It's entirely possible ... there are a couple of threads where it appears that a release may have been hex-d more than one time, to make it more difficult to determine the true build number.

There was a bit of time back in September when one of the long-standing chef's over at XDA were running or at least advertising 5.2.22222 ... which was obviously fake. I am not going to say who, because I can't remember and don't want to throw a name out there that is wrong.

Hexing these DSM modules isn't difficult, but it is tedious ... you think there is an unpublished tool out there _or_ are people actually hexing all of these sys and xip modules by hand, just for kicks and to throw people off the beaten track?

Oh, and sorry to thread-jack ... just an interesting topic ... and I have no way of knowing if 21109 is legitimate or not ... point being: how can one really tell anymore, unless you are in the loop and receiving directly from the HTC, Sony or Microsoft leak?

Best regards,
