 7 pin tubular locks - The type of Lock that is on all kinds of equipment, such as vending and soda machines, payphones, car/bike locks, and other equipment that we consider important to protect, is a very flawed product.
You all may remember that older Kryptonite bicycle locks can be opened with with the cap from a plastic pen. The attack works on what locksmiths call the "impressioning" principle. Tubular locks are especially vulnerable to this because all the pins are exposed, and tools that require little skill to use can be relatively unsophisticated.
These locks operate in the "Security through obscurity" principle meaning that the security of these locks is based on the fact that most people don't have access to a pick that can operate around its pins which are positioned all the way around the circumference of the cylinder plug. This makes them much harder to pick. Unless you have the right pick.

 The LG VX4400 phone is a pretty versatile phone, in the following article we will be discussing some hacks that you can do to make the most out of this particular phone. A lot of the tricks that we will be discussing can be used on other phones as well -- They may not work exactly as described, but with a little hacking around you can probably figure out how to do it. After reading this article you should be able to: 1) Backup and edit phone data such as address book, calendar, etc. on PC
2) Add your own ring tones and make custom ring tones out of any mp3
3) Use custom wallpapers
4) Remove Verizon Wireless Banner
5) Free Web Browsing (still uses minutes)
6) Use the phone as a modem |

Have you ever been sitting on the pot and wished that you could be checking up on your downloads or maybe even to see if your friend
wrote you back. Well wait no more, now you can use your PSP to
access your computer completely wirelessly. |

A user over at broadband reports has figured out a way to unlock his Linksys "Vonage" PAP2 unit to work with other vendors... Like free services from fringe vendors.
These units are basically ATA's. That is, it has two RJ11s you hook regular
phones to, and a RJ45 that goes to your network. It takes your "regular phones" and turns it into a VoIP phone. |

 I was recently contacted by Chris Connors of
Duxbury HighSchool (Duxbury, MA) in regards to a contest that he was holding for his students. Chris teaches TechnologyEducation at this highschool and decided he would hold a contest to see which of his students could come up with the best hack, he called it HackContest05. He asked if I would be interested in judging the contest along with a few others. The students would be able to submit their hacks to an online site, Duxtech, for others to see. I of course accepted, as I find this as a very interesting topic... A school SUPPORTING Hacking? Are the times changing?
I was able to get an interview with Chris about this contest, and I hope that other highschools may follow his lead. Chris's progressive thinking has shown that the word "hack" may be losing its negative connotations. If you are in highschool, know someone who is, or know any school teachers/administrators I suggest you forward them this interview. I personally look forward to a day were all highschools allow their students to (sorry for the cliche) think outside of the box and create inventive solutions to problems they face in their everyday lives.
If you are a student at Duxbury, and you are looking for a project to submit to HackContest05 let me give you this piece of advice:
Find an everyday problem or annoyance that you have. Then look for a solution. Honestly it is that easy. As John Lennon put it, "There are no problems, only solutions"

Pretty much all of the recently released "handheld" electronics these days whether it be an MP3 Player, Digital Camera, or Personal Game machine can be charged via USB. I-Hacked reader steveg shows us how to create a DIY USB charger using a old AC Wall-Wort. You will notice in the article that he is working with a Australian plug-in, but the process applies to the US as well. (Among most other places)
