You'll probably need a special CFW that has BT disabled. Check out this post, euss created an MFW task specifically for that:

Sounds like the hardware part is running fine. Since norpatch recognized ROS0/1 of your dump, it should be okay. There's always a slight chance for the dump to still being corrupted, but it's very unlikely, because the ROS areas are the largest part of the NOR and if those are correct, at least all of your data and address lines are working 100%. And there's no way to check to entire content..

Did you do the power/eject sequence to enter fsm? Check this out:

And give it a couple of tries, it doesn't always work the first time. Don't know why, but my E3 fsm jig also doesn't enter fsm all the time. Doesn't seem to be a Teensy problem.
