I was not sure if I wanted to upload this video. I got so frustrated that by the end of the day my back was aching. In the end however, I realized that there was still a lot of information to be shown here. Particularly, many may be interested in viewing the splitting of the iPhone 12 Pro Max board, as that has not been shown in many places, if at all. Data Recovery is successful despite the difficulty and time it took. I hope that not all 12 jobs will be this difficult.
