Hey I want to do this for my home can you assist me in making this app, I'm not no developer etc neither do I have experience in android studio, like everything in my home is tied to smartlife app, how can I make this possible?
Nice, Do you have an outlet somewhere above charging the tablet? I'm trying to find a solid solution to bring power the the tablet without having to charge it here and there.
I had a USB extension running over the door to an outlet. Now I have a USB extension run through a hole in the wall to a charger in the garage. This explains it all in pictures. imgur.com/a/tBaSB
I'm reading usage directly from my electric meter with rtlamr github.com/bemasher/rtlamr I wrote a python wrapper to push it into my homeassistant over mqtt github.com/ragingcomputer/amridm2mqtt if you're just graphing, the author of rtlamr has a tool for collecting directly to influxdb github.com/bemasher/rtlamr-collect
I assume you're talking about in the dashboard? This happens completely outside of OpenHAB. The camera display in the dashboard is a static image grabbed every 10 seconds using the camera widget. You'll need to update jobs/cameras.rb with the details for your camera github.com/grubernaut/camera-widget/blob/master/jobs/cameras.rb#L6 Then add the widget to your dashboard github.com/grubernaut/camera-widget/blob/master/dashboards/cameras.erb#L5 An example of one of my dashboards github.com/ragingcomputer/openhab-dashboard/blob/master/dashboards/default.erb#L50
Thank you for your tutorial. I have slightly modified the code of your app to allow JS confirm and alert because it was used in some parts of habpanel.
Hi! How do you include the cctv camera video feed in the app. Are there some specific company's cams you are using or any can be used. I'm asking because I already have a Cameras wired to a DVR and 2 IP wireless cameras. Thanks.
The tablet is just displaying a web page. That web page comes from dashing, specifically the dashboard customized by smar000. Images are updated every 10 seconds. github.com/smar000/openhab-dashboard The cameras are defined in the cameras job github.com/smar000/openhab-dashboard/blob/master/jobs/cameras.rb And camera is included in the dashboard github.com/smar000/openhab-dashboard/blob/master/dashboards/default.erb#L46 Any camera that can serve up a static image will work. Check out the iSpy camera page for image URLs www.ispyconnect.com/sources.aspx or google the make/model of your camera/DVR and image url.
I am hoping this info is still good. I want to try it. Just wondering if you have any suggestions for a security camera popup? Currently i have on my TV's running code a security camera overlay like this. forums.homeseer.com/showthread.php?t=173650 When motion is detected from my security system it triggers a script that tells the kodi addon to pop up the motion triggered camera over my video. Wondering if you have any suggestions for doing the same on this? or if maybe there was a way to do a sliding css div over dashing or something.
Alarm system. The door sensors are wired to my alarm panel. The keypad is just outside of the view of the camera. There was an alarm in my house when I moved in. ADT installed a Safewatch Pro 3000, which is almost the same as a Vista 20p. I have an AlarmDecoder by NuTech to interface with the home automation. Works with both OpenHAB and Home Assistant. If I were to do it again, I'd probably look at an EnvisaLink EVL-4 interface instead.
I had trouble understanding the changes in z-wave when moving from OpenHAB 1.8 to 2.0. Since I had to look at all my automations anyway, I switched. I switched because open source, the community is also very active, and I have friends running Home Assistant doing pretty cool things. I probably would have been happy sticking with OpenHAB too. I recommend you go read the help documentation for any platform you’re considering and go with whatever looks to make sense to you.
I have a sonos player google chrome cast and some luton caesta switches can you tell me where i get started on having a wall controller that can control these things? any help appreciated need tablet etc
I've switched platforms since I made this video. I'm now running Home Assistant. Check out www.home-assistant.io/ It looks like the devices you mentioned are supported. www.home-assistant.io/components/lutron_caseta/ www.home-assistant.io/components/media_player.cast/ www.home-assistant.io/components/media_player.sonos/ Once you have Home Assistant running, you'll also need AppDaemon to make the dashboards. appdaemon.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ I'm running old kindle fire tablets, but the new ones are pretty locked down. I recommend finding something else. Check out this thread for ideas . community.home-assistant.io/t/hadashboard-tablet-hardware-options/13355 Finally, I'm not sure my TabletFrame is a good fit for most folks. Take a look at WallPanel or FullyKiosk.
Thank you for this solution. I've 2 Tablets installed, based on this, and it works pretty smooth. Now the only thing that bothers me, is that when the Display turns on, everytime the site loads new and i've to wait for about 6 seconds. I've seen that the same happens when you walk in from the garage at the beginning. Do you meanwhile have any solution for that? Thanks for any help
That was intentional. Whenever TabletFrame gets focus again, might as well make sure the page is current. Specifically, I call reloadPage(); within onResume() because my dashboard page was crappy about updating sometimes. It was a quick and dirty hack, just like the rest of this project :-) For something a little more refined, take a look at github.com/WallPanel-Project/wallpanel-android or www.ozerov.de/fully-kiosk-browser/
+Hette Feenstra It should work with this if it works on android stock browser. It's nothing more than Android system webview with a couple timers to refresh and go fullscreen.
This just displays a webpage. If you run Home Assistant, smappe is a sensor and sensors should be display-able with appdaemon/hadashboard. Weather underground is doable with a custom widget. community.home-assistant.io/t/hadashboard-weather-with-wunderground/25825/12
oh thanks for the reply, I was trying to figure out a way to put all the info that I receive from the house in one panel, I got one laptop that was running 5 VM of bluestacks with each app from each monitor that I have at home so I was able to see the entire sensors at home, but this panel is amazing, looks like I will have a lot of time to figure out how to connect everything together, look what I did hardforum.com/threads/post-your-workstations-2016.1887080/page-8#post-1042912905 I am hotsauce2007
This is a great video. I love the way TabletFrame looks, this is my first expsoure to OpenHab, I'm got Wemo and SmartThings and make my own tablet ui with zooper widgets, but this looks much cleaner so I'm tempted to try it out.
It’s way too simple for that, I never added a way to configure it. I found a couple other options I like better anyway. Take a look at Fully Kiosk and WallPanel.
that is the error 21:39 Executing tasks: [:app:assembleRelease] 21:39 Gradle build finished with 1 error(s) in 554ms 21:39 Generate Signed APK: Errors while building APK. You can find the errors in the 'Messages' view
When you opened the project in Android Studio, did you allow the Gradle plugin to Update? If not, try to close and re-open project and upgrade Gradle plugin. If that doesn't work, at the bottom of android studio, open "0: Messages" on the left side, and "Gradle Console" toward the right. This will likely give you more detailed errors to search for.
nice videocan you tell me this things1) what model is your camera2) how can set your weather tile3) what exactly programs need to create my own apk only android studio?4) you must create a video how you have set the tasker before the backup step by stepthank a lot
That’s a great option for testing but will burn in if left on. My dev tablet gets noticeable ghosting after a couple hours. Turning on the screen only when it’s useful has allowed the tablet on the wall to last for almost 3 years so far
That is the downside of the nice Samsung OLED displays. Cheaper tablets with LCD screens aren't prone to burn-in but have much worse viewing angles. Ref. www.androidauthority.com/screen-burn-in-801760/
To fix this: Click "Save the current configuration..." and then switch to your actual configuration. Then just delete the unneeded configuration and done.
Dude you are the man, sick setup and tutorial.
Hey I want to do this for my home can you assist me in making this app, I'm not no developer etc neither do I have experience in android studio, like everything in my home is tied to smartlife app, how can I make this possible?
That's a clever setup man, A+

