Default Kin Twom

I'm sorry if I have yet to catch up on everything, but has there been any hack or update that can make the kin twom better in some way? Can I help with something. Is the topic still alive?

I think were stuck as far as hacking the kin for putting a different o.s. on it.I requested a demo for 'cellebrite physical analyzer' cause it is supposed to be able to dump the file system.If it works then we might be one step closer to getting into it.Will still have to figure out drivers to access the system though.

I wish we could setup some type of bounty for it,to possibly get more people involved to get android on the kin.

Sound to be far enough at least it's getting noticed. So there have been no updates which enhance the kin experience? If theres anything I can do let me know.

We have had many good discoveries and have many tools exporting files to the KIN. We have everything we could need except an area in the software that we can exploit. Im still working on this, but I dont know if anyone else still is.

It turns out that software isn't able to extract the file system from the phone.I looked into it more and you actually need the unit which runs about $500.00 I can handle a lot of other phones,but no real options for the kin unless you get the actual extracting tool.
