I searched arround and have not found the answer for this one. A friend of mine have a lumia 710 and he went to germany on a business travel and took pictures. When he came back he was tired and while he was sleeping his mom put the wrong password many times, thinking she was dialing =/ , so the cellphone erased everything, because of the security policy.
Is there any way I can get the pictures back? I was thinking of installing a custom ROM and acessing the file system through my PC and use a software to recover deleted archives. In a hard drive that would be possible if it is not encrypted but I am not sure if this is possible on flash memory.
I am open to any suggestions.
I already told him he lost everything but I would try something, he allowed me to do whatever needed, flash ROMs and etc even knowing he could lose the phone.
Any suggestions? comentaries or critics?
I am a relatively new user to the fórum, I tryed to follow the rules sorry if I did something wrong
Thanks in advance !

My dell was totally dead (Bricked) and I sent it to one of my friends to JTAG. After Resurrection with Riff Box, it came to live but it does not recognize the sim card (shows no sim card). In addition to that it shows TAG Number 000000. Please help.
what rom is currently installed? you could try reinstalling with 351/latest to make sure all the firmware files are in sync.
Have you tried doing a read on a good streak to make sure the data loaded though jtag was good?
(I dont have any actual exprience jatagging, i assume you can do reads though it just like you can do writes)

I do not have any information about JTAG. My friend has done the JTAG. I will try to forward your post him.

I have the same problem after my Riff JTAG around 3-4 days back. I have the unlock Code but it's not prompting me to input one. My Service Tag Number has also gone 000000.
(I am not sure if Streak Unlocker will be able to unlock my phone and therefore not paid $29 yet though the test shows it can. But then Test was showing it can unlock by phone even when it was already unlocked.)
I guess JTAG has somehow re-written the BIOS and not sure what to do next. I have tried Stock ROMs but still not getting the prompt to put unlock code. I am considering to get the JTAG done again and get everything written properly or try Streak Unlocker after paying $29.
There must be a way to put the unlock Code in Engineering mode or by keying in some number like *#123UNLOCK321#* or find & write the code manually. If streak unlocker can do it there must be way to do it manually too.
Well the streak has to store some special data somewhere, stuff like the service tag among them.
If you can get your hands on a couple of working, stock streaks, you might want to consider trying to dump that data and seeing what's shared among all streaks what what is unique. Very least it might give you a clue on why yours isnt working/displays no service tag

If some one has a better or rather a more practical idea..Please help. Getting couple of Streaks is almost impossible here (India) and further getting them on Stock ROM will be equally impossible at most of the places (how many ppl you find around.... having a streak?)
I have the unlock code.......Just need a way to enter it....I am not getting this prompt on any ROM I have tried QDL, Stock O2, Stock AT&T. Stock Hong Kong (354) ...and have hit the wall

