Messing around with the USB Gadget API

Ok, while I'm waiting for my Pinephone Pro to arrive, I wanted to get a headstart on this project by rooting my android:

I wanted to share what I've done so far to set up my environment, because it took a while to get Android where I can start playing with function/configfs. What I want is to poke around with python's functionfs module, since I will be using tha...

When you mark text on Lens, and click the three dot menu, a new item shows up "copy to computer". then you choose which computer (probably the ones synced using Chrome) and it copies the text...

Get UFS version info on non-root android phone.

So recently OnePlus 12R was launched and it came with two variants
