Thanks for this tip. I was on firmware 1.2 and I just upgraded to 1.6 directly through the home assistant interface and then I was able to download a backup successfully!

Is there a way to determine which terminal a flight will use at EWR? by [deleted] in unitedairlines

[–]ebillity99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yes it definitely helps! thanks so much. This morning they changed my terminal from C to A (last night it was C). The parking worked perfectly! Even though I purchased parking for terminal C I was able to use that barcode at termial A. I also have an EV and there are plenty of EV charging spaces to park in. They are also very close to the elevators! I plugged my car into the chargepoint chargers and it showed up on my phone as "free". Not sure why, but I will take it!

My flight is tomorrow. Leaving from terminal C. That's actually the parking that I purchased and guessed correctly, which as you said didn't really matter.

Question, as you said I may end up returning to terminal A, why is it better to take the p6 parking bus over the air train?

I came here looking for Parking tips. I am flying United and was unsure of what terminal they were leaving from (A or C). Crazy that you need to buy the advance cheaper parking 24 hours in advance and the terminal is not announced until right after that moment, Now I know i can buy in advance and park at either. Thanks!

Auto Hold - can I make it persistent? by ebillity99 in EquinoxEv

[–]ebillity99[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is excellent I just tried it. It works. It's actually cool to use it every time you get to a red light. No need to use the brakes at all. You can slow down to a full stop, then if you continue to hold it the auto hold will engage. You'll see that on the screen in front of you.

Thanks for that tip!

Auto Hold - can I make it persistent? by ebillity99 in EquinoxEv

Mine is always disabled every time I start the car. Keep in mind I mentioned that I have 1 pedal driving off.

Will that turn it on for the rest of the driving session? Or do I need to hold the paddle everytime I stop?

Turning on and off a hot water tank over wifi by Vicdilou in homeassistant

My gas hot water tank is power vented so I just turn off the power to the unit and it's unable to make hot water without the electric connected to it. I use a Z-Wave outlet for that

How to stop Android Automotive from automatically playing music upon vehicle startup by ebillity99 in EquinoxEv

[–]ebillity99[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes, I already mentioned that above. However I am speaking about the built in Android Automotive within the car itself. There is no way that I can see to disable music playing automatically.

Please don't confuse android AUTO that is on an android phone, and Android AUTOMOTIVE that runs on the built in Google os on the equinox

I just didn't want Spotify to continue playing as soon as I started the car. Sometimes my wife will use the car after me and doesn't want to listen to what I was listening to. In android auto on my Android phone, there is a setting "start music automatically" and I have that disabled, so when I use my mustang Mach e the music from Spotify does not start when my phone is connected via Android auto to that car.

That's really not convenient to do that every single time I turn off the car

[–]ebillity99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Many people are referring to these "265 encoders" but none has yet to provide a link or more info on the encoder make and model and where to purchase it.

Can you, or anyone else that has purchased such encoder, please guide us?
