[RELEASE] Froyo DXJPA one-step flash package

Okay people, its done!
This is the procedure and firmware package for a single-step flash to DXJPA using Odin:
http://touristinparadise.blogspot.com/2010/11/samsung-galaxy-s-how-to-install-froyo.html
If you flash using that procedure, you should get a 'stock' DXJPA phone will all DX-series CSCs. Unfortunately, it *will* do a factory reset / wipe data.
DXJPA is the official Froyo for the Southeast Asian region: Singapore, Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand, Vietnam, Philippines.
DXJPA is tricky because it really needs PIT 513 (it's the only ROM, as far as I know), probably because the /system partition size needs to be very big for the carrier customizations.
I've basically combined the missing parts from DXJPA with the files from the original DXJG4 and used the correct PIT.

Bro, thanks. now downloading from multiupload site. going to try flashing directly through odin1.7 with pit513 directly and will report back to see if successful or not.
btw, time to change your signature?
p/s: is it okay to use your k7 kernel on this rom?
edit: looking at the downloaded file from Richtofen, the modem.bin is missing. hmm....
edit2: after reviewing, i am using your package to flash.

No bro, you should use my download link. All the other packages have the wrong dbdata and the CSC wont work properly - unless u do the 2 step from DXJG4 to DXJPA.

Hey bro. Did you find any significant changes between this ROM compare to ADJP5 like does it work better with your kernel? Just curious.
Thanks!

ADJP5 is from another region. The DX series is for Southeast Asia. And yup, it works with my kernel too - all Froyo ROMs work.

yeah, i notice a huge difference in the dbdata.rfs as well as the cache.rfs. The cache.rfs should be containing all the bloatware apps i presume.
now flashing, almost done now.
give me sometime, and i will do the batterymod if anyone is interested.

Someone needs to work on customizing this ROM so we can save more space.

hmm, seems to get stuck at bootup screen, but no black screen yet. will wait a bit longer, and get into recovery to wipe cache, do a factory reset.
edit: just booted up. haha...

hardcore, posted this in the other thread. posting here again:-
is it possible to convert this to cwm package (like how doc rambone does with his jpa/jpo roms) so that it can be flashed without wiping out all the data and settings?

PDA JS2 + Modem JPY
CSC ITV JS1
Pass: esticbo
I add in the PDA the boot.bin and the sbl.bin from the JS5 so we can use this rom to come back from the JV1

Yeah, but I prefer keep XWJS5 with JPU modem and speedmod-kernel-13c, which work like a charm and surely is "newer" and better than RSJS2 IMHO
However, thanks man!

very good firmware.... just upgdare, i find it very smooth 1248 on quadrant no lagfix.
how to root? i can use z4root or oneclicketcetc (i don't remember the name)

Built date. XWJS5 has a newer build date. I means that RSJS2 was built much earlier than XWJS5 but the latter was released first.

It's not a good idea to mess with bootloaders, especially boot.bin
If boot.bin is corrupter/flash fails you have a completely bricked phone, not even a jig will save it.
sbl.bin is less risky, since if you have an intact primary bootloader (boot.bin) you can jig your way out. I think you should remove boot.bin from your package, since only the sbl.bin from JV1 is needed for to work anyway

... moreover mangling with a different GSM_NATION_CODE (XW vs. RS)
If you actually want flash with PIT (512) and Re-partition, it would much better to build a 4-file CODE.tar only (ok for your empty dbdata.rfs), without boot & sbl binaries.

[DEV] UK Stock System Dump - Build ITL41D

Going to preface this with the fact that I'm relatively new to the dev scene. I'm still learning, but we all learn by doing right?
This dump is taken from my rooted UK retail O2 Galaxy Nexus. Rooted using adb method (not superboot method) - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1352004
Not entirely positive these are done perfectly (especially the .zip) but I think that may creatable from my dd image anyways. I'd appreciate someone with dev experience looking over these and okaying them, and maybe regular users staying away from trying to do anything with these until someone more experienced says they're alright?
I just figured that seeing I uploaded these for 2 people I may as well make them publically available for all.
I'm also including the steps I took inside code tags for anyone to point out any mistakes I may have made.

