The short version

What changed, and why it matters

This commit removes leftover debugging code from the Keystone 3 firmware. The most notable change is that in production builds, the device's debug UART output is now replaced with harmless '-' characters instead of potentially leaking real data. Other changes remove hard-coded test values and re-enable a normal boot-version check that had been bypassed. These are cleanup fixes that reduce the chance of sensitive information leaking through debug interfaces or test code being active in production.

Recommended action

Treat as a hardening/cleanup commit. Verify that production builds no longer emit real data over UART0, that the boot-version check is active in release firmware, and that no other debug/test overrides remain in production code paths. Review CI/build flags to ensure BUILD_PRODUCTION and COMPILE_SIMULATOR are set correctly for release images.

Security signals we found

01

Production UART output changed from raw buffer contents to placeholder '-' character, reducing risk of sensitive data leakage over debug interface

02

Hard-coded fake display/battery percentage value removed from status bar logic

03

Boot version mismatch check re-enabled after being disabled by commented-out code

04

Hard-coded test UR string and parse call removed from simulator entry point

05

Debug printf statements removed from simulator QR-code parsing path
