Hey guys. For those of you who are having problems of no sound on your Lumia after trying to enable root access and have no SBL3 for your phone eg lumia 720, you're in luck.

Firstly a big thanks to @Heathcliff74 for WPinternals tool and @Riyad_ for list of changes to the registry.

Lets get started!!! :D

1. Flash your phone with the original ROM and there after unlock the bootloader(You don't need SBL3 :p).

2. Using WPinternals, dump EFIESP, MainOS and Data partitions.

3. Mount EFIESP and MainOS with OSFMount or similar software.

4. Go to enable root access in WPinternals and unlock ONLY the EFIESP partition.

5. Locate mounted MainOS and navigate to Windows\Packages\RegistryFiles. Here you will find SOFTWARE.reg. Copy it to you desktop.

6. Open 7-zip and double click on the SOFTWARE.reg file. Right click on the file named SOFTWARE inside it and select Edit.

7. Copy and paste the contents of the attachment below into the SOFTWARE file then save and exit. 7-zip will give a message, just click OK.

8. Delete the SOFTWARE.reg from your MainOS and copy the modded SOFTWARE.reg from your desktop to you mounted MainOS. Once you have done this, unmount EFIESP and MainOS drives.

9. Go back to WPinternals and now flash all 3 partitions.

10. Wait for phone to flash and reboot then go to "about" in settings and reset your phone and enjoy interop/cap unlocked phone.

are you adding tweak in this reg file? and adding your wallapers, sounds and etc for your mainOs?

this is basis for custom rom(backup rom, as huawei w1) with wpinternals(flashed).

Yes the SOFTWARE.reg file is being modified. I haven't added any wallpapers or sounds to my MainOS as yet.

Sorry but with This
"4. Go to enable root access in WPinternals and unlock ONLY the EFIESP partition."
You don't have root Access
Yes, you have to do this so you can flash the modded MainOS(which contains the changes for root access). Read WPinternals tool.
