Can we finally get a multilingual unlock for the S21 Amlogic FR‑1.12 firmware?

Yo, what’s the holdup on the multilingual unlock for the S21 Amlogic FR-1.12 fw? It feels like we’ve been waiting forever for someone to crack that open. Anyone got a line on a patch or know if the devs are actually pushing this soon?

I don't think anyone's actively working on that, but I've seen some developers experimenting with custom firmwares that support multi-language support for the S21. Maybe we could revive the project if enough people expressed interest and were willing to contribute?

I'm not holding out much hope for a new firmware release at this point, the Amlogic FR-1.12 is already pretty outdated. If you're looking for multilingual support, have you tried the OpenELEC firmware or the LibreELEC fork with an Amlogic build?

Honestly, I've been waiting on this for ages since the language lock is super annoying for setting up rigs. Hopefully, someone drops a bypass or a patch soon.

I think that's a great idea, would be super helpful for folks outside of the US who need to access their devices in their native language. Has anyone looked into reaching out to the devs directly to see if they'd consider implementing a multilingual unlock in a future update? I'd be happy to help with any outreach or testing if it gets greenlit.

Honestly, I thought the devs ghosted us on that firmware version. The language blobs are usually a nightmare to de-obfuscate, but hopefully someone drops a flashable

Bro, the devs are still fighting the encryption on the FR‑1.12 build. If they actually manage to extract the language files without a bricked

Man, I've been checking the repo every day hoping the devs finally cracked the encryption on this one. Hopefully we see a custom flashable zip drop soon because navigating the default menus is a total pain.

Second this, the current translation is pretty mid tbh. C'mon devs, drop a patch so we can finally use this thing properly.

Honestly, I thought someone would’ve cracked this by now. The last beta build I tried was buggy af when I forced the locale, so I rolled back. Guess we’re still waiting on the devs to drop a proper patch.
