CPU - This is the central processing unit. It has the hardware keys
UFS - This is the storage chip. It has all the user data, but it's encrypted
RAM - This is not a paired IC. You can replace it. But it is installed on top of the CPU, so you might as well transfer it over, unless you damage it or it's shorted
EEPROM - This is the "Pin Code IC". I honestly don't know the name of this chip, but you need to transplant it as well. Otherwise the phone will not accept the correct pin code & data is not recoverable without it.
During the boot up process, the UFS and CPU talk to each other, so it can boot up the lock screen. If the original CPU and UFS are not booting together, the user's data is not recoverable at all.
There is no tool or method to extract the user data without the CPU fully working. So if it gets damaged or lost, then it's game over.
I hope this info helps!
If you have a Seek Thermal Cam, you're missing out if you don't have a VCC Seek Stand: https://www.vccboardrepairs.com/buy-seek-stand
Injured Gadgets just got these back in stock, so get them while you can!
It can take us a while to build these out sometimes, so they're sometimes out of stock for a while, but we're working towards always having inventory ready to build more as they sell out.
This stand makes using a thermal cam so easy. So much better than any other thermal solution on the market.
It allows you to get real close up (using my Macro Lens), and easily find where the short is coming from.
Plus it's hard free, so you can have your hands free to try to boot the device from DCPS, while having an image that is in focus & not moving around.
You can even record a video through the app, while you inject voltage into the short, so you can go back & see exactly which component was it that was heating up.
Save yourself lots of time by getting a Seek Cam, Stand & Macro Lens! ...