I am really SAD for you. my mobile still with my friend and so far I do not know what is the status (I am just waiting ). Have you done a full backup before it got bricked. If so, try full restore (This what I asked my friend to do).
Same Problem!!
I had the same problem with my DS. It shows a message Default NV selected #3 while loading in fastboot mode. so i guess something went wrong while setting the default NV to 3??.
Valid SIM card is no longer detected and gives notification saying No SIM Card.
It was a factory unlocked phone and was bricked last month by the command fastboot -w.
since this command erased the user data from somewhere inside the phone(either Internal SD card or the ROM), there should be some ways to re-write those data to those locations.
If any one is familiar to develop some kinda application that can write to those locations then pleaseeeeeeeeee try this out for us.. we can root the device if needed..
If anyone with same problem has got any solutions then please do share with me too..
my email address is : [email protected]
Thanks in advance
JTAGging the Streak is the only way to revive a Streak that has been hit with a fastboot -w. And as you have seen from the rest of the thread it's very likely the Streak will never be able to make calls again after recovery. There are multiple other users in the forum dealing with bricked Streaks, and out of all of them, I believe only one was able to restore phone capability.
Changing MicroSD cards and/or ROMs won't help because the affected area is in the Streak's BIOS (for lack of a better term). The service tag and SIM card low-level interface firmware are stored in the BIOS.
There gotta be a way out of it!!
Hi eveyone!
Now i ended up to a dell streak tablet(was phone) after i did the "fastboot -w" .
The guys from dell mailed me yesterday that they can recover it but would cost me 179.9 pounds(Which i bought for 200 pounds). Is that fair?? to charge 179 for repairing a phone that can be bought at 200?? So i decided not to send to the dell store for repair.
Since i am not an expert I am not sure about this ,But i think there is a way out of this problem, I mean if "fastboot -w" command erases the data from "god knows which location" then there can be a command like "fastboot -wr location data_to_be_copied" which simply copies some thing that is missing due to fastboot -wr command??
Is there anyone who can Reverse Engineer the fastboot and figure out from where the data was deleted and what was deleted and the way to restore those data there???
Thanks in advance to those who would analyze the fastboot and its data flow and try to help coz there are lot of people waiting for this..
We have 8 nand partitions (/dev/block/mtdblock0-7)
One is for kernel boot image, other might contain system, bb, firstboot and other stuff.
Maybe the answer is there?
Fastboot -w/erase likely corrupts the partition table on the innerSD,
seeing as it was prob due to dell never updating their fastboot loader to take it into account. (The Venue doesnt have this issue as it doesnt have an innerSD).
You can fix it by either restoring it to a known good image (there's a thread on the main subforum) or by manually repartitioning your innerSD.
You will need to disassemble your S5 to do it (regardless of who does it) and a pc with a SD/microSD port then just reimage it, it's not very difficult besides the disassembling part.
The firmwares are on the nand, but we cant read to it, and the only way to (safely) write to it is the stock rec.
i ve manage to get pc to recognise my ph as a device whereby i can transfer
any file to the ph but my problem is this, i m fairdinkum newbie to win7 and i m trying to enable tethering so i send the usbmodeswitch file to the ph i can't seem to find it so i need help.
here is the help,firstly how do i locate the file and secondly how do i open it, canit be done as in andriod ph's file manager? also i m on stock 7.5 mango i don't know if i i can follow the tethering procedure.... any help will be kindly appreciated thanks
Hi,
First of all, could you please post a thread topic?
This way, members that might be able to help you become aware of the problem much faster.
Regarding your problem:
There is no file browser like in Android built-in.
It should not be necessary, because all installed applications are displayed in Programs.
Additionally, you need to be at least Interop-unlocked (if not even fully unlocked) for this Tethering-procedure to work.
Is your phone unlocked? If so, which unlock does it have?

thanks for yr speedy reply..
no my ph is not unlock as i ve just updated, also i m searching for a tutorial to do so, as i jumped straight from 7.0.7004 to 7.10.7720 i m not quite sure where to start or which to follow cause i m not used to win lingo yet
Incidentally i do not see "Programs" in my ph, is it there by default?
Appreciate yr help
Hi again,
Yes, the Programs are there by default
When you are viewing the main screen (just press the Home-button, the one with the Windows-flag, to get there).
Then flick the screen to the left (moving your finger from right to left) and you should see a list of installed programs (including "Settings", "Office", ...).
Regarding the unlock, there are several ways:
- the official one (obtaining a developer account for WP7 from Microsoft and registering your phone to it)
- the semi-official way (http://labs.chevronwp7.com/) which is a cooperation of Chevron and Microsoft
- the unofficial way (via flashing a pre-unlocked Rom, see below for details)
Both official options cost real money, so you might be tempted to go for the cheap (aka free) version, especially if you are not a developer.
To do this, you will have to flash a custom Rom on your phone, which is already unlocked.
The additional advantage of this method is that you can chose a custom Rom that has Internet Sharing activated by default (via the application that was introduced to some handsets via Mango).
HOWEVER, you will lose your warranty and (at the moment) all the data on the phone.
Flashing will format the phone, which will delete all savegames, SMS, eMails, ... you name it
This should not be a major aspect if you just got your phone.
Everything that has been synchronized to the Microsoft cloud or some other storage can be restored later.
BUT at the moment there is no way to backup your SMS, savegames and settings.
(You can do a full backup for the sake of returning to an official rom, which will include ALL the data - i.e. SMS, settings, ... - however, this backup can only be restored by 100%, therefore you will lose all the data you stored on the phone AFTER doing the backup).
That's that
If you should like to flash a custom Rom, just head over to the Rom Development-segment of the Mozart-Forum and choose a custom Rom.
But beware, depending on your SPL you might have to go through some hoops to flash it or it might even be impossible...
Also, the Rom development-forum provides several threads regarding all the details of flashing a Rom, which SPLs are ok and which to avoid.
So I guess you should be fine if you take some time to read into the matter
Good Luck.

