TriggerCopying NA2 xbl.elf/abl.elf onto NA1

Never flash XBL or ABL from NA2 onto NA1. These partitions are storage-type-aware. A UFS bootloader on eMMC hardware = permanent brick.

Never touch the xbl partition. ABL failure is recoverable via EDL (XBL drops to 9008). XBL failure is a hard brick with no recovery path. Only flash the abl partition with custom builds from this project’s source.
