Bootloader unlock DLOAD Lumia 800 to Qualcomm

If you want to flash a custom rom, you need to have a Lumia 800 with qualcomm bootloader.

But it's a difficult way to make your DLOAD Lumia 800 to Qualcomm:

You need two main things:

1. You need ATF flasher box

2. You need good soldering skills or the special atf cables from gpg industries

Here's a tutorial to SIM-Unlock a Lumia 800: How-To SIM-Unlock your Lumia 800 - gsmhosting.com

This is almost the same procedure for "bootloader-unlocking" your Lumia 800.

You just do not need to click

SP-Unlock

, you need to click "boot repair" (and select qualcomm, of course).

Here's the thread of the special cables: No more soldering for lumia 610,710,800,900 easiest osbl swap ever

These cables do not require you to solder your device. You only need to open up your phone and connect it to the cable and your ATF Box.

So, if you don't want, or can't buy such a box, check for a local phone repair shop in your town/city. If they have ATF, i'm sure they can do this for you for a small amount.

Hope this helps.

Flash your custom rom using dewe's Lumia Downloader 0.5

Dewe's Nokia Lumia Downloader 0.5

I

attached

the

Nokia Lumia Downloader 0.5

for flashing your Lumia 800 easily in Windows.

Thx to dewe for his great work!

This requires your Lumia 800 to have the qualcomm bootloader!!

First: make a backup of ALL 9 partitions of the phone!

This might really save your ass ;) Id did save mine more than once :D :good:

1. Install Ubuntu to your computer, or use Ubuntu-Live-CD

2. put phone into "Qualcomm Mode" by pressing VOL UP + POWER and connect it to your pc

3. check with

sudo fdisk -l

how your phone appears in ubuntu

4. backup your partitions using this:

sudo dd if=/dev/sd[B]X[/B]1 of=/media/Data/backup1.bin
sudo dd if=/dev/sd[B]X[/B]2 of=/media/Data/backup2.bin
sudo dd if=/dev/sd[B]X[/B]3 of=/media/Data/backup3.bin
up to
sudo dd if=/dev/sd[B]X[/B]9 of=/media/Data/backup9.bin

where the X is your special letter, mostly it's b, c, or d.

if = your input file

of = your output file

And this might take up to 2 hours.

Restoring your backups is the exact opposit.

second: you can now flash your Lumia 800.

because you're already in Ubuntu, you can flash it using:

sudo dd if=/path/to/your/os-new.nb of=/dev/sd[B]X[/B]9

You MUST flash the os-new.nb file to partition 9!!!

Or you can use attached Nokia Lumia Downloader on Windows.

1. Connect your phone in "qualcomm mode"

2. open the Tool with admin rights in Windows

3. Klick "download" and select os-new.nb file

NOTICE: when you connect the phone in "qualcomm mode" in windows, you'll get a message of formatting the drive. DO NOT DO THAT!!!! CLICK CANCEL! If you format, your phone's broken.

Oh, I was about to write that I'm flashing my phone on Windows but then I saw this method below the Ubuntu.

Isn't it better to put the windows method above the ubuntu? I think more ppl use Windows and possibly won't se the windows method as me :p
[Nokia Lumia 800] lordmaxey:
Hi, thx for reply, i wrote it this way, because i wanted to point out, that it is really recommended to make a backup.

If i put the windows flashing above, most people will stop reading, and don't make a backup :D

I think this way, more people read the backup story, so it's their choice if they don't make one :p

Zune

Hey thanks for this tutorial. I just had one quick question.

After I do this can I still sync with Zune? Because I would like my data such as songs and apps back. Is this still possible?
[Nokia Lumia 800] itzAltaf:
if i got for it, it will cost me about 12000 Pakistani rupee for ATF, and about 4000 Pakistani rupee for cable............total 16000, and i can buys with this + sale price of my cell = samsung s#........my GOD....where i am

Good bye to lumia 800....wanna get rid off
[Nokia Lumia 800] lordmaxey:
Hi there,

sorry for late reply.

I you mean with "doing this" unlocking your bootloader, syncing data does not really have anything to do with your bootloader.

Generally, if you make your DLOAD to Qualcomm, your personal files are still on your phone, as bootloader changing does not overwrite any personal files (partition 9 of the phone).

It matters more, which rom you install, if syncing content with zune is still possible or not.

If you flash a custom rom, your data is whiped, as you overwrite your OS partition with the custom rom. But after that, with my roms for example, you can sync your songs etc. back to your Lumia.

I don't think this might work with apps, you have to install them again via marketplace.

Bootloader unlock DLOAD to Qualcomm L800

If I do Bootloader unlock DLOAD to Qualcomm L800 using ATF NITRO ...

do this make any changes on my ROM..?:confused:

will this make my phone data wiped...?:confused:

and do i need any kind of flash files for this:confused:
[Nokia Lumia 800] lordmaxey:
Hi there,

no, this only overwrites your bootloader, which is on a different partition as the phone operating system.

so this will not wipe your phone data.

just flashing a custom rom will wipe your data.

