with a patched bootloader on 605 this could be used to repack an then update a modified .aos right?

(i think maybe this is not necesary with the mc hack as i think it was said you could directly modify the cpio.whateva but maybe this could make it easier to distribute if we get some cool mods goin?)

is there a different firmware version for the 160g version?? its less clear to me why the 160 hack doesn't work than the 4gbFlash because I know the 4 has a different firmware version on the 4gb front: from the archutil(thanks che,grond and analias!) we are able to unpack an aos firmware, from that ...

aw yeah! THANKS GROND!!! see, told them you were a nice guy

i do get an archutil but i cant seem to invoke it? maybe i misunderstand the readme archutil: command not found but the file is clearly there in nautilus... i tried as root etc It looks like from the source this should work with the 605, seems like alot of the new work is on a5/7 so i was hoping to ...

i get error: rm -f *.o archutil gcc -g -o md5.o -c md5.c gcc -g -o utility.o -c utility.c gcc -g -o arch_crypto.o -c arch_crypto.c gcc -g -o archutil.o -c archutil.c gcc -g -o aos_file.o -c aos_file.c aos_file.c: In function ÔÇÿparse_aosÔÇÖ: aos_file.c:253: warning: cast from pointer to integer of d...

presumable the a5/a7/whatever dock does not actually run on AC (at least it doesn't for 605) but rather on an AC to DC converter (i think 605 dock runs 9v) which could easily be replaced with a battery see: http://benheck.com/ as he has demonstrated this principal many times in his portable gaming m...

it could be a while b4 post 1.7.13 are able to patch bootloader, however, there has been much more activity and interest in this matter lately than for a long time, and to me it seems an eventuality that exploit code will be released. as others have stated, archos has abandoned this device, making m...

ed's right: check out the g3nious docs figure out if you need to do GF with our without the dock--i think thats the main difference (as stated above im pretty sure you will need to DL a linux cd, ubuntu is nice as there is a big community--any problem like sounds etc ive been able to google answers)

http://www.linuxtogo.org/gowiki/Angstro ... system-arm - about building angstrom on qemu

as an aside, 1/3.1/95/98/2000/xp/vista/7/m$ is great for gaming... but for hacking linux is pretty much a must

I assume(maybe wrongly?) that almost any architecture can be emulated in a virtual machine given the necessary files to do so... maybe these will be of help (while not being exactly about the archos): http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ARM_architecture - about the chip http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Qemu - ...

1. confirmed. not sure the meaning either? i assume they are debugging symbols of some kind 2? ... so? does this hurt it? 3? no minidock sry btw a .2 release is hardly final, stable though--in my personal experience the archos has crashed less than when i ran only avos(however i use the device alot ...

man anything in ubuntu

ie
man ls
man cd
man apt-get

then when you get a feel for those
sudo apt-get install gcc

man gcc

and finally google a hello world in c and compile and run

afaik until the flash-lock problem has been addressed no MC for 2.1.xx this GFT2 is quite interesting as it addresses something i once heard about 'hacking' this thing i once heard was to focus not on standard libraries which have been well tested and implemented many times, but to look at features ...

on MC'd 2.1.04 this same test reports back as no exploits found

ohp. sry. didn't know anyone tried on 605 i just saw that thread where archilles was talking about it for the a5/7 and the docs on archos genious for a5/7

im assuming you have a 1.8.x or a 2.x 605 wifi non-flash first start your archos 605 by pushing and holding the power and lock buttons at the same time then plug your 605 into a linux machine and follow instructions for brick maker or other flash dump utility to attempt to mount r+w (i think is what...

so now that the button press/ hidden partition mount/downgrade in emergency boot mode has been confirmed on a5 a7 has anybody tried on 605? mines still 1.7.13 otherwise id try

hm. i think you got a better chance of begging 4chan to hack their server and steal key (not that i advocate such a position)

better use of effort than trying brute force anyway

@iskuo unless there is a drastic change in hacking approach you probably wont be using ntfs anytime soon, the 605 is a linux system which sometimes don't play nice with ntfs(non linux native filesystem) sounds like ext3 or fat support are in the kernel(i believe chebuzz said in another thread) which...
