iPhone Data RecoveryJohannesburg, Pretoria & Gauteng

Depends on the fault. If the device won't power due to battery or board fault — and the NAND is intact — data recovery is often possible. If the NAND itself is corrupted, recovery becomes harder. Free assessment determines what's possible.

The NAND stores iOS and personal data. After NAND replacement using the P15 programmer, the device restores from iCloud or iTunes backup. Local data not in a backup won't be on the device after NAND replacement.

If the original NAND chip is still readable, we attempt to boot far enough to perform a local backup before replacing. If too corrupted to boot, access to stored data is significantly limited. We assess honestly — cannot always be achieved.

Water damage recovery depends on corrosion extent. Fresh water, brief exposure, brought in quickly — good chance. Salt water, long exposure, charged after — much lower. We clean and assess before advising.

The P15 reads the device's unique identifiers (serial number, Wi-Fi address, baseband data) and writes them to the replacement NAND chip. Without these identifiers, the device cannot activate on Apple's servers after repair.

No. If activation-locked and you don't have the Apple ID credentials — data access is not possible.

If the logic board is intact — likely yes. Drop damage typically affects the screen and chassis without damaging the board. We assess board condition, attempt to boot, and discuss options.

Same-day initial assessment. If board work is required before data can be accessed, allow 1–3 days.
