you can do
wget https://github.com/ddvk/remarkable-hacks/raw/master/patches/2113/patch_06
you sure yout got a binary

from remarkable-hacks.

First I just ran ./xochitl.patched and I had 2 sidebars one over the other (yours and the classic one).

Then I followed patch.sh and did these commands and it worked! :

root@reMarkable:~# systemctl stop xochitl
root@reMarkable:~# systemctl stop remarkable-fail
root@reMarkable:~# rm /tmp/*crash*
root@reMarkable:~# rm -fr .cache/remarkable/xochitl/qmlcache/
root@reMarkable:~# QT_LOGGING_RULES=*=false ./xochitl.patched  || echo "It crashed?"

Thank you for your help.

from remarkable-hacks.

if you had it previously, you can make a copy of xochitl.2113 which should be in the root, download the latest patch and use bspatch to patch it and replace /usr/bin/xochitl (making a backup first)

or you can just boot the old partition and disable the updates
or you can mount the old partition and copy the last patched binary

from remarkable-hacks.

Thank you for the answer.

I made a backup of the two xochitl files and downloaded the patch in /home/root but now I am not sure how to use the patch. Is it this way? :
bspatch /usr/bin/xochitl /home/root/xochitl.2113 /home/root/patch.sh

Afterwards, I will have to replace /usr/bin/xochitl by /home/root/xochitl.2113?

from remarkable-hacks.

the patch is: patches/2113/patch_06
bspatch xochitl.2113 xochitl.patched patch_06

then start to test and move .patched

Hello ddvk-- I love the tools you created! They made reMarkable incredible.

I accidentally updated to 2.2 and lost your tools. The above thread is beyond my capability. Is there a forthcoming update that is compatible with 2.2, or is there a way to downgrade back to 2.1?

A million thanks to you from Denver, Colorado!

from remarkable-hacks.

here is somthing easier:

cp /usr/bin/xochitl xochitl.22048
mkdir -p other
mount -v | grep 'on / ' | cut -f1 -d ' '
# will show /dev/mmcblk1p2 or /dev/mmcblk1p3 use the opposite (e.g. if p3 use p2) below

mount /dev/mmcblk1p2 other
cp other/usr/bin/xochitl /usr/bin/xochitl
systemctl restart xochitl

Hi ddvk.

Thanks so much for creating the hack and for helping everyone with this.
Unfortunately I only discovered the hack now – I already updated to 2.2 and have thus never previously used the hack.

I know it must be super annoying to answer, but do you have any plans on updating to 2.2? :-)

Thanks!

from remarkable-hacks.

try again with the automagic, the official version has some bugs and was waiting for them to fix them, but anyway here's something

from remarkable-hacks.

It worked! Thanks so much. Epic tweaks, very much appreciated :-)

from remarkable-hacks.

[2.2.0.48 - patch_01]
I've noticed that after pressed eraser button, pen button does not work.
For the rest it seems perfect!
Thanks for all you're doing ♡

from remarkable-hacks.

sorry about that, fixed in patch_02

from remarkable-hacks.

Which version is installed right now using the automagic code on the home page of the hack? I recently upgraded to rM OS 2.2, so reinstalled the hack. My rM is reporting Version 2.2.0.48, with hack version patch05_1...

from remarkable-hacks.

well, depends on your version, the patches are version specific

from remarkable-hacks.

OK, so the automagic code on home page, if I'm running rM OS 2.2.0.48 is automatically going to install the 22048 version of your hack? And even though the above thread says that the eraser problem was fixed in patch_02, it's normal that mine is reporting patch05_1? Sorry, I'm not at all Linux literate, so the only thing I know how to do is SSH in and use your automagic script. Thanks!

from remarkable-hacks.

correct, if the eraser is working then it s fixed ;). ignore the version in setting (for problem reporting only)

from remarkable-hacks.

Perfect! Thanks so much for letting me know, and once again my thanks for this incredible hack!

from remarkable-hacks.

updated readme, patches ported to 22048

from remarkable-hacks.

here is somthing easier:

cp /usr/bin/xochitl xochitl.22048
mkdir -p other
mount -v | grep 'on / ' | cut -f1 -d ' '
# will show /dev/mmcblk1p2 or /dev/mmcblk1p3 use the opposite (e.g. if p3 use p2) below

mount /dev/mmcblk1p2 other
cp other/usr/bin/xochitl /usr/bin/xochitl
systemctl restart xochitl

Hi. i did this to revert to an earlier version so i could use your hacks. How do i revert back to the latest version?
