[Windows 10 Mobile] TheDrive:
Take attention! I didn't tried (no device on my hands) but some external firehose loader tools could dump partitions (or whole emmc contents), E.g. emmcdl and thor2 some kind too. Firehose loader for your device should support data dumping (sure it does support by default but could be blocked by OEM for the 'security' purposes). The loader you send externally in the PBL 9008 mode is the only [working] SW on the phone side to communicate with your external util. You can dump your userdata (independently of is it damaged or not) extract some sensitive [lost] data and or fix some problems like pattern lock or ANYthing else (you know how to fix). Then flash image back to the device. You should definitely know or explore/find where the particular [should be] data stored on the device. Search forums to find other ppl experience relatively to the particular OS files locations. Use some image mount tools to mount FS images and/or some recovery tools like R-Studio to extract files (incl lost, damaged, deleted, unless they were overwritten by other data) from images directly.

Please note the described possibility is related to the Qualcomm platform and there are no matter if Android or WinPhone (other OS?) installed as OS. On other hand this will not work on other platforms (e.g. MTK or Intel - there are another tools for them) independently of Android or Windows OS is installed on the device.

When you dump partition images then it will be the matter which particular tools and methods you should use to deal with. Platform and platform related tools give you HW and HW related possibilities to deal with HW media and it's sectors/zones/ranges/etc. Primary and secondary bootloaders, required to start up the device, modem FW and data, required to establish communications (work with separate DSP/'CPU'), OEM partition data are also related to the HW and HW to SW bridging. OS partition images are whole related to the OS (i.e. SW) and its data structures. It may contain drivers ot configs for the particular HW but all these drivers and configs are OS related and required to launch this particular OS and it's system and app SW.
