Setting up the HackRF PortaPack

[@bilalbokhari]

It was an absolute pleasure meeting you at Defcon!

[@SecuritySync]

Hey there, cool stuff!!! What are you working on now with SDR?

[@MyTube4Utoo]

Very helpful. Thanks guys.

[@SecuritySync]

Glad you like it. Anything else about the PortaPack that you want to see a video on?

[@MyTube4Utoo]

@@SecuritySync Honestly, I just got mine, know very little about it, so probably anything would be new to me.

[@ergonomiczero2228]

For the on/off button, one of those little plastic bread loaf bag cinchers works, too

[@SecuritySync]

It's like they're pre-made for that purpose. 🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂

[@DodgeMcCarty]

I have a door latch shim I put there for storage and as a stop for the button

[@SecuritySync]

I know some people 3D print button guards.

[@mysafename1694]

On the list of gadgets that I need to get. I just wanna make sure whatever one I order will be able to be upgraded.

[@SecuritySync]

Search for "Portapack H2 Mayhem" and you'll get the right gear. We discuss this in the chapter starting at 6:19 in. kzbin.info/www/bejne/mqiolYpsm811i8U

i was thinking for the on off button for the portapack it would be better to just lift the 2 pins on the encoder and solder them onto a simple switch. more reliable

[@SecuritySync]

That makes too much sense. 😂😂😂😂😂

[@mysafename1694]

I just received mine yesterday. It's the clear see-through with the blue LED lights. How do I completely shut it down so it's not on all night the blue lights stayed on and I could not get them to go off. Could not find any hidden switches or buttons there's nothing in the menus anywhere that I could find. How do you turn it off before putting the SD card back in? I don't see anywhere on the menu. I know that you need to switch off power before switching antennas could damage the final. Can I bring over some of the TV remotes I have from my flipper Air conditioning controls and a couple door locks from our RV

[@SecuritySync]

Just disconnect the USB/power cable and double-click the dial quickly. It's not only a dial, but it's also a push button. 😂

[@SecuritySync]

TV remote: Most likely, you can capture and replay remote control signals, but there isn't a "make it easy" application.

Sir what i want to know is if i only use it in my room to spoof some games with gps spoofing how i will get caught and i am not doint it for something really illegal .

[@SecuritySync]

Hah, I can't tell people directly in a public forum to do something illegal. The technology will probably do what you want.

[@Nebullaplayz]

Bro how much are gps trnasmission of hack rf covers and can i use it in my room to spoof gps location of games is it safe?

[@SecuritySync]

Let's start with: it's illegal to use the GPS spoofer in the US and a lot of other countries. The signal strength is not strong, so the area of effect is limited. But technically speaking: for just a phone, that's close, it might work. However, if it's a phone, you can manipulate the GPS through the debug or developer interface. And some games are wise to this, so if you're in Paris, London, and Singapore in just 5 minutes, they know you're cheating. 😂😂😂

[@fabiomariotti_ps]

Hoi CTO, you cannot use a shell? :) .. indeed the video was interesting.

[@SecuritySync]

Hahaha, typing and talking at the same time is hard. I've been using Linux full-time since 1996, and as soon as I do it on camera, it's like 90% of my smarts fly out the window.

[@Nebullaplayz]

Sir i dont want to get in trouble thats why i am asking sir if its ok please let me know to spoof it for some games

[@SecuritySync]

Then it's best if you don't.

[@Nebullaplayz]

Can anybody buy rhis or itrequire some kind of license orauthorization?

[@SecuritySync]

Anybody can buy it. It's not FCC-approved. Most of the uses where you transit are technically illegal or really illegal. 🤣

[@Nebullaplayz]

@@SecuritySync what do u mean?
