I’ve installed 3.1.0 release and it is working very well (I was at 3.0.1).
Thank you @rospogrigio and @postlund
You guys are awesome!

You are mixing old and new configuration syntax. Have a look at README.md in the git repo for an example (or set up via config flow).

I figured it out with the following, indeed following the github examples. Just too many posts on this while the best I could do was following the Github examples. I just missed the information where to put it all. I also struggled with the fact that it wouldn’t show up anymore in the normal integration section, after adding it on HACS. Seemed that it works just fine if you put it in the YAML, you just can’t use the Flow option anymore. After you add it in the configuration YAML it shows up in the normal integration, but you will lose the option to add stuff by UI. Not sure how to fix this. This:
Has some good comments on it. But I never got to the point of trying to fix it any longer, since I already got it running.

Hi
yesterday I tried to add the localtuya from HACS. Until yesterday everything was working fine.
after the update I restarted HA and my 5 covers were unavailable (grey out) on the contrary my 2 dimmers were available.
if i manually move the slider (picture below) they start to work and are available afterwards.
Today after a restart they are unavailable again, and I get the following in the logs

What’s wrong? what should I do please?
Hi
please any help regarding the above? Is there something I can do? I am thinking to completely remove the integration and re- added it but I am not sure if it will solve the problem.
It’s reported here:
1 Like
ok, that’s good. At least I didn’t deleted the integration yet since it would not solve the problem.
As I can understand hopefully the team will fix it.
Can you confirm, that when it will be fixed we will see the update in HACS. right?
Dear @Makis, I pushed a candidate fix in the following PR: https://github.com/rospogrigio/localtuya/pull/189 , can you please test it and report there if it fixes your problem?
Thank you
Hi, of course I will try it. But please can you tell me what I have to do?
Replace the cover.py file in your localtuya folder with the one you find here:
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/rospogrigio/localtuya/cover_fix_time_nonetype/custom_components/localtuya/cover.py
And let us know…
yes, it is working
thank you!
Hi, @rospogrigio.
With the last master branch 3.1.0, also a lot of entries appeared in the logs.

But there is no color_temp or color_mode DP in dimmers. Brightness DP only.
OnWall dimmer has:

InWall dimmer has:

In InWall Dimmers - DP 101 is a separate setting for the minimum brightness level.
Or is it okay?
Thanks.
I have been spending hours with no luck with different android emulators, different versions of tuya apps and attempts with local sniffers on my samsung phone, but no luck of getting the IDs of my motion sensors or switches.
Does anyone please have a method that always work for you? From a windows computer or non-rooted android phone?
Thanks 
Hi. I use this method:
For those who use the Tuya Smart app on Android, and have a PC with Windows OS.
For getting the Tuya Smart LocalKey (or device ID, or etc.). There a method a “easier” way.
The Tuya Smart app stores the LocalKey in a XML-File on your phone/tablet. Usually you can’t access it until the phone is rooted. But don’t worry, no need to root your phone, there is a easier way.
We will install a Android emulator, root it, install the Tuya Smart app and extract the keys. To do so, go to:
and download the latest BlueStacks Tweaker (Link is on top of the page) and Bluestacks installation (down below) according to your OS (32/64Bit).
Also go town to “utils” and download SuperSu 2.82-SR5.apk and Root Checker Pro 1.6.2.apk.
Then install Bluestacks, and after installation, follow the first instructional video on the page to root Bluestacks.
With rooted Bluestacks, go to Play Store and Download “Tuya Smart” app.
N.B. Version Tuya Smart App should be no higher v.3.6.1
Make sure to run it once, login and access your device’s once!
This is essential because only when doing so, it will get the configuration to our Bluestacks rooted phone!
Next, install “ES File Explorer” from Google Play store.
Set ES File Explorer to “Root Mode” (Scroll down left to find “Root Explorer”)
a warning will popup if root sholud be granted, grant it.
root sholud be granted
Now on the right, navigate to:
/data/data/com.tuya.smartlife/shared_prefs
shared_prefs
You end up in a folder with some XML-files, this is where we want to go.
XML-files
Find the file called:
preferences_global_key_<some chars and numbers>.xml
and click it. ES File Explorer will open it (or better copy file and open in Notepad++). You will find the ID of your device’s!
I use this method to get local ID for devices of various manufacturers, for example Tuya Smart, Xiaomi, Midea Air.

Hi
apparently there is still something wrong.
Today some of my covers where grayed out and I could not use them at all, even with the slider

not sure for the connections issues because everything else was working ok or at least I think so
The first exception is from the regular tuya integration, so not a problem for us. The other indicates that a status update has been received, but for some reason we don’t have a state yet (I.e. value for the ID DP). This is a case I guess shouldn’t happen, but maybe we should guard against it since it can happen sometimes when there’s an issue with the initial DP detection.
