I had no reason to fund the kickstarter for flipper zero other than to be a jackass in small ways to random strangers. Like its nothing too malicious as I dont want to ruin someones day but at the same time is stuff that makes me feel magical.
Yeah, these things sound super cool but I’d absolutely use it like twice and then leave it in a drawer forever
The dolphin will get sad if you forget about it.
It’s handy to be able to clone rfid/nfc cards. But yeah, aside from that occasional use case, I don’t really use it that often. Maybe I’d get more use out of it if I were regularly performing physical pen tests/red team exercises.
Hell yeah this is the cyberpunk bullshit I am on about.
Hacking into people’s brain chip and playing the Internationale
Well, why stop there?

Keanu voice: “I know Third Worldism”
Becoming the hero the world needs and overwriting the entirety of Dennis Prager’s long term memory with goatse.
Good luck remembering your kids or how to multiply fucko, that shit’s all just a few square inches of Kirkjohn’s colon now
Oh man. It’s flipper, it’s a dolphin, because it’s a reference to Jones, the smack-addicted cyborg anti-submarine warfare dolphin in Johnny Mnemonic.
Do other people not use the word flipper for the TV remote control? Like, flip the channel?
no lmao
stares in southern
When I was young “clicker” was common because the tech was so basic that they made a click sound. But I never heard “flipper”.
My dad used to call it a flipper. He’s dead now.
In the upper Midwest a lot of people use the term “clicker” instead. Similar enough idea
Can they make the next revision of this thing octopus themed? Asking for a friend.
I use mine for cloning key fobs when i need work access to a mechanical room after the fob has been returned. Lot of times i need access to a mechanical room or rooftop drains and cant get a copy of a fob. No problem, most of the time. Only run across two i couldnt clone and i think it was operator error.
I also turn off loud tvs with it. And at the machine shop across the way, i like to pop the charging port on the Tesla the owner drives. Im still looking for a gas station with RF signage so i can see if that works.
Flipper is a neat bit of electronics, but its sorta like a swiss army knife - it does lots of things ok but there are better solutions out there.
Please speak more of these better solutions…
Proxmark3/4 and a laptop for 125khz and 13mhz cloning and attacks, HACKRF one (any tx capable SDR that can get into khz range) and gnu radio and whatever custom built antenna you need for whatever frequency youre working.
I could never get those tiny TV-Shut off remotes to work reliably. for reasons of ADHD I despise televisions in public places.
Those things are pretty hit or miss. Fickle, poor quality IR LED, not a very large code base.
The IR database for the Zero is pretty comprehensive. Televisions, stereos, dvd, air conditioners, fans, etc. quite literally everything with a IR LED. It also has the ability to ‘learn’ new remotes that it doesnt have preprogrammed. I have yet to find a TV it cant control.

Texhnically, yes, you can.
However, new fobs use rolling codes. Youll likely get it paired, use it once, then when the code rolls, you end up deauthorizing your fob because it is behind on rolling code. Sometimes itll work for a few uses, if you have multiple keyfobs (it has to do with how the vehicle, Fords in particular, handle the way code is used) but YMMV.
Old school keyfobs work, tho. Garage doors are much the same.
Even new garage doors use rolling codes, for exactly this reason. People could break into houses with a flipper and a little patience.
Cloning a fob that has rolling codes, and then using it to unlock the car, may de-auth the real fob and lock the person out of their car until they pay (sometimes $$$) to get it recoded. So, unless you have actual malicious intent it’s a pretty shit thing to do.
Not really. If you can clone a car keyfob then it’s effectively useless and your car is probably a Kia lmao
Fobs use a rolling code to prevent cloning, among a lot of other techniques.

WTF is a flipper zero
Death to America
It’s a little device that lets you transmit all sorts of radio signals https://flipperzero.one/
Is it easy to get hold of in the US? I’ve been looking at them for a while but I heard its tough to get?
It looks like you can just buy one from their main site https://shop.flipperzero.one/
There was a stock problem at one point, but mine was shipped in a regular amount of over seas shipping time, about a week I think. Shouldn’t be a crazy shortage any more.

It’s a uart interface you can use with your phone as the terminal
I’ve been thinking about snagging a flipper. Figure there’d be some mischief to be had with one. Also would lean nicely into my “really wants to be the main character of a immersive sim” tendencies.
I figure there must still be a few watch-lists I’m not on. Why not complete the set?
can anyone expand on this? what does opening the charging port do, does it stop charging the Tesla
It doesn’t do anything, and I’ve found the range not to be quite so large, it’s just a funny trick to play on parked teslas as you’re going by. They even close themselves after a small while, all chargers emit a small radio signal when you pick up the charger plug and the flipper emulates that, making the Tesla think you’re about to plug it in and open automatically.
It’s basically the door that covers the gas cap on an ICE car, but over-designed.
