Developer Unlock troubles

I have a Lumia 620 with Lumia Cyan + the latest developer preview update and I recently factory reset it. Today I tried developer unlocking it, and it came up with the "IpOverUsbSvc" error. I restarted my computer and got the same error, so I uninstalled and reinstalled the drivers and restarted, still same error. I uninstalled the lite 8.1 SDK (I'm on Windows 7), reinstalled it then rebooted, and still got the same error. Does anyone know how I can fix this?
edit: I searched already if you're just planning on saying that.
I seem to have the same issue on two other devices. Apparently you need files from the 8.1 Emulator Update 1 ISO. I have the Visual Studio 2013 with both Update 3 and the emulator update installed, but I too have the same error. Try running the 8.1 Power Tools update on your phone and see if it will actually give you an error code.

Thanks, probably had something to do with it being on update 1, but I managed to get it unlocked with that weird Chinese app mentioned in another thread.

Can't upgrade HiSuite to 1.8.10.2806

Hello
Been fighting this problem for days now. Tried uninstalling, reinstalling no change.
PC runs 64-bit Windows 7 Home Premium SP1
Current HiSuite version installed is 1.8.10.2706
It keeps telling there is a newer version of HiSuite - 1.8.10.2806
When i agree to download it, it downloads it, runs and when installation is complete version stays the same - 1.8.10.2706
Judging by the file name it downloads, it should be right version but ... i am at loss what to do.
On HuaWei site latest version download is 1.8.10.26.06
Of course i downloaded it as well - it also wants to upgrade to 28.06, with the same results.
Anyone of you have ran into this issue?

Try to uninstall Hisuite and after remove (if present) the folder where the program was installed; then connect the phone with usb in Hisuite mode and start the installer that appears when you connect the phone.. now it should start download the latest version... my hisuite version is 1.8.10.2806

Exactly this I wanted to say
Thanks!
I uninstalled HiSuite, then removed all folders. Found out that there is one folder with Huawei service still running even after removal of HiSuite!
I suspected this was the culprit.
Killed this service and removed the folder.
After that i downloaded 1.8.10.2606 from the web and installed. On first run it downloaded 1.8.10.2806 itself (it showed download progress indicator) and installed it successfully.
Thank you all!

[Q] How to delete/remove downloaded update data

Looking to find a way to delete the update data for w10TP. Accidentally hit the download button when trying to click details to see the version that the update was trying to install. IT says i have till june 14th by 3am or it will install automatically.
IS there anyway to remove the data before it forces the update without hard resetting?Or is there a way to load up the internal storage so that the update can install even though has been downloaded?
I have a lumia 1520, and most tools i have to the root tool app installed.
Checked and searched google and the forum but couldn't find an answer.
Any help at all would be appreciated greatly. Or if anyone knows if that automatic install really happens?
Just don't,want,to,have to hard reset if don't have to. Trying not to loose some apps no longer published in the windows store.

