[GUIDE] Unlock lumia x2x and enable Mass Storage mode

[dxdy]

Can i relock bootloader before or after and remove the Engineering SBL3 in upgrade to Windows 10 Mobile? I have a Nokia Lumia 925 or in case of not, Can only remove the Engineering SBL3, use Windows 10 Mobile and leave the bootloader unlocked?

no need to remove... you can use W10M with bootloader unlocked. you need it for glance FIX and others hacks...

only is important to stay on AU builds, not upgrade to CU because bugs...

The problem is it cannot be scanned by software to recover deleted picture, because it is seen as a shortcut.
It is accessible by manual mod that link, but if you try to recover with software ... the software dont know to scan that shortcut and of course subfolder of that folder
This is what i need to access "*:\Data\USERS\Public\Pictures\Camera Roll"

I attached picture for details

here in ZAR (Zero Assumption Recovery app)... just select Qualcomm MMC Storage to scan... no need to enter direct path

H:\Data\Users\Public\Pictures\Camera Roll
in file explorer on PC, this is full path... shortcut not problem for me to access this folder...

additional: picture from previous post is is for Image (free) scanning.. with Data Recovery for Windows and Linux option, can select only MainOS partition for scan

but cant guarantee this method works because never used on phone

I have a lumia 520 and I flashed the engineering SBL3 and unlocked Mass Storage Mode using WP Internals. I am wondering how do I get into flash mode to flash a custom rom? If I hold the camera button while powering on I get the Mass Storage Mode and if I hold volume up and power I get a screen with a lightening bolt and gear icon and if hold volume down and power I get a screen with the Nokia logo. The device is not recognized in either mode - it has the vendor id 0000 product id 0002 in Windows Device Manager and WP internal will not flash to it.

Pull out battery, then insert. Try this, im just saying.

 

[rejinarudo]

Yes, that worked.
I plugged in usb, waited a moment, then inserted the battery.
I used WP Internals to interrupt the boot process and then I was able to install WinUSB drivers using zadig and relock the bootloader and flash a rom.

Hey please can someone tell me how to mount my lumia 1020 whole internal storage as vhd in my PC to recover my deleted data

 

[Om_ya]

Can anyone explain the purpose of this process? What are we able to achieve after unlocking the device?

So followed this guide. Unlocked the phone. Then tried to enable root access and it's stuck ln 'Enable Root Access on EFIESP'.

Phone: Lumia 625. Loader and SBL 3 are there
