I suggest updating to the latest TWRP and flash the rom. If you get no signal or data, update your radio in TWRP too.

[Q] Should I upgrade baseband?

Hello,
New user to a Nexus 4. I have unlocked and rooted the phone, have cwm installed for my custom recovery. I am currently running MIUIv5 however I am thinking of switching to a much lighter/less bloated rom such as the latest CM.
I bought the phone factory set, I am 99% sure it had 4.3 installed but I can't be 100% sure as I had rooted the phone the rom bug hit me!!
So, to flash a 4.3 rom such as CM10.2 do I need a baseband upgrade?
Currently on: M9615A-CEFWMAZM-2.0.1700.84
Thanks,
Looks like you are already on the latest baseband so there is no need to flash one.
Thank you

[Q] Baseband downgrade

hi,
currently running a 4.4 based purity rom.
while flashing miui v5 and older 4.3 based custom roms, was unable to get wifi, blue tooth and sound working.
understand this is a problem due to the radio/ baseband and i need to have a 4.2/4.3 baseband for this to work without problem.
is it possible to directly flash only the .84 baseband image in 4.4 via twrp?
if suppose i face problems after downgrading the baseband, can i upgrade back to the original radio/baseband by directly flashing only the newer baseband?
or would i need to go all the way back to install 4.3 factory image to get the .84 radio?
thanks in advance for your help.
Flash what you want in recovery and be done. There is no special process to do this.
Yes you can go ahead flash .84 image. If you encounter any problem; flashing back 4.4 baseband will fix the problem. You can flash back and forth with no problem.

[Q] Advice on updating

I've been neglecting my phone for a while, so I decided I should update my rom. Currently I'm running an ls980 with an old beanstalk build with the zv8 ota being the last one I installed. I'm looking through the mahdi thread to flash to it, and I was wondering if anyone could guide me through the process. Do I need to flash a new modem since I'm running a 4.4 build? Also, at what point throughout the installation could I update to zvd or is it even compatible with mahdi? Last I remember was when zva came out and there was some issue with the bootloader it caused. Does that happen with zvd? I appreciate any help

[Nexus 4] Upgrading from Paranoid Android 4.6 to Lollipop OTA update, will I face any

I have a custom ROM flashed (PA 4.6) and keep receiving the notification to update Lollipop 5.0. I actually want to stay with stock Lollipop for now, but didn't know if I would face any issues if I accepted the update.
Any one have any insight? Thanks in advance!

OTA needs stock everything. Since you're on a custom rom, the update will fail to install, so don't. If you want sock lollypop, backup your data and flash the factory image.

What's needed to flash the latest 5.0.2 roms?

Hello, could someone tell me exactly what is needed to flash the latest lollipop roms? I'm running TWRP 2.8.3.0 and supersu 2.40 yet I'm unable to flash any 5.0.2 roms since I get an error in recovery saying "error in executing updater binary in zip". I think my brother was running 2.8.2.0 and had the same error message.
I had no trouble flashing the initial 5.0 lollipop roms and just recently tried flashing a 5.0.2 rom after running 4.4.2 xdabbeb for a while.
What exactly do I need to do or update to flash the latest roms and how to I fix this error?
Thank you
Recently experienced same thing. Even thought I lost root. In my case it was a newer app. Don't know how or why. Uninstalled app and all was fine. Could flash roms again. Hope ? this helps.

As long as you have the correct radio flashed for lollipop refer to my post here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g2/help/error-executing-updater-binary-zip-twrp-t2988604
I describe how I fixed this problem for myself.
D802 eur ,here from cloudy g3 going to 5.0.2 with no problem.Philz touch v5.0.4.7 full wipe and flashed ROM+gapps...
You have to flash the rom(cm12) , the lollipop gapps and Supersu(Zip-file).
If you do not flash Supersu, you WILL loose your Root!!!
