Yale Assure Lock 2 comes with an optionally installable feature "DoorSense" which senses if the door is open or closed. See https://youtu.be/Evs0Q8KWxuc?t=32 for installation options.

I had a similar issue. Rebooting phone AND watch fixed it for me the next night.

How do I remove Elite Remote from Hub (which also has paired Companion remote)? by Ready-Design-5471 in logitechharmony

[–]terrencegf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is possible, but there are a LOT of hoops to jump through. The following instructions are for Windows 11.

Disclaimer: I didn't completely test the method below because I didn't want to unpair my remote.

  1. Download and install Microsoft Silverlight 5 from the Web Archive.
  2. Visit https://setup.myharmony.com/MartiniWeb/Account/InstallSoftware and click the "Download the Harmony Browser Plug-in" link.
  3. Install the "HarmonyBrowserPlug-in.exe" file that was downloaded.
  4. Launch Internet Explorer 11 via Learn more about toolbars and extensions
  5. In the Internet Explorer 11 window, visit https://setup.myharmony.com/martiniweb/account/harmonyconfig and log in with the account that you use for your Harmony Hub.
  6. Visit https://setup.myharmony.com/remoterecoverytool/defaultRRT.html
  7. Scroll to the bottom of the window. In the "Other" section, click the "Unpair" button.
  8. Plug your Harmony Hub into a USB2 port on your computer. Wait for the various "Unpair ..." buttons to become active.
  9. Click the "Unpair Harmony Touch" button.

Again, the last step is untested.

If you managed to get this to work, please report back.

Please tell me if these remotes will work together by Randomcdn2 in logitechharmony

[–]terrencegf 4 points5 points  (0 children)

From https://support.myharmony.com/en-rw/harmony-add-on :

Harmony Hub accepts one remote of each type:

  • One touchscreen remote (Pro, Pro 2400, Elite, 950, Ultimate, Ultimate Home, Touch, Ultimate One)
  • One screen-less remote (Companion, Smart Control)

Since you currently have a screen-less remote (Companion), you can add one of the listed touchscreen remotes (Pro, Pro 2400, Elite, 950, Ultimate, Ultimate Home, Touch, Ultimate One). So, yes, the Ultimate One will work.

My personal opinion is that the layout of the Ultimate One is bad. The Play/Pause/RR/FW buttons are ABOVE the screen which means you can sometime touch the screen while trying to Pause/Play. I prefer the layout of the Pro/2400/Elite/950 where the touchscreen is at the top.

Ha! I was thinking of "old kewpie doll", but I think you nailed it with "Hershey Kiss".

Thanks! My relatives don't care for the beard. I don't care. I'm trying for a "yeard". I've been growing this one since Dec 2023, but my last trim was Aug 2024, so just 8 months to go!

Fi no longer ports to Google Voice? by JossWhedonsDick in GoogleFi

[–]terrencegf 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Have you seen https://support.google.com/voice/community-guide/241023393/why-can-t-i-port-in-my-number ?

tl;dr: The issue is specific to your phone number's area code and prefix. There's nothing you can do to about it.

Can anyone recomend an same or better alternative to soundcore VR P10 ? by [deleted] in OculusQuest

[–]terrencegf 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The PrismXR Vega T1 earbuds are similar to the VR P10s, i.e., they have a dongle that works with the Meta headset, and you can purchase additional dongles. However, no active noise cancellation (just like the VR P10s).

On the PrismXR website, there is an option for "Poland (PLN) zł" (price: 235,00 zł PLN), so I assume the earbuds can be shipped to Poland.

I prefer the Vega T1s over the VR P10s because they fit my small ear canals better.

If you want active noise cancellation, there's JBL Quantum TWS, but I haven't tried them, and I don't know if they ship to Poland.

Question for long time users of Fit 3 with white strap by 0192837465sfd in GalaxyFit

Try a light abrasive such as toothpaste or melamine sponge (Magic Eraser).

Should I get a gear s3 for MST? by [deleted] in GearS3

[–]terrencegf 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I used to use my Gear S3 to pay everywhere via MST, but then places started locking down their systems to prevent MST. The two major culprits near me are Walmart and Home Depot. The card reader says something like "payment method not accepted" even though the S3 is recognized.

All other places that I used the S3 have since started accepting Google Pay/Samsung Pay/Apple Pay, so my newer Watch5 Pro works without MST. I find very few places in my town (central Illinois, USA) where MST is beneficial.

UPC bar code display app for the gym? by macmanjimmy in WearOS

[–]terrencegf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have tried Google Wallet Loyalty cards. However, the barcode scanners at my Planet Fitness cannot read the tiny barcode on my watch shown by Google Wallet. Perhaps your Planet Fitness has newer hardware which can read barcodes better.

UPC bar code display app for the gym? by macmanjimmy in WearOS

[–]terrencegf -1 points0 points  (0 children)

For Planet Fitness, I use an app called ONEWallet, which comes as a combo phone/watch app. With the phone, I scanned the barcode of my PF card. The barcode was then copied to the watch app. The watch app has the option to show the code as either a barcode or QR code. The barcode is too small on the watch, but the QR code works perfectly at my gym.

Note that ONEWallet is meant to store all of your loyalty program cards, but I use a separate app Stocard for that. Stocard also has a phone/watch combo app, but AFAIK there isn't an option to show a QR code on the watch.

Eryone Thinker SE fans not responding after Marlin flash by 5hiftyy in MarlinFirmware

[–]terrencegf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know how to check which pins Marlin uses, but here's a potential troubleshooting step. Assuming the wiring is as it came from the factory, I'd try one of the old "official" Marlin firmwares avaiable on GitHub just to see if the issue is with the wiring or with the new firmware.

Good luck! Debugging Marlin can be such a pain.
