Maximum advantage of E680i(Flashing, Apps & Troubleshoot

[akhaliq]

The best E680i in my view can be a phone with
AAP(latest UNBRANDED firmware) + Unicode CG33 for AAP(by threesearch, I Recommend this) + CG35 by Chiennk + CG36 by threesearch

Have the following scripts/programs:
1. Linloader
2. NEO-Installer
3. mpkg (its done by CG36. however i prefer neo packages)
4. startup (Scripts to run as soon as you start your phone. Done with CG33)
5. gaintable (Makes the volume louder. Done with CG33)
6. acmattach or USBMode application(Ability to telnet to E680i)
7. qonsole or eKonsole (e680i linux console. i prefer eKonsole)
8. Eplayer 1.5(Plays AVI files)
9. screenshot (Screenshot after 10s you click it, allowing you to surf through till the palce you want to shoot)
10. samba (Browse the shared directories of your PC on your phone - AK)
11. ezx_editor and Editor_e (editors to edit text files. i prefer editor_e)
12. OPIE(this is still under developement, keep in mind while trying)
13. Themes Manager
14. gaming consoles like VBA/SNES/Vnes ... etc... with lot of java and console games
15. Winamp with Changable Background
16. Some additional NEO scripts (these include Restart, Bass_Boost, LED, etc...)
17. eClock (A very good Clock/Stopwatch app)
18. Quake and Doom
19. MP3Player(with Equilizer) and OZXPlayer(port of OPIE Player).
20. Use the phone as WebCam (read thread in detail, it has howto as well)

Below is my guide to get what is said above. Read it through or use following links to quick switch
Section 1(Backup/Restore of Data and Flashing through PST)
Section 2(Updating CG35)
Section 3(Linloader, Telnet, Flashkit, Updating CG33/CG36 using flashkit)

Possible Backup/Restore of Data:
Most important thing to me, before reflashing my phone was, taking a backup of my very essential data(SMS, PhoneBook, Calendar). i searched through the forum and found this post. Please read through the mentioned post and follow it. i did the same.
To tell you in short, here is what i did
1. Telnet to phone(if you dont know how, then read through Section 3 below to get some idea) and login as root.
2. use these commands in sequence
• mkdir /mmc/mmca1/sysdb
• cp -p /ezxlocal/sysDatabase/* /mmc/mmca1/sysdb/
3. after you are done with every thing(resetting or reflashing) then again use telnet or qonsole to use this command
• cp -p /mmc/mmca1/sysdb/* /ezxlocal/sysDatabase/
4. Restart Phone(to be safe)

it is mentioned in post but i did not use any MPT or any thing else and i still was able to backup/restore these items successfully.
1. PhoneBook(with complete settings of assigned ringtones and images).
2. SMS (All Folders)
3. Calendar
4. Stored FM Channels list


Flashing to latest firmware:
The latest unbranded firmware is AAP version of C5 firmware. You can get the firmware here and proceed with instructions below.
1. Download and install PST 7.2.3(may work with previous versions but I have not tested).
2. Patch PST
3. Check settings of USB mode in e680i setting. Set it to USB Modem.
4. Plugin your phone through USB cabel.
5. Run MultiFlashFlex from PST folder.
6. It may ask for several drivers after installing PST and connecting phone. Always use manual location pointing towards PST directory.
7. Make sure that
• Your phone appears in connected device list
• Your e680i has Full (recommended) or at least 60% battery. Its better to do a recharge for 1 or 2 hours (while downloading firmware and PST etc…) and then start for flashing.
8. Select downloaded and then unzipped shx file as firmware in top field by browsing to file location.
9. Start reflashing your phone.
10. When it says “Erasing Memory”, you can replace any desired CG33 if you want. I recommend the Unicode Modded CG33 by ThreeSearch.
11. It will continue the process and finally it will get finished.
12. Unplug USB cable. Remove Battery. Insert battery. Start Phone…

Note: Thanks to yantz, I followed his guide available here for my help. All credit goes to him if this guide works for you.

Thanks Chiennk.

Installing Unicode CG33 by ThreeSearch (this will also tell you how to use telnet and flashkit):

Update:
For our current firmware I Recommend Unicode CG33 by three search. Details by Chiennk can be found here.


I assume here that our phone does nto have modded rootfs(CG33) yet for any of these possible reasons.
1. We forgot to replace cg33.
2. We were not sure if that was right time for that
3. We really did not know about rootfs by then
4. We were afraid of that worthless error message that appears at the end of flash
5. Or most importantly something bad happened and we had to reflash with original firmware without any modification of CG33 because we did not want to take risk anymore.

Cyph did an excellent job on flashkit to provide us the best tool for modification of a very trivial area of firmware. Original instructions of cyph on usage of flashkit can be found in the Readme document of flashkit download or on the thread of previous link.

