Can I install this over Mixiaoxiao build via web update? #9

Closed loyukfai closed 1 year ago

loyukfai commented 1 year ago

I bought a pre-built unit on Taobao which comes with Mixiaoxiao.

However it doesn't work with my AC (Hitachi RAS-E13CAK)

Also, it has some character limit for WPA key

Can I upgrade to this via web to resolve the above issues?

Cheers.

  1. Connect your device to your FTDI adapter in flash-mode, connecting GPIO-0 to GND or holding down device button while connecting if it uses GPIO-0.
  2. Use flash_download_tool_3.9.5.exe to flash this bin in your device:

So I must get a FTDI adapter and not use the web update feature (https://camo.githubusercontent.com/8cfe908d3458805fc5bb42540c6d95d97168246aad537b769fed9ae0460dba39/68747470733a2f2f7261772e6769746875622e636f6d2f4d697869616f7869616f2f455350383236362d49522d484f4d454b49542f6d61737465722f696d6167652f69725f686f6d656b69745f7765625f70616765732e706e67 middle pic), right?

Right.

Thanks. I'll be getting a FTDI adapter and cables to flash it.

Hi, I successfully flashed. Do you have any idea how to add it to Home Assistant?

Thanks!

LouisLee985 commented 1 year ago

No idea. The servers like Home Assistant or bridges like HomeBridge are not necessary. Add it to the Apple home app directly.
