Trifo Robot Vacuums without an app

Trifo Robotics seems to have gone down under. This is my documentation on restoring functionality. This page is at the moment primarily focused on the Trifo Max model (V1.1).

Edit: the apps are now working again. This research will still be ongoing to create another way of accessing the device. This could be used to create a homeassistant plugin that controls the robot.

I found this thread after discovery my vaccuum did not have a working app anymore. This started research into accessing the robot software in another way.

Goal

The main goal of this repo is to restore recreate the functionality the app had in some way (For example planning weekly cleaning sessions etc.)

Ways of achieving goals:

Flash dumping

The EMMC chip could be desoldered and read. This could give a readable filesystem where more information could be extracted. Atm this seems the most fruitful.

SSH server

Somehow finding a shell through the publickey login?

ZEROMQ ZMTP

There seems to be some form of an MQTT server running. I am unfamiliar with ZeroMQ ZMTP. Atm i have an client which returns some gibberish i dont understand. This server seems to need a password of some kind
