speaking of battery stats..they should make an option to check the battery status in terms of percent.

Actually, I'm not exactly sure what any of these screenshots mean. All I know is that I may have found something to do with the zune's innerworkings. If the computer can read the battery status, that has to mean something, right?

It looks like what you managed to do is get Windows Explorer to see the Zune. The Zune uses MS's MTP protocol and would normally show up in Explorer, but the Zune driver package hides it. This is how the file storage hack for pre-3.0 Zune worked.

Unfortunately, while whatever you found might lead to a working way to load files onto the Zune again, it doesn't bring a successful hack any closer. It's already possible to send commands to the Zune and read device info, including battery life, with Microsoft's tools (wpdinfo.exe in particular comes to mind), but the scope of what you can do with that is quite limited.

ah, but this is no scandal whatsoever. I am screenshotting everything, and clearly saying I have no idea how to do this. I am doing research, but I am not afraid to admit that if I fail, I will fail epicly. I will admit my failure. This is no scandal, this is a community driven program. Free to everyone.
