Hello guys, I've got Nokia Lumia 920 from China with my friend's help. I was unable to install facebook, youtube & most of the apps, it just keeps on saying that this app is not available in your region though all those apps works in my friend's Lumia 800...
later i came to know that my phone is RM-822...
so can i do anything for this, to make it normal as other phones which r compatible to all apps...
may be debranding or changing RM numbers or product code stuff ?..
Have you tried changing the country/region setting to US?
What country is the Microsoft account you're using with the phone from?

Even I am facing same problem with my phone. Can anyone help here.
No solution yet
It's probably because facebook and youtube are banned in China. So phones targeted for the Chinese market can't have those apps. maybe you can try to flash your phone with a RM821 firmware and maybe that will solve the problem..

is that possible to flash with RM-821 firmware. i think, phone will be not work ...someone in china have a try...：哭：
The Lumia 920T from China uses a different SoC with a different GPU than the US/EU-Versions (RM-820, RM-821) because it was the only Qualcomm Chip available that supports the Chinese 3G variant. Based on that I'm pretty sure that international ROMs will not work.

This might get it done but I'm not sure if rm-822 will support rm-821 firmware. Flash at your own risk. Seems like with this method you could always re-flash to rm-822 if it didn't work though. Good luck!
Any update ?

Hey there,
I have a Nokia Lumia 920 with the Retail Demo Software, i wanna have a full WP8 OS on this Device.
Is it possible to disable the Demo mode?
You have to use the Nokia Care Suite to load a new Rom.
Sent from my LG-E970 using XDA Premium HD app
where can i find the the Download link for Version 2012.44.5.3?
Same here, help would be appreciated. Any way to get rid off the Demo mode? I have installed navifirm+ but really do not know which variant I have to download or how to install it, maybe because I am new to Windows Phone...
So the phones aren't even out yet on AT&T, ppl have been selling these stolen store demos ?
Demo mode is a special ROM loaded on phones display in retail stores. The only way to get rid of it is to load a different ROM. There is no easy way to do it. You have to research it yourself.

It's not stolen at all, we are officially selling these Phones and got 1 free when buying 5. The free one was the demo device, but I didn't know about that. Now I would like to use this device for myself but I can't... I did some research and downloaded a ROM but I really do not find any download link for Phoenix or JAF to install the ROM on my device so now I am really stuck and don't know what to do.
EDIT: Ok I downloaded Phoenix and it says the Lumia isn't even connected. Seems like fail. Any ideas?

That was interesting. When orginal Samsung Focus was released, store employees have to load the demo firmware by themselves IIRC. So now it is loaded by the coporate AT&T.

Actually I'm from Germany and it is not a branded device at all. It just comes with the demo to be placed in a shop where everybody can get their hands on it. But this isn't of any use for us. Help would still be appreciated
Your besy bet is head over to dev forum asking for how to load ROMs to it. But the first thing is to find the official ROM files to download. There is no common way in Windows Phone to load device ROMs from another ROM. Each manufacturer has its own ways. Once you loaded with official ROM tough, you can easily upgrade via common Windows Phone OTA update afterwards.

Navifirm doesn't have any RM-820 ROMs yet. Only 821. Did you successfully flash a RM-821 ROM onto a AT&T 920 (RM-820)???
Or, did you find a RM-820 ROM?
I tried to flash a 821 ROM onto my Rogers 920 which is also RM-820, and the phone won't boot, I am desperately trying to find a RM-820 ROM.

You are right I see, there is no RM-820. But I wasn't even able to flash the ROM because Phoenix didn't detecte my device, it was shown as not connected. How did you mange to flash it then? Btw my Lumia isn't from AT&T.

I chose a RM-821 rom to flash in NCS. It asked me to confirm since the ROM wasn't for this phone. I did, and it started flashing. Then it errored out, saying the ROM isn't for the phone and wouldn't go. I was left with a dead phone

Nope, mine was not a demo. I bought it off Kijiji.
I just had success in the past flashing a non-Rogers ROM onto my Lumia 900 and getting MMS and tethering to work. I thought I could do the same here.
If I understand correctly, you're in Germany. That would mean you have a RM-821 device. That would mean you have tons of options for flashing, Nokia Product Support for Store would be what you need. Just download the non-demo ROM for your country and flash it. If you're flashing a RM-821 ROM to a RM-821 device, you should be golden.
RM-821 ROM to a RM-820 device, not so much
It works. Nuff said.
HTC 8X demo mode -- ROM?
I've a similar issue, but with an HTC 8X.
Some guy on Craigslist sold my not-very-smart sister an HTC 8X Windows Phone 8 for $250. Of course, it is locked in demo mode and probably stolen. I've no idea to be honest. I would like to try to flash this demo mode HTC 8X phone into a regular AT&T phone.
I previously flashed a Windows 7.0 Samsung Focus phone w/ Mango through the wonderful instructions on this forum. I'm tempted to try it again, but I would appreciate any guidance on:
1. Finding the right ROM for a HTC 8X phone. It says:
OS version: 8.0.9905.12
Firmware revision: 1532.20.10012.502
Hardware revision number: 0002
2. Basic instructions on how to flash it (someone said navifirm-- do I just install it? etc.) where is it located?
3. Any thoughts on the process of flashing the ROM? Steps, etc.? I'm reasonably technologically savvy, but I don't code anymore these days so I'm not a whiz at this stuff.
Any help would be really appreciated! Thx.

Your developer edition 920 is the exact same model as the Rogers one.
Flash the Rogers Firmware, you should be fine, only negative thing is that you are gonna get the Rogers Logo on boot and a Rogers App in the phone which you can simply uninstall.
Once the developer edition clean firmware hits the servers, you can re-flash.
That's your only solution for now.

you can download it via NCS and product support tool 5.0 within NCS. just download the right one for your serial number, every phone region has its own product code. it is in the sim card tray printed. something like "059R3S1" thats a vodafone german version of the white lumia 920 so you type in yours in the NCS product support tool 5.0. there is on top of the app an setting like tools -> firmware download, there you type in your product code and see if there is a newer version than your on the phone. if not then type in what stays in the first post on one of the two links... there is the product code for lumia 920 and 820 on both sites.

I only recieved the smart camera app, but not the pro camera app. Is it possible that they made a mistake and confused pro camera with smart camera, and nokia pro camera will not come to 920/925 devices?

Hello Everyone..
I know the title looks like duplicate of existing threads but none of the suggestions seem to work for me so creating new one here.
So what I am looking for:
A firmware for Nokia Lumia 920 (RM-821) for GB region which is unlocked.
I need to flash my existing one with the above one.
Problem:
All sites give list of product codes for the same, but using different versions of navifirm or nokia care suite i could not get to download the firmware .
The different error i get is:
1. Variant not found
2. Authentication failed.
Could someone get me a direct download link to firmware I have listed above?
Or is it that Nokia has blocked all access to nokia care suite externally and blocked requests from navifirm?
Please help
Thanks,
