Is it possible to disassemble this without damaging the outer case?
>>55374839
Probably not. But how did they get it in?
>>55374839
for what purpose?
>>55374889
I'm not sure if the case is glued together or if I should buy a different one.
>>55374976
To extract the on-board firmware and put it back together.
>>55375103
for what purpose?
Not op.
If you were to get a chink internal USB to USB A adapter and put it inside your case how would the reception be?
>>55375156
Not him, but why the fuck not?
>>55375344
because you'll destroy the device
>>55375344
Why?
>>55375458
How would it get destroyed?

do it and find out
It looks like a unibody case. You won't be able to open it.

Interesting. Does that mean the case needs to be cut to access the PCB inside?
I suppose I could just cut with a Dremel and superglue it back together.
>>55375725
not sure with that particular device, but sometimes yes, accessing some devices means breaking the case
>>55375767
So is it then a general rule of thumb that if I can't clearly see a separation between the front and back of the case then I'll need to break it? Are there any other characteristics I need to look for before buying the device?

can i ask why you need to disassemble one? if it's to add an antenna, you can buy ones with antenna ports already accessible

Just thought I could extract the firmware using JTAG and inspect it using IDA Pro to see if there's anything interesting.

He's already stated why he wants the lids off you dense cunt, fuck off.
its not good to open pen drive because static electric can damage it
>>55375767
What do you think about this one? It looks like it's just held together with clips, right?
>>55375892
I'm trying to get into JTAGing phone firmwares. Can you give a pointer to what tool I should buy for that?
There seems to be a lot of gaymer bullshit
>>55376225
The JTAGulator by Joe Grand is a great tool to identify JTAG ports. As for the actual JTAG device, there are many available for cheap on Ali Express.
>>55375962
possibly, a seam doesn't always mean it uses clips, but if it's got a gap then it probably does
