The GSM Algorithm has been known to be weak and crackable with the right tools for years. The initial algorithms were created when cell phone did not have nearly the processing power we have today.

The decode key is not in the phone. It is established by the network and given to the phone at call setup. It is different for every call.

Sounds like the white hat hackers have not published the crack either, so they are the only ones who have it – them and the GSM association I’m sure.

Cool either way. Good post
