BOINC Project for bruteforcing Milestone's RSA Keys (This time for real!)

it's perfectly accessible atm, there might be some provider problem at your (or even my) side. you can try accessing the page through something like TOR, you need minimal traffic for this project (a work unit file is <1KB, a result file is exactly 1 byte) the only bigger thing is the worker you have to download once, ~~1MB for windows, ~~2MB for linux.

Downloaded and joined the project! Quad core

Edit: Downloading the 64-bit version: Can't put a link down here (need 8posts), you can find the other versions under download_all.php

and have to wait a few more minutes before i can post

pontomedon · Dec 23, 2010

you get the 64 bit version of the worker automatically if you're on a 64 bit system, even if you have the 32 bit boinc client, just check the log or your project folder for the filename

Hmm, the first install was in the Program Files(x86) folder, now it's in the normal Program Files folder..

But the important thing is that it works fine now, even if it already worked before

Modern gpu have 64up or cores...May provide above 500Mflops of performence...
gpu support indeed

Let's hope!

I think it maybe a good idea to get ahold of these people and agree on what key should be forced;

I recommend everyone looks at this;

my english isnt good

is it about unlocking bootloader ?!

can i join ?

i have a vaio core i5 windows 64bit

i want to help if someone can explain me with easy words

kawaisaki · Dec 23, 2010

I'm in too !

Yes

- Go on the website of the project (first message of this thread)
- On the website, look for the "preconfigured installer for windows"
- Install it, and run the program as long as you can

23-Dec-2010 23:25:42 [MilestoneRSA] Message from server: This project doesn't support computers of type x86_64-pc-freebsd

erf, plz support freebsd

i have 3 or 4 computers

hanslast · Dec 24, 2010

I'm almost @ 100% on both projects, what happends next?

Dyonas · Dec 24, 2010

After seeing the bull**** that Motofuckers pulled this week I'm more than happy to throw my computer at this project. It isn't exactly high spec. now but it's another few cores and I tend to leave at least one computer on most of the day.

bfdream · Dec 24, 2010

very good, I join it with my laptop

i guess you already found out, you only finished two work units, there is an almost infinite supply of more ;-)

@freebsd: i've never even seen freebsd, let alone compiled on it... but i'll have a look at it. but i'm sure as soon as i find the time to publish the source code, there will be some people to help me port it even to the most exotic platform ;-).

CaFFeiNe666 · Dec 24, 2010

uif i don't get wrong, boinc would support opencl too.... cause if i remember well, it was possible to use ATI vgas too...

is it possible that cuda doesn't have big integers libraries?

don't they use them for molecular calculation etc?
and isn'tthere a way to partial insert it, for example, making it analize for example the original number divided in 3 smaller numbers? the much more parallelized work would be better than performance gap made by it...

would be also good to make this project visible all around android forums (users are fragmented), and general hardware forum where there are boinc communities... also on motorola europe facebook page...

i think it would not be illegal
don't think it's illegale to crack my hardware... if i want i can trash it... so i can also open it...

pontomedon · Dec 24, 2010

of course you can have big integer support on gpus, but i guess it would be easier to write the needed functions from scratch (i only need division with remainder and addition) than to port one of the libraries as whole.
I'm planning to do as many ports as possible, but it'll take a little while.. i concentrated on the two major platforms to make the project available as soon as possible.

p.s. imho its not illegal in europe, it might conflict with the dmca in the us, because i think it prohibits "the circumvention of an active copy protection mechanism" or something like that. but i'm no lawyer, so i could be completely wrong on that ;-)

Very important questions:

Does this use up internet heavily?
Does this push the system (processor etc) to the limit?
Can it run in the background like an antivirus software?

Very important question:

If we do crack the system and obtain the codes/means, can they be recycled for the other devices like the Droid X, Droid2, Droid2 WorldEdition and Milestone2?
(If so, you could gain much much more support than just Milestone owners and increase your chances of cracking this nightmare).

No, about 1KB of data per work unit.

ekin said:

Yes, but you can tell the boinc client it should only use X% of your cpu time (default is 100) or only run if you're away from the computer.

ekin said:

Yes, on windows, if you close the Boinc Manager with the X button, it will stay in your task tray and continue calculating based on your preferences. you can even exit the manager (right click on the task tray icon -> exit) and keep the client running (the manager asks if it should "continue to run science apps if the manager is closed", just tell it to do that).

i think different phones use different keys (would be stupid of Motorola not to do so), so a cracked Milestone key would be of no use an a different phone. but i haven't checked, so i could be wrong.

i can help you, the code is very similar to linux without linuxisme
