From the project
OpenPin: use your Humane Ai Pin again. Installable in a few clicks & without any ADB certs!
OpenPin is an open-source project which lets you use your Ai Pin after Humane bricked them. You can install it in a few clicks & without any ADB certs!
Please see OpenPin.org for installation and usage instructions.
If you order the PCB with the USB-port already soldered (as in the instructions below) you do NOT need to buy the 'Micro-USB Port' part.
You will also need soldering tools and a 3D printer, depending on how much you choose to do yourself (versus using a service).
