development

[magic hazel]

Aight I’ve done it, $5 per tweak please

./j

so cool it works tho

[manic forum]

iproxy 2222 22, then ssh -p2222 root@0

[crisp frost]

Or just do

ssh -o 'ProxyCommand=inetcat 22' -o 'UserKnownHostsFile /dev/null' -o 'StrictHostKeyChecking no' root@frcoal

[magic hazel]

yeah i cant be assed to do allat

[magic hazel]

frcoal?

[crisp frost]

Yes

it will work

trust

[manic forum]

okay mineek

[magic hazel]

i forgot linux goes off at me when i plug my device into it

ill run it

[manic forum]

Also a Fedora issue

[crisp frost]

make sure to have libimobiledevice installed for inetcat

[manic forum]

In a new Terminal window,```
sudo systemctl stop usbmuxd
sudo usbmuxd -f -p

[magic hazel]

its already installed but it still didnt run

[manic forum]

(I don't know what the flags f p do)

But they work

[crisp frost]

-f is foreground

[magic hazel]

it says inetcat not found but that package is installed

[crisp frost]

-p is uhh

[manic forum]

I may be stupid

[manic forum]

I think the package is called libimobiledevice-utils or something

Try dnf search libimobiledevice

[magic hazel]

there is a utils pkg

[manic forum]

Yeah

That

Install that

[magic hazel]

still didnt run

eh

its fine

[crisp frost]

@magic hazel libusbmuxd-utils

I think

[magic hazel]

sure ill try it

new error

Error connecting to device: Inappropriate ioctl for device

[crisp frost]

yeah idk what all that means

works for me

😭

[manic forum]

@crisp frost i love fedora

[magic hazel]

okay

now i combined 2 hooks

time to test

hmm thats not what i wanted

i shouldve run the green hook first

[manic forum]

Someone should make an ios daemon that automatically installs any package that is sent to a discord channel and resprings

[magic hazel]

@interface SBHomeScreenViewController : UIViewController
@end

@interface _UIStatusBarForegroundView : UIView
@end

%hook _UIStatusBarForegroundView

-(void)didMoveToWindow{
    %orig;
    self.alpha = 0.3;
}

%end

%hook SBHomeScreenViewController

-(void)viewDidLoad {
    %orig;
    UIView *ourView = [[UIView alloc] init];
    ourView.frame = CGRectMake(0, 0, 200, 50);
    ourView.backgroundColor = [UIColor greenColor];
    [self.view addSubview:ourView];
}

%end```

my L code

how does one instead make a cicle

circle

instead of a rectangle

[radiant idol]

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/6589265/how-to-draw-a-custom-uiview-that-is-just-a-circle-iphone-app

that's when you start using stackoverflow

[magic hazel]

oh boy oh boy oh boy

[manic forum]

You could play around with cornerRadius

Or use UIBezierPath

[magic hazel]

already arrived at stackoverflow

yuck all that code is beyond my current paygrade of debt

[manic forum]

^ specifically only works if you're making a circle, not ovals

[magic hazel]

oooh the swift code isn't

eh but i wont go into that yet

i dont understand any of this

maybe i should take like

an obj c course

[manic forum]

no that's the fun part

[radiant idol]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o3t52-ZxFtU&list=PLyjWuFyddLWNsPRqqF3cwGpQ02DhEAb0o
actually taught me a decent bit

it's old but still

[magic hazel]

alr

do these methods still work on modern ios btw

[radiant idol]

Objective-C really hasnt drastically changed in a long time

[magic hazel]

UIKit hasn't either?

[radiant idol]

the last "addition" was in 2019 with objc_direct which was a tiny change in retrospect

[radiant idol]

UIKit has evolved drastically, but the core concepts in the lecture are mostly still the same

[magic hazel]

how far should i go into it

all the videos?

it has some uh

[radiant idol]

they're not directly applicable to tweaks since they're working on apps, so I'd say maybe lecture 8 or 9

[magic hazel]

interesting requirements

[radiant idol]

I just sat and watched them FYI, didnt follow along

[magic hazel]

i am not amazing with OOP

ah

[radiant idol]

so maybe get some popcorn and watch idk

[magic hazel]

how did you learn then

how did you test that knowledge

[radiant idol]

just trial and error

[magic hazel]

lmao

[radiant idol]

not even joking

[magic hazel]

is the cocoa touch shit relevant at all

[radiant idol]

that just refers to UIKit now pretty much

[magic hazel]

oh okay

do i skip the xcode video

[radiant idol]

tbh I don't remember the videos all too well

if you want to sure

[magic hazel]

where does wsl store files

[vivid dew]

under there

[tepid olive]

under where ?

[vivid dew]

[magic hazel]

ERROR: control directory has bad permissions 777 (must be >=0755 and <=0775)
make: *** [/home/jwalr/theos/makefiles/package/deb.mk:70: internal-package] Error 255

weird error on wsl

[hasty ruin]

search that error in this server

it's a pretty descriptive error though

[magic hazel]

Yeah I tried fixing the perms

It didn’t work

I might just switch to Linux

For iOS dev at least

[cloud yacht]

The same clock class is used in both iOS 7 and 16 for sure

Likely older builds too

[orchid fulcrum]

does that mean i have to hook posix_spawn again in the child process, because apparently the launchd spawn mechanism goes something like this
Launchd calls fork/posix_spawn -> the child becomes the generic process called xpcproxy (via xpc messages) -> idk how but that turns into the real process later, the last part is probably where the envs are lost.

tldr: can you clarify what that means

[naive kraken]

launchd -> posix_spawn() -> xpcproxy -> posix_spawn() -> your bin

whereas the latter posix_spawn is called with the setexec flag

(if you hook posix_spawn using instruction replacements you do not need to worry about posix_spawnp, if you don't then you need to reimplement it and interpose it with your reimplementation)

[magic hazel]

Funni

[acoustic imp]

red box

[magic hazel]

indeed

alr ima try using some new headers now

nooo it didnt work

-(void)viewWillAppear {
    %orig;
    UIView *ourView = [[UIView alloc] init];
    ourView.frame = CGRectMake(0, 0, 200, 50);
    ourView.backgroundColor = [UIColor greenColor];
    [self.view addSubview:ourView];
}

%end```

what did i do wrong

[radiant idol]

https://developer.apple.com/documentation/uikit/uiviewcontroller/viewwillappear(_:)?language=objc

look closely at the declaration

[magic hazel]

so it draws the rectangle before it shoud?

when should i inject then

[radiant idol]

no no

look at the declaration

the signature of the method

[magic hazel]

wym

[radiant idol]

void viewWillAppear();
void viewWillAppear(bool animated);

in C++ these would these represent the same or different functions?

