Tile Tracker broken for me in 0.97.2 - Apparently it was fixed

So searching around I learned the HA option to override built in components by putting (updated and syntax corrected) custom components in the folder by the same name, as explained over here

Since it was mentioned here that the syntax for API has been corrected in the component file

I downloaded the updated filed from Git repository and placed them as-it-is in the custom components under a /tile folder and voila…the problem seems to be fixed.

Well another day of learning about this awesome community driven monolith.

Thanks everyone for helping.
