Questionforyou Posted June 15 Share Posted June 15 Will the O. MG Cable allow you to see the smartphone access PIN code for an Android smartphone? Or is there some other product available to see a smartphone access PIN code? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DramaKing Posted June 16 Share Posted June 16 (edited) Ah, you newbies. You have big dreams and go straight for the impossible things. Smartphones don't store PIN codes. There's a reason why there's a payload to bruteforce codes. That said, what you will need is two files located at /data/system/, password.key and locksettings.db on Android. To prevent people from doing exactly this, the directory is only readable and writable by root. The user account for the owner would only have permissions for /sdcard or /storage. You will get a string that looks like 1136656D5C6718C1DEFC71B431B2CB5652A8AD550E20BDCF52B00002C8DF35C963B71298. Reassemble the hash and salt as stated here. You can then use Hashcat to crack the PIN/pattern/passphrase using hash mode 5800 for Samsung or the steps described here for others.

DramaKing Posted June 16 Share Posted June 16 In case that's not clear, the phone normally needs to be unlocked for you to do any of this. A custom recovery might give you access, but the storage is encrypted. I keep saying this, but just to be clear, O.MG cables require devices to be unlocked to work. It sends keystrokes, nothing fancier than that. No special exploits to bypass lockscreens (which run around $100k). A Magnet Graykey can unlock phones, but they are NOT commercially available (that would be illegal). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
