Talk:Sn0wbreeze

Themes
Now that sn0wbreeze is open-source, would anyone be interested in themes for it? I have been going through and improving the underlying code for a few days now, soon to be on my github or something. It is really simple to change the UI for it, so anyone interested? --JakeAnthraX 01:07, 19 November 2010 (UTC)
 * I would like the ability NOT to install Cydia, since we can now only install SSH+afc2. Just like in "Micro$oft v. the European Union", 90% of the users will be happy with the defaults, but th3 g33kz aren't. :)
 * Also, an easier way to enter pwned DFU (like, from the main page).
 * The biggest problem, to be fair, is that downloading packages from saurik's source is broken. The package "apt" ends up containing a colon in the filename (impossible in a Windows environment) due to its version number. Thanks in advance for considering these improvements! --Ryccardo 14:39, 19 November 2010 (UTC)
 * The funny part is that I already did put another menu on the top to DFU Pwner. I am going to keep Cydia on there for most users. I am hopefully adding custom fonts on it too. Since that is the first thing I do when I jailbreak. --JakeAnthraX 20:12, 19 November 2010 (UTC)

2.2
There is now 2.2r3 and 2.2.1 versions of sn0wbreeze, drag'n'drop in 2.2.1 is cool! --Srb21103 02:28, 23 February 2011 (UTC)
 * Added. -- Dialexio 03:19, 21 February 2011 (UTC)

sn0wbreeze for 5.0b
If snowbreeze works by decrypting and can jailbreak all supported devices couldn't we rip the vfdecrypt keys out of it's source code? I looked at the 4.3.3 code and yes they were there. --Balloonhead66 12:50, 12 July 2011 (UTC)
 * Are any keys missing? It would probably be easier to ask IH8sn0w or look into the source code on github instead of reverse engineering sn0wbreeze. -- http 21:39, 12 July 2011 (UTC)
 * Yes, iPhone 4 GSM, iPad 2 and iPod touch 3G. And since no computer based exploit exists, how did we get the keys for 4.3.1, .2, and .3 on the iPad 2 if the ramdisks are encrypted? --Balloonhead66 22:14, 12 July 2011 (UTC)
 * For some reason, Apple never encrypted the ramdisks for 4.3.1-4.3.3. All you had to do was pass the ramdisks through xpwntool without supplying an IV or key. -- Dialexio 00:22, 13 July 2011 (UTC)
 * The source code has about half of the 2.6.1 code and the modIPSW.vb file is for 2.5.1 (4.3.2) for some reason. And I wasnt talking about reverse engineering it though --Balloonhead66 22:01, 12 July 2011 (UTC)
 * Well then can we template it with that note? I think I will do that when in a bit. --Balloonhead66 01:33, 13 July 2011 (UTC)
 * But the sc on Git-Hub doesnt show all of 2.6.1's code, let alone 2.8 --Balloonhead66 01:33, 13 July 2011 (UTC)
 * sn0wbreeze's 2.6.1 source is basically the same throughout 2.7.3 (just keys/patches/untether binaries were changed). As for the beta releases of sn0wbreeze, I will not be publishing them to ensure that people will not re-release them with UDID protection removed or afc2 added. --iH8sn0w 02:07, 13 July 2011 (UTC)
 * That makes sense. But when you come out with a release, could you at least post the keys you used somewhere online? None of the iPod touch 3g keys have been filled for the 5.0 beta. --Balloonhead66 03:20, 13 July 2011 (UTC)
 * It shouldn't have to be my responsibility to post keys. :/ --iH8sn0w 03:26, 13 July 2011 (UTC)
 * I am not saying it is. --Balloonhead66 03:28, 13 July 2011 (UTC)

Someone knows how to make a tethered custom IPSW, like sn0wbreeze ones? Is it just add Cydia, patch IBSS and create IPSW (and boot with limera1n)? --Zmaster 20:00, 12 July BRA)
 * You can create an ipsw with sn0wbreeze and compare the differences. Not very complicated. -- http 17:08, 13 July 2011 (UTC)
