I have 2 read modes and I wanted to try and clear up my goals for each:
dump - dump all readable data from your drive to a file. Usually not restorable as is but may be, depends on the drive/make/model. Includes everything your drive had on it at that time and 2 dumps may not match due to live RAM changes. Good for debugging and reverse engineering.
backup - creates an OEM backup of your drive. If you flash an OEM firmware, and do a backup, the 2 files should be identical. This is so you all can backup your files before you do any flashing and share them with others so we can build out the OEM database with some firmwares only now living on old drives.
I am working on fixing some bugs with the Mediatek backups. FYI I didn't make it clear in the opening post (but website does) that this flasher will flash, backup, dump MediaTek and Pioneer drives. 1 tool for both.
