JdFlasher Flashing/Customization Tutorial

May 04

This tutorial discuses flashing firmware/de-branding/customization with JDflasher.

JD Flasher as of this writing supports the following phones.
Firmware Flashing/FS-Write/Customization for db2000/db2010/db2012/db2020/pnx5230 (CID36 to CID53). Modified FW flashing, Unlocking, VKP Patching , FS-read, ONLY for DB2000/2010 with CID36/CID49 and DB2020 CID52.

In short All Sony Ericsson Phones are supported for Flashing/Customization except w910, w890, k850. And it also means unlocking/patching ONLY for db2020 CID52, db2010 CID49, db2000 CID36. Still no problems if you can’t unlock as you can at least flash and customize your phone with flash menus, acoustics, camera drivers, fonts etc.

Quick Tutorial on how to use JDFlasher.

First Install USB Flash Driver.
Do a GDFS backup if not done previously.
CID53 users can’t do gdfs backup with jdflasher !!!

Installing JD Flasher: Download Far Manager, either from official website or from here. Install Far manager, then copy JD Flasher folder to Plugins folder in Far Manager. Else download the ready to use JDFlasher+Far Manager !

NOTE: JDflasher download updated, added CID53 recovery files. Updated on May 8th 2008.

Connecting phone to JDflasher.

  1. Shutdown phone.
  2. Start Far Manger.
  3. Press Alt+F1, select JDflasher.
  4. In script, choose a phone if available else choose script as db2010/db2020.
  5. Speed select the max, and port is DCU-60 as always.
  6. Hit Jump Down Into a Large Rabbit hole.
  7. Reinsert battery.
  8. Connect phone holding C.
  9. Wait for Initialization.

Note on Exit: In order to successfully shutdown phone, you just move to root by clicking … option at the top and JDflasher will ask if you want to quit. Always exit after you finish your operations.

Getting back once you are in will at least 2 options and max of 4 options depending upon your phone. All phones will get ofs/oflash. The four options are,

  1. oflash >> Regular FW Flashing Mode to flash firmware/debrand/Crossflash.
  2. ofs >> Usual Far Manager usage mode to upload thing to FS
  3. bfs >> breakin FS mode with FS read.
  4. bflash >> breakin FW flashing mode used for vkp and mod babe flash.
Using JDFlasher !
Oflash/Flashing a Firmware/Debranding.
  1. Start JDflasher.
  2. Connect phone to JdFlasher as said above.
  3. Enter oflash mode.
  4. On right side navigate to firmware location on computer.
  5. Select firmware in the right side.
  6. Press F5.
  7. Click Copy.
  8. Then Ensure that the option flash as babe image is selected.
  9. Click “Yeah Flash it”.
  10. Wait for flashing of all blocks to complete.

You can flash main/fs using jdflasher. To debrand the phone flash both the main and fs. Also remember after flashing FS you need to add the CDA. Download CDA and copy them to tpa/preset/custom using ofs. If you forget to add the cda files to phone fs using ofs then you will end up getting a Configuration Error.

Ofs/Customization: Its the regular far manager sefp mode to add flash menus, acoustics, camera drivers and all other customization. As you select ofs you enter the file system of the phone, perform the operations of uploading files etc. To copy files from the computer just drag and drop them from right side to left side. You can also delete files from phone FS. This mode is same as far manager, follow the far tutorial to know more about usage of this mode.

Important NOTES:

Note db2010 users: Make sure that the REST file for your phone is present in JDflasher Rest Directory. If not just use the mkrest2.exe to make the rest file. Just Drag your FS Fbn file on mkrest2 to get the REST file for your phone. Mkrest2 is given with JDflasher in REST folder.

Note db2020 users: If you use any of the breaking methods while using db2020 script then you will have to reflash main firmware always before exit.

Bfs/Breakin FS: Is same as ofs but with FS read, which means you can copy files from phone FS to your computer.
Bflash/Breaking Flash: Used to apply patches, can be used to flash firmware also. Now a quick tutorial to apply patches for db2010, The tutorial to apply patches for db2020 is bit different please refer here.
  1. Connect phone.
  2. Enter Bflash.
  3. Navigate to patch on right side.
  4. Hit F5.
  5. Click Copy.
  6. Ensure the option flash as vkp is selected
  7. Click Yeah flash it.
  8. Wait for patch flash.
  9. Then apply more patches.
  10. Then Exit by moving to root.
If you wanted to remove a patch, select the patch that you had applied, press F5, Click copy, then you will find the usual options and also a option to check/select remove patch. Select the option and hit yeah flash it.
Tutorial to be updated in a week, more usage and tips will added soon.

