Anyone tried to install it on Kindle Fire? Kindle is a good quality and cheap tablet, so I was thinking to use it for wall mounted controllers around the house. I need to do some research, but as far as I know, the app does not need much modification to be able to install it on Amazon OS.
Any other recommendation for a cheap tablet, about 7" size which I should use?
0.6.1. is the first version I installed, on a Samsung Galaxy Tab. I did not try the camera yet, but the motion detection/turn on the screen works very well for me. Great work and thank you so much! Let me know if there is something specific you want us to test and I will.
Great project. I recently bought an Amazon Fire 7 (7th gen). Just trying a few things out for the time being. HA front end (HASS) loads fine in Chrome, and I am able to view my floorplan, etc.
I installed WallPanel but then my floorplan no longer displays. No idea what the difference is between Chrome and the browser engines within WallPanel, as far as loading the floorplan goes. Anyone else tried getting the floorplan working with WallPanel?
Thank you for the great application.
Camera and motion detection work like charm. I have one slightly problem though. I’m using HaDashboard with Nexus 9 and everything works great on initial dashboard (dashboard launch URL), but if I’m trying to navigate through my other dashboards, nothing is happening (e.g. from ip:port/main go to ip:port/other). With enabled option “Show Browser activities” it’s not showing any attempts to load new screen either. Any ideas where to look at?
I have 0.6 working on my Amazon Fire Alexa 7 just got it yesterday had to pay for the ads to be remove from the lock screen but I hope someone can figures out the screen lock problem.
I just installed this and it works great. The one issue I am seeing is that MQTT is not working, and I am sure my settings are correct (I have lots of devices connecting to MQTT). The camera stream and wake on motion are all great.
Unfortunately I also have a Fire Tablet 8" (6th gen) and it appears you cannot disable the lockscreen without root (trying the above method, you can’t “su” so the sqlite command fails because of permissions). It is too bad because the Fire tablets are so cheap.
@quadportnick as an alternative, is it possible to dim the screen to 1% brightness when no motion is detected, wake up to brighter when it’s triggered? that would be a good alternative
Hello Friends , wallpanel is amazing! , just ONE BIG problem , i have setup wallpanet to display the hadashboard (main.dash) , in the main.dash i have insert some widget_type: navigate , to have more pages , but inside the wallpanel the navigation is not working i cant get to another page when i press the icon , but if i open the main.dash from normal browser i can navigate without a problem…
Wallpanel is very nice, on the Fire tablets seems like unless you can root it, you have to swipe to see screen because you can’t disable the lock screen.
I couldn’t figure out how to root mine so ended up with 2 apps, Android IP Webcam in the background which has a HA component (for camera stream + motion/light sensors in HASS) and ‘Fully Kiosk’ for viewing HA. Fully Kiosk has a screensaver so the lock screen won’t be enabled on the FIre, & then I trigger the ‘show screen’ command via REST with HA by monitoring the IP Webcam’s motion sensor. Sort of a round about way of doing it but it works, if you want the screen to trigger by motion.
Those Fire 7s were too cheap today so I got one to try to get to work with HA/Wallpanel, will let you know how it goes.
