%title Adventures in hacking KaiOS
:hack:nadir:
%date 2021-11-20 02:28
I want to root my Nokia 800 tough ([[nadir]]) so that I can run some apps from bananahackers, namely the podcasts one (FoxCasts?), Telegram and Habits, and maybe try task warrior and some subsonic compatible music player through PWA web apps I fonud. Ideally I'd get to install GerdaOS on it, so it's not fucking owning me and is at least somewhat "privacy enhanced"
However because I updated my firmware, even after going through all the work figuring out why the fuck I couldn't get a firefox devShell to opoen the v59 edition of firefox that *was* installed, I can't get root.
At least not without patching the boot image through EDL or Fire Hose or whatever it's called. Which is annoying
