### Ingenic Cloner Utility
Description
#### Shorting pins on flash chip
The first thing to do is locate the flash memory chip on the camera circuit
board. Typically this is a square chip with 8 pins labeled 25Q64 or 25Q128,
rarely 25L64 or 25L128. If you have trouble locating the chip, try taking
some pictures of your board from both sides. Then ask for help
[in our Telegram channel](https://t.me/openipc).
__Do not try to short-circuit any random chip! It will most likely burn your camera circuit.__
Short-circuit pins 5 and 6 of the flash chip with a small metal object,
a screwdriver or tweezers, right after the bootloader starts but before it
calls up the Linux kernel.
Pins 5 and 6 of the SOIC8 chip are on the opposite corner of pin 1, indicated
by the embossed or drawn dot next to it.
