Calling all Russian hackers by name of Tester13.

Unfortunately no Galaxy NX (Android APS-C mirrorless camera) file but the NX1 is there. Could get interesting for those who know what they're doing.

Well this is truly insane. I bet we could see a Magic Lantern-style hack, maybe some form of internal RAW video. Even if it is the pixel-binned 1080p readout.

Wonder if Motion Cam will have a go at it?

It is basically running on Android the NX1 isn't it.

At least a variant of Linux. Hope some smart people take notice.

I’ve been playing with the Telnet on my NX1 hack and it shows up in terminal as Samsung Linux. I can navigate the whole system hierarchy I can use vim and I can open files and create them all using Unix like commands. It’s amazing. Gotta actually get a VM of Ubuntu running to play with the source code I just downloaded. I am trying to get the NX 1 to work as a webcam using Live Camera, CamTwist and OBS but though it is recognized I’m Camera Live it just shows a blank/black screen In CamTwist and OBS. Not sure what the solution is but im trying everything I can. This camera still kicks ass!!!
