- embedding-shape 10mo ago> plus it can void your warranty Unless you happen to live in a jurisdiction that care more about users than companies, like the EU. The manufacturer would have to prove that the new custom firmware is actually the cause of the damage, otherwise they need to fulfill the warranty guarantee regardless of what firmware you run.
- goodpoint 10mo agoGood luck proving that changing the firmware is not voiding a warranty.
- embedding-shape 10mo ago> Good luck proving that changing the firmware is not voiding a warranty. You're thinking about it the wrong way around. The manufacturer has to prove that the custom firmware is the reason it broke, you don't have to prove anything. Username not accurate.

- gempir 10mo agoInstalling Valetudo stops any firmeware updates forever from the OEM. [1] I wouldn't consider it a hack. It's an alternative way to run your vacuum, with yes potentially less features if the OEM makes a lot of future updates, but Valetudo also comes with their own set of updates.
