Warranty

This topic is awesome!

I'm followed the indtructions and i got an interloop unlocked lumia 710.
But a I have a big problem...

Can someone tell me how to backup the Lumia 710 before flashing it with DD? Thx :)

You could use dd. You just gotta do the exact opposite of the flashing. Example: dd if=/dev/sdXY of=/path_to_backup_file/choose_a_name_for_your_image.img

Hi
I have a Lumia 710 type RM-809 software 11465 (black T-Mobile).
No matter the combination I use (vol up + power, vol up + dn + power etc), Windows detects the phone as a device (it appears as "Nokia Lumia 710" in my devices and printer list); I doesn't appear as 'Nokia DLOAD' or as 'USB Mass Storage Device'.
How can I fully unlock it?
Thanks

So I've used the firmware provided there:
well maybe someone with Lumia 710 dload try to flash. Actually, i already have lumia 800. i was thinking of flashing this firmware then try the steps to interop. by the way it is hard to download from the Russian website so i uploaded the file on mediafire after split it into two files. file 1: file 2:
and it seemed to have worked: when I pressed vol up + power, windows asked me to format etc.

then i downloaded the ROM at the beginning of the thread
then i ran the following command on dd for windows: dd if=./os-new.nb of=\\.\f:9
it showed error 0
now the phone won't turn on :-(
any ideas?

hey guys, i have a lumia 800 with the 2.3 hw revision and the 12070 sw revision, never flashed with nokia care suite though, if i press the vol up+power and than connect the usb cable to my pc running linux, it makes 1 vibration, stays a bit black, than boots windows like normally and the dmesg is as in this paste: http://pastebin.com/2Mpd1zcj as you willb e able to see, i tried it several times, holding vol up + pwr, and after the first vibrate connecting usb, connecting while it vibrates and than connecting it immediately after holding the button combo. But it doesnt say qualcomm or DLOAD, as you can see
I read this is only possible with hw revision 2.3 and sw revision 11141 . Is it possible to use Care suite to flash 11141 and than it will work? thanks in advance guys

The answer

hi. can someone tell me what is going on.
i run the command in ubuntu but i get os-new.nb does not exist.
i have put this file in every possible folder.
public foklder, hard disk removable disk. this why i gave up first time.:(

Iin the terminal:
Locate the xx.nb.
look the same on Windows CMD
Copy (in linux) the xx.nb a folder (for example the "media")
And now your xx.nb file is on the media folder...
Open terminal and now locate the nb file:
cd \ (if pushed enter you will be in the root directory)
cd media (if pushed enter you will be in the media directory and here is the nb file)
and now type: sudo dd if=./xx.nb of=/dev/sdc9 (In ubuntu sdc9)
It's the same code: sudo dd if=/media/xx.nb of=/dev/sdc9 (In ubuntu sdc9)

And thats all...

    Questions & Answers


    Q: I've a Lumia 800 or 710 can I Interop-Unlock it?
    A: The short answer is yes if you have a Lumia 710 - you must firstly downgrade your bootloader - and "maybe" for the Lumia 800, because only some of them can be Interop-Unlocked at the moment.

    Q: I've got a Lumia 710 how can I downgrade my bootloader to the Qualcomm one?
    A: You must flash this firmware with Nokia Care Suite (mirror splitted in two parts: Part1 Part2)

    Q: Cool how can I discover if I'm a lucky owner or not?
    A: For first go to "Settings -> About -> more info" and if your "Hardware revision number" ends with 2.4 you are probably screwed out.

    Q: I've got 2.4 hw rev how can I check eventually?
    A: You don't need to check if your hw rev is 2.4 and your Lumia came with firmware 11500 or higher you have the new nokia bootloader.

    Q: I've got 2.3 hw rev how can I check if I'm eligible?
    A: If you've got hw rev 2.3 but you have flashed your device with a firmware 11500 or higher - flashed mean with Nokia Care Suite because Zune doesn't update your bootloader - you have the new Nokia Bootloader; if you want eventually to check see below "check if my device is interop-unlockable".

    Q: So at the moment which can be interop-unlocked?
    A: As for now can be interop-unlocked hw rev 2.3 with firmware version 11141 or below.

    Q: I've got the NOKIA DLOAD can I put the Qualcomm bootloader?
    A: Yes but ONLY if you have a Lumia 710, on the 800 is not possible at the moment.

    Q: Can I get the Qualcomm bootloader by downgrading my Lumia ?
    A: No, you can't flash the Qualcomm bootloader with a backup, as explained here.

    Q: I have interop-unlocked my Lumia but now I can't access Windows Live services!
    A: You can find your solution here.

    Q: I've got the NOKIA DLOAD how can I flash my device?
    A: You can ONLY flash your device with Nokia Care Suite.

    Q: I've got the Qualcomm bootloader how can I flash my device?
    A: You can ONLY flash your device with Qualcomm QPST.

