Decided to release these as Microsoft still didn't release those emergency files. Feel free to request emergency files on this thread, since I can't know exactly for all all models which don't have any emergency payloads, and wouldn't surprise me if there's more than the Lumia 650 being affected by this.

Here's the Lumia 650 emergency files, which were never publicly released by Microsoft.
Will help anybody which have a 650 stuck in download mode, or may help you in the future.
Nobody knows why MS never released them, but it wasn't for the best for sure.
Have fun!

Thanks so much - just one question:
In the zip file there are emergency files for a never released phone RM-1151 - but emergency files for the aussie / kiwi variant RM-1153 are missing. Do you have this, too?

Didn't pay attention, I might have included a prototype payload with the set, anyway all payloads that are in the zip file work on all 650 variants, regardless of the RM, so not really a problem.

I have no xml file that goes with this, shouldn't be needed since thor handles elf payloads like these just fine without any xml

Sahara protocol had never worked without .xml file for me. E.g, last Friday I had used the emergency mode of Lumia 532. WDRT had downloaded .ede and .edp files for that device. It had downloaded .xml file too. However, it had not used the .xml file, the emergency mode had failed. Then, I had used thor2 to running the cmd using the .xml file, the emergency mode had worked.

It really depends on the phones, sometimes you have to hammer it a couple of time for it to work properly, but for elf payloads there's really no need.

The best thing would be MS adding them to repair avoidance... But sometimes I also wonder if they lost some stuff for lumias or not internally...

how were you able to use this command? I tried this but it say it has no connection with the phone. the phone was connected well with WDRT but everytime I flash with it and flash was completed, after it restart it doesn;t change the os and firmware is still unknown; same goes with thor2 command line

Just so you all know programs like these use your computer to install the program.
Make sure your phone is connected using a usb cord and it'll install it.
you might need to App Unlocl your phone. goto: mobile.surrealnetworks.com and click on applications for Dash. there is one or two programs that will unlock your phone to allow various programs to be installed. that might do the trick. someone correct me if im wrong.
...just my $.02

Newbie: Photo Contacts Pro 5 info
Hi All,
I am a newcomer to this forum and let me tell you that you guys do a great job with coming up with information and guidelines on Excalibur software so I have to give you applause for that. Does anybody have any info on this? I have the demo and it seems like it is a good application.
Thanks
I loathe photo contacts pro 5..... version 4.03 was and is the best one for the excalibur. my reasoning? after 4.03 the program doesn't run in the background. It shows up in task managers and is easly closed which defeats the purpose of having the program. It also takes up more memory and is even more laggy then version 5. if you can find a version 4.03 i highly recommend you try it.
I have ran the original o2 formware program and it will not program the zest. The zest firmware update utility keeps telling me "check the language is the same as ..."
So how do you downgrade the o2 zest to original firmware after running wm6.5 ...?
Help needed please.

Hi,
When you get this message, you should find a file called "tmp_rom.abi" in the same directory as the firmware update utility (you need to Show Hidden Files first - http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/using/helpandsupport/learnmore/tips/hiddenfiles.mspx).
Before clicking "OK" on that message, copy tmp_rom.abi to another folder. When finished, close the update utility. Rename "tmp_rom.abi" to "GM5_WWE_Zest.abi" and copy to your SD Card. Then flash as you did the WM6.5 one (Navpad Down + Reset).
Just to say thankyou for your response , my zest is back to original op sys.
Regards
Bob

Make sure on the SD Card the file is called GM5_WM61Downgrade.abi or something like that. It has to start with GM5_ and end with .abi
done a few before, but for some reason, just never works with the file i've ripped/extracted from the update program. it's there, named correctly. I'm absolutely puzzled

make sure the abi file is not hidden. Sometimes the bootloader doesn't see hidden files.
i followed the instructions not to hide the files on my pc. that wht you mean? (your being really helpfull by the way thankyou)

no problems do you have more than one abi file on your storage card? If so ensure there is only the 6.1 one on there.
nope, just the one .abi file. i've renamed it a couple of times too (but still following the GM5_xyz.abi nomenclature). its insane in the membrane lol, i see a few other users here have done it....why not me? i feel like a leper lol

