Fully kiosk integration from mqtt

Configuration
,
1

Hey All,

I have gotten a generic frameo picture frame - and then used beta mode and adb to install fully kiosk single app with a manually updated chrome as the app (as the built in webview was way to old to run anything). Now it is slow, but i predominately want it for showing graphs and the like and so far its been working fine on that end.

I have installed and connected it to the fully kiosk integration, however, the default configuration for the OS (and i can’t find config options to disable it) is to randomize the mac address on every boot - and i see no way to configure a static IP. I do however have an MQTT broker running - and as the andriod frame can connect to this itself, i don’t need to know its IP, and it will then report the IP to the mqtt system.

My question is - is there an easy way to use the built in fully kiosk integration with an ip address it gets from an mqtt topic - or is there a way i can use an automation to listen to that topic and change the configured ip address for fully kiosk integration?

Just wondering if you can give an update on your progress? I think the Frameo photo frames are nicely packaged up and would be great for a HA dashboard.

Sorry for the slow reply - for the most part i have gotten this working - however i have yet to get anyone to bite on fixing the issue that the IP address won’t update when the MQTT discovery changes. So, every time the device restarts and it creates a new mac address i need to manually remove the entry, and then click add on the auto discovery and type the password in again. Everything works fine after that.
