Playing around with this some and one thing that doesn’t seem to work is a simulated button. I put in the vid, health check, etc. The new app still won’t recognize it.
You may want to try the vid for generic-switch. I have some momentary buttons i use, and by using that vid I was able to get them to work in the new app.
Did you have to add the switch capability? I tried the vid generic-switch and now the app seems to recognize it but it is continuously saying checking status.
My Xiaomi buttons are showing up but sit in Checking Status…
I used bspranger code for the classic app and worked fine. The new app does not work however.
@HA_fanatic - How was that list of known vid’s compiled and have there been any updates?
Looking at the developer docs (https://smartthings.developer.samsung.com/develop/guides/manifest/requirements.html), it says this about mnmn:
Each manufacturer is identified by the string mnmn, for example, ab12. Manufacturers must use the manufacturer name, which was granted when a SmartThings app sync request was made as the mnmn value. If any text is used as the mnmn value, the device cannot be added to the Samsung IoT Cloud, and the device’s metadata cannot be registered on the Metadata Server. An mnmn value is given to each manufacturer and all devices manufactured by a manufacturer use the same mnmn value. Here it lists just two valid mmnm, one for Samsung stuff and one (“SmartThings”) for smartthings devices.
For vendor id it says:
ID is a text value that a manufacturer can freely assign to a device they release. Each product must have a unique VID value. For Samsung’s home appliances, TVs, and audio products, when a manufacturer has multiple product groups, they can classify the metadata of their products internally using different prefixes for VID values.
It lists how it sorts Samsung vids, but doesn’t mention anything for smartthings.
Is anyone seeing any settings in the new app? I modified one of my custom handlers that had some simple parameters on it and it can now connect to the device in the new app, but I don’t see any option or access to the parameters of the device itself. It’s just a dimmer switch, so I used generic-dimmer. Wondering if all the generic-xxx vids will be bereft of parameters or it’s just me.
see the thing is my old ones are. But when I create a new one, it is no good, and I changed the dth on one of them and then put it back and now it won’t show up at all. Can you try to create a new one and see if it shows up for you?
