 samueldr | Andreas Schrägle: "just" flash through that if you have the signed programmer, signed by the an accepted authority which would be the OEM, here google | 20:48:41 |
 danielrf | But besides that I believe it should be safe | 20:48:48 |
| samueldr | and google's, I think for all devices except nexus 7 (2013) haven't been published | 20:49:13 |
| samueldr | not sure about other nexus devices, but pretty sure it wasn't for anything pixel | 20:49:33 |

is it a bad idea to distribute a robotnix build across multiple machines? I do that, works fine. But what danielrf says does apply. | 21:03:05 |

Andreas Schrägle: "just" flash through that if you have the signed programmer, signed by the an accepted authority which would be the OEM, here google I didn't need that for my moto x4, back in the day | 22:04:18 |
| samueldr | what tool did you use to reflash? | 22:04:51 |
| samueldr | though motorola is different | 22:05:11 |
| samueldr | they have the "blankflash" thing | 22:05:18 |
| samueldr | which I'm not sure how it is implemented | 22:05:31 |
| samueldr | whether it's like oneplus, where the programmer is part of the tool you use to unbrick, or if it's another distinct protocol | 22:05:48 |
| ajs124 | some windows thing, but there's also something by linaro. qms? something like that. | 22:25:15 |
| samueldr | I never had a bricked motorola to blankflash so I can't say for sure | 22:28:22 |
| samueldr | I'm giving it 50/50 that the programmer is part of the tool :) | 22:28:31 |
| samueldr | or of the data | 22:28:36 |

 Xe (xe/they) | wow it really does take a bit to build android from source lol | 01:39:24 |
| samueldr | Xeon E5-1660 took ~10 hours per build for LineageOS a while back | 01:40:12 |
| Xe (xe/they) | i also am using the chromium cachix stuff | 01:44:25 |
 kranzes | With a R7 2700x it took me 3 and a half hours to build LineageOS | 14:03:00 |
| kranzes | With bromite/chromium cachix | 14:03:28 |
| Xe (xe/they) | i think i may take the full dive plunge into robotnix later today with a pixel 5. do you have any advice for someone that is switching from an iPhone? | 16:24:14 |
| samueldr | Xe (xe/they): luckily, robotnix shouldn't really be felt on the system once running | 16:27:02 |
| samueldr | if you meant advice about day to day usage of the OS | 16:27:17 |
| samueldr | oh, never finished the though: so any "android for iOS users" advice should still apply | 16:28:32 |
| samueldr | depending on whether or not you added google play may change these advices | 16:28:48 |
| Xe (xe/they) | i more mean in things like installing google play into the rom so i can get to things like tasker, is that hard to do? | 16:29:12 |
| Xe (xe/they) | or do i just sideload it | 16:29:18 |
| Xe (xe/they) | the dream imo would be having the play store in the rom directly | 16:30:25 |
| samueldr | I'm not 100% sure here, I have lots of experience with ROMs, but mainly with lineageos-flavoured ones | 16:31:03 |
| ajs124 | https://github.com/danielfullmer/robotnix/issues/47
there's an issue for that but maybe the person that said they'd work on it haven't really done that so far | 16:31:12 |
