DCT - Possible xHP Flash

[JohnDaviz]

Everybody is entitled to submit an offer in an open bid project. This way ppl also may find each other.. but okay..i just gave my opinion. I hope we will get something in the end.

I’m not saying you’re wrong, rather that the professionals may not see the amount we have to offer enough to get them interested. Then there’s the matter of who would “own” the exploit.

 

[aus335iguy]

Regardless we have to come up with an amount of money to make this happen

So, just to keep things moving I pledge 150 USD. Dirt Kurt already said he’d give 500. My assumption is USD please copy and paste into your post the complete list and add your donation amount(so @JohnDaviz doesn’t have to )

Again, the money is in the mapping. Without the ability to lock down the flashing process people won't want to give that up. The only other way is to pay a collection of individuals who each have the separate skills necessary. The problem is this application is very specific and trying to do it remotely is like giving the steps to perform heart surgery through email. They need a bench setup, it's like having a dev kit. Someone get the mechatronics alive on the bench, figure out the pins, read and write to it normally. Then send these bench setups to people who may have the skills to mess with it further. So if we want to pool money, that's probably the best use for it.

The spare/donated Mech unit will be sent hopefully by lunchtime today. I fear it’s not functional and needs some work first.

That’s quite the list. @doublespaces do you think we should open the donation system ?

I'd like to see one or two Flex devices purchased.

 

[aus335iguy]

Do we collectively agree that’s the best way forward? I agree we need at least one, two would be great.

I’m losing track of which thread is doing what. As long as there is a plan put in place and the solution works on early e series n55 I would pitch in at least $100

I am not sure if this is what ppl expected to be. Sadly it is completely not how i imagine this donation/collection of money for hacking our TCU.

Good luck with this.

I’m sorry you feel that way. Maybe explain how you expect it to be ?

These both look interesting and have similar capability to flex if I’m not mistaken?
