Hard disk effected by icloud?

Hello..

I have an iphone 6 plus that (I guess) has a Hard-disk issues, (40-13) error,

I have another device that is locked by an icloud, I assumed that I can replace the hard-disks, is this possible?

Is icloud information stored in the harddisk?

Answered! View the answer I have this problem too

Is this a good question?

Usually, an error 4013 on a 6 series device is data corruption in the NAND. This can be repaired but it will require advanced soldering skills and it will also require a special NAND programmer as the metadata of your NAND needs to be repaired.

If the other device has a larger capacity NAND, it could be transferred over but it will require the same kind of actions as above. If you are interested in doing this, you will have to find a repair shop that does micro-soldering repairs.

@refectio - Even if he was able to get the NAND replaced or reprogramed. The ID has been corrupted and the iCloud account is messed up as he can't gain access from a second system. This really needs Apple to fix.

@danj unless the NAND is completely fried (which is rare), the NAND programmer can read the metadata off the NAND and it will be used to reprogram the replacement NAND. The data is scrambled but not the metadata.

The actual metadata consists of the device serial number, model number, country code, mac address and BT address. All of this info can also be found through other measures under certain circumstances.

You iPhone has flash storage which is not serviceable.

I think you'll need to visit an Apple Store as your iPhone error implies your iCloud ID is corrupted.
