Tips/Tricks

FEL mode

The vol- button triggers FEL mode.

Adding a serial port

MID S906 UART pads

Device disassembly

Remove the two screws on the side with the connectors.

Careful insert your plastic tool in the space between the USB port and the back cover. Then, gently lead the tool to the edge toward the camera. You should soon hear the clips popping. Keep a plastic tool from edge to edge, while the back cover comes off.

Locating the UART

As shown, there are some small pads next to the SD slot. All you have to do is solder on some wires.
