HP Elite X3 Unlock Method?

I have a completely updated HP Elite X3 and have tried various ways to unlock the file system for modification with no success.
Does anyone know the proper way to unlock the file system on the HP Elite X3?
I've tried vcREG with no luck. Thanks All.

Thanks for the response. I have followed the vcREG thread but did not do the part you just showed me with changing the name. I am attempting to do so in vcREG but it is not reading anything.
Would you mind telling me the steps to change the DeviceTargetInfo?

You can use interop tools / custompfd or vcreg to modify this :
HKLM\System\Platform\DeviceTargetingInfo
Change the PhoneManufacturer to NOKIA

Perhaps I am doing it wrong in vcREG.
Is this correct:
Open vcReg
Click Hkey_local_machine
Type path: HKLM\System\Platform\DeviceTargetingInfo
Type key: PhoneManufacturer
Hitting Read does nothing.
What are the steps to changing the Manufacturer in vcREG? Sorry to bug, I am a long time Android user and just moved to Windows for the first time. I appreciate the help!

After doing exactly this, I hit read and nothing shows up. I have typed the path correctly. I'm not sure what is going on. I am going to try a complete reset and then do it again.

Thanks again for the help, I am currently restoring the phone using Windows Device Recovery Tool to start fresh. I will try CustomPFD and report back any progress.

I am trying to install CustomPFD and am getting error 0X81030120 now and it fails. This is on a fresh reset phone with no modifications other than enabling Developer Mode.
How do you install CustomPFD without getting the error?
I am using XAPdeployment to install.

I attempt to deploy the roottool.xap but it hangs and hangs and never installs.

I jsut noticed that in the Info section of the phone it now says ACERINC whch is one of the things I tried changing the phone registry to for manufacturer so......maybe I'm making progress here? I really don't know. Could not get either of the above to install.

Following it... only via W10 for desktop, no way for the remote registry editing via Windows 7 Professional?

When I install Interop tools on the X3 it does not show up anywhere, as an app or in the extras location.
Ok, link was posted. I downloaded the file and installed it. Now the problem I have is when installing interop tools. I copy to SD card, click the dependency files to install then install interop tools by clicking on it. It doesn't show up as an app and doesn't show up in extras.

I just updated the OP again. And where did you see it should be in extras? Don't follow or read the older thread that got posted, go to the storage settings, make sure interop tools isn't listed at all, if it is, uninstall it, then download the current pre-release 8 of beta 1.9, and read carefully the instructions. You are required to install using device portal. If it failed, device portal should give you a specific error code. Just make sure to follow the installation instructions from the official thread and everything should go alright.
Edit: reopen the thread and download the other missing ndtk spkgs zip too. Forgot to include it.

NDTK files
Ok, Got the NDTK files installed and it is restarting...
..OK.. Success. IT is installed, I can browse files from my PC and delete them. I deleted the system apps I don't use such as Xbox, Get Help, Continuum, etc. They immediately force close when clicked on in the start menu but do not disappear when the phone is restarted. I noticed the app files showed back up under Data\SYSTEMAPPS as well.
Does anyone know how to permanently remove these apps from the start menu?

Possible to sideload older version of 'Advanced Info' ?

I'm trying to interop unlock my Lumia 550, but it seems the Advanced Info app has updated as when I get to step 2 of unlocking in the vcReg app, it just crashes. Is it possible to download and sideload an older version of the app to allow me to finish the interop unlock?

No

Sideload.
Just erase -zip extension.

It doesn't work. I have a Lumia 550, so I click on Restore NDTKSvc (x50) and it says it didn't find the file. However, I accidentally toggled the one for non x50 devices and can't figure out how to undo that, so maybe that is my issue.

[GUIDE] How to fix Windows Update Issue on CU builds - Error 0x80070273

For those who are still waiting for a fix for the update error and don't want to undergo the recovery process, I found a different solution, which doesn't need a recovery operation on the phone.
I tested it with success on my 1020 and another 925 which were stuck in the CU build .297.
Keep in mind that the parameters that I will use are specific to these phone models, so if you have a different one you need to find the parameters specific to your phone model.
This is an heuristic procedure, tested on a limited number of phones, so use it at your risk, keeping in mind that you could have problems or need to recover your phone loosing all your data, so do a proper backup before.
Let's start.
The problem appears because, during update phase, the oeminput.xml file becomes corrupted: as far as I know it happens only on some x20 models, and not for all the users.
Now we're going to rebuild it...
Go to the following link
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/hardware/dn756630(v=vs.85).aspx
Copy the content of example file oeminput.xml: i.e. copy the content of the framed zone after the phrase "The following example shows the contents of a sample ProductionOEMInput.xml file"
Paste in a .txt file which you'll rename and change extension so that it becomes oeminput.xml. Save it with notepad.
Now modify the file
at the node <SOC>{PROCESSOR_NAME}</SOC> modify {PROCESSOR_NAME} fake parameter in order to have the processor name of your phone: for the 920/925/1020 use QC8960
at the node <Resolution>480x800</Resolution> instead of 480x800 use the resolution of your phone: for the 920/925/1020 use 768x1280
in all the nodes related to language <Language>en-US</Language> use the language of your phone: I used for example it-IT because I have the phone in Italian language.
Save the file.
Now if you still don't have interop tools installed (but I think you should have if you arrived to CU with an x20 phone model) install it.
Launch interop tools and then click this device and enable full file system access. Reboot your phone, connect it to a pc with cable: you'll see more directories than usual, because you also unlocked system dirs: be careful not to delete or modify any dir apart from what you find in this guide or you'll risk to damage your phone. If you want to find your usual dirs (docs photos...etc), go to phone\Data\Users\Public. I advise you that after the procedure I couldn't deactivate full file system access, because it continues re-activating in interop tools, maybe there is a way: but you can live with this, because you can find the usual dirs in the path that I specified...
Now go to phone\windows\imageupdate, make a backup on pc of the current oeminput.xml and overwrite it with the new one.
At this point in the phone go to settings, update and then search for updates: you should find Fall Creators Update...
Good Luck!
p.s. I didn't extensively search on the forum if a similar guide has been already posted, in the case sorry for the duplication.
Thanks to Antonio who has actively participated in the realization of this guide

