DeBrand / ReInstall ROM to your Lumia 950/950XL - Microsoft Lumia 950/950 XL

Hi there
Here is a way to DeBrand / ReInstall (old) ROM to your Lumia 950/950XL
I went back from 10.0.010586.36 to 10.0.010586.0
Booting of your Lumia 950/950XL
To continue this tutorial, it is necessary to start your Lumia 950/950XL in the FFU Download boot. To do so, follow the five steps mentioned below:
- Turn off your Lumia 950/950XL.
- Press and hold the power button to start your Lumia 950/950XL.
When your Lumia 950/950XL starts, it displays the Microsoft logo.
At this instant, release the power button, then press and hold the volume up button. This step should be done quickly.
After a few seconds, an image composed of a white lightning and a white gear wheel appear on the screen of your Lumia 950/950XL.
At this instant, release the volume up button.
Connect your Lumia 950/950XL at your PC, this one should simply detect it.
Installation of the ROM
The most important part of this tutorial will begin, but it is also the most critical.
You are going to use the Windows Phone Image Designer software for flash your Lumia 950/950XL. (downloads below)
Access to the ..\LumiaFlashTools\WPID directory.
Execute the Start.bat file.
The Windows Phone Image Designer window appears and also two batch windows (don't close it, otherwise it will result in also close the software).
Select the Flash a Windows Phone image onto your phone option , and click on the Next button .
As you have connected your Lumia 950/950XL in Microsoft FFU Download Mode at your PC, the software should detect it as x.MSMx.x.x.x where the differents x are variable in according on the connected Lumia 950/950XL.
If your Lumia 950/950XL hasn't been automatically detected by the software, you can click on the refresh button .
Then click on the Change button.
Select the FFU file
Click on the Flash button .
The software then proceeds at flash, in your Lumia 950/950XL, of the ROM that you previously selected.
A few minutes later, the installation process terminates. The software indicates then that the ROM you selected has been installed in your Lumia 950/950XL.
Your Lumia 950/950XL should restart automatically, integrating then the ROM that you just flash him. You can then disconnect him from your PC.
Have fun with it !!!

Ok. But, WPID is the same thing (the same tutorial) for all WP8.x/W10M Lumia devices. The only thing that is different is currently to get the ROMs.

Hi,
0xc is typically cause by a corrupted image (FFU file). Re-download the FFU file.

BTW; I can get you any FFU file if you provide me an PC number

This is my lumia

Stuck in wheels and reboot every time trying to hard reset

Nothing work with me ....i dont know why ?

Wich version is that

Can you help me plzzzz

none of them, it is prototype not retail device like the ones in shops.

DJO,
the reason you cannot flash the firmware is because these firmware versions posted are signed:Retail. You have a prototype, which does not have the proper certificates installed (unless they were loaded to that device specifically) for you to install retail signed firmware. You can check the status of this with thor... using the read rdc command.
---------- Post added at 02:04 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:59 AM ----------
Djtonka,
can you get a hold of the rdccac file for the 950?

As a reminder:
4. Use the English language.
We understand that with all the different nationalities, not everyone speaks English well, but please try. If you're really unable to post in English, use an online translator. You're free to include your original message in your own language, below the English translation. (This rule covers your posts, profile entries and signature).

there is no software for prototypes on servers

Just curious, is it possible to install a branded ROM onto a phone with an unbranded ROM, assuming that the ROM is for the Lumia 950 XL RM-1085 versions? Only reason I'm asking is because the SIM settings on my phone is screwed up and my phone is stuck in airplane mode, and I'm thinking maybe if I flash one a branded ROM it will fix it, so then I can flash back to the unbranded one after. I tried reflashing the same ROM and my phone is still stuck in airplane mode...

So I have an att Lumia 950... If I do this will my phone act like an unlocked unbranded 950 ? Will I be able to receive firmware updates? Because I have att and I haven't received any firmware updates and I really think they would help my battery life. Thanks

T3238 Touch "3G" Clone HELP (Bricked K3)!

