Looking for an advice #7

Closed dredkin closed 2 years ago

Hello, looking for an advice here! I have a Nespresso Expert&Milk machine with Bluetooth. In order to use your code I have to get an authorization token. The problem is that official Nespresso application is banned in Russia, and AFAICS to get that token you MUST run an official app at least once. Earlier I managed to control my machine with an official app downloaded from some third-party server, but now this old version shows "Upgrade is needed" dialog and the new official version downloaded from apkpure just refuses to install: I guess because of my country too. SO, any advice appreciated: How can I run this version or maybe get auth token without an official app? I've installed nrf Connect but cant see anything like auth token in the logs

Sorry show this only now. indeed nrfconnect won't let you get the auth code, you really need the official apps.

Why not try a free external vpn to get the apps?

Just let me know, why do a coffe apps is banned in russia? WTF is the risk?

Thank for the answer! Yes Nesrpesso app is banned (Stupid Russian Law forbids to send "personal data" abroad). But I've already managed to install it registering a new Google account from Europe (over VPN)..

For everybody who wants to do it:

  1. Establish a VPN to any European Country
  2. Create new gmail account
  3. Check that it is registered to a European Country,
  4. Add this account to your Android phone.
  5. Install the app.
