- Comment on Manufacturer issues remote kill command to disable smart vacuum after engineer blocks it from collecting data — user revives it with custom hardware and Python scripts to run offline 2 weeks ago:
The mentioning of Valetudo should be more at the top to make people aware of the existing alternatives.
My aged Roborock S5 suddenly stopped working a year ago and only cleaned a very small segment making it effectively useless. Since I knew that data is exchanged with the manufacturer I suspected them to actively prevent the device from working properly to make me buy a new one. Thanks to Valetudo the device is working back again just fine. Meaning there never was a hardware (or software) failure, but a remote issue.

Runs quite well with WINE using CnCnet.

Thank you. Claiming always resulted in an error, but adding it directly to the cart worked out.
