Just to let my contributors know and all ST users who would like to do targeted heating/cooling in their home that I have new version of my zoned Heating/Cooling smartapp available at my store :
I corrected the following minor issues in ecobeeSetZoneWithSchedule (v8.8.8), & ScheduleTstatZones (v8.8.7) :
Made some changes to better control the Flair vents when Switch value=off
Removed some logic related to room tstats to avoid conflict with the Virtual Zone’s setpoints
P.S. For all ST users who have contributed to my support packages, the update has been done for you under your ST account (provided that I have your credentials), you don’t need to do anything: everything has been taken care of.
You can download the new version at my store using the original sellfy link.

Made some changes in setRoomTstatSettings & turn_off_room_tstats_outside_zones() to avoid any conflicts when the master tstat is also included in the rooms (as a slave thermostat) for the scheduled zones.

Very interesting issue. I went to set up my schedule and I dont see where to set up the day of the week. I set up my first tstat was able to enter the information in. went to do the second and it was not there. So I went back to my first one that I was successful on and it was missing from there also. What am I missing
You have 2 zoning smartapps under your ST account :
ecobeeSetZoneWithSchedule is exclusively designed for ecobee tstats and follows the ecobee schedules (so it doesn’t have day & times input values) ;
ScheduleTstatZones is for all ST connected thermostats and , as such, asks for day & time input values, as most ST connected tstats rely on ST for scheduling.
IF you have ecobee tstats, you should use ecobeeSetZoneWithSchedule as it has many more features for the ecobee.
For those that are pondering getting this application, I give it 5 stars. Not only is it a good application the customer service is outstanding. I ran into a few issues and he worked with me to resolve them and he responded quickly. I was looking at other apps and actually tried a few after I already installed this and it was not a day and I went right back to this. Great work!
Can someone advise me on how to add the radiator thermostats to the rooms with this app.
I’ve created Zones and rooms but can’t see where you put the actual thermostat.
Hi, Yes you did thanks, I was just wondering if any one else had any input. As I saw your original comments promoting your app in a danfoss thread I thought it must work.
I don’t have a main thermostat that works with smart things either so It looks like your app won’t be suitable. I may be worth stating that on your website.
I think what I’m looking for is much simpler than your offering. Thanks anyway.
It surprising Smart things don’t have these apps in place, seems like it requires programming, surprisingly Fibaro has an advantage over smart things with its interface in this case.
Yes, as I wrote to you, any code under SmartThings will fail after a while if the author doesn’t keep up with the ST platform’s changes and new requirements…
What was working 6 or even 3months ago may not be working anymore due to the Samsung Connect app and other changes…
Just want to inform my contributors that new major versions of ScheduleTstatZones (v9.0) & MyVirtualZone (v2.0) * can be downloaded at my e-commerce solution provider (sellfy) using the original download link.
If you’re a contributor and interested in the new major version (v3), let me know and I can directly send the code to you for beta testing the upgrade. All you need to do is to copy &paste the new code over the existing one for MyVirtualZone DTH (Device Handler Type) and the zoning smartapp.
You’d probably need to refresh the Samsung connect app’s cache in order to see the UI changes. There are some instructions to do so in the release notes.
The new UI presentation amongst others adds a custom capability (setZoneSetpoint see image below).
Just want to inform my contributors that new version of MyVirtualZone(v2.2) can be downloaded at my e-commerce solution provider (sellfy) using the original download link.*
The new version exposes the heatingSetpoint & coolingSetpoint capabilities based on my custom setThermostatSetpoint capability for easier integration with dashboard such as SharpTools & ActionTiles.
All you need to do is to copy &paste the new code over the existing one for MyVirtualZone DTH (Device Handler Type) and the corresponding zoning smartapp and save/publish.

Considering your comment being that the correct version is 9.3.1…do i have the right code? I’ve recently downloaded and installed this for the first time last week on 8/23.
To be clear, i’ve never had the tile reflect anything other than “Checking”.
Just to followup, I ended up swapping my nest out for a Honeywell T6 Zwave device for an unrelated reason. So now the thermostat no longer is being controlled via a cloud-to-cloud connection.
Figured I’d try this again as a result. No change. The tiles still have never once loaded properly. Everything seems accurate when opening up the tile, but the home screen tile never displays anything other than “loading”.
