Useful - disable check ID Platform Image FFU

In a non-retail image, OEMs can disable the device platform validation for flashing by adding the DISABLE_FFU_PLAT_ID_CHECK feature to the OEMInput file that is used to generate the image.

Example OEMInput:

... 
 <Features>
    <Microsoft>
      <Feature>DISABLE_FFU_PLAT_ID_CHECK</Feature>
    </Microsoft>
...
</Features>

Cmd expected result (when DISABLE_FFU_PLAT_ID_CHECK, etc. ):

Bootloader is locked, or more info and errors code table in MS

Example:

Error: Failed to flash with device error { 0x18, 0x0, 0x0, 0x2, 0xa, 0x5 }

"The first hexadecimal number is an event code that indicates the type of flashing failure.
The following table provides a description of the FFU tool flashing errors."

0x16

The platform ID specified in the image does not match the ID of the device to be flashed.

the error is the same as flashing with Nokia Care Suite
so how to bypass that check about ID ?
or how to modify the ffu file in such situation that ID be the same
don't you have ATT phone to try flashing it ?

@hawkeye29, this may be the tool that would possibly allow you to install an AT&T ROM back on your 920. Give it a shot.

I try it but didn't work . maybe I did something wrong I don't know .
but in my tries it didn't work
if Mass Storage works surely it will be very easy to enable *every* registry hacks
