DESCRIPTION

The all members of xda-developers, and the author can not be held responsible for any damage to any of your devices after applying the following.

Technically, if you realize the flashing operation, you lose the warranty of your WP8 Nokia Lumia. However, I think that the "after sales services" do not watch it...

While NaviFirm closed there some time, the solutions exist to circumvent this problem. Nokia Care Suite is a solution. Note, that there are other methods such as NaviFirm+ (3.0) (for only download Stock ROM), Nokia Software Updater for Retail (4.1.0) (for download and flash Stock ROM). This tutorial, will deal that the method with Nokia Care Suite, because is the solution more complete than the other methods. This may serve to downgraded, flashed, *unbranded, unbricked, updated your WP8 Nokia Lumia. By cons, the flashing operation will not desimlock your WP8 Nokia Lumia!

Note there are certainly similar tutorials on xda-developers and elsewhere, but I wanted to post this because all the tutorial dealing with this subject in my opinion its not very clear. Also what are the latest versions in date of Nokia Care Suite and of Data Package Manager.

To illustrate my example (this is just example among many other), I take a Nokia Lumia 920 with such as Product Code/Stock ROM 059Q8C2 RM-821 VAR EU FR CV BLACK (3047.0000.1326.2002 GDR2, Lumia Amber). I emphasize the fact that this is just an example, I could very well do the manipulations with Nokia Lumia 1520 for example, or any other WP8 Nokia Lumia.

If you have any problems with this tutorial, error flash, etc... please, post report on this thread and with a screenshot!
Also note, that you can click on the images to enlarge.

If, after the flash of a Stock ROM, the "systems" apps (extra+info, glance, etc...) are not update, I recommend you download and install the SysApp Pusher app, that will help you to these put apps update.

Please, answer this poll "Among the WP8 Nokia Lumia following, which you flash?", at the top of this thread.
This tutorial is also available in French on the Génération mobiles forum and on the MonWindowsPhone forum.

*Unbranded allows removing operators settings by changing of ROM. This allow get the features/options not "flanged" and generally have updates more quickly than if you were branded.

PREREQUISITES




AUTHENTICATION FILE FOR NOKIA CARE SUITE SERVER

 For Windows x86 (32 bits) PC

Copy the file UserGroupsConfiguration.cfg (therefore the decompressed file), in the three following directories:
  • "C:\Programmes\Nokia\Nokia Care Suite\Data Package Manager\bin" (essential for using Data Package Manager category).
  • "C:\Programmes\Nokia\Nokia Care Suite\Multi Software Updater 5.0" (not useful for the tutorial, but essential to use the Multi Software Updater 5.0 category).
  • "C:\Programmes\Nokia\Nokia Care Suite\Product Support Tool For Store 5.0" (not useful for the tutorial, but essential to use the Product Support Tool For Store 5.0 category).

For Windows x64 (64 bits) PC

Copy the file UserGroupsConfiguration.cfg (therefore the decompressed file), in the three following directories:
  • "C:\Program Files (x86)\Nokia\Nokia Care Suite\Data Package Manager\bin" (essential for using Data Package Manager category).
  • "C:\Program Files (x86)\Nokia\Nokia Care Suite\Multi Software Updater 5.0" (not useful for the tutorial, but essential to use the Multi Software Updater 5.0 category).
  • "C:\Program Files (x86)\Nokia\Nokia Care Suite\Product Support Tool For Store 5.0" (not useful for the tutorial, but essential to use the Product Support Tool For Store 5.0 category).

DOWNLOAD STOCK ROM

  • Run Nokia Care Suite software and double-click on the Data Package Manager category. Click on OK for authenticate on Nokia Care Suite Server.




  • If for one reason or another, the authentication with the Nokia Care Suite Server is not performed, so click on Work offline and on Ok. In the top left of the Data Package Manager window, click on File, on Work Online and on Ok.
  • Fill in the two parameters Product Type and Product Code. Click on Search button. Right-click on file found and click on Download Selected and wait the completed download to 100%.

For only those, who have downloaded Stock ROM without using the Data Package Manager category (for example those who have gone through htcfanboys.com, mrcrab.net, NaviFirm+, etc...) you must copy the downloaded files in the following directory: C:/ProgramData/Nokia/Packages/Products/RM-XXX (where XXX is your RM (RM-XXX = Product Type, and you can find your RM with the link Product Type and Product Code), for example for me with my Nokia Lumia 920 it is RM-821).


FLASH STOCK ROM

  • Run Nokia Care Suite software and double-click on the Product Support Tool For Store 5.0 category. Click on Work offline. Stay in mode No connection.

  • In top left of the Product Support Tool For Store 5.0 window, click on File and then on Open Product. Find your WP8 Nokia Lumia, or in the Filter box, tap on keyboard the Product Type of your WP8 Nokia Lumia (in my case, a (RM-821) Nokia Lumia 920). Then click on Open.

  • Bottom left, click on Programming, and then click on Recovery.


  • Click on Update list. Select the Stock ROM downloaded. Click on Start. Wait a little that Product Support Tool For Store 5.0 verifies of data Packages integrity then it starts flashing operation, and it will show you an error (it indicates that the application has lost the connection, but this is normal because the phone is not connected).


  • Connect the USB end into the USB port of your PC. Turn off your WP8 Nokia Lumia. Connect the other USB end to the USB port of your WP8 Nokia Lumia. Press both the Power button and the Volume Down button. Once a vibration felt, click on Retry in Recovery window.

  • If a error message like this during flashing: "MSG_INVALID_SIZE_SECURE_FLASH_RESP: 0x00040006" If that happens, try changing the USB port where your WP8 Nokia Lumia is connected. For example, if it's a USB 3.0 port, try to connect it to a USB 2.0 port. 
  • If a message like this during flashing: "You have chosen not assigned product code for this device, do you wish to continue?" This is normal, it just means that the Product Code/Stock ROM chosen does not matches with that of the WP8 Nokia Lumia. But do not worry, this is quite normal. Click on OK.

  • Wait the flashing process. Click on Close.