    The Story so far: Nokia Interop-Unlock plus bootloader and NAND access

    As many of you may have seen our beloved user biktor_gj found firstly that some Lumia 800 and 700 have Qualcomm unlocked bootloader that expose the entire nand of the device as removable media and permit to read write it. This discover lead to make custom rom as you can easily write raw data back to the NAND with dd linux - or any unix like variant - with the modifications for gaining Interop-Unlock.

    As for now we have a tested Lumia 800 Rom that lead us to a Interop-Unlocked Lumia 800, pay attention that the devices, as stated Heathcliff74 here, is not fully rooted and need more patching.

    Check if my device is Interop-Unlockable

    • Shut down your device
    • Hold pushed VOL + and POWER
    • Plug into your USB, you will hear a short vibration
    • If you are running Windows it will ask to format an USB drive, say no!

    if you are running Linux you will se something like this:

    Code:
    [  655.912077] usb 2-2: new high speed USB device number 9 using ehci_hcd
    [  661.797096] usb 2-2: USB disconnect, device number 9

    [  767.977264] sdb: p9 size 30632075 extends beyond EOD, enabling native capacity
    [  767.983196]  sdb: sdb1 sdb2 sdb3 sdb4 < sdb5 sdb6 sdb7 sdb8 sdb9 >

    [  767.988075] sd 2:0:0:0: [sdb] Attached SCSI removable disk

    then you can Interop-Unlock your Lumia with one of the following ROM:

    Lumia 800: Interop Unlock (no full unlock yet)
    ROM based on: RM819_059P453_1600.2487.8107.12070_002

    http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?tnadd4uuoxhatv3
    CAUTION: these images AREN'T TESTED. Use at your own risk.

    PLEASE DO A FULL BACKUP OF THE NAND BEFORE PLAYING AROUND

    if you want to flash this is the procedure on linux:

    dd if=./os-new.nb of=/dev/sdX9

    Where X is the disk detected by your linux distribution.

    After that, you'll need to hard reset the phone:
    • Hold Power button for 10 seconds to exit Qualcomm's disk mode, and press and hold POWER+VOLUMEDOWN+CAMERA until you feel the phone vibrate.
    • After that, RELEASE power button but KEEP HOLDING volume down + camera for five or more seconds.

    This will trigger the hard reset.

    If when you plug your device and you see NOKIA DLOAD for now your out of luck because your bootloader is locked and you can't flash the roms above.

    Completed the file uploads: http://www.mediafire.com/?kknt4lnc3tn7w

    • Dump_in_parts.part*.rar : Dump of the OS partition (IMGFS dump)
    • Dumpmap-imgfsobjects.zip: logs and stuff from OSBuilder
    • sd*.rar: compressed DD dumps of the rest of the filesystem
    • NOT INCLUDED:
    • Partition #5: contains product code and stuff from phone, 64kb
    • Partition #4: Extended partition container for partitions 5-9
    • Partition #9: Cannot post that enormous partition, 15Gb in size (but should be enough with the dumped os).

    LUMIA 800 FLASH FILE SYSTEM LAYOUT:

    Partition Begin End Blocks ID
    /dev/sdb1 * 1 1000 500 4d Initial Bootloader - SECBOOT

    /dev/sdb2 1001 4000 1500 46 Second stage loader? - OSBL, also looks like it has the download mode and seems to init LCD, enable USB etc.

    /dev/sdb3 4001 304000 150000 c W95 FAT32 (LBA) - Writable partition with EMMCBOOT, AMSS etc.
    EMMCBoot is responsible for loading Windows Kernel (nk.exe). I got a copy of Samsung Galaxy i9001's emmcboot.mbn, and putted it in there. It tries to start, but seems to crash (expected). But hey! it tries to boot it (it even vibrates for 1/10 of a second), so getting something else (did anyone say...android?)running on this phone should be easier than in lots of other phones... Does anyone have u-boot ports for Qualcomm 8255?

    /dev/sdb4 304001 31037579 15366789+ 5 Extended partition which holds the OS
    /dev/sdb5 304006 304133 64 ef EFI (FAT-12/16/32) - Linux detects it as an EFI partition, but it's just 64Kb size, and seems to have some markers, not sure yet what it is, but could be anything from IMEI and simlock to an actual efi partiton for WinCE...
    EDIT AGAIN: this partition contains phone serial number and product code, and possibly imei and simlock. For sure its not an efi partition

    /dev/sdb6 304134 310277 3072 58 3Mb size
    /dev/sdb7 393216 399359 3072 4a 3Mb size
    /dev/sdb8 399360 405503 3072 4b 3Mb size
    These three partitions have similar start and end data on their partitions, no idea what they are, since I haven't been able to see if it's even a file system. All the documentation I see seems to tell Windows Mobile uses exFAT for the filesystem, but can't seem to find its header anywhere on the flash... still looking. It could even be where WinMo stores application installers for first boot on the device (but could be perfectly wrong)

    All of them start with the following header (hex):
    7D 8D 27 82 D7 40 F8 90 53 22 82 43 6D EC 6F 69 49

    /dev/sdb9 524288 31156362 15316037+ 48
    This las partition is 15Gb size, and contains all the Operating System and all the data on the phone.

