FirstChip releases MPTools yearly, but the is the definitive version for the FC1178BC. Why? Later 2023/2024 versions introduced DRM-like checks that require a hardware key (a special USB dongle) for "mass production." The 2022 version does not.
It is frequently paired with various types of flash memory, including:
Incompatible Flash: If the tool returns an "Unknown Flash" error, you may need a newer version of the tool or a specific "iFlash" version of the FirstChip software.
If you see Fail: Bad Block Over Limit (0x35) , your NAND is physically dead. The 2022 tool is ruthless – it will not revive totally dead chips.
