Re: How can you tell if a used Revue is rootable?

I read somewhere that someone who bought a refurbished Revue couldn't root it because it was already updated. I wouldn't take the risk.

Re: Can't access recovery menu on rooted 2.1

Ok, I'm not sure why, but I'm able to access the recovery menu only when I don't connect 3.3V to my USB to TTL device.

Can't access recovery menu on rooted 2.1

I can't seem to get the recovery menu to come up when I try to get into recovery on my rooted 2.1 Revue. I can actually get to the start of the recovery with the Google TV logo and a progress bar underneath it (basically looks like this minus all the text and with a progress bar underneath), but I n...

Re: CBS.com & modified flash (content block bypass)

I suspected that was the answer, but I was hoping that there would be another way. I had the hardest time soldering to the ground pin when I rooted my Revue.

Re: CBS.com & modified flash (content block bypass)

If I'm already on rooted b54202, what's the procedure for updating to the new one?

Re: Speaking outloud, so slap me...

based on threads title... i feel i can speak of things i have no knowledge about. that said, it seems one system would take more than a lifetime to crack the encryption on the revue. it'd be comparable to hitting the lottery. a very very expensive lottery. with lots of other possible numbers. what ...

Rooted 2.1 is already capable of content bypass, so I'm not sure why you would need to try this.

Re: Speaking outloud, so slap me...

Reality (the user who has been replying to this thread so far) already gave an optimistic example that it would take 120,989 years to crack 184 bit encryption, so if we take 1% of that, it would be 1,210 years, and this is only with 184 bit. You still need to double the time with each incremental b...

Re: Speaking outloud, so slap me...

I think you missed my point of how we brute forced and that where I did say we got lucky. The idea is not to start a 0 and count up, but in turn methodically randomly pick key and try them. After a key has been test and fails, randomly pick another one. Not saying it would get the key, but saying t...

Re: Are new ($99) revues still rootable

I bought one in mid-September and it was still rootable. It seems like they're not going to bother disabling it in more recent devices, or maybe they still have yet to sell through their original production run.
