keep the backup is a safety
If you have froyo on your phone, only solution: (or samsung for repair)
http://perso.numericable.fr/helroz/Perso/repair_nv_data.zip
this method give informations in your bad nv_data.bin (imei, Model, product code) and insert this in a new nv_data.bin (sim unlocked).
After this new nv_data.bin (sim unlocked with your informations) is inserted in your phone, at restart, your phone create nv_data.bin.md5 and batch file create .nv_data.bak and .nv_data.bak.md5 and save your new efs folder.
Your phone is unlocked
It's possible to made this on froyo but not advised and not really tested (I repair codes at the same time but at the first start froyo change codes by FFFFFFFF)
Thanks to Mikiya on Frandroid to made "Reparation_nv_data.jar" at my demand
Thanks to vnamee for detailled instructions:
Just did this on my phone and it works great. The SGS unlock tool gave me a number that did not work no matter what firmware I used. Here are the steps to perform the unlock.
You will need root and busybox and something to edit the root, such as Root Explorer or ADB. You will need Java on your PC as well.
1) Copy the EFS folder with Root Explorer or ADB to back up
2) In /efs, delete:
nv_data.bin.md5
.nv_data.bak
.nv_data.bak.md5
nv_data.JPC (you may not have this)
nv_data.JPC.md5 (you may not have this)
.nv2.bak
.nv2.bak.md5
3) Reboot your phone and navigate to /efs to see if nv_data.bin.md5 is created. If it is, you are good to go. If you go there right after the phone boots, it may not have been created yet.
4) Put your phone in USB debug mode and connect via USB to computer.
5) Run step 2.bat (this will extract nv_data.bin to your computer)
6) Run reparation_nv_data.jar (I guess you just enter any 8 digit number in the boxes that will be your unlock code. I had entered '00000000' and SGS unlock couldn't find anything afterward, so I'm not sure if this number will be needed at any point in the future. This will edit the nv_data.bin).
7) Run Step 4.bat (this will upload the files to your phone. Make sure the phone is on and when you run it, make sure to keep pressing 'allow' so the program has root access to push the files to your root).
8) After this is done, you can answer 'n' if there were no errors and it should reboot your phone. Phone should be unlocked.
Phone must have nv_data in /efs folder, with all firmware, if at start you don't have nv_data, phone create it, but generic with no imei.

This method helped me unlock my phone when the sgs unlocker failed to extract the unlock code. It kept saying "unlock codek". The above method maybe a lilttle tricky for beginners, first back up your efs folder and try it.

Ok so here is my question I didn't backup my Blob files before my botloader became corrupted but I do have. Full twrp backups. My question is there a way to extract the Blob files needed to access nvflash or is there a way simulate on virtual device or something using my device using my backup and get wheelie that way.
Sup XDA,
So i want to dual boot my phone (S5 duos) using dual boot patcher but i am getting problems
My problem: when flashing the patched rom i will get an error of system not being read able file system.
Firstly (for duos users) :
If you patch a rom for dual booting you might get an error 7
The problem is that klteduos is not a supported device by dual boot patcher but
there is cheeky way to get around that...if u still get the error then your device id is klte just use the original patched file
Lets get into it:
Disclaimer : I am not responsible for any damage to the phone.
Ok so first u will need to move the pached rom file to your computer.
Then you have to extract it.
Then open the folder "multiboot" you will find three file find the one with updater something like that(it will have # in the starting of most of the lines use notepad ++)
Open that file you will find a list of devices under that there is a line without # instead of klte change it to klteduos
Just put the files back in a zip archive and you are done.
i am trying remount thing if it works i will edit
i as installing aroma rom so inapp installation didnt work, asked to do it on recovery when installing on recovery it didnt work either
Hi,
So many of us are not happy with the oreo rom of Honor 8 Pro (C675). Those who looking forward to downgrade from Oreo to nougat just follow the steps. (This method is tested and is working. I just finished downgrading and is working perfectly fine. I just want to share this method with you guys. Also this i my first post in the forum. Some steps have been copied from a previous post by xfact)
Things you might need :-
>>A computer
>>At least 8GB memory card.
>>An unlocked bootloader. (you can relock it later)
>>Download the necessary files here :- [The Dload file was previously shared in this forum by xfact, but the link is not working now. Fortunately, I downloaded the file while it was available and I am providing the link to the google drive backup.]
