But you or someone else can add it to the main repo if you want.
Hi guys. I tried the method in the chinese forum to get the key needed for this to work however, whenever i press the gateway information button in development mode, the app crashes.
I tried on 3 different android devices - unpair, pair, and etc but the app just crashes whenever i try to enter.
Is there any other way i can get the key?
edit: clicking on local area network communication protocol gives me a message : current device does not support this feature. Does that mean im having v1 w/o radio? And does that mean my xiaomi gateway cannot be integrated?
I really like ti, can you explain better and upload some others screenshots? What do you psyticaly do for activate the light? Thanks
The lights are powered always now (compare the first image). The switch does not disconnect mains anymore. The lights are some yeelights which are integrated into home assistant. If the door sensor / switch changes the state an automation toggles the light.
This just surfaced:

Anyone has an idea whether it’s just a different form of the old temperature/humidity sensor?
I found the same a few weeks back from FCC docs:
If you compare the PCB photos of the Aqara device here:
https://fccid.io/document.php?id=3240118
with the Xiaomi device here:
You can see they are very similar, but its not as simple a change to the physical enclosure. There is a board shape AND layout change, too.
Which to me is quite surprising… I would have thought they would be the same internally.
BTW there are apps for both EigenStone and Aqara on iOS appstore.
Both apps appear the same, but it seems you need a chinese mobile number to register. I tried with my UK number and never receiver the registration code by SMS.
Its currently cheaper than the old version, too 
Just noticed some of the others on GB, too:
Zigbee curtain control, anyone?

Literally bought everything a couple of weeks ago and now they get updated! 
the old look better to me: more tiny
26 cm wide … who has such small windows???
It’s just motor. You’ll need rails.
ahh I see, I never saw one, I do not understand well how they work
Not entirely true. Unless you buy just one. I’ve been keeping an eye on them and they drop them to 11.99 quite often, and you can buy a second one for around ~ $8, which makes the price per unit to $10. Banggood will sell them to you for $9.99/each if you buy 3 or more. But I bought one to test for $8 and I’m waiting for such a price drop again so I can buy several more 
Hi Guys,
I Just wanted to throw my two cents into the ring.
Currently using new generation Xiaomi gateway with 3 door sensors, two push button switches, and motion sensor. It is seems very stable and works great.
Big props to @rave for creating this project and making the whole thing possible.
I am currently running the fork by @Danielhiversen. Very impressive improvements and very stable.
I have been running it for a while now and I feel that it is ready for the big time.
Hope to see this in the main repo soon.
Cheers Guys, awesome work.
Beers for all!

You’re right. I didn’t account for the multibuy combos from GB that are on the original sensor.
IMO geatbest > bangood
I like the old designs more, especially the wireless switch.
They new Aqara line has the same functions as the old ones?
Has anyone had to replace the batteries in the sensors? At me the charge indicator drops very fast.
Sure I can understand this, but maybe I don’t explain well what I mean in my question: To activate a button, physically I use a finger. How can you use a door/window sensor as a button? Sorry for my rasty English, I’m from Sicily! 
Thanks!
