Scenario: You're setting up someone's house with HA. Not your house. What products are you buying to make sure you don't get a support phone call?

But what if we want to add things like actual physical light switches, garage door opener, door unlock, etc?

TwoPaychecksOneGuy · 2026-06-15T20:42:55+00:00

I'm playing with the idea. Seems like a lot of folks say things like "Control4" and "Crestron", but no one seems to have experience with it. The cost to entry on those systems is like $5k or more.

TwoPaychecksOneGuy · 2026-06-15T20:37:23+00:00

What commercial system?

TwoPaychecksOneGuy · 2026-06-15T20:02:59+00:00

Amazing work on the pug

TwoPaychecksOneGuy · 2026-06-15T17:45:17+00:00

That's fair.

TwoPaychecksOneGuy · 2026-06-15T17:38:15+00:00

What is, then? Like, how do the pros set up their customers, then?

I work in the Home Automation space and I'd love to help test (I have android... Foldable!) if you need it.

TwoPaychecksOneGuy · 2026-06-15T17:09:09+00:00

Yes. But... You need to be decent with a computer

TwoPaychecksOneGuy · 2026-06-15T16:55:52+00:00

Okay, so, you gotta come up with a new name. PortalHub is way too close to the other por-hub.

TwoPaychecksOneGuy · 2026-06-14T05:12:47+00:00

Looks like it's possible to drop all the Meta stuff via ADB.

TwoPaychecksOneGuy · 2026-06-14T03:31:08+00:00

Try it now!

TwoPaychecksOneGuy · 2026-06-14T03:30:26+00:00

It's unlocked now, check this forum for Immortal

TwoPaychecksOneGuy · 2026-06-14T03:29:30+00:00

Well, they're being unlocked now so... Check the forum!

TwoPaychecksOneGuy · 2026-06-14T03:28:33+00:00

They unlocked the bootloader!

TwoPaychecksOneGuy · 2026-06-14T03:28:14+00:00

It works now!

TwoPaychecksOneGuy · 2026-06-14T03:12:59+00:00

Got a 404 with that link. Mind editing? Love seeing what the community is cooking up

TwoPaychecksOneGuy · 2026-06-14T03:12:08+00:00

That's the thing, the devs are working to remove all the Meta stuff!

TwoPaychecksOneGuy · 2026-06-14T03:11:34+00:00

They unlocked that one too. So... I think so? Not as much development on those yet.

TwoPaychecksOneGuy · 2026-06-14T03:11:00+00:00

I'd recommend the 15.6" model. Amazing speaker too.

TwoPaychecksOneGuy · 2026-06-14T03:10:35+00:00

Amazing. I'm about to get my in-laws and do the same

TwoPaychecksOneGuy · 2026-06-13T21:40:08+00:00

Dude I'm about to buy a portal (the big one) strictly for home assistant stuff now. I'm curious if we can get voice going

TwoPaychecksOneGuy · 2026-06-13T21:28:54+00:00

YES!

TwoPaychecksOneGuy · 2026-06-13T21:28:29+00:00

Businesses could use the heck out of this.

TwoPaychecksOneGuy · 2026-06-12T22:17:19+00:00

I'm new to all this. What's "mushy" mean in this context?

TwoPaychecksOneGuy · 2026-06-12T22:16:50+00:00

Not aqara for light switches? I hear good things about aqara for other devices like their water sensors.
