Changing serial no. on MacBook Pro 13" 2012 (A1278) logic board - who can help?

[Chrizzz]

Hello everybody. Can anyone help with properly changing the existing serial number on a logic board for MacBook Pro 13" 2012 (A1278) - part. no. 661-6588, 820-3115-A) to another defined vaule? I would need this as a chance to recover important iMessages from the past, and would be willing to pay 200 EUR/USD for prompt and good service... preferably in EU or Germany. Thanks.

If you have the tools to read the SPI ROM just upload your backup and I could help you...

Best in this case is to read the original BIOS from the broken board. I believe the $SVS block also needs to be copied over besides the serial number.

In any case you need to read the BIOS chips with programmer. Or send it over to me in NL if you are not able to do it yourself.