REMOVE THE *** IN BETWEEN THE URL'S
(a) Dload File --- https***://***drive.google.com/open?id=1ZpOoPZ3dEn86lEh0PwlZP0W2LShM-BnT
(b) Recovery File --- https***://***drive.google.com/file/d/1qiP4k5HtJ3VR5l9ac8FnpxrwryIxu-pV/view?usp=sharing
(c) ADB platform tools --- https***://***drive.google.com/open?id=1vu-awRNjH3B9os5MuHGSlu-ca6zNv10V
>>Unzip the above-mentioned Dload file, then go to the folder, then software>dload folder and unzip the 'SDupdate_Package.tar.gz' with 7-Zip. It will extract another archived file called 'SDupdate_Package.tar'. Now unzip that too with 7-Zip and you will get a folder called 'dload' again.
>>Now take an SD card with at least 8 Gb of space, format it to exFAT. Paste the last 'dload' folder and all its contents at the root directory of that SD card. Put it into your phone.
>>To unlock the bootloader, just log into---- https***://***bit.ly/2uEEvdj
This is their chinese website, use translator in chrome to read in english.
Fill up the necessary details and you will get an unlock code for your device.
>>Follow the necessary steps to unlock your bootloader from here :- https***://***bit.ly/2uEM1F8
>>After unlocking the bootloader, your phone will be factory reset. When the phone boots up again, go to settings and enable USB Debugging from devoloper options.
>>Unzip the platform tools zip file and copy the Recovery file into that folder.( you have to unzip the platform tools file while unlocking the bootloader. Just copy the recovery image to that folder)
>>Holding the SHIFT key, right click any empty spaces in the folder and from the menu that appears, select "Open command window here"
>>Connect your handset. Ensure USB debugging prompt appeared as seen in the bootloader unlocking tutorial.
>>In the command window type the following commands :-
1. adb devices
(this is to make sure your device is connected properly)
2.adb reboot bootloader
(to put your device into fastboot mode)
3.fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk DUK-RECOVERY_RAMDISK_NoCheck.img
(to flash the recovery image)
4. fastboot reboot
>>When the device boots up, go to the dialer, type *#*#2846579#*#*
->Click on Software Upgrade -> SDcard upgrade->confirm.
Your phone will recognise the memory card with dload file in it. It will flash the rom. It will get stuck at 99% and shows error. Dont worry, just select reboot system option that appears on the screen.
You will be on the Nougat Rom
To relock the bootloader--
>>Again you have to enable USB debugging from devoloper options>>open command window from the platform tools folder>> execute the commands 1 and 2.
Then type the following command :-
fastboot oem relock *unlock key*
(replace *unlock key* with your unlock key used for bootloader unlock)
YOUR DEVICE WILL BE ON NOUGAT ROM WITH LOCKED BOOTLOADER
As this is my first post, kindly ignore the errors. Sorry if this lengthy post made any confusion. Hope this is helpful to all of you.

can I get recovery image file please
First, to clarify, the last time I rooted anything was a Galaxy S3 back in the day. I'm by no means an expert, I just figured I'd help out folks like me that haven't touched all these new tools, well, ever.
Just did this myself earlier today attempted to get Magisk root, but alas, I got stuck in a boot loop. Luckily I had muddled through getting the image first, otherwise I'd still be stuck in said boot loop. I figured I'd post this for anyone else trying to root these things just to make sure you have a backup you can trust (I generally don't trust rando images that folks post online). All of the instructions below are assuming you're on Windows 10 and using PowerShell just because that's the default these days. Without further adieu.
Download ADB/fastboot (on your Windows machine)
I downloaded adb/fastboot from google directly: https://developer.android.com/studio/releases/platform-tools
Just extract and browse to the platform-tools directory in Windows Explorer until you can see adb.exe and a bunch of other tools
Download the latest SP Flash Tool
I just grabbed it from here: https://spflashtools.com/
Please let me know if there's an "official" place to find SP Flash Tool, cause everything surrounding all the download sites seems a bit sus...
Enable USB Debugging (on the tablet)
Go to settings -> About tablet
Tap the Build number 10 times (until debugging mode unlocks)
Hit back and go to System
Click Advanced and then Developer Options
Enable USB Debugger
I also enabled OEM unlocking because the whole point of this is for me to run either AOSP or Lineage someday. I honestly don't know if unlocking the bootloader is needed for dumping your own images, but I highly suspect it's not.
