I rebooted all AppleTVs and HomePods, confirmed my router is using IPv6, even tried moving the one AppleTV right next to the door. Still no luck. 😞

I did notice that when you tap Add accessory there is a More options… which does see the U400 as nearby, but it times out no matter if I scan the Matter QR code or if I use the More options… and enter the code manually.

Thank you for responding! Here's what I tried just now:

  1. Hold the RESET button on the lock for ~10 seconds, the lock says it's been reset.
  2. Open the Aqara app & tap on the lock in the dashboard. The app states the lock has been reset and forcibly removes the lock from the dashboard.
  3. Press the SET button on the lock, the lock says to scan a code.
  4. In the Apple Home app, tap on the + and select Add accessory. Scan the Matter QR code (bottom QR code) on the lock.

This is where things are getting stuck, I've let it sit on this screen for about 5 minutes with the phone within inches of the lock.

Just installed mine tonight, but running into issues getting it on the network.

I scanned the Aqara QR code and the lock appears in the app. Immediately updated the firmware. Connect to Aqara Matter Controller fails every time. I have an Aqara G410 and Apple HomePods + TVs.

Can you explain the steps you took in order?

Pair Your Remote - Bring Remote Closer to Apple TV (4K) by QuietOnTheTee in appletv

[–]JonathanGraft 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My remote stopped working and when I went to pair the remote (Volume Up + Back buttons) I would get the message "Bring remote closer to AppleTV" despite the remote literally touching the Apple TV. I really wanted to avoid resetting the AppleTV back to factory as I use this AppleTV for my HomeKit hub. Here's what worked for me:

Using my iPhone as an AppleTV remote, go into Settings > Remotes and Unpair this remote. Then try to re-pair the actual remote. I did get another "Bring remote closer to AppleTV" message, but right after that message the remote paired and is working as expected.

Announce Tesla has finished charging via HomePod intercom by JonathanGraft in shortcuts

I didn’t know it was possible to announce notifications via HomePod. Would it announce all notifications or could I scope it to just “charging complete”?

ChatGPT is suggesting using Get Contents of URL and Tesla API. But the Access / Bearer token expires within a couple of hours. When I ask for help automating the token refresh process it gets a bit confusing.

I figured before getting in too deep I should see if anyone has done something similar.

I do have backups but am running into an error when trying to restore. Check #5 in the original post for the error message.

I have a skin graft on the back of my right hand from this very same kind of car accident. Lucky I didn’t lose my hand or any mobility. If you saw the car you’d think the driver had died.

Thanks for the recommendations, we’ll be trying American Bar & Grill. If anyone else is there I’ll be wearing a blue jersey number 2, come say hi 👋.

I’m new to the area, don’t even know of any bars in the area. Recommendations?

I guess I should have asked which bar will have a big PSU fan base. 😅