Remove Funkyrom

I am just wondering. If I ever want to go back to the Original Windows Phone OS, can I just restore to factory settings on my windows phone? Or do I need to do some other stuff, I can't find an answer anywhere.
[Nokia Lumia 800] lordmaxey:
Hi there,

if you've made a backup, you can restore this and reset your phone afterwards.

That's the best solution in my opinion, because you're back on the original rom, but you're still on the qualcomm bootloader, so you can reflash a custom rom whenever you want :)

Of course you can restore DLOAD and flash the original ROM with ATF, too. But then you have to do the soldering stuff again, if you want to use a custom rom in the future.

What about the method from cyclone box?

Do you think there will be a method soon for changing bootloader without opening the phone and buying a box? The problem is I don't want to pay for cyclone box.
[Nokia Lumia 800] lordmaxey:
No. I think there'll never be an option.

Afaik, this is only possible with ATF, not with cyclone.
[Nokia Lumia 800] Celteek:
It is said on their website that it is possible to patch bootloader without opening the phone. (sorry I can't post links yet, but it is easy to find on google by typing "cyclone box lumia 800 no tp" ). Unfortunately we need a cyclone box . My question is : will there be a method with which we don't need a cyclone box?
[Nokia Lumia 800] moulnisky:
Answer is yes,

you can write the qualcomm bootloader without using TP (and then opening the phone) using Cyclone box.

Afterward you can do on it any other job same as the mobile been always with the original qualcomm bootloader

BR

Alex
[Nokia Lumia 800] Celteek:
Thank you for your answer, this is some good news! :)

But do you know if we absolutely need to buy the cyclone box, or if there will be a method soon which doesn't need that box? Because it only uses USB...

Best custom rom for L800

Hi

Which is the best custom rom for Lumia 800..?

Is it fully unlocked..?
[Nokia Lumia 800] karwos:
You can always bring your phone to someone with Cyclone Box / Cyclone Key.

I will add other Lumias aswell if 800 solution will not be copied and put free.

[Nokia Lumia 800] silentarts:
I have one question dude...Does this mean I can put Android on my Nokia Lumia 800 Windows Phone?
[Nokia Lumia 800] lordmaxey:
Yes, you can restore original DLOAD with ATF, too.

No, not really. All needed files are included with the box and software. You can easily download them in atf software.

btw, now it is even not necessary anymore to open your phone. The Lumia 800 can now be unlocked (sim AND bootloader) with USB only. :) :good:

No.
[Nokia Lumia 800] Kn!ght L!fe:

HI!

I've just installed Ubuntu with VirtualBox but when I run the command sudo fdisk -l the device does not show! Just the sda 1, 2 and 5.

I would expect it to show as sdb or something? When I plug it in i hold the VOL+ button and it vibrates two times. On the hostmachine it is detected as Qualcomm CDMA Technologies MSM which I activate in the virtualbox (without the driver as I cant find a driver for it in Windows 7/8.1). It should be able to detect it!

If I do the same thing, but boot the phone i regular mode Ubuntu recognizes the device as the phone.

Anyone have a clue?
[Nokia Lumia 800] Swappage:
Hi,

once you have connected the device to virtualbox,

try running in terminal the following command

# lsusb

and see if the device is displayed correctly in the list

also

# dmesg

after the device has been connected to the guest machine can help you to troubleshoot the reasons why the device is not properly detected.

Also consider that sometimes the USB implementation in virtualbox can result in problems with certain devices, which simply don't show up. it happened to me before with wifi adapters for instance.

In the meanwhile i have a question myself,

i've seen a post about using chimera for unlocking the bootloader from DLOAD to qualcomm

is it reliable?

and most importantly, will the process causes data loss?

i'm in the urgent need of reading the internal flash for data recovery purposes, and i was wondering if i could use some tool (chimera or ATF) to flash the boot loader to qualcomm, and then access the internal flash via USB using DD.

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hung2900:
We all know Amoled is great in viewing angle when keeping the high brightness in any angle. But just the brightness, not the color.

My Note 2 becomes pretty greenish even with only a sight change in viewing angle, and it's worse than Galaxy S3. I think this is the problem of Note 2 weird pixel matrix. The best Amoled in term of color in my opinion is Lumia 820 with bright screen, very white and very very little in color shifting.

Galaxy S4 has a new matrix also, so I don't know abt the quality of color.

First of all thanks a bunch MildWild. I am coming from your CM8.0.

Did full wipe and flashed it on stock hboot. Booted perfectly.

Home screen animations/ app drawer are a bit laggy (or may be I am used to the fast AOSP ROMS)

Opening and closing of apps is fast. Missing MildWild settings in the settings. :)

Camera quality is great

I love the old sense 2.1 ROM my Desire!
