    I can only imagine the complexity of this type of work. Thank you for your work!!
  • Yes what ever happened to me..

    I've been working on trying understanding: how text is placed on screen, so I can workout how the menu's are driven thus be able to "configure" a hack. Part of that has been disassembling the code, finding the data sections (jpgs, overlays, fonts) and related data to control these.
  • Whatever happened to Simeon guy who first decrypted Nikon firmware? Any progress from him?
  • This is an amazingly great news!!! Good job!!!
    Anyone knows if also the Nikon D90 is going to be hacked? I've tried to find and download A and B firmwares for D90, but i can't find them anywhere... Is there a way to dump them directly from the camera?
    Sorry for my english...
  • I want to know what will be the change on the D7000 for video, and whether the hack is very lucky to come out thank you
  • I have no knowledge in programming so myself I cant make any changes. So, all I can do is waiting for some breakthroughs.
  • In my research, trying to find service tools for Nikon, the only tool I found was for D200 remapping dead pixels. Maybe someone find it useful:

  • @Yavaq

    Tool works with D3100 and D5100 firmwares just fine already.
  • If this hack would open the way to decrypt D3100 and D5100, the first feature to hope for would be AF FINE TUNE for general af offset. Nikon af tolerance does no suite our needs. Fine tune presets for 20 lenses in D7000 is great thing, but those entry level users must send camera to Nikon to fix offset for one lens, and they often say it`s in tolerance. Got me frustrated with my D3100.
  • ho my god lol
  • Yeey! more progress! :D keep us updated Vitaliy_Kiselev. What is the roadmap ahead?
  • what the news for the video with the hack of the d7000
  • NTool updated to v1.3

    Now it can extract all JPEG images located inside firmware
    No new parameters are required, it'll just place them in appropriate folders

  • sorry but if someone speak french and could tell me if there is the hack for the nikon d7000,
    desole mais est ce que quelqu un peut me dire on sa en est , si on peut rever hacker le d7000
  • To work on Fujitsu processor module you'll need:

    BCC command line tools
    http://edn.embarcadero.com/article/20633

    How to install
    http://rudeserver.com/how-to/install-borland/

    IDA 5.0 SDK
    FInd it yourself

    Also you'll need special ida.lib from libbor.w32
    It is not available publically, you can contact me and talk about this (as it needs few things fixed)

    Also suggest this free tool (as it'll be required to nake some mods to FR module) :

  • I hope someone will really get this hack going soon. I tried to dabble at it and realized things in this nature are just over my head.
  • @matt1128
    I suggest you to read few messages back.
    First FR mosule must be properly compiled for IDA 5.0 Free.
  • @Vitaliy_Kiselev,

    So which should we be looking at for decompiling, IDA 4.9 Free or 5.0 Free?
    So far I do not have any experience in assembly or machine code (have 5 years programming experience in higher level languages), but I'm willing to put some time into learning what I can if it would help this project.
  • Maybe when a "hack" is finally developed that can offer different bitrates, as well as others video centric features, the "hack" could be applied to any new Nikon DSLRs.
  • so where do we write the wishlist? :) Great to see some initial progress on the D7000 firmware.
  • anything new going on with hack?
  • @Vitaliy,

    I also think that most of the guys working on the decrypting/hack firmware project besides yourself, are do so to more or less improve the photo centric side of the Nikon DSLR cameras not so much for video.
  • @Vitaliy,

    I know that the firmware has been decrypted , but I got the impression that Simeon and the others were a long ways off from locating which line or lines of code were associated with such things as could be useful in the D7000 such as increases in bitrates , live histograms and other video centric features. I am more than glad to be mistaken.
  • >due to the fact that they are still trying to understand the encrypted firmware coding, which is appears to be very difficult.

    Your words sounds strange.
    Firmware is fully decrypted, tool is present to put back all changes and flash even.
    SO, now it is disassembly stage and to make it we need to fix few things and make FR Processor model running in IDA 5.0 Free.
