I'll try it tomorrow after someone else tries it :) Sleep now.

You can check out the file (someone), it's definitely in the right format and is the original bootloader.
[Nokia Lumia 800] voluptuary:
Maybe then some like adiksw who already bricked thier phone by formatting thier bootloader in Windows would want to try since they have nothing to lose and everything to gain at this point?
[Nokia Lumia 800] cdbase:
i don't give a **** i think i will do this when i'll be back home

wish me luck :)
[Nokia Lumia 800] voluptuary:
Thanks for being brave :)
[Nokia Lumia 800] biktor_gj:
Whoah, I would really be careful with that.

Anyway, to the point. I now have a HW 2.3 and a 2.4 lumia :)

2.3 is unlocked (how I got all the backups)

2.4 is locked, and it was updated with OTA.

Now I can play with both, see what I can find. Before messing around blindly with bootloaders, maybe, it would be a good idea to have a LK bootloader placed over EMMCBOOT, and launch the test bootloader from there. Right now it just gets info and not much more, but a little bit of tricking and maybe it can boot something off of RAM...

Shame I have to work, won't have time to play until weekend :(

BTW, nobody is ignoring anyone ;)

QUESTION: Does anyone have an SIM UNLOCKED lumia? I want to test a theory regarding partition #5 ;)
[Nokia Lumia 800] ombadboy:
I do.. Came SIM Unlocked.. If it involved anything not too risky ill help you out..
[Nokia Lumia 800] biktor_gj:
I just need a copy of that partition to compare it with mine... How do you feel about linux?

But first it needs to have bootloader unlocked...

In linux it would be 'dd if=/dev/sd?5 of=./dump_partition_5' where ? is your phone's disk (sdb sdc sdd..), in Windows... you would need Winimage or something like that, or simply a hex editor (HxD will do and it's free). I can give you the exact offsets where you need to look :)

No hurry, just wanting to check if simlock is really there without messing it up too much ;)
[Nokia Lumia 800] _Madmatt:
I have SIM unlocked Lumia. You can contact me via PM if you like to tell me what I should do. Running Windows, no linux.
[Nokia Lumia 800] X3n0n:
SIM Free Lumia too, running macos X and familiar with terminal (tell me some command, I can execute them :D)

And I have access to the Qualcomm mode, pressing vol up + vol down, then, connecting through USB, very short viber and it's ok :D

Edit : Well, done, check your MPs :D
[Nokia Lumia 800] cdbase:
NCS doesn't even allow that kind of file replacement it checks if each file is correct so no luck . biktor_gj you got both devices so waiting for some news
[Nokia Lumia 800] biktor_gj:
Got it on my phone, thank you very much!
[Nokia Lumia 800] maatn:
This somehow doesnt work for me.

Im on HW V. 2.3 and got FW 1600.3015.8107.1207

I turn off my phone, plug it to USB on my MacBook and press Vol- and Vol+ and Power. I get a short vibra and then it vibrates long and boots into Windows Phone 7.
[Nokia Lumia 800] Jaxbot:
[ignore]
[Nokia Lumia 800] X3n0n:
Try to FIRST push vol up + vol down, and while pushing those 2 buttons, plug in USB cable, no need to push the Power button.

When you plug the USB cable, you will get short vibra and you can release the 2 buttons.

EDIT : Dammit Jaxbot, I wish you luck (seems like you fly to the moon to me :D)
[Nokia Lumia 800] Jaxbot:
Oh hey, it's not bricked. :D

Edit: Flashed the wrong files. Ignore this post.
[Nokia Lumia 800] cdbase:
jaxbot can you upload files from image and tell me if only .cert is needed

for this to work
[Nokia Lumia 800] speculumrotae:
Yujuuuuuuu.

Mine is 2.4 Dload mode, I hope this bring to all of us custom roms...
[Nokia Lumia 800] ombadboy:
Great news! Does it identify it as Qualcomm now? (what was it before you flashed btw?)
[Nokia Lumia 800] rescbr:
I have the same issues as Heathcliff74 on my own Lumia. Just long vibration and boot to Windows no matter what button you press. Might have something to do with the bootloader flashed at the factory/country variant. Friend's Lumia entered Nokia DLOAD.

