Fully Kiosk Browser

thank you
The URL I got is https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/bramkragten/weather-card/dist/icons/day.svg

It must be correct as you get the same URL here

then with a nslookup command I got the following IPs which I placed on my firewall’s exclude rule.

C:\Users\makis>nslookup cdn.jsdelivr.net

Bingo! It worked! Thank you

Let’s see if blocking tablet to access Internet solves the problems.
So far, the Fire OS version is the old one and without Internet won’t be updated.

I will keep you posted!

Unfortunately, although what I did was very promising, the tablet still goes to sleep once within 24 hours.
I hard reset it and started from scratch.

Tablet didn’t update. Tablet is always on power on.
I have enable stay awake under Developer options.

But for some reason, which I can’t explain, tablet goes to sleep.
At least now I have no ads. But screen goes black.
I have to press power on once to turn on again.

Please share your experience if you face similar problem

like i said, the only recent experience i had was that the battery was drained.

i dont know what you mean with developer options.
i never touched that. i only changed fully options.

for me this is the most important:

and you must have done more then just install fully.
because when my screen goes off, and i turn it back on i always get adds.

this is an Android advanced option where you can set the device not to go to sleep when powered. Not Fully related. In our scenarion this option is irrelevant as Fully takes care of this

indeed, unless you dont give fully permission for everything.
but if you give fully all needed permissions, then you dont need to do anything outside fully.

and im afraid that changing settings outside of fully can only be contra productive.

FKB takes care of this. Yes!
But shouldn’t tablet stay on especially when a 2nd option (developers options) is checked?
It doesn’t make sense.

After Rene’s advice I thought that something is wrong with my settings.
But then I reset and erase everything.

Started over.

Tablet still goes to sleep.
Isn’t it strange?

in that case i see only 2 options left.

  1. battery trouble
  2. a defect in the tablet

I am thinking of getting one of these for a big kiosk in the kitchen. What do you guys think, is that a good alternative?

Hello,

i have a question about Fully Kiosk Browser and the “Push Notification” part on the Home Assistant page. I try to enable the push notification function on my profile in Fully Kiosk Browser this is not possible. Its grayed out and if i go to the browser (chrome) it self it is possible. Can someone help me?

I want a notification on screen (not the notification bar) when i push a button which enables an automation. Hopefully someone can help me.

Regards,
Thomas

do you use chrome on the same device?
if your chrome on the device is older, its possible that thats why it cant be done there.

but if it can be done on the same device, then in the fully options there is a possibility to change which browser to use. (somewhere in the web settings)

Hi! Where can I find the setting to choose an other browser because I can’t find that.

Notification tester on Android said that everything is fine doe the tab.

you probably need to change settings like enable popup (and maybe others) in web content.
and you can change the user agent (might only be for faking it to the server)

Can any kind person send me their automation how to change back to main lovelace tab with a automation? almost 400 posts to read :open_mouth: :smiley:

any idea why sensor is not working ??

No error in logs.

there can be 1000 reasons depending on what sensor you try to create for what :wink:

Rene hi,
thank you for your prompt reply.

I am trying to create the rest sensor for FKB as per post 1.
Dont get any errors in logs but don’t get any sensor or attributes either.

then your url is probably wrong.

it’s not.
Here is the URL

http://192.168.70.124:2323/?cmd=deviceInfo&type=json&password=[12345]

which gives me data when I hit it on my browser.
So where is the mistake ???

here is the yaml code

sensor:

#### amazon tablet sensors via FKB rest api
  - platform: rest
    name: foo
    json_attributes:
      - batteryLevel
      - kioskMode
      - screenBrightness
      - motionDetectorStatus
      - maintenanceMode      
      - appFreeMemory
      - appUsedMemory
      - ramFreeMemory
      - ramUsedMemory
      - hostname4
      - ip4
      - mac
      - startUrl
      - currentPage
    resource: !secret foo_rest
    value_template: '{{ value_json.screenOn }}'

in that case i suspect there is something wrong with the attributes or the template.
(unless you did put the url wrong in secret, i would first try the url as resource directly (with quotes))

then you need to compare the data you get with the attributes.
templates in HA have changed (dont forget that the start topic is from 3 years ago, so look at the rest sensors intergration in the docs)

Anyone got any thoughts on this?

Would a touch screen like this work well with Fully kiosk?