[magic hazel]

do i need viewWillAppear(true)

[magic hazel]

diffferent

obviously

[radiant idol]

Right

[magic hazel]

the 2nd wants you to pass in 2 values

[radiant idol]

so in your hook

you have - (void)viewWillAppear

[magic hazel]

-(void)viewWillAppear:(true)

[radiant idol]

No, that's just the syntax of the method

- (void) viewWillAppear:(BOOL) animated

(BOOL) is the argument type

animated is the argument name

[magic hazel]

okay so its just viewWillAppear(true)

?

oh no

right

but i dont want it to be animated

[radiant idol]

%hook SBHomeScreenSpotlightViewController

-(void)viewWillAppear:(BOOL)animated {
    %orig;
    UIView *ourView = [[UIView alloc] init];
    ourView.frame = CGRectMake(0, 0, 200, 50);
    ourView.backgroundColor = [UIColor greenColor];
    [self.view addSubview:ourView];
}

%end

it doesnt matter, you're just overriding the original method

the original method is - (void)viewWillAppear:(BOOL)animated

so you need to match the signature

[magic hazel]

but why didnt i have to do that with the other methods that had that same sorta thing

lemme find

oh

i see

so the bool can be empty

and itll work

[torn oriole]

dingus

[magic hazel]

indeed

that would be me

IT WORKED

LETS GOOOO

W

so many of these custom headers seem a bit iffy tho

i dont know what 99% of them do

like wtf is SBHomeScreenSwitcherModifier.h

or SBIconDragPreviewContaining.h

idek

[radiant idol]

well look at the method names

that may help

[magic hazel]

also what are the "delegate" ones

[radiant idol]

https://developer.apple.com/library/archive/documentation/General/Conceptual/CocoaEncyclopedia/DelegatesandDataSources/DelegatesandDataSources.html

[magic hazel]

so can i use NCNotificationViewControllerDelegate.h to inject into the noiftication centre

[radiant idol]

maybe try hooking NCNotificationViewController instead

[magic hazel]

i didnt see a header file for that

[radiant idol]

https://github.com/search?q=NCNotificationViewController+lang%3Alogos&type=code

[radiant idol]

https://developer.limneos.net/index.php?ios=12.1&framework=UserNotificationsUIKit.framework&header=NCNotificationViewController.h

[magic hazel]

cripes its long

lemme see if i can find a suitable place to inject

oh i can just use viewDidLoad again

oh boy

that is not what i wanted

its doing it on every notification

not on the actual view itself

although i could do some cool shit with that

does quartzcore still exist

apparently so

rounded corners!

[torn oriole]

youre probably making use of the wrong view

[torn oriole]

youre doing it to the view responsible for being the individual notification cells

[magic hazel]

how can itell that

it doesn't seem to specifiy there

[torn oriole]

do you have FLEX

[magic hazel]

no

i probably should install it

ill do that after my lesson

Funni rounded corners

idk why the advice i see is "make a custom swift extention"

when you can literally just use quartzcore

and write a singular line

ourView.layer.cornerRadius = 5;

[radiant idol]

quartzcore is basically just coreanimation now

but dont bother with the naming

[magic hazel]

is there any advantage to writing it like this

    @IBInspectable public var cornerRadius: CGFloat {
        set {
            layer.cornerRadius = newValue
        }
        get {
            return layer.cornerRadius
        }
    }

    public func roundCorners(corners: UIRectCorner, radius: CGFloat) {
        let path = UIBezierPath(roundedRect: bounds, byRoundingCorners: corners, cornerRadii: CGSize(width: radius, height: radius))
        let mask = CAShapeLayer()
        mask.path = path.cgPath
        layer.mask = mask
    }
}

ive seen this online quite a few times

[radiant idol]

not at all

[magic hazel]

LMAO ofc there isn't

i'm starting to like this

it's so fun being able to inject shit into whatever i want

feels like the OS is actually mine

i have an idea

for a tweak

but i need a little more knowledge to do it

[radiant idol]

whats ur idea

[magic hazel]

well it's basically knock off bloom but a singular colour

i wanna try it

but i need to know how to sort the layer so it goes behind the notification, and i need to know how to grab the length and height of each notification

idk how i should do that

-(void)viewDidLoad {
    %orig;
    UIView *ourView = [[UIView alloc] init];
    ourView.frame = CGRectMake(0, 0, 200, 50);
    ourView.backgroundColor = [UIColor greenColor];
    ourView.layer.cornerRadius = 5;
    [self.view insertSubview(ourView :belowSubview: )];
}

%end```

cooked

im so bad at this

lmao

thats definitely wrong

[radiant idol]

try this

%hook NCNotificationViewController

-(void)viewDidLoad {
    %orig;
    UIView *ourView = [[UIView alloc] init];
    ourView.frame = CGRectMake(0, 0, 200, 50);
    ourView.backgroundColor = [UIColor greenColor];
    ourView.layer.cornerRadius = 5;
    [self.view insertSubview:ourView atIndex:0];
}

%end

[magic hazel]

alr

i mean it compiled

i cant test it rn

[radiant idol]

L

[magic hazel]

can i just use @import quartzcore;

instead of #import <QuartzCore/QuartzCore.h>

[magic hazel]

how do i blur the rectangle

i see a method but it's only for 17.0+

so uselsss

[magic hazel]

it worked!

well now i need to be able to do everything else

i need to blur, adapt rect to the size of the notif

just gonna do an approximation

until i can figure out

how to actually do it

lmao i way overshot

i think i got the corner radius close tho

grr this is hard without knowing how long it actually should be

huh

finally

thats the one

itll only work on my phone tho

since it doesn't properly scale to shit

i have this example code, is it correct?

-(void)viewDidLoad {
    %orig;

    // Create the blur effect
    UIBlurEffect *blurEffect = [UIBlurEffect effectWithStyle:UIBlurEffectStyleLight];
    UIVisualEffectView *blurView = [[UIVisualEffectView alloc] initWithEffect:blurEffect];
    blurView.frame = CGRectMake(0, 0, 300, 60);
    blurView.layer.cornerRadius = 20;
    blurView.clipsToBounds = YES; // Ensure rounded corners are respected

    // Add the blurred view to the main view
    [self.view insertSubview:blurView atIndex:0];
}

%end

mmmm no thats not what i wanted

oh well

i got it

lets go

it still not exactly what i want but the effect is correct

does anyone know how to get the dimensions of a notification at runtime?

