iPod "Do Not Disconnect" picture hack

For PC only. You access the firmware and modify it from there!

There is even a Quicktime clip.

Who will do this for a Mac?

It isn't a "Do not disconnect" hack. It is a hack to replace ALL the images in iPod firmware.

"Update"

It appears that Graphic Converter can read these files.

I have not read that thread yet, but it sounds interesting..

Here is command-line tutorial.

Another update, for those interested. A small little app that could change images.

It did not work for me so far (with OS 10.3.7) but it did for others with the same configuration.


Here it is http://www.podite.com/munity/index.php
