Do you not have this screen ?Screenshot_20190113-091229

Yes I have. But if I press on the tree dots I get a screen without “about” voice.

Is your gateway a MJ or Aqara ? not sure the Aqara work as they are setup to work with homekit

Ciao. I have Aquara Hub v3 connected with Mi Home App version 5.4.50. I have no homekit. Only Hub and some sensors buyed alone not on kit.

On iPhone I was able to obtain the key for Mi Gateway v2 by:
Gateway screen in Mi Home app -> 3 dots -> About -> a few taps at the bottom of the screen (where version number is supposed to be).

I also have the v3 Aquara and the latest version of mi home

I also don’t have the about option on the three dots
I have tried downgrading mi home to 5.0.0 and still no option of about

The earlier versions of mi home will also not allow connection to the hub

I have searched forum after forum to get the token but nothing works

I have emailed xiaomi tonight to see if they can help

Like others on here xiaomi works fine with the sensors but they are worthless if I can’t get them to work in ha

thank you so much !!!

Thank you for what ?

No replies on this at all

So no one knows gow to get a xiaomi hub v3 token at all ?

I am struggeling with the same. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks shortcheescake

hopefully we can get a little help on this

Strange. I run the v3 and it appears for me on iPhone

Hi Wookie

I have just double checked my iPhone again and here is what I see

How would you fancy doing a test for me to see if we can get to the bottom of this

If I supplied you with my email address and a temporary password to my mi home

would you log in and see if you still have the about and can see my token (and note it while you are there)
There is nothing on my xiaomi hub apart from a temp sensor

I see from your screen shot you may be in Australia?

what version of the mi home app, iphone and what server are you connected to
there seems to be quite a few people who cannot get this token and I would like to get to the bottom of it all

I experience the same issue but on the android app.

Hi Nicox

No no reply from anyone on this subject

I have tried emailing xiaomi and triedzall versionsbof tbe app on android and have tried the current version on apple
Still no luck

No offer of anyone coming back to me to see if they want to try to log into my own hub and see if they can pick the key up for me or let me know what software versions tgey are running

I am keen to get this working. No one is keen to help

Paul

Hi Paul,

The only thing i found so far is:
https://community.aqara.com/forum/faq-1/topic/how-to-connect-the-aqara-hub-to-the-network-78
grafik

So i think we might have to wait for that.

Nico

Thanks for the update Nico

I hadn’t seen that

Hi Everyone. I think I found a solution.

First Set region mainland china. Go to items list and select gateway. (my gateway xiaomi v3)
click three dots menu and click about. If you see only two option repeatedly tab under these option below empty area. And Ta da! Secret Chinese menu must be opening. Select third option and voila. There is a developer key. 16 characters
