[RADIO] Change baseband for LG L7

mixednuts · Mar 19, 2014

I recently went from stock ICS to stock JB (open Argentina v20a). Do you think flashing one of the v20a basebands will get rid of the network lock that I experience with some SIM cards?

My current baseband version, running the v20a firmware, is MSM7227A-1-AA.

No, it doesn't.
Search the net how to carrier unlock.

Thank you for responding.

This is a little off topic - I know what the end result is in network unlocking a phone, but what does it technically do? From what I have read it's firmware related. I'm in Canada, so, I just don't understand why the open Argentina firmware would work with one Canadian network provider and not another.

Very confused.

Afaik, it's about network frequencies used from different countries. I'm not really sure but that's what I understand.
Network/carrier lock is different.
That is why, some firmware's can be used on other countries coz they had the same frequencies.

OK, last off topic, sorry.

I believe that I already know the answer to this - custom ROMs, such as CM, will have no network / SIM locks, correct? The only reason for flashing other basebands is if users are having trouble with the the radios of custom ROMs in their region / country, correct?

Like I've said from my previous post, SIM/network lock is nothing to do with Rom. Afaik, if I'm not mistaken, is stored in a different partition and no matter what Rom you're using it will not unlock SIM. But all custom Rom is rooted, if that's what you mean.
On the second question, your correct.

I did read this as well... that's why once unlocked it's always unlocked, so that partition is never wiped. Now I know... not confused on the matter anymore.

Thanks, again.

I've flashed v20f from spain on CM11 and twrp 2.7 (p705) and still says v20a on about settings. What's wrong?

So for changing the baseband I need to go back to stock, flash and return to CM? There is no way of changing the baseband without returning to stock?

When I'm on silent or vibration mod, there is still notifications sound. How can I fix this?

No you don't have to go back to stock, i only said that baseband is correct, and in cyanogenmod rom and other custom roms may adversely display, , etc :good:
