Thanks Brian for the update the issue I was having has been resolved
The lock type is actually brand new in the last several days. Unless you just really want to try it, Iâd suggest sticking with the basic sensor type youâre running now. If still want to try the lock type, just add the DTH and tap through setup again, choosing the âcreate locksâ advanced option.
Oops Guess I messed with the light control device type then
Would you mind giving more details why you would not suggest adding? Is it because the nature of the lock type breaking automations? Most of my automations are based on the status of the garage door and sending close command so Iâd say would be safer for me
Mostly just that itâs not well-tested, and I canât promise it will work very smoothly, especially if you use the native Smart Locks app with other locks . More info is tracked on github here in case youâre curious.
Itâs very much beta work-in-progress, but if youâre cool with that, then go for it.
If I update the DH and SmartApp via github, do I need to rerun the smartapp in the phone, delete the old devices the old SmartApp created, or both?
Just re-run the SmartApp setup, choosing the lock option.
A bit off topic, but ⊠interesting: https://www.myq.com/amazon?utm_source=ch-mc&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=myQ_Key_ActiveNoOpt
I saw that. Makes more sense letting Amazon into your garage (where tons of people already have an integration) rather than letting them waltz into your front door
Looks great⊠except the chamberlain app wonât let me change to my gmail account. Gives an odd error that says the account is already in use.
Moved myQ to gmail. I never did load the universal translator, so I did it with Webcore. Letâs see how it goes tomorrow.
Edit: the google link to IFTTT needed to be deleted and reset.
Followup: it works well, at least this morning.
Thanks a lot for the info! I appreciate your effort! Basically all I want is to secure my Google Home integration to the door, now my front door has no security at all except having a different name and open command than typical âgarage doorâ. But since Google Assistant still does not support vocal PIN for locks thatâs no call for me
Made a donation to you! Not much just a cup of coffee
Donât undersell yourself - a flat white goes a long way for me - I appreciate it!
I have to imagine theyâll add support at some point because Alexa has it. Once they do, that should fix this for you.
@Tsawrie
Did you ever figure this out? My experience was similar but was due to a faulty Liftmaster wall button. It would ghost open and close. I replaced that and all is well
Thatâs been almost a year ago but if I recall, I replaced the tilt.
I swear I need to keep better notes!
In trying to migrate my account to a different email, Iâm encountering an error in saving the new configuration. It says to contact the author.
Should I delete and then reinstall the app?
Maybe make sure youâve got the latest version first. You could also open the Live logging in the IDE to get a more detailed error. Otherwise, deleting and reinstalling might help.
@brbeaird just noticed that my main fav screen icon isnât being refreshed, I just updated app/handler, but it didnât fix it:
What happens if you hit that refresh button? That should force a sync with the sensor. Also may help if you tap through the SmartApp setup process once after updating.
Going thru setup worked!
