Hi there
Well, as we really need Interop Unlock for our Lumia phones, i decided to check this out myself.
As i already have ATF Box for a long time, i decided to buy JTAG activation and dolphin clip + lumia jigs, that i do not have to solder my phone.
Also i have ordered a Lumia 520 testing phone on ebay.
So, as the ATF Team made an awesome JTAG software update, i'm trying to interop unlock that Lumia 520 the hardware way, as just software seems to be too tough...
Well, what i did so far:
1. Freshly flashed Lumia 520 RM-914 with latest stock rom
2. Did the setup/beginning after turning it on for 1st time
3. developer unlocked it with SDK on PC
4. Made Full Dump with JTAG from dev-unlocked phone
5. Mounted MainOS partition of dump with program "OSFMount" (-->appears as Local harddisk example drive E: )
6.Loaded the SOFTWARE hive with regedit on PC from "E:\Windows\System32\config"
7. Edited the following values:
PortalUrlInt = http://127.0.0.1
PortalUrlProd = http://127.0.0.1
MaxUnsignedApp = 10003
8. unloaded SOFTWARE hive
9. unmounted dump-image
10. wrote image back via jtag
I thought it might be a good Idea to dev-unlock the phone before messing with the registry, to make sure "DeveloperUnlockState = 1" gets written the "legal" way, as the key is not available in registry before.
Maybe it's better to just modify an existing key, than adding a new one...
Well, long story short: The result is not totally satisfying.
After writing the modified image back to the EMMC, the phone is booting up, but i can NOT deploy homebrew apps that require interop unlock, like @GoodDayToDies "EnableAllSideloading.xap" for example.
But i can deploy "nomal" apps like @cpuguys "Toastlauncher" and @GoodDayToDies "Webserver"
The weird thing: If i check the reg-values via WebServer on the Phone, i can see my edited values.
So the changes ARE written to the phone. The phone just doesn't use them...
So, the good thing: phone is booting with modified rom :good:
But, the bad thing: Changes are not working.
EDIT:
SUCCESS!!!
After adding

"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
i could successfully sideload "EnableAllSideloading.xap"
After executing enableallsideloading i could sideload latest WPHTweaks build.
Now i have 3rd tile row enabled!
awesome!
Also member @myst02 is working on interop-unlocking the lumia phones. So we decided to make this a together-project.
See his achievements here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2713098&page=10 :good:

to be able to sideload EnableAllSideloading.xap you need to change following registry key:
Software\Microsoft\SecurityManager\CapabilityClasses
add: MultiSz String
name: ID_CAP_DEVELOPERUNLOCK_API
value: CAPABILITY_CLASS_THIRD_PARTY_APPLICATIONS
have fun.
I have found this during smurfing on the internet.
Dont know if this is something worth trying, but maybe it gives you some pointers or help.

Nice work :good:
so now , you can make a small bussines with this

I'm trying to deploy the bootstrap samsung app to the 520 this afternoon. If it works, i maybe can deploy the other apps.
If not, i'm trying to open that CAP by editing the Dump again and writing it back via JTAG.
We'll see, but i'm curious

Samsung Bootstrap uses some Samsung-specific DLLs as far as I know. This won't help you, tried this already on my Huawei Ascend W1. This won't work on your Lumia either I think. But its worth a try of course.
You'll have to edit the registry key I mentioned before to be able to sideload EnableAllSideloading.xap. You need to load the SOFTWARE file from Windows/System32/config again into your registry and edit following key. Maybe try using a registry editor on your phone before using the method you described above, but I don't think that this will work. So, you probably have no other choice than opening up your device again and edit the SOFTWARE reg-file. Then sideload EnableAllSideloading.xap and you'll be able to sideload pretty much everything you want.
Question for more experienced devs and hackers:
Is there a registry tweak or some settings anywhere else on the phone that we can access though JTAG and that allows us to boot the phone (Lumia in this case) as a mass storage device with full filesystem access? Like on the Huawei Ascend W1. This would simplify the process of changing registry keys a lot.
Best regards and good luck.

