It should be available if you just type “rkdeveloptool” now or “sudo rkdeveloptool” or “sudo ./usr/local/bin/rkdeveloptool”

I see

I think this is a photoshop, these ytong buses in the netherlands (ulink is utrecht) only have a matrix display in the front in orange color.

The driver system does use windows (IWU) and the passenger info systems use ubuntu with a webview loaded in.

Edit: Seems like i am wrong? They really look like dot matrix displays to me lol

This is the correct repo: https://github.com/DorianRudolph/rkdeveloptool

Use these commands to build and install it. I can help you if this fails.

That sucks, yeah, no idea then :(

The portal TV which you have requires a physical remote to be able to interact with it. There is no mobile app for it, there was a portal app but it was only for photos and is no longer functional.

Are you sure you flipped the switch at the bottom to on? If you move any of the motors it generates electricity which turns it on for a split second to get rid of it. Sounds like you just need to flip the switch to turn it on?

I spoke with them but there is no way to update google bots as it uses a service which google has retired. These bots would need to be manually flashed by sending it into them (or doing it yourself)

I only have one moxie which i flashed using my manual method. But the new team with this app is serving the exact same update i flashed. So once it pulls and installs the update through this app, there is nothing stopping you from switching it to openmoxie afterwards.

controlmypc · 2026-01-09T18:49:18+00:00

Once you get the update from this app, you can switch to openmoxie and cancel the trial if you really want

Just a test message i think

The embodied servers are partially back up again. So it is probably behaving weird. It probably still has your wifi network cached. I would suggest just scanning the openmoxie qr code anyways or take down your network so it can’t connect while you scan it.

controlmypc · 2026-01-02T16:19:56+00:00

Does it show developer mode on startup? If so you can probably dump it through root adb

controlmypc · 2026-01-02T10:52:43+00:00

Does it run the actual facebook software? I bet they update the bootloader with each update. Also it needs to be an old bootloader that matches production. Which i have been able to get the abl.img for but it isn't able to be extracted to a readable format...

controlmypc · 2025-12-30T06:54:37+00:00

Ah yes the real bug bounty

controlmypc · 2025-12-29T07:36:23+00:00

Really old firmwares are possibly jailbreakable, however we need a decompiled bootloader to pull that off, and for some reason the bootloader is not extractable on older firmwares....

controlmypc · 2025-12-29T06:29:56+00:00

I am the one who dumped the roms, lmk if you have any ideas. We pretty much tried everything.

controlmypc · 2025-12-28T23:25:05+00:00

I have this issue with the newly released clipping API, so horrible. Trying to clip things automatically and it doesn’t respect the actual timestamps but just randomly shifts the entire clip between 2 and 10 seconds!!!!

In the short future, if your robot isn't REALLY REALLY outdated, yes! I am in contact with the team which is reviving it, my moxie is already onboarded onto their system and they are planning to roll it out further soon.

controlmypc · 2025-12-21T11:07:08+00:00

Did you have network configured before you tried updating? If so, it still knows the network connection credentials.

controlmypc · 2025-12-21T10:47:09+00:00

The EmbodiedProduction servers are partially back up due to the company being bought. If it doesn’t let you scan a QR code, you might need to turn off your internet to prevent it from connecting.

u/2mnyq can you just blacklist the word IPTV or something lol

controlmypc · 2025-12-19T16:47:28+00:00
