📌 TODO
- [x] Nano 6G support
- [x] Auto-download
.MSEfiles - [x] Upgraded TUI interface
- [ ] GUI (QT / Tkinter) - Soon
- [x] Support both 2012 and 2015 hardware
- [x] macOS support (NOT TESTED)
- [x] Custom firmware flashing device (not locked to
/dev/sda) - [X] Improve detection of iPod revision
- [x] Windows support (BETA)
⚠️ Notes
- GitHub does not allow files >100MB, so
.MSEfiles are not included - Script auto-downloads missing firmware files when needed
- Seeing
LIBUSB_ERROR_NO_DEVICEat the end of flashing is normal - Windows support is BETA; Linux/macOS is recommended for reliability
