Great help for everyone who wants to repair their Mac!

I'm looking forward to new models for testing.

Will Reconnaissance work with Macs with 3rd party ROMs? Or should I go back to stock ROM before using the tool?

Click to expand...

Reconnaissance depends on the diagnostics mode in the ROM. The Mac has to work well enough to run that code. If the 3rd party ROM doesn't bypass the diagnostics, then it should work. But don't some of these ROMs skip the diagnostics (RAM tests, etc.) to boot faster?