My Lumia's information:

Firmware: 12070

It's worth noting that although the ROM Language is English (UK), this phone was given to some developers in Brazil before the official launch here, and its first boot was in Portuguese (BR). I don't know if this phone revision is being sold in retail in Brazil.

Both were updated through Zune only.

[ignore this post]
[Nokia Lumia 800] :
seems, osbl update first came in 1600.2483.8107.11501 firmware

under name : RM801_11w50_1_prod_generic_nokia_osbl.esco

after that, it was update again in 1600.2487.8107.12070 firnware

under name: RM801_12w07_prod_generic_nokia_osbl.esco

but that is NOT what you call "bootloader" here, instead it is second part, first is DBL ( device boot loader )

according to qualcomm rules, it should be protected by signature, which checked runtime by dbl.

however, i can't see any signature in dumps from biktor_gj.

if assume, that all lumia's are built on NOT SECURE msm8255 chip, all is need is disassemble lumia and find emergency download testpoint, that should be easy.

however, then need to find suitable emergency nand programmer ( loader ), but i'm think standard loader from qualcomm with eMMC support will do job.

now about that "storage device thing"

standard qualcomm OSBL, if detecting so-called "magic value" will expose eMMC as mass storage device.

( qualcomm dload in device manager, qualcomm vid/pid )

"magic value" is detected ( or "emulated" ) by DBL ( or OSBL itself ) when we press volume up/volume down keys when power on phone.

so it seems, that "old" lumia's contains "standard" qualcomm OSBL.

after some firmware update OSBL replaced with "normal" , customized by NOKIA thing ( nokia dload in device manager, nokia vid/pid )
[Nokia Lumia 800] Jaxbot:
Just what I suspected.

OSPL is updated when Nokia Care Suite does the "Preparing to flash" screen. This allows it to load DLOAD. It should still update the bootloader, though, in the flashing process.
[Nokia Lumia 800] biktor_gj:
Well, at least now we know!

A few more tests Ive done:

If you break the amss firmware the phone wont boot, but as long as disk mode works you can recover it

That 64kb partition where I thought imei and simlock were stored is not what i thought. It has the product code and some more data, but after restoring X3non's partition imei and simlock stayed the same (ie locked).

I have still to follow ultrashot's instructions and build a custom rom based on boot images from firmware packages and see if it boots. Planning it for the weekend (i wont find two-three free hours till then)

Btw, any ideas on how does nokia's osbl communicate? Been poking it like it were a serial port but no go...
[Nokia Lumia 800] beidl:
Where are those instructions? I could try it in the meanwhile... As long as I don't f*ck around with the LK bootloader ^^
[Nokia Lumia 800] Jaxbot:
X3n0n, where'd you get that OSPL you posted?

From what I can tell, it didn't solve our issues with Nokia DLOAD, but I'm curious as to see what might be different with it.
[Nokia Lumia 800] X3n0n:
I didn't post any OSBL, you are mistaken :)
[Nokia Lumia 800] Jaxbot:
****

Okay, scratch out everything I've posted about osbl in this thread. Looks like I got some stuff mixed up. Time to test something else.
[Nokia Lumia 800] beidl:

This could come in handy.
[Nokia Lumia 800] Jaxbot:
In regards to the NCS OSBL updater, the file it flashes is an FFU called "Nokia.First.Dll" in the product support tool folder.

This doesn't really help us, but I'd like to point out that this is flashed whenever the Nokia Care Suite is used, and thus Nokia didn't update the OSBL via a firmware update or anything along those regards.
[Nokia Lumia 800] xsacha:
Seeing as the OSBL says the name of the USB device it is recognised (when volume up+down is pressed) as and it was changed in 11500, I'm about .. hmm.. 100% sure it is due to the Nokia OSBL being recognised as Nokia DLOAD :) And that it was updated.

