Hi ,
Well i got My Tool Few Days Back After a Delay of 1 Month In Indian Customs .I would Like To Ask The Pros Out there

1 :Starting Point to Learn The Basic Concepts
2 :Your Success Rate with the product

I had some cased in SD and USB Flash Drives .My success rate with the product so far is 0% .I Have a Long Way to go And Learn .I am a Good Learner Provided Someone Points Me To the Right Direction .I am Reading the Manual Also Very Aggressively But No Clue is There As a Basic Starting Guide .this is this and that is That is What they Say .

In fact it is pretty hard to learn from manuals I think.

U must be familiar with flash technology, read datasheets, get deep into flash images...
SD cards and USB sticks with single flash IC are the best to start with, the mix is probably the easiest.

Agree.

Go pick up some cheap 256mb/512mb sticks of various manufacturers, put some pictures on them and try to recover from chips.

Hello Pepe Sir And PCImage ,

Well Getting Sd Cards With Single controller and Cheap Pen Drives With Single NAND Flash is not a Hassel for Me ,Neither Is Electronics ,but My Issue Is That I Just Need a Pointer As To How To Progress With The Work .Just A Basic concept Like do This then Check this Do This this thats Its .If you Both Can Just Help Me The initial Kick start I would Be Extremely Grateful .I Have Still Not finished the ACELAB Manual but I Am Seriously thinking Of Getting Softcenter i Have a Few SD Cards and USB Pen Drives Currently To Play Around .According To Me S\\Getting Salvation Data tool Would Be No Use And Its Based On Manual analysis of all Data that ACELAb Can Also do .I Remember One Post From Our Fellow Community Member giving Out Some Tips To ACE Developers About Lots of Issues .

Well, until u completely understand how these devices work, neither tool will be useful I think.
Once u understand the structure, U will be able to use the tools (SC needs pretty much understanding, and I think ACE too).

I have done some chips, very easy when the controller is in the database.

Is almost automatic.


But also have other hard cases to see ....
