"Dump File" & "Hot":
- A Dump File is a raw extraction of these partitions (usually created using tools like UMT MTK or by reading the phone's flash storage).
- "Hot" usually refers to the fact that this file is in high demand, difficult to find, or critical for fixing "dead" or "null IMEI" issues. Alternatively, in some contexts, "hot" can imply a device that is in a "hot" state (connected while powered on) to perform the read/write operations (MTK Bypass).
