He shorted the test points on the PCB—just above the SIM slot, two tiny gold pads labeled TP_TX and TP_RX . A paperclip would do. He clamped it, then connected the USB cable.

CM2 required a .pac file—a complete, signed Spreadtrum firmware package. Generic firmware from the internet would hard-brick the TA-1174 because of the NAND partition layout (dynamic userdata vs. cache). Rahul had learned that lesson last month.
