(Q) Dump a ROM

Any way to dump a 8.1 rom off of a phone? Looking to get at the registry (all of it)
Hi,
Not that I know.
But you can e.g dump a 8.1 Nokia ROM findable on Nokia Care servers.
By cons, you can view the registry directly on phone, in installing WebServer Native Access xap.

[Q&A] How to backup WP8 system data to PC

Is there any way to backup all the data include system image and program data to my PC ? I remember there used to be a tool WPBackup developed by a XDA-Developers Group (CeesHeim, Football, Heathcliff74, HD2Owner, OndraSter, xboxmod, etc.) , I'v tried this tool and didn't work with WP8. I have wp8.1 SDK on my system and Nokia Care Suit 5.0.

That app was a WP7 app and It needs a fully unlocked WP7 ROM .
we have something like that for wp8 devices too developed by -W_O_L_F- but it needs an interop unlocked phone at least + capability unlock
so it's not possible to use it for LUMIA devices by you .

Thanks for your help, and if there is a way to unlock my lumia525 just like you said?( I have read this post and know that the hack only works for SAMSUNG phones currently.So maybe I could found another way to backup my data. ( ´_ゝ`)
What if I installed my apps in SD card and backup the data from the card? Is this possible?

There's no way at this time
But applications data will be recovered after you install them again
Most of your data and settings are stored in your OneDrive and you can simply recovery then if you hard reset your phone

No way of interop-Unlocking with Capabilities on 8.1 for Adblocking anymore?

All I ever wanted was to use an Adblocker for my Lumias similar to what Adaway does on my Nook HD+ tablets with CM11; therefore, I followed the download MixRadio from the store, and move it to SD card approach to Interop-unlock my Lumia 521 & 640; I was successful in executing the CustomWPSystem_0601.xap & vcREG_MIX_RADIO_bootstrap.xap which gave the Lumia Registry Editor, WPSystem Folders, etc. and (Supposed Interop-Unlock through the template settings); it's obviously not unlocked since I can't deploy AdBlocker_modded.xap (Adblocker hack which I found on this forum: [XAP] AdBlocker For Windows Phone 8.x+) without getting an "Error - 0x81030120" with the SDK 8.1 Deployment tool all the time. Is it no longer working? Is my computer bad? Am I not doing it correctly? If somebody can clarify a few things for me, that would be really cool. Thanks.

Can you install this xap "Talking Santa" ?

Link for Talking Santa: cdn.marketplacecontent.windowsphone.com/public/ca985855-b506-428a-bfd8-79d07ea6a8c3
I have the Nokia 630 and I get the error in Windows Phone Application Deployment (8.1):
"Error - The package does not contain the expected manifest file."
This game isn't in store anymore. I had it installed but did hard reset and lost it, before that I made a copy of the system folder:
D:\WPSystem\apps\WindowsApps\OutFit7Limited.TalkingSanta_2.4.0.0_arm__rmf98d2bjqpyp
Is there a way for me to just copy this copy and make the phone recognize the installation?
Please if you can install this in your Lumia, please tell me how. Maybe adjusting some file, maybe it's easy for anyone who knows. Thanks.

I renamed to appx but I still have the same error. Can you install this game without problems? If yes, please tell me what tools you are using. Thank you again.
to download file with name, add to link: ?downloadname=Talking Santa.appx
here is
http://cdn.marketplacecontent.windo...-79d07ea6a8c3?downloadname=Talking Santa.appx
and most important: did you developer unlock phone?
or put file on phone or SD card, open Store, tap three dots and select Install Local Apps

