany or any other part of the world really shouldnt matter about baseband....v10 is old baseband, if you rooted a stock phone, than yes your on old baseband or so I was when I first got this phone....In order to get v20, you need to use LGDMP v1.5, search for Doktonor's thread on flashing with LGDMP....it's not that hard really, and applies to any v20 series (a,b,c,etc)...all you do is extract the 7z file format, open LGDMP, you'll have 4 files total in this extracted folder.....I cant remember to the T on the whole process but the thread by doktonor is with pictures and well be able to help you out....if your having a problem with mobile data and dont want to risk switching basebands, than look out for aspee's baseband fix or a funny sim fix....it's best to go ahead and flash new baseband, it's easy though....as far as your phone not showing IMEI, that's common on some CM7 based roms, even neko95's Moto Razr-UI v7 rom shows no baseband on my phone, not exactly sure why it does that but I am on new baseband (obviously, since mobile data works)