No. once JTAG halts the phone, it's halted. You can't just "pause" the phone, make changes and continue booting. Sadly.
So, only chance is by writing the modified dump back.
It's not for Lumia only, it's a universal method for every WP8 devices (including emulator) that could enter MassStorage mode
And the Bootstrap app is not a magic, it use the system service by Samsung to modify the CapabilityClasses registry key mentioned by above and this could be done by modify reg hive directly

exactly. I have done this on my Ascend W1 several times, but its easier, because I can enter Mass Storage Mode through bootloader.

I don't know how JTAG method works exactly, I only know that the device needed isn't cheap and can restore bricked phones. How it works? I have no idea, but I'm sure I'll learn quickly.
I will do some research on that soon. I'm a learning noob. :cyclops:

Most credits go to X-Shadow from advance-box team.
Because i had the Idea of modifying the phone dump and read/write via JTAG.
But usually, ATF only supported bootloader repair via JTAG. So i contacted X-Shadow and within only two weeks he updated the jtag-application, and added Custom Read/Write to every part of the EMMC.
That's how i could dump the rom, modify it and write it back.
Absolutely awesome work from that team, just releasing a software because of ONE single inquiry. :good::good::good:
Aw crap, I totally forgot to tell you to test a pure-interop app (like the bootstrap one). You interop-unlocked but failed to capability-unlock, and most WP8 homebrew requires both so of course you couldn't sideload it. DERP
But hey, if you successfully edited the capability class of ID_CAP_DEVELOPERUNLOCK_API - and it looks like you did, or could - then you can use EnableAllSideloading to capability-unlock the phone (it just edits all the other capabilities' classes). I could probably also write a "BootstrapNokia" app if you'd like; I think we have interop-based registry functions for WP8 Lumias, which would allow (for example) making SamWP8 Tools work on your Nokia as well.
SamWP8 tools on Nokia would be great.
I'll check that monday evening, when i'm back at my computer.
I'll keep you informed

My ATIV S racked up 4GB in other storage and I only have 1GB left memory so is there a way to clean up the other storage, from either an XAP file or file explorer?
It's certainly *possible* with the full filesystem access, but I'm not sure where to look. That's the problem; we need to *find* anything in order to delete it.
Wrong forum, should be moved to Q&A.
2 TS: try to clean browser cache first, and check again...
This is an interesting topic.
Unlocked WP7 had CacheCleaner, WP8 Lumias and HTCs can do that by default... And Samsung WP8 are the only who can't!
It may be interesting for the future to have an app similar to CacheCleaner!

your wrong!
lumia devices and HTC Devices only can delete temporary files not Other Storage!
temp files are also about 0-100 MB but other storage gets at least 300 MB and it comes up to 3GB or 4GB!
Lumia and HTC devices are not able to clean that
as i mentioned only you can clean up temp files
To be honest, ALL of the files in Data partition except that in Public folder and programs folder are in "Other".

it means that if we get a file via bluetooth but windows phone can't detect the file type it will make our phone storage full.
or when we get files from net it will stored but we can't delete them at all.

I may put this problem into the first place in my research about wp8 jailbreak. I really wanna know what MS has done to have made our disk space so easy to be filled with cache.
maybe I will publish a cache clearer here as soon as possible after heathcliff74's policy engine hack is done..
before that, maybe a full registry browser and editor will be my target, including some tweaks specially designed for WP8 or from WP7.
I'm still wondering how much it can do with GoodDayToDie's registry library after the ID_CAP_DEVELOPERUNLOCK_API was added.:laugh:
ID_CAP_DEVELOPERUNLOCK_API just enables writing to the section of HKLM which is responsible for app policies; it's very handy, to be sure, but it doesn't actually give you any write access to the *rest* of the system. There are a ton of other capabilities, though, and many of them unlock chunks of the registry... sometimes large ones.
I need to write a tool that does a really proper job of mapping the capabilities to permissions that they enable, and vice versa. So you could, for example, say "I need access to <PATH>" and it would tell you the capability required.

you have to backup your Phone and try.
I think this Other storage files include : Temporary Internet Files, Maybe Store Cache (Softwares you start download them but you don't complete the installation or screenshots of apps and other things), maybe app data !
for example your alarms or your saved games and your settings .
I do not surely know them even i test .

