So the mods isnt really active about staus, so i decided to leave this here


Updates

04/08/2016 - 00:49 GMT+1 : Logic and proto behind seem to have changed MapRequest, we're investigating. 04/08/2016 - 01:37 GMT+1 : Proto files have not changed and new hashes etc. did not have any effect so far. Our best guess currently is that the requests are cryptographically signed somehow, but we don't know anything for sure yet.

04/08/2016 - 02:07 GMT+1 : It's becoming more evident that this is a non-trivial change, and will take much longer than planned to get reverse engineered again.

04/08/2016 - 08:08 GMT+1 : Everyone is currently working on debugging and attempting to trace where unknown6 is being generated. What we know so far can summed-up here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1gVySwQySdwpT96GzFT9Tq0icDiLuyW1WcOcEjVfsUu4

04/08/2016 - 15:06 GMT+1 : We can now confirm that Unknown6 is related to the API Changes. However, we're conducting further analysis."

04/08/2016 - 21:13 GMT+1 : We know most of the payload that goes into the "unknown6" hash, still working on the encryption/signature algorithm itself. -keyphact,/r/pokemongovdev

04/08/2016 - 23:43 GMT+1 : May have figured out encyption, investigation continues.

They do now have a LIVE Reddit thread: LIVE Reddit thread for pokemongodev

Someone get this guy a fucking cookie!!!
thank you man now that is valuable information.
 
GMT +1, 23:30 (sorry wrong timestamp previously) - We have much of the encryption understood. We however still dont know, how exactly the input is stored (protobuffer), this issue is very complicated. This is needed to track down the remaining inputfields.
GMT +1, 01:30 - We've got the encryption fully working (although we dont fully understand it)! You could call this breakthrough #3. The primary thing we are working on is getting the protobuffer.
This is a journey for me also. It is hard to keep up with what the devs are doing. What is a "protobuf format" for example? I am told it sits between the input and the encryption. It takes the inputvalues, rearranges them and sends them off for encryption. Like a blueprint for the inputdata.
Now we have the encryptionpart fully working, but we cannot backtrack to the input because we dont know how the blueprint arranged the inputvalues. Therefore we are making our own blueprint (protobuf-format)! Backtracking one step at a time. As we work on our protobuff format the input will become clear hopefully.

You guys are the real MVPs, besides the guy doing the work. You're the reporting version of the MVP.... something...
Anyway good job guys and thanks.
 
Wow - really non-trivial stuff they are working out. I have done some reverse engineering and I wouldn't even attempt to do what they are doing.
 
What they are doing is a hell of a lot of trial/error. Multiple different people with different expertise working on it.
 
From the live reddit thread
"35 minutes ago"

"Progress has been made! Another field of the input, unk24, has been uncovered. Don't get your hopes up yet though; we still have another field, unk22 to go. Fantastic news, it feels good to get so far, so quickly. More updates to follow.
