Marosell: /* 3rd Party Apple TV iOS Software */

This is the Apple TV 2G.

==Introduction==
The second-generation Apple TV, a digital media receiver made and sold by Apple Inc., was unveiled during an Apple press conference on September 1, 2010. It is a small form factor network appliance designed to play digital content originating from the iTunes Store, Netflix, YouTube, Flickr, MobileMe or any Mac OS X or Windows computer running iTunes onto an enhanced-definition or high-definition widescreen television, and will accept music, video and photo streams from other iOS devices using Airplay in 4.2. It sold 250,000 in it's first two weeks available.

== Application Processor ==
It uses the [[S5L8930]] [[application processor]].

== Specifications ==
'''Size''': 23 mm (0.9 inches) (h), 98 mm (3.9 inches) (w), 98 mm (3.9 inches) (d) 
'''Weight''': 0.6 pounds 
'''I/O''': HDMI, Optical audio, 10/100 Mbps Ethernet, IR receiver, Micro-USB port 
'''Storage Capacity''': 8 Gigabytes (Not directly usable)

*Samsung K9LCG08U1M 8GB NAND Flash chip
*256 MB RAM
*Apple 343S0479 1005 005BB
*M430 F2350 TI E03K C0GP G4
*SMSC 8710A-EZK B1023-A2 (10/100 Ethernet Transceiver)
*TXC MUGT 27.000
*TXCPCUM3 50.000
*Apple 338S0891

The Apple TV uses the dual-band [[BCM4329]] for Wi-Fi communications; it supports 802.11 a/b/g/n on both frequencies (2.4 GHz and 5 GHz).

== Packaged iOS Software ==
Lowtide is the application running on the AppleTV. It is essentially an updated "FrontRow" system that handles all user interaction, video playback, streaming, etc. It has been shown to run on other iOS hardware such as the iPod Touch.

== Dock Connector ==
The Apple TV 2G has [http://guide-images.ifixit.net/igi/GyAEfCsoVVLJD3a5.medium a predetermined spot that is apparently for a 30-pin dock connector]. This is most probably here for Apple's in-house developer units.

The default Apple TV hardware does not allow you to use the HDMI port and the micro-USB port at the same time. Adding a dock to the spot will bypass this hardware restriction, allowing both hacking and viewing.

Soldering to the dock terminals on pins 2 and 3 failed to get analog audio out. It is not know if this is because of a hardware or software limitation. Sound was able to be produced out of the HDMI port but no sound came out of the dock pins corresponding to audio out on other iOS devices.

== Jailbreak Status ==
'''[[PwnageTool]] 4.1.2''' uses the limera1n exploit to jailbreak as well as auto-install Cydia, SSH and afc2.

Currently, Cydia's Graphical User Interface has not been ported to the Backrow Frappliance model, however the Command Line tools such as 'apt-get' are fully intact and functional.

As all iOS-devices are concerned, SSH exposes full access to your devices. As such, it is important to make sure that you change your root password ('alpine') as soon as possible.

Currently, the vast majority of GUI Applications provided by Cydia will not run on the AppleTV due to missing libraries and lacking a launcher. Several developers have committed to updating their Applications to run on the AppleTV and make use of the Remote as a valid Input Device.

Tests show that Applications that support a hardware keyboard (Bluetooth or the iPad Dock) can make use of the Apple IR Remote.

'''Greenp0ison''' also makes use of the limera1n exploit. RC5 is being prepared to have Apple TV support. Preview screenshots have been posted by [[Chronic Dev (team)|Chronic Dev]] showing altered menus and a software injector. [http://yfrog.com/bbxdmj]

''Older Developments'':

*'''SHAtter''': [[User:pod2g|pod2g]]'s SHAtter exploit has been showcased by [[User:MuscleNerd|MuscleNerd]] and [[User:posixninja|posixninja]] as capable of jailbreaking the Apple TV 2G, but this exploit will not be released for a while due to the release of limera1n's exploit. It is mentioned here mainly for posterity.

*'''[[limera1n]]''': [[User:geohot|geohot]] released the limera1n exploit which is capable of jailbreaking the AppleTV, but as of right now it doesn't install AFC2 or SSH so it is of little practical use for any average Apple TV user, or even most Apple TV seasoned hackers.

Marosell: /* Jailbreak Status */

Known formally as the Apple TV 2.

==Introduction==

The second-generation Apple TV, a digital media receiver made and sold by Apple Inc., was unveiled during an Apple press conference on September 1, 2010. It is a small form factor network appliance designed to play digital content originating from the iTunes Store, Netflix, YouTube, Flickr, MobileMe or any Mac OS X or Windows computer running iTunes onto an enhanced-definition or high-definition widescreen television, and will except music, video and photo streams from other iOS devices using Airplay in 4.2. The second generation sold 250,000 in it's first two weeks available.

== Application Processor ==
It uses the [[S5L8930]] [[application processor]].

==Wireless==
The Apple TV uses the dual-band [[BCM4329]] for Wi-Fi communications; it supports 802.11 a/b/g/n on both frequencies (2.4 GHz and 5 GHz).

==Other Hardware==
*Samsung K9LCG08U1M 8GB NAND Flash chip
*256 MB RAM
*Apple 343S0479 1005 005BB
*M430 F2350 TI E03K C0GP G4
*SMSC 8710A-EZK B1023-A2 (10/100 Ethernet Transceiver)
*TXC MUGT 27.000
*TXCPCUM3 50.000
*Apple 338S0891

== Packaged iOS Software ==

Lowtide is the application running on the AppleTV. It is essentially an updated "FrontRow" system that handles all user interaction, video playback, streaming, etc. It has been shown to run on other iOS hardware such as the iPod Touch.

