- Hello Hackers! In this video, i show how easy it can be to remove the internal storage from some Android phones and read them with an eMMC reader using this chip of data recovery technique.

The video that gave me the idea • Turning a broken iPhon... - Наука та технологія
Quick shout on the chip removal - use loads of a heavy solids flux before applying heat - it will make the removal much easier & will preserve the balling on the chip where no solder/thin solder won't. And don't start poking/prying the chip until you are sure it's loose, as that will also pull the balling/pads. Patience is key. And rosin flux.. loads of rosin flux.
Good tips!
Is it possible to remove the internal storage from a Samsung J3 (2016) model phone? Last week mine stopped working and I had this one for 5 years, and I'm really in need of all my data, so I asked to have my old motherboard along with the new one.
Hey man, this video was helpful! Just one question, would the equipment you used in this video also be able to flash the chip as well as just read from it?
It mounts the drive via USB so it's writable too :)
@@manchestergreyhats6032 nice thanks for getting back to me
I'm working on a personal project at the minute, might I be able to dm you with some discussion? Do you have anything like a discord that we might be able to talk on a less public forum?
@@tomnm1 If you're on twitter, you can DM me there (@jayHarris_sec).
any luck that this method would work with Chromebooks that have an emmc sandisk?
Will this emmc ball joint socket reader work to boot from like a live usb in any device you wish to power with this on?
Hmm good question. I'm not sure tbh but I suspect it could work assuming the emmc chip contains a bootable OS compiled for the hardware.
@@manchestergreyhats6032 in my case yes as as the cpu and ram went toast in it over a year ago but is there anything I need to look out for being comparability issues at the pre-installed phone os being old paired together with the hardware having different specifications than what the other version was made for?
If the memory has videos and photos, if we change it to USB, will the photos and videos come out?
Here is a try for you if you like and want to
Also remove a side project chromebook with mods of corse put the phones emmc there then flash a Linux distro on it then desolder it again then put it back into the phone i always wondered if that would work but do look for the pinouts there is several
hey. if deleted picture can recover too?
for emmc 5.1 (the one from lenovo zuk z2 ), that's is possible? i would
pay a service for recoverying all my data... there so much photos and i
didn't any backup i'm so frustated aff
Hi. I'm not an expect so can't say for sure but I do know Android 5 and above uses encryption with keys stored in hardware so it won't be as easy as the devices I used. You should probably try and contact a data recovery expert though as they would be able to give you a definitive answer. Good luck!
Hey bro do you reckon you can do this at home or best giving the phone to specialist as I don't want them to look thro my photos of videos of they can get data from the emmrc chip
Depending on the phone it's doable at home although newer phone won't be as easy. It's best to practice with some test phones in my opinion, before trying with the actual one. I think most reputable specialists won't look through your files after confirming they're accessible although it's always a risk!
Thanks bro.. am not really good with stuff like this.. just wondering if the phone has been opened up from a normal phone store.. That has been booted is there a chance, to get the data back or is it all deleted permanently..
And do you specialise in stuff like this.. sounds like you know what you're talking abaut..
Hi! I'm sorry, i don't quite understand your question. Do you mean when you buy a phone that has had the data deleted? Depending on the phone, it might be possible to recover some data but there's no guarantee.
As for learning things like this, I just like playing with technology! When you play around with enough stuff, you start to figure out how it all works.
If i give you my device would you be able to have a look at it for me.. As I don't really want to try to attempt the data recovery myself and mess it all up..
@@ibzy3023 I'm sorry but I don't offer data recovery services. I'm just someone that enjoys learning about technology. If you google for data recovery services though, i'm sure you'll find some companies with lots more experience than me who can help!
Oh that's fine thanks for the reply..
Wanted to ask if I try getting the data chip out of my phone.. And purchase all socket from amazon will most data chip go into the all socket or would it have to be a percific one..
And when pluging the all socket SD card on laptop will I be able to read it off the data chip. if anything that is left on the data chip..
hi bro, is that work with galaxy s2 emmc?
that's why i throw my old electronics into active volcano pits
hahaha good advice! My older devices stay in a drawer until I can destroy them. Newer devices are all encrypted and wiped :D
I need open software for this
hi, what's the name of that device that you are using to reaf the chip?
It's this www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B076LYM3PY
Yo bro… my phone is dead due water damage. I can buy 10 other phones but the data is priceless. It’s a Motorola phone. If I take off this eMMC chip aka internal SD card… would I be able to get the data???
Friend that process is so important for me... Can you tell me what is that product?? 3:13
You mean the pen looking thing? It's a flux pen but you can also get it in jars or syringes.
Hey man thanks for the video. I've got a bit of a problem with an old samsung note 5 phone.
My wife passed away in 2019 and I just now was given her phone back by the police but theres a pin on the lock screen. No one knows the pin and this phone is full of baby pics and videos and the last videos of us as a family... and there seems to be no way to recover any of that besides physically pulling the chip and reading the data.
I'm fairly adept at working with hardware but I only have one shot at this. As of right now the phone is 100% fine and works. Is there ANYONE I can send it to for this data recovery?
I've tried for weeks to find a solution and keep hitting dead ends. If theres any hope at all please let me know.
Sorry to hear that. I'm not familiar with that specific phone but there are often ways to bypass the PIN. I know Samsung have a find my phone thing that can unlock the device if you know the account login details (i.e email address and password). There are also tools that exist that can try and brute force the PIN. It'll take a while but should be doable. Finally I guess there are people that do data recovery but I don't know anyone specific I can recommend. Probably worth phoning around or doing some google searches for trusted people.
Note 5 phones don't use encryption just yet. You can flash TWRP, boot into that new recovery and your PC will just mount the file system. Just make sure you flash the correct version or you'll brick the phone (not a bad thing, you can flash the correct version after that without losing data)
@@ll-tf4et Hi bro, I have redmi note 6 pro and phone always at mi recovery 3.0 screen I tried all methods it but can't worked for me. Can I open my phone without data loss?
My condolences. I hope you figured it out.
@@derpnerpwerp funny you should mention it cause I was just talking to a phone tech the other day about it and sadly now it's still locked. I intend to do some looking into the above method and see what I can accomplish.
I really would love to get the pics and vids off the phone
How hard should I press on the chip w/ the soldering iron to remove the glue?
What solvent could I use to clean the chip?
I’m using a Sumsour 858D, at 350 degrees, holding heat on the chip for 1-2 minutes.
I want to avoid re-balling
I’m trying to recover 300k of dogecoin off a Samsung 153 ball point chip
and I’m a tight budget.
Thanks in advance ❣️👋😅
Greetings from Atlanta 📍
which software did you use to read the chip
It just mounts the chip like a USB device
