- Fixed a bug where Homey would freeze
- Fixed a bug where Flows would be saved outside their folder
- Added an option to enable USB mode for developers using Windows
- Performance improvements
- Stability improvements
- Interface improvements
This discussion has been closed.
Comments
- /api/manager/settings/ returns duplicates for apps (all apps are displayed twice on left)
- apps manually installed are gone (athom project --install)
- insights are not rendered due "TypeError: window.__ is not a function" in __h()
I tried to reboot but still yellow circle.
I don't know if it's save to unplug power.
[FIXED] Because screensaver app was deleted by update Homey has chosen to use yellow/orange circle.
How would .34 and .35 become stable without a godly intervention.
They have proven to contain serieus bugs. So they will never become stable.
If you want it you got to wait or just go to .36 . if you are scared you can Always wait a few days and read on slack or the forum what people thing of .36 and what the problems are.
And you can offcourse hope God wil return for its godly intervention to make .34 and .35 stable.
but now I have double apps

"The promised Z-Wave rewrite is making huge steps and is going faster than we expected"
Just tried to install onkyo from github but received the following error:

for IR to be improved, maybe something else needs improving FIRST..
"Performance improvements";
"Stability improvements";
they are very broad terms, do you know what has been updated.? I don't think so.
A lot of things are being improved on the backend of homey.
There are probably even other people working on "IR" then "Performance Improvements".
Something I saw this morning as wel about IR
"a 20 pound chinese IR remote is even better then homey"
well i don't know about this, but i don't see a generic chinese IR remote do:
full 360 degrees IR;
do all IR languages (There are many! besides the normal "television and radio" IR);
IR is more difficult then you think, especially with 6! IR senders.
For example you don't want to have a double or even triple IR commands to a device.. (what you definitely can get with bouncing of walls)
You can't make all people happy at the same time, that is just impossible.
I think and just my 2 cents, homey being more stable = biggest priority.
If we get IR without stability, you still will be mad because "homey isn't stable you should've worked on that first!"
There are just too many things people want to be implemented.. more then there are people working @ athom.
Bluetooth LE;
Infra Red;
Better Voice Recognition (they are looking at the google API for that at the moment, even though google does NOT handle dutch, at all.);
Z-Wave Improvements (complete rewrite of the API is making good steps forward);
Music Streaming;
Zigbee;
Arduino Library;
And still more to come...
It's all things that we want, badly, and we all want it yesterday.
Just stop complaining and bitching about, and be happy with what you Already have thanks to homey.
Without it, what options would you have had then.? to do what it already can do.
I installed the better logic app (.35 fixed version) locally without any problems, with old CLI and the updated one.
Edit 1: After a restart it stopped working again and has been deleted:
404 (Not Found) error for the language Json's and settings page.
Edit 2: The language Json's are an bug introduced by .36, get it with multiple apps, looks like it wants to include all languages even though they are not there.? Maybe someone can confirm this.
I presume this is for all other apps that use the same way of saving data to homey as well
- IR bounces from floor, walls, ceiling anything couple of times. No matter how many transmitters you have. So the receivers gets signals with a slight delay. No matter what.
- IR signals travels with the speed of light so the interference caused by the delayed signal is not too significant.
- 360 arrangement and 6 transmitter sounds good but does not mean anything on its own. There are many other things what matters as well like the optical efficiency, beam angle, etc. It is fact that Homey`s IR LEDs are sitting deep in the housing. This means poor optical efficiency and tight beam. My homey sits next to my HiFi and it cant control it because of the tight beam and the bounced signal is not strong enough either. I have a Harmony remote (not the hub) and it has a single optical window but that remote is truly 360 as I can control anything with that in ANY position, even from an other room with indirect bounces. Of course no firmware update will fix this. We have to accept it.
- Yes there are many different types of IR codes. However I tend to agree with those who wants to use their not too unique remotes. I also have two Philips (I guess big enough brand even in the Netherlands) remotes and I can`t add them to homey so I can understand the frustrations there.
Have a lovely bug hunting weekend everyone.To all;
Please check all IR holes to see if the all are open and(!) see if all IR leds are aligned right.
Mine has 3 holes which are almost closed due to molding/drilling residues and 1 IR leds totally out of line.
Also the IR beam is very(!!) narrow so reception is very bad.
Guys please check it!!
