The Nvidia chip inside Tesla's autopilot has a hidden bootloader disabled by fuses before the car ships. Researchers glitched the power rail at exactly the right moment to re-enable it. Full code execution >> Highest privileges >> All firmware decrypted >> Decryption keys extracted. The car that's supposed to drive itself(FSD) had a manufacturer backdoor baked into the silicon. Disabled by a fuse and defeated by a voltage spike.

So I wanted to do something fun, so I built a custom ESP32 bootloader lol. Basically, I grabbed the ESP-IDF framework, wrote the bootloader code in C inside a @Docker container, and shifted the partition table offset to 0x9000 to avoid sector collisions. To test it, I made two firmware versions. Version 1 (slow blink) went directly onto App Slot A (0x10000), and Version 2 (rapid blink) was hosted on my headless Debian server. When V1 boots up, it connects to my wifi, hits the server, streams down the update blocks, and tells the bootloader to flip the active pointer to Slot B (0x1F0000). On reset, the bootloader cleanly jumps to the new slot, and instant V2 upgrade. So frikin coool. #embeddedsoftwareengineering #bootloader #coolstuff #espidf #esp32 #docker

war schon vorher linux main, ich hab jetzt nur den tumor (windows ssd) aus meinem pc entfernt weil windows schon wieder mein bootloader gefickt hat 🚬

Try replicating an Operating System like Windows Coding a bootloader Kernel Device Drivers Etc You need to kbow assembly and hardware. 5 years of nonstop work with AI model and it wont be anything like Windows

any phone where you can unlock the bootloader and flash a custom rom is fine

日本那些合约机bootloader给你锁的死死的，没那么好root。但是第三方软件倒是真的有，随便装个谷歌相机就没快门声儿了

That's a valid solution but the bootloader isn't compromised with Graphene and you can install Google play services so they mostly work now

The 'prompt engineer' is just the human version of a bootloader. Once the system starts, you don't need the bootloader anymore.

ENTÃO vc tá me dizendo que a bios lê os primeiros 512 bytes da ram puxados da memória principal num endereço específico e que é dependente da implementação física no bootloader???? e se esse troço não tiver especificação eu tenho q fazer engenharia reversa nos componentes ????

I wouldn't mind of it could rip @Verizon's bootloader wide open so we can install LineageOS after they decide to end support. Sick of their locked out OS bullshit. They make every excuse as to why you can't unlock the bootloader except the real reason. Uninstall their shitware.
