I did that for myself but it could be useful, so why not share it!
This is the standard Froyo JPM kernel build from sources
It contains the su binary which calls Superuser.apk
Download this app from the market, and you're all set ^^
If you want a Froyo phone rooted cleanly and still secure, that's it.
Kernel to flash as PDA using Odin with 803.pit
Kernel sources:
http://github.com/project-voodoo/samsung_kernel_sources_gt-i9000/tree/froyo
Superuser app:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=682828
If you need more info, just ask
PS: I'm not sure every apps are happy with the need to call su from /sbin, which is in the ramdisk.
At least you can do everything you want from adb, and once you're root there is no limit
thank you very much.
You're always so kind!!!
Great! Gonna try JPM tomorrow.

How is this different from Chainfire's method? What is the advantage of using this over that? Thanks

The difference is that Chainfire uses the Samsung compiled kernel, while this one is compiled from GPL sources. Should be no differences, but for some reason this kernel is a lot bigger than the Samsung one. Anybody know why? Compiler options?

Interesting I also would like to know what's the difference before I try to flash it on my SGS.
By the way, thanks to supercurio, RyanZA and all the developers
main diff for me is this is just a rooted kernel. it doesn't come with other goodies like superuser, and more imptly the e2 recovery which means i cna't do apply update.zip from the recovery mode using this kernel.
but i look forward to supercurio on the voodoo fix

So with this, su is in sbin instead of system/xbin. Can we not move it/copy it to xbin if necessary? Is this a big deal?

Yes you can. In fact, CF-Root does exactly that... it also contains all files in /sbin and /res, but at first boot install them to /system.

Yes that's it
This kernel does no special action ^^ it's just JM2 compiled from sources (presumably the same as Samsung's compiled) with an added file in /sbin
It's a bigger because for some reason the modules are quite big once compiled, they're probably not fully stripped and... because I included the ext4 kernel modules
hey ...
did u use z4build to implement ext4 support?
or can i run it and then use update.zip (z4mod) for ext4?
quick reply would be great ... just flashed to http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=796987

Sorry i don't understand your question
Hi sir,
I download the ramdisk voodoo provide from http://project-voodoo.org/downloads/Voodoo-beta4-GT-I9000-ramdisk.tar.bz2 and compile it with official JPM source code. So far no problem during compilation. But I know the ramdisk /lib/module/ file is slightly different from what i extract from official zImage.
So my question is, is your ramdisk compatible with froyo source code from samsung?
thanks,

I'v had for a few hours DOC v4 JPU ROM and samsung app gave more results for apps to install.
I went back to Orange official rom JP8 and I have much less apps to choose from.
Is there some kind of fix for it?

I dont no exactly how it works but when i flashed a different csc i got more results.
it isn't the build.prop or productkey i think..
How to flash a different csc? Now i am using darky rom v7
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App
I guess when you flash a firmware with odin you can select different pda, modem and csc files. so you can flash jp8 pda and jpa modem with any csc file.
Just using market enabler, then select operator you want, after launch samsung apps, it will show you the apps of other region...

Note: must have adb, root, and busybox
Code:
adb shell
su
busybox mount -o remount,rw /system
cd /system/csc
echo XEU > sales_code.dat
You can replace XEU with whatever csc code you would like.
XEU has the most apps... BMC has a special Samsung Push E-mail/IM app... and some other country codes have other apps translated to their language, look in the Collecting all "ProductCode"="phone models types" for Kies flash thread for more codes (just take the last 3 letters of the product code)
Woo Woo, new apps from samsung, Kies Air and a stack of others.
Check it out
They've been available here in the uk for a while now. The MMAJunkie app is sweet.
By the way... every time I flash a new ROM, I have different apps available from Samsung apps..... on Docs Rom 5.1 I had 15 apps... on Docs Rom 6.0 now it shows 7...
Is there a way to fix this and show all apps available?
I'm on 2.2.1 and for some reason only have eight:
Task Manager 1.5.1
TV QWERTY remote control app 1.0
This day in history 1.0
Asphalt 5 3.03
Vlingo 1.4
Robert Parker 1.0
Movies 2.96
Krazy Kart Racing 1.27
Is there some way to update the apps list?
I changed my region from KOR to XEU and got 20 something apps available. Before I had 4 o 5.
Is there any way to remove the counter? Once I've checked out the apps I don't want the number to appear over the icon.
After the last upgrade to 2.2.1 I havent run the samsung market so there is no number but that's more like a workaround than a real solution

sorry but what is csc?
I don't have the Samsung Apps in my heavily modded ROM. Could someone post a list of all the available apps so that I could decide whether I should install Samsung Apps or not.

