DANTEROM: no service, wrong time

[mlk43611]

Hello,

Just installed Danterom4, like 10 minutes ago, and am having a couple of problems:

1. The phone can't find service. This hadn't been an issue before on stock ROM.
2. Wrong time on clock. Ditto.

Suggestions?

I have an LG Optimus S, android 2.3.3, baseband MVJ, SW version (?) ZVJ.

Thanks.

What were you running before and how what steps did you take to update to Dante? Sounds like a baseband mismatch to me

Before, I was running rooted 2.2. ZVD and stock rom. To achieve ZVJ root, I followed these directions: http://forums.androidcentral.com/lg...ls670zvd-zvh-100-automated-zvj-automated.html. I did all the wipes, etc. I did have service and correct time after rooting ZVJ.

Then I applied these directions, including nandoid back-up and debug-formatall: http://forums.androidcentral.com/lg...vj-2-3-3-danterom-v4-update-10-14-2012-a.html.

Thx.

Okay, then do me a favor. Nand back to stock zvj and verify you have service (create another nand first so you can go back. If so, I am going to assume it was a bad flash or corrupted download. If you have service on stock, let me know.

Edit: Also, did you use the method above or . . http://forums.androidcentral.com/lg...9-how-automated-rooting-ls670zvd-zvh-zvj.html This is what you what you wanted. The one ou listed is NOT meant to upgrade to zvj

 

[mlk43611]

Oops, yes, I used the thread YOU presented, and going back to stock zvj, I DON'T have service or correct time. (sorry for the incorrect info, previously)

I hate to say it, I don't know. I would try reverting again to zvd, and trying again. I think you are still on zvd baseband. You likely missed a step. Follow the guide very carefully.

Edit: for fun try this. http://forums.androidcentral.com/showpost.php?p=2017421

You want the ZVJ to zvd patch. Flash from xionia.

Thanks, I will give the patch a try tomorrow.

I did have some problems going from rooted ZVD to ZVJ; phone refused to boot back into recovery -- many times. I'd fuss and ditz around, and before long I ended up w/several update.zip files on my pc. I'm wondering now if maybe I had the wrong update file on the sd card? And, if so, if there would be any benefit of placing a ZVJ update file. Frankly, I don't even know where the ZVJ file would have come from, anyway, during the process.

You downloaded it as part of the root tool. If you decide to start from scratch, begin with redownloading everything. Just know if that patch works, that means you still have the zvd baseband and will have to apply the patch on every new ROM made for the zvj baseband.

Thanks for that add'l info. I'll try the patch first, but just might start completely over, anyway. It's not that I'm going to be installing the latest ROMs -- I just really want to get rid of bloatware and see what custom ROMs are all about. And . . . this has become a challenge that I'd like to work through.

 

[mlk43611]

The patch worked, suggesting you were right about the mismatched basebands. However, I did start the whole process over, w/new downloads, etc, and while I succeeded in getting to a rooted ZVD (confirmed), I never could get rooted ZVJ. On the ZVJ Root/Recovery screen, #B Reboot into Recovery, I always ended up in android. Over and over. So I guess it'll either be a patch to use DanteRom or a ZVD custom rom. Thx for your help.

No problem! Glad you got it figured out.
