Ask HN: How do I run Android 15 on a system with Andr 12 vendors?

Hacker News - Sun, 08/02/2026 - 2:36am

Hi HN, I'm trying to Flash a new OS onto my old smartphone that was provided by my college.. I removed the MDM softwares that come pre installed using adb so im good to go but there are some problems im facing ,

I want to use a higher android version (currently on android 12) , my device is fully VNDK compliant and supports project treble. Since there is no actual custom ROM for my specific device i need to use GSIs (generic suystem images) I found one GSI (CrDroid GSI) that should work fully.. According to AOSP and project treble any version of android should work on my device even if the system vendor is stuck with android 12. But practically you can only go like 2 versions ahead before things start breaking. i want to use android 15 but its ourt of reach. Ive asked several AIs for this too and they just say "Deal with it" , I mean not wrong but is there any work around?? (If you want to know HOW GSIs does this then im more than happy to explain in comments)

Thanks!

Show HN: Rotating torus in terminal (but with kitty graphics protocol)

Hacker News - Sun, 08/02/2026 - 2:18am

Hi HN,

I'm taking Computer Graphics @ Stanford this summer and wanted to express some very simple concepts I had in mind. That's why I wrote a rotating torus in C. Going from writing a ray-tracer that works in Blender to pure C with no dependencies feels relaxing. Wanted to try Kitty Graphics Protocol on the way, rendering images in terminal felt cool.

Open to comments and suggestions.

Guardian Security - Sun, 08/02/2026 - 2:00am

Security lapse leaves sensitive information and contact details of 51 government officials exposed for 40 hours

The public body in charge of the UK’s state investments has been pushed to improve its internal security after a data breach left “high-level management information” publicly accessible for nearly two days.

UK Government Investments (UKGI), the agency that manages the taxpayers’ interest in a swathe of companies including Channel 4 and the Post Office, said the security failure also left more than 50 government officials’ personal details exposed for nearly 40 hours.