Read it carefully though, pretty sure it will wipe your phone
*#272*IMEI#
where IMEI is your imei code ( you can check your imei by pressing *#06# )
when you change CSC your telephone make a factory reset. Backup data first
I changed my csc to xeu as i was on kor but dont get new apps??? What am i doing wrong??

need root.
you can download a csc file (uk one or others) extract with 7zip the csc folder and the sw_configuration.xml.
push them to your sdcard.
then use root explorer or similar to overwrite the system/csc folder and overwrite the sw_configuration.xml.
no data reset!
worked for me
Edit: an easier solution works on jpx and jpy
1. open root explorer to system/csc/xeu/system
2. copy: cscfiles.txt,cscversion.txt,sw_configuration.xml (all files)
3. goto system/ and paste all files
4. open root explorer to system/csc/xeu/system/csc
5. copy all files to system/csc/
and now you have 25 apps in samsung apps.

MUCH easier solution, on this single file: /system/csc/sales_code.dat
1) backup / take note of your current file for later restoring
2) change its contents with whatever csc you like (take a list from other threads...):
e.g.:
# echo 'XEU' > /system/csc/sales_code.dat
3) rescan samsungapps and enjoy downloading new stuff. Restart again and again from 2
4) restore your original sales_code.dat file in its place

i recently have my defy, out of the box, i SKIPPED the motoblur create account.
then i updated via MSU and now i am running 2.2 froyo. i wanted to create my motoblur account now but the "accounts" app (with the "M" and blur logo) is missing/not in the app drawer.
1. is my updated froyo still with blur? (i updated and my location is saudi arabia)
2. if with blur, why i cant find it (the "accounts" app)?
3. how can i determine if my defy is with motoblur?
4. i just wanted to have "via Motoblur" status on facebook , not the "via Android".
5. and of course back up my contacts via motoblur.
please help me..thanks in advance.
Is your device rooted?
Sent from my MB525 using XDA Premium App
no, it is not rooted, just upgraded to froyo a day after i buy it..
Create a motoblur account, If a motoblur account has not been created than it can not say your status has been updated "via motoblur" also be sure to download the app via Market called "Facebook for Android" let me know what happens
Sent from my MB525 using XDA Premium App
by default (i reset it), it has a facebook widget then i logged in to it, still the status is "via android"..
btw, i dont get the create motoblur account after resetting it.
what should i do? how to determine if my version of android is with or without motoblur?
Checking for the application, go to settings..application.. manage applications.. all.. scroll through this list of applications and see if you can find anything relating to motoblur.. did you update by flashing or via auto update?
Go to setting.. about phone.. and list current android version
Sent from my MB525 using XDA Premium App
Under the manage applications, you should be looking for a app called "Accounts" ill will be a red background with a M and BLUR in the application icon. Positive its there if all you did was skip the set up.. when upgraded from enclair to froyo it didn't give me a option to skip.

Have you notice that if you use Maclaw's rom, some apps that you want to download is not appearing. You maybe thinking that that app might be took down but in fact it is still there. This has to do with the build.prop settings in /system. This is how you can you can enable more downloadable apps on Maclaw's Rom.
Step 1
_____
Go to Cyanogenmod File Manager and enter settings to enable root access.
A pop-up should appear once you allow root access.
Choose allow root access forever.
Step 2
_____
Go to root folder and enter /system folder and open up build.prop file with text editor.
Step 3
_____
Edit this part:
Original
ro.build.product=GT-I8160
To:
ro.build.product=codina
And:
Original
ro.product.device=GT-I8160
To:
ro.product.device=codina
I may be wrong and I am sorry about that but if this really works for you, please leave a thanks and reply!:good:
Note: interceptor-ng does not work on all custom roms.
Easy, just change to I9300 or 500 or so. Codina is more of a 'code name' not model number. P.S. maybe you have to edit model too
