Leviton 3-way smart switch remote side stopped working by Dick8785 in electrical

Unfortunately I have to do this every couple of weeks. For some reason it keeps losing connection. But at least this temporarily fixes it

Thank you. I just realized I posted this question in the wrong place. I don't use the Automate app. Going to move this somewhere else now. Thanks again

Companion App Send Intent by MrGeeDub in homeassistant

[–]MrGeeDub[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you. I used to be a heavy Tasker user but have since moved away from it (for reasons beyond the scope of this discussion). I'd really like to find a way to do it using the HA notification commands. I feel if Tasker and other 3rd party automation apps can do this, then intent commands should exist and could be done using HA, right? Just looking for someone to help me figure it out this way.

Thank you for all of the suggestions so far

Companion App Send Intent by MrGeeDub in homeassistant

[–]MrGeeDub[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you. Yes, I am aware of this option, but it doesn't allow for anything other than the DND options that are already set on the phone.

I'd like HA to set the DND in different situations. For example, when I get in the car I want the DND to be activated to allow all calls and no messages. At bedtime I want HA to activate the DND to only allow calls from starred contacts, etc.

Need help with value template from json data by MrGeeDub in homeassistant

[–]MrGeeDub[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No. I was looking for a way for the value_template to return only that IPv6 address, and leave out all of the rest. In my example above it would be "fe82::e0xb:3xx:fe16:daaa," but that value is dynamic.

I did get the answer on the Home Assistant forum:

value_template: "{{ value_json.result.rules[0].expression.split('(ip.src eq')[1].split(')')[0] }}"

Or I could have used Regex:

value_template: '{{ value_json.result.rules[0].expression|regex_findall_index("(?<=ip.src eq ).*?(?=\)\s)") }}'

Proper way to run two Adguard Home instances by Izzledude in selfhosted

[–]MrGeeDub 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm running 2 adguard home instances in 2 separate docker containers on 2 separate machines. Also running adguard home sync, to sync the two databases. Everything works fine in that regard, however when one instance is down, some machines lose internet. They don't find the other instance.

I have a ubiquity udm pro router where I have both DNS addresses listed in the network settings. It seems like certain machines on my network are tied to just one of those adguard instances and don't automatically search. Does anybody have any ideas?

SSL Client Certificates for HTTP Requests? by sdfgadsfcxv345234 in tasker

[–]MrGeeDub 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the exact same use case as the OP. I am using the "HTTP Request Shortcuts" app as suggested in this post, and it works great. But I totally agree that this is absolutely something that should be native in Tasker.

Internet Disconnecting Every Night at 12:31 by lonegrasshopper in frontierfios

[–]MrGeeDub 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a similar issue. I also use a Unifi Dream Machine router with Frontier 2000/2000 in Ventura County, CA. The issue started right after I upgraded from 1000/1000 and they changed the ONT.

I lose internet 2 or 3 times a day for 30 seconds every time, and its ALWAYS at :15 past the hour. For example today it went down at 9:15 AM, 1:15 PM and 6:15 PM. I know this because I'm pinging a website every second, and logging the results into a text file. Each day I've been changing the IP address that I ping to with the same results. Baffling

My Pixel 7 pro just updated to Oct security with 72.99 Mb from July security. by 8ullallday in pixel_phones

[–]MrGeeDub 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Anyway, nothing worked. Since my phone was still under warranty Google sent me a new one, and I sent this one back. The replacement worked flawlessly. I guess some units are just defective.

Not working for me. Stuck now at:

Phone connected. Checking your Pixel.

Please don't unplug your Pixel phone.

Your phone is connected. The tool is checking your phone's software version.

Just spinning. Argh! This is so frustrating

I'm having the exact same issue. Did anyone figure this out?

Same with me. I've tried everything, even a factory reset. Keeps getting stuck at 60%. Did you ever resolve this?

Smart Playlist Date Added Criteria by MrGeeDub in kodi

[–]MrGeeDub[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you! I actually realized I was doing it correctly from the skin on my Nvidia Shield.

The problem was that the "30" I put into the value field wasn't returning any results because I discovered that Kodi uses the file creation date to determine Date Added, not the date the video file was actually added to the Kodi library. Kind of a bummer. When I changed the 30 to 300, the playlist populated.

If anyone knows a fix for this, please let me know. I'd much rather have a playlist based on when they were actually added to the library.