Akshay

    thanks for this tutorial

    for some reason i can’t access my file system :S

    it says something about a set directory and bad answer

    please help! :(

  2. Peti
    May 04 at 20:34

    Are flash drivers installed?

  3. Hetty McCarthy
    May 04 at 20:38

    im not sure - im not completely sure what they are

  4. Peti
    May 04 at 21:04
  5. Hetty McCarthy
    May 04 at 22:37

    im pretty sure i have them already cause the reason im using this in the first place is cause i updated my phone with SEUS and turned it into CID53

  6. Peti
    May 05 at 11:52

    oh.
    Then maybe this is an outdated version of JDFlasher, which does not support CID 53 yet. Then obtain the newest JDFlasher and try with it. (mobilefree.ru maybe)

  7. Hetty McCarthy
    May 05 at 19:16

    its already the latest one - it detects my phone unlike the older version i also have

    do you know if the battery has to be fully charged? mine was like 97% or something - im sure it wouoldn’t have made a difference but its the only thing i can think of that might be wrong..

  8. Peti
    May 05 at 21:28

    It has to be over 40% or so. Under that it might get unstable. But that is also rare.
    Now you should clearly tell what you are doing. Which buttons you click and what are selected in the comboboxes.

    hi,

    w810 - battery ok - phone not turning on - got the following:

    RESTORATION FILE NOT PRESENT
    “R4DB005_CXC1250316_GENERIC_HN”
    YOU MUST PERFORM FULL FLASHING FOR PATCH UNLOCK

    is this the tutorial to do this?

    thanks
    Peter

  10. Peti
    May 06 at 11:55

    You have two options.
    1. Get a REST file for your current FW (which I couldn’t fount by the way), open your phone in FAR Manager, select FLASH dir, and upload the rest file there.
    2. Reflash main as it is.

    If you are lucky, your phone is CID 52. If not, you can find a tutorial with which you can updgrade it from 49/51 to 52.
    I suggest reading the K550-W610 crossflash tutorial, it writes about the procedure pretty much. The files you need should be available at topse.ru, mobilefree.ru, sek750.extra.hu…

  13. Rahul
    May 07 at 04:14

    Umm.!u didnt get me peti,i wanted to ask that firmware available on net is KG and my is GB can i upgrade the new1.ok files i need kg main,kg fs and which custpack(should fs and custpack match).i read operation failed tut which says in last that it is better to take it 2 SE service to fix the prob in 5 min.wont it convert ph to cid53. but i wanted2 modd.(em afraid of bricking My ph,nor in a cond. 2 buy new 1,neither can live without 1.)mistake while flashin can kill my ph.?eagerly waitin 4 ur help.detailed1

  14. Peti
    May 07 at 08:35

    Oh that… it doesn’t matter which main & fs you flash on, it has to be for w830, but that’s it.
    The custpack is not firmware version dependent, only the region (ASIA_LEVAN) matters.
    I don’t have files for that region, but try searching topse.ru or mobilefree.ru…

  17. Pank

    ok thanks for that info.
    i just now tried it on my k550@w610 CID52 its working.

    so you say its not working for CID53…??
    download the recovery files from here and put them in.

    thanks for informing this. updating the Jdflasher download.
    new one should work fine.

  19. Pank
    May 08 at 07:15

    Thanx man… that worked.. :)
    And tell me, can i copy my phones original drivers to my pc??

  24. Peti
    May 08 at 09:19

    Wtih JDFlasher, after Quick-Acccess Patch is applied, you can. ;)

  25. Pank
    May 08 at 09:44

    Is it possible to apply Quick-Acccess Patch to CID53 phone??
    And i want to change accoustics of my phone then without Quick-Acccess Patch should i delete and copy new one instead???

  26. Akshay
    May 08 at 10:01

    hey pank you download a CID52 FS.. and extract it.
    that’s the way to backup contents of FS.

    CID53 firmware i don’t have them.
    they are available at seusers.com

    you can’t apply patches for CID53………!! so no quick access.
    to change acoustics just overwrite old acoustics with new one.

    can it be done via bfs option in jdflasher ??????
    can xs be used for making backup ???
    thanks

  37. Akshay
    May 10 at 14:12

    Pank .. no idea.
    DEEP… as i said in tutorial… all phones won’t get all options. Read tutorial carefully.. it says what JD flasher supports for what phones right in beginning.

    extracting is best method. else apply QA and then using QA use bfs. see jdflasher patching tutorial.