At this point I think it's not a problem of corrupted oeminput file.

https://answers.microsoft.com/de-de...nd-eimem/0a6e1776-9005-40e8-a18e-9eaf0f35b648
It's in german language, but from what I understood the problem has been solved with Recovery Tool via pc: I know that's not the best solution, but maybe better than remaining without updates. Another significative information is that an hard reset alone doesn't solve the issue!
I hope that can be of any help...

You can examine your oeminput.xml file and check if it is somehow not well-formed.
If that is the case you can use
<SOC>QC8926</SOC>
<Resolution>720x1280</Resolution>

Thanks for the reply guys.
I couldn't wait longer, so went with an reset. It updated fine after that.
Later came to know it was some server issue

The error overwriting oeminput.xml happens when you haven't obtained full filesystem access.
In order to obtain full filesystem access:
Open Interop Tools, then this device, then Interop Unlock.
Check Full Filesysytem Access and restart your device.
Refer to this thread to download correct version of Interop Tools

It is a multiboot bootloader. You can look it up and read more about it if you search GNU Grub on the internet.
It is the bootloader of choice normally for linux distros. Ever installed a dual boot Windows/Ubuntu system, and have seen the boot menu appear to choose between Windows and Ubuntu?

That was an irony. Currently and in the future, there is no need of GRUB or any other bootloader for this almost dead platform, no one will port Android or any other OS'es for Lumias, it has practically no sense at all and almost impossible (because of lack of drivers source code etc.)

For your bricked 530...what mode is it in that you are able to flash? Does it boot to UEFI? I have two 1320s stuck in emg QC-9008 mode that if I could get past the signature check I could save them, I flashed the wrong ffu and it won't boot since the RKH does not match what was flashed.

in your case i think you need check bootarm.efi and bootmgfw.efi and bcd ... (maybe some else because I can't tell about reset protection)
because grub running by windows boot manager.
for this I have two reasons:
first it's more safer.
second it's qualcomm bootloader wont start grub directly.(can't find boot option, when I replace bootarm.efi)

click on lumia,
Windows Device recovery tool may ask you what RM it is and then will download emergency payloads for you and start flashing the phone.
You can as well just download emergency files from lumiafirmware.com and do the steps described in the recover your phone from dload thread. Hex and bins are for older models.

go here, download the files in the zip file.
Run this command while making sure you replace <pathtodownloadedede/edp> with the proper path to both files, if you still get a file not found issue, please screenshot the command you typed in cmd as well as the path of the files:
Code:
thor2.exe -mode emergency -hexfile "<pathtodownloadedede/edp>\MPRG8x26_fh.ede" -edfile "<pathtodownloadedede/edp>\RM1096_fh.edp"
And don't give up, it's 100% sure you can unbrick this phone, you just have to be patient and properly do things

Run this command while making sure you replace <pathtodownloadedede/edp> with the proper path to both files, if you still get a file not found issue, please screenshot the command you typed in cmd as well as the path of the files:
And don't give up, it's 100% sure you can unbrick this phone, you just have to be patient and properly do things

So if I place the folder containing the files in "C:/lumia" what would the proper command be
For some reason I have to type a ".\" before every command (?)
The model is RM_1074 . if you look at the screenshot it is wrong and just proceeds to the next line with a blinking cursor
Apologies ,haven't slept in over 24 hours

Remove "cd C:\lumia".
type only thor2.exe -mode emergency -hexfile "c:\lumia\MPRG8x26_fh.ede" -edfile "c:\lumia\RM1096_fh.edp"

Here's the " lumia" folder in c: drive :laugh:
Lol it fails every time I try. In admin ,normal ,with/without ".\" , see Gdrive link
1. c:/Microsoft care suite/Windows Device Recovery Tool/ " :laugh:
start a power shell, enter the EXACT command. Lol I tried it about ten times
I bet you can't guess what happens.. :laugh::laugh:....

It just exits. And.. That's it.
No process, no "flashing phone" .. :silly: ;
Soo, I guess my phones f##ked. Thanks.

But I appreciate the efforts. I have been awake for 30 hours. I have my 930 rooted and unlocked etc.
My 640 cannot be restored I'm sure of it. There's no firmware on it it failed when I tried to restore the software with wdrt about 8 months ago after a Botchy insider build bricked it
:highfive: thanks anyway .

When using powershell from the WDRT directory you have to execute the thor2 command file as so:
.\thor2.exe
Run it like this:
Code:
.\thor2.exe -mode emergency -hexfile "C:\lumia\MPRG8x26_fh.ede" -edfile "C:\lumia\RM1096_fh.edp"
Just copy and paste
or open cmd prompt (click start and type cmd) and paste this:
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Care Suite\Windows Device Recovery Tool\thor2.exe" -mode emergency -hexfile "C:\lumia\MPRG8x26_fh.ede" -edfile "C:
\lumia\RM1096_fh.edp"

Thanks. Its not going to work
I just opened cmd and copied the command . didn't work
I think I've made enough of an idiot of myself so I'd appreciate it if no one makes any more comments

No worries at all man... Seems like it is still could be a signature mismatch then. You have a Lumia 640 LTE right? RM-1074 .
