Hello everyone! I have an iPhone XS Max which is stuck in recovery mode and when you try and restore it, error 9 in iTunes comes up. I have verified it is not software and not any of the components inside of the phone.
I recently removed the NAND, and took some diode readings of the pads underneath it. Everything was fine, except for one line. PCIE_NAND_RESREF was open line. I looked on my board view and noticed it only connects to one resistor. I took diode readings of the resistor and noticed one side was ground (normal) and the other side was OL (not normal). I thought to myself that it might just be a bad resistor, so I replaced it. Still, no change.
I was wondering if anyone might know how to fix this problem, will this line show as OL if the NAND is removed or is something wrong? Thank you!!
