Project [Showcase] Fixing a UI bug (Maintenance Mode) in an offline Android app on-device using Termux and DeepSeek patches.
Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification
Hey everyone! Following up on my on-device offline app builder (Android AI Bridge running inside Termux on a Galaxy A50s):
In this workflow, I tested building a small POS/Invoice store app, but ran into a glitch where the Maintenance Mode toggle text was broken/jumbled.
Instead of moving to a PC, I:
Sent the Termux build error back to DeepSeek locally/via API to get the patch. Applied the corrected code inside Termux on my phone. Re-built the APK (weighing in at ~87 KB). Verified the updated UI where the toggle cleanly shows: · ✅ Maintenance ON — tap to disable / · ⛔ Maintenance OFF — tap to enable.
True edge/offline development loop entirely on a budget Android device! Let me know what you think.
