I just want to get the identifier token.... I.e the fastboot oem get_identifier_token..... It says " waiting for the device" and it remains just like that....... Help me out ... Let's teamview on 5:30 am ..... Please convert the time to gmt +5:30..... Online there are many timezone converters..... Please help me out somehow....

If your getting stuck at the waiting for device, then u havent done the update first at step 1.
The HTC Dev part is solely down to you..
Firstly plug your phone into the computer and select charge option.
When u Goto htcdev, sign in. Select salsa from phone. Now it will ask you to update the hboot, do this. Don't skip it. Once updtaed then Goto step 8 and get the token code.

well find the post that helped and hit the thanks button lol
glad to be of service

I tried this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=742379
in command prompt on windows: adb shell pm setInstallLocation 2
worked for me, without having root. This command "pm setInstallLocation 2" sets the default install location to the SD-Card. You can move some more programs like Whatsapp ... to SD-Card (no system apps) and it saves some MB of internal storage.
There are only some problems when plugging your phone to USB as mass storage or sync ( e.g. don't move HTC Sync to SD-Card, it crashes when you want to sync ) .

By doing this u create a problem....no access to USB mode is making the phone useless lol what would be the point?

No, you didn't read it right!
I only said that moving the HTC Sync app to SD makes no sense. Using an application from SD card is not possible only in this case, when you use your phone as mass storage or sync because the SD card is unmounted from Android. I don't see
Other problems I don't have with this method. The rest of my phone still can be used. I have 24 of 30 apps on SD card and have 38 MB free internal space since weeks.
Trust me, I am an engineer.

Why would u move a system app that's important to the running to sd anyway lol.
Things you push to SD are non system applications. If you move things like sync/market and other big memory apps to SD, u cause so many issues Inc fcs and system failures.
I run 1.2gb internal memory, still able to use SD card at anytime in anyway.
Non of my apps use SD card due to failures on loading while USB mode is active. Like external SMS apps etc.

Seems its a bug atm. However, if anyone messages you even though you appear offline, you will get the message. Same with calls.

Hey guys. Have a problem with Skype. Recent update makes Skype only to Microsoft Account Sign in but I`m using different Skype accounts and don`t wanna merge them. So Is there any way to sideload old version of Skype? Found 2.13.0.290 but can`t sideload it. Application Deployment says "XAP file is invalid." and WPV XAP Deployer 2.0.0 says "Cannot read that as ZipFile". Same with current version available in store.
I have Lumia 620 with Black update and free unlock (2 apps I think).

You can't sideload XAPs from the store. Just connect one of your Skype accounts to a Microsoft account and problem solved...

You guys sideloading YouTube, right? Because there was good app. I need to use an older version of Skype whose allows me to login with my Skype creditenals instead of Microsoft one. I have found and tried "unlocked" Skype xaps with versions of 0.2.0.0, 1.0.0.0, 1.1.0.0. The most older version closes immidately after start and newer ones crashing when the cyan background appears. IM+ allows me to login with Skype but I can`t make voice calls through it.
So I need any version of Skype from 2.15.0.154 and lower that works with Lumia Black/GDR3 update. Maybe @AlvinPhilemon can help... And for sure I need non-interop version.

My point was that XAPs from the store are encrypted and thus can't be sideloaded, as you can only sideload plain unencrypted XAPs. How AlvinPhilemon obtained the unencrypted YouTube XAP is beyond me, but AFAIK the store encryption hasn't been broken yet, which leaves only the possibility of using either the XAP after it was installed (because they get decrypted after download) or taking the pre-installed one from the ROM (because those are also unencrypted).
Why is signing in with a Microsoft account such a problem for you in the first place? You need it to use most of the phone anyway, and as you've already experienced, older versions tend to have problems, so you will hardly get anything to work. And even if you do, there's always a possibility that Skype login still won't work in case MS changed something on their side.

Sadly I have no success with that
When I`m tricking a response with Fiddler, there is a c00cee3b error. I also tried to replace updated xap file on my SD card to outdated when install button is available on the SD card menu into marketplace. There is a constanly error during setup after 3/4 of the installing bar.

