Misc Unlock locked flipnote?

[Oleboy555]

is that possible? I got a locked flipnote on my dsi and wanted to know if i can unlock it.

 

[TylerHartman]

Yes, very possible. However only a select few people know how to do it and no one will do it for you. It's not even worth asking.

 

[Oleboy555]

maybe someone can make the method public?

 

[TylerHartman]

No, that would literally be the worst thing to EVER do!
Stop looking into this, no one will help you.

 

[Oleboy555]

why would that be bad?

I'd imagine it would make it very very easy to steal other people's work

Its a flipnote from back when hatena was still online, I dont see a problem with unlocking it after all these years

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

maybe transfer the dsi flipnote to Flipnote 3D and do something with it there? but I dont know if locked flipnotes are transferable

 

[TylerHartman]

If you are able to unlock a flipnote, you could change other thing about it. EASILY.
The community would be ruined.

It could actually be a good thing, since all those dickwads an sudo like to reupload stuff that someone else has made but locked

Open the flipnote into a hex editor, locate offset 0x0010 then change the hex byte "01" to "00".

But you have to sign it, otherwise it says "File is corrupt". Do you really think Nintendo is that dumb? there is an RSA SHA1 hash

When I did this last time with one of my flipnotes, it didn't come up with that message.

It seems to only apply to the data itself, and not the header.

Okay it doesn't work, so you was right there. I suppose I didn't modify the flipnote with a hex editor but instead use another tool, it was so many years ago that I can't remember it.

Isn't that the Nintendo app you'd make drawings? Can't see harm with that.
