Thank you for using and considering MASAMUNE Erasure.
Update Notice
MASAMUNE Erasure was updated on May 31.
With this update, if an error occurs while retrieving an IMEI, the software will automatically retry.
The version after the update is “build=20192 / Library: 0.3.3-187 + 0.9.2-608r”.
Background
We received feedback that IMEI information was missing for some devices such as iPhones and cellular iPads.
After investigation, we found that when an erasure is started from DFU mode or Recovery mode, IMEI retrieval may fail.
To address this, the software will retry IMEI retrieval up to three times when it fails.
Reminder: Beware of “sealed box” scams
Reuse Keizai Shimbun reported a warning about iPhone buyback inspections:

(Quote) A buyback shop purchased two unopened units of the latest iPhone 15 Pro (256GB and 512GB). When the shop resold them to another buyer, it turned out that the boxes contained two sets of AA batteries (4-pack × 2).
Most buyers do not open sealed products during purchase, but this incident exploited that practice. It is important to check for any irregularities in the shrink wrap and assess the customer carefully.
A quick joke: even if something is “10-car” heavy, it can still be hell inside.