On interop-unlocked phones, it is possible (with some hacks) to extract the files for an app and re-build the .XAP archive. That's how the older YouTube version was resurrected.

I know. But there is also a problem with Skype xaps. Versions 0.2.0.0, 1.0.0.0 and 1.1.0.0 that I found unlocked are not working. v0.2.0.0 crashes immidately and newer ones shows cyan background before crash. There is also version 1.3.0.0 that have ID_CAP_INTEROPSERVICES string. Actual version 2.0.16.266 was "cracked" too and it also has that string.
I can`t install 1.3.0.0 and 2.0.16.266 versions on my Lumia 620 due to INTEROPSERVICES restriction and I can install 1.3.0.0 when ID_CAP_INTEROPSERVICES string is removed but it fails to work. It also crashing after the cyan background appears. 2.0.16.266 still gave an error after no ID_CAP_INTEROPSERVICES string but there is no reason for sideloading it - it`s available on the Marketplace and lacks of Skype account signing in support (people report that they still using their Skype account if they has been logged in in previous versions).

Give me old version of skype xap file. I'll do decrypt it.

If you can successful install a skype without Interop Capability, then you succeed !!!
Just follow my steps to add Interop capability again.
Move skype on the SD Card.
Remove SD Card from the phone.
Insert SD Card on PC through card reader.
Now go to an Installation directory of skype in WPSystem\Apps\{***}\Install
Delete the DRM Encrypted WMAppManifest.xml file.
Now put your decrypted.xml which is an enabled Interop Capability.

I was little skeptical because of WMAppManifest.xml file. An idea to replace it and get some good things was discussed long ago with FAIL.
But anyway I did tried his method. I had successfully replaced that file but just didn't get needed result. App still crashes after the blue background appears for a second or less. Then I tried to move an app back to internal memory and then weird thing happened. Looks like it was failed to transfer my app back with modded file and an operation stuck somewhere between. Skype has disappeared both from Internal and SD card apps list of the Data/Storage Control ("Контроль памяти" in Russian) and it`s icon on the regular app list (one with all apps listed, opens by start screen swipe) turns into grey with no logo on it. When I tried to start it there is loading... ("Загрузка..." in Russian) sign with dot animation appears. I has leaved it in that state for the whole night but nothing happens and the phone was even half-charged after it.
Finally I have found new xap "for Lumia 610" which is WP7 xap and successfully sideloaded it but it crashes after the blue background like the all I tried before. FAIL

you just cant replace files and hope for the best.
sometimes you can trick apps with changed icons but not with complete xml codepages.

WMAppManifest.xml is used at installation of the application, but not to start the application.

VEVO xap for sideloading?

Does anyone have the vevo xap for sideloading? I don't want to lose the app when I change phones or do a factory reset :'(
sent from my denim licious orange nokia 930

Does it even still work? Sounded like they were dropping support for it, not merely de-listing the app.
Not that it would surprise me if it does; I never installed it in the first place so I can't check.

It still works
Everyone advises to just not uninstall it from your phone but what happens if I need to do a hard reset or when I buy my next device?Someone has to have an unsigned xap. I asked Rafael on twitter but because its such public forum he didn't respond but he sometimes drops xaps that are able to side load kong after they're gone
So does anyone have the vevo xap?

i have the xap
@GoodDayToDie if I email it to you can you crack it?

If it's pulled right off the phone, sure; that's a really simple change.
If it's pulled off the store (DRM encrypted) then no, that's an excruciatingly complex wall of nonsense.

ok here it is

Taking a peek now.

Peek where?
@thals1992 look where the store?

Oh taking a peek
Sorry it's 6am a little sleepy

Its the XAP from the store. Encrypted....

