Okay, so, I wanted to mess around with the magic link feature on a non-Android device. You know, just to see if I could get it to work. It was a bit of a head-scratcher at first, but I finally cracked it.
First off, I had to figure out what kind of device I was dealing with. I did some digging around the web and found a handy list of user agent strings. A user agent, that’s basically a piece of text that tells the website what kind of browser and device you’re using. Pretty simple, right? I picked a user agent that made it look like I was on an Android device, even though I wasn’t.
Next, I found this cool open-source project on GitHub. It was an eye blink detector for Android. It uses the device’s camera to detect when you blink. I thought, “Hey, maybe I can use this to trigger the magic link somehow.”
Then, I remembered something about Magisk Hide. It’s a tool that lets you hide root access from apps. I read somewhere that you could use it to spoof your device’s signature. So, I thought maybe I could make my non-Android device look like a RedMagic phone, you know, a gaming phone. Those usually have some fancy features.
I started messing around with Magisk Hide. It got a little complicated. I spent an hour searching for a way to get the RedMagic device signature or maybe the modified code. But I found nothing. So I decided to try another way. I looked for ways to upgrade the RedMagic device to the newest OS. I don’t know why I thought this was useful but I got stuck at this point.
So, I took a step back and thought about it some more. I remembered that different carriers have different network bands. So, I checked the connectivity bands for different RedMagic devices like the RedMagic 3, 3S, and 5G on their official website. Maybe there was a way to make my device seem like it was on a compatible network.
After some trial and error, I finally got it to work! It wasn’t easy, and I definitely hit some roadblocks along the way. The whole thing felt like a puzzle. But in the end, I managed to get that magic link working on my non-Android device.
- Tried using a different user agent to mimic an Android device.
- Explored an eye blink detector project on GitHub.
- Investigated Magisk Hide for signature spoofing to appear as a RedMagic device.
- Researched RedMagic OS updates and connectivity bands.
- Tried different carriers.
It was a fun little experiment. And hey, who knows, maybe this will be useful for someone else out there trying to do the same thing.
