I'm facing a problem that I am unable to solve for a while. I need to read a KMN5X000ZM-B209 EMMC from a Nokia Lumia Windows 8 phone, and so far I have been unable to do so. The EMMC contains vital data that I cannot afford to loose.
I have purchased both the Easy JTAG Box and the Advance Box. I have seen this exact EMMC type being mentioned in the 12.40 update for Advance Box, but I have been unable to read it yet. I received a wiring diagram for the EMMC in another topic, although I have not been able to verify it, and had a specialist do the soldering work to connect the EMMC. So far, without success. I am either getting 0x5E5E5E responses from the ATF Box, and a general error message from the Easy JTAG Box.
I have contacted the shop and the company of the Advance Box, but they haven't responded to my e-mails asking for any paid service anywhere in the world to make this work. So all I'm stuck with is a bunch of expensive hardware, no manual, no clear error message, and no support from both the shop and the creators.
If anyone has a fail-safe method to read the full EMMC, without any risk of damaging it, I am willing to pay good money. In fact, I am flat out offering $1000 right now to the person or company that can prove to me that they can safely do it, and of course after receiving the full EMMC dump.
I live in The Netherlands, but I am willing to travel anywhere, as long as success can be guaranteed. If the software settings are to be checked, I can do video chat (Skype or otherwise) and will also pay for your help if any significant progress is made. If I need different hardware, different software or different wiring of the EMMC that can also be arranged.
As you can read above, I am quite desperate for a solution at this point. If you can help me, or know someone who can, please respond to this post or in a PM.
Thank you!

I rang up trying to get a second hand handset (Sony k800i) SIM unlocked, cos i dont have a cable for it.
they said i would need to know the number of the sim that activated the phone to determine whether it had $80 of recharge or 6months use (which it has had both, but not on the original sim).
This is fine except i have no idea who was original activator. it is essentially now unfindoutable.
after explaining this to the girl (whom i assume was not in a call centre on this continent) 5 times, she repeated that i had to find it several more times, to which point i just hung up, because she was not willing to accomodate that i could not do it.
does anyone have a work around for this? (aside from spending money on a cable or on the online unlockers, i.e. get optus to come to the party?)
Cheers,
With my experience (used to be a supervisor in a call center), I handled several accounts (telecommunications, gaming console and some technical account) what they usually do is give you an unlock code if you are the original owner of the phone, but if not they will keep on asking you some information that you "really" don't know just like that girl asking you. For the reason "security purposes", they are thinking like you stole the phone or some what like that. They have the unlock code for that but they just won't give it to you. With samsung phones, it goes like this...if you got a second hand phone from someone and it is locked with..let's say verizon...and you want to use it with AT&T..first you have to call verizon to ask for their permission so you can use their phone with a different network, if you are lucky enough they'll give it to you and they'll advise you to call the manufacturer of the phone so you can have the rest of the unlock code. When you call the manufacturer of the phone, they'll ask you if verizon gave you any unlock codes and if you do have they'll give you the rest. Well, that's how it works with samsung. I am not particular with SE. Here's the thing man, if you think that their customer service is from a call center, never hang up the phone, stay on the line as long as you can, if you stay longer let's say more than an hour and keeps on insisting, that agent will give up on you, one of the reason is that in a call center they have this what they called "AHT..average handling time..etc" of course if differs defending on the account that they are handling so for example that girl is allowed to talk to you and resolved your issue in anyway (as in anyway like brush you off) within 8mins and you stayed longer than 8mins that will ruin her AHT, her score for that day, she will fail her daily AHT, weekly AHT, monthly AHT and so on and she might lose her job. So to make it short since I am explaining it too long already and since you want some other ways to unlock the phone by not paying online unlockers and buying a data cable just to unlock it..just stay on the phone longer, as long as you can, repeat everything but if she still refuses to help you ask for a supervisor/tier 2/level 2 wahtsoever ...she will say "my supervisor will tell you the same thing"..tell her to get lost and still insist for a supervisor/tier 2/level 2 wahtsoever. If you were able to talk to a supervisor then that might resolve that. But if that supervisor is as a**h**e as the agent then you're doom, no way to unlock you SE for free but to buy a data cable or have it unlock online. Whew...in the other hand I am a good supervisor and since I am a good one let me see what I can do to help you out, ok? PM me the SN, IMEI or CDA of that phone and let me see if I can still contact my old folks.

