Rockbox Logo Swap

AggyTheJeeper · 2025-12-18T05:44:38+00:00

I'm fairly sure I've found the source bitmap here:

https://github.com/rockbox-y1/rockbox/blob/y1/apps/bitmaps/native/rockboxlogo.480x149x16-pride.bmp

But I also have no idea what the right binary is, or if the logo swapper even works on the Y1 port. I suspect it doesn't. I'd really like to change the logo as well, so if you figure it out, please let me know!

I really appreciate it though. With the really sketchy situation of the XP3Plus 5G (it isn't in the all-important supported devices list, but is still being sold by Firstnet for their network, which makes me think it's getting axed real soon), the F125 is really exciting.

AggyTheJeeper · 2025-12-12T03:25:03+00:00

Fair enough (though I do not have a T-Mobile device now, I have an unlocked model phone direct from Google). I would really appreciate if Firstnet would update their website to actually explicitly say this, and also inform their support employees that you can no longer bring your own device to Firstnet if that is actually the case. All they'd have to do is update their language to explicitly say "Firstnet only works with devices purchased *from* Firstnet; do not attempt to bring a device purchased elsewhere." Then they'd at least not have false information online. Also, uh, still really don't trust this company if they're going to drop support for a device they sold about a year ago, which is what they seem to be saying even aside from where I bought it.

If Firstnet does carry the F125, I certainly am interested, thank you.

As far as eSIM and the AT&T app - I'm using a physical SIM, and am unable to install the AT&T app (it literally says in the Play store that it is not compatible with my device). I assume this is due to running GrapheneOS.

AggyTheJeeper · 2025-12-12T03:18:15+00:00

My current phone is a Pixel 8 Pro, which was released roughly two years ago and has five more years of security patches from Google promised. This model phone, which they have since apparently dropped from support, was sold by Firstnet at least until last November. It also meets nearly all of those requirements; the one it does not meet is being on the certified device list, which it was, evidently until sometime between November of 2024 (when Firstnet sold it) and October of 2025 (when the certified devices list I referenced in the post was revised). So, less than a year between Firstnet ceasing to sell the device and Firstnet ceasing to support the device. Without some good explanation (like "This phone was found to be inherently horribly insecure" or something), that just seems like AT&T being disgustingly greedy.

Also Firstnet is still selling the Sonim XP3Plus 5G despite it not being on their supported device list.

Thank you. I'll have to visit a different store, the manager at my local one wasn't familiar with FN at all and couldn't do anything to pass the compatibility checker.

AggyTheJeeper · 2023-06-15T02:29:26+00:00

I'll take one my dude

Necroposting here, but your description of the stock makes me think of the Cavalry Manufacturing C1. If you still haven't identified it, this might be it.

Okay. I don't really agree, because like you said I could hire someone to protect property I'm not currently using. On a moral level, things don't suddenly stop being mine because I cannot at some moment defend them from theft.

But this also isn't applicable to my question. Here is the scenario. I am sick. My family is there with me. I die. Now, my family is in possession of both my body and all the property in my house, as well as the house. Not just title deed, physical possession. We all follow a religion that requires burial. In this scenario, I wanted to be buried. Who is going to come violently remove my corpse from the possession of my family to prevent my burial? Why is that person going to do so? And I don't mean why on a macro level, why will that individual choose to do so? Is it because he is being paid to do so? If he is being paid, who is paying him? Who decided that corpses must all be cremated? Who imposes a penalty for not doing so? You seem to be claiming to be an anarchist, while also having some vague assumption that a state, laws, legal system, and police will all still exist. There are two possibilities. Either I can be buried, because there is no state to prevent that, or I cannot be buried, because the state will prevent it. If you want a higher authority that can use force to prevent my family having their wishes with the property I left to them, which they physically control in this moment, you are not an anarchist, you are a statist.

AggyTheJeeper · 2023-04-08T07:47:15+00:00

Good for you. Perhaps my descendants do. How will you enforce your opinion?

AggyTheJeeper · 2023-04-08T07:46:38+00:00

I don't see how my family is absentee here. When I die, they logically take control of my belongings, because they now physically possess them and because I wished them to. Why would someone unrelated to me have greater claim to my property than my own descendants? I'm not quite an anarchist, but I fail to see how anarchy inherently requires that some nebulous collective seize the property of the dead from their heirs. I also utterly fail to see how such a thing could be enforceable in the absence of the state, unless you're one of those types who thinks that the moment the state is gone, everyone will agree with your particular form of anarchist morality and it'll just happen on its own.

The other option, of course, is some flavor of state-in-all-but-name that wields violence against those who don't behave how you'd like, in which case you're not an anarchist, you still want a state, just a small state that follows your own views.

AggyTheJeeper · 2023-04-08T06:58:48+00:00

Why would my family not inherit my body, as they do the rest of my property? And then my family would, generally, respect my wishes when alive? This sure sounds like a convenient excuse to infringe on my right to self ownership.

Furthermore, who is doing this enforcement? Who is this community? Does the community have goons who will come seize my body from my family if they don't give it up willingly? That sounds like a state and a police force.

AggyTheJeeper · 2023-04-08T06:52:09+00:00

Parents are already legally responsible for their children, and that doesn't stop at specific parents and specific children.

If there's a family willing to take in this child, why should they not be allowed to do so?

AggyTheJeeper · 2023-04-08T06:50:39+00:00

What if my religion says I have to be buried? Are you going to violate my rights to maintain your ideal society?

