Finding an exploit.

[GoogleCodeExporter]

ChronicDev Team,

I have been thinking of any way that would allow you to get inside the ipod
on a windows or mac computer.  I am using windows so here is my idea:
If you could find a way to open the ipod in windows explorer through my
computer.  There may be some files that could help you.  The ipod already
allows you to view a downloaded pictures folder through my computer but the
rest of the ipod is invisible.  I accidentally achieved this when i was
browsing through a friends ipod and had no experience with them.  I did not
install itunes but i installed the ipod and i saw all of the ipods system
files through my computer.

My other thought was if there was any way of modifying the backed up data
in c:\Documents and settings\USERNAME\application data. (that is on a
windows PC obviously).  Would it be possile to add some extra files in to
the backed up data then restore the ipod with a modified backup.  

I am not a very experienced hacker so please dont just laugh in my face. 
Your team are working towards a jailbreak in the Ipod Touch 2g and i just
hope i can help.

Thanks for your time,

Alex

Guys, this is not a forum.  Stop posting random comments.  These guys dont need
hundreds of people telling them they are behing them as it dosent really help.  
Just
lay of the posts.  Unless you have a good idea or a suggestion for finding an 
exploit
then please do not post.

Alex

I'm sorry so all you whiners keep your comments to your self. All iwant to know 
is what steps you take to be 
an exploit. I'm sorry for being a noob but  I didn't have a mommy and daddy to 
pay for all the things that you 
guys take for granted. So please help me help you. It might only take a noob 
and his friends to jailbreak this 
awsome piece of technology. Don't be ignorant please I'm only trying to expand 
my knowledge

dude this isn't the place for that. Go post on ipodtouchfans, and don't go 
around
bashing other people about thing you have no clue. Just understand. 
Realistically,
stop whining and don't expect a jailbreak within 3 months

device...sorry.

(sorry for the double post)
2 questions:

1. why not figure out how the ipod accesses the app store/itunes over wifi, 
then set
up your router to redirect that url to a "special" app store stored on your 
computer? 

2. (this is mainly directed at will.chronicdev) im as sick as everyone else is 
about
everyone asking when the jailbreak is coming.
is there a way to post a huge message on the front page of the google code site 
that
there is no way of knowing when it is gonna happen?

it wouldn't be a problem if people would start to use their goddamn brain.
when reading some posts on here i feel the urge to slam my head in to my 
keyboard
just out of the pure stupidity of the post.

oh my gawd, stop double posting. (i mean that in the nicest way possible)

@bOsSrAnDy try asking will.chronicdev about that. im almost sure that it's 
already
been done, but it can't hurt. im suprised that you found the chronic dev team 
in only
2 days. they're not that well known.

sense.

@ katielyse that was kind of rude. all i had was a suggestion and you felt the 
need
to flame me like that. 

well, stealing apps might not be such a bad idea...how would that work? (or 
were you
just so caught up in flaming me that you didnt know what you said?)

@ spiderfan
That was my sisters account. My bad.
However I  meant everything I said. I just spent a lot of time in the wii 
community
before homebrew was possible, so this question still annoys me.

Here is the guy the did what I  am talking about.

I hope that shows you what I mean.
