[Radio.img]NEW! Baseband VS740MVC.5210.1015

Status
Not open for further replies.
FYI, feeling brave and daring, I decided to flash the previous Radio image (VZB) back on my phone. The Baseband version reported afterward still says VS740Mv7.5210.1013, and I don't think it's ever said anything but that as far as I can recall.

I was wondering... if I actually cared about this, would it update anything if I:

1. Flashed everything back to stock and allowed all the updates including this one to install, then
2. Flashed custom recovery again
3. Flashed Raptor again.
 
I reverted back to stock and received the updates successfully. When I re-rooted and flashed Velocity .3 again, my baseband version went back to VS740MVB.5210.1015 although my SW is still showing ZVC. The information isn't always displayed correctly as other members have stated.

Bottom line? You won't know if it failed or was a success unless you remember what the update said when you flashed it.

If the market isn't working then you didn't do something right. Did you clear cache and dalvik cache?

It said something like: Writing Radio.img just before it rebooted.
Only on the second reboot did the blue light flash though.

About phone>baseband will not reflect changes! If led flashes blue it worked. If recovery says to reboot to complete. It flashed ok. If you didnt clear caches the market will not work. The led will not always flash

I suppose it worked then. I was cautious because this didn't work quite like the other times I've flashed the baseband.
Usually I would press reboot and it would stay at the verizon logo with the blue light flashing for about 10-30 seconds, and would proceed to boot. This just seemed to be abnormal so I assumed something was wrong.
^ Is what I just described what should have happened?
 
Alright - my curiosity got the better of me so I decided to go back to stock to get all the updates. I went all the way back to 6, restored the stock recovery and was able to install all of the updates including the current one. I verified that both my baseband and my software version confirmed that ZVC was installed properly.

However, upon reinstalling Raptor, the baseband version went back to VS740MV7.5210.1013 and the SW version stayed at VS740ZVC. I have to question whether the Baseband change really sticks and the info is just reported wrong, or if it is getting reverted. Not sure how you could prove it one way or the other. Oh well, it was a fun project to do in the watches of the night.
 
Hmm ill open raptor up and check. it may be included in raptor? because V6 is VS740MV5.5010.1012 and i cant remember what v8 is but vb is vs740mvb.5210.1015
 
Awww come on guys. Im not exactly trying to be the Internet police here but lets play Nice.

Sometimes people can miss things. Sometimes these concepts can be hard for people to understand.

I know for sure I have been "That guy" from time to time. Sometimes you gotta read re read then ask a boat load of stupid questions that make it look like you dont know how to read. But its a process
Not everyone gets these things as fast as others. Lets just be patient with one another and really try to be positive with one another.

I love this community I hope I have given back to it at least some. I know that I do try at least. Theres just no need to tear down its not productive for anyone.

I am not trying to start a war with anyone but I just see some very negative post here.

Nice!! ROFL

Alright but more on topic.
Seeing as I went back to stock and took the update it at that time had a baseband of MVC what ever. Now I flashed my Nandroid back afterwards and the SW stayed at ZVC but the Baseband went back to MVB what ever.

Its my understanding that I should NOT run the zip because I already have the updated Radio despite what it says on the Baseband.

Is this correct?

Yes, it's a reporting error, don't flash it again. Doing so can/will brick your phone.

SWC2001, are you okay buddy? Do you need to talk to someone?

My wife would say "NO hes not okay!!"

and yes but I dont have enough money to talk to the professional help anymore... I think they gave up on me anyway. I could take up a collection though..... Anyone wanna Donate to my mental health. LOL

If I didnt act weird youd think I was sick or somthing.
 
I see no difference one way or another. Of course, it's hard to tell because one can't even truly determine the actual version of the baseband when you change ROMs.
 
hmmm...I cleared my cache and dalvik cache before AND after flashing this and my market stopped working. Couldn't figure it out. Finally last night before going to bed, I cleared my cache and dalvik cache again and it works perfectly. :]

Yes...in Anderson, South Carolina to be specific (filmed in Walterboro). :] And it takes place in the late 50s/early 60s -ish. It's based off of a true story.

Edit: hooray! Post number 5! :D (Note: 101 = 5 in binary)
