MIMTEndO is a musical instrument made from a combination of obsolete smartphones. It is part of a research project aimed at exploring how, by combining several old and broken devices and using high-level web technologies, it is possible to create new interactive interfaces in order to extend their lifespan.

I am also super happy to bring this trophy home here in Centrale lyon and #LIRIS and to the @limitesnumeriques team :)

Bellow is a small description of the project. I was busy correcting a few last bugs and soldering the last pieces last week, but now I will take the time to make a nice video to show you how it works.

The best way is to make sure that it's not locked or try to find the previous owner :) (same strategy than the people in Shenzen in the article sent by Aurelien)

But this is a real (and frustrating) problem ! It could be great to have at least a way to contact the previous owners via their google account since that information is still inside the phone.

Unfortunately no solution either, I spent some time trying to bypass FRP on two Android phones I have that are blocked, watching some videos of breaches exploitations (by changing keyboard language / using accessibility tools to access the parameters, things like that). It works on some android versions but you have a good chance that the breach has been patched...
