Also had difficulties using Broadlink RM4 pro, in my case with a ceiling fan.  
Then got myself a SwitchBot Hub Mini, and problem solved. Also cheaper than the RM4 pro

Hi, I started working on a fork of this application to migrate it to Homey sdk3, after a request by a user here in the comunity, after tinkering with the Airthings BLE application.

You can check it out here: [https://github.com/fkmeland/com.broadlink/tree/feature/homey-sdk3-migration](https://github.com/fkmeland/com.broadlink/tree/feature/homey-sdk3-migration)

I don’t have any Broadlink devices, so I’m unable to test out my changes to the code base. The application runs, and gets to the pairing menu, but I suspect there are issues with pairing and the flow cards, but I need access to a Homey with Broadlink devices to test, or someone here to test the code.

Wow, great news and thank you Peter for letting us know ! Unfortunately as this took way too long, I have switched already to in Homey IR functionality but who knows, in case of 2nd TV, this could be very useful ! 😉

@fkmeland 👍 👍 👍 👍 thank you for your effort, however, any reason you don’t push it to Athom store? @Remko is the developer of [Broadlink App for Homey | Homey](https://homey.app/en-us/app/com.broadlink/Broadlink/), maybe he is fine to transfer it to you, if not maintained anymore ?

Good to hear you found another working solution 😊

I just did the migration so that the community would have a working app again for the new Homey pro, I’m not the right person to maintain this application as I do not have any broadlink devices. I’m not a Homey app developer, and I do not own this project, and I don’t consider the migration as finished until the app is tested against at least one device, which is the reasons for not pushing it to athom store. My hopes would be that the original author might take a pull request and merge my changes into his project.

Will Broadlink app come available for the homey pro? I can not install it at the moment in the new homely pro.

If you don’t know how to use it - search for CLI install on forum.

PC requirements to test out my fork of the application:

- GIT (or download the code as zip)
  - Zip-file: [https://github.com/fkmeland/com.broadlink/zipball/feature/homey-sdk3-migration/](https://github.com/fkmeland/com.broadlink/zipball/feature/homey-sdk3-migration/)

- Homey CLI to install or run the application
  - Homey CLI requires nodejs installed
  - See [Node.js](https://nodejs.org/en) or use a package manager like NVM etc. See [Installing Node.js via package manager | Node.js](https://nodejs.org/en/download/package-manager)
  - See [Getting Started - Homey Apps SDK](https://apps.developer.homey.app/the-basics/getting-started) for Homey cli install etc

To test my fork out on your homey, you will either need git to checkout my code or download as a zip on your machine.

Using git:

```bash
git clone https://github.com/fkmeland/com.broadlink.git
cd com.broadlink
git checkout feature/homey-sdk3-migration
homey app run 

```

Using zip:

```bash
unzip fkmeland-com.broadlink-917e164.zip
cd fkmeland-com.broadlink-917e164
homey app run

```

To install the application to homey you need to run homey app install, the run command only runs the application temporary for debugging purposes. Theese are rough instructions, not tested 😅

Hi fmkmeland,

I would donate 25 Euro if you will add the code for a working RM4 Pro. Perhaps others can follow so that you can buy one 😉  
I can test the RM4 Pro stuff 😉

I can see what I can do, no need for donations. I see there is a python cli tool project with support for theese devices, so I should be able to port the code for theese devices.

Just FYI, the Broadlinkred app should support the RM4 Pro already, but also needs to be updated to SDKv3. So… not sure which update is easier/faster

Some RM3 mini’s were sold as ‘red’ model instead of ‘black’. Hence the Broadlinkred app  
No clue if any Homey Pro23 owns a red RM3 mini here  
I do have a ‘red’ one, but not a Pro 23 😅

Aah, yes sorry. I have added the rm4-mini device to another branch in my repo. (feature/add-new-devices) (Thanks to the broadlinkred project)

As I understand by looking at the Python code the device rm4 mini and pro are pretty similar on how to communicate with them. I will try and work on it later tonight.
