Question to anyone using Rm-hacks
Could anyone that has installed Rm-hacks ( https://github.com/mb1986/rm-hacks ) tell me if they include options to turn off zoom and touch gestures? I guessed not because there's not mention of this on the page but I wanted to be sure before upgrading everything. Thanks.

Privacy on RM2
Using the image file to upgrade a tablet, use remarkable-update or RCU.

ReMarkable announced a new CEO
Also, I've used remarkable-update to perform every firmware update on all three of my tablets. You can't use it if you can't SSH into the tablet to modify the update.conf file in the first place, so if a tablet is upgraded to a version where dropbear (the SSH server) isn't running, it's "game over" for that tablet. The same goes for RCU, which just added firmware updating as a feature in the last week or so ... no SSH, no RCU.

Full factory reset
You're not being paranoid! What you described in your post was exactly right: do a factory reset, then overwrite both boot partitions via ddvk/remarkable-update (apply an upgrade twice)!

Downgrade Firmware?
Hi, there. Sorry if this has already been asked, but has anyone been able to successfully downgrade their firmware in order to use some of the cool third-party apps out there? I'm running 3.1x and I'd like to use this script to downgrade to 2.5, but I'm scared I'll brick my device. Any advice?

I really want to use Toltec...
Is there anyway I can by revert back to version 2.15.1.1189? I tried that guide to change the firmware, but for some reason it says "Error checking the update." when tapping "Check for updates". Even though I've exactly made what was said in the readme and I didn't make mistakes in the IPs. I'd appreciate any help!

Any possibility to get back the ddvk hack button functionality in v3?
You can have both using the switch.sh script to flip between partitions configured for 2.15 and 3.x but you can't use the same notebook. See here for latest on ddvk for 3.x.
