[Q] Incompatible Handset Message AND UK ICS Download - LG Optimus 2x

Two questions in one thread and the first has been bugging me for sometime and i'm fed up of working around it;
First issue: When i switch on my Optimus 2X P990 i am greeted with the popup message saying 'incompatible handset' with two option of okay or cancel. If i click either of these or leave the message time out, I loose all signal and it will not come back unless i reboot the device. The way i am getting past this is upon the message popping up i press the back capacitive button.
This happens on every rom i have tried (MIUI, CM, Eagles Blood and stock roms)
Does anyone have any idea on how to stop this from happening? I have searched everywhere for answers and the closest i have come across is to update the sim tool set via lg suite. Unfortunately i cannot do this as every version of lg pc suite i have tried does not work properly on windows 7 (no support for 64 bit, WTF!!!). Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Second request: Also does anyone know where i might obtain the latest UK unlocked baseband and stock ICS rom from as i cannot update the device via OTA at all.

Forgot to mention that the message box appears even when a sim card is not present in the device.

<bump>

Odp: [Q] Incompatible Handset Message AND UK ICS Download
look in dev section, there's bunch of stock ad stock - based roms. don't waste someone's time because you are too lazy to search.
problem with pop up is curious. Can you test it on pure cm10 with "factory state" (all things wiped and rim installed)

I'm not looking for just the rom but also advise on which baseband people believe to be the better so don't get on your f***ing high horse!
The issue with the popup message also happens with this rom and literally all i have tried prior and all stock ones i have tried. The closest i have come to seeing a resolve is to update the sim tools but this (as far as i can see from searching as this seems to be quite a small issue in terms of others experiencing it), needs to be done via LG suite which is not possible on my W7 64bit machine (advise i got directly from LG when complaining about it LG suite not installing).

Went on to Marky Beatz v1.2 and get stuck in constant boot loops.
Tried flashing original roms that were the marquee version (Sprint)
There is no option to press Vol+ and Power to get software restore, and when i go to update through LGB2C it says my phones software isn't supported now this said that before i had even gone and touched anything.
It is rooted and has the super user in there somewhere. Any help would be appreciated.

Was able to get it back up and running by installing a Sprint Optimus Q? firmware now i'm stuck with all of this sprint stuff and i have 4 buttons i can hit the Q only has 3 anybody have any ideas on how to get most of my functionality by modifying this rom?

[CDMA][SPRINT] Every App Crashes

Some Info:
First things first: This is not my primary tablet anymore so If I can't get it working that is okay.
Second: I am trying to fix it for my parents or to sell it.
Third: It is the Sprint CDMA Version.
Okay so the problem with the tablet is when I turn on the device after flashing anything (whether it be the stock Gingerbread Rom via Odin/Heimdall or Cyanogenmod/AOKP) it works fine for a couple of moments... I set it up.. I open a couple of apps... and suddenly every single app starts to force close!!
On Stock it shows some apps like Swype and on ICS roms it shows some acore process.
I really want to know how to unbrick this and I can't send it in cause my warranty ended in February.
I'm also having a similar problem.
But I can't flash any ROM.
Even if I copy the zip file to the tab memory, after I reboot it, the file disappears. It always goes to Italian language. Can't remove the google account or the hotmail account.
I have tried to reset to factory defaults, etc and still the same...
Any ideas?
What android version your tablet have ?

Stock Gingerbread but the problem started when I had AOKP on it.
I tried flashing back to stock yesterday and now it's in a boot loop on the second Samsung logo after the Sprint logo.
The things that crash are android.process.acore, all gapps, Swype on stock, and Google Play.