Plug the tablet into your computer
You'll likely see a prompt on your tablet about allowing your computer to debug your tablet. I just checked the box and hit accept so I wouldn't see it again.
Get your scatter file (on your Windows machine)
I tried several things to get the scatter file (I guess this is like a partition table based on the contents I saw) but in the end, by far the easiest way was to just download the scatter file from the file system.
In the Windows Explorer window from before (platform-tools), hold down shift while left clicking and click on Open PowerShell window here
Now type the following to get a shell on your:
.\adb.exe shell
This will get you into the shell environment. Now type the following to verify your scatter file is there:
ls -al /system/data/misc/
In here you should see something like:
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 13893 2008-12-31 19:00 MT8168_Android_scatter.txt
Now that we have the name, just type exit to get out of the shell
Download the scatter file
.\adb.exe pull /system/data/misc/MT8168_Android_scatter.txt
Open up the scatter file in your favorite text editor (for me, Notepad++)
Now you can see the partition layout, offsets, etc, etc
Dump your image(s) (on your Windows machine)
Now open SP Flash Tool (flash_tool.exe)
On the Download tab, make sure the Download-Agent is MTK_AllInOne_DA.bin
Now click Choose for the Scatter-loading file and browse to the scatter file you just downloaded
This should be in your platform-tools folder unless you moved it
Once the scatter file is loaded, the partition table should fill up with a bunch of partitions
Click on the Readback tab
Click Add
Double-click on the new entry
Navigate to where you want to save your image, and give it a name (in this case I'm starting with boot.img)
Remember how you opened the scatter file in a text editor? Search in the scatter file for boot.img
Make sure the region matches (should be EMMC_USER) between the scatter file and SP Flash Tool
Copy/paste the value for start_addr in the scatter file to Start Address in SP Flash Tool
Copy/paste the value for partition_size in the scatter file to Length in SP Flash Tool
Now do the same thing for recovery.img and any other images you'd like
If you want a full ROM backup, name the file something like ROM_0, then use Start Address of 0x0 and length as the start_addr for the second-to-last entry in the scatter file (in my case, it was 0xc1a80000, just make sure it doesn't start with f's)
Note: I don't know for sure if this is accurate or not, I'm still playing with it, but so far it appears to be. Probably?
Poking around in WwR MTK 2.51, it looks like for this particular device (100011885) I wanted a total dump of 0x73A000000. It looks like this number is derived from the first 8Mb of the EMMC_USER dump, so I'm not sure of an easier way than throwing WwR MTK at it for the moment.
Once you've got all the entries for what you'd like to dump, make sure to disconnect the tablet from your computer and power it off
Now click on Download in SP Flash tool
Once things grey out, then plug the tablet in. After a few seconds, you'll see the images start dumping.
Congrats, you have a boot.img (and whatever other images you wanted). Like I said, from here I tried using Magisk to patch the boot file, but when I flashed it in fastboot, after enabling OEM unlocking in Developer Options, it just kept popping up the initial Onn graphic along with the Orange State warning without getting to the "fancy" Onn graphic and the rest of the boot process. I was able to flash the original boot.img back and it once again booted properly again.
Also, for anyone interested, I've posted my dumped files for the 100011885 in my google drive: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/17LtLtjKg4JJU9EJdIXPsyNjen0H-ilMX?usp=sharing
Maybe someone will have pity on me and figure out why Magisk isn't working?
Whenever I get a moment, I'll dump my 100003562 as well.
First, thanks a ton for this. I have been trying to pull a full system dump since I bought the tablet and had resorted to single pulls by name(very long and involved) I don't know if this will work for you, but on both of my 7 inch Gen 2 tablets, I just sideloaded Magisk Manager and then opened it (this was after unlocking the tablet) When I first opened MM it just said it needed to download some additional files for my environment. I clicked okay, it downloaded and installed the additional files. Once it rebooted, I open MM again and clicked install Magisk. On the next screen, I clicked direct install and let it do it's thing. After rebooting, root checker showed I had root, but I still can't get it to pass safetyNet. Root access does work as I have installed a few modules and busy box.
