Tools... what You need. I was using notepad and calculator all the time actually. Sometimes I need convert or process then I make script for python (with notepad of course). If I look firmware file in text lister (this is from Total Commander and [F3 View] button actually what does all the magic for me) then I look hex numbers and calculate them in all kind of weird ways with windows calculator. Then in Total Commander is compare tool in Files -> Compare by content... this is on images in my previous posts. Then I use some sort of HexEdit because hex data operations are difficult with notepad. I cut and paste to new files some data. All other things for image process or unpack or ... I find on the way with google like 7zip and ffmpeg and for raw image opening and guessing is good to use Gimp and IrfanView. If I stuck on something strange I google for tools to open, process, convert... There is no standard frmware hacking tool (other than notepad and calculator). If there is something, they are for some standard files. But anybody try to avoid these standards to keep us away : ) |

That's interesting. I guess maybe they had their build environment setup for some other product/device. Then just changed that environment for the scopes? Oh would it be so nice to have the firmware source in GITHub. I guess we can only dream. |

Rarely do I need to break out the C compiler. I use Regular Expressions a lot. binwalk is very useful for quickly identifying files within files. A hex editor, paper, pencil and a calculator with base-n. |
