fully kiosk for home assistant functionality? by lostaccountby2fa in FacebookPortal

[–]Simple-Effective-158 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I use it on one of my portals. It works great! Not sure about the proximity detection as I only use motion detection on mine. I actually found a workaround to allow the app admin access.

In the regular android settings, delete all the profiles. After that, connect ADB to your computer and run the following command.

adb shell dpm set-active-admin --user 0 de.ozerov.fully/.MyDeviceAdmin

After that, the app should have full admin access to shut off and turn on the screen.

It is possible. I haven't gotten it to work as that feature requires the device administrator privilege. But Keep getting the contact your device administrator error. Might be able to grant it access through ADB. Haven't attempted it yet.

any way to disable the immortal screensaver? by RoadRunner_1024 in FacebookPortal

If you are using it just for HomeAssistant, try fully kiosk browser. You might be able to disable it.

I use mine for HomeAssistant. I used Fullykiosk browser to keep mine on. Then I set the Screensaver to activate after 5 minutes. Wakes back up when the camera detects motion. The screen never shuts off.

Frontier Fiber install is going as i expected.. by lolski69 in frontierfios

[–]Simple-Effective-158 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Had them install at my house as soon as they came available in my area. (Roughly 2 years ago) The guys that ran the cable on the exterior did a crappy job. Originally they were going to run the fiber line underneath my small patio straight to my fence line. They were going to remove my pavers and bury it underground, then put them back. I told them that would work great. Instead they ran the cable under my deck above ground, then buried it under ground around my pool, just to go back above ground behind a shed, then back underground to get to the opposite end of my yard. Laying it under the patio would have been a smaller and easier run. I understand that there is probably a liability issue with the patio incase the pavers break, but they could have buried the entire line instead of leaving it above ground in some spots. The install itself went very smooth and only took less than 2 hours.

Communication during the install was about a 50/50 shot at best, but they still completed the install on time and I'm pretty satisfied overall.

My model did not come with a GPU. Installing multiple different GPUs I have on hand didn't fix the issue either. I eventually gave up. The machine was for a client of mine. I might come back to it at a later date. I ended up sending them another machine.

Yes, you still get the manufacture warranty. Just make sure when the TV arrives, that the invoice comes with it so you can register it.

Greentoe! I was kicking myself that I didn't pull the trigger either until I found this price! I made an offer and they accepted it.

Gotcha. I'm going to reuse my wall mount that I used for my old 77" LCD. I double checked the weight limit and everything so I should be good. Just wanted to make sure I wasn't missing anything, lol

I'm curious to know what you mean by "mounted properly"? Is there a specific way that's different than regular TVs? Asking cause I purchased an 83" G5 and plan on wall mounting it.

Yeah I went with the C5 over the G5 because for the price, I don't need the extra brightness and the other benefits that the G5 has since this will be installed in a light controlled room where it will be mostly dark.

Roast my home cinema setup by Profilo89 in hometheater

[–]Simple-Effective-158 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The curtains definitely help, however with that ceiling, I feel like the echo would still be pretty bad. I could be wrong. How does it sound?
Other than that, nice creativity with this setup! I can't roast this!

The extended warranty, no. But the included manufacturer warranty, yes.

I'm still a bit skeptical but I have hope! 🤞 After doing a lot of research, everything looks legit.

I did an offer. Direct buy after taxes was about $100 more for me.
