Thanks man.

So just to make sure.

I use these tools and drivers

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2391138

Then following your instructions from OP

Load fake wp8 file for the t899m from OP

Load csc from previous post to this.

That's it right?

Also Im not sure on last couple of directions. So after the program finishes, I hold the power button while the phone is still connected to usb like Im doing a soft reset? Then hard reset it using the hardware buttons before it fully boots. Or fully boot after "soft reset" and hard reset via settings? Or was that totally wrong.

Its been quite sometime since Ive flashed a phone. Last was my HD7. But Ive always flashed my windows mobile(or phone in hd7 case) phone including my hd2 before that. Just a bit rusty and out of the loop.

Thanks

It doesn't matter, how you make HR.
[Windows Phone 8 Development and Hacking] thals1992:
N00b process. Just making sure the process is crystal clear.

COPY ANYTHING YOU NEED OFF YOUR DEVICE

BEFORE

STARTING THIS PROCESS!

Install bundled driver.

Open WP8 SMD binary USB Downloader Ver. 3.33.1 (ADD Polo USCC).exe (or newer)

Use fake_SGH-T899M_SIGN.wp8 as 1

Use wolfROM_2.1_T899M.mbn as 2

switch DL option from ALL to Select

Make sure CSC is the only thing checked!

Turn phone off

Press VolDown&Camera (should reach a download mode screen)

Press start

Downloader will ask you "Download all binary?".

Click "NO"!

This where its easy to brick!

Your phone should reboot and everything should seem like normal.

Go to settings -> about -> reset your phone

Watch them gears spin! :p:silly:

Welcome to an InteropUnlocked Samsung (w/Custom ROM)!
[Windows Phone 8 Development and Hacking] miki89:
YES, that is the correct way to do.. :)
[Windows Phone 8 Development and Hacking] reeg420:
Flashed the CSC today. All went well.

Right back to where I was, restore came up on initial setup and all my apps just finished reinstalling. All went perfect.

Only things Ive noticed is the never option is gone in screen timeout which kinda sucks. Internet Sharing is working flawlessly though which is a major plus for the couple times a month that it will come in handy.

The power button bug thals was talking about is non existent on mine everything is working great.
[Windows Phone 8 Development and Hacking] thals1992:
Most likely, its only an issue with CDMA devices like this. Even the HTC Trophy did weird things once something even got close to touching anything in cellular.

I guess there is a reason Verizon takes so long to test updates. These things are so touchy.

Also I guess that's the same reason the ATIV SE launched with GDR3 instead of 8.1 and WPCentral advising against updating to the Dev Preview.
[Windows Phone 8 Development and Hacking] reeg420:
That's probably true.

For reference I'm using an unlocked t899m originally for telus on tmobile. Had to add my apn's after but no big deal.
[Windows Phone 8 Development and Hacking] GoodDayToDie:
Whoa, you get Internet Sharing to work on TMoUS? I've got the same Telus-branded factory-unlocked SGH-T899M, and none of Microsoft, T-Mobile, Telus, or Samsung could figure out why Internet Sharing doesn't work, nor could any of the forums I asked on.
[Windows Phone 8 Development and Hacking] reeg420:
Yup its working flawlessly. Im actually on Simple Mobile using the Telus branded t889M factory-unlocked also. Its one of the huge things I missed having from my hd7. Not that I use it often but when I need to it'll be awesome its there again.

I went from wp8.1 to flashing wolfs csc and hard resetting. After adding the dummy txt file to unblock RPC I am able to use SamWP8Tools to edit the registry. Even the hard reset wasn't that bad during initial setup it loaded my backup from earlier in the day. After all my apps reinstalled I was at the same place I started with.

Nice work Wolf Id consider this tested and approved. Maybe we can get somebody with some experience to rework the flash tool to make it safer for the "fake" rom. Like not having the download binary pop up, it just doesn't download it by default with no option to initiate downloading binary.
[Windows Phone 8 Development and Hacking] -W_O_L_F-:
I've made such flasher, but it's even more dangerous. Without this dialog you can totally brick your phone.

