Filmic pro on Galaxy S7 on non-stock Android

I have an old Galaxy S7 (herolte) that I wanted to use for filming. Looking for a rom with a maintained and fairly modern Android I found pixelexperience.

I found both the built-in camera app and the OpenCamera app from F-droid somewhat lacking. Don't get my wrong, OpenCamera is a great piece of software, I just wanted some more "pro" features like real-time anamorphic demorphing and such.

While I try to avoid proprietary software in my day to day I decided to give Filmic Pro a try to see if it could turn this old device into a useful camera.

This guide was written based on Filmic Pro version 6.9.1

Unfortunately Filmic fails to launch getting stuck at the splash screen after asking for various permissions. Looking at adb logcat output it was clear that it was looking for the file scamera_sdk_util.jar in the /system/framework and not finding it.

Guide to using an August Smart Lock Pro using only open source software and Z-Wave (after one-time setup)

This is a quick guide for how to set up an August Smart Lock Pro for use with Home Assistant using only locally hosted open source software.

This is a nice solution if you already have a deadbolt with a manual key-less toggle on the inside of the door since installation takes about two minutes and you don't loose the manual toggle capability even if the batteries die.

The initial setup process if full of badness (identity verification, cloud bullshit and location data) but after the one-time setup it will run locally with just z-wave and no proprietary or cloud stuff.

The August lock uses four AA batteries. They recommend non-rechargable batteries (probably due to the discharge curve for AA being better for correlating voltage with battery level and warning users about low battery before it's too late).

Note that you will need a bunch of non-free terrible software for the initial setup and to change certain settings. Specifically you will need an iOS or Android device with bluetooth, internet and in case

Overview of VLAN config on OpenWRT using DSA

This a quick guide to configuring tagged VLAN using DSA on OpenWRT routers with a switch and only a single physical ethernet port.

This was tested on a Xiaomi Redmi AC2100 (MT7621 chipset) running OpenWRT Snapshot from April 19th 2021.

Here's how you make an interface lan3.2 which will send tagged packets on lan port 3. This assumes the lan port 3 interface is called lan3.

config interface 'pub'
        option ifname 'lan3.2'

Attach router's WAN port to internet (or at least a DHCP server).

Connect to router's wifi (it has no password per default) then go to http://192.168.31.1/ and click through the setup wizard.

When it asks for a password just give it something easy to remember.

Once the setup wizard is done, connect your computer to one of the routers WAN ports and again go to http://192.168.31.1/ and enter the password you set to log in.

I recommend flashing the version 2.0.23 firmware before going any further. I know the exploit works on some newer firmwares but I also know it doesn't work on some 1.x firmwares. Search the web for the filename firmware miwifi_rm2100_all_fb720_2.0.23.bin to find the correct firmware.

Guide for setting up GPIB support in Linux for the HP/Agilent 82350 A and B PCI cards

This is a guide for getting the HP/Agilent 82350 A or B GPIB cards working on Linux.

There are other guides made by other people for a couple of other GPIB adapters here:

Unfortunately the mainline Linux kernel does not have any GPIB support. Even more unfortunate is that neither Ubuntu nor Debian appear to have packages for the kernel modules nor do any third-party apt repos appear to exist that are remotely up to date.

Install Brother MFC-J480DW on Ubuntu

Download the two .deb packages from Brother's website:

  • mfcj480dwlpr-1.0.0-0.i386.deb
  • mfcj480dwcupswrapper-1.0.0-0.i386.deb

Install them both at the same time: sudo apt install mfcj*.deb

Add a new printer using the GUI and enter the IPP URI manually like: ipp://<ip>:631/ipp

In the Printer Settings -> Printer Options change Media Size to Letter (unless you're using A4 of course).
