Is that what the q662.elf file is for? Making one the other? I guess not if it's hard to determine which is which?

Well, at the time I also tried /zo, /ze and just /z. I hadn't read up yet to understand that 9008 and 900e were different.

Well, I hope I don't have to open it... I don't have a hot air gun handy and this looks as sealed a device as I've ever had. I'm curious what is available inside, though. EDL test points? I was looking at how those cables are supposed to work, if they work.
Now that it's night time, I noticed the front-light never turns on and it's just 4 screen refreshes every loop that draws power. I wonder how long that's going to take...
