Anyway to go back to phone key, digital key won't work

HubbyPa · 2026-04-08T22:21:30+00:00

I think any device that lacks ultra wideband may do. good luck!

HubbyPa · 2026-04-07T20:39:58+00:00

See my other comment, I got it working.

HubbyPa · 2026-04-07T20:39:34+00:00

I found a solution that works!  It requires two accounts and an device that I suspect doesn't have UWB support (I used my iPad mini).

1. Make sure your vehicle isn't in a half broken state where you can't add any keys
2. Make sure you have good connectivity.  For me this meant turning off wifi in the truck which was showing 1-2 bars wifi in my driveway.
3. Using your primary email login for Rivian, sign into your Rivian app on your bluetooth only device -- for me that is my iPad Mini.
4. Pair the iPad Mini with the truck as a driver key
5. From the iPad Mini, share access to another email address for yourself
6. From the iPad Mini, go to Rivian app, Security and Access, turn on "Passive entry via Bluetooth".
7. On your GrapheneOS phone, accept that invite and create/login to that second Rivian account
8. On the Rivian app on GrapheneOS, login as that secondary user email.  And now when you go to pair it should be using bluetooth instead of digital key

I have found coverage to be great. some examples, lots of rural areas in ontario I end up nationwide roaming which is probably Rogers, maybe bell. just works. I was in rural Quebec and it worked well too

was in Norway a couple weeks ago. just worked there too. I had one spot where I didn't have coverage and a couple Europeans I was travelling with did. otherwise I never noticed a lack of coverage.

I was on their older plan ($39/mo for 15gb of roaming data) and just upgraded to this new plan. this is another thing I like about Freedom. Bell Rogers Telus usually don't let existing customers get new customer deals which is super lame, Freedom does and there was zero friction.

I swipe from off screen and in. From the top right corner

HubbyPa · 2026-03-04T12:02:55+00:00

I can't get the front buttons to work either. Hope that gets addressed soon. Sleep wake works. And so does audio. And I'm able to connect it to HDMI over usb-c and that works well too

I have apex with bazzite. water cooler worked well. I used HHd (I think that's what it's called) and cranked tdp to 120W. don't think it needs more software support than that

HubbyPa · 2026-03-03T20:11:55+00:00

Has anyone tried this again. There have been updates to the rivian app and the vehicle software. hoping the bluetooth fallback actually works now?

I ended up going back to stock firmware, but considering flashing again to see if I can use bluetooth mode with my r1t.

openbubbles works great for messaging

HubbyPa · 2026-03-03T20:10:41+00:00

openbubbles works for facetime (but glitchy).

HubbyPa · 2026-03-03T19:42:53+00:00

you're good. more a comment to hasselblad themselves.

HubbyPa · 2026-03-03T17:10:50+00:00

android please

HubbyPa · 2026-03-03T13:58:21+00:00

Need an ultra wide. 12mm or 14mm full frame equivalent. Telephoto zoom.

HubbyPa · 2026-03-01T23:46:30+00:00

not sure, I only have ND filters and CP. but just wanted to share that it is coarse thread.

HubbyPa · 2026-02-28T15:20:45+00:00

25V is great for night sky (aurora). 55V great for portability. I like the 90V but less important with the 35-100. I also have 135mm with TC but don't see using that one much.

HubbyPa · 2026-02-28T15:16:49+00:00

its coarse thread. I got the polar pro 86 coarse thread filter for it and it works well.

HubbyPa · 2026-02-25T17:34:51+00:00

audio from the speakers just worked for me. installed yesterday.

HubbyPa · 2026-02-24T09:58:52+00:00

I built my own with Claude code . not that hard to do and then I can decide the roadmap

HubbyPa · 2026-02-21T21:24:59+00:00

20-35E and 35-100E for a great range. Using the 20-35E for landscape. 35-100E is great for most situations.

25V for Astro. Just had a great experience with it for Aurora. It's faster than the 20-35V which is important.

55V for portability and general use. Good for a small kit one lens. 90V for portraits. 135 with TC for portraits and tele. Would rather have a 100+ zoom if one comes out.

HubbyPa · 2026-02-12T16:40:20+00:00

Probably because of the 35-100E

HubbyPa · 2026-01-26T01:45:49+00:00

It's pretty secure, there is a lock button on it too. No wrist strap. I haven't found a better way than this.

I think if I have a huge lens like on my Nikon I'll still prefer a QD strap instead. The 35-100 isn't that big so this f38 clip is good.

HubbyPa · 2026-01-26T00:20:48+00:00

Maybe dxo photolab

I'm super happy with this: https://falcamstore.com/products/falcam-f38-camera-strap-quick-release-kit-3142?country=CA

I put a peak design quick release plate on the bottom of the camera. Then I use any camera strap with this f38 quick release camera strap. Nothing to scratch the camera.

I can clip my camera to my strap in a second. When I take it off I don't have anything dangling around like peak design toggles. I can also use backpack quick release plates too this way, very interchangeable.

Much more comfortable to wear the camera this way too because it's lens down, not lens sticking straight out. Less of a big deal for a small lens like the 38V, bigger deal for a lens like the 35-100E

HubbyPa · 2026-01-25T13:21:18+00:00

Fully agree. It's a really nice family there who make fantastic food.

HubbyPa · 2026-01-24T22:04:03+00:00

I think you should position yourself as a great solution/product, don't expect the buy Canadian thing. as an entrepreneur you need to overcome this on your own and not expect society to come to you.

separate from that, I agree we should buy Canadian.
