How can I know if my local phone shop has replaced my EMMC or not via root or other methods?

 

Many people look to their neighborhood phone shops for their knowledge when it comes to fixing smartphones. These repair facilities might offer a practical solution for broken screens or faulty parts. But occasionally issues with dishonest behaviour can up, particularly when it comes to important internal parts like the EMMC (Embedded MultiMediaCard). This blog post will walk you through several techniques to check the integrity of your device if you’re not sure whether the EMMC in your phone has been updated or not by your neighborhood phone shop. Hence ICFix Service provides eMMC training courses in Chennai.

 

Method 1: Check System Information:

 

Looking at your smartphone’s system information is the quickest approach to determine whether your EMMC has been replaced. Take these actions:

 

Android gadgets:

 

● Enter the “Settings” menu on your smartphone.

 

● Find and tap on the “About phone” or “About device” option.

 

● Look for the “Storage” or “Memory” section, which should have information on the storage on your device.

 

● Make a note of the storage capacity, model, and maker.

 

iOS gadgets:

 

● Launch the “Settings” application on your iPad or iPhone.

 

● Click “General.”

 

● Choose “About.”

 

● Look for details about storage capacity.

 

You can find out if there have been any modifications by comparing the information you acquired with the original specifications of your gadget.

 

Method 2: Utilise Root Access 

 

There are a few other ways for Android users with rooted devices to learn more about the condition of their EMMC. Please be aware, though, that rooting your device may result in other risks and violate your warranty. Exercise prudence and good judgment as you move forward.

 

 

 

 

Apps for Root Explorer:

 

● Install one of the root explorer apps, such as Root Browser, ES File Explorer, or Solid Explorer.

 

● Give the application root access.

 

● Go to “/sys/block/mmcblk0/device” to find it.

 

● Open a text editor and navigate to the “cid” file.

 

● The CID (Card Identifier) is a code made up of 32 characters. To look for errors, compare it to the original CID.

 

Emulator for Terminals:

 

● Set up a terminal emulator program, such as Termux.

 

● Open the application, and if requested, allow root access.

 

● Press Enter after entering the command “cat /sys/block/mmcblk0/device/cid”.

 

● The obtained CID should be compared to the original.

 

Method 3: Request Expert Assistance:

 

Consider enlisting the help of a reliable third-party repair facility if you are unclear on how to carry out the aforementioned procedures or lack the necessary technical skills. These professionals can examine your device and give a precise evaluation of the condition of your EMMC.
