Matrix does have stickers

As others have said, you can completely disable the stock launcher through ADB commands. At that point, if you hit home, you’ll be asked which app to perform that action with. Select your launcher, click “Always”, and done.

Dang that’s impressive

Or disappointing, Idk

Vikunja seems to check all your boxes

You can even just do Ctrl+A, Ctrl+C, Ctrl+V.

It somehow feels… Wrong, but it just works.

Thanks! Yep, same thought about the version checks. I’ll spin up a VM for now and see if that allows for suitable experimentation, otherwise fingers crossed I don’t brick the device.

The web-server thing is probably safer, agreed, but packaging my own update is just so much more tempting… :D

Oh whoops I thought you were 0v0 🤦🏼‍♀️ Thanks anyways though :D

Hey, thanks, but that’s the A5x, a newer Android tablet. Different hard and software

Fantastic.

Since the zip also includes a bunch of shell scripts, I think it’s possible I could also just install ssh directly - but the image will certainly make experimenting in a VM the safer option until something works out… ^^

Oh man, I can’t wait to get home from work on Friday (currently stuck on the other side of the country 🫠)

Edit: also, can I somehow buy you a beer/coffee somewhere?

No way!! You’re the goat. I spent the day trying to get behind how the cracking worked by making simple examples, and you just… Solve the puzzle :D

Awesoms, thank you so much!! I’ll appreciate update this thread if this leads to something :D

Theoretically… But this is 5 levels of knowledge above my head, I fear :D

I own the goddamn device, I should be able to do whatever I want with it…

The device, if connected, reads as mtp. Can’t reformat.

Yeah, good idea. They added a network “mirroring” functionality at some point, so SOMETHING is listening on some port.

Oh, wow. I am so giving this a try. Huge kudos for checking the zip itself, btw! Thank you :D

Just for clarification though, do I need 12 bytes of the original content or of the compressed (but unencrypted) byte-representation of the zip file?

Edit: Ah, the repo links the paper. Reading now :)

Yeah, should have gone with that one… :D

Hmm, certainl worth a try! Thanks for the idea!!

Thanks, but that’s the A5x, a newer Android version of the tablet (hard- and software are different)

journalctl -fu servicename

If I am concerned about a specific service, and can trigger the problematic behavior.

In my head it stands for “fuck you” ☺️

Fuck Amazon, fuck Alexa.

But that wall clock is glorious. It’s a decently look clock, but seeing how much time you have left on multiple timers with a single glance is so incredibly useful. Especially when you’re cooking.

I’m currently in the process of migrating away from the shit Alexa ecosystem, but no matter what I end up with, I’ll have to find an alternative for this clock