I will flash the Qualcomm OSBL since everyone else is too scared :)
[Nokia Lumia 800] Jaxbot:
But then, why does NCS flash a new OSBL prior to updating?

And I tried flashing the Qualcomm OSBL, but it fails. Think it's due to the missing cert.

(In case you're wondering what I mean by "it fails", horribly generic:

)
[Nokia Lumia 800] xsacha:
NCS doesn't have any OSBL. It is sending messages to OSBL (it's required for update).

Rip open the osbl's in a hex editor to understand. There is no mistake.

Which firmware files are you using?

Should look like this: http://i.imgur.com/Xj4ss.png

I'm not sure if NCS can flash these raw files or it requires .esco's.
[Nokia Lumia 800] Jaxbot:
Hm, my files look like these:

Where'd you get those? Have you tried replacing the MBN yet?

And are you SURE it's sending messages to the OSBL? Because this particular call uses UpdateWP to flash an ffu, which I'm pretty sure updates the OSBL to enable Nokia DLOAD. Skipping this step by modifying their code doesn't make it not work for me, so I suspect that's all the update is for. Might be something else, though, I'm just guessing here.
[Nokia Lumia 800] xsacha:
You're using one that needs a .cert.

With my download link I said I found a firmware which doesn't sign or cert anything. Use that one. It's in RM-819 -> 12070 -> 059N6Q8

It has raw files instead of .esco's!

I'm very sure about the OSBL. You can check the sdb2 dump and it's exactly the same as the Nokia OSBL except it's Qualcomm instead of Nokia and provides USB disk access on volume key press.

The UpdateWP function is to update firmware, it sends messages to OSBL. The OSBL is a 900KB file, you won't find this in NCS.

When you have the raw files, use in NCS Recovery and you should see this:

So far I have this problem:

"Can't initialize as vpl package does not contain any esco files"

[Galaxy 3 General] 5ageman:
Hello SG3 owners and colleagues by phone device ;)

I am new to the forums but I am a long time advanced Android and SG3 user. I have tested almost all ROMs available in the SG3 and X8 sections.

I have a serious issue with my SIM card that I use with my SG3. It worked fine since I got the SG3 and it worked with all ROMs. Yesterday I wanted to flash a stable Eclair ROM and settle with it but this is when my issues started.

I flashed the Revival ROM Classico. When I booted into the OS I was asked for the SIM PIN. I know I have turned this off, but I imputed the last PIN I used. I got an error, service denied (or something similar) and I could not get past this prompt. When I dismissed the prompt I got into the OS but I had no network. OK, the rom clearly sucks and I reflashed CM7.2 A8 which I used normally since it was released.

CM7 was not asking for the PIN, but I had no service in this ROM either. Did factory reset, reflashed, nothing, tried CM9, nothing, tried MIUI nothing.

And here is the weird part...when I insert another SIM the network on the SG3 works fine and I get service. When I insert my current SIm (that does not work with SG3) in another phone it works flawlessly :/, so only when I use my current SIM with SG3 no matter the ROM I get no service.

Anyone can help me?! Should I damn the Revival ROM dev to eternal suffering? J/K

SIM problem

I have a similar problem with CM9

I have my SIM locked with a PIN but CM9 does not ask for it, ever.

I tried to select my network manually, but a get "network is not available"

The only solution I found is to disable the SIM lock although I don't like it much...

its not the same problem, sim lock just hasnt been added to the function list on CM9 yet. Im not sure it will be added either as i dont think its on official cm9.

This morning I was awake early, before the people next door.

The people next door turn off their router at night. This morning the my HOS connected to my router, the SSID is still hidden. I confirmed with Wifi-Analyzer that next door had turned off their router which is always broadcasting 3 SSID values all on Channel 1 which is standard behaviour for BT HomeHub routers these days.

Later in the morning I could hear people next door, I power cycled Wifi on the HOS, and now it will not connect to my router. My router is on Channel 7.

This is the only HTC Android phone I have had which has had this problem, my other Android devices never had a problem.
