Welcome to our repository for reverse engineering and rooting of the Xiaomi Smart Home Devices. We provide you methods how to root your device without opening it or breaking the warranty seal (on your own risk).
The documentation of the devices (photos, datasheets, uart logs, etc) was moved to a new repo dustcloud-documentation
Please take a look at the Dustcloud Wiki, which also contains instructions on how to root and flash your device: (https://github.com/dgiese/dustcloud/wiki)
The content of the presentation differs from event to event. If you want to get an overview of the topics I am talking about, you find the overview here: Overview over all topics in presentations

Yes, there is a telegram channel.
If you do not want to use telegram, you can use the Matrix.to channel
or our IRC-Channel #dustcloudproject on Freenode, which is bridged to the matrix channel.
In theory you can contact me via twitter.
I am communicating announcements over all channels.
Please inform yourself in the forums and with the howtos before you post in this channel. Otherwise your message is very likely to be ignored.

IoT will very likely become a very important topic in the future. If you like to know more about IoT security, you can visit me at Northeastern University in Boston, US. Please contact me.
