If he's talking about getting root on that big screen in the middle, it's been done before:

However, the guy who did it before told everyone exactly how he did it, without any "secret script sorry :^)".

wk57 got direct access to the CID by unsoldering the ROM from a salvaged screen. I honestly wouldn't have the guts to do that.

This is an easy way to go if you are good at soldering under a microscope to put it back together. I've considered doing it this way but I'd prefer to figure out the software route...
