Decrypt iPhone filesystem Firmware using Mac OS or Linux

If you use Mac OS and want to extract the iPhone Firmware in your computer, you can follow the instructions below. If you use Windows PC, please refer to another post here

(1) get the vfdecrypt binary for Mac (Universal Binary)

Get vfdecrypt for Mac (Intel & PPC) Unverisal Binary here

If you use linux, you can get the source code from here and compile with

gcc vfdecrypt.c -o vfdecrypt -lcrypto

For this linux version, line 357 should be changed to

  while((c = getopt(argc, argv, "hvi:o:p:k:")) != -1) {

Read this on how to find the key for firmware 1.1.1 or above

For example, firmware 1.1.4, you can find the decrypt key by running this in Mac OS X Terminal

#!/bin/bash
# first extract the ramdisk image file from the ipsw file
unzip -o iPhone1,1_1.1.4_4A102_Restore.ipsw 022-3896-4.dmg -d .

# strip off the first 0x800 bytes and the trailing certificate
dd if=022-3896-4.dmg of=022-3896-4.stripped.dmg bs=512 skip=4 count=36640 conv=sync

# use the method of GEORGE HOTZ and ignore the error
openssl enc -d -in 022-3896-4.stripped.dmg -out ramdisk-022-3896-4.dmg  -aes-128-cbc -K 188458A6D15034DFE386F23B61D43774 -iv 0

# print out the ramdisk key from the image
strings ramdisk-022-3896-4.dmg | egrep "^[0-9a-fA-F]{72}$"

If you have the 8900decryptor binary, you can get the same decrypted image file and key from

#!/bin/bash
./8900decryptor 022-3896-4.dmg 022-3896-4.8900decrypted.dmg
strings 022-3896-4.8900decrypted.dmg | egrep "^[0-9a-fA-F]{72}$"

Create US iTunes Account (if you are outside US and don't have US credit card)

see here for the latest instruction for App Store purchase without US credit card information
http://tungchingkai.blogspot.com/2008/12/create-us-itunes-account-without-credit.html


Recently there were problems upgrading of iPod Touch to firmware 1.1.3 for countries where there is no iTunes Music Store. Below is one of the methods that you can create US iTunes Account.

(1) Goto this website http://www.tunecore.com/freealbum
and get a Redeem code (see below screen dump) to redeem it in US iTunes Store (you need iTunes Application in your PC/Mac)
Code Expiration: September 30th, 2008

(2) Open iTunes and click iTunes store. Look at the right handside and found the quick links. Click the “Redeem” under quick links.

(3) Enter the code you copied from Step 1.

(4) Choose to create a new account. Enter a valid US address (find it in Google), you need valid and matching city (e.g. Piscataway), state(e.g. NJ) and zipcode (e.g. 08854) and telephone number (3 digits for area code and 7 digits for telephone number) e.g. (852)9123456 and you own email address. Choose none for payment method to create a new iTunes Account.

You find a valid address in US, you can also make use of Google Map in iPhone. For example, first search a city say San Franciso, then search Starbucks.

(5) Then you will get 34 free songs from iTunes and these songs will goto your "purchased" playlist. Now you can grab the Album Art and free song of the week.

(6) Buy US iTunes gift certificate from ebay (search here) or from your friend in US (tell him to email you the Activation Code and the Card Serial Number)




(7) Redeem your gift certificate in iTunes and start enjoy purchase songs and videos or upgrade your iPod Touch to Firmware 1.1.3 (you need US$19.99 + tax)

(8) Sometimes, the activation code of the gift certificate is difficult to read, after a few retries, you will be presented with a help link that put you to another screen and ask you to input the activation code and card serial number from the bottom left hand side of the iTunes gift card (as per screen dump below)

(9) Alternatively, even with no value in iTunes account you could get free iTunes songs from here

e.g. in Hong Kong Public Library

export http_proxy="http://hkclproxy.hkpl.gov.hk:8080"

(3) svn (subversion)

edit the [global] section in this file ~/.subversion/server

e.g. in Hong Kong Public Library

[global]
http-proxy-host = hkclproxy.hkpl.gov.hk
http-proxy-port = 8080

(4) wget

add the following to ~/.wgetrc file:

http_proxy = http://hkclproxy.hkpl.gov.hk:8080/
use_proxy = off
wait = 15

use the following command option --proxy say to enable ad hoc proxy

wget --proxy http://www.google.com/

Automount SD card in EEE PC

1. sudo mksir /mnt/SDCARD
   
2. Edit /etc/udev/rules.d/50-xandros-udev.rules
3. Find the comment

   # usb, removable storage

4. Immediately after this comment, so that it will replace the Asus dialog, add the following line, changing the serial number to match your device and optionally changing the name SDCARD (in both places)

BUS=="usb", KERNEL=="sd*", SYSFS{serial}=="146030377350"
, NAME="SDCARD", OPTIONS+="last_rule"
, RUN+="/bin/mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt/SDCARD"

