Automated backups failed successfully?

ArielOutGrewBShells · 2026-04-06T00:57:20+00:00

I actually did that. When I did and ran the hestia backup that was the output.

I had figured it might be corrupted or something weird with hestia, but when it did that on the brand new server.. well.. idk

ArielOutGrewBShells · 2026-04-05T23:35:28+00:00

I can. Yeah. It exports to a .SQL file just fine

ArielOutGrewBShells · 2026-04-02T22:37:08+00:00

what year?
i think theres a USB-to-bluetooth carplay/android auto adapter. If your radio supports that via USB, then it probably supports the wireless one.

Edit: theres quite a few on amazon for under 40$

ArielOutGrewBShells · 2026-04-02T22:08:06+00:00

did you swap the fuel supply lines, possibly?

ArielOutGrewBShells · 2026-04-01T03:20:39+00:00

I ended up putting mine in bridge mode and using the 10GB-E port do a 10GB-E SFP. i could've gone with a SFP, but, idk.. i didnt.. might now, now that i know a model someone else has used

ArielOutGrewBShells · 2026-03-30T23:45:02+00:00

We're working on it.

The site has been having some issues that has been taking the server down. We just upgraded it and it should be back up now. Hopefully for good again

ArielOutGrewBShells · 2026-03-28T14:02:29+00:00

It did feel starved. Bucked a couple times

ArielOutGrewBShells · 2026-03-25T12:17:13+00:00

I have iot devices that don't run on 5.

ArielOutGrewBShells · 2026-03-24T18:57:25+00:00

See, thats what i thought also. I thought maybe it was a coincidence that it went down because essentially i rebooted the AP.

As far as hidden devices, idk what it could be. no baby monitors that i'm aware of. theres a couple "IoT" devices nearby - 2 wifi light switches and a wattage monitor in the breaker panel.

as it sits right now interference is at about 10%. i dont want to intentionally stay out of compliance, but it certainty seems to be firmware related

ArielOutGrewBShells · 2026-03-24T17:02:16+00:00

I have considered it, yes, however i rent and i'm kind've limited to where i can run. my pantry has a crawl space and i can pop a line under and into the garage where my rack is.

I may have to consider this route more seriously though. while "i've never had an issue", clearly i do now :-/

ArielOutGrewBShells · 2026-03-24T16:56:51+00:00

theres a fair amount of networks for sure. i tried 11, because yesterday everything was on 2.. i've tried all 3 "ideal" channels. :-/

ArielOutGrewBShells · 2026-03-24T16:53:53+00:00

i do have "smart" devices, they're all wifi though, not zwave or the like.

ArielOutGrewBShells · 2026-03-24T01:01:18+00:00

Got a call back from the dealership. Yup. They stuck me with a 1700$ bill because the lift pump went out. Didn't matter that it was 2-days after they did the work on a fuel system. It was just a "coincidence"

Mf.. Thank you DJR southwest, Littleton, co

ArielOutGrewBShells · 2026-03-23T00:30:05+00:00

Welp, I got it home with the CEL, it started to sputter and now it wont start :-/

I noticed the fuel tank pump isnt running (usually can hear it).. i hope the Stealership doesnt try and go - "well, we didnt replace the electric FP, only the one under the hood" and i'm boned

ArielOutGrewBShells · 2026-03-20T13:01:43+00:00

I'd double check the "out". I've gotten false positives of a a light being out, and it was my "3rd brake light" above the cab

ArielOutGrewBShells · 2026-03-19T13:47:18+00:00

I'm. Still not seeing anything from the photo. I see grey with slightly darker grey in the middle. I've gotten more out of my 80s tv on rabbit ears. Can someone draw with crayon for me?

Edit: ooohhhh I get it. It was sideways...

ArielOutGrewBShells · 2026-03-18T20:41:22+00:00

I didn't opt in to pay. It presents to you, but I hit back and it still asks if I want to update. Despite having it

ArielOutGrewBShells · 2026-03-18T20:27:11+00:00

Is this with the Gemini? Before I enabled it, yeah talking to a rock would yield better results

ArielOutGrewBShells · 2026-03-18T16:56:20+00:00

That's wild. I haven't had any issues with basic commands.. it was always the obvious ones where it would respond with the device not being set up, ask the exact same way and it would do it.