Connect your phone as usb mass storage device to computer and copy flashkit folder into it.
Copy cg33.smg(i shortened the name) into flashkit folder.
Unplug usb cabel, go to setup on e680i and select modem as usb mode for next time.

If we do not have Linloader installed yet, then use the manual installation package of linloader from e680i_essentials.zip and follow the enclosed instructions to install it.

After that, All we need is

USBLan:

Find the usblan driver installation for windows in e680i_essentials.zip
Click the installer to install drivers
I do not know about any other version but this version does not work on XP without modification.
Find the modified .inf file in the usblanpatch.zip
Replace the original file on installed location with this patched one
You are done.

Acmattach.lin:

Find in e680i_essentials.zip
Place anywhere (preferably on root of SD Card)
Connect USB Cabel(be sure that you have shanged usb mode to use device as modem)
Click + hold on the file, popup menu will appear
Select “Open with”
Select “App Name” with a green arrow icon. This is linloader
Select “Always use this…” to make it sure that in future any *.lin file opens with linloader.
U’ll get a new device found prompt on XP
Select location for driver and point it to installation directory of usblan
Wait… your device is installed. Click finish

Test the telnet.

Now we have usblan connected. Press “Win + R”, and type cmd in run dialog.
In XP command prompt, type “telnet 169.254.142.2” without quotes and press enter
Type root on telnet login prompt, press enter
You are on root of your phone.
Our test is ok, type exit and press enter
Close command prompt
Unplug the usb cabel.

Below are original instructions by Cyph. My “required modifications” are written as bold.
**** Instructions by Cyph ****

1. Run rwflash.lin. This will load rwflash.o
2. Leave the phone alone and wait. When the screen blanks out wait 30secs longer, there's a good chance the phone entered low power mode.
3. Telnet to the phone (by connecting usb cabel --> clicking acmattach.lin --> open command prompt --> telnet to 169.154.142.2 --> login as root)
4. Type cat /proc/rwflash_status and press enter. If it shows "unlocked", your flash is writable!! If not, unplug phone and go to step 2
5. continue command below in sequence
6. cd /mmc/mmca1/flashkit
7. ./start.sh
8. The script will start killing the phone's apps and mount the miniroot. After which, your telnet connection will be terminated.
9. Telnet back to the phone at port 10000 using 169.254.142.2 10000 and login as root. You are now in the miniroot. All phone applications should be killed by now (Except for mmcsdapp, for some reason, it is stuck in an uninterruptible sleep. This means we can't unmount the original root. Well, too bad.)
10. cat /proc/mtd to see what partitions you have. You should be able to flash the "R/W" partitions:
mtd4: 000e0000 00020000 "R/W Kernel"
mtd5: 018e0000 00020000 "R/W RootFS"
mtd6: 00020000 00020000 "R/W Setup"
mtd7: 00020000 00020000 "R/W Logo"
11. CD to the directory where we have placed our rootfs (in this case we placed it at /mmc/mmca1/flashkit) and then give following command:
flashcp -v cg33.smg /dev/mtd5
12. sync
13. Pull out battery. Reboot.
14. Don’t worry if flashcp gives an error at end. It does. But your work is done.

ThreeSearch did a great job by providing us Unicode modded CG33. this is CG33 mod of firmware that contains a lot of helpful utilities (nano, bash2, dircolors) to really enhance the usage of qonsole or telnet(u can see many differences on colorful command prompt now). This CG33 also contains editable gaintable, startup folder, auto acmattach, auto backup of native db and supports Unicode to support maximum possible languages. A very detailed thread is available here if you want to explore about this CG33.

Installing CG36.:
CG36 is included with CG33 of Chiennk. i recommend using this.
Installation: is very easy just like CG33. use notes by chiennk included in package for details.


If you followed this section
1. you know how to use telnet
2. you know how to use flashkit
3. you know how to update some sections of firmware without reflashing

Section 4:

[hr]

Most important apps to have(there can be many, but these are what I recommend):


All these files are available on different places. you dont need my compiled collection if you already have these files. i just gathered them in one zip file.

Please download and unzip e680i_essentials.zip and just have a look on what it has. You must find
1. Neo Installer
2. LinLoader Neo Packaged
3. bins
4. GainTable
5. eplayer_b7
6. Qonsole
7. Screenshot
8. samba
9. Midnight Commander
10. usblan
11. usblanpatch(notes included in directory, needed for working driver on xp)
12. startup.lin (for those who do love to C a new theme on each boot)
13. acmattach.lin (for those who do not have rootfs or even after having it, they don’t want to get their phone in usblan automatically(as I don’t want), notes included with file)
14. links.txt (this file has all links that I find useful, mostly are from same forum)
15. same guide in doc format but without any inline links (to be used only as a offline reference)

NeoInstaller:

click on mtf
wait for success message.
Click OK.

