V2.2.5-2 looks like they broke it again #36

My Roomba has had its firmware upgraded again and dorita980 seems broken. Also the app seems to only connect via the net now, running node to query it just gives an empty reply, and ports 1883 and 1883 appear closed. Knew I should have bought a different make with an open APi!!

According to https://github.com/koalazak/dorita980/issues/31 dorita980 stills works on 2.2.5-2. If you has the official app open, then dorita980 cant connect to the robot. Close all other conections, soft reset the robot (10 seconds CLEAN button) and try again.

Is this locally or via the cloud?

locally. Cloud api does not work yet with 2.x.x.

sheppy99 commented 7 years ago

That worked - what's the easiest way of stopping these clowns from updating it again? Presumably banning the robot from Internet access doesn't cause any adverse effects?

koalazak commented 7 years ago

If you block the internet connectio to your robot then, the history will not be available and you can not control the robot from outside your home. Its good for me :p

sheppy99 commented 7 years ago

Given that with the new firmware. the robot seems to shutdown its local comms the moment the app has connected, the apps not really usable now anyway if I want to use the APi with my home automation, so nothing more is lost with blocking it. I much preferred it before they started meddling!
