Yiphone and ihazsupper.com explain...

[mackid16]

im really confused between yiphone.org and ihazsupper.com i know that they have something to do with jailbreaking but why are their 2, and Yiphone looks exactly like Ziphone... what is this?

YiPhone is the release of the DevTeam code that geohot got a hold of. He threatened to release it today if the DevTeam didn't release Pwnage before then.

Yesterday the DevTeam put up ihazsupper. Many of us think it's about their impending release of Pwnage 2.0 today, others think it's merely a joke at geohot's expense. We'll see by 4 PM UTC as that's the time many people have determined the timer will stop counting up to.

Actually I'd like to point out that yiphone counter is not going to stop, it will go negative and continue forever.
The dev-team counter is the example of what will happen : it keeps subtracting a bigger number to a smaller number thus never reaching zero.
If you look at the source code of the page the two functins are identical the dev-team one just as a "end" variable wich is much smaller.
here are the two funcitons:

yiphone.org

var end=2*2*2*2*2*3*3*42227*100000;

function crazysub() {
var mydate=new Date();
document.getElementById("ccounter").innerHTML="" + (end-mydate.valueOf());
setTimeout(crazysub,87);

ihazsupper.com:

var end=2*2*2*2*2*3*3*42227*11;

function crazysub() {
var mydate=new Date();
document.getElementById("ccounter").innerHTML="" + (end-mydate.valueOf());
setTimeout(crazysub,87);

Reguarding Yiphone.com

Hi All,

As said before, that code is a javascript timestamp. The javascript for ihazsupper.com seems to be broken. But if you go to yiphone.org, the only reason it does not seem broken is because you cannot read the numbers.

A good site to explain javascript time codes to begin with [rul]http://www.esqsoft.com/javascript_examples/date-to-epoch.htm[/url]


Now for the interesting part. Unless I am missing something, the ihazsupper countdown should have stopped back in 1970 (if computers were even around). and if i remember right, javascipt has issues dealing with numbers before that. They probably set this up as a mockery.

The yiphone.org site on the otherhand uses the same exact code. All the way down to the function. So someone copied someone else. Geohot's page says it should have been released July 15, 10:00AM (time GMT-6).

So maybe we will see a yiphone release today, otherwise a pwnage release.


Thanks for reading this!

i don't see numbers counting down on yiphone.org; i see changing symbols.

Click view on the toolbar and hit source. There is a javascript function that changes the numbers into the symbols. I'll see if i can decode it and post back.

To clear things up. Geohot had the symbols count down in Webdings. A font that uses random symbols for letters/numbers/symbols and such.

There is a firefox addon called firebug. What this allows you to do is locally edit HTML/Javascript from someone elses webpage. It saves a copy locally, then shows you that page. yiphone.org is also a negative number, just alot smaller than ihazsupper.com. If the code is working correctly, it should have gone off about 3 hours ago.

Here is the screenshot without webdings. Just in your basic font.