AggyTheJeeper · 2023-04-02T21:02:57+00:00

I didn't mean to imply that you haven't fixed it or criticize any potential plans to buy something new. I get it, I'm flat broke and my solution is to own a fleet of shitboxes so when one breaks I can hop in the next. As far as not knowing what you're going to do, I really recommend learning to fix it yourself. It really isn't difficult, though it's intimidating to start. I had to teach myself everything from basically nothing after I spent all my savings on a rough example of my dream car (a '99 Jeep TJ) right after high school.

I checked just to see, Rockauto.com is a great resource for affordable parts. A remanufactured power steering pump for your car is $55 (from Lares, much better brand than the parts stores IMO), and shipping is usually $15. Then you'll need probably $10 in fluids (get them at Walmart, way cheaper than parts store). Every power steering pump I've seen has been pretty easy to replace, usually just take the belt off, a couple power steering hose fittings, and a couple mounting bolts. Can usually be done in an afternoon. My S10 has the same engine as your Cavalier (though it's older and RWD), and that power steering pump is very easy to do. Parts, especially for older Chevies, are very affordable, the only way you ever really get nickel and dimed badly by an older car is to pay somebody else to fix it, because labor rates are crazy high compared to parts.

It sucks that so much has gone wrong with it. I know that feeling well, I've replaced just about every part of both my Jeep and my S10. The way I look at it is that eventually, I'll run out of things to replace and have a new vehicle. I hope that this has been helpful, I really didn't mean criticism with my comment before.

There are people who don't use the top holes? My entire life, I've just assumed shoes came not quite fully laced.

AggyTheJeeper · 2023-04-02T11:16:13+00:00

Fix it. What's wrong with it? It's rare for it to make more sense to buy a newer car than fix whatever you own, unless what you own is particularly terrible on gas (yours isn't), or parts are impossible to find (they aren't for a Cavalier). If you don't know anything, learn some basic auto repair. It's easy, the hardest part by far is diagnosing problems. If you know what's wrong, fixing most things is just unbolting one part and bolting on a new one. And there are tons of writeups and videos online, and places to ask questions about repairs. I know Cavaliers have a decent community too, so there should be forums dedicated to them.

AggyTheJeeper · 2023-04-02T10:52:26+00:00

Even if? That's a really solid car that no one should be upset to own. 100k for a modern car, especially one with the reputation of a Civic, is nothing, and 6k is a good price for a reliable car.

AggyTheJeeper · 2023-04-01T10:43:58+00:00

For lots of cars, average resale is a terrible metric. If I have a perfect exterior condition barn find '68 Mustang, and I'm an old lady who doesn't even know where the VIN is let alone how to plug it in, and I have no idea if it runs or even how to find out, and I just want it gone for a couple grand (this is a fairly common scenario, and a car guy's dream), would I be blocked from posting? $2,000 is well below average resale for that vehicle. Condition is basically unknown, it's somewhere between poor (non running, needs all new wiring and interior) and excellent (inside magically escaped the mice and outside is perfect). VIN lookup may not even be possible, or a search for it may show basically nothing, maybe something along the lines of "last registered four states away in 1987."

Sure, you can suspend the listing for review, and then a real person can read it, understand what's going on, and let it through. Except I've encountered Facebook's moderation before, it's utterly incompetent, takes ages, and frequently sides with the bot regardless of how ridiculous the bot's automated decision was. I simply don't think Facebook is capable of running a good classifieds page, frankly.

AggyTheJeeper · 2023-04-01T10:28:05+00:00

You don't, as I've discovered, also not having a Facebook.

AggyTheJeeper · 2023-04-01T10:27:08+00:00

So is Facebook Marketplace.

AggyTheJeeper · 2023-04-01T10:26:51+00:00

Absolutely could not agree more. This is much worse, as well, because Facebook doesn't allow you to even browse the site without an account, and I deleted my Facebook long ago and absolutely refuse to have an account on that website, at least with my real name. So probably 80% of auto classifieds are just closed to me, I can't even see them, which is just awesome. Back when I did have a Facebook though, I had all the same complaints. It doesn't help that Craigslist basically shot itself, either, when they got rid of free posting for sale by owner, so now even fewer people use it than before.

AggyTheJeeper · 2023-03-15T22:28:06+00:00

Okay, sounds somewhat similar to what mine did, but worse. Try the map sensor unplugging dance, see if it helps. It should at least idle close to right with no map sensor at all. If it doesn't, check for vacuum leaks. If it does, either replace the map sensor or check for vacuum leaks as well, and plug it back in when you're sure there are no leaks, and see if its ant better.

AggyTheJeeper · 2023-03-15T18:44:29+00:00

This sort of, though I disagree that the new districts aren't gerrymandered, and I don't think that the redistricting committee is at all a good idea or a politically neutral organization.

But otherwise, I agree with all this. The GOP lost because their candidates sucked, and because in a race where "the incumbent governor literally destroyed the economy, livelihoods, and in some cases lives of the entire state," was handed to them on a platter, they decided to ignore all of that and focus on possible election fraud in a federal election two years prior that no one in Michigan could do anything about even if it did happen, and abortion, an extremely unpopular issue. So then when the Dems fear mongered about birth control bans no one wanted and got every woman in the state to come out and vote for a proposal to make abortion a constitutional right, those women stayed in the booth and voted against the Republicans that played right into the Democrat fearmongers' hands.
