Definitely the most practical introductory material I have come across with regards to hardware analysis and communication. Thanks for taking the time to make these videos!
6:21 Tip for other viewers: It also can be only two pins: Rx and Tx, so if you can't find any 3-4 pin connector, check it. Thanks for these amazing videos and good luck!
Extremely useful video, very well explained and entirely possible to follow for a complete novice. Your instructions helped me debrick an expensive device that was destined for the dump otherwise. Thanks a lot for making this.
When you see an older guy teaching you how to hack hardware you know it's straight up solid facts. Thank you for this video. I just figured out my small MIDI keyboard has UART pinouts and I forgot how to identify each one. You saved my bacon.
When I first watched these videos 11 months ago it seemed like some type of wizardry what you was doing. But you really inspired me and I've got a nice electronics lab, lots of good gear. Now I can practice and do this on the many routers I have around the house. IT no longer seems complex, or difficult. Infact, this is fairy simple when compared to hacking phones. Your videos are very good, and your English is excellent. I like your accent you sound like a real old school hacker. Bet you did phreaking ;) Just wanted to say a big thanks man. Please continue to make more videos.
I am new to hardware hacking - explanation was great a lot of technical knowledge and a good teacher. I am going to have to watch a few more times before hands-on. But some good work
Thanks so much for your quality efforts at impacting knowledge. This is an area I'm seriously interested in learning, but I have little or no good knowledge of electronics. Please guide me on what I need to learn to help me understand your tutorials better.
This is fabuloso! Now I know about finding the UART and I am learning to speak Italian as well. I can almost understand every word, it is very much the same as American. It is very easy, I do not know why people go to school!
It seems that the pins are being identified primarily by continuity (GND) and voltage (VCC, TX, RC). What is the point in measuring resistance to GND and VCC?
Thanks for this nice explanation, it is the best tutorial I am able to find. Because I can share it to new collaegues for teaching them, and I learnt some points here and there. Thanks :-)
Really good information exactlywhat i needed i just wish id found it a week ago .better late than never .youre english is great just relax and let it flow you obviously can do everything else .a scale of 1- 10 i give it a 9.7.6 months from now youll be spittin like marshall mathers.....lol.keep up the good work.and thanks again just what i needed.

Thanks for this series. It is great!
Not sure if it was already said but dmesg -w with USB unplugged then plug in and it should reveal the name of the just plugged in device. Great tutorial
Dear Sir, I really liked this video, I have a PCB with a UART interface and want to know if I can use UART to communicate with the IC. It is an AMT630A IC. Do you have any idea about it?
These are very infromative sessions. Just a quick question. From my understating we can only see these print log only if the the devs have used print commands for debug, right? Usually production code won't have any of such debug print commands. In such a case is there any other use case for UART? Please correct me if I am wrong. Thank you.
I really love it. You serie is awesome! I learn much with this. But I can't find JTAG ou UART pinout of some hardwares. Some equipments are not much friendly and I don't know how can I start the search. Can you create videos with some equipments more hardly?
Hello Gater Security, thank you for your question and sorry for the delay in answering. Usually, if a router has support for USB it has the possibility to install a USB connector on the motherboard, if not already installed. It is possible that the processor has support for USB, but if you don't find anything on the motherboard usually (but not always!) means that the router's software doesn't support USB connections. If you have the processor's datasheet and you know that it supports USB you can try to attach a USB device to the related pins but probably this will not be supported by the original firmware.
@@MakeMeHack Thank you for the response, i will look into it, i was asking because i have a tp-link router with OpenWRT(open-source firmware) but it doesnt have a usb port for me to plug a usb camera, thank you so much man , i will do some research on the topic, have a nice day!
I have some nice candidates but the ohm reading I get on the board are absurdly changing if I swap the probes as if I were testing a diode. This is so confusing, what to do in this cases? Thank you so much for this series!
Nice work with the videos! Maybe You can help me out with a problem - I found UART pins and connected with PUTTY all good.. got welcome message and so on as a responce.. console prompts me that type "HELP" for more options but typing that wont do anyting. RX pin on board is 3.3 volts so its not been cut. Any ideas how to proceed? Typin HELP or anythin else no characters appear on the screen but RX light on my FTDI converter flicker evey time I type so that is defenently working.... Thanks
bom video amigo: se o dispositivo embarcado esta com defeito na memoria ram , qual log viria na inicialização ? fazer mais videos como esses . sou brazil. obrigado..
Would you like a new project, I run a Drone repair shop and am having trouble cracking a Mavic 2 Firmware i can send you a board to see if you can get it. any help would be much appreciated im a noob at hacking trying to learn
perche non fai video di piu... Hai 9 video e 24 mila seguaci ...il tuoi video sono molti instruitivi (scusa il mio italiano :D non lo usato per 2 o 3 anni)... dai!
Hello, can you disassemble the methods of connecting to the cpu s7 1200 via UART protocol and identify the password access vulnerability as said in this video ruclips.net/video/ocOEiNp-8K0/видео.html THANKS !

Very helpful video. Thanks
Excellent teacher 👍..now i'm your student
Amazing job man. Thanks a lot!
Hello Karim, thank you for your appreciation and support.
Not sure if it was already said but dmesg -w with USB unplugged then plug in and it should reveal the name of the just plugged in device.
Great tutorial
Very technical and to the point

I found this very interesting really, from Lesotho
Thank you so much. I love your videos!
Thank you for data. Learned lots of things :D
Great tutorial.

Niceee !!!! You my friend now!
thanks a lot ..great work
Is there any way to add a USB port or to solder a USB device directly on the motheboard of a router that doesnt have a usb port, for example?
Hello Gater Security, thank you for your question and sorry for the delay in answering. Usually, if a router has support for USB it has the possibility to install a USB connector on the motherboard, if not already installed. It is possible that the processor has support for USB, but if you don't find anything on the motherboard usually (but not always!) means that the router's software doesn't support USB connections.

I love how auto subtitles refer to serial console as "savior console"
What can you teach about hacking firmware to bring ssh and many other functions stripped by ISP provider? Grazie mile.
Great info
Greate video, however it's kinda hard to understand.
Gonna watch the video over and over again.
@8:49 ho fatto male a commentare il video sulla JTAG prima di aver visto questo, ma la domanda rimane la stessa.
Molto bene! bel video
Owesome video
Good very good thinks
@Viewers: Also you are at luck, if it's not a BGA and is a QFP package. Just pull the datasheet from the internet and trace the UART pins on the SoC.
Has anyone used device solutions Tahoe rev b? board?

By the way I bet that the "friendly neighbour" has been inspired by l'amichevole chimico di quartiere Bressanini 😉
pizza, ceasar, parmagianno. yes i too can speak Italian
l’orgoglio italiano !

I love how he says "ardware acking"
Not impossible with X-Ray machine. :-)