I flash this phone with a wrong image, and now only a white screen appear.
Is impossible to make any key combination to get to the "download screen" or "update via k3img.bin".
But if i connect the cel via activesync I can see it on the desktop via trueconnection or any other remote control software (the cel is "working").
Some days ago, i make a dump of this cell and I have it on my computer (via pdocread), so my idea is to use the pdocwrite to at least write the first part00 to reprogram the buttons, so i can use a k3img.bin (in chinese... better than nothing) again.
But the software says that the partition is write protected, and I try almost all ways to unlock the Extended_ROM on windows and still says that is write protected.
Can u, masters of the cell phones help me?
Im facing the very same problen, so if some more knowledged might help us.
As Beastworm already described - I am too unable to get Download mode because of wrong button mapping.

what u do?
and, what .img u use to reflash the phone?
I installed the app, connected the phone & waited until it was recognized as windows mobile. Started the IDT before the first aid kit & used image: P638M30_TH_UI1_L12_C7_CHS_MFGW_WM650_C02SPC002R01_091203.bin (WM6.5 Chinese).
After the IDT was waiting for the phone to connect, I started up the first aid kit & simply clicked Download mode and the IDT took care of the rest.
It took me two flashes to get it right, but after that it's been working as expected.
Im not sure, but if you're running either windows vista or 7, you might wanna run the first aid kit as an administrator.
nothing, i am in windows 7 (and running it as administrator) and the download mode button is still in grey
I will search for a xp machine and try again.
btw. The 6.1 chinese rom, have a good button mapping.
Do you mind sharing that working 6.1 image? And I hope you can revive your phone with some xp machine!
let me find it.
I dumped a working 6.1 English, but only the *.raw-files. I don't know how to get them together to a working image.
It's from a 01.001.IP638 EN, RomDate 9/15/2009, Radio Version 1.07.9235, Protokol Vers. DV3.0

NEWS: MY PHONE IS ALIVE AGAIN (in a windows XP machine)
but.... i flash another bad rom , and now all is flipped like a mirror (and the buttons are still bad mapped )
The K3 First aid kit don't work now (it recognizes it, but when i press "download mode" the phone don't restart). Is a very clean spanish rom of 6.1, so i think that p638chinesestuff.cab that is installed when a hard reset is done, is the responsible to k3firstaid work.
So i will try to extract it from the dump, and install it on the phone, and try to reflash again.
Why I flash a bad rom?... i have a file with the name "K3imgCHI61.bin" and I think thats was the chinese 6.1.... but not. It is the Chilean (my country) 6.1
Fine, that your phone is alive again.
I read somewhere (I don't now where) that somebody solved the problem with the mirrored screen after flashing a new rom. He made a hard reset and after aligning screen everything was o.k.

[GUIDE] Step by step instruction to install/flash a custom rom.

