Openfeint Achievement Hacking!
************
You hold yourself accountable for your own actions, don't blame me if you get reset or banned from Open-feint.
First, you will need a jail-broken device, iphone, iPod or ipad. I also recommend installing UDID Faker on your device so you can test with it and NOT use your real devices UDID on the game at first.
If you do use UDID Faker for testing, just uninstall the app before using your real UDID so you can reset the connection settings to the Open-feint servers.
Ok lets get started!
I will pressume that you have already installed from cydia the following packages:
iFile - an app and
afc2add - an addon that allows you to use iPhoneBrowser to navigate through your device's filesystem.
On your Windows PC, you will need to download SQLite editor from here. And iPhoneBrowser from here.
We need to configure iFile for easy use so make a settings change in iFile to display the App name along with its GUID.
Run iFile and click the settings button on the bottom left (gear icon).
Then turn on 'Application Names' then click done.
The current version of iFile should have a home button. Touch the button and you should be at
/var/mobile
from there, touch Applications and find the App you want by name. In this example, i will be using Jet Car Stunts which is named JetCarStunts and its GUID begins with D07A2AC9, it will be different on you idevice. Notice the first 8 bytes of the GUID, that's all you need.
I know that SQLite for the iPhone can be used, but its a pain to navigate, in iFile to, the apps document folder,copy the db, then navigate to the SQLite app documents folder, paste, than exit iFile and then run SQLite on the iphone, back to iFile, and copy db back to the game folder. PAIN, PAIN,PAIN. So i use iPhoneBrowser instead.
iPhoneBrowser does not display Apps by name so you will need to use iFile from the steps above to find the GUID for the App in question.
Open iPhoneBrowser. You will need to wait as it reads the folder's structure when you click on any folder item.
in the left hand pane, click 'User'
then
Applications
then
Find the GUID associated with the app from the steps above.
Click the GUID folder, then find the Documents folder. The data base is stored in there as feint_offline.
right click on it then 'Save As'. I saved it to my Desktop.
Leave iPhoneBrowser running and then open 'SQLite Database Browser 2.0 b1' on your pc.
From there do the following
File
->Open Database
and navigate to your Desktop and click on feint_offline, then open.
You should see a list of tables. We are only interested in 'unlocked_achievements' and 'achievement_definitions'.
You should also notice the tabs along the top of the editor, click on 'Browse Data' and the the 'users' table from the drop down menu. In that table, notice your id, this will be needed in the next step.
Now click on 'Execute SQL' tab and paste the following in then 'SQL string'
insert into unlocked_achievements (user_id, achievement_definition_id, gamerscore) select [myid]
,id, gamerscore from achievement_definitions where id not in (select achievement_definition_id from unlocked_achievements)
*** change [myid] to your numeric id. so [myid] becomes 1234567 , but your numeric id instead.
Click 'Execute query' and that should do it. It should response with 'No error' in the message area. 'Data returned' section will be blank.
***NOTE: some games have a percent complete field in the database. Use the following query in the 'Execute SQL' tab to update it.
update unlocked_achievements set percent_complete=100
Click the save button (floppy disk icon) along the top, then File-->Close Database.
Now we are ready to replace the feint_offline file on the idevice.
Go back to iPhoneBrowser and rename the original db. Right click on it and then 'Rename File' and change it to feint_offline_org or something that you can tell its original.
Now drag the feint_offline file from the desktop to the folder in iPhoneBrowser where you just renamed the original.
Run the app once and open up the Open-feint dialog from with in the app, check your achievements. Your total for the achievements will be incorrect until you exit and then run the app again.
My Open-feint handle is DuhKidd[usa flag icon]. I have done this on over 100 games and my total achievement score is at 69731. I might get reset but hay, it's just a game, right?! I can always use UDID Faker to start over on every game!
This will work for about 99% of the games. I can not get it to work with 'Flamin Maze' and i have played over 90 games that use Open-feint.
One more thing, not every Open-feint game has achievements.
Have fun!