Downloading CSC is not a normal flashing process, flasher just copy 2 files to the phone. So, it's safe to flash CSC when GPT differs.

But flashing some partitions when GPT differs will brick your phone. In this case partitions offsets in GPT and real offsets are different. And if your phone can't find partitions with a bootloader... you need JTAG to repair it.

on my t899m

I get error Channel 0 partition info does not Match

Here are screenshots
[Windows Phone 8 Development and Hacking] reeg420:
^^ I got an error like that also. Think it has to do with the fake rom not having any data in it. Didnt matter for me.

Notice how it successfully wrote the csc part though.
[Windows Phone 8 Development and Hacking] -W_O_L_F-:
All OK. Don't worry. This ROM is made from ROM for another model.

Q:If microsoft update windows phone 8.1, need make wolfROM from WINDOWS/system32/CSC ?
[Windows Phone 8 Development and Hacking] -W_O_L_F-:
Your model has some additions in CSC. I added them to wolfROM and it started to work.

MS can't do anything with CSC, it's Samsung's part. Usually they make a fix that break any previous hacks.
[Windows Phone 8 Development and Hacking] rina-inverse:

Finally done!! just one more question, can I interop or bootstrap my phone with your mbn creator? I feel like a big noob atm :crying:
[Windows Phone 8 Development and Hacking] -W_O_L_F-:
Interop unlock - "Unlock"

Capabilities unlock - "Basic"
[Windows Phone 8 Development and Hacking] fadenfisch95:
will this work for interop unlocking my ATIV S with 8.1 installed?
[Windows Phone 8 Development and Hacking] -W_O_L_F-:
It's safer to use MBN Creator. Find latest version of it in the end of its thread. It can flash phones.

Latest Samsung update blocks unlocking. But Preview for Developers can be unlocked. Type *#1234# in Diagnosis, DNI3 can't be unlocked.

You can also flash GDR3 + unlock and then update. But unlock will be gone after HR.
[Windows Phone 8 Development and Hacking] fadenfisch95:
Ok, I don't get you here... Attached is what I get. Any way for me on DP not unlocked to get the Firmware update without resetting my phone?
[Windows Phone 8 Development and Hacking] -W_O_L_F-:
You have BME1, so you can use MBN Creator to unlock. If you're lucky, unlock will be applied without HR.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] Woody_XDA:
Just to find out before I buy one can I flash the vodafone v1640 to XDA Exec firmware.

And if so is it a matter of just flashing one ROM onto the phone ?
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] Azriaphale:
Yes ! You would need to use MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe to install a different rom to the phone. Plenty of guides can be found in the forums as well as the roms files.

I would unlock the phone to while your at it too.

The O2 rom (Exec) is popular as is I-mate and Q-tec.

[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] koragg97:
Does anyone think that Samsung will integrate the new battery saving technology from LucidLogix into the S3 Mini if it gets KitKat? I already get about 15 hours of medium use on my SGS3 Mini GT-I8190 and this tech can improve battery life with as much as 35% while gaming and 25% while web surfing and navigating using GPS. Overall increase should be something unbelievable like 50% more battery juice, which means a few more hours of precious gameplay, web surfing and navigating around your neighbourhood xD

[Verizon HTC One (M7)] me.aakash:
just curious to know,

can someone please tell me what does changing CID and MID do.....and/or why people to change them.....

in general i just want to know what is the use of changing them....thanx
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] cmlusco:
Cid is carrier id, and mid is model id. They are used for identification and protection purposes. Most all files you flash have an android info file which gets checked against your mid and cid. If they do not match, the file will not flash to prevent posible damage.Mostly people change them in order to flash roms or software not really intended for their phone. Some people also change cid in order to recieve an ota not yet available on their carrier, or to switch their phones to be a google play edition phone. Unless your positive what your doing, you shouldn't mess with either.

