Does someone know how to hack a generic Chinese mobile phone with 2 sims? One sim is cool but the second hasn't got the right IMEI so I can't use it. Couldn't find the tool to hack the phone and get it right. Can someone help please? Got here by accident. Does someone know how to hack a generic Chinese mobile phone with 2 sims?

All you need is some KNO3 and suger (I use sobatol)and there you go.

I had a couple of old kyocera phones and my friend had a new one which he had dropped a bowling ball on, so I simply swapped the screens and all was good, they used the same screen.

I'm trying to get it to source power, so you can, say, recharge a cellphone in an emergency. I've got a few other hacks planned, but I like the USB recharge idea.

I have been shocked by similar ones (the flash unit out of disposible cameras have plenty of uses) quite a few times. Worse thing that happened from it was a light electrical burn that went away in a day. Unless the person who is getting shocked has a pacemaker or something similar i doubt it could cause any kind of serious harm. If it was one out of a microwave or something then I would get worried.

If anything, I would be more worried about the people who just realized that the alarm-gizmo is the perfect detonator for their homebrew explosives.

A high voltage electrolytic capacitor can deliver dangerous amounts of current when used like this (the sparks aren't the kind a stungun makes). By all means blow stuff up with this (low value resistors make an impressive bang - wear goggles)but dont go poking people with it, I dont think this guy has any idea how dangerous this is.<br>I will happily discharge stun guns into my arm as they produce harmless levels of current, but no way I would do the same with a 2-300V 300uF capacitor.<br> I have built a few stunguns and electric shock devices, but none as dangerous as this (clock and other shockers on his site).
