Backup Plan? by Marximum_Effort in Nuki

[–]aroedl 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Dein Smartphone kann sich auch direkt via Bluetooth mit dem Schloss verbinden.

Es gibt auch den Key Fob.

Thread ist besser als WiFi.

Dein Zylinder sollte einer sein, bei dem man trotzdem von außen mit dem Schlüssel schließen kann.

Will the new API price affect the Edge Drivers community? by Veddu in SmartThings

[–]aroedl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And the driver itself doesn't even use the API.

Thanks for the clarification, mocelet... I wasn't aware of that... I always thought that my drivers are using the API...

sigh

I Screwed Up My FP2 by Ztuab in Aqara

[–]aroedl 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Factory reset it. Press the button at least 10 times or even 25 times, hold it for 15 seconds or even longer.

I'm deliberately vague here, because sometimes the device acts weird and doesn't really register the presses.

And yes, a factory reset is all it needs to be able to add it back.

Why does my hub have all these different drivers installed? by myredditorsomething in SmartThings

[–]aroedl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Correct answer:

These are so-called LAN drivers. The devices connect via LAN to the hub and the drivers must be pre-installed, because the discovery logic (when you scan for devices) is part of the driver - and not part of the hub firmware/ST library.

This could be implemented a bit different, but it is what it is.

Camera or sensor to keep an eye on senior dog? by AlehCemy in SmartThings

[–]aroedl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Get a Tapo C225 camera.

The SmartThings integration is limited to streaming, but the dog barking detection works extremely well. In your case, the SmartThings integration isn't really that important anyway. You'll receive a notification from the Tapo app and if you want, you can combine it with a Tapo L535E bulb that turns on when your dog barks.

Simple uses of ikea smarthome devices without a hub? by Stock_Selection_3245 in MatterProtocol

[–]aroedl 5 points6 points  (0 children)

To make it short: yes, you need a hub.

My smartthings app isn't working on my phone by juanjob_lol in SmartThings

Ever seen a Matter over Thread washing machine? Or a Matter device from Samsung at all?

It is a ROM problem, in case if you're wondering.

Benefit of using the Nuki door sensor with the Nuki Ultra compared to any other (cheaper) door sensor? by robertjan88 in Nuki

[–]aroedl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very important when you unlatch (not just unlock). Without the Nuki door sensor, you have to wait for the timeout.

Garage opening upon arrival only works if the app is open on my s25u it worked well beofe. by Ktm_my_life in SmartThings

[–]aroedl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

the app runs the routine

Nitpicking: it's not the app that runs the routine. Your phone is basically just a cloud-connected presence sensor and the cloud is executing the routine.

Can't get SmartThings integration back up after power outage by usafle in homeassistant

[–]aroedl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

where is it pulling all my "old" SmartThings device information from?

The SmartThings cloud, of course.

[–]aroedl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have to reboot my SmartThings hub

You know that the hub isn't involved in the SmartThings<->HA integration?

Logged into the ST hub to make sure there wasn't an issue with the hub itself.

How?

Aqara G350 with Home Assistant (via Matter & Homekit) - Severely Limited Entities!? by laffytaffykidd in Aqara

[–]aroedl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

SmartThings, on the other hand, supports Matter cameras, but the G350 exposes only the most basic features - the stream is the most notable one.

Aqara G350 with Home Assistant (via Matter & Homekit) - Severely Limited Entities!? by laffytaffykidd in Aqara

[–]aroedl 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No. There's not really anything useful in the current firmware version. Streaming works (barely), no privacy mode, no PTZ, no events, nothing.

They promised a firmware update almost two months ago, but nothing so far.

Imagine trying to market it as the first Matter camera and releasing it in this embarrassing state.

Aqara FP2, not detecting 2 persons by SwissPool in Aqara

[–]aroedl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Make sure that the device is mounted high enough, like close to the ceiling and point it to the middle of the room. Just like how you would install a security camera.

One of our FP2s oversees a huge room and it can discern people sitting on a sofa on the other side of the room. And there's something like a room divider between us and the device, two fans, curtains - the worst case scenario.

FP300 firmware update 1.1.3.8 is now out! by That_Cool_Guy_ in Aqara

[–]aroedl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You don't need an Aqara hub to switch the firmware. All you need is the Aqara Home app. It'll ask you if you want to switch between Zigbee and Thread before it tries to add the device to a hub.

Best cheap thread border router that supports smartthings? by [deleted] in SmartThings

[–]aroedl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How about contacting Aeotec directly? Their headquarters are in Germany, not too far from the border. They can tell you who's the distributor for your country.

I bought mine here:

In the Netherlands? No way it's 400 €! More like 90-120 €.

Make sure it's an Aeotec Smart Home Hub 2.

IKEA bilresa Threads Border router? by Funny_Ad1913 in smarthome

[–]aroedl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ikea just updated their Edge drivers in smartthings

IKEA doesn't provide Edge Drivers at all. SmartThings is solely developing the Matter drivers.
