As the title...
If you transfer your Hekate backups etc over FTP depending how your FTP connection is configured, there is a possibility that you COULD lose bytes, resulting in a bad restore if you needed to.
Investigations are still ongoing, and I am sure most people are fine.
But for safetys sake, once you have your Hekate eMMC backups, transfer them back and forth by a direct connection (ie card reader) over PC.
Do NOT rely on FTP. Especially where prodinfo is concerned.
We seem to be seeing a lot of bricks lately.
Forgive me if this has been covered in "gaming" sections or whatever.
I don`t game and I don`t have a clue about developments on the high-level side.
But working with rawnands, EMMCs and PRODINFOs for the best part of a year has taught me - please be careful!
Quick check:
Open your boot0 in a hex editor.
Go to offset 0x180000.
If 0x17FFF0 is 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 then you are fine.