Fudge is there anyone out there with the app already installed?
Can anyone else patch the xap?

ok the app is on my phone can i patch it? also i have an old patched xap too
@ceesheim @GoodDayToDie @thals1992
ok I have the app on 2 of my phones an HTC 8X and a nokia 930, I read a tutorial to patch an xap but you need a phone with an sd card, is that the way to get the app off my phone, but neither have sd card slots, with that being said is there still a way to patch the app that's on these phones? I am also uploading an old wp7 version of the vevo app that I downloaded off of winphonhub, its patched and works fairly well with occasional error message, can this patched xap help you patch a more current one?
also id like to add I have 2 windows phones 635 and 830 with sd card slots, this may sound like a silly question, can I put the current marketplace xap onto the sd card and patch it from within the phone? or does it need to be installed on the phone too as well? (which unfortunately they are not installed on my sd card slot phones)

it MUST be installed on a phone with an sd card so that you can move the app to the sd card, then you can get the app of the phone and patch it.
if it isn't installed on your 830 then the xap only will not help you because the market place checks if the app is there , if it isn't then it will not let you install the the app
there are some hardcore ways to get the app of your x8 but that is only for real advanced users like @compu829 , because you need to actually brick your phone to enable mass storage mode . there are some threads about that.

@noelito if you upgrade your L930 to Windows Phone 10, there is a simple way for you to get the xap off of the device for backup!

i can definitely upgrade the L930 to w10 tp
@compu829 ok how to back up the xap? where is the tutorial? I am looking for the way to upgrade non supported devcies to windows 10 phones, I should be good to go because I have noupgrade the windows insider app

is this the link? and when do i do the back up / extract?
ok I found this thread @compu829
http://forum.xda-developers.com/windows-10/general/howto-install-windows-10-phones-t3030105
do I follow the instructions on this thread to install windows 10 on my 930?
however at what point am I able to extract the vevo app and patch, when do I do that?

I was thinking about having you update your phone and then using the following trick to access c:\ on the phone: http://forum.xda-developers.com/win...ranted-c-access-windows-10-technical-t3032766 I know that your model is supported in the next version of the preview when it is released.

@compu829 yes I read the Lumia icon will be supported for windows 10 tp but they didn't mention 930 could have been inadvertently left out, I think I have done this before, if you are able to give step by step instructions im even open to doing a remote access to my PC if you wanted to do it for me or guide me as I go a long doing it

If re-installing the game didn't clear that out, then you'll either need a high-privilege app (something like my Storage Cleanup tool, which would be able to remove those files if you could run it on your phone), or do it manually with full FS access, or you'll need to hard-reset (unless you just want to live with that wasted space, which is an option too).

Speaking of that tool , could you make a similar tool for Lumia phones (or basically no interoperability services )?
Hijacking second party apps seems to grant decent fs access to the App
I'm not really a developer myself tho I'm more of a reckless beta tester
And I'll help with anything I might be able to

Yeah, an update of Storage Cleanup has been on my to-do list. I can't spare the time any time soon - I'm going on vacation to a part of the world with very limited electricity, much less Internet access - but I'll try to get to it soon.

Please help i’ve tried everything else

Hello is there any ethical hacker out there or at least one who could help me with my current situation. I own a Nokia 8 which I bought last year. My error is that I immediately placed the sd card of my old phone samsung j7 to the newly purchased phone not knowing it has a virus, I noticed my old phone doing crazy things when I factory reset it. Since it is rooted, the virus seemed to have taken hold of all system apps and has been updating itself and i recently noticed something fishy with my nokia 8, I tried chatting with support before but they just dismissed it. What I did exactly was to delete the folders that keep reproducing on the files folder of my nokia 8 it contained about 6 gb before and as I kept deleting it, I noticed that all my Photos 40 GB to be exact became 23gb and as i kept deleting the 1 kb files in the file folder I also deleted a DCIM folder but I think it was not thre DCIM for pictures since it was placed in unknown folders. I tried all kinds of recovery even windows based but it seems like there was nothing deleted as it would have been scanned, and it keeps saying that I need to root it. I don’t want to root it because I might give unlimited power to the hacker or to whatever virus is doing this. Please I need help desperately thanks. All my Photos and files were deleted.