I might have misunderstood that ..
how many capabilities are related to registry?is it possible to enable them all in one app? I want to write an registry editor and browser so that I can do some researches into the registry more conveniently. Maybe more of the registry operation will be able to be done on device.

if your phone is Ativ + Interop Unlock & Full FS , yes .
but for other devices no.
Okay, I picked one of these meh HTC 8XT units up from Sprint. I've done some coverage for this at the general Diagnostic dial codes page, but I've handed them money, to try some stuff once I get it developer unlocked... have to return it before Wednesday at 6PM EST (18:00 -500Z) to waive the $35 restocking fee. After that I still have 14 days from Monday when this post originally was made, but I'll probably need donations to keep it a bit longer. I'm hoping some of this will apply to the HTC 8X and 8S, but there aren't any guarantees.
I first tested these dial codes without any updates, so this may change very soon.
It seems there are THREE apps that have been mapped to the dialer menu: CSDiag, DiagnosticTool_Sprint, and HFA
##DIAG# launches HTC Function Test (CSDiag 1.01.01g)
##PST# launches Service Tools (DiagnosticTool_Sprint)
##DATA# launches Service Tools as well...
##786# does too....
##522# launches then crashes....
##72786# launches Service tools.
##6343# launches DiagnosticTool (the same page that gets launched from the DiagnosticTool tile)
##33284# launches EmbeddedTool (Diag and FieldTrial)
##611 launches, but prompts a search for an app in the store, but no results. When no is pressed, it just shows a sample page.
##737425# launches the DiagnosticTool again...
##43424# the same happens as above...
##873283# launches the prl (what Sprint calls Network Profile) update procedure. (app is called HFA)
##MFG# launches EmbeddedTool (DiagnosticTool_Sprint)
Both apps are installed to the app list.
I'll just start with some pictures to start....
EDIT: All of the accessible diagnostic pages were saved in a zip, due to the vast number of screenshots.

We will probably need the XAPs. Can you install the standard-capabilities version of the webserver and go check the Windows folder and its subfolders for .XAP files? If you can't find any, we will probably need a ROM dump (do we have one already?)

That's probably going to be the first thing I'll try. It'd be convenient if someone could reversion your webserver to generate a txt file that is similar to 'more' output or something similar to that; show all the files that are available from the directory that also shows the sub directories simultaneously, e.g. File tree. My command/dos skills are a tad rusty, so I'm not sure if I'm thinking if its either more or dir.

We will probably need the XAPs. Can you install the standard-capabilities version of the webserver and go check the Windows folder and its subfolders for .XAP files? If you can't find any, we will probably need a ROM dump (do we have one already?)

That's a no for both. I couldn't find any xaps anywhere, and couldn't find anything worth looking at in the 2 hours I had spent looking.

Unfortunately, I don't think I can access that with the Webserver. The second biggest challenge with this is that it doesn't have a rom for it yet..... But I have some app-ids that make it a little more helpful. I've got a complete list to post soon, which will be forwarded to whomever made the SysApp Updater.

I updated my post and put Part 6 and 7 .
excuse me for my low speed net.
for Bold part of quote. do you mean you can't find official htc rom ?
check this two links :
http://www.fshare.vn/file/JBGVWXGXU4/
http://www.fshare.vn/file/TEWJCLCVT8/
I think these links are for HTC 8x but I think there's no difference between wp8 nbh files.
I will search for 8XT and 8S Roms for you and I will provide links even I find any link .
Pretty much... There hasn't been a HTC WP8 rom that's been leaked for US models. I know in the HTC 8X forum there are two roms available, but they both were European roms that were leaked. I have no clue about the HTC 8S, but bing doesn't come up with any results on the 8XT.
EDIT: looks like the ones that @ngame had linked to are asian and european roms
I'm sure HTC still uses the same format nbh that they have been using with their other WP8 devices.

