Annotations

  1. The "Nano" 6G is something entirely new, that doesn't seem to have much in common with the older generations of the Nano series. We don't yet know how this device works and if we want to do something with it at all.
  2. 2.0 2.1 We need a new exploit to execute code on this device.
  3. UART is not really needed here as we can already access the device via USB.
  4. iBugger is being replaced with emBIOS.
  5. 5.0 5.1 5.2 5.3 This iBugger version is very limited as we only have access to the SRAM. This is because the bigger SDRAM is not initialized at the time when our exploit is launched. Someone needs to figure out how to initialize it.
  6. 6.0 6.1 6.2 Should be similar to the iPod Classic 1G, but wasn't tested on this platform yet.
  7. 7.0 7.1 7.2 The code is complete, but was only tested on one of the LCD types that were used in this series yet.
