=I suggest to disable your antivirus since it may find a false positive virus and may delete it that can cause a lot of trouble.
=When the phone is in Mass storage mode it doesn't charge so it just drains battery,backing up your phone will drain battery even faster so please make sure it is charged at least 80%
=This tutorial works for all phone that are able to get their bootloader unlocked and able to boot in Mass Storage Mode[(all this can be done using WP Internals original thread (thread link here )]
=TUTORIAL=
1. First Download&Install Win32 Disk Imager here.
2. Boot your Windows Phone to Mass Storage Mode using WP Internals(I won't cover that part here)
3. A new Drive will appear in your My Computer/This PC(If Windows prompt to scan your drive do not otherwise it may damage your device
4. Open Win32 Disk Imager
5. Select Drive Letter of your phone.
6. Tap the folder icon ,select the folder you want to save the backup and in the file name : name your backup however you want and click Open

8. Done!
====
This is my first thread in xda.! :fingers-crossed: :fingers-crossed:
=If you want me to make a guide of unlocking bootloader,enabling root access and booting mass storage mode using WP internals in supported phone ,please give a thanks.
=I also have this set of engineering slb3 for some devices if you want to i will post here in xda
NOTE TO MODERATORS : If you think that i misplaced my thread please transfer it to another category.

Could you send a copy of your backup of your phone?
I flash my lumia525 to android without backup

Could you explain how to do step 2 :
2. Boot your Windows Phone to Mass Storage Mode using WP Internals(I won't cover that part here)

Can you restore the backup from one phone to another? I assume it has to be the exact same model though, right? I have an old Lumia 1020 that still has the good Weather app which works with the Glance mode along with some other apps no longer available in the store, so it might be nice to copy that device's ROM to a newer Lumia 1020 that doesn't have a broken SIM slot.

Can you do a guide on how to do back up and restore using WP Internals? Also restore using Win32 Disk Imager?

I have a grey ,en_gb, single sim 925 that i've just backed up using the info above ,worked ok.
I was wondering, if there was someone who had the same phone with Win10 RS1 installed and working ok
and they made a backup image .
Could their backup work ok on mine ?
Might be an easy way to do a offline update with any Win version after 107.
I have a feeling there's a catch to do with IMEI or something that would rule this out.
We probably would have seen this already if it was doable.

[Recovery] [Touch] Carliv Touch Recovery v2 for Celkon A63

Hey Celkon A63 users! I know there is no development for Celkon A63, but to burn the fire, I have made a CWM like (CWM base) recovery for Celkon A63 which mounts UBIFS partition.
If you will port the recovery directly from the CTR 2.1 for UBIFS, then you won't be able to mount the system and data partition. I have modified the recovery a bit and now it can mount system and data partition of Celkon A63!
The recovery is totally stable with no bugs. You can make backups, flash ROMs (I removed Xposed from this) and can also partition your SD Card.

Hello guys,today I want to share a recovery for MDPI(320*480) resolution Spreadtrum 8810(SC8810) devices.
ediyi ported this Recovery for K-Touch T619 which runs on Spreadtrum SC8810 using Android 2.3. I ported this, and it runs well on my HUAWEI Y220-T10.So I think this will also work on other similar devices.
You can port this recovery to your device, but before flashing it, check the /recovery partition size.Or it may BRICK YOUR DEVICE.
If you found that you can't touch on Recovery, then unpack the img, add your touchscreen driver lib file (it can be found in your /system/lib/modules) to unpacked /init.rd/sbin folder and open init.rc, after "on boot", add this line:
Code:
insmod /sbin/ YOUR LIB FILE NAME
[IMG]https://mega.nz/#!kJN30SQT!Cz1k6IBFWAVXeW5bc1iZM0hwYm2eqBD5z8T8hE_y0Gs[/IMG]
and then repack.I won't cover too much about porting recoveries…
This Recovery has two storages: one is /mnt/sdcard, the other is /data/media, but in fact this is a ……bug,sorry.This recovery supports two languages, Chinese and English.

Bugs:
/boot won't be mounted properly.
The storage sometimes is in a mess.

Thank you for your reading.

Thanks for the start, screen size
Ported to True 3.5, sc7715 cpu
There is no vold anywhere in this recovery, that's probably the storage problem,
I am still working on that, only have internal now
for anyone following,, I have not bent vold to my will (yet),, but
this img had no /etc/twrp.fstab,, that and manually adding mount dirs
to the image seems to have "solved" my problem
A bit messy tho

We finally have something other than Android!
Let me introduce: Ubuntu Touch for our phone!
Using @prashantp01's Vendor Dumpster V1.1.
This ROM is very much not ready for daily use, and probably never will, but it's still cool!
Ubuntu Touch is the touch/mobile friendly version of the popular Linux distribution, Ubuntu.
Using the steps listed below, you can boot it on your A8/A8+.
Bugs:
Y E S
What works:
Usually boots (unreliable)
Display works!
OpenGL Works!
WiFi usually works (unreliable, if you turn it off, you can't turn it back on)
Rotation works!
Brightness works!
Vibration works! (takes a minute or two to start working)
Installation:
Follow the instructions to install Vendor Dumpster V1.1.
Install the SaR Patch following the instructions.
Flash GlES_Updater.zip provided in downloads using TWRP.
Install the correct Halium boot image for your model. (TWRP -> Install -> Install Image -> Select your boot.img -> Select Boot from the list -> Swipe to flash)
(optional) Format data! (Not just simply wipe!) (This sometimes is required, sometimes isn't. If you can't boot, Try formatting then continuing from here!).
Flash the provided Ubuntu Touch ARM64 Rootfs GSI using TWRP.
Reboot to system
If you can't boot, do a hard reset a few times! (Vol Down + Power for 7 seconds)
Credits:
@MIDHUN.V.NADH For his work on getting the Galaxy Tab A 10.1 (2019) to run Ubuntu Touch. This is based on his work, and wouldn't have been possible without him!
@prashantp01 For his Vendor Dumpster.

Awesome job! This is perfect.
Goodjob friend
I would like to boot it off external sdcard though, since it would be dualbooting just like that Arch Linux ARM in another thread. (searching for a OS to move on, away from Android, Ubuntu Touch is very well suited for this, pmOS too, but Unity8/mir has that look to it...)
It's working, but what the passphrase? I think i didn't set it
