Can I update the Dock Firmware manually?

Yes, you need to compile or download a new dock firmware image. Then use curl to push the firmware to the dock with the following command:

curl -F "[email protected]" http://<Dock IP>/update

You can also use ESPHome-Flasher to update the firmware via USB.

How can I change the timezone or set the time manually?

remote-os v2

The default system timezone is set to UTC. The timezone for the app can be set in the file /boot/timezone. This file is on the FAT boot partition and accessible from the mounted SD card.

The content of /boot/timezone is a single line containing the Linux TZ name.
See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_tz_database_time_zones for a list of valid TZ database names. They can also be retrieved with timedatectl list-timezones. Examples:

Europe/Copenhagen
Asia/Hong_Kong
America/Vancouver

remote-os < 2.0.0

At the moment you can only set the timezone or current time in a ssh shell with the following commands:

Time zone:
- List timezones: timedatectl list-timezones
- Set timezone example: timedatectl set-timezone America/Los_Angeles
Date and time:
- Show current time: timedatectl
- Set date and time: timedatectl set-time YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS
  Example: timedatectl set-time '2020-09-08 03:19:00'
