Firmware Manager page

Hi there! I noticed that you created a program to help facilitate decrypting firmware files. While all of us encourage contributions, we have had issues with an influx of GUI wrappers (specifically VFDecrypt GUIs) in the past. In addition, as the creator of the program, I think it would be best for an unsolicited person to add your program — otherwise, it looks a little like you're trying to use The iPhone Wiki as a billboard to advertise on. (Listings on the Main Page are also reserved for software with a unique function and a significant number of users.) As such, I made the decision to delete your page from the wiki, as this appeared to conflict with section 3.8 of the Ground rules. If you have any questions about my decision, feel free to respond to this message. --Dialexio (talk) 03:33, 12 October 2015 (UTC)

-M'kay. Can I publish it as a page if I don't list it to main page? It has 3192 users. --The preceding unsigned comment was added by GeoSn0w (talk) 12:23, October 24, 2015‎ (UTC). Please consult this page for more info on how to sign pages, and how to fix this.
That's an oddly specific number. (If it's a download count, do keep in mind one person might download it multiple times... but I digress.) I suppose that it's fine, considering the feature set and amount of users it has. I'll undelete the page so you don't have to recreate it from scratch. --Dialexio (talk) 00:57, 25 October 2015 (UTC)
MM'kay, thanks You can rest asure the app will be updated with more and more features so that will be useful for all users. Have a great day and thanks for recovering the page.

Firmware Manager Source Code

I wish to inform you that as your app uses xpwn applications (specifically xpwntool and hfs), the GNU General Public License requires you to release your source code under the GNU GPL v3. --5urd (talk) 22:12, 3 November 2015 (UTC)

For sure, may I create a Github repo for it? --The preceding unsigned comment was added by GeoSn0w (talk). Please consult this page for more info on how to sign pages, and how to fix this.
A GitHub repo with the source code is fine— it's disclosing the source code, after all. Please address this issue promptly, though— otherwise, I will delete the page once again by the end of the month. (libimobiledevice is also licensed under the similar GNU GPL v2.) --Dialexio (talk) 19:21, 28 November 2015 (UTC)
Git REPO for GPL v3 version (not including my graphical design and icons) is available on https://github.com/GeoSn0w/Firmware-Manager-GPLv3 --The preceding unsigned comment was added by GeoSn0w (talk) 19:24, November 29, 2015‎ (UTC). Please consult this page for more info on how to sign pages, and how to fix this.
I see that you made a GitHub repo, but I do not see any of the required source code in it. --Dialexio (talk) 23:10, 29 November 2015 (UTC)
Pay more attention. Check this one https://github.com/GeoSn0w/Firmware-Manager-GPLv3/blob/master/StartSmart.vb
It's from the same repo (StartSmart is the main form). --The preceding unsigned comment was added by GeoSn0w (talk) 12:44, November 30, 2015 (UTC). Please consult this page for more info on how to sign pages, and how to fix this.
There is no source code for any of the components from XPwn or libimobiledevice that you used. Heck, "xpwn" appears exactly once in that file, and it's only a reference to xpwntool.exe (which isn't even provided in the repo).
On an unrelated note, please add your signature to future talk page entries— you can do this by either typing --~~~~, or clicking the second-to-last button in the editing toolbar (next to the horizontal line). --Dialexio (talk) 16:59, 30 November 2015 (UTC)

Sorry to say, but I have to teach you VB.NET. Let's roll. The source code for example has this:

Private Sub Button12_Click(sender As Object, e As EventArgs)

       Dim psi As ProcessStartInfo
                       Dim pat1 As String = Application.StartupPath
                       Dim procname = pat1 + "/Data/xpwntool.exe"
                       Dim filename = TextBox9.Text
                       Dim newfile = TextBox7.Text
                       Dim kapa = "-k"
                       Dim iv = TextBox10.Text
                       Dim ivname = "-iv"
                       Dim key = TextBox8.Text
                       Dim args = String.Format(" {0} {1} {2} {3} {4} {5}", filename, newfile, kapa, key, ivname, iv)
                       psi = New ProcessStartInfo(procname, args)
                       Dim proc As New Process()
                       proc.StartInfo = psi
                       proc.Start()
   End Sub

In this code, is the actual part where I call xpwntool with some parameters. Dim procname = pat1 + "/Data/xpwntool.exe" will call the app from Data folder, and

Dim args = String.Format(" {0} {1} {2} {3} {4} {5}", filename, newfile, kapa, key, ivname, iv) are parameters to be passed (from textboxes and radiobuttons of the gui).

proc.start will launch the app xpwntool from App's Data folder and will pass the parameters to it as it is a CLI.

The same for libi where code is:

Private Sub Button21_Click(sender As Object, e As EventArgs)


       Dim psi2 As ProcessStartInfo
                   Dim proc As New Process()
                   Dim process3 = pat1 + "/Data/idevicerestore.exe"
                   Dim udid = udidval.Text
                   Dim ipswname1 = ipswname.Text
                   Dim param1 = param.Text
                   Dim finalpatch = TextBox16.Text
                   Dim args3 = String.Format("{0}{1} {2} {3}", parameter1, udid, param1, ipswname1)
                   psi2 = New ProcessStartInfo(process3, args3)
                   proc.StartInfo = psi2
                   proc.Start()
                   proc.WaitForExit()
                   If proc.HasExited = True Then
           MsgBox("Finish Message", MsgBoxStyle.Information)
       End If
   End Sub

The code is pasted here from https://github.com/GeoSn0w/Firmware-Manager-GPLv3/blob/master/StartSmart.vb If you don't know Vb.NET please let someone you trust and knows to analyze the source.