I think the best work is download this leaked nbh and try to extract it.
maybe we can get more files . I'm not sure these xaps are full package of them or not .
These files are provided from a topic who said can unlock the htc 8x bootloader and get a Super CID and he take some screenshots that shows he can directly access to system files ! maybe he didn't find all xaps but if we can extract one rom we can access to all files and maybe can find a solution to cook unofficial roms at least like Samsung Ativ S (that it only Interop Unlock your phone)

I have to go to work tonght, so I'll only have ~ 6 hours to work on it tommorrow, and that's if I don't have any time to mess with it tonight after work.
I'm hoping someone will see this and possibly donate a bit of money for this.
I have already decompiled the dlls from the 8x XAPs...most of them have the capabilities we need...and there are some interesting XAML pages in there...but I couldn't test it because I don't have a HTC

I have a TMO branded 8x. (currently in for service). The only files I ever could get to load via dial codes is CSDDiag. I do have a dump of the xaps from an engineering 8x I found on the DFT forums. It is most definitely the old version of it. I tried every single AppID I could find in there, but nothing exciting launched...only CSDDiag and the standard pre-installed xaps worked.
I have been waiting patiently for someone to see if they can download a copy of CSDDiag onto their ativ S via the Microsoft store Proxy trick (Unlike the Samsung xap, the HTC one is listed as published, and you can click the "install" link if you go directly to it in the Windows store).
I will try and install the sprint tool into my 8x and see if it lets me do anything special. (when I get it back).

Hi Everyone !!
Work on the first custom rom WP8 for Huawei w1 been completed successfully .
Time for something new !
I would like to announce that I start work on Custom ROM for nokia lumia 1520. First attempt at flashing the modified file ffu done successfully .
Unfortunately, in another attempt something went wrong. I switched the phone in Download mode, QPST can repair the phone but I dont have appropriate files (currently). I have Riff Box JTAG but this programator does not support L1520 and i need ATF jtag.
I'll keep you informed about the progress !! :fingers-crossed:
I collect money for the ATF and the new phone, otherwise I can't continue to work. In the future, project will be developed for many other devices with WP8.
Interesting. First of all: Congrats on the succesfull flash,
second of all: I hope you can resurrect your Lumia 1520 how did you get the 1520 to accept the modified rom though? Though Lumias check the signature after the flashing process has completed?
Thanks for congrats
I can ressurect my lumia in 2 ways:
1. I need have repair boot files for QPST
2. I need AFT JTAG
I have methods to cheat the verification process. In the same way I did in Huawei W1. :victory:
These are my priorities:
1. Development and refinement the ability to flash the modified FFU file.
2. Ability to run the phone in mass storage mode
3. Modification software
4. Adapting WP8CRUU for Luma 1520

Getting the boot files might be the trickier method, but you could try what I described in your other post. I guess the ATF Box is your best chance. I'll look through the 1520 update cabs maybe theres something in there that'll help you build the mbn boot image, like on htcs. (which are, for the 8s encrypted, for the 8x not, as far as I know.) If you feel okay with it you can shoot me a message with tips on how you managed to do that, if not, that's not a problem

Are you reading this thread: http://www.coolxap.com/forum-199-1.html ?
I received a lot of information about huawei w1 on this site. When read about it in December 2013.
Actually if the verification bypass works (which, knowing MS's tight security on Nokias, I highly doubt), it just needs to be released as a method, and after that, anyone can make their own custom ROM.
I'd definitely make some changes to the system (clear out some default apps, add some of my own, change the accent colours, allow interop and other caps to any apps, increase custom app limit), but that would break the built-in system updater. So beware modders, DO NOT use official updates when on modded firmware!

Hi,
I have an ATF Box (lordmaxey & me interop unlocked our Lumias with it, do you remember me ) and would like to help you. Feel free to PM me
Another question, did you just modify the .ffu file via Hex Editor? I've tried it myself a long time ago, but it didn't work and I had to repair it with my ATF. Is there a bug in newer Nokia FFU files?

