@JoeJoe the pdf app must in that case support intents for changing page. I doubt many apps do that.

Yes, yellow is also valid. See the documentation at https://github.com/50ButtonsEach/fliclib-linux-hci/blob/master/ProtocolDocumentation.md#evtgetbuttoninforesponse.

I think something like the following for got_button should work:

def got_button(bd_addr):
	cc = fliclib.ButtonConnectionChannel(bd_addr)
	cc.on_button_single_or_double_click = \
		lambda channel, click_type, was_queued, time_diff: \
			if click_type == fliclib.ClickType.ButtonSingleClick:
				keyboard.press(Key.right)
				keyboard.release(Key.right)
			else:
				keyboard.press(Key.left)
				keyboard.release(Key.left)
	cc.on_connection_status_changed = \
		lambda channel, connection_status, disconnect_reason: \
			print(channel.bd_addr + " " + str(connection_status) + (" " + str(disconnect_reason) if connection_status == fliclib.ConnectionStatus.Disconnected else ""))
	client.add_connection_channel(cc)

Yes we noticed it recently. We're working on it.

Yeah unfortunately we haven't implemented "unpair" functionality, so you need to go to the registry and delete the buttons. They are located under HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Shortcut Labs\Flicd\Radios\xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx\Buttons. You should also remove it from the Bluetooth system settings if it appears there.

Hi. It is possible that there are interfering IR light sources so the hub thinks that is the signal you try to record. Try turn off your lights around and if possible record in darkness.

@tony Android's Bluetooth team messed up the update to Android 9. The cached GATT db structure is erased for bonded devices after the update, so the API gives an empty list of GATT services, making it impossible to communicate with the GATT characteristics. The only way to make it work again seems to be to unbond the Bluetooth device from the system and then bond again.

@info-5 is this wired or wireless network?

@jhoward15 we migrated the latest app to the new permission system where the user explicitly needs to accept permissions at runtime. For old actions you need to simply re-save the action.

@pierce on my phone they end up under Internal storage / Music / Flic

Hi. The Flic hub and the Hue hub must be on the same LAN network in order to see each other. Make sure they are behind the same router.

@tonsit we are working on a hub sdk which lets you do custom stuff, but it's not ready yet

@kjell-svensson You cannot use the Hue hub as a Flic hub if that's what you're asking.

The Android designers don't like third party apps to unlock the phone. They are putting more and more restrictions over time, especially now with the 8 and 9 updates. Last time we got an email from Google Play complaining that we used the Lock/turn off the Screen feature in Android.

Anyway, the only way we could solve this would be to be a HID device (like a keyboard), so we simulate Enter Enter which would unlock the phone unless you have a PIN or similar. But we evaluated that and came to the conclusion that HID works very poorly in Android if we at the same time would like Flic to be an ordinary BLE device usable by the Flic app. (It's like the OS takes over the device connection etc., and it interferes with other apps; for example they might hide the on-screen keyboard). However, HID works good enough on iOS so there we use it for a couple of actions.

Can you send a picture of what you mean with "X" in a box? Standby means there is currently no active ongoing Bluetooth connection to the button (although the phone might still listen for the button, waiting to connect, unless you have explicitly disconnected the button (blue symbol) or the button is not paired with the phone (red symbol)).

@marook Which kind of Sonos device do you have? The ones we test with at the office are Sonos Play: 1.

Our VLC action is mainly to control VLC players on (other) computers.
Due to iOS limitations, it is not possible to launch another app from the background, so your suggestion is impossible.

Hi. You need to update to hub firmware version 1.4.1 to work with Sonos devices >= 9.1.

Hi. We currently don't support hidden wifis.

@benkloester Hi. We have fixed the bug with Tasker. The fix will be included in the next app release.
