Comment on Canon requires an account to transfer images from your camera. Forces you to sign up using Chrome.

  Magic Lantern is awesome!

  Unfortunately, it’s for higher-end cameras, not my old point-and-shoot cameras. And it doesn’t magically give your device GPS for geotagging images :(

  The app was fine. The enshittification of the app is not.

    Can you not just find and use an old version and disable updates for it?

      Yes, another user already confirmed that the old version still works. I’ve done the same with the old GoPro app.

        I have an old Gear VR and a Samsung S3. I don’t believe there is any way to use it today. It wants to connect to Facebook to log in, but their auth token has expired.

  Jailbreaking locks you out of banking apps.

    I don’t think people are out here doing their banking on their Canon DSLRs

      Don’t you gotta jailbreak your phone as well? Otherwise it will require the chrome browser

        No, installing magiclantern on a jailbroken camera means you don’t need to do the Canon sign in bullshit at all.

    Maybe on Apple (?), bur GrapheneOS supports my banking apps just fine. The only thing missing is Google Pay, which I don’t use anyways

      How? Having an unlocked bootloader or root breaks Safety Net, which disables many apps. You need an unlocked bootloader to install custom ROMs.

      Magisck used to be a workaround, but Google has been sabotaging it at the OS and hardware layers, so it wasn’t working the last time I tried a few years ago.

        Pixels can have custom AVB keys so the bootloader can be locked after installing gOS.

    This is a useless comment.

    Says the person who randomly brought up phones when the other person was talking about a camera jailbreak.

    And isn’t that just exactly what they count on?
