So, the new uconnect update allowed for insight into the new 8.4 systems. Seems they are an embedded linux based (shocker) and has access to a lot of stuff. I was actually surprised that the upgrade wasn't encrypted in some form.
Things I found that were of interest:
SQLite3 databases containing siriusxm data for weather, traffic, fuel, ect
Splash screens for Ferrari, Lancia, Jeep, Dodge, ect.
Screen Calibration info. Makes me think there is a way to get into service/setup mode somehow.
There are files for an anti-theft keypad screen... Might turn out to be something like the Chevy concierge mode that locks out the phone book.
There is a REALLY strange video set to "Evanescence - My Immortal" with a bunch of accidents. Says Streetracing.ru and "Speeding. No one thinkgs big of you."
UI seems to be mostly on standard web platform with HTML, Flash, ect.
Leg work is being done via Lua and shell scripts.
SiLabs seems to be the partner for stereo tuner.
Seems some of the packages used are shared with Toyota's embedded OS.
Sierra Wireless devices used for the 3g connectivity
Partnership with airbiquity.com
I hope to get a stereo (once they are available) for testing. I think there is a lot of room for modding once root'd. I also fear, there is a lot of room for exploitation. Might lead to a cool blackhat talk...
Anyone else find anything else cool?
PS - cool Jeep and SRT files attached. Plus that strange video...
