removed "firmware" files in z1c-44-uk.system.flashable.zip?

i'm currently trying to make a flashable zip with my "own" firmware "D5503_14.3.A.0.681_EURO LTE"
when i compared the the content of systems.tgz from the file z1c-44-uk.system.flashable.zip with the system.sin file of my firmware i noticed a bunch of files are missing in the tgz file.
so i looked at D5503_14.3.A.0.681_Generic UK.ftf and noticed the firmware files are there.
Different files in system
D5503_14.3.A.0.681_EURO LTE vs 1c-44-uk.system.flashable.zip

"lightbox_next": "Next",

D5503_14.3.A.0.681_Generic UK vs 1c-44-uk.system.flashable.zip
why were these files removed in the flashable zip?

Are you talking about the z1c-44-uk.system.flashable.zip from my guide here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2688933 ?
I didn't remove any files, I built it directly from the system.sin (mounted it in ubuntu).
All those files in your last picture are inside my system.tgz.

your right, seems like they are symlinks and winrar does not unpack them on my pc unless you start it as admin ?!?

No idea. I recommend to not use windows for stuff like that anyway. Just set up a ubuntu vm with VirtualBox. You also don't need any extra tools there. Just unpack the system.sin to system.ext4 with flashtool and mount it under ubuntu.

for everything else i'm using the same setup as your are: virtualbox with ubuntu :good:

Where are the updates located on disk?

Hi Does anyone know where the updates are located on the disk?
My phone is rooted.
I.e. when the system, phone updates download.

C:\Data\SharedData\DuShared

Edit.
Just checked that location and there are very little files in there. My phone is trying to schedule a reboot so I expected it to have a gig or so of files

Before preparing for install are there.....then, i realy dont know .... inside \windows\imageupdate? you may try to search for spkg files.

ahh interesting, I'll have a poke around. Yes this has gone past the downloading stage and past the preparing so I guess they are now elsewhere

Let me know if you find .

I will but I am not having much luck. I suspect in going past the preparing stage the files may have been moved into the boot folders ready for an install startup.

are you speaking about it:
nokia.service_ndtksvc.generic.spkg_9e457088fdbc746a1314fabe78001a92468fa209.cab or
15606399_microsoft.mobilecore.updateos.spku.cab?
my phone download this cab on low battery(specially), so phone didn't not suffered packages.
packages 8.1(Windows Phone\Phone\Data\SharedData\DuShared\PackagesToInstall ):
Download mail cloud(russian site).
Packages w10m 10586.71:
Windows Phone\Phone\Data\SharedData\DuShared\PackagesToInstall
( 19935598_Microsoft.MainOS.Production.spkg.cab or other):
mail cloud(russian site)

I don't remembered exactly for w10,
but on WP 8.1 download all update packages here.
C:\Data\SharedData\DuShared\Download
After the preparation goes here.
C:\Data\System\ImageUpdate\bla..bla..bla
On W10M.
C:\Data\Microsoft'or'SoftwareDistributor(dont remind)\downloads.
after preparation goes same dir.
are you looking for Ndtk ?
It's firmware package come from Nokia "OEM" not MSFT.
I guess they will not block ndtk on older device such as wp8-8.1 series.
so collect all necessary packages when oem releases their firmware updates.
One More thing, stay ready to catch device specific firmware packages for W10M (as they will be retail cab's)
Possibilities of the cooking fresh retail ROM, I've trick to resign modded ffu.
Production images can be flash on any retail device.(production images accepts msft test cabs, like including tshell)
much more things coming soon after w10m release
cheers....

I've deployed the app via WPV XAP Deployer 2.0 , Once done , App keeps on loading

Or install interoptool appxbundle. Or restart phone. Or disable enable developer mode.

Buddy if you have updated Extras+info app then I cant help you.
I used this tool to interop unlock my Lumia 540 on older windows 10 mobile versions but now it's not working anymore on 586.420
If you are on older win10 version Just enable developer options, deploy it using WPV Xap deploy tool, open app and from templates enable interop.
I actually interop unlocked my fone and then permanent interop unlocked it so now whenever I update windows I don't need to do that again.
Another simple way is to downgrade to win8.1, interop unlock and permanent interop unlock that and update to win10 again.

hello guyz. its working now . it says success what to do next?

RTFT of vcfan.

sorry but what is that ? i really want to change my font any tuts for it my friend ? please>?

Microsoft removing Unsupported devices ROMs ?

Hey there everyone .
Seems Microsoft starting to remove old phones packages from their server or at least WDRT no longer show packages
I think it's not bad to share Stock ROMs we have from every device to be able to unlock boot loader and etc. in the future .

9XX ROMs

1020 ROMs :
1320 ROMs:

Reserved

no, just tried it (removed the data from the kits folder and fired up the wdrt) -> shows normally the rom that it will download (920,rm-821). and they will never remove them! most likely just some server issues atm that doesnt allow you to connect correctly

Yes I tried 2 L920s both of them weren't find firmware but 925 were OK . I don't know maybe a server issue caused that but I don't have a good feeling about it.

could you check if the files for your rm and product code are downloable via lumiafirmware.com? iirc they only link to the ms servers

but thats to restore wp 8.1, why would they remove that? I mean its quite possible that they do but its just beyond evil at this point, they even recommend people go back to 8.1 so how hypocrite would that be
still, a good idea to store all our roms on a torrent or something, just in case

That is very strange :| Device product ID is 059S0R9
I never find this product on lumiafirmware , mrcrab and also on a bing search :|
seems this phone never released :|
Edit : I read the product wrong . I read it 05950R9 but It was 059S0R9
I found it on lumiafirmware and it's downloadable but I can't find it on WDRT
Also i think LumiaFirmware site doesn't link to WDRT server

or maybe it use I don't know I copied a link sample above .

Developer Menu Application - For WPInternals unlocked phones ONLY

Some people may have never heard of developermenu.efi, it's an efi application Microsoft mostly uses on test devices which allows you to do many things, here are the main highlights:
Note: if some people have a problem with getting this efi to display something, please use this one: https://forum.xda-developers.com/windows-10-mobile/exe-binaries-binaries-w10m-oem-kit-t3476453
Enter Mass Storage mode directly on the phone without the need of a computer.
Delete and dump the UEFI variable storage from the phone (be careful with this you can easily cause problems).
Tickle the battery to 0% (useful for re-calibration).
This EFI application is test signed, this means you must run it on an unlocked device.

}
It's also the latest available (from 15254.158).
You can create a new entry in BCD for a new bootapplication and reference it in the place you did put the efi. You also must make sure you turn on nointegritychecks on it because it's test signed.
For reference here's what Microsoft actually does to BCD when installing it (aside from nointegritychecks):
You must place the files attached in EFIESP\windows\system32\boot\
Provided are also the latest bmpx files which enables graphical status when you're in mass storage (also works when switched using WPInternals).

What doesn't display? The menu or when you enter the mass storage section? That efi should defintely work except maybe on rs2+, didn't check everything but I vaguely remember MS breaking feature manifest policies with rs2.

I can't actually make a tutorial now because each people have their own way of loading entries from bootmgr, but I have planned making a whole post about bootmgr and bcd entries and how to have multiple of them on a lumia device in the future, afterwards sure.

Please make tutorial using bcdedit

I have BSOD on 950
UPD: My fault, i had efi file on wrong partition

So I do have a question on this, it is the 'Reset your phone' inside "About" that we use to open this, right? (running 10586 on a htc one m8, trying to follow your guide on unlocking the bootloader)
update: nevermind, its a hard reset and not a factory reset
