iPod Touch Mod, check it out...


Recommended Posts

The whole thing but not the Screen? Guessing thats asking too much?

The front is glass, obvious you would not want that coated as you would not be able to use your iPod. The plastic bits would melt. The back can survive 350 degress because it is stainless steel.

Are you the guy from Dragon's Den?

No, he does gold plating. This is far more high tech.

reminded me of this guy

he plated his iPhone with TiAlN. looks damn sexy, too :p

Yes, he does the bezel and the logo on the back with TiAlN. The back cover itself it s black anodized after market part. I will be offering iPhone bezels too soon, but they are a bit difficult to fit so not sure how popular they would be.

A site specific discount would depend on the volume of sales. if I could shift 1000 units here I could go to $50 shipped for black or gold.

problem is i have no idea what the "Opening Tool " looks like or is gotten from. why would be good if included the tool ( like the Replacement Case's for the 360 included all the tools needed )

It's very simple. Use the opening tool to remove the existing back. Remove 2 screws in to take off antenna cover and transplant to new caseback, Remove 2 screws to take off antenna interface and move to new back cover. Then just push it into place until all the clips lock.

Well sir, if its not overly complicated to do, you can put me down for an order. I'd probably go for the black over the gold, but can't decide until I see it. But I'm interested in one either way. I can't stand how apples metal back scratches so badly.

Btw, got any shots of them actually on an ipod? I'm curious how the finished product looks.

No shots on iPod at the moment as I sold my touch with one of the gold backs on to a friend. Am holding off buying another in case they bring a 64gb out in the next few weeks.

Think you could ask your friend to take a few pictures? and I can't blame you I got my 16GB a month before they released the 32. Btw, I'm going to be picking up the next generation iPhone, assuming the back isn't plastic think you might do one for those?

Because the backs on the iphones are anodised aluminium they cannot be pvd treated. I would have to get custom backs made in stainless

This would probably go on eBay for quite a bit.

I actually sold one on Ebay and the results were very poor. I'm actually having trouble giving them away, nevermind selling the damn things. I did think they would be very popular, but it's all been a bit of a disaster.

    • Anthropic pulls Fable 5 and Mythos 5 after US export control order by Pradeep Viswanathan In April this year, Anthropic launched the Claude Mythos Preview frontier model with state-of-the-art cyber and coding capabilities for a select set of companies around the world. After preparing appropriate guardrails, early this week, Anthropic launched Claude Fable 5 and Mythos 5, its most capable AI models. Claude Fable 5 is for general users and comes with strict safeguards, while Mythos 5 is designed with fewer safeguards for cybersecurity and biology use cases. Today, Anthropic abruptly suspended access to its Fable 5 and Mythos 5 AI models for all customers after receiving an export control directive from the US government. The company received the directive from the government today at 5:21 p.m. ET, and the received letter did not provide any details regarding the national security concern. Anthropic understands that the government became aware of a method to bypass, or “jailbreak,” Fable 5, which might be the reason behind the directive. The order was issued under national security authorities and requires the company to suspend all access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 by any foreign national, whether they are inside or outside the United States. The restriction also applies to foreign national employees working at Anthropic. As a result, the company has disabled both models for all customers to ensure compliance. Access to previous Anthropic models like Opus and Sonnet is not affected by this government order. The company highlighted that it had developed strong safeguards to reduce the possibility that Fable is misused for tasks related to cybersecurity. In fact, many developers are complaining that the safeguards are going overboard. Additionally, the company worked with the US government, the UK AISI, multiple private third-party organizations, and internal teams to red-team Fable’s safeguards for thousands of hours. Finally, Anthropic noted that no testers have yet been able to find a universal jailbreak on Fable 5. As expected, Anthropic disagrees that a narrow potential jailbreak should lead to the recall of a commercial model used by hundreds of millions of people. It warned that applying this standard across the AI industry could effectively halt new frontier model deployments. Anthropic concluded by mentioning that it is working to restore access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 as soon as possible and plans to share more details within the next 24 hours.

    • Not sure what country you’re in but in many countries you can absolutely jail the sellers behind businesses… in fact I’d say in most countries you can do that
    • I guess we are done since you refuse to read my comment you replied to or my other comment in another thread you were also a part of here.