Or
If you don’t have rootfs/startup folder, then follow the notes available in alternative package.

Startup.lin:

Place in your startup directory and u’ll get a new theme each time u boot.
What I do is, I use Alien and I’Robot themes. And I like them both switching at startup.
If it does not work, I am not sure what to do coz it works for me.

LinLoader:

Click on the neo based jar file for linloader
It asks you about install, do not worry about untrusted message.
Install it
U’ll have it in applications but don’t run it. It just loads the scripts.
Click+hold on any lin file and select “open with”
Select linloader from apps and select check box to always use the same
Keep in mind that you don’t need to install it if u have sandman’s CG35.

Bins:

These are binaries useful with rootfs(things I was talking about nano…etc.)
Click on mtf and wait for success message.

GainTable:

Just click the mtf to install
Restarting the phone is a good idea.

Qonsole:

This is a very usefull application. This saves u from hustle of telnet all the time. You can do every thing from here instead of telnet.
Click on neo packaged jar and install.
Run Qonsole from applications
Type login root and press enter
Now you are logged in as root just like you did from telnet
If u ever want to edit some text based file like gaintable or some lin script,
just type nano <filename> and you file will be opened in nano for editing.
Yes, this is that easy.

USBLAN and acmattach:

Described in above section. However you can let you phone auto connect on usblan if you put acmattach in startup folder

Samba:

Follow notes in directry to put files on appropriate places
Connect phone as usblan
Open Qonsole or telnet to phone
Type smbmount.sh and your folder will be shared from windows.
Please read the detailed notes provided in directory.

Midnight Commander:

Follow notes available in directory.
Just be sure that it is not an exact Midnight commander.
You can run it through telnet but u will nto be able to use it
You can use it better on qonsole but display will not be clear due to mini screen.

Clocker(not in my collection, download from here):

Follow notes available with download.
It is a great app but there is a chance that it may clightly effect the battery life.
Detailed description available on download page.

ezxlocal Editor(a wonder full app by Intoxicated, Details are here):

Its an easy to use app.
shows list of config and other setup files from ezxlocal.
Double click a file, edit it, save it. Done.

Note: it is an mpkg version you need mpkg working to install it.
This is not part of my collection download, please go to mentioned page.

Section 5(Extras, some more kool things):

[hr]

Themes
i love alien and I'Robot and using none else. however please browse download section to get a lot of themes but be careful with what you select because phone has a limited memory.

however it is still under developement, if you want to know about what is going on please click here.

Games & Roms, java games, gaming consoles and more.
Finally filling up this area, Thanx to admin for suggesting inclusions...
1. Some additional NEO scripts (these include Restart, Bass_Boost, Theme Manager, LED, etc...) Thanx 2 Sandman, for the usual good job to create neo packs.
2. XSnes9x v.2.1 (It works really great for snes ROMS, turn your e680i into a real gaming console ).
3. Play games coming with ABP without any limitation, Thanks to BlackSea for sharing the joy.

Section 6(Troubleshooting)
[hr]

Q. I asked a question but a person didnt help me at all and just said me to use forum search. how to use forum search?
A. on the top of page, there are links for logout and forum faq. search link is on the same line. please visit search page and explore all features provided.

Q. What is a firmware and why i need to update it?
A. Firmaware is software that controls your phone. updation is needed if you have made a big mistake and now you cannot boot your phone and you dont want to spend money in market for correction. or another common case is that only if you feel that you need a feature which is not provided in pre-installed firmware and an update has it.

Q. How can i know the firmware version on my phone?
A. go to Dial Pad and use this number WWW008W. W is representing Wait. to insert wait, go to menu, select insert, and select wait for insertion.

Q. What is CG33 and why do i need to replace it?
A. CG33 is the major part of firmware containing al of rootfs. which means it has all apps and original linux file structure. A modded CG 33 can do many things like symlinking gaintable to a file in a writable location for editing or installing a new app as default available or updating an existing app in a firmware.

Q. What is CG35 and why do i need to update it?
A. CG35 is the section containing localizations, default tones, default images, default themes of phone. in case of a branded firmware, modded CG35 can help with unbranding. another major usage of CG35 is provision of MultiGUI keyborad layouts and custom language supports.

Q. What is CG36 and why do i need to update it?
A. CG36 contains the config files in ezxlocal and modded CG36 can provide many hidden features like adding silent mode to cam, or availability of in-built mpkg installer, longer playlist of real player, sip calls and much more.

Q. What is CG37 and why do i need to update it?
A. CG37 contains the original boot logo of motorola, it retains a specific format. if u need to replace that default image, u need to use a modded CG37. my guide doesnt include any detail about it but search this forum for a detailed post.

Q. I replaced CG33, CG35 and CG36 while reflashing with PST. but now my phone does not boot.
A. never replace modded CG35 while flashing. CG35 shall be upgraded afterwards as described in section 2.

