Possible Ways to Crack the Bootloader

[WugFresh]

I wouldn't be suprised if moto upped some security with the GB update that's coming to the X soon.

Possible.. but from their perspective "if it ain't broken.. why fix it..?"

... unless they are really scared of FreeMyMoto.. don't worry though.. they will be soon enough:

Other features of the app I am thinking of:
-Ability to refer people to FreeMyMoto app, via email, facebook, ect.. send direct link or qrcodes, copy embedded html code to show support on websites, bbcode to show support on forums, basically.. anything for quick information exchange..
-Documentation on the overall project.. mission statement, what has been done, members.. brief bios
-Idea bank -place for people to submit ideas or links to helpful resources
-Betas: a section for all stuff relating to aliasxerog kexec work and driver research, any other attempts which have been made, hash collider idea
-Moto Spam bot: user can set the frequency, but every cycle it will send moto a detailed email (have a few made to switch it up) and tweet them "FreeMyMoto!").. spam them like crazy until we get a C&D or get the app pulled from the market. Cause an uproar.
-Contact info
-Donate to FreeMyMoto

Edit: spambot idea pending review of legal ramifications... maybe a less extreme version is in order..

The app is the wat to go. Its like we are petitioning them to release the keys and they can't pull it from the market if we are petitioning its our right.

Considering sending spam is a crime, I'd recommend against it

Agreed. Don't get me wrong, I am still going to build the @home hash collider, I still think that would be epic if we had thosands of people running that... but politics may prove to be more powerful than hackery in this case.

Yeah.. I'm gonna look up the laws on that.. leaning towards limiting it to one email per person... thats not spam, thats a unanimous petition letter... especially if I make it so that each one fills in the end users name. Sucks that its a crime though, I would find a lot of joy in making a moto spambot.

The app also shouldn't cost money and can't be ad supported. The sources should be on our site too, just in case someone wants to make a third-party app.

100% agreed, if I could make a way so that donation money went towards making the app negative 1 dollars, so that you got paid to download it, I would.

Yes. Free. Open Source. No Ads. Mass Distributed, both in market and out.

This would actually be a great idea, there are a lot of people in these communities who have no idea, and this would help. and would also help the people not in the communities to get involved. great idea Wug! Or whoever it was!

 

[WugFresh]

Thank you. If any devs would be willing to help me I would greatly appreciate it and know that you would be doing a great service for the community. Regardless I am going to mock up the GUI and plan the whole thing out. My experience with the SDK is minimal though, so I would appreciate any help if you are capable, otherwise I am going to plug ahead and try my best to build it quickly.

No spam, but a one time email would be good. Every droid in my house will have it installed. And I will install it on every one of my friends droids

But we need to like cut a deal with moto. Like if they won't acknowledge our petition then it will be a wasted effort. We need to say like if we get 5 million downloads will you give us the keys or help us out or something. But they don't have to acknowledge it. We have the right to petition doesn't mean they have to give it to us. So we need to cut a deal with Moto.

Thats not how petitions work. They are something you waive in their face and say.. see! Wake up! Then it's something they will ignore, then you get it in the press so it can't be ignored... thats the way these things go... you think moto is going to sign a deal? Sorry... not happening... would be great.. but thats just not going down.

[Brennan_Huber]

that's a good way to put it. But I wasn't meaning just out of the blue signing a deal. I meant like after it gets blown up to this big deal and everyone is involved. Including media. And maybe when Moto gets enough bad publicity they will try and make the people happy by giving them what they want. That way we (android users) will be able to use the hardware we bought to the potential it has.
And I'm only wishful thinking.