Hello all,
There are many new users who want to install/upgrade to a custom rom but totally don't know from where they should start. So, they ask the same question again and again in irrelevant threads. Here is a very short guide which will help you to install/upgrade to a custom rom and will hopefully prevent newbie's from asking the same question.
@All New users: There is no problem in asking question and everybody is ready to help you but many ppl just don't go through the pages even tho the question has been answered several times in a single thread.
Things to be known:-
1. Flashing The term flashing means installing or upgrading. When we say Flashing a rom that simple means we are installing the rom. But sometimes you would have seen in forums ppl saying flash Hard spl or so. Here too flashing simply means installing.
2. Basic information On powering up your phone the basic information displayed on the screen are: ONBL version, SPL version, GSM or Radio version and OS version.
For flashing a custom rom we only need to know about SPL for now.
3. SPL Here is the description of SPL by krazy_about_technology,
SPL or Second Program Loader is a part of your phone's firmware. Its responsible for both loading of operating system and it is also used by operating system for some low level tasks. By Default, HTC and Other Manufacturers too, design it in such a way that it does not allows custom ROMs to be flashed in the phone. It does no by checking for the Digital Signature of HTC on roms. So it need to be patched in order to flash custom ROMs made by chefs in this forum.
4. H-SPL As you can see in the above description that SPL are designed in such a way that it doesn't allow you to flash custom roms. So we need a H-SPL ( Hard SPL). When we flash a HSPL it simply patches the current SPL or in other words it unlocks the device for flashing custom roms.
The flashing process
1. Flashing HSPL First flash HSPL, head over to this thread ( here ) for all the instructions and downloads of HSPL.
2. ROM Now after flashing HSPL choose a custom rom. Almost all the custom roms are compressed commonly with winrar or 7zip.
So, if you dont have winrar or 7zip to uncompress the package get any one of them. My suggestion is get 7zip from here.
After uncompressing the custom rom package there are two cases,
Case 1: There is a single *.nbh file, generally the rom file is named as RUU_signed.nbh ( but remember it may be of any other name too, just it will be of *.nbh format ). In this case you need some additional tools to flash this file into ur device.
How to flash the nbh file (this only guides you to flash nbh not unlocking ur device (hspl)​
Here is a short method.
1. Download this Installation package (295 kb). here
2. Extract the above downloaded package anywhere on pc (say desktop)
3. Copy the downloaded nbh to the extracted folder. (Here the extracted folder name is Installation package)
4. Double click on ROMUpdateUtility.exe
5. Follow the onscreen instructions.
Thats it!
Case 2: After uncompressing the custom rom package you will see there are additional files with the rom file. These additional files are nothing but the tools required to flash the rom into your device. So in this case you don't need any additional files and you can directly for for flashing.
Flashing the rom:
For XP
1. Download and install Microsoft Activesync 4.5 (the latest) if you don't have it in your pc. It can be downloaded from here.
2. Connect your Device with PC via USB cable. As soon as you connect you would see a pop up window on your device. Probably there will be three options, you have to select the option which is Activesync.
Now you should see in your PC Activesync connected, if it didn't sync open Activesync go to connection setting and select the port through which your device is connected. Now re plug-in your device.
3. Run the ROMUpdateUtility.exe remember the flashing tool should be in a folder where the rom file is also present. Follow the on-screen instructions. Thats it.
For vista/windows 7
1. Download and install Microsoft Device centre from here.
2. Connect your Device with PC via USB cable. As soon as you connect you would see a pop up window on your device. Probably there will be three options, you have to select the option which is Activesync.
Now you should see in your PC Device center is connected, if it didn't sync open Device center go to connection setting and select the port through which your device is connected. Now re plug-in your device.
3. Run the ROMUpdateUtility.exe remember the flashing tool should be in a folder where the rom file is also present. Follow the on-screen instructions. Thats it.
Essential thing to be known:-
1. Bootloader mode Knowing how to enter into Bootloader mode is one of the most essential thing to be known for a opal user (windows mobile users).
How to enter?
There are two way to enter into bootloader mode.
1. If you device is on, open your device's back cover. Press the soft reset button ( red button ) using stylus. As soon as you press it, immediately press the volume down button and keep holding it until you see a tri-color screen on your device's screen.
2. If your device is off, press the power button as soon as the device vibrates immediately press volume down button and keep holding it until you see a tri-color screen on your device's screen.
Uses?
If you flashed a damaged rom, you would be no longer able to use your device. In that case enter into bootloader mode. And flash a different rom.
Thanks
Explain the excellent and easy to understand, good work Thank you
Iam glad that you liked it. I hope now ppl will refer this thread and not rom threads. Ppl can ask all the question that they ask on other threads here.
Nice Guide
You've done a great job with this guide. Thanks. I've already referenced it on another post.
i have hard spl my device...i've instales the rom from this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=680164

the i instaled again the 6.1 rom froms here: http://ptxserver.net/blog/?page_id=37
the i've tried again to unlock the phone but same error...
but when i started to put the first rom on mi device...opal v 6.5..i have the same problem...can someone explain how to unlock the phone and to have the first rom on my device(opal version 6.5 d25)...pls...
Ruch0 your question is not at all clear, if you want someone to help you then please make it little more clear.
Is your phone sim locked, if so then it is always said not to flash a custom rom.
According to ur question u say u have done hspl and installed a rom then trying to unlock the rom. Here by unlocking do you mean sim unlocking?
to make a better point i want to get rid off the 260 error...because i have found a lots of programs that will sim unlock the phone...
know i am trying to use this:
1. download hardspl v7 from the first post.
2. extract ruu_signed.nbh and rename it to HERMIMG.nbh
3. copy it to a microsd card, make sure the card is formatted as fat32
4. download sspl-herm from here
5. extract SSPL-HERM.exe and copy it to your phone.
6. insert sd card and run sspl-herm.exe on the phone.
7. you should see the tri-color screen and then it should change to this
8. press power button to start flashing
9. reset when you get the msg that its done.
but i cant start the sspl-herm.exe from my mobile...
LOL, that really made be to laugh. First of all are you sure that you have a HTC Touch Viva (opal) because from your description it is clear that you are using herms and having some probs. Well, my friend this section is ONLY for the device called HTC Touch Viva (opal). So asking here is a total wastage of time.
You should immediately head over to herms section and ask the ppl over there. Visit here.

The main thing you have to check is whether your phone is synced with ur PC via activesync/windows mobile device centre. If you are sure that it is synced then also not working then there might be some other problem.
About remote access don't worry there is a software called Team viewer it will bypass all firewalls.
Yeah, Jagan sorry, I know the team viewer, tomorrow we can use this,
thank you for ur help.