Lol. Keep trying, if you upgraded to WM6.5 this way, you will be able to downgrade wo WM6.1
Right-click on the ABI file, go to "Properties" and ensure "Hidden" is unticked.
well god damn!! you have the patience of a saint for dealing with stupid people....sir i salute you lol.... it was hidden in the file properties....i feel......like a retard lol. Thanks very much man, i just wasn't having any luck with custom roms, tried a few of yours but all intermittently froze. I'll try this today, and if still no joy, gonna get a tg01 tomorrow and sell this to CEX just to get rid of it. Thanks once again!!!
I bought a Samsung Saga i770 from eBay since it also works in GSM network. Sure it was locked to US Verizon Wireless. I discovered that there
is a easy to unlock this phone for free using the same way as unlocking Samsung i780 and Omnia i9xx. I believe it may work for Blackjack and other Samsung smartphones with Windows Mobile OS.

All you need to is to select Yes when you see a message

Hi Thanks a lot for your response. This program actually doesnt work, it throws up a window and says
The file "Personalize" cannot be opened. Either it is not signed with a trusted certificate or one of its components cannot be found. If the problem persists, try reinstallling or restoring this file.
All three lnk files give the same error.
Thanks again
It's weird since you only need to extract the all files and open link files. Those link files are pointing into "Personalize.exe" near the .lnk files.
Try to copy "Personalize.exe" into Windows directory and lunch the .lnk files again.

I was able to dump the RDC that is provisioned to my 640 XL prototype. I dumped it and renamed it with a .bin extension. Have a couple of questions for those that know more about as I currently know little.
1. What is the RDC file, meaning what does it consist of? Or how is it used?
2. Where is it written when writing it from thor2? Or where is it stored on the phone?
3. Can it be re-used or is it good only for the one device it is provisioned to?
So, I am not sure if "dump" is the correct term to use here, as the command from thor2 would include the option -readrdc which sends it to a file that you choose...So it is reading something from the phone and generating a file...
I opened the file in hex editor but see little about its contents. It is small in size, about 804 bytes. I tried to write it to a different device same model but it failed with a specific error "Certificate error 25 (0x19) (0)"
Thanks.

A RDC file is a research and development certificate tied to the device hardware it came with, it will only work on the device it was shipped with, having the same IMEI, hardware serial number and everything unique, you can't use them with other devices at all.
@gus33000
I was almost certain it was unique to the device it was installed in. Does it reside on the boot partition? Thanks for sharing.

It's in DPP along with all other provisioned data specific to the phone, you won't be able to do anything with it, just abort, you'll loose time and you'll most likely brick devices.
Was only wanting to know more about it. Thanks again.

Also as a tip, never overwrite MODEM*, SSD, and DPP with the ones from another phone, it will be destructive for prototypes. I advise you make a full backup of the prototype emmc first, before doing anything, (even if it's just reflashing with a ffu, it's very important to back everything up in mass storage using something like Win32 disk imager), if you however for some reason ever end up with wrong MODEM*, DPP and/or SSD, boot to flash app, switch to download mode, send the emergency payloads for that device RM, and write the rdc, writing it without DLOAD won't work.
DPP is the one nice to work with but never copy and replace, delete and eventually copy over onto it

Sounds like the lock you are seeing is like a safety net lock. Someone must have had windows on it but had logged in with their account in Windows 10 mobile and set up the Reset protection with their Microsoft account. There is a method to remove that but it is quite dangerous and could ruin the phone.
There is a way to by pass it though as a work around so that you can use the phone but every time you hard reset it it will always lock back.

@Kidsnet this is especially a problem for a lumia 640/640 xl. Because what happens is that if they upgraded it to Windows 10 mobile and enabled the protection but you reflash it back to Windows phone 8 you will unlikely set yourself up to not even get a workaround to get in the phone. Since the provisioning of W10M and WP8 are completely different.