Q. When i connect my phone with pc, it automatically shifts to USBLAN mode even if i have selected mass storage
A. This is due to auto telnet support in modded CG33. Rename acmattach.txt to acmattach.lin in root directory of Files. it will nto only disable the auto telnet but also will allow you to control telnet mode. now in modem mode, telnet will be enabled only when you tap acmattach.lin

Q. I have renamed/moved acmattach but now my phone freezes when i try to connect to PC as mass storage.
A. this is due to themes used from diska or mmc. Switch to a standard theme before connecting to PC.

Q. How can i access folders of phone in windows explorer when i m in telnet mode?
A. in Run dialog type "\\169.254.142.2\system" and press enter. you may need to try more than once but it worx.

Q. i installed a theme. but now i cannot boot my phone. it hangs on starting screen. how can i solve this problem.
A. there is no solution to this problem. you mistakenly used all of ezxlocal storage or installed a corrupt theme. only slution is complete reflash using PST. please read sticky post in skins forum for more details.

Q. how can i play games unlimited for AAP
A. i dont know yet. i'll update when i have a tested resolution

Q. can i use CGs of ABP with AAP?
A. may be you can. but you may have inconsistent behavior.

Q. When i type cp /mmc/mmca1/cg35.smg /dev/tffsa , i get a message "cp: cannot stat '/mmc/mmca1/cg35.smg' : no such file of directory. what is wrong?how shall i proceed?
A. you are definitely making a mistake in typing the filename/path. verify the file path using anyway that suits you.
try this command
ls /mmc/mmca1/*.smg
this will tell u exact file name/paths of all smg files if there is any. be sure that names are case sensitive. means CG35.smg is different from cg35.smg when it comes to linux commands.

Q. I do not flash my phone. Can I use the ePlayer and qonsole if I do not flash my phone? For your information both file (ePlayer and qonsole) I got from akhalid e80i_essential.
A. you can use both. things u need is...
1. your linloader should be working
2. neo should be installed
and if CG33 is not modded, then you need to run startup.lin created by neo installation each time when u rebooth the phone. after that any neo app like qonsole or eplayer shall work.
to know more abt eplayer, search for eplayer in forums and then read through threads. you'll know better. just to give u a short note, it plays avi,wmv(not new codecs), mpg, mp3, ogg, .... and a lot more...

Q. Before I flash my E680i I backup the .diska and ezxlocal folder by copying that folders using windows explorer not telnet, and locate it in my local computer. Can I restore it back after flashing by copying from my local computer ? before i flashed my phone i backup diska and ezxlocal folder through usblan, copied it from windows explorer then i flashed the phone
then i read ur guidance and try to restore files in sysDatabase folder only, restart the phone and when i tap contacts menu there's nothing and cannot be closed.
A. After restoring files of sysdatabase back to original location, please verify that owner/group of file is ezx not root. if it is root(i expect this in mentioned case) then you need to use chown and chgrp commands to restore the owner and group of files to ezx.

Q. i did tap on bins.mtf and the success message was appeared, where did it extract the contains ? and how can we use the functions like nano ?
A. contents r extracted to bin and lib directory in diska/.system.
you can use nano thorugh qonsole/telnet. it is there in /diska/.system/bin.
if u r using 1.3 version of 3Search, then this is already added to PATH of root profile. else u need to run nano with ref to the directory where it is installed.

Q. Where do i need to look for "erasing flash memory" thing? on computer screen or on mobile phone screen?
A. You need to look at computer screen of MultiFlashFlex(PST).

Q. I have a question that is not included here. can you please help me and include that here as well?
A. PM me. if i know the answer, i'll include here. if not then i'll try to find the answer and will include here once answer is found.

If you still have a problem. please do the following:
1. Please read alla bove posts carefully.
2. Please read all of the posts in this topic. many users have already asked many questions. you may find an answer there.

hmm, in cyph guide to flashkit, it mentions in that after ./start.sh we need to telnet again to port 10000... hmmm shouldn't the command be
telnet 169.254.142.2 10000 (without the ':')?

hmmm, so where can i download the latest 'collection' of files?

thanx for correction regarding port 10000, it was a typo. i have updated the section.

Backup/Restore of essential data is added to Section 1 prior to start of reflashing. i hope it helps too.

Hi there,

I am having trouble using the neo linloader that came with your essential tools. linloader install fine but when i try to open acmattach.lin or any lin files, I would get the following message

"The software you are trying to run ia not a java MIDlet. It will only run on specific phone models....................." I use the "open with" command as suggested

I have a e680i flash to the latest C5ABP with threeseach cg33 and intoxciate cg36. I am trying to flash sander CG35 next.

However, without linloader I cannot telnet my phone.
any help will make my day

thank you