Hi Jagan
I have HTC Touch Viva purchased recently in India.
Software : Win Mobile 6.1 Professional Build : 19971.1.2.6
ROM Version : 1.35.720.2 WWE
Radio Version : 03.37.90
Protocol Version : 4.1.13.74
I tried to update its OS to Win Mobile 6.5 first time.
I followed your instruction in Post 1. But I am unable to do that.
First I tried HSPL 2, but it didn't work. I got 202 error.
I downloaded the ROM from the following Link.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=629257
ROM update also failed.
While updating, it showed the message like
Current ROM Version 1.35.xx...
New ROM Version : 1.27.xx...
To update the OS to 6.5, I need to do any thing else? Where I am going wrong? Plz help.
ivk: caioofaria has too similar problems that is error 202, its like in some pc its not coming and in some its coming. I will check that out again today in caioofaria's pc.
I will post result of my testing today, if anyone has a suggestion post it here.
For now iam assuming that ivk and caioofaria is not able to flash hspl because of there new default os. I will try to get a solution for this,
But if anyone has suggestion be sure to post it here.
Need Help - Update
Hi Jagan,
Little bit improvement in my problem.
The HSPL completed. Now the spl version : 1.26.0.0
Again when I try to update the ROM, getting Update Error 270.
Tried on different laptops(win 7). But getting the same problem.
Thanks.
No the spl version should be something like this 2.00 cmonex
That means you have done hspl yet. Actually i think i got the prob of the error, when you u try to do hspl and ur screen goes tri color then your pc will or i should say must install a driver it will be something like "Pocket pc syn" if its not doing then hspl will not get flashed. Just one again try to do hspl in windows 7 then when you are in tri color screen see in ur notification area below that some driver is getting installed.

[Q] Problems with flashing new firmware on Samsung I8700 Omnia 7

I can't seem to get my Omnia 7 to communicate with Win7 via USB cable in Download Mode. I use Win7 Pro x64.
I've installed:
I8700_Samsung_Mobile_USB_Driver(V5.2)_V1.2.1050.0
I run:
I8700_WP7_Downloader_Ver_7.03_For_Retail_Device_(Product_Force_Select)_
I've even tried uninstalling all Samsung USB drivers, reinstalling them and restarting my system, but I still can't get it to work.
When I start the WP7 Downloader, it says "MD5 Confirm Process: Cannot Image File Please Try Again!" in a dialog named "Confirm MD5 Value". What is that all about? There are no MD5 files in the firmware package that I've downloaded (I8700XXJJ4). If I click "Close", the application dialog opens, but I get no connection to the phone via a COM port.
What am I doing wrong?
[UPDATE!]
I got my Omnia 7 to connect by starting up the WP7 Downloader BEFORE I rebooted the phone into Download Mode. However, I'm still getting the "MD5 Confirm Process: Cannot Image File Please Try Again!" in a dialog named "Confirm MD5 Value". Please help!
Please post in the proper forums. If you have an issue related specifically to that device, please post it there. This is for WP7 development as a whole, and device specific problems go in their proper forums and subsections.
~~Tito~~
To flash, you have to start WP7 Downloader before you plug your Omnia 7 in download mode. And then you'll see a new COM port. (h**p://pdaphoneaddict.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=133&t=21328])
Be carefull : the XXJJ4 firmware seems not to work. It's not a valid binary retail file whereas the DTMJJ6 works fine. I'll flash my Omnia 7 one week ago. (]h**p://pdaphoneaddict.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=133&t=21326]) The DTMJJ6 is a T-Online branded ROM.
My Omnia 7 is a French Orange branded device and with the DTMJJ6, some features don't work anymore as data transfert without WiFi. It's the reason why I advise you to wait an other ROM. In my case I'm waiting for a dump of the original ROM or a new I8700XX.. files but still nothing...
firmware
where did you get the firmware or update, is it possible to get firmwares for other phones like the focus,
Please,
i have I8700XXJJ6 WITH CSC TMUJJ6, the phone is locked to T-mobile UK, and i'm downloading DTMJJ6, will this rom work, if yes, will the phone be unlocked ?
Thanks,
B.R.
It won't be unlocked with the new ROM...

