if source were available for cydia/other free iphone apps could they be cross-compiled? i think the iphone is arm based maybe?

alot of them already have interesting touch screen control work-arounds, see: iphone doom

I must second the appreciat...

!!!!!!!!! nice!!!!!!!!!!!!!

once i get over the shock im gunna try this!(i assume it works basicly the same way with MC as with gft3 cept i gotta SSH the commands or use the wifi server dialog or some such?)

this and the text edit were all i really wanted from archos!

i see you take my comments with a good attitude, as some would dismiss them. i appreciate that, feel free to pop back in here if you have any questions along the way! the 605 is a big part of why i started using linux on an everyday basis (id played with mandrake long ago but hadnt had my own comput...

^ you can access any windows files from linux, however it may be impractical if you are only going to use it a few times assuming you have an ntfs windows drive/partition, basically you would: (not exact commands) 1. need a thumbdrive or something where you have read/write access 2. create a folder ...

if so, what could I do to help one to write a hack ? the first thing that is needed for your hack(afaik) is root. in a linux/unix system root is god. key to the kingdom(with the exception of a few things..). root access allows read/write operations on systems that are marked for read-only to the en...

i posted a little bit about this before, but if we want a tvguide service to actually interact with the archos recorder some reverse engineering is going to need to be done. if anyone still has information in their tvguide it would be easier(possible) to figure out the file format and interact with ...

i lol'd.

i wanna give ben heck one to play with! god only knows what he'd come up with... ps360box05-laptop plz?

the md5 was just an example sry for any confusion also, if u are filling in the 705 table with hex valus from the offset i provided then u are missing the point... those hex offsets/values(derived from a MC'd hard drivec2.1.04) did NOT work with the 705 or u would not be here... what needs to be don...

infact all that really needs to be done is: unpack the aos with chebuzz archutil then to mount with instructions and offset as instructed in this GFT3 thread the avos is located at /usr/bin or some such i just haven't been working with the right aos files perhaps you could form the correct url to do...

first: md5sum for your avos plz example [email protected]:~$ ls avos [email protected]:~$ md5sum avos 50d496b158f3033cc097e44f89fece0a avos havnt produced much yet.. but if u wanna hop on the bandwagon post a 2.1.04 avos and ill try to take a look (may not be quick, im a student, but ill look) heres the offsets ide...

have been looking at the AVOS: hd vs hd hacked hd vs 4g flash hd hacked vs 4g flash etc as far as i remember the MC'd avos is 2.1.04? right? i think im looking at 2.0.10 or something cus there are tooooooo many differences in the binary (between hacked and non) for clarity, was the 4g AVOS that was ...

if somebody wants to post the 4g avos i will look for the MCchecks(sideways and divx did half the work by identifying what MC patches in the hd version) (just been busy/lazy and dont have a 4g)

agreed. sent a message to archos support once... never heard a peep. might as well have been talkin to god

if someone knows for sure feel free to pop in here, but afaik, the checks have been removed to replace hd you will need similar zif harddrive and most likely an interface to connect zif to usb or some internal hd connector (not sure if you have to copy system files externally, you might be able to u...

see the archos docs, there is a walkthrough:

sry not a gen6 owner, but, is it not possible to specify which version of libc to use as a bitbake command arguement?

i think kb or someone round here was able to fix the package manager, however, i haven't seen guide or files for download afaik

anyone thats fixed the package manager wanna toss their $.2 in?

@infotba

see: http://forum.archosfans.com/viewtopic.php?f=34&t=27618

the responsible boot code has been identified, however there is need to create a few files with modified checks and risk bricking an archos 4g for more progress to be made afaik

@pandybox i have access to pcb rework equip(in us) if anyone wants to send me broken board to trace, no need for ovens : ) i wonder has anyone tried hooking up a archos without battery attached? on some devices the battery must be removed to program the flash presumably there are already serial comm...
