Resurrecting Huawei EC1260 is simple. Just make sure you solder all JTAG signals and insert modem into a USB port for it to get powered.
If modem is not detected by RIFFBOX JTAG, disconnect JTAG connector, re-insert modem into USB and then connect back the JTAG connector.
At resurrection startup you can select which zones are to be re-flashed. Thus you can save a lot of time if you know approximately which zone is damaged. Select EFS or MMC areas to be flashed only in case you are sure those are damaged – these areas quite big in size; unnecessary reflash is just a waste of time.
Please note, if you chose EFS to be repaired, an original ESN will be lost and substituted with the one contained in resurrection data. Current resurrector does not support ESN repair.