Configure mount point

1. Edit /etc/fstab
2. Add a new line at the end

/dev/sdb1              /mnt/SDCARD    vfat    rw,uid=user

Format SD card to Linux filesystem in eee pc

fdisk to show your drives:

Code:
sudo fdisk -l

login as root and umount your SD card:

Code:
sudo -s
umount /dev/sdb1

fdisk to create partition /dev/sdb of SD card:

Code:
fdisk /dev/sdb
New > Primary > Enter > Write > “yes” > Quit

Format new partition /dev/sdb1 to ext3 filesystem:

Code:
mke2fs -c /dev/sdb1 # format to ext2
tune2fs -j /dev/sdb1 # convert to ext3 (optional)
e2label /dev/sdb1 SDCARD # set volume label to “SDCARD”

change ownership to user for the SDCARD after remount:

Code:
sudo chown -R user:user /media/MMC-SD/SDCARD

iPhone development using windows XP/Vista

For iPhone firmware 1.1.x development

A pre-complied binary for iPhone Toolchain (for firmware 1.1.x) is available.  It is called winchain

http://code.google.com/p/winchain/wiki/HowToUse


For iPhone firmware 2.x development
Please refer to my latest article on the iPhone toolchain SDK2.0 development
on Ubuntu as a virtual machine in Virtual PC 2007 for Windows XP/Vista

Install Fedora 8 in Virtual PC 2007

For installation of Fedora in Virtual PC 2007, there are problems of display and mouse during graphical installation and when using X Window.

The problems can be solved by changing the kernel paramemter in the boot option and changing the grub.conf and xorg.conf after 1st boot of post installation

(1) at the 1st [graphical] screen, hit TAB to modify boot params;

- it will show "vmlinuz initrd=initrd.img";

- add "vesa i8042.noloop psmouse.proto=imps clock=pit"

Details:

- "vesa" selects "vesa" driver instead of the "s3" one; mandatory if you

want the graphics installer. This also allowed "Millions of colors" to be used post-install.

- "i8042.noloop" makes the PS/2 mouse work, otherwise it's stuck in the center of the screen; reference: comment #45 at

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=223606

- "psmouse.proto=imps" makes the mouse wheel work; optional as it's not that usefull during the install, but usefull to add it to kernel options for normal system use.

- "clock=pit", according to a MSKB article, resolves some problems with the time[r]; don't know how usefull is it during the install.

(2) at the 2nd [graphical] screen after boot of post install, hit TAB to modify boot params;

- add "vga=771 1"

so that the installation will go to linux single mode

(3) Edit the /etc/grub.conf

- add "vesa vga=771 i8042.noloop psmouse.proto=imps clock=pit"

(4) Edit the /etc/X11/xorg.conf and change default pixel depths to 16 from 24

iPhone ToolChain build in EEE pc

My new EEE PC goes to technical support today due to internet sharing connection failed problem.

Today I download the iPhoneToolChain binary (intel) and install it in my ppc mac

(beware, it will overwrite your linker /usr/bin/ld)
and I have to reinstall the xcode in order to solve the problem as my ppc cannot run intel binary obviously.

http://iphone.natetrue.com/iPhoneToolchainv05.dmg

the MakeFile should be changed to

CC=/usr/local/arm-apple-darwin/bin/gcc
CXX=/usr/local/arm-apple-darwin/bin/g++
CFLAGS=-fsigned-char
LDFLAGS=-Wl,-syslibroot,/usr/local/arm-apple-darwin/heavenly
-lobjc -ObjC
-framework CoreFoundation
-framework Foundation
-framework UIKit
-framework LayerKit
-framework CoreGraphics
-framework GraphicsServices
-framework Celestial
-framework MusicLibrary

This version of ToolChain seems to have a more complete header files than self build one

http://code.google.com/p/iphone-dev/wiki/Building

My objective is to put the binary file to my new EEE PC Linux for later iPhone development work.

If you need the iphone header file for 1.1.2, get it here
http://ericasadun.com/ftp/Misc/

For example, I modified the Makefile for iCountDown as below

APP=iCountDown

CC=arm-apple-darwin-gcc
LD=$(CC)

CFLAGS=-I/usr/local/arm-apple-darwin/include/ -fsigned-char

LDFLAGS=-lobjc \
 -framework CoreFoundation \
 -framework Foundation \
 -framework UIKit \
 -framework LayerKit \
 -framework CoreGraphics \
 -framework WebCore \
 -framework GraphicsServices

all:    ${APP}.app/${APP}

${APP}.app/${APP}:  main.o iCountDown.o CDList.o SetupView.o CustomTable.o CustomTableCell.o ToggleDisplayView.o
 $(LD) $(LDFLAGS) -v -o $@ $^

%.o:    %.m
  $(CC) -c $(CFLAGS) $(CPPFLAGS) $< -o $@

nice:
  rm -f *.o

clean:
  rm -f *.o ${APP}.app/${APP}
