No Legs, No Problem: Dumping BGA MCP NAND Flash

By: /u/fatpengoo β€” February 10th 2026 at 19:47

In an attempt to sharpen my hardware hacking skills, I took on the challenge of extracting firmware off a flip phone πŸ“±.

But... I kind of underestimated my opponent:

- No trace of the firmware online

- No OTA updates

- Debug interface nowhere to be found

- The chip holding the firmware has no legs

Quite the challenge.
I ended up dead-bugging the chip and wiring it to the Xgecu T48 Flash programmer.
Enjoy!
