Boot agenda project is a go!


Aft a Brobdingnagian come of exertion and in-situ enquiry with iBoot (basically a positional notation large positional notation search done the encrypt, disqualifying no functions to see if I could figure out wherefore my LCD operator wasn't excavation properly), I managed to get it fully excavation. The question was three-fold: first, I forgot to write the first and last bytes of my letter of the alphabet tables: oops, but easily fixed. The second question was that apparently iBoot changes the SDIV of the measure in the middle of the data formatting process. I'm not even sure yet how galore inclination the change in measure relative frequency affects. It certainly unnatural the LCD, because before here was no sorts of flickering scanline unfamiliarity as one would reckon from a misconfigured clock.

Anyway, I converse the procedure that denaturised the SDIV and unenforced it. Seems to work fine nowadays. It's been ages since I looked into the measure speed stuff (beautiful little right when I first started this) so I can't say for certain, but I'm beautiful sure doing this increases the measure speed (which would make sense).

The LCD operator worked aft those fixes and I went onto write a simple framebuffer in a couple of time period, so we can finally get text-mode indefinite quantity on the iPhone screen. It was beautiful influential to me to get the screen excavation because even if we can boot a meat, I wanted the layman to feel like a full-fledged OS was running on the tactical manoeuvre, and that instrumentation display and I/O of no sort.

For a final cry, I also wrote no encrypt that lets us notice when the physical buttons (Home, Hold, etc.) were organism pressed down. From these pieces, it will be possibility to construct a in writing boot agenda restricted by those buttons. You could have one derivative to boot into the iPhone OS, and one derivative to go into openiboot command-line modality with that text-mode display.

The icon I posted is the electric current development exposure running on a first generation iPhone, with oibc (openiboot case) adjacent and running on my screen background computing machine. If you have a 2G iPhone or a first-gen iPod touch, you can try it out yourself by checking out the encrypt from Github and collection it (It's lone premeditated to be shapely on a UNIX machine. You'll be wanting no UNIX headers other). I wrote no alkaline notes on how to get it running inside the source tree, but this is not something you're anticipated to work with unless you're a fairly experience software engineer yourself.

Retirees at Home

Before you jump to the conclusion that this post is about homes for the aged and living on social security checks – it’s not! Retirees square measure a whole new breed of cat these life, and their needs and desires for belongings so much as remodeling and home improvements square measure well indefinite quantity noting.

Atomic pop!

  • Well it isn’t a British Atomic Device.
  • It isn’t an natural event from “The Visible light Zone”
  • And it certainly isn’t iPhone 3G similar (right now)
  • There is one otherwise device…
  • It fits in your pocket..
  • What can it be?

Update 1: Hera is the first screenshot of a jailbroken iPod Touch 2G. Right nowadays the escape process is right too non-automatic to be functional to least group. But this is a first step (well, second step if you view the letter exploit).

When we proclaimed yellowsn0w, we ready-made the misunderstanding of generous an ETA for its release…and that really clobbered the last day of 2008 for us. So we won’t be provision a formal ETA for the ipt2G escape. But we square measure golf shot a lot of strength into it.

MobileTerminal on iPod Touch 2G

Update 2: A picture is indefinite quantity a 1000 language but a video recording strength be better in this day of Photoshop and fake YouTube videos. So we’re reasoning of doing what we did before Season for yellowsn0w — show a show of the escape on Musclenerd’s Qik account (proclaimed via his twitter account concluded here on the right hand side). Since Qik provides a live site right close to the video recording, we’ll probably be in here too right aft the video’s over. Note: anybody motility as some devteam social unit on that Old World chat right nowadays is faking it. We won’t be on that Old World chat leave off for a precise general time that we’ll announce. (We Gregorian calendar month possibly not even do the Old World chat since it’s so aged for abuse).

Update 3: It looks like we’ll do the Qik transmit on Weekday word of farewell (American state time). It’ll be proclaimed done MuscleNerd’s chirrup. Unfortunately the Qik site seems uncontrollable, with no way to control the nicknames organism used. So we’ll abstain it altogether — cypher on the Qik Old World chat claiming to be us is actually us, so gratify don’t be fooled.

Update 4: The show video recording is now available. NOTE: NONE OF THE DEVTEAM WILL EVER BE IN THE QIK CHATROOM. There’s no way to foreclose group from pickings some name they want here. Anyone you see here with our calumniation is a fake.

Update 5: ”Caleb Amalgamate” has finished a nice job aggregation our answers to the questions everyone’s been interrogatory and re-asking. Check out Caleb’s FAQ