Flashing the custom ROM is not hard, so I would give it a try
Just be sure you don't touch boot partitions, so you will be able to boot into flashmode
On L520, I could simply flash ANY ffu using CareSuite, so flashing works, just need idea, what to change in ROM

How are you able to bypass signature checking though? Funny how on Lumias you can apparently edit the MainOS Partition but cannot touch the Boot ones, and on HTC it's exactly the reverse.
Guys ... the only barrier that separates us from the Custom ROM are 2 files that i need to create and adapt to the device. I mean MPRG8974.mbn ((hex) and msimage8974.mbn . Anyone who has knowledge on this topic, please help !!

Okay, good, Are you sure that your phone will not reject the file when it encounters an error?
How do you think why was invented HSPL ?
For Huawei just enough to crack the flash tool in PC to be able to upload an unsigned app / ffu file. Phone does not validate the data but Huawei is different story. While working on the Custom ROM I used QPST with MPRG ,MSIMAGE, xml's and other files. JTAG also be useful. Without QPST not have been possible creating Custom ROM for Huawei.
Therefore necessary there is start working on the most needed things.

Do you think it is that simple? If yes, where are the custom roms? Where these modified files? Of course there are tools to build files ffu, signing and opening them, but they are not available for "ordinary" people.

I have used HxD hex editor to find the partition headers, then used OSFMount to mount them. You can either mount a part of the ffu, or copy the partition to a separate image
As far as I know (my bricked 520 proves it) SoC's built-in ROM checks the first partition's signature using the public key in Q-Fuse, so let's crack RSA and stuff like that. SPL/HSPL was used to load CE, NT on ARM uses UEFI

I have to find someone with JTAG in Mashad,Iran . Is there anyone ?
it is necessary to learn how to create MPRG / MSIMAGE and use QPST Then jtag will not be needed. These files are obtained by reading the data from the memory EMMC in this case VHD would be the best solution.
OK OK your way worked
I could create 3 Partitions from my L920 (RM-821) Rom .
I couldn't access MainOS partition in this ROM .
sounds good to find this working way but need to work on it hours and hours .

Yes i have own tools for example WP8RUU or WP8CRUU
Things that might be of interest to a custom ROM developer:
* I've just made big progress in figuring out how capabilities work on the phone. Setting them via custom ROM is definitely one of the easier ways it might be done, if you can create arbitrary registry keys and set arbitrary values in them.
* One particularly valuable thing you could add to a non-Samsung ROM is the RPC driver/service/whatever that lets Samsung's RCPComponent library work. I don't know how hard it would be to hack that in, though. The binaries and the registry keys for the service shouldn't be hard to obtain, but I don't know if there will be problems with signatures or anything. Still, if you can get it working, this would mean that Samsung homebrew, and everything we can do with it (such as write arbitrary places in the registry and move files around as SYSTEM) becomes available on the 1520.
Somewhat relatedly, I find myself in need of a new phone (I think my ATIV S may be unrecoverable, and it wasn't even due to a hack I was doing!) and this piques my interest in getting a 1520...