[Q] Verizon service shuts down on CM9

I have an SCH-i800 that I have CM9 (p1c 9.1.0) installed on. I have been using it for several weeks with no problem. Since I am planning on going on a trip, I decided to active pre-paid Verizon service for the tablet. At first, I attempted to activate the device. It went through the phone call but after a minute, it just sat at activating. That is when I noticed that the radio state in the status bar had an X on it. I rebooted the tablet to try again and got "com.android.phone has topped unexpectedly". I re-flashed CM9 (at the time I was using 9.0.0) and it worked again. Activation was not necessary. After a day, the error came up again and radio state went to off with an X. I tried 9.1.0, same problem after a day. I even tried a nightly CM10, same problem. Reboots, cache wipes, permission fixes do not make it work. The error persists until a re-flash of CM. I see on the Support Downloads for the Verizon Tablet, there are two modem files. My baseband version is currently S:I800.0.3V.EI04. I have attempted to "flash" these both via Odin (which failed after a couple minutes) and ZIP (which looked like it worked) to the EC02 on the site, but my baseband doesn't seem to change.
So my first question is, is there a how-to on flashing as I have searched high and low on one for the Verizon Tab specifically, and have yet to find one. Is there a ZIP file that is specifically meant for the i800? I am almost certain this is my problem and that a downgrade (this tablet when stock was updated to the latest Verizon image).
My second question is, has anyone else experienced this? Is there someone that is using a CM9 Verizon tab with EI04 baseband and not have this problem?
Is there a way I can track down what crashed the program? I have tried logcat, but it doesn't appear to give me much detail other than to tell me that it stopped.
And if you ask, no I did not use the Verizon service with this tablet before putting CM9 on it, so I wouldn't know if it worked before.
Any input that someone could provide would be useful. Thanks!

Solution for lagging problems after v20X upgrade

Users following our Turkish Optimus 4X forum had lagging problems after v20C firmware update even after they performed a factory reset on the phone.
They complained that the phone was working very slowly and even after closing a simple application, the icons on the launcher page disappeared and appeared again.
Following is the solution that helped the users who had this problem:
Run LG Mobile Support Tool (use B2CAppSetup.exe to install) and connect your phone to the PC with USB cable.
In the application menu select Customer Support/Recovery Phone and follow the instructions.
The application is going to download the latest JB firmware for your phone and reflash it on the phone.
Hope this helps the users who have a similar problem.
Please note that although other flashing options might also be useful, this is a simple solution which can be performed by anyone who can use LG software.
(The solution was posted by a 53 year old forum user who is not an expert on neither Android phones nor Windows OS.)
I am gonna try this right now!
UPDATE: still laggy.....
That problem also happened on V20A in my opinion..
Yes....I flashed v20a, v20b, v20c...then I did factory reset everytime...and problem still persist.....I started to have this problem when I installed v20a
Needed to wipe phone anyway as G-Apps had an issue
But cant see a difference so far
*edit*
I noticed last night my play store UI changed
I did a factory reset, then followed the recovery in LG support tool.
Memory use stayed the same, but so far having no other issues with my phone.

[Q] No Service/No contacts?

So this is my first time rooting/flashing so I'm not a pro at what I'm doing but I wanted to give it a try
Anyway, so I rooted my S3 Mini with Unified Android Toolkit and backed up apps etc. Then installed CyanogenMod on my phone. Everything is okay except for 2 issues.
1) I haven't got any SIM Contacts, were these deleted when I wiped the phone and now I can't do anything about it?
2) I see 'No Service' on my phone when I bring the toolbar down from the top of the screen. See this is weird because I have service and am using the internet, but I don't actually have a registered network. I went to network providers, scanned and tapped my network, but even then, there was no change. I am running a UK S3 Mini on baseband ...XXAMJ2 and Installed Jellybean 4.1.2 (CyanogenMod 10) 20130727 from Maclaw'NovaFusion
When I rooted with the Toolkit, I chose the option [Up to ALL7] if that makes any difference?
Is there any way I can see which network I'm running because I'm confused and was gonna just flash the stock rom and unroot...
Thank you
P.S Also just checked in About Phone and my Network/Service Status comes up there, and my mobile data works, but it still says No Service when I bring the top toolbar down?!

For the SIM contacts: Try to pop in you SIM to an old phone and check if the contacts are still there, if yes good, if no... my condolences.
I strongly recommend to switch to CM11, it's working just fine, with no major bugs or problems. Well, i'm using it and i'm very picky when it comes to bugs and other issues.
The point is, you have to re-flash you phone anyway and along the way, you can update to a better android version.

With switching to CM11... I'm currently on 10 because my S3 was running 4.1.2 originally, if I were to flash the 4.4.2 rom, would it work and be compatible? Sorry if it seems like a basic question, I'm not really that knowledgeable about this
EDIT: Just did this, worked wonders! Thank you!
