    I'm no pro myself, but I've read a few things written by pros... some bits of this are speculation so take with a grain of salt...

    SX devices are flash-based, so visual inspection won't work. What you would need to do in a situation like this is depackage the chip and figure out a way to erase only the so-called "fuse" settings (of course on a reprogrammable device, these are only flash/EPROM cells and not actual fuses), where the protection setting is enabled.

    Bunnie has an article somewhere on his blog where he talks about doing this to a PIC. The short version is that the PIC had metal shielding over just the "fuse" area but not the program area. The hole in this protection is that there's a silicon dioxide layer between them. Silicon dioxide is basically glass and at the appropriate angle light will primarily reflect inside the layer rather than just passing through it. So bunnie cut a tiny piece of electrical tape to protect the program area and stuck the thing in an ordinary EPROM eraser at the appropriate angle.

    Your mileage may vary, of course; SX is not PIC, and bunnie is basically a genius so he might not have posted some little things that are obvious to him but that you would need to know to attempt doing this. I may also have remembered it wrong but the basic ideas should be correct.