    Rahul .. am not sure about your questions.

    ok now just relax… there is no problem in the phone. its ok
    now if you want to flash the phone to w610i you will need w610 CID53 firmwares. which i don’t have.
    you have to buy CID53 w610 firmwares. or try to download them from http://www.seusers.com
    you can flash the CID53 firmwares into the k550 using JDflasher.

  45. G-Why

  48. Peti
    May 13 at 05:38

    That’s it, this site needs a FAQ!!
    Main is the main firmware, contains the software parts. Generic means that it can be used anywhere.
    CDA=Custpack, necessary for customization, contains settings, languages for example.

    # Then Ensure that the option flash as babe image is selected.

    the option flash as a babe is grayed out so i cannot check it

    tried on two k800i cid 53 phones
    any ideas ???
    pls help

  59. Peti
    May 25 at 09:25

    It may be an old edition?
    You must use MBN file for flashing, check if it is packed in rar/zip, if so, unpack it.

    May 26 at 21:15

    Can you tell me please can I mode my K550i (cid53 of course) to w610 with this software W610_R8BA024_MAIN_GENERIC_NA_RED53 with that method what you wrote on this site (simply overwrite as I understood) ???

  61. Peti
    May 27 at 05:24

    Yes, this will work all right. Overwriting is not correct though, these are not real files on the phone, so you don’t overwrite, you flash chips. :D

    Hey there. I have a question.

    I had a locked phone to three.

    I read a a tutorial how to flash the phone and followed it. Thus I was only interesting in unlokcing it.

    I downloaded main and fs firmware and flash it with setoool2lite. using a a patch file as well that I got from simlockpathgen tool when I did it on the downloaded main firmware.

    all was good, but the phone sa “contact network provider, cinfiguarion error” when I started my phone later.

    then I went to SE original update service and updated the phone there, so now I have cid53.

    I cant use any ordinary programs to put in the downloaded firmware anymore because of cid53. is there any way I can solve this problem and flash my hpone so it works and isnt locked.

    the problem with the configuration error on display has spomething to do with the CAD “custom pack” wasnt installd. beacuse there was an option I couldnt pick in xs++ tools like it said in the tutorial so I gacve up, ended in trying SE update tool and fucked it all up.

  68. Pavoo
    Jun 06 at 00:09

    still don’t work…..giving the same error

  69. Akshay
    Jun 06 at 05:43

    that sucks.. no idea

    can you try flashing in a w610 firmware in that phone and using some other firmware.

    download jdflasher from Se-nse.net and try again.
    this time don’t add the recovery files..

    use only test 1 and test 2
    just google search jdflasher se-nse.

  70. Akshay
    Jun 06 at 05:50

    badduck… you are identified as SPAM.. by the SYSTEM,
    thankfully i could manually make out and retain your comment.

    next time use a working email id….

    now you can’t unlock that phone.
    only flashing/debranding/customization.

    you should now download CDA files and then copy the CDA files to correct location
    basically the customize.xml and preloaded congif xml files

    tpa/preset/custom

    copy it using JDFlasher OFLASH option. Using Db2020 script.

    phone should start.

  77. Peti

    K790 doesn’t support flash menus. So you can’t.

    Also remember after flashing FS you need to add the CDA. but where i get the CDA ? my phone is k810

  79. Peti
    Jun 10 at 12:57

    Try sek750.extra.hu. You can modify a CDA to a different region.

    sorry to tell you JDflasher does not has db2010 and db2012 CID53 Flash loaders.

    It has only db2020 CID53 flash loaders. so your phone won’t work with JDflasher.

    Hay…Mr. How about patching n crossflashing K750 CID 49 RED to W800, i want use R1BD001 firmware, can i use jdflasher to flashing it? How to do that? Is there must use Gslide to sliding/changing the block firmware to 344 bloks before flasing the MAIN n FS as a toturial using Phone XS? or directly flashing/using the W800 firmware n FS ?

