I went and bought a iphone yesterday and transplanted some of the technology features and gave my itouch better RAM and hard drive space etc and was able to get ROBLOX mobile on it. :P

You can get Roblox Mobile on an stock iPod Touch. Plus I highly doubt anyone who would say that an iPod Touch has hard drive space(It is actually Flash) would know how to do the complex soldering and firmware hacking to hack an iPhone and an iPod Touch together, not to mention if you did then the CPU would still be an issue along with the GPU(Or lack there of).

Actually, it is quite possible that he is aware of the "Complex software and firmware hacking". An iPod touch, as complex as it may seem, is still a computer, and with nearly any computer, there are updates/ methods of reverse-engineering that can be implemented. It is still highly unlikely, though.

As someone who does understand computers quite well I have to say no it impossible, an iPod touch is not open source, and the hardware is not made to be modified. He claims to have taken parts from an iPhone and transplanted them in an older iPod Touch, this is impossible because, A. Microsoldering B. Closed-Source Firmware C. Basic Logistics I highly doubt that anyone playing Roblox has the resources to do such a thing. Not to mention that there is no "Update" to change the basic firmware to support other hardware in iOS that isn't made specifically for the device, and there is no method of reverse engineering that is applicable here. So common sense would say he is just making up an accomplishment to sound intelligent.