The new ROM feels snappier due to the better 3g/wireless speeds and gets rid of the horrible tmobile branded IE and searches.
Over all definitely worth trying.
So it's the JK1 which is needed, not the JJ6.

to get it unlocked friend ! how can i do it ?
I'm having the same issue, but as far as i know, this problem is related due a replacement of the original download (yellow triangle warning screen) mode by a 'recover mode' (picture of an windows branded phone connecting to a pc).
Is there any other way to set the correct download mode besides using that jig device?
I got some response from the software setting 'Modem, USB Diag.' on the micro USB Test. When I did this, the phone was detected by WP7 Downloader, but the phone was in the wp7 home screen and not in download mode (I chose not try anything).
My Omnia 7 is an unlocked device using SFR branding (JJ6, that october one).

DanMaxis,
There might be a way without a jig. In principal you could try updating right through to nodo which would give you the new Bootloader that allows flashing.
What you have to do is "unbrand" your phone with the Samsung unbrand xap which can be found in the wp7 developer forum. (First or second page)
Of course you need to apply the chevron unlock for it.
After having done that you will be able to receive the pre Nodo update and then the Nodo update with the "cut connection after 4 seconds" trick.
After these updates are installed your bootloader should be the new one. This will in theory enable you to reflash a different rom onto it.
In theory... because I havent tried yet.
I encounter an error on my Omnia 7 that it timed out after the first update. This is a common issue among Samsung users (as has been reported all across the web) and the only way to fix it is to hard reset the phone.
Hi!
I updated my device (Omnia 7) to Nodo with the Chevron Tool but the Firmware (2424.10.10.6) and the bootloader (4.10.1.9) are still the same...
There's no new firmware yet?
With this bootloader I can't access to the downlaod mode... the jig is the only way?
Thank you very much!!!
I don't think the MD5 error relates to phone communication - I got this when I tried to open the update file from within a compressed folder - you have to extract the file that is downloaded to another folder then open it through the update tool. You'll also get an MD5 error if you enter the wrong password for the file.
The Control at the bottom left of the update tool window tells you if the phone is connected or not and is separate to actually opening the update files (turns green and says which Comm port the phone is on if the phone is connected properly).
Hope this helps.

I think you should reflash your phone in order to get it work.
Go here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=943714 and download your compatible rom, then reboot it into bootloader (Power + Volume Down), connect to PC, and reflash ^^
Hope it help
Thank you for your concern, but How am I supposed to figure out what type of ROM I need if I have no access to my phone to see? Haha

Use the Cingular ROM. I flashed my Surround from AT&T and it went OK, the ROM reverted to 7004. After that you can unlock your phone using ChevronWP7, use the fix to prevent it from re-locking again and then update to NoDo.
The rapidshare link from Ansar's post is down. I uploaded the Cingluar ROM to multiupload so you can fix your phone. Download it.
The instructions to flash your phone are as follow:
1. Unzip your downloaded *.zip file in a separate folder
2. Press and hold power-on/off button to power-off the phone
3. Press and hold volume-down button and then press power-on/off button to enter bootloader mode
4. When your phone enters the tricolor screen bootloader mode, release volume-down button
5. Connect your phone to your windows 7/vista/xp pc/laptop with a usb cable
6. Verify that your phone will be identified and relevant drivers will be installed by windows os of your pc/laptop
7. After completion of (6.) above, check the usb message connection on your phone screen
8. To flash the new ROM go to your pc/laptop folder of (1.) above
9. Double click on the ROMUpdateUtility.exe file and strictly follow the instructions on your pc/laptop screen

Please remember not to interrupt the flashing process! Do not disconnect the phone or play with it while it's being flashed. Try avoid using your computer at all and close all other applications before starting.
ertz, Noob here. I updated with the chevron updater and it seems that may be problematic. I'm using an at& branded surround will flashing the cingular rom allow me to recieve updates through zune?

I'm pretty much a noob too, I just learnt a thing or two in the past few weeks
You will have no problems at all with your carrier if you flash your AT&T phone using the Cingular ROM. The SIM-lock will stay the same as it is (either locked or unlocked,) the phone will return to its factory settings.
Being restored to its factory settings will mean that you'll get the updates through Zune when AT&T decides it's time for you to get them. You can, however, unbrand your phone to receive the updates almost as soon as they're released. Remember that you'll need to "developer unlock" your phone before you can unbrand it.
I have my SIM-unlocked Surround on Movistar (Argentina carrier) and I can get the updates through Zune after unbranding it. No Chevron Updater or other hacks to get the updates.
Thank you guys for your help <3 I Actually just went and traded it in for another one If this happens again I will use this method Thank you much!
