Using JDFlasher with DB2010 phones
Jul 18
DB2010 phones are K750, D750, W800, W300, Z530, etc. Use DBCIDExplorer to know what your phone is.
We always focused on DB2020 platform as our phones (mine and Akshay’s are K550@W610 models). We talked about the Quick-Access thing, without mentioning the history of patching.
Now it is clear that using JDFlasher is better than using SeTool2Lite, because it is faster and you can apply several patches with it without disconnecting the phone.
Downloads:
Drivers,
FAR Manager,
JDFlasher plugin For FAR Manager.
As always, the first step is Backing up your GDFS (if you haven’t done it yet).
Before starting JDFlasher, you’ll need to create the REST (restoration) file for your phone. Patching DB2010 phones work like this: first the program flashes an SSW file (to break in the phone), that way it can access the phone to patch it, that ruins some blocks of the phone’s firmware. When you are done, you flash on a REST file that restores the damage that flashing the SSW causes (JDFlasher does it automatically). It contains the blocks from the firmware that are changed when the SSW is flashed.
Now to create the REST file you need mkrest2.exe. It is a command line application of JDFlasher. Go to FAR Manager’s directory, there in Plugins\jdflasher\rest. There you’ll find it.
Open Command Prompt there, type “mkrest2.exe <your firmware file>”. The easiest way is copying your firmware to the same directory and renaming it like “firmware”, then type “mkrest2.exe firmware”. Now you have the REST file, you can go ahead with JDFlasher.
So now start FAR Manager, hit Alt+F1, and select just da flasher. In the dialog that appears, select your phone on the left, DCU-60 for the second combobox and the highest speed for the third. Reinsert the battery of the phone.
Click jump down into a large rabbit-hole and connect the phone holding C button.
If everything goes ok, you’ll get 4 directories. oflash, ofs, bflash, bfs.
oflash - There you can flash main firmware and FS.
ofs - You can access filesystem, upload and delete files.
bflash - You can flash firmwares and you can APPLY PATCHES!
bfs - Access filesystem and download files, too.
Flashing works like this: on the left you select oflash/bflash, then on the right select the bin firmware file or the vkp patch file, and hit F5. (Like copying files with two-panel file managers.)
When you’re done, select the ‘..’ on the top of your left panel, and hit Enter. In bflash, it will ask if you want to “restore the firmware”, select yes, it will flash the REST file on.
ofs and bfs work like two-panel file managers, nothing interesting. In bfs it will have to restore firmware.
Get patches from mobilefree.ru, use Google Translator to understand what they write. Be careful, when you copy from translator the result will not work as it writes every line in russian and in english. Don’t use it when you save.
I guess that’s it folks.

Peti

Hey Peti,
Will I be able to flash my k530 into w660 using JDFlasher. Because my CID is 53. If so could you point me the way to get the FS and main for CID 53 of W660. I saw in the posts that many people having problem in flashing CID 53 phones. If you can repond to this topic that would be great.
thanks

Yes but no with this tutorial, there is another JDFlasher tutorial on this site, http://www.akshayy.com/sonyericsson/tutorials/jdflasher-flashingcustomization-tutorial/
To get firmwares… share2flash is gone. So se-nse.com and topse.ru will help for free. But if you can’t find them, you’ll need to buy it from seusers.com. :S

this works for cid53 phones?
Jul 19 at 13:36
According to den_po (author of this), it works on DB2012 CID53, your W200. By the way, DB2010 phones don’t get CID53.

Then maybe I was wrong and DB2012 doesn’t work like DB2010. Connect to JDFlasher with db2012 script. Before doing so, obtain a CID 53 main firmware for your phone. (in case the process would ruin main FW)

my fon is DB2010 cid52 red r4ja011.
Jul 20 at 09:50
when you say to make a rest file on your firmware what you mean?the firmware has 2 files , .mbn and .fbn , which should i use?
sorry for so many questions , i am newb with phones
Jul 20 at 11:03
@Arpan: nope, W200 is DB2012, though in many places they call it DB2010. As I said connect with DB2012 script.
@hotman: You have W200i too, right? So you won’t need REST, you go ahead with DB2012 script.

ok my phone is a w300 and its a bd2010 but i can only choose db2020 or qa2020 in the box when it asks for your script
Jul 23 at 02:34
oki got the w300 script by updating to a newer version of the jd flasher program but i cant make the rest file the application turns on and turns off almost instantly and it doesn’t give me the chance to type the firmware thing
Jul 23 at 04:14
oh and can you please make a tutorial for gslide ?
Jul 23 at 13:09
@Arpan: I’m getting confused… ask den_po himself about what scripts to use, or check some scripts if they work… By the way, what is that “yr asl plz”?:O
@badtime: download a different JDFlasher release. The one at se-nse works for sure.
Never used GSlide.xD
