Re: A Kick in the Nuts

not really. Like I said before, if you have deep pockets you could probably clone the phone. By cloning I mean forensically clone the NAND, hardware - make a duplicate. You can then use the duplicate to brute force, clone back, brute force, clone back etc. When you have the code use it on the original.

You wouldn't need a "hack" and can use it on future devices. You would need intimate knowledge of the workings of course.
