Question about baseband. - XPERIA X8 General

Changing my baseband can give me signal trouble in certain zones of my city?
I've been having this kind of troubles and its like i can't call or i can't use internet.
In order to upgrade to 2.2 i had to change my baseband from 06 to 015, but the troubles didn't come right away. I've been having this issues for a couple of days, and when they begun, i got this weird message about "SIM network unlock pin".
plz help 8(

i believe you get sim network unlock pin when you put a sim card form another network in to a network locked phone, i would try a repair from SE's pc companion
http://www.sonyericsson.com/cws/sup...ed/pccompanion/1.689743/xperiax10?cc=gb&lc=en
that's the link if you don't have it already.
if that doesn't work you could try another sim card or take it back to the shop were you got it from.

Thats the weird part because i never changed my own sim card.
Try to repair what using pc companion?

You changed baseband via flashtool, didn't you? Well, basebands are compilation and version dependant. This means that you need to flash baseband that is compatible with your ROM version (in case of 015 it should probably be at least 2.1.1.A.0.6) and with your device, namely E15a or E15i.

I flashed the rom too.
The problem is that i don't really understand what baseband is. So i'm asking if flashing baseband (paired with the correct rom version) can give me network problems.

Baseband is the subsystem of the phone that controls radio communications.
Network problems you have if only you have flashed E15i's baseband version on an E15a (or the opposite). Correct me if I'm wrong..

I think it's the same.

Thanks. I solved the problem.
I flashed and e15i firmware, so i was having trouble with zones using the 2100 band that is not used in the e15i.
To fix it, i used the customization number method that is posted here using this sony number 1243-9502.
Thanks for your help.

[Q] Baseband versions ?

Greetz all,
I've noticed there're different baseband versions, so far I've seen only two versions :
1.ending with 06
2.ending with 15
I haven't seen any reports of problems with particular version, on my device I have the v1, and it seems to work for all the roms.
If someone has info about this subj. please post in comments.
Also, if your baseband is neither 1 or 2 listed, please post complete baseband version and list of updates done to the phone.
I am not sure if this is the cause, but I still have a problem with voice quality over Bluetooth connection in a car.
The device in question is Becker Cascade Pro.
The sound is "bubbly" and very distorted, hardly usable.
I had this same problem with HTC Hero firmware 1.5, and it disappeared after upgrading to 2.1-r1, but in X8 the problem remains even on Gingerbread and any other roms.
Anybody has a similar problem?
Solutions ?
I think everyone's baseband begins with: "M76XX-TSNCJOLYM-53404xyz" <- yes, XX exactly, they don't represent something else, and last xyz are three numbers...
I have 015.
Updates: first flashed 1.6 FW when updating to 2.1 via deleting /system method.
Later, flashed 2.1 via FlashTool.
Then again some 1.6 and again 2.1, then updated via SEUS to latest 2.1.1.A.0.6
I think baseband is in amss files, because I've read somewhere that unlock solution could be patching amss - and simlock should be related to radio, right?

Why? Right now I've checked, every baseband version DO begin as I said, and it's in related to AMSS, AMSS_FS, FOTA0, FOTA1 and KERNEL files.
And I'm uploading them for download, check in baseband collection thread

If it's under warranty, give it back. If not, try root and flash another rom.
I guess its a hardware problem
but still, try installing a different Rom

I think I have this problem too after I tried (unsuccessfully) to root my phone. Now I can only get some networks (Tmobile & Orange) but not my network (Talkmobile, which piggybacks Vodafone). I've been googling around about this for a while and I think it may be that I need to cahange my baseband. Current ver is EPU93_U_00.60.03. But I don't know how to do this. Any help to a noobe would be much appreciated...

You could try with Baseband Switcher 4, and select your baseband...Then you have to set the APN.

[Q] No Cellluar network

Okay, so hear me out guys. I have a I9505 (duh) running the foxhoundrom, but when I tried to update from 2.0 - 3.0 I got a bootloop, but the problem is. When I got out of the bootloop, I didn't have any mobile connections.. (screenshot one) Me being such a dork as I am, thought I could fix it on my own, in the settings for changing Network Operators. It takes ages to load them upm and if I connect to one of them, I get and can use the connectivity for a while. Until I lock my phone and unlock it again actually. I heard something about IMEI? No idea what that is, but my IMEI code found via *#06#
But I have a original sim card, it's right and stuff, I have no idea what happend...
I really need help fixing this..

Firstly, Remove your IMEI number from your post. It's confidential information and someone can use it illegally if they wanted to.
Secondly, To fix your issue of connection the new 4.3 based ROMs need the new MJ5 Modem to work properly.
Flash the MJ5 modem and your problems will be gone