So, you have described your problem. But you did not tell nothin about what exactly you want to someone helped you with. What kind of help you are expect from the community? To repare your data? Or to kill the virus? Or maybe to cure the phone? The best way in your situation is Factory reset for phone (without SD-card) and formatting the SD-card by any tool or even Windows formatting function. If the data is need to be repared try to format the card firstly, than scan it by the R-studio or similar software for search deleted files. Most of the tools of this kind have an options to scan for the concret data like the photos, music etc. Use this option to find all kinds of images and repare it to your hard drive. As I understood from your post you have the PC virus lives at your card? Or it is Android malware? Its very difficult to help you remotely. Nobody knows what exactly happened with your card and with your phone. If the data is not very imortant for you just format the card and the phone (reset it to factory defaults) and scan your PC for viruses for more sureness.

I removed my sd card. All my photos, videos and files are in the phone memory. I want to recover at least all the photos and videos. I have not deleted them I only deleted the files in the files folder. I’m still unsure of what happened either there as a virus or my phone was hacked since it was tampered with. I guess people were interested in deleting my recordings and photos or proof

You completely confused me. Put your card into card-reader and copy all data to PC. Then scan the card for deleted files without filter. Recover all of them to hard drive then sort recovered files which are needed and which are not. Then format the card by any formatting tool. Copy all important data from your phone to PC to safe place and do factory reset on the phone. It will destroy all data including the possible virus or whatever it was. Do not store the important data on the mobile. Do not forget to remove google account before doing factory reset, because the first start after the reset will tell that the phone is locked to account and will ask to enter login/password. If the account will be romoved before the reset you`ll be proposed to setup the mobile as a new one - like you just bought it. That`s all I can to advice to you.

I’m sorry, i meant to say. That my photos and videos are in the phone memory not in the sd card. What I think the virus did is to hide all my photos. My lock screen images, gboard images, and wallpaper is still there which means the photos were not deleted.

As I said - use the card-reader to explore the files on your card. Enable "Show hidden files" in Explorer to see all of data of the card. You will be able to copy files to PC even if the status is "hidden". Then uncheck attribute hidden in fole properties on eache file. Then format your card as mentioned above.
You can do the same except the formatting with the phone memory. I mean copy important files from phone to PC and "unhide" them.
Make the batch file with .cmd extention with this text:
attrib -S -H /D /S
Save it to folder containing your hidden files and execute it. It will unhide all the files in folder and you will see them in Explorer

It`s probably your PC is contaminated by virus that makes your files hidden, so scan it by antivirus with latest bases.

The problem is that the virus/hijacker has manged to hide it all. It shows as blank. All of my files even my music, only apps are working , but not doing their part. I checked with Sophos Security ( antivirus installed) that most of stock and even pre-installed apps have been modified like for example google play services : other permissions
-android.permission.USE_CREDENTIALS - no description

I have about 30 other permissions which are bothersome.

I said above that you can explore your files via USB cable from PC, if there no files are visible, so you can to try to enable show hidden files in options of folder: Control Panel->Explorer parameters (it may be another name in English, I`m Russian and use a Russian locale in Windows)->View-> in the end of list see check-box "Show hidden files, folders and disks". Now you must be able to see hidden files in phone memory. Copy all of them to you PC and do the script as mentioned above. put it to folder with the hidden files and run it. It will unhide all files in the folder. You can do th same with the files from SD card. Now your data is OK. After all procedures you can format the card and reset your mobile to factory reset - it will delete all possible virus or whatever it was and your phone will work well as it must to. SD card wil be clear after formatting and apps will save and use their data properly. Use it as usual. Keep your data on PC - this is much more safe then mobile.
upd.
Run Notepad copy this text
attrib -S -H /D /S
paste it to Notepad, save the file unhide.cmd, for example - it is simple Windows command line script that cleans files attributes like "hidden" "system" or "read only".

Okay I will try it tomorrow I just read your post. Thanks I will update the result. By the way do I need to enable usb debugging?

No, you don`t. Connect as a storage "MTP". Good luck.

Oh. I don’t know what happened. Malwarebytes says the ransomware protection was turned off and I have the old virus I had before, I don’t know if the virus I have was the one from the Phone, which seems to be cross-platform already. Is it okay to do the show hidden files or should I format my computer first. This is so frustrating.

What is Malwarebyte? Do "Show hiddin files". You need to backup your media, right? Do it. Media files does not victim for viruses. They are probably clean. Anyway copy files if it possible.
