Hi all,
I recently bought the YoLink water leak sensors and had been waiting for its integration in the home assistant.
Anyways, in absence of any positive communication from YoLink or YoSmart, I thought about directly sniffing the LoRa messages off air. I used a simple RTL-SDR and using some gnuradio files from GitHub - rpp0/gr-lora: GNU Radio blocks for receiving LoRa modulated radio messages using SDR (with some small changes), I could get the following messages. I am no expert in any of these but could follow things. I’m not sure if the following messages are encrypted but I get them whenever I press a button in one of my YoLink sensor (temp/humidity sensor). That way I know its the right thing.

From the GitHub - rpp0/gr-lora: GNU Radio blocks for receiving LoRa modulated radio messages using SDR I had to change the following things…
Set the center and target frequency to 910.3 (per USA)
Set the spreading factor to 7
Once I did this, I see the messages spitted into Wireshark every time I press the button on my YoLink sensor.
May be this might be useful for other people who may be more knowledgeable in decoding it.