== Dock Connector ==
The AppleTV 2 has a predetermined spot on the logic board for an Apple Dock Connector. This is most probably here for Apple's in-house developer units.

The default Apple TV hardware does not allow you to use the HDMI port and the micro-USB port at the same time. Adding an iPod dock to the side of the enclosure will bypass this hardware restriction, allowing both hacking and viewing.

An image of the dock connector spot can be seen in a teardown by iFixit:
*[http://guide-images.ifixit.net/igi/GyAEfCsoVVLJD3a5.medium Dock Connector Location]

Here is a link to some female dock connector parts:
*[http://www.sparkfun.com/commerce/product_info.php?products_id=8035iPod Dock Female]

Soldering to the dock terminals on pins 2 and 3 failed to get analog audio out. It is not know if this is because of a hardware or software limitation. Sound was able to be produced out of the HDMI port but no sound came out of the dock pins corresponding to audio out on other iOS devices.

== Specifications ==
'''Size''': 23 mm (0.9 inches) (h), 98 mm (3.9 inches) (w), 98 mm (3.9 inches) (d) 
'''Weight''': 0.6 pounds 
'''I/O''': HDMI, Optical audio, 10/100 Mbps Ethernet, IR receiver, Micro-USB port 
'''Storage Capacity''': 8 Gigabytes (Not directly usable)

== How to DFU Mode ==

'''Step 1:''' Plugin your Apple TV to computer with microUSB (Power cable connected).

'''Step 2:''' Hold menu + down button together for 6 secs to reboot.

'''Step 3:''' Once your Apple TV reboots immediately hold menu + play together until a message appears in iTunes telling you an Apple TV in recovery mode has been detected.

== Jailbreak Status ==
'''PwnageTool 4.1''' uses the Limera1n exploit to jailbreak and auto-install SSH and afc2. It also installs parts of Cydia (like apt-get), but a Cydia GUI remains to be developed and deployed. The assumption is that your home network is secure, but it is recommended that you change your root password anyways, which is "alpine" by default. About all you can do now is command line operations via ssh, until developers enable methods to use remotes.

'''Greenp0ison''' leverages limera1n exploit and RC5 is being prepared to have AppleTV support. Preview screenshots have been posted by the Chronic Dev Team showing altered menus and a software injector. [http://yfrog.com/bbxdmj Preview]

''Older Developments'':

*'''SHAtter Exploit''': pod2g's SHAtter exploit has been showcased by MuscleNerd and posixninja as capable of jailbreaking the AppleTV, but this exploit will be with held for a while due to the release of limera1n's exploit, it is mentioned here mainly for posterity.

*'''Limera1n''': geohot has released the limera1n exploit which is capable of jailbreaking the AppleTV, but as of right now it doesn't install afc2 or ssh so it is of little practical use for any average AppleTV user, or even most AppleTV seasoned hackers. It never mounts or installs anything, ostensibly not making any changes at all to the AppleTV filesystem.

Marosell:

This is the second generation Apple TV. It sports a smaller, black design, and now runs [[iOS]].

== [[Application Processor]] ==
It uses the [[S5L8930]] applications processor.

==Wireless==
The Apple TV uses the dual-band [[BCM4329]] for Wi-Fi communications; it supports 802.11 a/b/g/n on both frequencies (2.4 GHz and 5 GHz).

==Other Hardware==
*Samsung K9LCG08U1M 8GB NAND Flash chip
*256 MB RAM
*Apple 343S0479 1005 005BB
*M430 F2350 TI E03K C0GP G4
*SMSC 8710A-EZK B1023-A2 (10/100 Ethernet Transceiver)
*TXC MUGT 27.000
*TXCPCUM3 50.000
*Apple 338S0891

== Packaged iOS Software ==

Lowtide is the application running on the AppleTV. It is essentially an updated "FrontRow" system that handles all user interaction, video playback, streaming, etc. It has been shown to run on other iOS hardware such as the iPod Touch.

== Dock Connector ==
The AppleTV 2 has a predetermined spot on the logic board for an Apple Dock Connector. This is most probably here for Apple's in-house developer units.

The default Apple TV hardware does not allow you to use the HDMI port and the micro-USB port at the same time. Adding an iPod dock to the side of the enclosure will bypass this hardware restriction, allowing both hacking and viewing.

An image of the dock connector spot can be seen in a teardown by iFixit:

Here is a link to some female dock connector parts:
*[http://www.sparkfun.com/commerce/product_info.php?products_id=8035iPod Dock Female]

Soldering to the dock terminals on pins 2 and 3 failed to get analog audio out. It is not know if this is because of a hardware or software limitation. Sound was able to be produced out of the HDMI port but no sound came out of the dock pins corresponding to audio out on other iOS devices.

== Specifications ==
'''Size''': 23 mm (0.9 inches) (h), 98 mm (3.9 inches) (w), 98 mm (3.9 inches) (d) 
'''Weight''': 0.6 pounds 
'''I/O''': HDMI, Optical audio, 10/100 Mbps Ethernet, IR receiver, Micro-USB port 
'''Storage Capacity''': 8 Gigabytes (Not directly usable)

== How to DFU Mode ==

'''Step 1:''' Plugin your Apple TV to computer with microUSB (Power cable connected).

'''Step 2:''' Hold menu + down button together for 6 secs to reboot.

'''Step 3:''' Once your Apple TV reboots immediately hold menu + play together until a message appears in iTunes telling you an Apple TV in recovery mode has been detected.
