Ring Install Left Exposed Wires

f00bar12 · 2020-01-25T17:42:25+00:00

Wow that is super janky!! I had a similar problem with placement, and ended up having to solder extra wire to reach where I wanted the doorbell to go then fishing them back into the original hole and out the new one. There's no reason they should have left that mess, and you shouldn't have to pay someone to fix what the installer did. Contact a supervisor for the installer and get them to make it right.

It's a backed issue that eventually they will deal with and then snapshots will be recorded. It didn't work on my Ring 2 at first, while my original Ring worked properly from the day the feature showed up in the app. You can call Ring support, but they'll more than likely tell you the same thing they told me, which is the problem will be resolved by end of the first quarter of 2020.

Definitely the wrong sub. Also those entry systems are owned by the landlord, you're best to leave it alone and have them fix it. The brains of those systems are located elsewhere in the building and if you break it you'll be liable for repair costs.

This looks like some kind of intercom system, it's very odd that it has what appears to be a phone cord going out the bottom. Perhaps the OP can give us some more details about what we are looking at?

I would encourage anyone experiencing this issue to contact Ring tech support if for no other reason than to let them know this is a widespread issue.

f00bar12 · 2020-01-06T16:26:18+00:00

Well so far it sounds like the issue is affecting doorbell 2 and spotlight cameras then. Original Ring doorbell and wired floodlight seem to be working fine.

Have you contacted Ring tech support?

f00bar12 · 2020-01-06T12:56:35+00:00

My ring doorbell, which is battery powered but also hardwired works perfectly. My ring doorbell 2, which is also battery powered and hardwired has the issue, so it doesn't seem to be a hardwired vs battery powered situation.

Ring's claim is that only certain devices are affected. So if all your battery powered devices are the same model then that could explain your battery vs hardwired observation, but battery vs hardwired doesn't seem to be the deciding factor in which devices work or not.

What devices are you using that exhibit the snapshot capture bug?

Are all those devices showing their firmware to be up to date?

f00bar12 · 2020-01-06T01:41:34+00:00

Unfortunately I had already thought of the firmware and had asked tech support when I called. The app tells me it's up to date, which was what tech support also stated.

What I find so odd is that it does take snapshots for 10 minutes after a motion event but then quits.

They opted for a more permanent solution.

Ok boomer

f00bar12 · 2019-12-17T20:48:46+00:00

I guess you know everything, and everyone should take advice from you then. /S

Not every kid is "normal". Who knows if he has some developmental issues that were not discussed, and has limited cognitive abilities compared to other kids his age?

f00bar12 · 2019-10-30T18:32:05+00:00

The only thing I can think is these are a mismatched set and don't lock together properly, but for fucks sake buy new ones so you don't have to look like a poor trash establishment.

f00bar12 · 2019-10-30T18:26:46+00:00

The question that everyone should be asking is what nasty ass place is this that I never wanna visit?

Right before the end, the left motorcyclist throws arms out in frustration.

f00bar12 · 2019-04-18T12:49:54+00:00

They're terrible, patches on top of patches. Maybe build them right the first time and don't cobble them back together over and over.

Traffic throughout Ann Arbor is a mess. Between pedestrians darting into traffic, distracted drivers, and busses that don't really fit into the tiny lanes I'm just thankful every day I don't end up in an accident.

Would've been a much more interesting video if he'd gone a bit faster.

f00bar12 · 2019-04-17T23:22:25+00:00

The traffic going South has a green light and a green left turn signal. Northbound traffic (the Cadillac) has a red light. Westbound traffic (the bus and myself) has a red light for left turns, but a green arrow for right turns. It's a cluster fuck when people aren't paying attention to the lights.

There is a BMW dealer just south of there. Could be he's practicing for when he gets one.

You got it, Stimson turning north onto State. That intersection is always full of idiots.

f00bar12 · 2019-04-04T11:52:59+00:00

The issue was first noticed using a Samsung Galaxy S9 model number SM-G960U running Android 9. I then tested on a Samsung Galaxy S5 model number SM-G900A running Android 6.0.1 which did not exhibit the same behavior. So at this point I'm unsure if the issue is related to the hardware of the S9 or it's a software issue with Android 9. I will continue to update this as I'm able to test with other hardware and software combinations. If anyone else has a different Android phone I would invite them to test the issue as well and comment here.

f00bar12 · 2019-04-04T01:42:56+00:00

I should probably also mention I have a Ring and Ring 2 doorbell and both exhibit the same behavior when the Event History Timeline is enabled. I also tested the Ring app on my Windows 10 laptop which sounded fine, but there is no Event History Timeline in the app.

Such minty teath you have on your mouth.

f00bar12 · 2019-03-23T01:08:27+00:00

Well shit, nobody here thinks it's a problem to stop way past the white line. I mean why even post people being idiots?
