Most importantly, Merlin is not a must-use nor an upgrade to Asuswrt. And generally, if you choose to use Merlin, you’re on your own in getting support since Asus won’t help if you get into trouble.

• You can use it to update and downgrade the device, fixing the device facing bootloop issue or any software issue.
• It still receiving regular patch updates and Major upgrades.
• The -j 4 part implies be four simultaneous threads/connections.
• The process of flashing the fastboot ROM on your Nothing Phone 1 and restoring the stock NothingOS software is quite easy.

You can even take advantage of your VPN’s smartDNS features to unblock Netflix, Voot, or popular cable channels like USA Network. Despite only two antennas, the range doesn’t suffer much. ASUS claims this model can cover homes up to 3,000 ft2 but in real-world settings it’s probably more suitable for 2,400 square feet and smaller. The hardware is very similar to its sibling AX58U but you actually get a quad-core 1.5Ghz instead of the less powerful triple-core model in the 58U. The Asus RT-AX3000 is the best value of the new line, because it offers fantastic performance at an acceptable (sub-$200) price point. You get a capable triple-core CPU clocked at 1.5Ghz, 512MB of RAM and USB 3.2 ports.

Remember it, as you can do it every few days to keep your code base fresh and up-to-date. While the SDK contains lots of different things– the two tools you are most interested in for building Android are adb and fastboot, located in the /platform-tools directory. It is difficult to say how much experience is necessary to follow these instructions. While this guide is certainly not for the very very very uninitiated, these steps shouldn’t require a PhD in software development either. Some readers will have no difficulty and breeze through the steps easily.