Also (just an idea) RT certificates could be added. Maybe some(!) RT apps could run on the phones
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
These apps work now on WP8.1
wp8.1 supports appx and appxbundle formats so we don't have problem with running them on phones .
If you mean running apps like Multimedia 8 on phone I think we will run into resolution problem .
Not going to happen. First of all, the ported desktop apps only work when signature enforcement is off ("jailbroken") even *on RT*; until/unless we get a signature bypass for WP8 that's a complete non-starter.
The other major problem is that all the base libraries for RT are different than for WP. This extends all the way down to the really core stuff like Kernel32.DLL; RT (like normal Windows) has one, but WP8 doesn't (the functions are split into kernelbase.dll and kernel32legacy.dll). Then there's all the code (like support for the normal desktop interface) that WP8 just flat out doesn't have.
I'm not saying it's impossible to get RT code running on WP8... but it's probably easier to port the entire RT OS to the phone (which is *not* easy, but is possible) than it is to get RT software running on WP8 OS.
Update Mar-12/2016: as long as on the market appeared a long line of new types of mtk6260 mtk6261 mtk2502C mtk2502A (etc) watches equipped with strange new PCB or flash_ID parameters, the new release <Readback Extractor mtk 2.0> now has the capacity to identify, to read, check, rebuild firmware and collect and insert in the .cfg files the flash_ID's coded inside the ROM dump for almost all types of mtk watchphones or smartwatches based on RTOS Nucleus
NOTE: being tested already for mtk6260 mtk6261 mtk2502C and mtk2502A
In short - if you intend to install in your smartwatch new firmwares, mods etc, before to initiate any flashing with the Flash Tool app (pushing that goddamn < Download > button) think twice, 'bove all better DO a backup for the original firmware, why so? because it's containing all original drivers hence you'll be able to recover 100% your watch in case of bricking.
How to:
First you have need of a full dump of your ROM. Assuming that you already got a Flash Tool 5.15.16 and drivers, and you were at the point of flashing something (already chose the download agent and scatter file)
preparations:
a. Set options/backup and restore on no action
b. load the download agent (you find this file inside the flash tool folder)
c. load a scatter firmware - for initialization flash tool needs a scatter file (.cfg) - for dz09 you get this one - for any other than mtk6260A get here and get a firmware compatible with your PCB
d. in case you have W10 - go to the start menu and click on power and hold down the shift key while clicking on restart. A screen then comes up and you need to choose troubleshooting and then startup options. It will then reboot and give you a menu. press 7 which is ignore signed drivers and then when windows comes up, you will be able to install the drivers.
for instance let's say you have a DZ09 smartwatch:
1 - press < Readback > in upper menu and so < Add > in the middle menu
2 - click twice on the item appears in the main window, set name as ROM_DZ choose in browser the path and save
3 - set as Physical start address 0x00000000 and as Length 0x01000000 or 0x00800000 or 00400000 (try them in this order) then ok
4 - turn off the watch, press < Readback > in the middle menu wait 2 seconds and connect through USB your watch
5 - wait until the upload is complete (big green ring)
Now second stage:
1 - download the app I've built attached here (Readback Extractor mtk) and unzip it
2 - create a folder where you intend to keep in safe the original firmware and name it for instance DZ09-Orig
3 - do a copy of Readback Extractor mtk 2.0.exe and place it inside the DZ09-Orig folder then click twice on it
4 - press <Load Readback file> and browse after the ROM_DZ file created before with the Flash Tool then open
5 - Wait about a minute while the app will check bit by bit the integrity of your file
6 - If everything went ok and your file is healthy then app will show " health 100% " so you can proceed to the next step
7 - Press <Rebuild Firmware> and wait about one minute (it shows a progress counter)
8 - When appears the message " - ALL DONE!!!" close app and go back in the DZ09-Orig folder, now you'll find there a set of new files which are the original firmware kit ready to be flashed back in your phone anytime you want
9 - Enjoy flashing anything you like without any fear that something bad can happen
Some tricks for writing IMEI in your watch NVRAM:
you connect to usb your watch (turned on this time) and set the com port on the watch screen, go in device manager and check the port number your watch is connected, then you open Tera Term hyperterminal (google for this app), connect it as serial com on watch com port and then give the command:
AT + EGMR = 1, 7, " imei number "
if on screen appears OK then ready, you've changed your imei
AFTERWARDS READ ME story - Anywhere you search, there is no one to tell you explicitly how to extract from your mtk smartwatch the firmware kit
All says a halfmouth: Do a full < Readback > in Flash Tool, you'll do it being confident that from now on you say goodbye to any risk because you have A BACKUP hence you start flashing new firmwares. And the Big Brick is coming , you smile and get back to your < Readback > backup discovering that, sadly, you have a binary bulk at first sight good for nothing. It cannot be so useless, isn't it? after all it contains full dump of your ROM! I was in exactly the same situation, so 'cause I didn't find any answer I've started reverse engineering . . . and it worked, first I did it manually for guys being in the same situation, 've noticed that is a common issue so I had to choose how to help, simpler but dangerous (for you) way, to create a tutorial <how to> or the hard way (hard for me), to develop an app which will do all "cooking" automatically and I choose the second because in manually way there is a quite big "chance" to mess up with your primary bootloader which could get to a real tragedy - no modem - brickest brick you saw in your entire life

