@j3rn Jeeze, these things are getting so beefy :P The xreal beam pro might be an OK alternative too. Termux or VNC into a linux box could get around some system limitations for example. I guess it also depends on what you want to do on em? I mostly do node/rust dev lately which is okay ish on ARM.
@j3rn Yeah big same. Or even something with the same specs of my GPD WIN 4 but just a compute puck with a battery.
Phones are a bit too weak IMO
16. I feel like I'm the sort of weirdo that'd wear chair pants in public and sometimes I really do be wanting to sit whenever. Feels like it'd be a good part of my "cyborg setup" with the scanner thingie.
Anyway. I know plenty of people have said this before but "disabled" is is the minority you can be forced to join with no consent or advance notice. You can see those tiny fonts fine, you've got two working hands and fine motor control, you can hear, you can walk an unassisted city block pain free on two working feet? Sure you can. Today. For now. Maybe tomorrow, too!

@GayDeceiver french philosophers be like
@trwnh IMO the Nostr approach of keeping keys in the client and having relays be more simple is good. Key management and multi devicw identity is a major PITA, but there's a lot of known approaches that can be taken.
@tahnok That's awesome! I haven't reversed BLE stuff in ages. I usually just decompile / recompile the vendor's app then set breakpoints/logpoints in the Android APIs for talking to the characteristics then do replays. Any tips on the firmware rewriting? I'd love to have some flow where I could turn it into something like C and back but have no clue where to even start. 😅
EDIT: I have more advice than I know what to do with thank you so much, I'll hopefully be able to convince her to let me back up and wipe the phone. If she doesn't consent to that, I also have some good direction on detecting anything malicious. Thank you again <3
ORIGINAL POST: Can anyone point me toward some resources on detecting and removing stalkerware on Android?
A friend of a friend has just gotten out of an abusive relationship and I've been asked the look over their phone and computer for any stalkerware the ex might have planted. I'm fairly confident in my abilities on a PC, but not an android phone.

Made progress towards fixing Agregore on Ubuntu last night. Got my final bits copied off an old manjaro box so I can wipe it and have an actual machine to test on. Sadly I haven't been able to reproduce the macos issues folks reported. Might be an m4 mac issue and I don't have the budget to indulge in that right now 😅
This song's chorus has been stuck in my head for the past hour.

@tahnok did the q ring one not work for you? I ended up choosing the ring because of gadgetbridge support since I have some other peripherals controlled through it as well. 😁
@burrito.space this is the closest option BTW: https://github.com/atc1441/ATC_RF03_Ring
@burrito.space nothing off the shelf that I'm aware of. This guy had some docs on how to flash custom firmware on certain models but the available firmware is barebones and my skill level is too low. 🥲
