A1708 EMC 3164 problems detecting - GSM-Forum

Hi
I have this type of MAC book that I am unable to detect it. Just one time I detected it and now no success. I have a question for the team. If the model number is supported but EMC not listed as supported should it work already by HDB?. Because I also had an A1466 model and EMC number was not listed as supported and I finished it successully. I am thinking that as long as the SPI is detected it should be done by HDB, or maybe I am wrong?

Should I work without battery or with battery? should I keep the power button pressed during the whole procedure? Any advice is highly appreciated

And is model selection of any importance?
there are 3 models of A1708 in software

Nice work!

Well, for there are a lot of moudules of Apple computers and laptops. So when we put the list we only listed the lastest moudules that moment. So the list do not covered all the moudules.

So all the moudules except the moudules after 2018 can be done by HDBox.

Thanks
HDB Team

Do not open share your back-ups of your computer. They contain your computer SN, and a few other private details, i will NOT list them here because they are private details and they should remain private. Sending a backup file via PM is ok, via EMAIL is ok, but do not list your SN, or openly share the file containing it.

For that pourpose we implemented that 'private mode' checkbox in our software, masks computer name, email, sn so people can post screen shoots without worring much about someone stealing bits of their information.

Best regards.
