do u have any ways to back up my data from a locked 950? i 'm afraid that if i clear the data, i may not download apps from the store...downloading apps from Microsoft store seems unaviliable for me. there are always some strange problems when i try. Thank you for your advice!

Ok. No the way I would do it would be backup in wpinternals but u need unblocked bootloader. Maybe someone with more knowledge can answer. 👍

Same here, everything seemed to work well. iutool worked, phone rebooted etc. but when I open vcREG I still get the error message and the app just gets closed when hitting the "Step 2" button

I have a Lumia 950 and installed vcREG with the Phone poral. I also tried to start from beginning but the just get iutool error 0x80188302 which means the data is already on the device I assume.

Anyone could help?

SIMPLIFIED INTEROP UNLOCK FOR 950
not at all this complicated. forum regards 950 as non compatible with interop but... i realize lumia 950 has lost popularity. i recently acquired two ... and tried a couple days to unlock via these methods with no success. errors and things.
HERE IS THE BEST METHOD: update phone software via settings i am sure all understand access to settings acheived through selecting unlock via recovery key then LONG PRESS abc or caps key which was it.. for keyboard settings PRESS GEAR to enter settings. ENABLE DEVELOPER MODE search for developers in setting switch on developer mode enable pairing via wifi diagnostics enable and other option belower developer selection.
CLICK LEARN MORE# in developer window and edge opens up.
TYPE 127.0.0.1 in url and go
Have already transferred INTEROP to phone, didnt need dependencies
GO TO APPS select install appx , find INTEROP ( THIS DEVICE) click install
NOW AT TOP of page you will see installed apps menu, scroll to interop and click it, once interop is in this field CLICK RUN or START or whatever

ALMOSt done ... in interop go to applications, don't go to interop unlock or none of that disregard all other instructions
In applications find SETUP (NEUTRAL) run that
when prompted for windows account Skip, Warning you are choosing no to use windows reset lock SELECT OK.
Reboot phone .... it may auto reboot after setup

DONE! Unlocked LUMIA and added my microsoft account in settings afterwards!

see my new thread on disregarding all the complicated steps to unlock and part about interop not working to unlock a 950. It does, but there is a different method and much easier

@ The-Z
Hi,
is the Letter d right? C:\Data\Users\Public\Documents\newndtk----> d <------svc.dll

---------- Post added at 05:41 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:56 PM ----------



Hi,

is there a spelling mistake in "newndtkdsvc.dll" ?
Shouldn´t it be "newndtksvc.dll" without the second "d"?

Glück Auf!
you are right.it must be without add the "d"

    vcREG is a registry editor for lumia windows phones that has SYSTEM level access to the registry. the tool also has the ability to unlock all app capabilities for third party apps(interop unlock), and give SYSTEM level access to most of the filesystem through MTP.

    new in version 1.7: thanks to @gus33000 for pointing out some registry values set for the interop unlock that may cause versions of rs1+ to break compatibility with WP8 apps. this has been fixed. For interop unlock, i suggest you use @gus33000 Interop Tools as his tool is more likely to have better support for changes in the future, as i am too bogged down with other projects.

    thanks to @Wack0Distractor for sharing the idea and the acer service that makes this unlock for the X50 series phones possible. also thanks to @ngame for providing the test devices and the many hours of debugging, and @djamol for the main reason any of these unlocks are possible.


    Instructions for X50 series phones like the 550,950/XL


    ndtk_acer_services.zip uploaded below contains acer.service.acersystemservice.spkg, NdtkSvc.dll, and newndtksvc.dll.

    1.Go to settings and turn on developer mode.

    2a. For APPX version, download vcregUWP_1.7+dependencies.zip,unzip, install dependencies, then install the vcreg appx

    2b. For XAP version, Sideload vcREG_1_7.xap using

    WP8 xap deployer
    C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\Windows Phone\v8.0\Tools\XAP Deployment\Xapdeploy.exe

    or

    WP Power Tools
    https://wptools.codeplex.com/

    3.Go to the app bar, then choose x50 series unlock. You will receive an error about the acer service not running. That's ok for now. Click step 1 and it will tell you to install the acer system service and copy some files. To install the acer system service, use iutool [rs and newer builds,this version is essential,old versions will probably not work] (can be found here. thanks @Wack0Distractor ).
    run this command as administrator
    iutool -v -p "path to the file acer.service.acersystemservice.spkg"

    if you receive error 0x80070490, disconnect your phone from usb, go to control panel on your pc, devices and printers, find your windows phone and remove device. reconnect the usb to your phone,and after it reinstalls the drivers automatically, run iutool command above again.

    if you receive error 0x8024a110, your phone should reboot to the gears UI in a minute. if not, run the command again. if it still doesnt auto reboot, manually reboot your phone. It should reboot into the gears UI, then back into the OS. if it still fails and doest show gears, give you phone a rest for 5-10 minutes and retry(usually needed after a new rom flash).

    4.When you're back in the phone OS, copy newndtksvc.dll and ndtksvc.dll to your documents folder on your phone through USB

    5.Go to the app bar, then choose x50 series unlock. You should no longer receive the error about the acer service. Now click step 2 and follow the rest of the instructions from the app.

    6.If you've taken the silent extras/advanced+info update, or updated that app manually, be sure to choose the option "Restore NDTK 950/XL" in the "x50 series unlock" page and reboot to regain access to the elevated features. It basically means if it suddenly stops working, apply this setting.




    Instructions for older devices


    1.Go to settings and turn on developer mode.

    2a. For APPX version, download vcregUWP_1.7+dependencies.zip,unzip, install dependencies, then install the vcreg appx

    2b. For XAP version, Sideload vcREG_1_7.xap using

    WP8 xap deployer
    C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\Windows Phone\v8.0\Tools\XAP Deployment\Xapdeploy.exe

    or

    WP Power Tools
    https://wptools.codeplex.com/

    3.Go to the app bar, then choose classic unlock

    3.If you've taken the silent extras+info update, or updated that app manually, be sure to choose the option "Restore NDTK" in the "classic unlock" page and reboot to regain access to the elevated features. It basically means if it suddenly stops working, apply this setting.

    Sorry for my bad English

    Guys Do not TRY Full FILESYSTEM ACCESS ON X50 Series .

    If you want to Change your X50/XL device font please try this app :

    OK.

    If you get 0x8024a110, you're probably on 14393 / anniversary update / Redstone1/whatever.

    If so, you NEED to use iutool from the 14393 WDK. No ifs, no buts. Use that or you WILL get that error.

    Here's a download of just the WP-tools (iutool, getdulogs, ffu creation etc etc) direct from MS: https://download.microsoft.com/down...5524A95/wdk/Installers/WP_CPTT_NT-x86-fre.msi

    Mirrored it here just in case.

    What can I do to fix error 0x80004005 when using IUtool in CMD prompt...

    make ure you are running CMD as Administrator and double check this value :
    HKLM\System\Platform\DeviceTargetingInfo
    PhoneManufacturer
    it should be ACERINC

    heres a little surprise since people have trouble with xap deployment on w10m. I did a quick port to UWP and appx. please report any bugs before I add it to OP.
