look like LG changed something on their server, you can use login command instead of auth to login

thinq login [username] [password] -c US -l en-US

I can confirm the same issue as @coneybeare. @nVuln, so does this mean only plain lg logins will work? I connect to thinkq via the Google account authentication, so seems using login isn't sufficient.

you should create new LG account and migrate all devices to new account at this time, we can't login as thirdparty service, LG changed their login system

I might be wrong, but in the past I thought that I got this to work by setting up a second account with just a username/password, and then assigning access to the home from the google authenticated account to the new account. So this gives you the best of both worlds.

I have no idea if this still works. (Or if I am dreaming that this ever happened).

I followed @malwcal 's advice and it worked for my situation. So probably not a dream after all!

To be honest I was fairly confident that’s what worked for me. But I never understood why more people hadn’t discovered this method.

To me it actually makes sense to do it this way: have a separate account for the HomeKit integration. And then use sign in with google/whatever for using the ThinQ app.

Actually in my case I have both an password account AND a sign-in-with google account using the same @gmail.com address. LG treats them as separate accounts.

@nVuln Does it make sense to update the documentation to let people know they can setup a second account to handle the case where they originally used a sign-in-with account?

[nVuln]

@malwcal yup, that is great solution, I'll update documentation when I have free time, thank you so much 🥰

@nVuln does the second account have to use the same email address? I'm asking because I used sign in w/ Apple and hide my email.

no need to use same email as 2nd account, just create new account by any email you have, make sure it's LG account