my friend emailed me this sites, try to check this out but still you need a cable

well my friend said unlock codes does not work on all phones. some phone needs to be unlock via a software some just codes. k800i needs a software and of course a cable and he said you need a K800i.mbn firware etc...

try this..maybe...you might find the original activator of that phone...
>*<<*<*
Where < or > are directions on the joystick, and * is the bottom left hand button on the keypad.
Cheers for your indepth response. i knew that it could be done, and i told her, just like you say, she repeated the script.
i had a look in the phone system menu (<*..<*) but not sure where to see how / when it was activated?
the phones IMEI is **
Network simlock is at setting 4, this obviously means locked, but does it mean anything else? is there some sort of code level list?
Optus customer service is crap at best, **** at worst....
Some how they manage to be worse than other fine outfits like dodo
the IMEI is changed but i don't know why!
the original IMEI is 35175xxxxxxxxxx but now 004900xxxxxx0000.
WHO can tell me [email protected]@
now i can't download the Apps successfully from Android Market.
when i click the apps, they will just present "start downloading..."
yet, it won't install the apps.
i just back home from samsung customer service centre.
the staff told me that i was changed the software of the main board of the phone.
if i wanna fix the phone, i need to pay (2000 hong kong dollars ~ 255 US dollars) to change the main board and to wait more than one month.
WHO can really help me!!!
I don't want to pay.so expensive!!
Can I fix the problem??
i need your hands!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Did you install Froyo?
Nothing you can do. However, if you only ever used kies for updates, they shouldn't be able to do that. But your phone is under warranty, so the charge is a bit funny (there might be a charge, but it shouldn't cost THAT much)
He most likely installed froyo beta, do a search as theres a few threads and fixes for it.

IMEI is changed so the warranty will cancel automatically.
The only time i've seen when people got their IMEI switched is when they installed the leaked ROMs from Korea
if you didn't do it, then some body else did, or your got might have been swapped when you didn't noticed or something along the line
the IMEI doesn't change on its own, there is no download able android market software that can do that, as it's againts the law to begin with, and 2 it voids the warranty, and 3 you can be charged of criminal theft for cloning somebody else IMEI etc, etc
so yeah, thes no way that was done via download able software
it had to be plugged in to a computer usin Odin or something along the line, or maybe Jtagged to be able to change that sort of thing
Did you buy the phone from some body else?
Just wanted to let those who have accidentally (fully)bricked their phone, like I did, know that they are repairable with the jtag methood. So instead of throwing them away a jtag is a better option.
I damaged my bootloader whilst installing rspl/hspl, the information that I was following was unclear and I to inpatiant to read it carefully. Phone was still working though after that. Few weeks later I bricked it compleatly whilst flashing the firmware, hoping to fix the broken spl.
I couldn't find anyone in my country that has a Riff box, so I just ordered one for my self. There are some skills needed, but it's fairly easy. The Riff-box flashed the phone with a standard radio and working spl, and after that I could install a Rom of my choosing. Everything is working perfectly again. The riff box can also unlock the phone and make it "super Cid" so it will accept any Rom. Even change the IMEI number, not that theres anything to gain from that.
Im not selling this box or advertising. Just wanted do let those with fully bricked phones know, that it's not compleatly over
I can also share my experiance with the Jtag, if anyone is having trouble with it. I had some troubles at first, but they all got solved.
i have HD7 with same problem,what can i do? not connected with usb on boot loader
If You have completly damaged bootloader, only JTAG can help You.
I think We shoul make some sticked thread where anyone can find someone with JTAG device in near place. What do You think abut it?
Hoping this isn't my only option, but if it is, is there anyone willing to fix mine for a nominal fee? I'm really just trying to get the darn thing working and sim unlocked so I can sell it and it is bootlooping in USB host mode...

