### Version 3.1.34 — Prevent future JSON corruption, Power measurement adjustments when powering off SP3s sockets

### Version 3.1.35 — Ensure corrupted JSON is erased, so that device can be re-learned without re-adding

### Version 3.1.36 — DataStore small fix - allow to delete all commands stored

_Note, it might happen that previous JSON corruption will appear right after update, but the update is not cause of it. Seems corruption occurred when learned commands were renamed all at once, which shall not happen in the future.However during update/app restart, the drivers re-read JSON…_

As always, any problems, report back please, with logs.

Next week I will replace old SDK2 version, still waiting for some feedback on RM2 Pro functionalities.

When it works, it’s a pleasure to read such feedback , thank you. Still, it’s somehow quite time and money demanding hobby (mostly due to the device purchases I don’t really need and feeding hungry ChatGPT as I’m just amateur developer 😆). Trying to decode and understand Payloads and data, despite of existing integrations from other platforms, has been real pain for me.

**Anyway, any users of RM (2) Plus (older generations), I expect your logs and feedback, what works and what do not.** So far only little but confusing feedback from Hermann\_Post, which I’m clarifying, but would be happy for more logs, so that I can have a look prior submitting live version (as I don’t want to get overloaded by suddenly all people coming and saying “it’s broken” 😉 )

I had some issues with 2x RM4 mini’s. The first one worked perfect, the second one did not work and gave an error icon in Homey. After trying to exchange the two units the second one worked and the first did not. So it should be something wrong in Homey or the app. After some weeks of other things to do and you making some App updates I tried again today. Bot are working fine now.

So, my guess is that the JSON updates are working and fixing for 2 same devices as well. Just wanted to let you know. 👍

Thanks for sharing. You are always welcome to send diag. logs so that I can check if it’s right. Anyway, beware that error icon will disappear, because I had to implement JSON file erase in version 3.1.35, **when corrupted**. So in that case, all your signals will be gone but you would not have to re-add device again. In normal circumstances that corruption should hopefully not occur again.

I have an RM3 Mini Red Bean. The device is added to Homey, and I can learn IR codes. However, when I use it in a flow, it doesn’t work. Any idea why?

Try to reconnect your Mini (cut the power) and/or reset it. If it will not work, try to send diag.

What could be the reason that the thermostat values ​​do not change except when the Broadlink program is restarted?

Speaking about Broalink Hysen ? I don’t know, considering this code is pretty old one and you are maybe the only user using it. Try to send the diag. log right after the app restart and then when values are not updating.

There are air conditioners that are controlled via the broadlink module (AC Freedom app). Is it possible to add them?

Not sure I understand, can you elaborate ? Which device type, which Broadlink module ?  
But frankly, I doubt.

You are right that the existing libraries could be enhanced to support also Air Conditioners like Dunham bush,  
Rcool Solo, Akai 9000BTU, Kenwood, Tornado X (2019 and up) using the references you shared. Unfortunately I don’t have any of those devices myself to debug the code on it and time invested into it, considering there are only two mentions of AC Freedom app on this forum, will be not worth it. ;-(

Not sure I understand you, unfortunately you replied 4 years old post.

- restart your RM4C mini (unplug)
- connect your RM4C Mini via app on mobile
- add it as RM4 Mini
- send the debug
- try to learn IR → send the debug again

Anyone here can test his RM4C Mini and share his experience + debug logs ? The best in case IR learning works for you…

Thank you.