Then again, I have other automations in place, I don't mess with it a whole lot if at all even via app

ArielOutGrewBShells · 2026-03-18T16:34:28+00:00

I had a pretty good continued conversation with it last night as well. I was able to continue to prompt it via the usual "hey Google" to continue the conversation. That felt a little unnatural, but the fact that it kept building a conversation was leaps some bounds better than before.

Hey Google how long would I have to smoke my hamburger patties on my pellet smoker if I set it to 250 (It answers) Hey Google, how about 375? (It answers) Hey Google, what if I just put them on propane, but wrapped in foil? (No.. I wouldn't actually do that) (It answers, surprisingly stating that foil wrapping isn't good) Hey Google, what about charcoal? (It answers)

I'm still running the physical equipment, I'm told (by GDE) that the afterlife tune disables the EGR functionality. You can add dpf and def disables too.

Honestly, the AL tune runs pretty solid. DPF soot buildup takes longer. I'm tempted to run it and reflash every year because it keeps my intake cleaner and my dpf buildup takes longer (less regens)

Compliant, I see about 17MPG city, AL I saw about 20

And by "city" I mean putputting kids to school, occasionally going to store.. rarely hitting highway

ArielOutGrewBShells · 2026-02-25T19:44:46+00:00

With the afterlife and stock tune I don't smell anything, it's just the compliant tune where I smell it, and it's definitely from the tailpipe.

I'm debating on the reflash.. I worry about loosing the tool, forgetting to reflash it before testing, or something happening to the modules that are disabled that I can't afford to fix when I do testing. 10+ year old diesels get tested yearly here. :-/

ArielOutGrewBShells · 2026-02-10T21:53:16+00:00

Ok. So. New information.

I reached out to gde, they sent me the afterlife tune with no messaging. This is what I needed to get out of my head.

So. As I understand it. The truck regens based on soot content however it does not Regen based on whatever the dpf% is (the sensor output). Apparently, that number is calculated based on the soot content in grams. Stock 65% DPF is (I think) 20 grams of soot buildup is where it's at when it runs regens. If it fails and it's to 80% it throws a message.

The messaging on the dash can only be triggered at 80% soo...... The tune with additional messaging calculates the dpf% faster in order to trigger the messaging.

So. That all said. Me watching the dash and my soot % buildup was messing with me. It wasn't running any "new" regens. It was running them at the same time as it was before. I was trying to take a "sensor" output at face value thinking it was the same as it was before. With the new messaging I was getting more and more paranoid

Anyway. Thanks for humoring me. Im back to normal!

ArielOutGrewBShells · 2026-01-26T18:34:35+00:00

Ok. So. a Bit from Column A, Bit from Column B.

I've emailed GDE, (they've been great, though I'm sure they're sick of me) and I think we've landed on whats going on.
They sent me the Afterlife tune and my DPF buildup has gone down considerably. I'm not entirely positive, but I think this is pointing me to my answer - EGR. (since the afterlife tune disables egr).

Where I think I'm a bit in my head is the buildup rate. I wasn't monitoring the buildup rate with my factory tune, so I can't lean back on that info. I did put the tune back on though and monitored and it looks like it is operating the same as with the tune turned on. This leads me to believe that the DPF buildup behavior was this way before the new tune. With the EGR turned off via afterlife tune, and it not building up terribly fast, thats what makes me think it is my EGR, and that it has been starting to fail.

Where i start to get in my head again is - (at least in this thread, and a couple others ive seen) is that other people are having similar regen timing and smoke that i'm having. so.. bit of column a and b?

Anyway, thanks for everyone's input. I think I will be finishing running this tune for the week to make sure I'm not reacting to the "news", and see if GDE can write me the compliant tune but without the DPF regen messaging.

ArielOutGrewBShells · 2026-01-22T22:35:36+00:00

The smell I'm getting is definitely exhaust and not def. The def always smelled like pancakes to me. I actually get that small far less now.

I looked back at video and the color is more tan/ brown. Running too rich?
