@balu@muenster.im @phranck@chaos.social if a user replaced the firmware on the board with a clean bin, it would be very difficult for Bambu to do anything further. On a hardware level, it would be like wiping your hard drive, installing Linux and Microsoft expecting a Windows update to matter.
The current project for the P1 involves replacing hardware, as you observed, but that doesn't mean it always will.
