Iphone 7 Baseband shorted - GSM-Forum

benten127 · 02-01-2018, 12:03

Hello everyone,

A customer come to my shop for an iphone 7 with very important data on it (dropped on the ground...) after search, i found the baseband shorted... My question is about this ****ing chip. Is it possible to change it with programmer? Cause i am not sure about this: I have see the programmer Jc pro 1000 for example, wich can read/write EEPROM BASEBAND chip, but not the BASEBAND itself? So is it possible to read and reprogramm the baseband?

If not, is the iphone 7 can boot without the baseband? just for recover data.

Thanks in advance for informations

Currently there is no method of programming a baseband cpu. If it's dead...it's dead.

it is not possible to replace it simply because it is ROM Read ONLY MEMORY it can be programmed once at the factory of Qualcomm/ Intel

Yes, but you have seen the reball of the original BB chip. it is to reprogram the imei into the new eprom memory. it is not possible to program the modem firmware into the BB chip.

The last BB chip that went to program was for iP3-4. From 4s can not be programmed.
