[Q] Defy+ acting strange after flashing with defy bl7 root - Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Dear all,
today I finally found time to flash my Defy+ with using this Thread. This was my first flashing, but I done all the reading and I think it went as it should.
Now my Defy is acting strange:
Now I have poor signal
Now I often lose signal in areas where it was very strong before (at home)
In calls incoming voice is breaking, thus they hear me clearly
Although I wiped data and cache when Defy+ booted for the first time I got my old wall paper back and some Icons were in the same place as before flashing.
Thanks in advance and please help, if you know what went wrong.

Did you try switching baseband? If not, try it.

No I haven't. Should I use this one?

Hi there, in the mean time I've installed and Baseband Switcher v4.1. I have selected EMEA/Central Europe Hong Kong, Taiwan, Arabia, France, Nordic 3.5.x United Kingdom 4.5.1-85.
I assume this should be OK for me as I come from Slovenia.

If that baseband works fine without problems, nothing more to be done.

[Q] Help - can't get service using Brazilian SBF

Hi Everyone,
I recently flashed the Brazilian MS2 SBF (was using Australian Vodafone ROM) in an attempt to get 3G working here in Canada (Rogers; 850/1900).
When I flashed the Brazilian SBF, I was able to get a connection very briefly before getting an error that my SIM is not authorized for this network.
Does the Brazilian ROM institute some sort of SIM-lock? If so, has anyone got around it? I haven't had any problems with UK, Australia or original Chinese ROM (phone eBay'd from HK)
Is it confirmed that the MS2 can in fact properly baseband switch from 900/2100 to 850/1900?
Thank you for your time and help!

u should find ur answer here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=940828&highlight=brazilian+sbf
I had a look at that thread earlier.. but no avail. Actually it turns out they released several Milestone 2s, and not all of them are tri-band 3G. Some are dual - this is the risk of getting these phones early off of eBay. Mine is 900/2100 3G - I need 850/1900 3G. Stuck with ****ty EDGE until either 1) I move to a new country 2) my phone carrier changes infrastructure - both not happening soon.
Thanks

[Q] U8180 Rom for New Zealand?

Okay, so I bought the Huawei X1 phone, which is a great little phone.
But, it wasn't long before I started to tinker with it, and in the process I lost the stock Telecom rom and ended up having to flash with an Aussie version.
The problem I'm having though, is that nearly all roms I've found so far will not register properly on the network, and as far as I found out, it's because these all came from 900mhz providers and not the 850mhz like XT.
So heres what I would like somone to do f they are keen enough...
Use SuperOneClick to root their phone.
Install RootToolBox.
Flash with recovery-RA-u8160-v2.3 (you may need a file manager like ES file manager)
Power off then on holding both power button and volume up until recovery menu comes up.
Perform a nand backup of boot, system, and data and then...
Please please please upload the files somewhere for me!
Thanks.
Or if anyone has the U8180 Telecom New Zealand rom, can you please upload?
I've tried getting it from wiki.modaco.com Huawei_Firmware_U8180
But none of the links work, or I can't figure out how to get them working.
You've got the wrong forum mate...This forum section is for U8800 - X5 and what you've got is Huawei Ideos X1 - U8180.
Yeah I know, but for some reason I can't find the right forum?
Able to point me in right direction?
You owe me a beer for this
http://androidz.jimdo.com/roms-x1-u8180/roms-u8180-x1-gaga/#.Tlrayl34K08
Not really mate, those roms are the reason my phone is now stuck on the 900mhz version baseband and not the 850mhz version like I need for telecom.
I'm desperate for the NZ telecom version!
Ups, sorry mate, wasn't aware that NZ is 850mhz.
Can you not change the baseband in *#*#4636#*#* menu?

You are confused, the baseband has nothing to do with the 3G frequency, you cannot change a frequency because it is in the hardware not software.
My question is: did it worked before the update? (im assuming that you are talking about 3G frequency bands)
Sent from my U8800Pro using XDA App
Oh I guess I am confused?
Yes it did work before the update.
And no I don't see an option to change anything in the menu.
How would I go about repairing this?
Maybe contact Huawei NZ? via http://huaweimobile.co.nz
I tried that yesterday.
Got some angry little asian man who wanted to know how I flashed the phone and was no help at all
Noticed before that the phone model isn't actually U8180, but rather U8180-7...
I'm guessing there may be a hardware change for NZ?
Can anybody point me to more info on basebands and whatnot?
I don't really understand it all, I was under the impression that baseband=operating frequencies?
Why don't you take it back to Telecom shop and see if they can flash it back? I doubt you'll have much luck on this forum as it's for a totally different phone that runs on only 2D and Vodafone in NZ
you'd be fine if the Huawei links weren't broken, all the links I've tried for multiple models are broken. Keep an eye on them they might come right soon.
Flashed it with U8150 firmware for a laugh, going back to shop today :S
hey there -
I've got the U8180-7 NZ Telecom version if you want - uploading it now to mediafire and will post it in a bit.
Will you return the favor ? I need to purchase a couple of these phones in NZ and have them shipped out to me. But haven't found a way to do that yet.. nobody seems to want to ship overseas or even have DHL pick on my expense from their shop..
rgds,
pirh
Update: seems I can't yet post outside links.. PM me for the link
Hey Luke, check out geekzone:

They have been working on CM7 for the telecom x1 so maybe their port will work

Motorola xoom Mz 601

Hi i've installed Build H.6.1-38-1 for Retail Europe to my motorola 2 days ago, everything seems to be okey, i got few updates, now i'm running HONEYCOMB 3.2 , But PROBLEM IS MY MTOROROLA SHOWS NOW internal MEMORY CAPACITY ONLY 4.11 GB??? instead of about 28 gb, does anyone know.. WHY????
Someone more knowledgeable will come along I am sure - but I 'think' some models had a different arrangement for the flash drives, so flashing these roms makes your Xoom THINK it has less memory than it really does I believe.

Can someone give me a pointer to what i need to do ? I have experience with android and roms but never messed around with an S5.

he told me it was fully unlocked, but how do i know for sure ?
ok it appears that i get signal bars but it tells me i cant register on the network, this seems to be a common problem judging from all the vids on yt or google results, but so far none of the solutions presented worked for me ( i still havent flashed anything)
Edit: ok ive flashed 2 roms through odim and problem still persists, help ? the odin files reflash the modem right ?
Edit2: flashed the latest modem file (same problem)
Edit3 : Flashed cm13 problem still persists im beginning to think the imei might be blocked here in portugal, anyone knows of a way to check if it is ?