Ive just restored 7.0.7008 fr 7.10.7720 cos the battery is atrocious it was fully charged n i sent a few emails,sms and 3 ph calls then i went to bed, the battery was flat in 11hrs, when it was on 7004 it lasted 2days
I had a look at the dev section and i kinda like deepshinning rom which i ve to figure out how to flash it. Tho the ph is only 6mths old now i m not bothered abt the warranty the only thing is that do i ve to go back to 7004 to be able to flash the rom?
current: os 7.0.7008.0
fw 2250.09.12902.728
rd 5.69.09.05a.22.50.50.21u
bootloader 5.0.2250.1(130781)
A pointer or a link to flash the ds rom will be much appreciated
thanks again
Hey all!
So im quite stuck with my S6 Edge here, it's locked with a pin code/password to be able to get into it to retrive the files that i have on it.
Is there a way to unlock it without the traditional ways? I've been in contact with Samsung, sadly the phone is NOT connected to a samsung account, so i can't unlock it trough "find my phone". Also tried pushing wrong password xx times to get to the "cooldown" to see if i could do a recovery trough gmail/samsung account but that option does not come up when trying.
I dont really mind if i dont get the phone unlocked in that sence, but i do need to get ahold of the files on it. (images/videos/sound and text files). The phone was used to record alot of music and texts that i did not get to upload to my google drive.
Any tips at all would be highly appriciated
(the only tip i have so far, is to send the phone in to get it broken up, take out the harddrive/memory unit then grabbing everything from there trough some sort of program which i got told is a lengthy and potential costly process).
Best Regards

Hello, if you don't mind rooting it, you can flash the TWRP Recovery, delete the so called lockscreen.db files and then you should be good to go.
But keep the following in mind:
This will not only void your warranty, the KNOX Counter on your Phone will also be "triggered" meaning it'll go from 0x0 to 0x1 (Once it's at 1 it can't be undone anymore)
I found a video about bypassing passcode from a Samsung Galaxy if you forgot the passcode, and keep all data on your phone safety.

Hello, please advise, help. I have a Phone Hawk from EE and I have a problem after the factory settings. I got a phone call from an acquaintance. He said the google account is removed and made the factory settings. Unfortunately, he has not used the email he had there for a long time and it is no longer possible to find it or log in on the phone. It always turns out that the email was not found even after entering the correct email. Please can I bypass email verification? Is it possible to do FRP bypass or play rom / firmware so that I can use the phone normally? Unfortunately, I don't have another phone, and even with the help of an acquaintance from whom I got the phone, I couldn't get to the phone via email. :crying: :crying: :crying: :crying:

Look inside here.
Thank you, the instructions are great and would definitely help me. But I always get stuck that I need the original scatter file. I searched the internet and didn't find much. Or rather, after inserting it into the SP Flash tool, it writes me an error. Is it possible to get the scatter somewhere?
Hello, I have a mi lite 8 that I bought a short time ago but an accident happened, my MI account was on the cell phone and registered on a phone that does not exist, I tried to help but where I live the price they charged me was more than half the value of cell phone.
I would like to know if there is any method for me to be able to recover my device or any topic in the forum so I can learn something to solve my problem, I looked in the help part but I didn't find anything about this problem, if this topic is prohibited please disregard .
I don't understand : It asks you to connect to a Mi Account you don't own ?
Maybe someone stolen that phone, i dont think there is a fix for that. Try full reset using mi flash tool and reinstall the latest rom using fastboot mode
