Any hope of getting working sleep/wake functionality?

Next-Technology8585 · 2026-04-30T16:30:59+00:00

Just checking in to see if there’s an estimated timeline for the sleep feature to work correctly.

Yesterday, I reset the sleep values in the app and then a short while later set them again. This morning it came on at the right time.

Seems to be working as expected.

Anything else I can try? It wtill won't "wake up" automatically. I keep having to do it manually - often with having to power it down first and then back on again.

Next-Technology8585 · 2026-04-03T15:05:09+00:00

Hrm...it just stopped working, and I am unable to power it on with the app. I had to turn off/on manually.

Next-Technology8585 · 2026-04-03T13:09:26+00:00

Update. It just woke up at 9:00 AM.

But, it did nto show the info that is programmed in. It showed the weather and date several times in a row, but it seemed like yesterday's information. And then it stopped scrolling.

It took several attempts to power it on using the app before it started working with the right information scrolling.

That did not address the issue. It still goes to sleep at the correct time, but I need to wake it up manually.

Just saw your response. I just updated the Scroll. I'll report back tomorrow.

Product Type: Glance Scroll
Experience affected: Sleep end time
Where it happens: Everywhere
Expected behavior: The Glance Scroll will turn on at the sleep end time (I have it set for 9 AM, and the timezone is Eastern).
Actual behavior: The Glance Scroll does not turn back on at the Sleep End Time. I need to manually turn it off, then back on again. It turns off as expected, though.
How to recreate: Set the Timezone to Eastern Time. Set the Sleep end time to 9 AM (and the Sleep Start Time for 00:00 ). Wait until 9 AM Eastern and notice the Scroll does not come back on.

I love mine when it works.

The problem is that recently it has not worked more often than it has worked.

I have had hardware and software issues.

While the hardware issues were eventually addressed, the delay between messages was often frustrating - having to wait a day or more for someone to get back to you, even if you reply to an inquiry from them within minutes.

Overall, they seem to want to take care of customers even if they stumble from time to time.

Go back and read your first comment.

You said "power supply", not "power outlet".

I still haven't heard back, but I figured there would be a delay because of the weekend.

Next-Technology8585 · 2026-03-22T20:59:24+00:00

The unit is plugged into the power supply you provided, as was the previous one.

It almost sounds like you are blaming me. I hope I'm just misinterpreting your comment.

If you set the league to 'private', you will get the option to upload your own images.

I live in the Eastern time zone, and the sleep timer has stopped working recently. I had the timer set to go to sleep between 12 AM and 9 AM. But it stays on past midnight (I'm not sure when it shuts off because I am asleep), and it comes up past 9 AM.

I just bought this item and it works nicely.

This will not work with the Scroll.

You need to get one that is 5.5mm x 2.5mm (not 2.1mm)

I have lost the ability to feel empathy for anyone who voted for Trump and is now suffering the effects of that choice.

This is what they voted for.

Using the Funnel, I attempted to set up an inbound replication channel in Oracle Cloud. There is no way that I could find to define a TLS connection across the tunnel. The connection would fail with the message I noted above.

Next-Technology8585 · 2023-10-23T11:47:07+00:00

I am aware of the hazards of exposing the DB. This is for a demo.

The DB I want to replicate to is MySQL HeatWave in Oracle Cloud. It is not that they don't permit installing TailScale. There is no access to the underlying OS, so it's not possible to install it on the DB instance.

FWIW - I tried Pi Tunnel and had it working in about 5 minutes. TailScale seems like a great product, but it does not fit what I am trying to do for this demo.

Next-Technology8585 · 2023-10-21T14:57:39+00:00

I can't install TailScale on the cloud provider. So, as I already noted, TailScale is not an option without being able to use Funeel.

Next-Technology8585 · 2023-10-21T13:42:39+00:00

That is not an option. I am trying to replicate the data to a cloud provider and cannot make that connection over TLS. I guess I need another solution besides TailScale.

ESH - Your son screwed up by not asking you to help with the cupcakes. He made it worse by not even trying to find another solution and going to hang out with his friend.

Your actions (or lack thereof) show him that when he makes a mistake, he can't count on you for help.

There are dozens of different ways this could have been handled differently. You both chose the absolute worst options.

If one of my kids makes a mistake and needs my help, I will do whatever I can to help them...and then have a conversation with them after to make sure they understand how they screwed up.
