Help Change Between Basebands

[rendeiro2005]

If you have any different baseband please share...thks

Since so much people had some difficulties with search button or how to change between basebands to switch to/from, here you can find all info to do so.

All Roms/Mods may work with different baseband versions so, the first thing you need to avoid enter in constant bootloops after install a new Rom/Mod, is check witch version you have on or phone.

To do that go to
Settings > About Phone > Baseband Version

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

If u install new rom via xRecovery and got no signal no radio no wifi then just relax remove sd card from mobile then go for factory reset in setings and erase every thing now rebot and wohoo here we go

I just updated my baseband to 2.0.52 and now the screen will not shut off by itself. I have to manually shut it off. Anyone have any ideas?

Word of advice, backup! I'm aware this is to change an existing baseband but I attempted to downgrade using a different method and it didn't work. Said unknown baseband and nothing worked obviously. After using this method without a baseband, had a intermittent bootloop and the entire phone was reset as if you reinstalled the OS. Even if you do this correctly with an existing baseband, back it up! It only takes a few minutes...

you shouldnt be changing basebands unless needed for roms and you should always know what you are doing but if you flash the wrong baseband all you do is flash the one you need and your phone will be fine.
its actually very easy to do.

oh and a backup wont affect your baseband, only the rom is backed up.
