BS112 — Software Repair — Flashing and Unlocking (Android) Training Course

About the Course

Android software faults are among the most common and most profitable repair requests a technician will encounter — from FRP (Factory Reset Protection) locks and firmware corruption to failed updates and boot loops. The Software Repair Training — Flashing & Unlocking Android (BS112) is a focused one-day course dedicated entirely to Android device software repair, giving you deep, brand-agnostic proficiency across Samsung, Huawei, Xiaomi, Oppo, Tecno, Infinix, and other major Android manufacturers. Using professional flashing tools, boxes, and dongles, you will learn to confidently diagnose and resolve the full range of Android software issues — a fast, highly repeatable, high-margin service with minimal part costs. This course is ideal for technicians who only need Android proficiency, or who already have iOS software skills and want to complete their multi-platform capability at a lower cost than the combined course.