Unfortunately, yet, there is no way to get in contact with the watch else than through proprietary mediatek drivers so that the only ways to communicate for now are Flash Tool app and bluetooth modem proprietary commands (the most important of them being secret as well)
To do such a reverse engineering is way way way over my pay grade
Still I'm working for an app which could replace any media in the watch (backgrounds, icons) but through flashing method of course
Thanks for the info...I just think this watch have great potential

I'm almost sure you found these before me, still, here link you have more than 10 versions of dz09 firmwares (others than we checked before)
It looks like they made a firmware for each phone ) very prolific guys when about dz09
Hope this time you catch the right one!

Hi! Could you explain a little bit more about this tool. What does it do? Does it unlock bootloader? Does it flash TWRP? Does it root? How? Thanks!

Hello, this tool unlock bootloader, install twrp and root your phone but you have to manually download twrp img and superSU zip.Now i am working to do this automatically.. I write it in batch and just using adb commands. Soon i will upload the code in github, it's a very easy code at all.
I am here to help everytime you want .

Why is this a thing? Why not just stick to the tried and true method of unlocking or use Nexus ToolKit?
v.0.0.0.1 ? What?

No, it isn't bad. But usually when someone makes a tool it has a high level of flexibility and the program is usually very dynamic. Yours is like 100% static. It's like written in stone what the program is going to execute so that makes this program not user-friendly at all. To be honest with you, it's a nice try. I mean it proves you know and know how to use various batch functionalities. But it's nothing to write home about. I'd suggest diving into something like Java or Python and let the user decide more options so eventually you have a dynamic, but very robust tool for people to use.

Thank you for your advices! I am begginer with all this thing and i am looking to learn more and make more dynamic tools. I am searching but it's hard to find information about programming for smartphones. So i am looking for help but i don't know where to search.
[Sorry for my bad english]
very cool
thanks for your contribution, everybody started somewhere and there are tons of folks who want a quick no frills method of rooting phones of all makes, Ive done rooting for $ for folks who dont want to learn how for whatever reason and woulduse a tool like this to just get the job done quick & easy.
keep plugging away at it add as much functionality as you want, people just like to troll and down anybody on the 'net but would never have the balls to do it IRL.
Ive been around this forum since before android and have seen it grow, I wish people would be more appreciative and troll less, maybe this tool isnt for you, but it may be just what somebody else is looking for....
I know how to root and have done it many times, Im about to root a bullhead and im glad this tool is here, why do it by hand if somebody else automated it?
work smarter not harder.

Hi! Thanks for encouriging @dimkyr developing a easy-to-use and useful tool like this one. I think you're 100% right! :highfive: Did you try it yourself? OP, on how many devices did you test your tool? What about drivers for Windows? Could you add some screenshots? I'm trying to root my N5X (MM-MDA89E) and I just can't. I've successfully unlocked its bootloader with NRT, but NRT keeps failling when rooting (tried in my PC with Windows 10, in two other PC with W7, and other PC with Xubuntu) :crying:. I'd be glad to test this tool if it's 100% sure! I WANT ROOT! In case you don't notice, I'm a noob! But I can't afford bricking my new N5X. Thanks!

Thank you everybody !!
I tested this tool to my N5X and work perfectly. But it's weird that NRT failed..
It's always a chance to fail or brick.
I will post screenshot later in this day!
With regards

im on linux atm so no i havent tried it, if the toolkit isnt working just do it manually, follow a walk thru to the letter take your time, as long as u follow instructions for your build you will be fine(settings>about phone>build number.... mine is NBD90W which is 7.0 security patch level 0ct. 5,2016)
doing a root tutorial that matches your build will prevent most if not all of the hiccups that can come from incompatibilities in roms that are more complex than a noobie rooter needs to know.