Keep up the great work
nice, what are you using to monitor power usage, I want to know how much power I use solar and how much from grid, individually.
I'm reading usage directly from my electric meter with rtlamr github.com/bemasher/rtlamr I wrote a python wrapper to push it into my homeassistant over mqtt github.com/ragingcomputer/amridm2mqtt if you're just graphing, the author of rtlamr has a tool for collecting directly to influxdb github.com/bemasher/rtlamr-collect
Hello, I am trying to do this using my mac. I'm unable to access the internal storage on my Fire Tablet. Any suggestion??
Im trying to figure out how to add cameras to the openhab. Could you point me in the right direction?
I assume you're talking about in the dashboard? This happens completely outside of OpenHAB. The camera display in the dashboard is a static image grabbed every 10 seconds using the camera widget.
You'll need to update jobs/cameras.rb with the details for your camera github.com/grubernaut/camera-widget/blob/master/jobs/cameras.rb#L6
Then add the widget to your dashboard
github.com/grubernaut/camera-widget/blob/master/dashboards/cameras.erb#L5
An example of one of my dashboards
github.com/ragingcomputer/openhab-dashboard/blob/master/dashboards/default.erb#L50
Seems that Tablet frame works like action tiles but without the charge. I see you have camera's displayed so would Nest cam's work aswell? Thx
Other languages than english are available for this aplication?
Thank you for your tutorial. I have slightly modified the code of your app to allow JS confirm and alert because it was used in some parts of habpanel.
Can you provide me your edited code ? Also i have problem with JS. Thanks

