C558 reset tool?

What does your last article mean?
(Again, wide-spread counter cheating, killed good service software..)

he's talking about crooks who use service tools to defraud customers, by clearing the counters on the units concerned.

why run a reset tool when you can just "Initialize All" and wipe out everything.

what benefit does this reset firmware offer?

It works like NVRAM Recovery in earlier machines - wipes all the information stored in on-board NVRAM (battery-backup SRAM memory for counters, settings and so on), after resetting, machine recover all that data from backups stored in other places. In the first stage machine recreates structure of the data stored in NVRAM, then re-writes data to recreated structure. The data or structure stored in NVRAM can be damaged by power surged, cosmic rays and so on, leading to strange behavior.

In comparison to above, "Initialize All" just resets only some data (user and admin settings, some service settings) to factory defaults.

[QUOTE = jotunn; 800844] 이전 컴퓨터의 NVRAM 복구처럼 작동합니다. 내장 NVRAM (카운터, 설정 등을위한 배터리 백업 SRAM 메모리)에 저장된 모든 정보를 지 웁니다. 재설정 후 컴퓨터는 모든 데이터를 복구합니다. 다른 장소에 저장된 백업. 첫 번째 단계에서 머신은 NVRAM에 저장된 데이터의 구조를 다시 만든 다음 다시 작성된 구조로 데이터를 다시 씁니다. NVRAM에 저장된 데이터 또는 구조는 전원 서지, 우주선 등으로 인해 손상되어 이상한 동작을 일으킬 수 있습니다.

위와 비교하여 "모두 초기화"는 일부 데이터 (사용자 및 관리자 설정, 일부 서비스 설정) 만 공장 기본값으로 재설정합니다. [/ QUOTE]


I saw a C308 emmc COPY Tool for sale here.
If you copy emmc it will not recover.

I heard there is an emmc copy tool.
Read and save the new machine data with the above tool
It is understood that the machine can be used as a new machine data value by writ if necessary.
I've seen it somewhere here.

I have never used reset firmware. I do it manually. Is it just more efficient? What's it called on cses or knova

They use it to reset the main counters, initialise all doesn't do this.

Not to defraud anyone but when they buy used machine to put out on lease etc they find it easier to have the counters start at zero.

This is not an issue in 3rd world countries etc.

In the USA I would image it's a very different story.