You need a Jtag Flasher .. (like Riff mentioned above)
Dissemble the phone and solder the Jtag pins
the pinout for HD7 can be found by searching google for HTC HD7 Jtag (image search helps better)
If you cant get a Jtag Flasher or If you dont have the skill to open and solder Jtag wires .. you need to take it to a service shop for repair

If your bootloader is working then you dont need riff (for sim unlock I dont know)
you should be able to flash it with a new rom to get it fixed.
But if the bootloader is broken, hard reset doesnt work and usb host mode wont work either then I think the riff jtag option is the best solution. It will certanly sim unlock the device. But if it's the T-mobile usa version, I wouldn't want to use it on any othe network, because of their special 3G frequency. (I could be wrong) The phone will then only have 2G speed or of course WiFi at home.
If you are besed in USA, then this service could do it for you.
http://mobiletechvideos.mybigcommerce.com/htc-hd7-jtag-brick-repair/
their price is $40 plus shipping. (riff box costs $150).
I dont know them, only found them with google when I was deciding what to do about my phone.
And thought their website looked legit.
Sounds nice.
I don't want to buy a Riffbox myself, so I'm wondering... anyone in the north of sweden got one that could help? For a fee ofcourse.
hello ALL!
i am an AVID android user, and have been using xda for YEARS, even contributed many things to this site, in way of help, mods, and other things, never built roms but worked closely as a tester with some big developers.
recently while riding my bike home from work, i saw a phone scattered in pieces down the street. i picked up all pieces and put back together when i got home, and surprisingly it turned on with no issue, didn't even need to charge battery.
so now, i cannot access it because it has a pin passcode(ive tried all your "run of the mill ones" Plus after a few guesses and then battery dying, , it is NOW telling me I HAVE to WAIT 2680 MINUTES until next attempt....seriously?!?! 2680 MINUTES?!?! THATS NEARLY TWO DAYS!!!!!!
anyways
i need someones help here, i am TRYING to return this device to it's owner, but without a valid passcode to enter, i cannot get into their contacts and try to call anyone they might know in order to return the device.
so if ANYONE knows of a toolkit, or command line thing i can do/use in order to remove/change this pin lock, i would be very grateful.
i DONT want to wipe the device and end up without ANY info on the owner or even anything that might help me return it.
ANY IDEAS ???
I HAD SEEN MENTION OF WINDOWS PHONE RECOVERY KIT
would THAT be useful in this situation?
or basically am i stuck with resetting the phone and HOPING something is left on sdcard that will have info as to the owner of device???

You could try to put the SIM in an other phone, he might have contacts stored on his SIM.
Also same thing with the SD Card but doubt there'll be anything helpful in there.
On WP unfortunately there is no way to remove the lock without doing a hard reset which will wipe everything except the SD Card and contacts on the SIM so it's the same as inserting the SD and SIM in an other phone, better not hard reset it so the owner doesn't loose all he has on there.
I like how you use the word "unfortunately" about there being no way to bypass the one crucial security feature of the phone... The lock screen is there for a reason! If you'd tried messing with my phone that way, it would already have wiped itself.
To the OP, leave it powered on and connected to the Internet, and the owner will be able to find it eventually. The "my Windows Phone" (or whatever it's called now) website allows the owner to get the phone's GPS location, and also to display a message (such as "please email me at <this address> if you found my phone!") on the screen. If they never come for it, then... free phone, I guess? I'm not usually a fan of "finders keepers" but there's no excuse for a WP owner not even trying the existing tools to get the phone back, if they want it back at all.
If you really want to go above and beyond the call of duty, I suppose you could check the SIM from the phone and see what carrier it's for, then call the carrier and see if they have any way to get in touch with the phone's owner...
This has likely long been resolved, but here's what I would do.
Take the SIM, put it in another phone. Check "about" to see what the phone number is. Call that number.
If you get an answer, there's your missing phone's owner with a new phone and SIM card. Let them know you found their phone. No answer, leave voicemail.

Yes you are correct, has been resolved, good tip though thank you, found owner and was told to keep device, they had gotten new one, they don't know how it ended up on side of street, but I ended up giving to someone I had worked with who was in need of an at&t device.
Thank you, and all others, for all assistance.
Ended up that the owner actually knew someone that I was working with at the time, small world huh, funny how it all worked out, was just happy to help everyone out in the end. Was just a funny circle of events that led to the device getting to who has it now.
Hello,
I cannot turn on my phone, the only screen I can get says: "System Software not authorized by Verizon Wireless has been found on your phone. Please turn off your phone and go to the nearest Verizon Wireless store for help." I went to the store and they didn't have any clue. I've read a few things online in these forums and checked system software examples but they were really technical and I wasn't sure what to make of them. I'm just trying to not lose everything that is on my phone.
Any and all help would be HUGELY appreciated, again I am absolutely clueless as to the technical workings of smart phones.
Thanks so much.
