2.0 beta 8 key?
Would anyone, by any chance, have the key for 2.0 build 5A345? For some reason, it's missing on this page. -Dialexio 16:13, 17 August 2008 (UTC)

iKeys
I was wondering if anyone had any info on "iKeys". It's mentioned here at the bottom. I'd Imagine it's like GenPass but just wondering. Any info is appreciated. --OMEGA_RAZER

Exploit?
am i to understand that a low level exploit is needed to get the vfdecrypt key??? --Shengis14 18:50, 8 October 2010 (UTC)
 * No, that's not completely true. :P One has to manage to get the key/iv for an update/restore ramdisk, and then use Genpass to get a VFDecrypt key. --dra1nerdrake 21:27, 8 October 2010 (UTC)

And how would someone like myself go about getting the Key/IV for an update/restore ramdisk --Shengis14 22:13, 8 October 2010 (UTC)
 * You would need at least an iBoot exploit and a payload to upload that is able to access the AES engine of the device. --OMEGA RAZER 22:16, 8 October 2010 (UTC)
 * It's just one of the reasons I'm confused is how is there a sudden jump in the number of vfdecrypt keys for the iPod touch 3G on like 4.0-1??
 * There isnt a exploit that is iBoot or lower for that device. Any thoughts ? --Shengis14 22:50, 8 October 2010 (UTC)

New page?
I think we should make a new page detailing how to utilise Gojohnnyboi's AES payload to get the keys including screenies on opening up an img3 in a hex editor and getting the KBAG etc. Then the keys won't be left to the main devs and iH8sn0w to post. Then all these beta FWs can be decrypted faster and more keys can be posted. I myself would definitely be interested in getting the KBAG etc. and if anybody could create such a page then I would definitely be interested in posting keys myself. Once created the page shouldn't need too much housekeeping either since the process won't change until IMG4 comes along which I will dread :P Who's up to it?? blackthund3r 11:43, 20 October 2010 (UTC)

3GS 3.1.3
And the key for 3gs 3.1.3 firmware? --L0g0 01:26, 26 July 2010 (UTC)
 * You mean these? -- Dialexio 01:54, 26 July 2010 (UTC)

http's edit
Where did 3140 come from? Was it a typo? --5urd 18:01, 13 October 2011 (MDT)
 * That's what the ATV displays. I didn't look at the ipsw yet. -- http 18:03, 13 October 2011 (MDT)
 * Well, there may be two firmwares, the original 4.4 9A334v and not 3140... but that doesn't seem like apple to break a standard like build codes... --5urd 18:05, 13 October 2011 (MDT)
 * No, not two firmwares, just the display. -- http 11:49, 18 October 2011 (MDT)
 * The display shows this (in About menu):

Apple TV-Software    4.4 (3140) Apple TV-Software    4.4.2 (3160)
 * As this is obviously not a build number, any idea what this is? --http 16:30, 24 October 2011 (MDT)
 * I will assume that 4.4.1 would be (3150)... @http, I would assume that the reason you couldn't update was that Apple had briefly pulled it... --5urd 17:12, 24 October 2011 (MDT)
 * Well, shortly after 4.4.2 came out, I clicked on update. After the update the version shown was still 4.0 (3140). But a few minutes later, a push update came through and asked me to update again. After that was through, the above mentioned 4.4.2 (3160) was shown. Quite strange. --http 06:13, 25 October 2011 (MDT)
 * Fail in build? --5urd 14:04, 26 October 2011 (MDT)

Moving VFDecrypt Keys to Firmware Keys
This page now encompasses more than just VFDecrypt's keys. To an extent, it encompasses xpwntool's keys also. We also don't list the keys here, but just a link to the article that does. I think that this warrants a rename to Firmware Keys. It will be a big task to fix the redirects, but it can be done. Any ideas or objections? --5urd (talk) 20:03, 13 August 2013 (UTC)
 * I am for the idea of this. If you want, I could help too. --adaminsull (talk) 11:19, 14 August 2013 (UTC)
