[@ChrisAnderson-cb9cs]

Awesome work!!! Question: if it's possible to do all of that, then wouldn't it be possible to edit the data inside the chip to essentially put hekate/atmosphere in eMMC itself and avoid needing the entire mod chip altoghether?

[@sthetixofficial]

not possible. it needs a modchip

[@carb_rta]

unchipped switch would probably refuse to boot something unsigned

[@falconmick]

A part of the boot up procedure of the CPU is that it checks the integrity of the software it is loading, the mod chip both tricks the CPU into loading the wrong boot file from your SD card AND glitches the CPU startup to skip over check

It's obvious you killed your eMMC. Even if the chip is readable using a tool, it doesn't mean it's 100% functional.

[@OswaldoMTZ-w6q]

Stethix said in the comments that 360 degrees was not the temperature and that it was really 200 degrees that his hot gun threw 🤣 that's why the chip didn't die, but the other people who wanted to try by having different seasons ended up throwing more heat. Really , the heat also depends on how close or far they are pointing, but it seemed strange to me that it even said that using 400 degrees with SKHYNIX was crazy 🤣

[@astral5322]

Thank you but that tool is very expensive. Is there any other way to clone or transfer the data to the other emmc. Can it be done the same way of installing higher capacity emmc the way you did one before?

you can transfer in hekate. backup and then restore. just do backup before heating chip

actually there are many emmc reader and writer out there. the UFI is not a subscription type, once you buy it, it will work forever. You can recover the data only if the emmc chip is healthy enough or not 100% dead. i bought it locally but you can buy it on aliexpress.

Is my emmc dead after less than a month?

[@sthetixofficial]

The picofly probably killed your emmc data or screwed it up. You better replace that pico with a proper chip, like the instinct-nx or the older hwfly, then do the level1 or the level2 unbrick guide.

​@@sthetixofficial Thank you! I will try with another chip. I randomly ordered one from aliexpress.

[@adnerayala3409]

[@TheFlyingHernie]

Bro ise ufi lite that comes with ufi box kit that is used for reading user data that 5 hours cut down to about 30 min to 50min

[@sthetixofficial]

it depends on the settings too.

Nice work. Very clean and neat. Isnt 360C too much for the EMMC? I will be doing a 0DATA permanant mod and I'm afraid to go this hot.

[@sthetixofficial]

360 is about 200 on my hot air rework station

[@h.a.6790]

The problem is when you have less heat you may risk your other components because it will take you longer to melt the solder. I think someone on youtube already tested this, the less time you spend the least damage incurs.

[@engelsgarde7317]

@@sthetixofficial In your Dat0 guide you heated the chip to 260 degrees. How much is that roughly? And how do you know that the temperature is so different.

[@sthetixofficial]

about 200c, but i found that heating the dat0 is not an ultimate way to solve the issue. the emmc ball could break in half someday. the safest way is to just slip the dat0 without heating it but use the four anchors version.

[@engelsgarde7317]

@@sthetixofficial I only found the adapter with 4 point anchors on aliexpress. And unfortunately it's not available in my region. Is there an alternative?

Is there a way to tell if the console has Hynix or Samsung by SN or manufacture date?

samsung

@@sthetixofficial Ok. 👍 Thanrs!

[@gembur3]

Can it upgrade the chip from 64 to 128 or 256?

[@sthetixofficial]

you can but not using this tool, you need to use linux to expand the user partition

i would like to reciver tbe emmc data from a 10 years old phone, i might buy the tools and try but it seems not really easy and might risk breaking it

[@sthetixofficial]

yes it is hard to do the operation.
