Homebrew SigHax Updates and Discussion Thread

[Maestrx]

The person who is trying to dump boot9 said themselves they aren't releasing it to the public because of piracy reasons.

Then how will we get sighax?

I think we get it when another person dumps it and makes it public

 

[proflayton123]

You can use a car without an engine, you can't use sighax without the bootrom

But didn't Derrek already do that? Are we actually gaining anything from Hedgeberg?

Derreck did dump it but never released what tools he used, and of course the bootrom its self. Only details on how to dump it yourself with very precise measures.

From my understanding Derrek was able to dump it. Idk why he didnt release it. If Hedgeberg isnt making it public we are not gaining anything i believe

Then why is everyone cheering for hedgeberg..? Unless he releases it or at least the tools he is using and stuff, aren't we still in the same boat?

I have actually already fixed a few systems that were bricked in the same way, simply use the autofirm pack but drop in the 2.1 FIRM in place of the 10.4 firm, this should fix it as usually the ctrtransfer fails on the installing FIRM step right at the end, so your system is already on 2.1 but just need the 2.1 firm injected over the 11.2 firm

you mean this autofirm?

yeah, just replace the 10.4 firm with the 2.1 firm then run it and restore the patched nand

idk, he could just release the sighax signature without the bootrom itself, but who knows people lately only do stuff to say "did it" and although doing streams etc for something your not actually going to release is a bit.......

 

[pepepotamo]

nah, someone is mistaken about who said what, hedgeberg has expressed his will to release b9

Spoiler

hedge.bin‏ @hedgeberg 5 mar.
@boyschica we have here 1 Extremely Cool Kid. Fyi anyone tells me to hurry up, I delay release of anything by two weeks from completion.

but for the sake of fun arguing, he is free to finally decide against it or even not continuing his process if he gets too pestered about it... or maybe sell the results to someone willing to pay good money for it, lol

All this hedgeberg b9 talk is getting really annoying.

Most people here just want sighax without actually knowing the differences to a9lh.
After finally understanding it's not viable without b9 dumped they cry they want the bootrom, without knowing what to do with it.

Just to make a couple things clear:
1. The bootrom does not need to be public to achieve sighax. It is technically possible that a person who has the bootrom privately creates a sighax signature that could be used publicly.
2. Hedgeberg is not going to release the Bootrom due to legal issues. I did not make that up he actually said it on stream.
3. You don't achieve anything by shouting at hedgeberg. He won't work faster - it will likely demotivate him to do anything in public.

So stop shouting at hedgeberg to get bootrom faster - 90% of the people in this thread wouldn't even know what to do with it anyway.
He may release something that let's people dump it with a simple setup, after he worked everything out. (Source: His Stream)
Please just wait for someone to work out Sighax for the public and you're good.


And if you want to shout at someone or spam someone for bootrom just for the sake of doing so... why don't you spam someone who actually has the bootrom already? (There are multiple people who do)

 

[vb_encryption_vb]

b9 still needs to be bruteforced once dumped as well..

I cant seem to find that file anywhere. Phailects post on mega is dead. :-(

 

[gamesquest1]

Yeah he never had the 2.1 firm on his guide, I got mine manually, but iirc decrypt9 has a feature for dumping the firm binary from the CIA file which can be obtained from the usual places in the firmware packs thread

I doubt Hedgeberg reads this thread lol

 

[TariqSoftDev]

I don't care if hedge releases the bootrom tbh, aslong as he lets us know how it's done then it's fine cause I will do it myself and it's better that way to prevent those bloody noobs from messing with the bootrom and somehow screwing up then we all have to see 1000 shit post threads about "I bricked" or "I think it's broken".

Calm down dude whoa some people are just new to the concept. You were too once. Don't get upset because people want help, even if it is extreeeeemely excessive.

No I'm just saying, yes I was new once but people are screwing up things that have had fail safes put in place so they don't.
Before I would mainly see some exciting new release in the the threads but it's just too much "help" threads would be nice if they had a "help" section so I could go and help when I am not looking for something new.

My main point is making people dump the bootrom themselves will just mean most of the people using the exploit will most likely be more advanced and will lessen these help posts.

I'm not angry at the help threads just tired of seeing so many that are the same, it's like spoon feeding a baby the same stuff over and over and the baby forgets the taste.

Actually, fair enough. I can understand that. Thanks for clearing up I kinda felt like you were being mean for a second but no your argument is true. People tamper with it and then come begging for experienced people to use up precious time fixing their stuff.

No no no tampering is fine it's just people who rightfully know they have 0% clue on what they are doing tamper with it then ask to literally be spoon fed every single step.
Say someone understood 60%-75% of what they're doing then it's fine since we would just need to say "Oh do etc and etc" and that would be the end and generally these people would search the forums for the same problem before making another useless thread.
Tampering is what brought us the exploits , nothing but trial and error but one thing is certain: The people who found the exploits knew fully what they was doing.
