I have been like this for a month with this workaround, and yeah, I backup with Google backups and rooted Swiftbackup nightly 👍🏻

If the customer support of my ISP doesn’t even know what CGNAT is, but AI knows, I am actually troubled whether this is a good move or not.

Yep, loops to heat up the CPU, in combination with fast charge to make it hot quicker.

CPU loses contact with the board or something like that making it not able to read modem, efs, and whatever is the responsible to transmit data through the USB port (charging works normally, even fast charge), it needs a reflow or reballing to fix this for good, but technicians nearby are… Simply put, thieves lmao.

So I’d rather keep doing this until the phone dies (the workaround makes it work for an undefined amount of time, which can be hours, days or almost a week) or change the motherboard myself.

I got the idea along with ChatGPT when a user in telegram told me that he got USB data transfers working again (in order to escape from MIUI once again) by heating up the SOC with a hairdryer, yes, that worked for me too to fix all above, thus I decided to create a software solution in the meantime 😅

I was expecting a joke comment mentioning Driver.

I am disappointed I had to scroll this far to find something like that.

And there is me using a 2019 (dying) device which I heat up with a termux command to get it back in working state 😁

For the curious the device is a Poco F2 Pro, known for IMEI and charging flex issues, the termux command I use to bring alive my IMEI, Wifi and USB data transfers is:

for i in $(seq 1 32); do sh -c ‘while :; do a=$((a+1)); done’ & done; for i in $(seq 1 32); do yes > /dev/null & done

This paired with fast charge will heat the SOC and make it work like the 1st day without an issue lol.

I have never had a Motorola smartphone… But Canta is a thing :)

Yeah, don’t get me wrong, I can see value of getting a VPS, especially if you are gonna be using it for some other projects, I have had a DO instance in the past and I thinkered with WG back then BTW, but if it is only for remote accessing your home LAN, I don’t feel like paying for it tbh, especially when some users get it for free (public IPv4) and it feels even dumber for me since I have a fully working IPv6 setup!

BTW my ISP is funny, no firewall at all with it, I almost fainted when I noticed everyone could access my self hosted services with the IPv6 address and I did nothing regarding ports or whatsoever… They were fully accessible once I fired up the projects! I think I read an article about this subject… But I can’t recall when or where… I had to manually set up a firewall, which tbh, you always should do and it is especially easy to do in a Synology NAS.

Anyway, back to the mesh VPN part, if they enshitify so be it, but in the meantime we still can benefit from it.

I mainly use Tailscale (and Zerotier) to access my CGNATED LAN, headscale will require me to pay a subscription for a VPS wouldn’t it?

I really envy the guys who say only use them because they’re lazy to open ports or want a more secure approach, I use them because I NEED them lol.

If (when?) Tailscale enshitify I’ll stick with ZT a bit until it goes the same way lol, I started using it 1st, I don’t know if ZT came before Tailscale though.