When you open the door there are three beeps that follow; where are they coming from and how are they triggered?
Alarm system. The door sensors are wired to my alarm panel. The keypad is just outside of the view of the camera.

So you have the electrical system of your home tied into the tablet ?
Hello, can I use this app with Smartthings and Konnected?
Take a look at ActionTiles and Fully Kiosk. www.ozerov.de/fully-kiosk-browser www.actiontiles.com
Hey can you talk about why you switched to HA? I’ve been trying to decide which is best for me.
I had trouble understanding the changes in z-wave when moving from OpenHAB 1.8 to 2.0. Since I had to look at all my automations anyway, I switched. I switched because open source, the community is also very active, and I have friends running Home Assistant doing pretty cool things. I probably would have been happy sticking with OpenHAB too.

Hi can I use this also for HomeAssistant on Pi devices? Looks nice!
+Hette Feenstra It should work with this if it works on android stock browser. It's nothing more than Android system webview with a couple timers to refresh and go fullscreen.
can you add weather underground info and smappe info to the panel?
This just displays a webpage.

WELL THAT WAS AS CLEAR AS MUD I WONDER WHAT TABLET YOU ARE USING AND I STILL WONDER????????
hi tasket now cost 4euro.... there is a free app ??? thank you
This is a great video. I love the way TabletFrame looks, this is my first expsoure to OpenHab, I'm got Wemo and SmartThings and make my own tablet ui with zooper widgets, but this looks much cleaner so I'm tempted to try it out.
TabletFrame is just an android browser. It just displays a web dashboard.
Check out www.actiontiles.com/ for a smartthings web dashboard
Good work. Keep it up.
Hi! Thx for the project! Why not putting it to the store?
It’s way too simple for that, I never added a way to configure it.
I found a couple other options I like better anyway. Take a look at Fully Kiosk and WallPanel.
No one knows it's simple inside ;)
I can't find WallPanel. ( Can you share a link?
BTW, how did you get rid of a top menu? (The one where you can choose dashboard)

Thank you for the video, It is really helpful. Can I use my actiontiles account in the dashboard URL instead of creating one in OPENHAB?
Awesomeness but if I only knew what the hell you did there.... I got lost
Me too...
Me Three ..Wow it looks like something I need but where to begin?
Developer Options > Stay awake.
Screen wont shut off while charging (it will dim)
Some models reset option to off after reboot
That’s a great option for testing but will burn in if left on. My dev tablet gets noticeable ghosting after a couple hours. Turning on the screen only when it’s useful has allowed the tablet on the wall to last for almost 3 years so far

Nice Video. But I can't choose my configuration in my HABPanel.
To fix this: Click "Save the current configuration..." and then switch to your actual configuration. Then just delete the unneeded configuration and done.
This is great
