Hi Klaus, I took a holiday from thinking too hard about phone hacking
Seeing as my mother will be a light user, I won't try to change her paging files. I have a 950 XL with a broken screen somewhere, I might dig it up some time and try WoA as well :15:

There is WoA on both and there the rabbit runs a little bit differently.

I have been on too many adventures "down the rabbit hole" recently

Why do you want to do this, what advantage should it bring? Are you afraid that your mother will play with it? You can also delete the IT. Most changes are made in the registry, what has been changed remains until it is changed again, whether IT is on the WP or whether it is not on it.

I took your advice and didn't try to alter the manifest!

Yes, the VCReg method is only supported up to 1607, with the update to 1703 or higher the adjustments by VCReg are set back to the Windows standard. With WPI you can unlock the boot loader for every build, but you cannot run root access for every build. Please read the "Getting started" exactly. Visit the official site, Rene has also made a nice video in which he briefly describes how it works (english).

I looked into this, unfortunately my 950 is already too "new" for WP Internals, it only supports up to version 15254.547, when I am on 15254.603...

This method for "x50 devices" uses vcREG to replace NDTK, after reading the last of that thread I'm nervous to touch my 950!

You can switch on the backup under All Settings / Update and Security / Backup, a backup file is created on OneDrive which can also be used by other devices connected to this account. You can also set which app data should be included in the backup. Under All Settings / Accounts / Sync Settings you will find further options that can be synchronized with the connected account. This service still works for Windows 10.

The paths are taken from the German menu navigation, which is different in the Hungarian menu navigation, but I don't think.

If you want a real backup and don't want to knot your brain, you will end up at WPI again. With WPI you can create backups of the partitions EFIESP, MainOS and Data, all three together result in a full flash backup. You can use the created backup to extract individual data or you can play it back or create a ROM from it. For custom ROM you have to read yourself, I never get to it because I am so lazy.

You're right it still works! But the SMS backup service has stopped now...
I got excited when I found https://forum.xda-developers.com/windows...m-t3404216 and https://protobetatest.com/2018/08/20/rdc...to-do-now/
I am not afraid of command line tools, but I don't think there is a method to do this until I have mass storage access.
I don't think you are lazy! Thank you for answering all my questions, in English as well

I have dug out a 640 to use as my test phone, although I just discovered it is SIM-locked...