Zip file as originally requested by Revolution
I followed http://www.robmcghee.com/android/creating-an-android-update-zip-package/ - Thinking back I realise I probably didn't need to sign it, whoops

[FIX]wifi jam problems of cm10 and cm10.1 build 0626

I used 0626 build and with this new firmware and problem is gone.
You could try the new firmware:

download these files
wl127x-fw-4-mr.bin
wl127x-fw-4-plt.bin
wl127x-fw-4-sr.bin
And put it to /system/etc/firmware/ti-connectivity, replace old one, fix the properties.
Go to /system/bin/, rename wifical.sh_disabled to wifical.sh.
Reboot your defy.

I will test this in a while. Did you try this while being far away from your router?

In case anyone does in fact see this, this actually does work, so it does seem to have been a firmware problem after all. I tested with the farthest router I have, like I usually do, and the jamming is gone. Tested with the latest CM10.1 build by following the instructions @sunnyqeen gave in the OP, so I'm pretty sure it would work in any build that uses the new wifi drivers.
In case it helps anyone else, I'm attaching the files also.
@Quarx: Maybe, if these files prove to not cause any other problems, you could merge these with your builds.
Edit: Tested with 3 more builds last night, works with all of them. Don't see why it wouldn't have, but it's nice to confirm things.

You could have done a nandroid instead of creating a new folder. Don't change permissions of the folder. Make sure in your file manager you enable root priviledges.

linux-firmware: ti-connectivity: update wl12xx firmwares
The latest wl12xx driver version now requires a new firmware type with
a different ABI. This patch adds the corresponding 6 firmware
binaries. Three for wl127x and three for wl128x. Each set contains
one firmware for single-role, one firmware for multi-role and one
firmware for production testing and calibration.

I cloned the current repo for all common linux firmwares and found the size of the ti-wl127x different from the ones posted here.
Code:
git clone git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/firmware/linux-firmware.git
-rw-r--r--+ 1 jarod jarod 260852 Jun 29 22:22 wl127x-fw-4-mr.bin
-rw-r--r--+ 1 jarod jarod 261892 Jun 29 22:22 wl127x-fw-4-plt.bin
-rw-r--r--+ 1 jarod jarod 276684 Jun 29 22:22 wl127x-fw-4-sr.bin
Which ones should be used?
I have not tried the files yet, but may find time today.
The git log for the files reads as follows:

Well, it seems that you got the files from the Linux kernel repo. The files mentioned in this thread were taken from the OpenTI project, while I have no idea where Quarx got the files that were in the ROM originally.

Looking for info on those files lead me to this page: http://wireless.kernel.org/en/users/Drivers/wl127x-fw . Interesting info for the driver itself, also they have patches for various kernels for the driver to operate properly.

I did a quick test with bot sets of firmware. The one from the linux kernel repo did not work. Although my WLAN was listed, my Defy could not connect.
The firmware set posted here worked flawlessly. While my phone was connected to the AP, I could still copy files from the laptop to the server with around 5.5MB/sec.
Thanks a lot sunnyqeen.

I used 0626 build and with this new firmware and problem is gone.
You could try the new firmware:
https://github.com/TI-OpenLink/ti-utils/tree/ol_R5.SP5.01/hw/firmware
download these files
wl127x-fw-4-mr.bin
wl127x-fw-4-plt.bin
wl127x-fw-4-sr.bin
And put it to /system/etc/firmware/ti-connectivity, replace old one, fix the properties.
Go to /system/bin/, rename wifical.sh_disabled to wifical.sh.
Reboot your defy.

You could have done a nandroid instead of creating a new folder. Don't change permissions of the folder. Make sure in your file manager you enable root priviledges.

A whole nandroid for three files? A waste of time in my opinion. What I did was just rename the three original files to *.old and then copy the new ones, and fix permissions and ownership.

I tried to copy to files to /system/etc/firmware/ti-connectivity using File Manager. My File Manager is rooted and I have change the permission of directory /system/etc/firmware/ti-connectivity to "777". The files are still denied being copied into the directory. Can anyone assist on this?
Actually I rename directory "ti-connectivity" to "ti-connectivity.backup" and created a new directory "ti-connectivity" with a+rwx permission.

If I were you I'd change the permissions so that they are exactly the same as the original folder, e.g.: 0755. Files should have a permission of 0644. Both owner/group for folder/files should be root.
If you can create a new folder and not copy the files, I'd say use a different file manager. I use Root Explorer and never have any issues whatsoever.

Hi
I can not find the folder ti-connectivity. I use slim bean CM10. Is there any other folder i could place these files?
Thanks

I need to ask. What is this "wifi jam issue"? It's the problem where you connect and after a few seconds/minutes, it disconnects every device that was connected to the router, so you have to reboot manually the router so it can work again?
