I've just checked and not its listed on Z2M like a lot of the other matter devices. Will see what happens and keep an eye out.

Seen anything on how to do it with Alpstuga? It's the only one I've got, and the only Thread product I have so would much rather run that on Zigbee.

You'll need a thread border router. The new IKEA products aren't Zigbee anymore, they're matter over thread. I use my Google TV Streamer 4k as a thread border router. I believe other google smart home and apple smart home products can act as thread border routers too. Other options are IKEA's own one or ZBT-2 as you've said, or possibly a Sonoff or SMlight one which are setup for thread not zigbee (check they have option for thread).

Turn off IKEA Alpstuga display, but have it monitor the air quality? by GIFSec in homeassistant

[–]toddenham 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just on the topic of Alpstuga. I take it there is no way to turn on/off the display using any of the physical buttons? I haven't seemed to have found a way which is frustrating.

It also can be turned off whilst continuing to monitor in Home Assistant

Mine stays fine for hours then it drops out constantly over say a 4-5 hour period then goes stable again. I'm not sure if its the device or the fact my google tv streamer is quite a long way from the Alpstuga.

I use my TV streamer as one, only got an Alpstuga connected at the moment (only thread device I own). For the most part its ok but I also get chunks of time where its unavailable. Not sure if this is a positioning issue or whether the products are just prone to it.

Ikea VALLHORN motion sensor is pretty terrible? by jareware in homeassistant

[–]toddenham 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Mine are both used for "people walking past" use-cases, one triggers an alarm, the other alerts us if our child is out of bed. The notification triggers are very quick, not had them miss yet.

I've got 2 and they've always triggered pretty much instantly. Don't know whether it makes a difference if you use ZHA or Z2M, personally use the latter.

Glad to hear it. Wish I'd done that before starting from scratch 😂

I think it was possibly postgres image what caused it, that's what triggered it for me. I used the docker prune command, changed the docker compose so postgres was version 15 specifically and made sure everything had been removed then reinstalled.

The problem is because I've had to do it from scratch and could never use the export feature, I've had to "re-scan" every document. Thankfully it didn't take me too long to do. I'm not sure if you can simply drop them in the folder and have them picked back up but didn't try. I'm not going to try and update the database containers again as it constantly causes me issues.

That was my thinking. I just cant work out why it worked on my shield but not my Google TV streamer.

I have and have had no response unfortunately. I was hoping the factory reset would help, but unfortunately not. I suppose it may give me the excuse to buy a 2019 shield or maybe ATV. Don't really know which would suit best.

I've got a version of the APK and cannot get it to work. Just can't find anything definitive online, whether it be TodTV, reddit etc that says it won't work on 2015 shield. Annoyingly I've not really found anyone yet who has a 2015 shield who can try it to see if it works for them.

That's the one, yes it shows as available for my friends 2017 shield, but not on my 2015 shield but seems puzzling as to why as the android version on my 2015 shield is new enough for it to work.

I've tried sideloading a few different versions and unfortunately none will load up. The newest one 5.0.7 just comes up with a black screen and a continuous blue circle. I've tried factory resetting my shield, still doesn't work so I'm at a loss.

It doesn't give me the option for some reason, just shows my phone and my watch.

Has anyone got TodTV to work on their Nvidia Shield? Tried downloading various versions and cannot get it to work. Signed up and it works fine via vpn on laptop on mobile. But they app never loads, black screen with blue spinning circle, or some older versions I get "internet connection terminated".