Thank you for your attention. My Nokia 630 is enable live interop / capability unlock and live full fs access, using vcREG v1.3, I can deploy xap, appx, etc, but in this specific case this appx talking Santa no deploy because occurs a error in Windows Phone Application Deployment 8.1 when I click to deploy: "Error - the package does not contain the expects manifest file" and if I copy the appx talking Santa to SD card and go to install local Apps, the "Talking Santa" don't disponible in store, it's appear in the list grayed impossible to select for install! I have tried in region United States, Spain, Brazil, etc...
My great question is, can you install this appx talking Santa in your mobile, this impossible for me. If you can install please confirm to me and how make the process of success installation. Thank you.
I not use 8.1 because use W10M. Install appx is much easier, just run on phone or deploy with browser or install with interop tools. Why not upgrade? I upgraded 920, 925, 530 to official W10M AU and all working great plus enabled largest paging file for virtual memory and phone "flying"
For me, cant install 'Talking Santa' in appx format purpose if i tranform it to appxbundle i can deploy it.

I have tested w10 previously, but it is very slow, Nokia 630 only 512mb ram.

Good! But how can I transform appx to appxbundle? I just tried to rename but I still have the same error. Can you teach us how this method of transformation is or post the corrected appxbundle to download? Thank you in advance.

with increased virtual memory (paged file) in registry editor, works much better...
also W10M is much optimized with every update than before, some apps still works slow but system works fine.

Interesting. But now I have installed Windows Insider and enabled fast insider, but updates to w10m no more appears in my settings> update of Mobile. When I first made it, I enabled Windows insider after rebooting the phone already appeared the update to w10m, but now it does not work, just shows that the phone is up to date. By the way, you were able to install this appx in w10m? Thanks.

update is possible if you change registry to identify device as supported for W10M update, for example Lumia 535, 640, 730/735, 830... after that install Upgrade Advisor from store and check for update with this app
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE - SYSTEM - Platform - DeviceTargetingInfo
here few devices, select which most similar to your device, and id device DualSim, use DS device info...
Lumia 830
PhoneManufacturer = NOKIA
PhoneManufacturerModelName = RM-984_1037
PhoneModelName = Lumia 830
PhoneHardwareVariant. = RM-984
Lumia 640 Dual SIM

Thank you very much for your explanations. Regarding the DualSim, the Nokia 630 is DualSim, I did not understand the part of the "DS device info". I will try later, although I am discouraged by the negative points I had while I tested earlier, the battery drains quickly and the system closes windows suddenly. Do you know what the user "titi66200" talked about transform appx into appxbundle? I wish I could install this game on my WP8.1, as I had it installed before hard reset. :crying:

in registry you change for DS lumia,
Lumia 640 Dual SIM
PhoneManufacturer = NOKIA
PhoneManufacturerModelName = RM-1077_1018
PhoneModelName = Lumia 640 DS
PhoneHardwareVariant. = RM-1077
few advice: insider not needed for upgrade, just use Upgrade Advisor app. after upgrade to 10586, upgrade again to 14393.953.
make hard reset when you done.
enable developer and portal device in phone settings - update and security
install Interop Tools ARM version https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=71000190&postcount=607 and make interop Unlock (in case not work, first enable Restore NDTKSvc, wait 30 sec, restart phone and now must work)
for change virtual memory
HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\Memory Management\
Value Name: PagingFiles
u:\pagefile.sys 256 256
change only 256 256 to value you want (first number is minimal, second is maximum virtual memory), for example:
u:\pagefile.sys 256 512
u:\pagefile.sys 512 512
u:\pagefile.sys 1024 1024
you can enter any value but watch how many memory phone have free. also dont change "u:\pagefile.sys" or add more than one row... restart phone when you done

Excellent tutorial! I'll try this and test to see how it goes. Thank you again!
PS: In case of emergency, is there still the possibility to go back to wp8.1?
dxdy, returning to talk about wp8.1, do you know a way I can copy my old apps folder for this game that I had installed, and make the phone recognize the game "Talking Santa" in list of apps installed? Thanks.

look, for appx, just download appx file from store, is easier and you have install file... you can search to download appx files here https://www.appx4fun.com/ or try download with this web page http://winphonehub-apps.appspot.com/
for XAP files is different because XAP files on store is encrypted, you must extract all files from Install folder on phone (\WP System\Apps\) and patch this file if you want install it...