[magic hazel]

@acoustic imp

im estimating

its a fixed rectangle

i need the actual dimensions

[acoustic imp]

use flex

or jus get it programatically

[magic hazel]

? i can find the exact dimensions w flex, but i want it to adapt

depending on the size

[acoustic imp]

GL

[magic hazel]

where is double ping

lmao

[magic hazel]

is it not eas

cant i just grab the dimensions of the current view

[acoustic imp]

no it should be, jus find a ref to the MTMaterial view and gets its dimentions & radius or wtv

[acoustic imp]

yes

[magic hazel]

would this work

    %orig;
    
    CGRect notificationFrame = self.view.frame;
    CGFloat width = notificationFrame.size.width;
    CGFloat height = notificationFrame.size.height;
}```

[acoustic imp]

looks like it would

[magic hazel]

idk how to send those values off to the next function tho

[acoustic imp]

setFrame?

[magic hazel]

i need it here:

    %orig;
    UIView *ourView = [[UIView alloc] init];
    ourView.frame = CGRectMake(0, 0, width, height);
    ourView.backgroundColor = [[UIColor greenColor] colorWithAlphaComponent:0.7];
    ourView.layer.cornerRadius = 20;

    ourView.layer.shadowColor = [UIColor greenColor].CGColor;
    ourView.layer.shadowOpacity = 0.7;
    ourView.layer.shadowRadius = 15;
    ourView.layer.shadowOffset = CGSizeZero;
    [self.view insertSubview:ourView atIndex:1];
}```

[acoustic imp]

so just get it there?

[magic hazel]

i can't because it doesn't grab the right dimensions

[magic hazel]

thats why im getting it here

[acoustic imp]

so do all this ^ here -> #development message ?

[magic hazel]

i tried that and it didnt work

[acoustic imp]

how so

[magic hazel]

it literally displayed nothing

lol

how do i make global variables

objects*

[acoustic imp]

debug it with flex

jus objc CGFloat width = 0; in the top of the file

[magic hazel]

alr

[acoustic imp]

(idk if u can do th3 = 0 actully)

[magic hazel]

@import QuartzCore;

@interface NCNotificationViewController : UIViewController
@end

CGFloat notificationWidth;
CGFloat notificationHeight;

%hook NCNotificationViewController

-(void)viewDidLayoutSubviews {
    %orig;
    
    notificationWidth = self.view.frame.size.width;

    ourView.layer.shadowRadius = 15;
    ourView.layer.shadowOffset = CGSizeZero;
    [self.view insertSubview:ourView atIndex:1];
}

%end```

[acoustic imp]

yep

oh

does NCNotificationView exist?

[magic hazel]

unsure

[acoustic imp]

use flex rq

[magic hazel]

i dont have flex installed

[acoustic imp]

one sec

it doesnt :/

[magic hazel]

uhhhhhhhhhhh

my device has now frozen up

maybe try that idk

i jus wrote it in dc

@magic hazel

[magic hazel]

im trying to rejailbreak rn

idk what happened

[acoustic imp]

😭

[magic hazel]

dopa isnt v stable on a8x

seems theres a low success rate

[acoustic imp]

rip

[pallid totem]

kfd not dopamine

i assume

[magic hazel]

probably yeah

[acoustic imp]

make sure to let the device boot up fully, ie: connect to wifi and open up an app

[pallid totem]

kfd try to be reliable challenge

[magic hazel]

landa is stable on my phone

[pallid totem]

alfie made it possible

[acoustic imp]

he still has me blocked :/

[pallid totem]

he has half of the server blocked

[magic hazel]

lmao

okay

i rejailbroken

im seeing now

[acoustic imp]

ikr, i made a joke ab him after sm he said and he blocked me...

[magic hazel]

yep

it froze again

why is it freezing

[acoustic imp]

remove ur tweak

ssh in

killall -SEGV SpringBoard

dont quote me on 'SEGV'

[magic hazel]

okay it just went into safe mode

nvm

it just resprun

idk whats happening nl

[acoustic imp]

🤦‍♂️

[magic hazel]

it freezes sits there

then resprings

ill unistall the tweak

but idk why it's freezing

[acoustic imp]

remove/diable all other tweaks to

[acoustic imp]

check logs

cr4shed or krashkop

[magic hazel]

ima just comment out smthing and see if it fixes it, i cannot be assed to install a logger and attempt to extract it that way for such a basic tweak

[acoustic imp]

i mean if u gonna tweak dev might as well

[acoustic imp]

did u try this? ^

[magic hazel]

no i havent yet but i also dont really know what you changed

[acoustic imp]

TLDR: added a prpoperty/referance to ur view on the viewcontroller and instead of storring the width/height just applied/set it

[magic hazel]

okay

i dont entirely understand what that does but alr

im sus it could be this [self viewDidLoad];

[magic hazel]

where do you grab the notif width and height

[acoustic imp]

~~jus install krashkop 😭 🙏 ~~

[acoustic imp]

same spot u do

[magic hazel]

its commented out

[magic hazel]

yeah but then you make another rectangle

self.someTweakPrefix_borderView.frame = CGRectMake(0, 0, notificationWidth, notificationHeight);

[acoustic imp]

bounds are just the h/w with the x/y both 0, its the correct way to get the H/W of a view

[magic hazel]

using those variables

[acoustic imp]

no im setting the frame of the one your alr created

self.someTweakPrefix_borderView is the referance to that view

[acoustic imp]

omg this is the x/y, im dumb

one sec

fixed* 😭

[magic hazel]

yeah it throws an error

[acoustic imp]

what

i probly spelled sm wrong

[magic hazel]

about those exact variables

[acoustic imp]

send it

[magic hazel]

    self.someTweakPrefix_borderView.frame = CGRectMake(0, 0, notificationWidth, notificationHeight);

lmao

[acoustic imp]

why did u change it

jus copy paste what i sent

[magic hazel]

i didnt change shit

i copy pasted

lol

[acoustic imp]

(re copy paste)

CGRectMake(0, 0, notificationWidth, notificationHeight); != CGRectMake(self.view.bounds.size.width, self.view.bounds.size.height, 0, 0);

(ignore the placement)

[magic hazel]

same error

[acoustic imp]

send

[magic hazel]

literally word for word the same

[acoustic imp]

did u re copy paste?

