mkfhello18:12
mkfi've got a new n900, which is sadly locked18:14
mkfwhat can i do for it?18:14
WizzupBy locked you mean that you do not know the lock code?19:17
Wizzupfreemangordon: do you know if it is possible to write a new code to cal from maemo leste? Then we can tell people to boot into maeom leste rescue mode and run a command19:22
freemangordonyes, but I am not sure tools are there19:30
freemangordoncaltool perhaps, have to check what we have packaged19:30
freemangordonnot sure where to find it (caltool)19:31
freemangordonWizzup: can't find it, I guess noone put it over the inet for security reasons :)19:33
freemangordonoh, this https://github.com/maemo-leste/libdevlock/blob/master/devlocktool.c19:35
freemangordonmkf: well, it turned out #maemo-leste was the proper channel to ask19:37
freemangordonso, you should be able to boot u-boot visa flasher and then boot leste from uSD card19:38
freemangordonthen, from leste you can use devlocktool to change the lock code19:39
freemangordonthat's the theory19:39
mkffreemangordon: flashed first version of frametale, used john to crack it and it worked! :)21:14
Wizzupnice21:28
drathir_tormkf: easiest way just reflash... and its most likely adviced anyway You not sure what previous owner does with it... also \o/ to get such nice device in working state...21:39
joergreflash won't unlock22:56
joergiirc22:56
drathir_torjoerg: full one too ?23:03
* drathir_tor not remember corectly tbh but if not wrong there was possible to do a system and userspace separate flashing... ?23:06
* drathir_tor missing old good times of play with n900... 23:06
joergit's unclear if a full reflash will clear the "ask for unlock code" flag, it certainly will not reset the unlock-code hash in CAL. >>used john to crack it and it worked!<< is known to work if you can read CAL23:19
