Devlog 3: Stuck in debuging hell

I’m sorry yall that i didnt make any devlogs about this but i taught this was kinda boring and nothing to write about but after last devlog i found out that the my registration api wasnt fully finished and i needed to generate more keys after the user enters the code from the sms and the registration itself starts but for that we needed to use signals cryptography lib called libsignal so i tried that but the latest version of libsignal had a newer type of elf hash that android 4.x didnt support so i tried using an older version of libsignal but that still didnt work cause it used a few instructions that newer android versions introduced so i tried binary patching in the missing instructions but that still didnt work so i decided the only viable solution was to fork libsignal to try to manually backport everything and thats where im stuck now in debugging hell trying to manually backport and replace the api calls that it uses with the older android versions and its been like 9 hours of trying to do this and still nothing so im kinda tired trying to do this but im wishing that i will finally fix everything and could move onto making that actual app itself rather then then trying to make libsignal work
Thank you for reading this super long devlog!
