All the XML files can be restored but you have to cautious as the mbn files can not be restored. They include some vendor specification files that contain some symbols that cannot be used on cross models.
5.

After you click on Start, “8974_msimage.mbn” will be sent to your phone and you will hear an USB eject and plug sound from your computers.
6. Now you can close the Msm8974 Download Tool. After closing it press the power button and the volume up button together for some time which will reset Qualcomm 9006 port to 9008 again.
