The problem is that we don't have code execution so we can't just "replace a little bit of code where the iPod boots up". Finding out how the cryptoengine works is a completely different thing.
If you have an idea though how to get code running without using the notes exploit/using it in a better/easier way I think everyone would be happy to hear about. If not the two things that help most on the 3g would be: a) bruteforcing again... building a new nanotron b) open up the device and take it apart Farthen On Sun, Jan 17, 2010 at 2:41 AM, Keanen Shaw <keanen.s...@gmail.com> wrote: > Well, you do have the right idea, but you're going about it wrong.
