Re: C458 + probably dead MFBP

Thank y'all for the input and suggestions, guess we're kind of the same page here that it's worth a try. I'll keep you on the loop.

I also only have the reset tool for the xx4 machines but i used it on xx8 machines too before. Its a bit of gamble if the machine accepts it.

Will you pl recall/share any more info of outcome of using XXX4 reset toll on XXX8.

On some Machines it works, on some it does not. Has nothing to do with firmware i think because i keep them updated. Could be possible installed i-options or different product-revisions that hinder the reset tool from working. Have not done enough testing on it because it happened like 10 times so far

I don't think this is the same tool, one is called A145FW (4series) and the other a789be (8series/i series)

Isn't A145FW suitable for all Color machines? tleast thats what it says on my documentation but i wrote that myself from experience

Might be the same file under the hood, I'm not shure about that.

However things went kind of smooth with only little struggle on site:

Tech swapped the NVRams and EMMC from the faulty to the "renewed" board and started with FW. Everything behaved like it should but it seemed there was some confusion with the machine type at first.
It was shown correctly but the machine behaved weird (some odd external memory message popped up), he gave it another try and re-wrote the machine type, even though it was displayed correctly and then everything went smooth.

Thanks again and good luck in case you wanna try^^
