 oak 🏳️🌈♥️ | My OnePlus 8 Pro does not seem to have that with LineageOS Robotnix build | 00:47:42 |
 samueldr | I'm low-key wondering if it's something "simple" like it's using some identifier that changes as a "trust anchor" type thing to prevent system software swap | 00:48:00 |
 atemu12 | It didn't work on my FP4 either | 00:48:04 |
| atemu12 | Just says "Call ended" | 00:48:14 |

| atemu12 | And when I typed it into the dialer it just wiped my input upon entering the last * O.o | 00:48:35 |

And when I typed it into the dialer it just wiped my input upon entering the last * O.o that would mean it got handled I think | 00:48:58 |
| atemu12 | Huh | 00:49:06 |
| atemu12 | No menu or anything popped up though | 00:49:17 |
| samueldr | "handled" | 00:49:24 |
| atemu12 | Right | 00:49:30 |
| atemu12 | Perhaps LOS is missing whatever blob is responsible for this | 00:49:50 |
| samueldr | the ##...## numbers are to launch some arbitrary stuff, and very build-dependent (and kind of a misfeature imo) | 00:50:04 |
| samueldr | * the *#*#...#*#* numbers are to launch some arbitrary stuff, and very build-dependent (and kind of a misfeature imo) | 00:50:16 |
| samueldr | AFAIK any (system?) software(?) can hook its own thing there | 00:50:33 |
| atemu12 | Oh boy | 00:50:40 |
| atemu12 | Today on things that should just be a hidden service app | 00:50:50 |
| samueldr | I don't know the mechanisms, just the overall vibe | 00:50:56 |
| samueldr | oh, it might also be in a hidden service app | 00:51:07 |
| samueldr | and served by that app | 00:51:10 |
| atemu12 | Right | 00:51:16 |
| * samueldr is looking at something | 00:51:48 |
| atemu12 | (Don't fall into a rabbit hole!) | 00:52:07 |
| atemu12 | (Or do, whatever your current mood is ;) ) | 00:52:33 |
| oak 🏳️🌈♥️ | I used to work in one Android phone development project in the past and there I became very familiar with many of the security related parts of the Android OS, and I remember looking at fingerprint back then as well. But it's already almost 10 years ago | 00:52:44 |
| atemu12 | Oh wow that must have been brand new | 00:53:07 |
| samueldr | https://developer.android.com/reference/android/telephony/TelephonyManager#ACTION_SECRET_CODE | 00:53:07 |
| atemu12 | I think those only really became a thing ~2015-ish | 00:53:20 |
| samueldr | In reply to @atemu12:matrix.org
(Don't fall into a rabbit hole!) it's simpler than you think | 00:53:43 |
| atemu12 | Even official docs, wow | 00:54:07 |