Please, could anyone help me to solve the above? has anyone experienced this?

Thank you
[HD Mini General] iPlasm:
First of all, do you want android or Windows?

for android, when you see "ENTERING FASTBOOT MODE" then you can reinstall the Recovery and go!
[HD Mini General] esQmo:
Thanks for replying.

I just want my phone work again, so either Windows or Android...

But with android, i already intalled LK Boot (the message appears in blue now) then i installed the recovery from SC Dard but when the phone boots, it's only showing the black screen with message (in blue). With windows I stuck with the ''Invalid vendor ID'' while installing with RUU (I can't determinate my Vendor ID). So please help

Regards
[HD Mini General] iPlasm:
You had Android before as you said, so you can come back to android easily. just be really sure you have reinstalled the Recovery correctly! (Even this happened to me, but at last you will Pass!)

have you tried to manually enter recovery by VolumeUp?

Please tell us the ROM you want to use.
[HD Mini General] esQmo:
I can't enter recovery manually, only with PC (with CWM LK Boot Recovery's update.bat file). when i power on the phone holding volume up, the phone displays this message (in blue = meaning that the LK Boot is installed):

[HD Mini General] iPlasm:
Good,

When you can't enter Recovery manually (Volume Up), means either it hasn't been installed correctly or you button is damaged. Yes LK Boot is installed (the blue texts) but the Recovery (graphic interface) seems hasn't been installed.

if you can enter Recovery by PC, why not format and install ROM there (don't restart)? you may pass anyway!

and the last thing, did you hold both Power and Volume up? you should just power then release it, but hold Volume UP, what we see in the text you showed us, the phone hasn't detect the pressed Volume Up.

Have a nice try!
[HD Mini General] esQmo:
I've also formatted before i install the ROM but no succes...

I don't think there is a problem with the volume up button 'cause i use it in the recovery and when i press both volume buttons and power button it leads me to the WP reset option (factory resset) and i use the volume up button to confim the action (restoring).

And, is there a way in can check my Vendor ID? 'cause i would like to install WP but fastboot doesn't give me the CID, the command ''fastboot getvar CID'' returns ''CID: '' then nothing. I'm so desesperate...

BR.
[HD Mini General] iPlasm:
Going Back to WM you should have the right ROM, or contact HTC for the right one, read this http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=21617447&postcount=2

either Android or WP

[HD Mini General] iPlasm:
Alright then,

You said you can't enter Recovery by VolumeUp, right?

if right, connect USB to PC, Click on Update.bat, press number one, then number two, and restart phone (don't unplug phone), when entered fastboot, press number two again, you may now enter manually recovery. if you couldn't pass, press number two and on your phone you would see recovery interface, format and install the ROM, unplug USB and restart phone..... :o

[HD Mini General] iPlasm:
yeah I mean those 4 arrow buttons which you should touch them. if you touch the arrow, the selection above will move. And there is no need to move by using Volume keys in Recovery.

using PC, it should be possible through terminal ADB, which are some codes for connection. but I don't support this way.

I recommended that you do it by using touch, if the four arrow touch doesn't work, then how can you use it with Android? especially the Phone app is in the four arrow button direction.
[HD Mini General] anshulonweb:
well my touch is not working then because i press the arrows and nothing happen....... the problem is that even if i get my touch repaired again there is no way of knowing if it is working unless i come home and install recovery again and check it by pressing arrows.... i only see blue screen now...

can you please tell me how to install rom through adb.....i can take the risk.....please i will be very thankful.....once i install rom, i can get my phone repaired because i can show the person that touch is not working and he will repair it.... please help me....
[HD Mini General] iPlasm:
You should follow a guide, search for (Install ROM through adb, install ROM without SDCARD, install ROM via adb)

Anyway, I found this guide may help you: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=911228

Remember to enter recovery as you did it (Volume + up), So follow the link above at your risk, you may skip the Wipe/format step.
