I have to restart the panel every day, because it stopped receiving notifications after a few days. I use the panel as a doorbell chime for my eufy video doorbell.
I made an automation with adb integration sending a reboot command every day. Its working fine with seakys Tools (THANK YOU btw for this beautiful app!)and the companion app.
did you ever resolve this? I’m getting the same now… despite not getting the message on an identical device yesterday!!! same firmware, straight out the box etc.
I had homeassistant working nspanel pro done via adb, but somewhere I had the feeling I needed to update the firmware. so did reset (5 times power thing) and did the update. now I am not able to connect via adb anymore via network (connection refused)
so after restoring back to firmware 1.6, stil no luck with connection via network. the app (iphone) tells me adb is enabled, but cant seem to connect. anyone an idea how to connect? kind of frustrating…
ok, solved it.
I took the screen apart so I could use the micro usb connector. I had to remove the touch screen flat cable, but you can put it back once done.
I connected a keyboard via micro usb connector (used OTG cable), went to settings (windows button + N). enable developer mode, and enable usb debugging.
still no idea why it doesn’t by default as the mobile app tells me adb is enabled. hope this helps other people.
Hi there, new here and a newby, but I have some thoughts to share.
Initially I wanted to extend the useCases for my NSPanel Pro with v3.3.0.
I soon found out that the original eWeLinkControllePanel Launcher needs to run in Foreground in order to be “online” in the eWeLink-Cloud (controlle Subdevices and get Temprature readings in HA Sonoff Integration).
My solution:
Running HA Companion App in the Background while still useing the original Launcher and have a HA Dashboard via URL Website open.
This enabled me to sync some sensors and use NSPanel as Bluetooth Beacon Monitor while not loosing any OutOfTheBox Features. I also got a proximity Sensor Flow working for auto. screen on time.
Open NSPanel customization options:
Setup NSPanel by Sonoff Instructions (Use eWeLink App)
After your Setup is completed you enable ADB-Wifi via eWeLink App
like descripted under section V1.3.2 Changes → Blakadder Sideload Instructions
Follow the instruction to install ultra-small-launcher.apk
No need to install any other apps (No WebView Update needed, no Frameworks needed)
If you want to use NSPanel Pro Tools, turn the Display sleep to “Never sleep”.
Otherwise go to the Developer Options and turn on “Stay active” (maybe badly translated, Keep screen on!)
Proximity Sensor:
Install Automagic apk. I use Automagic for a Proximity Sensor Flow which does not turn off/on the screen, but sends a touch input.
The eWeLinkControllePanel does not turn off the screen but rather sets the display brightness to 0 to turn off the screens background light.
In order to create such a flow you can first follow Blakadders instructions.
Change the flow and delete the “Power On Screen” Step. (I changed the distanz for the sensor to 278 as well)
Create a new Action “Controlle UI” and under Script type “touchGesture(0, 1, newList(358, 14))” (358 and 14 are the coordinates on the screen).
Add another action with a Pause right after it to keep screen responsive to your actions (20 seconds or longer depending on your screen settings).
In the flow overview touch the three dots in the upper right corner and choose options.
Activate “Skip if a instanz is already running”.
Home Assistant Companion App:
Install HA Companion App via apk.
Turn on which ever sensors you want.
The beacon monitor Sensor musst be activated over HA Mobil Integration Settings (Not Companion Settings) as NSPanel has no GPS Modul. The sensor will still work.
At the end:
Switch to the eWeLinkControllePanel Launcher, to reactivate native NSPanel Pro functions.
Accomplished:
NSPanel Pro native Functions (eWeLink Subdevices, ZigbeeHub or Router)
Proximity Sensor to “turn” screen on
Sensor sync to HA, like BT Beacon Monitor to track devices
Get room temprature via HA Sonoff Integration
Controlle HA Devices via NSPanel by useing HA eWeLink Smart Home Integration
Have a nice Dashboard via NSPanel Website to HA Lovelace UI Dashboard URL
(I might look into the WebView Component Update to turn of its StatusBar)
If you guys are interested in more detailed information I might write a Guide.
Time for me to look into NSPanel Pro Open API
Have a good one.
Do you have any idea how you resolved this issue? My NSpanel pro is stuck on the unanimated sonoff logo. And it seems there is nothing I can do to get it to boot again.
You just go all the way again with adb connect -ipAddress, then do the adb insttall command with a " -r" (without the " ") attached. Then it will “update” the existing apk.
I was looking at this earlier. It has a slightly updated GPU, that appears to be it. Probably needed for the higher resolution display. Same rockchip quad core arm CPU, 2gb or ram and 8GB emmc storage. Regarding matter, most devices used IPv6 but now thread devices are starting to slowly release. Thread was created by the same people that created Zigbee and is very close to the 2.4Ghz network so I imagine all the matter stuff is more software related. They are supposed to be running the same code but the original was so broken out of the box that you have to do multiple firmware updates but that apparently causes other issues if you want to follow one of the ADB guides. There might be some small hardware changes but based on Sonoff’s website the GPU is the only difference in the specs. That and a 4.7" display instead of 4" s.
I have issues with installation of “Xposed” New NSPanel Pro 120.
Device doesn’t boot up (stuck at “Sonoff” logo). The only way to return it back to normal is to reset the power 5 times during the boot for the recovery image to get installed.
Actually, if anyone was able to fix that, please let me know.
Xposed isn’t needed on the 120 as WebView is already at the correct version. Another user was having the same issue with the Sonoff logo posting on Reddit. He followed blakadder’s guide and just skipped the entire updating of WebView. Xposed is only needed to update WebView on the original napanel pro. I would imagine the napanel pro utility works also but hasn’t been confirmed to my knowledge.
I’m wishing I would have gotten one when it was 50% off from Sonoff but that deal is over. Easily worth 65$ US but now it’s back to its original price.
I bricked it while trying to update the WebView component, but it comes with 107 out of the box. So after restarting from the recovery image I left it as it is.
