It means that controller has no connection/ cannot read the NAND. In most cases it's because of NAND degradation. If the data is important - chip off is the way. If you want to fix it - check all the soldered components. But there are low chances to fix it.

Thanks melvin
Yes mcu is not communicating with nand. If this model is having TSOP nand /mcu then it can be transplanted to donor pcb. But for monolithic it may not be possible.

If it is TSOP and it's degraded, transplant will not work. If it's monolith - chip off is the only way.
