@lupyuen what I did was very easy. I tried to RE the .map but I didn't get far. I assume that I will need to do a good searx search and gather information on this. BTW I didn't use the listed Risc-v type but a three letter version that seemed to be compatible with the BL602. The obscure extensions don't seem to matter.

@lupyuen I inquired about what was left of the RE effort and I was directed to bl602-re-master as the remaining portion.

@lupyuen I'm an old man at 29. These college students keep talking about using VMs to RE malware. It's like an elevator full of vibrators. It's funny on many different levels.

@lupyuen I got sdk_app_ble_sync.elf mostly to C code. It would likely not take much work on my end to get it to work. I have the source for the android app that is associated with it. I have no code to submit, I don't know how to github, I learned more about RE as I'm using different tools now. It is much different than malware RE and optimizing binaries that have the DRM trash.

@lupyuen Sorry, my brain hit a kernel panic. One of the elf's in that app. I only had 3 errors.

@PawelK @lupyuen I don't understand what you are conveying with this statement.

@Pixificial I have updated on several different devices that I installed Arch Linux on. They bricked hard. It has taken time for me to get more comfortable with using pacman on Manjaro on a few different devices. I have yet to have one of them brick.

Debian and Ubuntu brick too. I have experienced it with these two about 7 times over the years. 3 or 4 were LUKS and it took about 96 hours to recover the first time. If Arch Linux would only have a garage package manager like apt, they could likely be recovered post brick.

@lupyuen I feel like an idiot rn. I reversed engineered some blobs in the sdk into nearly perfect C for the BL602. Am I missing something?

@Pixificial I would not recommend Arch Linux unless you have the newest hardware and need the newest version of a program(without obtaining the source and making) . This is the strength of Arch Linux. Arch is really good at bricking on updates.

@Pixificial I would recommend Ubuntu simply because it has been the one of the best build platforms I've used over the past decade. Before anyone starts talking Arch elite at me, I love Gentoo and I have installed it the proper way many times.

@lucifargundam English is a bastard language that is full of pretentious rules.

@lucifargundam it's not very common to state it like this. A question is a statement much like a ping is a transmission.

@lucifargundam A question is by definition, an interogerative statement.

Research is going well. What do researchers, children and this interogerative statement have in common?