    Thanks in advance…:)

  93. Akshay

    NGHDOA

    Well if your phone is CID49 then use CID49 firmwares only. Any CID49 will do.

    and please use XS++ to flash phone to w800.
    because its CID49.
    its easier using XS++

    Hi friends i just wanna share some thing which i noticed may be it’s known but still i flashed my K550@W610 back to K550 doing every thing and my phone became brand new but in bluetooth device list old list were still there none of other things remained just thought you would like to know

  130. Peti
    Jun 19 at 18:52

    @Dani: seflashing.extra.hu is our forum. Please don’t use both languages here, only English.
    @bhuvan: not hard to see why. Downloading files from FS with JDFlasher is only possible on CID52 after Quick-Access patch. On CID 53 there is no such things, so you can’t copy stuff to pc from it. For a few months from now, it will be possible then. Renaming is that JDFlasher doesn’t know which command to send… so I’d love to help, but not possible yet.
    @SASHI: so GDFS stores them, as well as tasks. Strange, tasks erase when you reflash… :D

    I’m worried about not having a backup of the GDFS because I want to be able to get back to a nice’n'fresh K550i if I screw up any flashing.

    Can JDFlasher now backup a CID53 GDFS?

    Can I just say also, I had no idea there was such a healthy phone modding scene and both Akshay and Peti, you are top class.

    Manndaar seems to think CID53 GDFS Backup is possible. Link here –> http://manndaar.freeforums.org/erom-repair-gdps-back-up-restoration-t10.html

    The ‘FLASH’ part of his tutorial freeks me out a little.

    Jdflasher can’t backup anything
    its ok not a big deal….. nothing to worry.

    Do you think it’s a good idea to go ‘w610′ firmware without a GDFS backup?

    yeah no problem.
    but you don’t do wrong things…

    and not to worry people do wrong things only on SeTool 2lite.
    its impossible to do wrong things in jdflasher.

    W610_R6BC002_MAIN_GENERIC_NA_RED53.rar and W610_R6BC002_FS_EUROPE_4_RED53.rar. What kind of custom pack is needed?

    ash.. wait for some more time.
    k850 free flashing will be implemented.
    ELROL.
    hmm may be the firmware is not a babe image.
    or try to use keyborad carefully.
    or the mouse..

    strange you can’t select it..
    what are you actually trying to do ?

    i have a W580I CID53 but i have no idea what firmware to use to debrand it:S could someone please help me out? stone-sour08@hotmail.com

    i have a w580 CID 53 and i was following the tutorial:

    Connect phone
    Enter oflash mode.
    On right side navigate to firmware location on computer.
    Select firmware in the right side.
    Press F5.
    Click Copy.
    Then Ensure that the option flash as babe image is selected.

    here, the option flash as a babe can’t be selected…. why could that be?

    Matt Tilley
    You should use GENERIC CID53 Firmware to de-brand.
    May be the flash as babe image is selected as default and can’t be changed.
    just check it out once.
    If so then just continue.
    Post a screenshot.. let me see.. what’s the problem there with you.

    When i flashed i had all options open.

    I had to send my W580i in for warranty repair recently. Before that time, the firmware on the phone was a CID52 variety and I could easily flash it/debrand it with another CID52 variety. However, since I sent it in, it is now a CID53. My question is can I flash it back to a debranded CID52 from the now CID53 version. I want to do this because I have tons of patches and such made specifically for the CID52.

  156. Peti

    No, you can’t, CID can’t be downgraded.

  157. Scott
    Jun 30 at 17:49

    The other thing I heard is that in order to debrand a CID53 phone using JDFlasher, the phone must first be unlocked. Is this true. My phone is currently locked with AT&T/Cingular and I never had problems before when it was CID52, I was wondering if something has changed.

  158. Alvin
    Jun 30 at 19:45

    Scott - No, the CID53 W580 doesn’t have to be unlocked in order to debrand with JDFlasher.

  159. Peti
    Jun 30 at 19:58

    Yes, Scott, Alvin is right, besides, it can’t be patch-unlocked yet… (so no free unlocking at the moment)

    Hi ppl, I’m new to these things and could use some help, I have a w380 and I’m trying to apply a camera mod, I installed the usb driver and followed the tutorial, but when I try to acess/ enter / wtv (bad english here) the ofs I get this message after all the loading:

    “GetFindData<getdir<send89data<IOusb::dcu_WriteData>>>>”

    where did I screw up? D:

    Maybe used a bad script. But for beginners, I suggest using XS++ FSX. ;)

  162. Victor
    Jul 04 at 21:19

    I would, but my phone is cid53, XS++ can’t handle that yet can it?

    thanks for the supor anyway :)

    Does it happen that the phone just disconnects from the pc when you use MyPhoneExplorer? Due to bad cable?

    The problem is that you don’t use Mozilla Firefox. Also your internet connection may not be ok.
