As soon as I saw this I was amazed. It looks so cool! If you haven’t heard of the iPod wizard software, it allows you to change certain parts of the iPod firmware. Such as replacing the heading text to display anything you want. E.g. instead of ‘iPod’ display’Balazs iPod’. I have heard of this before but I have never tried it because I was afraid it would bugger up my iPod. I want to get a iPod w/ video but i really don’t have the money to fund it, and as I currently have a working iPod it is pretty stupid to ask it as a present. Anyway for Christmas I want a 360. It would be good to have a 5G iPod but I won’t die without it. Continuing with the story, this guy has used the iPod wizard software and the Apple iPod updater software to get into his nano and add cool icons next to the menu labels. It looks really cool!! If I had a nano I would so want to try it out as this is even cooler than the other hacks done using iPod wizard.
Make Magazine have an article about a similar sort of hack with iPod wizard, so you can read it here for more indepth knowledge before (if) you start.
NOTE: If you ruin your iPod don’t come crying to me, you are to blame if your nano becomes a paper weight (if it is that heavy at all).
im trying it now if it f***s up U pay me $300
Did you not see the disclamer?
I just did this and it works. I can now use my Nano as a cell phone, a TV remote, and a keyless entry remote starter for my car.
