| Function | Description | Key Use Case | | :--- | :--- | :--- | | | Allows reading from and writing to the NAND flash chip, including the serial number (SN), model, region (country), color, and Wi-Fi/Bluetooth addresses. | Data recovery and transfer between chips. | | Memory Expansion | Enables the physical replacement of a small-capacity NAND chip with a larger one, effectively upgrading the device's storage capacity. | Upgrading an iPhone from 64GB to 256GB. | | Wi-Fi/Bluetooth Unbinding | Removes the binding between the Wi-Fi/Bluetooth module and the data stored on the NAND chip. This is essential when replacing a faulty Wi-Fi module, as it prevents software conflicts. | Fixing Wi-Fi/Bluetooth issues after a hardware module replacement. | | Underlying Data Modification | Provides the ability to modify the NAND's underlying data, which includes kernel and system files. This can be used to repair software-related issues that prevent a device from booting. | Resolving boot loops or "bricked" devices caused by corrupted system data. | | Batch Burning | Supports mass burning of NAND chips, allowing a technician to program multiple chips with the same data quickly and efficiently. | Large-scale device preparation or production of pre-programmed replacement chips. | Hardware schematics change constantly
If you only have an IMEI, the WL software can help generate the necessary Wi-Fi and Bluetooth addresses required for activation after a device flash. Precautions
