Firmware editors are brilliant arn't they

 

[jondy]

Heh, nice.

 

[Z3R0112]

That's sweet... How did u do that?

 

[v1p3r]

I used iPodWizard (http://will-burn.net/), it lets you change any image, font or string (but i'd leave strings alone if I were you) on the iPod

You just feed it the iPods updater app, patch your stuff in then update/restore your 'Pod

Heres that HL2 logo:

Nice! If I'd be willing to put up with the crappy battery life and high price, that's definitely what I'd have on my iPod.

Do you need to reformat the ipod in the process of updating the firmware?

that's great! I'm so going to do that next time I hook the ol' ipod up.

I just got my iPod for Christmas and I knew about editing the firmware, but I'm afraid it voids my warranty, and I don't feel like scanning over 400 lines of text for something relevant. In short, does doing this void your standard Apple warranty?

No, seriously, get him.

Just went at him because viper is a mate of mine.

Technically, yes it does.

Practically, you can allways flash the default firmware on and apple will never know.

Also if the iPod is broken to the point that you cant even try to put the default firmware, apple won't know since they use exactly the same methods of throubleshooting as the user does. Typically they just take a dump of your harddrive (if they can), and stick it on a new one for you.

Do you need to reformat the ipod in the process of updating the firmware?

If you edit your SysInfo file you can fool the updater into thinking you have an older version of the firmware, therefore 'updating' it so you dont loose anything.

Add me to MSN if you need some help, I've got nothing better to do

 

[v1p3r]

Can't edit now >: '(

I had a look in the firmware, it seems to be compressed or encrypted so hacking it is beyond my limited abilities

I couldn't find any firmware hackers for your player either.

Cool... I think i'll get myself an iPod too... lol
