Once done, you can begin to re-apply the wim files you captured back to their original partitions, and you should have a very optimized VHD. To be extra safe, you may also want to open the Windows Defragmentation tool, it features built in support for slab optimization which is specifically made for VHD files, if youвЂ™re using the GUI, simply click optimize and your VHD will be optimized. This way we will be sure there will be no data remaining across the VHD and every sector will be unallocated.

Once done, you need to perform a slow format operation on the partitions youвЂ™re working with, and only these. Repeat this process for every partition you need to care about. To image said partition, use DISM to capture the partition to a wim file. For example if you are working with Windows Phone, you need to care about the MainOS and Data partitions. What you need to do next, is image all partitions that contain a known file system and that are not a bootloader partition. Once done, you should have a virtual disk with your phone eMMC contents. Detach the phone, and mount the VHD/VHDX file on your computer using Disk Management (diskmgmt.msc).Capture the phone eMMC to a VHD/VHDX file.

Download a program that can allow you to capture the phone eMMC as a VHD or VHDX file on Windows.

Instead hereвЂ™s what I suggest people to use: Some of these options allow you to make a FFU image directly from an attached phone in mass storage, but I do not recommend you to use this, as itвЂ™s very unsafe and you wonвЂ™t perform any optimization. c, -chunk-size (Default: 131072) Chunk size to use for the FFU file o, -os-version (Default: 1.0) Operating system version. a, -anti-theft-version (Default: 1.1) Anti theft version. A path to the img file to convert *OR* a PhysicalDisk path. Required option 'f, ffu-file' is missing. Img2ffu has built in help, hereвЂ™s what it looks like: img2ffu 1.0.0.0Д¬opyright (c) 2019, Gustave Monce - / Copyright (c) 2018, Rene Lergner - option 'i, img-file' is missing. This is not really wanted by anyone, so you need to take special measures. img2ffu does not in any way erase unallocated sectors from the eMMC, this means if the tool is not used properly you may cause glitches on your device, like that one:ДЄn engineering device booting with a corrupt firmware The issue with img2ffu is that it performs 10% of the required optimizations that Microsoft official tooling may actually do. This effectively can allow you, if used properly, to flash a 32GB img file, converted to an FFU file, in under 2 minutes. Img2ffu allows you to convert complete eMMC images into usable FFU files, allowing quick flashing times and space optimization. I thus decided to try to implement this optimization by essentially writing an on the fly FFU generation algorithm, which worked to some degree, but it later ended up being re-used into another project, img2ffu. The exploit used by WPinternals involves faking a FFU file header, but the implementation still required some optimization. Starting with version 2.0 the tool added support for вЂњSpec BвЂќ devices, which are essentially newer generation devices using a new bootloader architecture by Qualcomm. Some of you know about WPinternals, itвЂ™s a tool made by that can be used to unlock the bootloader of many Nokia Lumia devices.

This post is aimed to explain you how to use this tool.Д«ut first letвЂ™s talk about what made me write such tool. However this tool was never meant for wide use since itвЂ™s not finished and requires special instructions to be used properly and safely for a device. Some of you may have also noticed a tool I open sourced on github that enables you to exactly do this. YouвЂ™ve probably been aware since a few months that IвЂ™m able to make FFU firmwares for Lumia devices that are flashable on retail unlocked devices without any issue.
