Nothing can stop this man. Another super vid!

Please keep doing things like this. I have a grandson, and he and I are both learning cybersecurity, among other things. I want to help him and myself to take back the power from those who seek to control us.

"You could have a battery powered rooted LTE device that you could carry around with you and do all sorts of fun things!" WAHOO!!! Ha ha ha ha.

i once sold a modified mp4 player that I was working on for fun. I renamed it's bluetooth name to 'Justin Bieber' and sold the (approximately. $50) noname player for $250. is this considered ethical hacking yet? 🙈

Is the Shopify website builder the new 5-minute wordpress templates for e-commerce sites? :D Also; you just put your feet on the Internet. So, yeah, that's going to be out there forever now.

Civic duty would be to run '> *.php'

Electrolytic capacitors are in practice always polarized, so the pin on the side of the capacitor can with stripes are always ground.

If you're gonna use Copper stripe you might as well use flux to get the best of hot air gun and the Copper stripe

Any recommended programmer other than xgecu?

mad skills bro

I need to find a oscilloscope to see voltage waves that’s a reasonable price

I don’t know what 60% of what this is but it dumps dopamine into my brain!! How do I begin my Tech journey! I took an informatics course and made it to the instal os/ drivers part… but that was 11 years ago D,,,x

29:41 we all felt that mild discomfort lmao so humbling

Great Job,

literally TRIPPPED BALLS, My real last name on paper, and govt files is Brown!its 5:17am and im scrolling randomly and i see this and click to hear "hey Matt brown here." at the start i literally set my full 100% un-devided attention to this entire video. i love all the technical basics of just how things work,this.... this kind of shit man , i wish i had gotten more into it when i was younger and not into the stupid shit i do today. so keep on learning man! i too live by what you said at the end we do all make mistakes but what we do afterwords is what truly defines us! haha (side note: Bruyere is just my other parents last name)

Loving these videos, thanks!

Matt, Do the world a favour and show us how to use old Vivinet security cameras that are supposedly unusable for any purpose other than Vivinet. Vivient specialized in defrauding the vulnerable, signing old aged people for fraudulent contracts.

Hey @Matt Brown, I able to extraction of any firmware because i'm laptop repair technician but i don't know that do next after get firmware for any iot device. I use binwalk for Extraction but don't know more about how find vulnerability. I want move in hardware hacking please guide me!

I’m nowhere near as technical but this was really entertaining and informative just watching the thought process and steps you take to reverse engineer this thing

you could save most of your time by dump the spi chip directly instead of using uboot and terminal, there are sop16 clipper available, you don't even have to solder, and plus a ch341a programmer might only costs $10 writing a script to convert hex text to binary file is just for show, have heard of "past from hex text" menu in 010editor/imhex/winhex? btw, a little tip, if you have issue to stop uboot or whatever bootloader from auto booting, just short the emmc/eeprom/nand flash data pins, if it cant read data to ram, it cant boot, most of those evil bootloader will drop you to the shell if boot fail

Those POTS ports are not for DSL but conventional phones. It converts them to VoIP

I'm a tech software engineer and I watched you doing magic today. I do projects in python and other languages in my free time, and I felt your passion. I'm going watch and learn more from you buddy, keep going the good work!

I dont undersdqnt any of it but i enjoyed watchig it is it means like when he got into the router and got the full control of it since it can be powered by batteries is it possible to run it make it free wifi and gather ip addresses and hack simultaneously while sittin on cafe or something

This is really educational.

Exactly what I needed. Thank you. Just got a T48 reader and do not want to go back to windoze for that.

Tullio must have spent some bread at Google I'm sick of seeing him 😒

I think some IT guys checked the server and removed backdoors. However, the critical vuln is still there.

Matt, its Igor. Thanks for all. Now how to Jailbreak myself? Haha.. mad stuff

👋 hello Matt. awesome video. I see you from Chile

I never seen you dude, but just 'coz of your first few secs of your video I already liked you and subbed; we're of the same "Tribe": The Tinkerers 😁👍

simple issue just never ever ever use ISP provided routers

Your videos are real eye openers for ppl that have been away from the profession, for years in my case. Thank you.

That 4G module I got once in a Mini PC(x86 based) Is quiet generic and to use it you just need a SIM card slot (can be motherboard or adapter card) and a mini PCIE slot(mostly for older WiFi cards as newer boards mostly come with M.2, but for 4G/5G modules is still mostly with mini PCIE) that thing can work with windows(need to install driver) also linux(on Ubuntu 24.04 work out of box)

Subscribed! And man impressive skills with Python, on par with your knowledge of circuit boards, microchips, everything. I laughed when you saw spi and went like "ah this is SPI type of storage yeah okay I know", etc. LOL! I enjoyed every bit of it, one of the best videos I've stumbled upon as of lately.

Amazing video, having XIAO RP2040 laying around this should work too. Did you test if it can communicate with the JTAG port of your STM32?

Nice one, keep going dude! another good tool to mount files over the net is sshfs :)

Previously I used flashrom, I will check this out

Great!

32:53 You know, I didn't know that you could actually change root being uid 0, I mean it makes sense but weird with security tips like "don't use ssh under default port" (Security by obscurity so I don't agree with it) that there wouldn't be ones like change root username (although I think most don't recommend allowing ssh root login)

That is really cool! Waited a long time to find a programmer that has support for an apparently obscure FLASH chip on toshiba hardisk PCBs called 25U81A (apparently used to store the cached data in disk RAM in case of an unexpected power failure). Finally I can add it myself! I'll order a T48 today!

I'm glad there is an open source Linux alternative, but it's a little insulting to the developers who worked on the original project to call their software sketchy just because they're from another country and it's not open source. Imagine if you had to work as a closed source developer to feed yourself and someone was insulting your work? That developer could be doing their best but some guy on the internet decides they're malicious just because you're from another country.

Thanks for the info, keep up the great vids for sure! ;)

Brother please guide me 🙏🏻 , I am facing some challenges, the challenge is, I have a Karbonn Titanium S1 Plus without battery and without screen but have its charger and I have another device battery which is totally similar to Karbonn i.e. output voltage, input voltage, max voltage but mAh is different so I want to factory reset it in this condition and i had connected Karbonn to my pc and checked in device manager of pc in port section, there my Karbonn device was showing and saying that It is in good condition, I had gone to mobile repair shop and showed him the condition of device they said they don't have battery and display of this device because this brand is not available and said rarely you will get these parts in any unknown old smartphone repair shop, and I have seen many of your videos about doing things like firmware extraction or other things so I think you will know how to do and i hope you will help me .

@8:10 why does the “uhhh” sound so weird??

nice seeing open source software replacing proprietary software for good hardware.

FYI the large socket is called a ZIF (Zero Insertion Force) socket.

Can someone build an open source T56 using something like the RP2354B? The PIO’s on board along with the rest of the hardware blocks COULD be enough to implement one… 🤔 maybe we should start one?

You rock man! Keep going!!

Hey matt, can you help me with read a MB9AF004BGL-G-103-ERE1??? I will pay for it. Cheers