[magic hazel]

yes

oh shit

set self.someTweakPrefix_borderView.frame = CGRectMake(0, 0, notificationWidth, notificationHeight); to self.someTweakPrefix_borderView.frame = CGRectMake(self.view.bounds.size.width, self.view.bounds.size.height, 0, 0);

i hate doing this thru discord

[magic hazel]

it compiled but seems really sketch

lemme test

[acoustic imp]

😭

[magic hazel]

i still dont really understand the code

is the variable you made of type uiview

and then you set its dimensions to that of the notif

and then pass that

[acoustic imp]

yes its defined here

[magic hazel]

into the next function

[acoustic imp]

yes

[magic hazel]

it froze

[magic hazel]

what did you change

[acoustic imp]

added a check for the view

oh no

[radiant idol]

I go away and you’re already teaching him %property

[magic hazel]

lmaoo

[magic hazel]

yep

i have absolutely no idea whats going on

with that part

my code is making my ipad freeze

[acoustic imp]

[radiant idol]

Just add a borderWidth and borderColor on the original view and be done with it

[acoustic imp]

[magic hazel]

huh

i tried to grab the width and length of the og view

[acoustic imp]

he wants some like under notif border not a full border

[radiant idol]

My head hurts too much for this rn

[acoustic imp]

go take a nap

[magic hazel]

^

[acoustic imp]

and drink water

[radiant idol]

I just woke up from a nap

[acoustic imp]

🤦‍♂️

drink some caffine

[magic hazel]

no

it bloody well froze again

its because we're calling viewdid load

you're not supposed to call that function aagin

it's not our function

[acoustic imp]

omg dont do that

[magic hazel]

lmao you had it in your code so did i

[acoustic imp]

i didnt read it all

[magic hazel]

lmao

i claled it because

at least in c++

you need to call the function to do jack

it wont keep going

itll just end operation

[acoustic imp]

dw ab that in logos

[magic hazel]

so itll just continue the program?

[acoustic imp]

%orig takes are of it (idrk rly how it works)

yes

ok i gtg, homework time :/

[magic hazel]

alr

i wish it didnt freeze and i could just uninstall without rebooting twice

it no longer freezes

but it also does not grab the correct values

at least my code doesn't

ill try yours

your code works

i just don't understand it

what is self.view.bounds

lmao

[torn oriole]

the bounds of the view

[magic hazel]

alr thats not too bad

uhh

wtf is this property business

[magic hazel]

idk what this nonatomic strong bs is nor do i know why you seem to call it twice?

also why do you run self.someTweakPrefix_borderView.frame = self.view.bounds;
twice

[torn oriole]

A variable with the 'nonatomic' property means that the variable is not thread safe. This might sound scary, but it just means that the variable can be accessed from multiple threads at the same time.

[magic hazel]

i see

strong

[torn oriole]

🦾

Strong

[magic hazel]

also why do you use "self" in front of everything

[radiant idol]

It’s like “this” in c++

[magic hazel]

do i need it

why am i declaring the property twice, once in the hook, and once in the obj c code

[radiant idol]

Because it’s a new property

Not existing

[radiant idol]

For properties yes

[magic hazel]

it looks like exactly the same property

%property (nonatomic, strong) UIView *ourView;
@property (nonatomic, strong) UIView *ourView;

the only thing that changed was the @ and %

[radiant idol]

The %property is needed if you’re creating a new property

That one didn’t exist originally

[magic hazel]

so this line: @property (nonatomic, strong) UIView *ourView;
is irrelevant

@import QuartzCore;

@interface NCNotificationViewController : UIViewController
@property (nonatomic, strong) UIView *ourView;
@end

%hook NCNotificationViewController
%property (nonatomic, strong) UIView *ourView;
-(void)viewDidLayoutSubviews {
    %orig;
    
    self.ourView.frame = self.view.bounds;
}


-(void)viewDidLoad {
    %orig;
    UIView *ourView = [[UIView alloc] init];
    ourView.frame = self.view.bounds;
    ourView.backgroundColor = [[UIColor greenColor] colorWithAlphaComponent:0.7];
    ourView.layer.cornerRadius = 20;

    ourView.layer.shadowColor = [UIColor greenColor].CGColor;
    ourView.layer.shadowOpacity = 0.7;
    ourView.layer.shadowRadius = 15;
    ourView.layer.shadowOffset = CGSizeZero;
    [self.view insertSubview:ourView atIndex:1];
}

%end```

[radiant idol]

No, it’s needed to compile it

[magic hazel]

so i need to declare every property twice, once outside the hook, and once inside?

[radiant idol]

At first you’re lying to the compiler to say that that property exists, and then you’re adding it yourself to make sure it exists

[magic hazel]

i see

[torn oriole]

i just saw that as "property property" "tweak property" when i was fucking around with tweaks

[radiant idol]

If you’re just using an existing property, you only need to declare it in the interface

If you’re making a new property (this isn’t that prevalent, teslaman just seems to have an obsession with them) you’ll need to do one in the hook and one in the interface

[magic hazel]

okay cool, and why is it a property and not just an object

[radiant idol]

this isn’t that prevalent, teslaman just seems to have an obsession with them

[magic hazel]

also, i seem to run this " self.ourView.frame = self.view.bounds;
" in both functions. if that's the code that grabs the size, then surely i tshould grab zero when i run it again in the second function

[radiant idol]

What

[magic hazel]

    %orig;
    
