Hi all,
I did something stupid. The CM12 build wasn't working for me and I foolishly tried to overwrite the firmware of my L70 MS323 with the firmware from an L70 D320N - specifically the modem firmware (not /system).
What I need is for someone running the stock LG ROM (but rooted!) to get a copy of:
/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/modem
I need you to log in over a root adb shell (or through a Terminal Emulator on the phone) and do this:
dd if=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/modem of=/storage/sdcard0/firmware.img
This should save a copy of /dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/modem to the external sd card as a binary file. It should be 64MB. Please upload it somewhere and link me... You might even be able to just copy the device file itself with root explorer and rename it to firmware.img -- doesn't matter.
This is binary data that doesn't seem to be part of the /system you flash, it persists on a separate piece of flash memory that you usually don't touch. This is why I can't get it back - I've been having issues trying to reflash the LG stock rom with LG FlashTool - I don't think I'll be able to do it (which is why I posted).
Currently with the incorrect [modem] firmware I cannot make use of wifi, bluetooth, or the 3g modem in the phone to make calls
While the phone isn't "bricked" it is a rather lackluster experience...
PS: It might be a good idea to start a thread where all the /dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/modem copies can be collected. In case someone silly like me comes along sometime later