    Anyone know about how does Windows Phone manage filesystems on NAND? Some help would be really appreciated...

    The file system for the 15Gb partition has _wmstore header, still incompatible with some kitchens, but still looking...

    Here's part of the header:
    Code:
    _wmstore
    !zLH?k
    _wmpart_B
    _wmpart_S
    _wmpart_S
    _wmpart_N

    LK Bootloader for Lumia

    beldi setupped a git repo of LK Android bootloader for Lumia devices here

    Code:
    *** Compiling the LK Android bootloader ***
    ** Tested on Ubuntu 11.10 with Lumia 710 **
    
    1) Get the toolchain and install:
      wget https://sourcery.mentor.com/public/gnu_toolchain/arm-none-linux-gnueabi/arm-2009q1-203-arm-none-linux-gnueabi-i686-pc-linux-gnu.tar.bz2
      sudo tar xvf arm-2009q1-203-arm-none-linux-gnueabi-i686-pc-linux-gnu.tar.bz2 --directory /opt/
    
    2) Compile the bootloader:
      PATH=/opt/arm-2009q1/bin:$PATH TOOLCHAIN_PREFIX=arm-none-linux-gnueabi- PROJECT=msm7630_surf make EMMC_BOOT=1
    
    3) Get your Lumia into diagnostics mode (turn it on using VOL UP + VOL DOWN + POWER)
    
    4) BACKUP EVERY SINGLE FILE FROM THE 150MB PARTITION! (Just to be safe)
    
    5) Replace the image/emmcboot.mbn file with your freshly compiled LK bootloader
      cp <repo dir>/build-msm7630_surf/EMMCBOOT.MBN /media/<mount point>/image2/emmcboot.mbn
    
    6) Unmount the bootloader partition from your PC and pull the phone's battery
    
    7) Turn on, wait a few moments, and plug the phone to the PC
    
    8) Test the fastboot connection:
      fastboot devices
      fastboot getvar version

    for now is working only the fastboot protocol but nothing more, is in current alpha stage.

    For ANY NON TECHNICAL question please post here instead of posting into the dev thread.

    I have my lumia 710 with revision 2.1
    I had a locked bootloader, but I have unlocked it while flashing 12050 firmware with NCS. Really interesting

    ---------- Post added at 01:17 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:05 PM ----------

    http://narod.ru/disk/45935058001.2aaca38c9acf622332f4a81b5bf0e331/RM-803.rar.html

    the same files but uploaded to mediafire:
    file 1: http://www.mediafire.com/?79z739zzf5cuhxa
    file 2: http://www.mediafire.com/?6fed8oaz87j9ln9

    .not sure, but I think I've flashed my lumia 710 with this firmware and had unlocked my bootloader
    5
    Yes you are right, I had checked that too,
    but I'm a bit scary to brick my phone :D

    Ok, I tried it on mine. I have rewritten the whole partition with nokia_osbl.mbn extracted from RM803_12w07_prod_generic_updated_nokia_osbl.esco. It booted just fine and Nokia Care Suite flashing works again.

    Here are the exact steps I used to recover the Nokia DLOAD bootloader after unlock:
    1) Download _http_://nds2.fds-fire.nokia.com/p/d/fds_fire/1203/2211/7000248136/RM803_12w07_prod_generic_updated_nokia_osbl.esco
    2) Rename the file to RM803_12w07_prod_generic_updated_nokia_osbl.zip and open it. It should contain two files, one will be named nokia_osbl.mbn. Extract that one.
    3) Connect the Nokia 710 phone in the Qualcomm bootloader mode to the computer (ie. boot it with holding the volume up key) and wait till it shows as a disk.
    4) Open HxD as administrator and select Extras -> Open disk. Find the Removable disk that matches the connected Nokia device. Don't forget to uncheck the "read-only" mode! The partition with the boot loader should start at sector 1001, you can navigate to it using the toolbar at the top.
    5) Verify that it starts with the bytes 0B 00.
    6) Open nokia_osbl.mdn in HxD and copy the whole file over to the disk starting at the sector 1001. Save it.
    7) Unplug the device and reboot it. Now it should be flashable with NCS again.
    5
    So, I'm really glad to see, that my copy of files is working and lets people downgrade their bootrom to qualcomm mode and then flash interup-unlock. This small participation is really important for me.
    Big Russian thanx to everybody =)

    Also, I'm sorry for my English)

    what are the benefits of putting an linux kernel, can i still acess wp7 software, and could i flash android on it ?

    What would be the benefit of ripping your brains out and replacing them with brains of a horse? Would you still be able to talk? Or would you be able to win horse-track-races? Or would it just be a bloody mess? ;)