    self.ourView.frame = self.view.bounds;
}``` and
```-(void)viewDidLoad {
    %orig;
    self.ourView = [[UIView alloc] init];
    self.ourView.frame = self.view.bounds;```

[radiant idol]

See this is where I’ll suggest you to start reading UIKit documentation — in the viewDidLoad the bounds will likely be 0, but in viewDidLayoutSubviews they’ll be defined

[magic hazel]

that i understand

but why do i run it twice

[radiant idol]

You shouldn’t need to

Only have it in viewDidLayoutSubviews

[magic hazel]

so i can just delete that line?

[radiant idol]

.

[magic hazel]

kk

so far this is just a lot to keep track of but i'm wrapping my head around it

i see next in the tutorial we go onto preferences

i think my first tweak will just be to have a glow behind notifs that can be toggled on and off

maybe with options to change the colour

it worked!

[radiant idol]

nice send a screenshot

[magic hazel]

kk

[radiant idol]

Nice

[magic hazel]

Indeed

idk if its bad that im still refering to a lot of the documentation

idk if i should try and memorise all this

[radiant idol]

No not at all

that's encouraged

and please please please look at open source tweaks

not just you specifically, I'm talking about all new devs

[magic hazel]

i know i've trying to but a lot of them are just overwhelming

so much stuff i have absolutely 0 clue what it does

how to i grab the corner offset asw

bounds grabs the bounds thats cool

but it's not a perfect fit since my corner radius

isnt

ahhhh im lost

@implementation EXMRootListController

- (NSArray *)specifiers {
    if (!_specifiers) {
        _specifiers = [self loadSpecifiersFromPlistName:@"Root" target:self];
    }

    return _specifiers;
}

@end```

i don't understand this code

i dont undertsand how to make an on/off siwtch

i read the other gh page

[magic hazel]

i setup a gh repo

idk how to do this preference shit tho

how do i do this but also just have it respring

this notification metho dseems wack

is there a simpler way?

ive used chatgpt to hack somethign together

i dont understand it tho

not even that is working

aight ima take a break

im so lost

YOOOO

IT WORKS

i understand kinda

i dont understand the code

specifically this

    NSUserDefaults *prefs = [[NSUserDefaults alloc] initWithSuiteName:@"com.dingus.TutorialPrefs"];
    testSwitchKey = [prefs objectForKey:@"testSwitchKey"] ? [prefs boolForKey:@"testSwitchKey"] : YES;
}```

UGHHH

i cant get it to respring

grr so much i dont understand

i have absolutely 0 clue what the respring code does

[acoustic imp]

u probly jus need to make it /var/jb/usr/bin/killall or wtv it is

add /var/jb/ to the front of the path

[magic hazel]

@import UIKit;
@import QuartzCore;
#import <spawn.h>

@interface NCNotificationViewController : UIViewController
@property (nonatomic, strong) UIView *ourView;
@end

static BOOL testSwitchKey;

//Preference code, don't understand it yet
static void preferencesChanged() {
    NSUserDefaults *prefs = [[NSUserDefaults alloc] initWithSuiteName:@"com.dingus.TutorialPrefs"];
    testSwitchKey = [prefs objectForKey:@"testSwitchKey"] ? [prefs boolForKey:@"testSwitchKey"] : YES;
}
//Code that searches for a change in preference
%ctor {
    preferencesChanged();
}

//Respring code from Chat-GPT, no idea what it actually does but hopefully it works
extern void respring() {
    NSLog(@"[TutorialPrefs] Respring button pressed");
    pid_t pid;
    int status;
    const char *args[] = { "killall", "-9", "SpringBoard", NULL };
    posix_spawn(&pid, "/usr/bin/killall", NULL, NULL, (char * const *)args, NULL);
    waitpid(pid, &status, 0);
}


%hook NCNotificationViewController
%property (nonatomic, strong) UIView *ourView;
//Grab notification bounds
-(void)viewDidLayoutSubviews {
    %orig;
    self.ourView.frame = self.view.bounds;
}

//Create notification glow and set colour and size
-(void)viewDidLoad {
    %orig;
    //Doesn't run if the switch is off
    if (!testSwitchKey) return;
    //Initilise the property from last function
    self.ourView = [[UIView alloc] init];
    self.ourView.backgroundColor = [[UIColor clearColor] colorWithAlphaComponent:0.7];
    self.ourView.layer.cornerRadius = 20;
    //Code for glow parameters
    self.ourView.layer.shadowColor = [UIColor greenColor].CGColor;
    self.ourView.layer.shadowOpacity = 0.7;
    self.ourView.layer.shadowRadius = 10;
    self.ourView.layer.shadowOffset = CGSizeZero;
    [self.view insertSubview:self.ourView atIndex:0];
}

%end```

how do i do it with obj c highlight shit

[magic hazel]

there we go

idk i might ditch the respring

i have no clue what im doing when it comes to preferences

what if i put respring in %ctor

[radiant idol]

Why

[magic hazel]

i dont know

[radiant idol]

That’ll cause the phone to respring loop

[magic hazel]

ah

i thought so

[radiant idol]

Every time the tweak loads it’ll respring the phone

[magic hazel]

well i have no idea how to get it to work then

ima comment out that respring code for now and try and understand the preference bs

[acoustic imp]

i should make a tweak that randomly resprings u at random times every day

but like

u cant remove it from sileo

[radiant idol]

Bad

[magic hazel]

extern void respring() {
    system("killall -9 SpringBoard");
}

what about that

[acoustic imp]

is that ai

[magic hazel]

yep

all of the respring stuff is

i have no idea how to respring a device

[acoustic imp]

teslaman 2.0:

[radiant idol]

Why do you want to respring the device

[magic hazel]

to update the change to the notification glow toggle

the notification based system is way way over my head

i cannot follow what it is doing whatsoever

[radiant idol]

So you want a button in the settings of the tweak that will cause a respring when pressed?

[magic hazel]

yes

so i can apply the settings

a lot of tweaks do that anyways

[radiant idol]

Right

But you’re adding the respring code in the main tweak right now

You don’t need it there

You need it in the prefs

[acoustic imp]

^

[magic hazel]

what where

what file

[radiant idol]

Go to my github user and look up posix_spawn

[acoustic imp]

(yourtweakprefprefix)rootlistcontroller.m

make some method

[magic hazel]

so in my header file

[acoustic imp]

@radiant idol random question for CC18, yay or nay for doing the like wifi/bt modules to ios 18.0.1(easy and lazy) or copy it from latest

[magic hazel]

so i put it in my header file but when am i supposed to call it

how do i make it call that function when i click the button

[radiant idol]

What

[magic hazel]

maybe itll just work

[acoustic imp]

TLDR one or two

[magic hazel]

nope

ooooh

no i have an idea

what if instead of letting the user do it

i just force it to happen

once you've made a change

bcus i cannot seem to get this button working

i hate preferences

[radiant idol]

i like the first

[acoustic imp]

yay

me too

[radiant idol]

wrong link

[acoustic imp]

?

[radiant idol]

https://github.com/NightwindDev/Preference-Bundle-Example?tab=readme-ov-file#psbuttoncell @magic hazel

[magic hazel]

ive read it

already

the whole thing

multiple times

[radiant idol]

just change MobilePhone to SpringBoard

[dense lily]

make this size

[magic hazel]

does that go within the implementation

[acoustic imp]

yes

[radiant idol]

add these to the top:

#import <spawn.h>
#import <rootless.h>

[granite frigate]

ROOT_PATH is jbroot

til

[radiant idol]

yeah thats newer

well JBROOT_PATH

[magic hazel]

i dont know what any of this means

[acoustic imp]

oh

[radiant idol]

"jbroot" is the roothide version

just ignore

[acoustic imp]

i use the NS one

[radiant idol]

posix_spawn takes in a C string

not an NSString

[acoustic imp]

i lied then

[magic hazel]

well it works

idk why it works

but it does work

[radiant idol]

hence why you use ROOT_PATH instead of ROOT_PATH_NS

@magic hazel dont worry I didnt understand what posix_spawn actually did until like last year

and I started making tweaks in 2021

[acoustic imp]

[magic hazel]

im less concerned about the respring stuff

idgaf what that does

im more concerned abt the preference stuff

[acoustic imp]

rule one, dont

[magic hazel]

i should know

lemme push changes

https://github.com/JWIMaster/tutorial/

its public right

not private

[radiant idol]

yes

[magic hazel]

nice

static void preferencesChanged() {
    NSUserDefaults *prefs = [[NSUserDefaults alloc] initWithSuiteName:@"com.dingus.TutorialPrefs"];
    testSwitchKey = [prefs objectForKey:@"testSwitchKey"] ? [prefs boolForKey:@"testSwitchKey"] : YES;
}

what is this doing

[radiant idol]

NSUserDefaults stores the settings of the tweak

do you know what ternary operators are?

[magic hazel]

no

[acoustic imp]

(boolean value) ? (return1) : (return2);

party

[radiant idol]

bool A = true;
int B = A == true ? 4 : 2;

B will be 4 if A is true and 2 if not

[magic hazel]

what

[acoustic imp]

these always confuse my ap CS principals teacher lol

and code.org :/

[magic hazel]

okay i understand the first line now

its just like a property

or the UIView

a NSUserDefaults called "prefs" is allocated and initialised, with the suite name of com.dingus.TutorialPrefs

[acoustic imp]

finished my LA hw 🙏

[magic hazel]

i might be wrong

[radiant idol]

yes

that's right

[magic hazel]

i still dont quite get that second line

why does it ask for an objectkey

and a boolkey

my object is a bool

[radiant idol]

do you understand this

[magic hazel]

not particularly

idk why theres == or ?

[radiant idol]

that's just the syntax

[magic hazel]

i assume the : means else

[radiant idol]

it can be written like this:

bool A = true;
int B;
if (A == true) {
    B = 4;
} else {
    B = 2;
}

[acoustic imp]

testSwitchKey = [prefs objectForKey:@"testSwitchKey"] ? [prefs boolForKey:@"testSwitchKey"] : YES;```

is jus like  (sorta)

