3 no
4 when you read your modem with the jtag you will get the full dump

buy yourself the jtag nt and you will be able to read your modem and clone it to the other one or open the full dump with binwalk and extract the certs

thank you for the answers
your answer to first question is different than other's answer. 
I see people saying blackcat JTAG, and i found this on ebay, does this one work as well? it is cheaper than USBJTAG. 
Is JTAG hardware component detachable? do i need to solder and desolder every time on different modem? thank you so much

Oh sorry for 1) I meant No.

I think USBJTAGNT is better or lets you connect to more chips.

You need to solder.

hi,
another question. can USBJTAG use with modems running stock firmware to retrieve certs and dump? or it can only be used with modems running custom firmware? thanks

first you need to understand what is a jtag and what is used for, do some google.
jtag is not just for modems