LUMIA 925 ROOTED - Customization possibilities

Hello there,
I have questions about my rooted Lumia 925.
I bought it used, with the latest Firmware. Then I loaded up the correct Firmware with Windows Device Recovery Tool, then I unlocked the bootloader, and now I have root access.
I wanted to load up Win10, I haven't made yet, as my phone works fine.
My very 1st question is: IF I'll be successfull with the OS-update, will I lose the root access later on?
I know I could flash the phone back to Win 8.1 but actually the very annoying part is to customize again the device.
Moreover I have a huge problem with "Back-up" built-in function of my WinPhone. I NEVER had a successful back-up of app, settings and SMS... Fortunately my contatcs are secured as they are synced with my account, but that's all.
This bring me to the 2nd question:
ANYONE HAS N IDEA HOW TO FIX THE BACKUP PROBLEM?! ... my phone backs-up pictures and Video on OneDrive BUT NOT the Apps and Settings and SMS...
I got this idea: since I have no chance to back-up my data and settings, what IF make a Back-up of all partitions let's say once a week, following this thread https://forum.xda-developers.com/nokia-lumia-520/development/make-backup-windows-phoneguide-t3628612 or using WPInternals, do I keep my contatcs/sms/settings/apps and so on ?!?
Anyone can confirm this ?
3rd question concerns UPDATE.
since i loaded the firmware 3051.50009.1424.0010 I keep getting this annoying message "there is a critical update, do you want to download it?" If I press on "agree" the phone gets the Firmware 3051.50009.1451.1011 . Then I lose all superuser rights... I tested it.
Is there a way to DISABLE the update completely? Like on Windows Desktop ?!?!
I have to say I got lucky here.
WPINTERNALS warns :
Updating your phone
After you unlocked the bootloader or enabled Root Access, you MUST disable Windows Updates on your phone. Future updates may corrupt the SecureBoot modifications and your phone may not boot anymore.
After you unlocked the bootloader or enabled Root Access, you can only update your Windows Phone by flashing a new Custom ROM which is based on the latest OS version.
Well I did this:
With "ROOT ACCESS ACTIVED" I pressed on agree to get the critical update. The updated failed. The Package has been downloaded but could not be applied (ERROR 800..... don't remember the error-code)
With "ROOT ACCESS DISABLED" the update has been made w/o errors.. and I had for a while the 3051.50009.1451.1011 ... no bootloader corruption !!! , then switched back to 3051.50009.1424.0010 to keep root access.
BUT can I get rid completely of this annoying message about the UPDATE !??!?! I do not want to challenge my luck again.
OR can I block completely the Win-Update process ?!?
OR can I force the phone to check on 127.0.0.1 instead of checking the Microsoft servers thorugh a registry modification?!?
OR could I modify the HOST file instead !? If I would know the server name, I could try to limit the contact by adding 1 line to the HOST file, something like: 127.0.0.1 windowsupdate.microsoft.com !?
Would this work!?
3rd question: I searched long about this... it seems nobody knows... well I try and ask it directly: is there any way to change the GUI ?
I want to know IF / HOW throug registry
1) I can change the tiles fill-colors using custom HEX or RGB format,
2) I can tiles outline/symbols color instead of using the annoying WHITE using HEX or RGB values.. (my idea is to make a "total-black" GUI with darkgrey symbols... )
3) If I can change phone FONTS (dream)
4th question:
My phone is branded Vodafone (as it has 32GB memory) I would like to unbrand it and use the nice computer Boor Screen "Energy Star" . I read I have to make actually a Custom-ROM since the splash-screen is part of the firmware. OK. So following WPINTERNALS, I can select a source FFU-file and extract the EFIESP partition and MainOS partition.
WPINTERNALS says: "You can enable Root Access on these partitions"
Well HOW?
If they are not on the phone how can I enable the root access and how can can I customize MainOS if it is on my Desktop Hard-Drive ?!?
I'm sure I do need another tool for that... Any hint for me please?! Anybody?
Then ok... "After you have unlocked the bootloader of the phone, you can flash the custom ROM to the phone". that's easy.
Last question, just curiosity: is there a SHELL in Win 8.1 mobile ?!
It wuold be nice to have sometime a hack-library divided by phone sometime.... hope that XDA mods will think about it.
With WPINTERNALS for WinPhones there is a fully new world to discover.
Thanks everyone for your answers.
In case you decide to reply, please be kind... since I cannot read your mind nor I have any "palantir" nor divination skills, try to explain things esaly.... e.g. as you would explain them to your dog.... :good:
Have unlocked bootloader and rooted old Nokia lumia 925 through WPINTERNALS... As I did not have many apps or games on it I would like to install some but now am stuck for how to get apps to phone or even is there a custom rom I can flash to it?...any help please..
PS: Phone is on windows 8.1 CYAN, I have made a full backup to pc with WPINTERNALS just in case anything goes wrong/