```objc

BOOL testSwitchKey = nil;

if([prefs objectForKey:@"testSwitchKey"]){
  testSwitchKey = [prefs boolForKey:@"testSwitchKey"];
}else{
  testSwitchKey = YES;
}

testSwitchKey = testSwitchKey;

[magic hazel]

LMAO

okay i get that now

but why is there prefs objectForKey:@"testSwitchKey"]){
var = [prefs boolForKey:@"testSwitchKey

[radiant idol]

var is a BOOL not id

[acoustic imp]

ik ik

[torn oriole]

B is 4 if A is true, otherwise it's 2

[acoustic imp]

it should be bool

oopsies

[radiant idol]

we check objectForKey because we want to make sure the user has set some value for testSwitchKey

[magic hazel]

yep

[radiant idol]

if they have set a value, we use the boolForKey

[magic hazel]

okay

so

[radiant idol]

if not, we use the default

[magic hazel]

? is and?

[radiant idol]

whar

[acoustic imp]

huh

[radiant idol]

teslaman v2

I'm telling you

[acoustic imp]

no i like understand tho

no i dont what am i saying

[magic hazel]

im in way over my head 😭

lemme try an dundertsnad

[acoustic imp]

[torn oriole]

That's programming

[magic hazel]

testSwitchKey = [prefs objectForKey:@"testSwitchKey"] ? [prefs boolForKey:@"testSwitchKey"] : YES;

okay so if i have this crrect, this code uses that first part tere about objectforkey purely to detect if the user has or hasnt changed it, and then if that first part is true, and they have changed it, then it sets the boolforkey to be whatever it is the user changed it to

[radiant idol]

testSwitchKey = /* if user has set the setting to some value */ ? /* use the user's setting */ : /* use the default value */;

/* same thing as: */
if (/* user has set the setting to some value */) {
    testSwitchKey = /* use the user's setting */;
} else {
    testSwitchKey = /* use the default value */;
}

[magic hazel]

looks like i got it right

awesome

[acoustic imp]

if testSwitchKey is set from prefs or wtv [prefs objectForKey:@"testSwitchKey"] will return a vlaue, the first part just sees if there is a value, and if there is set that var as the value as a boolean and if not set it as the "default'

[radiant idol]

yea

[magic hazel]

cool now i have to somehow remember all this

i wont but i can just reread this

lmao

ima put comments there

[acoustic imp]

i just copy paste every time, ive learned it over time tho

[radiant idol]

you'll just put it to muscle memory

[magic hazel]

yeah

well

i think i have a functional tweak now

i can enable and disable the glow

and apply it with a respring

[acoustic imp]

good thing to do is type everything out by hand when learning NO COPY PASTE

[magic hazel]

i know

ill be redoing this tweak

yes

i know

but it doesnt matter im learning

[acoustic imp]

wrd

[magic hazel]

i actually didnt think id get this far

[radiant idol]

I think something cool you could then do is make the glow match the icon of the app

[magic hazel]

sounds doable

shut up

well my tweak will be open source and free

so

shush

[radiant idol]

so is velvet2

[magic hazel]

WHAt

i thought it was paid

😭

[radiant idol]

not anymore

[magic hazel]

oh okay

[acoustic imp]

starting out i could never get the one funct on stack overflow to work ~~still havnt to this day bc i gave up 😭 ~~

