Does anyone know how to reset the maintenance times from outside the xiaomi app? It would be a nice addition to reset them directly from HomeAssistant vacuum card.
I think Valetudo can do this.
It seems like the structure of [tap-action] has changed, I scratched my head for a while trying to figure out why the call-service actions where not working. It was not until I checked the documentation for the Picture Element that I realized what was wrong: https://www.home-assistant.io/lovelace/picture-elements/#icon-representing-an-entity-state
Following the documentation, you have to modify the tap-action section for each icon. Let’s take the icon for locating the vacuum for example, in the posted configuration looks like this:
- type: icon
icon: mdi:bell-ring
tap_action: call-service
entity: vacuum.xiaomi_vacuum_cleaner
service: vacuum.locate
style:
top: 80%
left: 80%
"--paper-item-icon-color": rgb(115, 122, 130)
According to the current documentation it should look like this:
- type: icon
icon: mdi:bell-ring
tap_action:
action: call-service
service: vacuum.locate
service_data:
entity_id: vacuum.xiaomi_vacuum_cleaner
style:
top: 80%
left: 80%
"--paper-item-icon-color": rgb(115, 122, 130)
I also saw some examples using [service: vacuum.start_pause] but that service doesn’t exist for the xiaomi vacuum, [vacuum.start] and [vacuum.pause] do work/exist but not [vacuum.start_pause].
I hope that helps.

Thank you so much. Finally found the answer to why all my tap_actions stopped working!
I am glad my comment was of some help… We have to keep an eye on the Lovelace release notes.
For now… custom_component xiaomi_clean_zone_start here Zone cleaning parameters - Xiaomi vacuum

I also saw the icon formatting was wrong, working now.
But I do have the service “vacuum.start_pause”, and I have a Xiaomi Vacuum.
EDIT: I see I have the service in my list but activating it doesn’t work… So you’re right!
Did it like this now, with 5 buttons
- type: vertical-stack
cards:
- type: picture-elements
image: /local/vacuum_card.jpg
elements:
- type: icon
icon: mdi:bell-ring
tap_action:
action: call-service
service: vacuum.locate
service_data:
entity_id: vacuum.bumper
style:
top: 80%
left: 90%
--iron-icon-fill-color: blue
- type: icon
icon: mdi:home
tap_action:
action: call-service
service: vacuum.return_to_base
service_data:
entity_id: vacuum.bumper
style:
top: 80%
left: 70%
--iron-icon-fill-color: blue
- type: icon
icon: mdi:stop
tap_action:
action: call-service
service: vacuum.stop
service_data:
entity_id: vacuum.bumper
style:
top: 80%
left: 50%
--iron-icon-fill-color: blue
- type: icon
icon: mdi:pause
tap_action:
action: call-service
service: vacuum.pause
service_data:
entity_id: vacuum.bumper
style:
top: 80%
left: 30%
--iron-icon-fill-color: blue
- type: icon
icon: mdi:play
tap_action:
action: call-service
service: vacuum.start
service_data:
entity_id: vacuum.bumper
style:
top: 80%
left: 10%
--iron-icon-fill-color: blue
Also, with the previous yaml I couldn’t get the icons to change color. With the " --iron-icon-fill-color: blue " it works.
I am a novice in HA, so I am asking for forgiveness 
- Does someone know how to do it by clicking on STAN-LABEL (w stacji dokującej) to show me more information?
- type: state-label
tap_action: more-info
entity: vacuum.xiaomi_vacuum_cleaner
- In both the Vacuum card and the weather card, it shows information from a lowercase letter. What do I need to set up to start sentences with a capital letter?
I will be grateful for your help.
From console you can do that with the mirobo console tool (see https://python-miio.readthedocs.io/en/latest/vacuum.html#mirobo-reset-consumable and mirobo reset-consumable --help).
To do the same from homeassistant directly, the easiest way at the moment is to use vacuum.send_command, e.g. vacuum.send_command with command reset_consumable (https://github.com/rytilahti/python-miio/blob/master/miio/vacuum.py#L178) and with the parameter sensor_dirty_time (available names for the parameter can be seen in https://github.com/rytilahti/python-miio/blob/master/miio/vacuum.py#L35).

For a simplistic UI I can recommend this, iirc it was good to go after replacing the image: https://www.reddit.com/r/homeassistant/comments/9op70r/neato_picture_elements_card/

I took your card, changed the colors a little bit to make it a little more readable and also modified the tap_action to the new structure laid out in the docs.
Mi ui-lovelace.yaml is in github if anyone wants it. Here is a picture of the card:
hey @gurbina93
thanks for this.
quick question? are you still able to use the custom:vertical-stack-in-card in 0.86.1? I am trying your code out in the on screen lovelace editor i.e. not the ui-lovelace.yaml and I get this error :
YAML Error: TypeError: Cannot read property 'startsWith' of undefined
Any ideas?
Hello, I love this but I am struggling to get the actions to work. I have stripped everything out and just have the start button and I click and nothing happens. Any idea please? on the latest version of HA
elements:
- type: icon
icon: 'mdi:play'
tap_action:
action: call_service
service: vacuum.start
service_data:
entity_id: vacuum.renvac
style:
color: '#000000'
left: 20%
top: 90%
image: /local/lovelace/xiaomi-roborock.png
title: Vacuum
type: picture-elements
Action should be call-service, a dash instead of the underscore you currently have.

Hey, I took ur card and added it, but the operation or maintaince information wont show up in that card 
Do you know why?
You need to setup the template sensors from this file: https://github.com/jardiamj/homeassistant/blob/master/sensors.yaml
Question to your automations; The “automatic start” and “daily cleaning”, you have set this as a condition " as_timestamp(utcnow()) + 1200 - as_timestamp(states.vacuum.xiaomi_vacuum_cleaner.last_updated) > 10080 " what does it mean?

I trigger the vacuum as soon no one is at home. But I want to avoid that the vacuum is triggered every hour or so.
Therefore I trigger the vacuum as soon no one is at home and the last clean was done more then 4 hours before.
I’ve created a more theme-friendly transparant background picture. You can find it here