[magic hazel]

great

NO

nope

delete that

i dont want to cheat lmao

[radiant idol]

ok

[radiant idol]

https://github.com/NightwindDev/MatchingIconLabels

[magic hazel]

blud deletes more messages than he sends

[magic hazel]

awesome

that'll be useful

[radiant idol]

no I sent that for you to see how I did it teslaman lol

[magic hazel]

no

i get that

but im also stealing it

i need an icon colour grabber

idk if that works for notifications tho

[acoustic imp]

wait wtheck

[radiant idol]

yeah you're good you can take it

MIT license

[magic hazel]

im jk i wont actually copy paste ur code i just wanted to take a look

mmm

still way over my head

wait

no i can read most of it

nice

ima make a to-do file

and add that suggestiong

I think something cool you could then do is make the glow match the icon of the app

[acoustic imp]

bro mac os just ate one of my windows i cant find it

[radiant idol]

it was me

I ate it

[magic hazel]

[acoustic imp]

fatty, it had alot of tabs open too

[magic hazel]

LMAO

[acoustic imp]

why did i just find 2 long lost windows 😭

[magic hazel]

okay so ima take a break

so i can let it sit

maybe tmrw or later today ill redo the tweak

from scratch

new repo

see if i remember anything

i will probably have to keep refering back to my current tweak

which isn't great (i think)

[magic hazel]

hopefully ill be able to not do that eventually

itll come w practice ig

what do i have to make to get the dev role (purple is kinda ugly)

[radiant idol]

a decently big tweak

[magic hazel]

bootlooper

./j

-(void)viewDidLoad {
    %orig;
    //Doesn't run if the switch is off
    if (!testSwitchKey) {
        return;
    }
    else {
    //Initilise the property from last function
    self.ourView = [[UIView alloc] init];
    self.ourView.backgroundColor = [[UIColor clearColor] colorWithAlphaComponent:0.7];
    self.ourView.layer.cornerRadius = 20;
    //Code for glow parameters
    self.ourView.layer.shadowColor = [UIColor greenColor].CGColor;
    self.ourView.layer.shadowOpacity = 0.7;
    self.ourView.layer.shadowRadius = 10;
    self.ourView.layer.shadowOffset = CGSizeZero;
    [self.view insertSubview:self.ourView atIndex:0];
    }
}```

is this if else statement okay

just tryna clean some stuff up

[radiant idol]

you dont need the else

you can just have the if

once you return, the rest of the code will be ignored

[magic hazel]

im gonna add an elif later

for toggling icon colour

[acoustic imp]

hot take, i dont like doing it like this

[radiant idol]

why

[acoustic imp]

idk, jus feels weird

[radiant idol]

how so

[acoustic imp]

idk

like let the func breath and end gracefully, not just RETURN

idk

[radiant idol]

pov the assembly does just that

ret

[acoustic imp]

well it easier to read

ha

[radiant idol]

not really

[acoustic imp]

if else > if return

[radiant idol]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[magic hazel]

maybe i should try remaking it rn

i kinda want to

but im a bit tired

this is the most fun ive had writing any code

probably because i can actually get help when shit goes wrong

• its small proj

easy to iterate

[kind yew]

hey i need some help with something, i've got a jailbroken iphone 11 with dopamine, ios 16.3.1, and i was trying to get kernel read working through kfd, but whenever i run the exploit it crashes my phone, i've been debugging it a bit with lldb and i found it crashed whenever it got to this line. I've also tried using opa334's fork but got the same result. Any help would be appreciated.

That fork doesn’t work on ios 16

[kind yew]

is there one that works on ios 16 or should i just try taking it directly from dopamine?

[sonic totem]

Wait, are you using IOSurface method or not? Otherwise it should work actually

[kind yew]

nope

[sonic totem]

Nonetheless, stock kfd will work for you

The hardcoded addresses for your device can be obtained with https://github.com/opa334/XPF

[kind yew]

so just updating the offsets should fix it?

[sonic totem]

https://github.com/felix-pb/kfd/blob/main/kfd/libkfd/info/dynamic_info.h this stuff

[kind yew]

aight ill give that a try later

thx

[sonic totem]

No problem

does anyone here have a paid apple dev account

[magic hazel]

rewrote my code mostly from memory

i'm pretty happy with what i remembered

@import UIKit;
@import QuartzCore;    

@interface NCNotificationViewController : UIViewController
@property (nonatomic, strong) UIView *notificationView;
@end

//Main Hook
%hook NCNotificationViewController
%property (nonatomic, strong) UIView *notificationView;

//Obtain notification dimensions
-(void)viewDidLayoutSubviews {
    %orig
    self.notificationView.frame = self.view.bounds;
}

//Inject glow behind each notification
-(void)viewDidLoad {
    %orig
    //Create a rectangle that matches the shape of the notification
    self.notificationView = [[UIView alloc] init];
    self.notificationView.backgroundColor = [UIColor clearColor]
    self.notificationView.cornerRadius = 20;

    //Make and outer edge glow for the final effect
    self.notificationView.shadowColor = [UIColor greenColor].CGColor;
    self.notificationView.shadowOpacity = 0.7;
    self.notificationView.shadowRadius = 10;
    self.notificationView.shadowOffset = CGSizeZero;
    [self.view insertSubview:self.notificationView atIndex:0];
}

%end```

time to make it more complex

[radiant idol]

the QuartzCore import is unncessary btw

nowadays

[magic hazel]

how so

i use corner radius

[radiant idol]

it was integrated into UIKit iirc

[magic hazel]

oh okay

[radiant idol]

remove it and you'll see

[magic hazel]

https://github.com/JWIMaster/NotificationGlow2.0

new repo

[magic hazel]

how do i make it compile for rootless by default

instead of manually specifying via the command line each time i build

[radiant idol]

add THEOS_PACKAGE_SCHEME=rootless to the makefile

anywhere

but I would personally not do this, it goes against conventions

[magic hazel]

got it

[radiant idol]

but if it's easier then sure you can

[magic hazel]

i'm not gonna be compiling for rootful either way

not at this stage at least

i have no rootful devices to test on

i'd only compile for rootful once i have a big enough tweak that i'm happy publishing to my own repo

[radiant idol]

I see

[magic hazel]

i got it to work on wsl btw

you need to add a mount command to your wsl file

ill send it in a sec in case anyone else needs it

[automount]
options="metadata"

go to the root directory and add it via sudo nano /etc/wsl.conf

you need to use sudo or it won't save properly

[slim bramble]

you can add export THEOS_PACKAGE_SCHEME=rootless to your bashrc

[radiant idol]

thats even worse

dont do that 😭

[magic hazel]

i need quartzcore

for shadow stuff

[radiant idol]

no

everything in quartzcore should be in uikit now

[magic hazel]

what am i doing wrong then

[radiant idol]

show the error

[magic hazel]

^
Tweak.x:28:24: error: property 'shadowOpacity' not found on object of type 'UIView *'
self.notificationView.shadowOpacity = 0.7;
^
Tweak.x:29:24: error: property 'shadowRadius' not found on object of type 'UIView *'
self.notificationView.shadowRadius = 10;
^
Tweak.x:30:24: error: property 'shadowOffset' not found on object of type 'UIView *'
self.notificationView.shadowOffset = CGSizeZero;

i have nearly identical code

[radiant idol]

self.notificationView.layer.

[magic hazel]

OH

knew i forgot something

ty

what does layer actually specify?

[slim bramble]

Never said it was any good 👍

[radiant idol]

https://developer.apple.com/documentation/uikit/uiview/layer?language=objc

[magic hazel]

huh im missing a ";" somwhere

i cant see it though

if only VSCode could actually show me

[orchid fulcrum]

Error logs in the terminal should tell it

[magic hazel]

can't use 2.0

grrr

i ahve to redo the whole thing

fixed

new gh

[magic hazel]

so only core animation layers can have those properties applied?

also yeah i didnt need quartzcore

cripes chatgpt says grabbing the colour is very hard

- (UIColor *)mostProminentColorOfImage:(UIImage *)image {
    // Resize the image to reduce processing time
    CGSize newSize = CGSizeMake(40, 40); // Small size for faster processing
    UIGraphicsBeginImageContextWithOptions(newSize, YES, 0);

    UIGraphicsEndImageContext();

    CGImageRef cgImage = resizedImage.CGImage;
    CFDataRef imageData = CGDataProviderCopyData(CGImageGetDataProvider(cgImage));

        for (int y = 0; y < newSize.height; y++) {
            int pixelIndex = ((newSize.width * y) + x) * 4;

        return prominentColor;
    }

    return nil;
}

i have no idea what most of this means

[radiant idol]

I did it in one of thje tweaks

matchingiconlabels

[magic hazel]

does it work for any UIImage

[radiant idol]

yes

[magic hazel]

k lemme see

hmm

seems a bit off

wallet is the worst offender

how did it grab orange 😭

[radiant idol]

well its the average color

[magic hazel]

hmmm

[radiant idol]

not the dominant color

[magic hazel]

i dont understand your code yet

but ima try and learn

i assume the app icon is grabbed from a different place for notifications

[radiant idol]

[magic hazel]

ohboy

where was that link to the notificatoinviewcontroller header

i cant see it

[radiant idol]

abcdefg

[magic hazel]

nothing about a uiimage

okay

moving on

chatgpt gave me this

%hook NCNotificationListCell

- (void)layoutSubviews {
    %orig;

    // Attempt to directly access the image view if it's a private property
    UIImageView *iconImageView = [self valueForKey:@"_iconImageView"]; // May not exist, depending on iOS version

    if (!iconImageView) {
        // If the direct access fails, search the subviews for an UIImageView
        for (UIView *subview in self.subviews) {
            if ([subview isKindOfClass:[UIImageView class]]) {
                iconImageView = (UIImageView *)subview;
                break;
            }
        }
    }

    if (iconImageView && [iconImageView isKindOfClass:[UIImageView class]]) {
        UIImage *iconImage = iconImageView.image;
        if (iconImage) {
            UIColor *prominentColor = [self mostProminentColorOfImage:iconImage];
            NSLog(@"Most Prominent Colour: %@", prominentColor);
        }
    }
}

%end

[radiant idol]

Headers don’t contain objc types

They all just say id

[magic hazel]

well i have no idea what any of this codes means lmaoo

i probably have to start learning more objc

@import UIKit;
@import QuartzCore;    

@interface NCNotificationViewController : UIViewController
@property (nonatomic, strong) UIView *notificationView;
@end

static BOOL enableGlow;

//Create a preference file that contains a BOOL value from the on/off switch
static void preferencesChanged() {
    NSUserDefaults *prefs = [[NSUserDefaults alloc] initWithSuiteName:@"com.jwi.NotificationGlow2Prefs"];
    enableGlow = [prefs objectForKey:@"enableGlow"] ? [prefs boolForKey:@"enableGlow"] : YES;
}

//Constantly check if any preference has changed
%ctor {
    preferencesChanged();
}

//Main Hook
%hook NCNotificationViewController
%property (nonatomic, strong) UIView *notificationView;

//Obtain notification dimensions
-(void)viewDidLayoutSubviews {
    %orig;
    self.notificationView.frame = self.view.bounds;
}

//Inject glow behind each notification
-(void)viewDidLoad {
    %orig;
    if (!enableGlow) {
        return;
    }
    //Create a rectangle that matches the shape of the notification
    self.notificationView = [[UIView alloc] init];
    self.notificationView.backgroundColor = [UIColor clearColor];
    self.notificationView.layer.cornerRadius = 20;

    //Make and outer edge glow for the final effect
    self.notificationView.layer.shadowColor = [UIColor greenColor].CGColor;
    self.notificationView.layer.shadowOpacity = 0.7;
    self.notificationView.layer.shadowRadius = 10;
    self.notificationView.layer.shadowOffset = CGSizeZero;
    [self.view insertSubview:self.notificationView atIndex:0];
}

%end

got the pref code working again

havent done the respring stuff yet but

ima see if i can understand your notif code

i seem to be getting a better hang of this

it wont wok

bruh

lemme try without prefs

huh

nothing

nvm i fixed it

[orchid fulcrum]

didnt read all the messages but if you need average color of app icon function this is pretty good (or so i remember)

[kind yew]

i ended up getting the offsets from https://github.com/Lrdsnow/kfd_offsets but same thing happens

[magic hazel]

wher can i get a rootless version of flexing

[sonic totem]

What do the panic logs say

[orchid fulcrum]

if you trust you can use this :p

[magic hazel]

i'm not sure how to install a dylib manually

[orchid fulcrum]

oh sorry, i dont have a deb package (you can use the dylib via tools like trollfools or opainject, or create a deb package from it but idrk how to do it)

[radiant idol]

https://github.com/PoomSmart/FLEXing/releases/tag/1.5.0

[acoustic imp]

neteskos >

[magic hazel]

how do you use flexing

i dont see a setting for it

nor an app

[pallid totem]

so

[magic hazel]

so how do you use it

[radiant idol]

you hold on the screen with 3 fingers

[faint timber]

theres this thing called a README

[magic hazel]

ty

man am i lost
