'Dromotica' app for controlling Domoticz from Android

[JohanEikelenboom]

Looks like I found a bug in the android app:
I have a KaKu dimmer. When I use a remote to switch off the dimmer (using an event in Domoticz) the dimmer is displayed off in Domoticz, but still showing on at 100% in Dromotica. Clicking the off-button in Dromotica is will display off for a couple of seconds, and than flips back to on (the lamp itself stays off)....

A have exactly the same problem over here.
Lights are off, allso in Domoticz but are on in Dromotica.

After switching off in Dromotica, the (Dromotica) dimmer goes on after a few seconds.
(but not in real life or Domotic the light stays off)
Because of this, the app became useless for me. In the beginning this was not the case.
It looks like this only occurs with a dimmer.

@Sebastian, are you stil working on Dromotica?

@Sebastian, are you stil working on Dromotica?

Yes, I'm still working on it.

Dimmers are working perfectly with the new update..
Thanks for the great app

[JohanEikelenboom]

Confirmed: Dimmers are working. Now when I leave home everyting is turned off, also in Dromotica

@Sebastian, are you stil working on Dromotica?

Yes, I'm still working on it.

Thank you for your work!
Tbe last update solved the problem, Dromotica is nice and easy to work with.

[sebas]

Great! Finally got those dimmers working

Just installed your app and like it a lot. But the widget lacks a very basic thing. Can you please display witch switch or witch scene it is for? At least a couple of letters from the name. Hard to keep track with only the color.

Hi, what's the latest with https support?
I'm running domoticz 1.1492 and can access using https in a browser. I have just configured a startssl certificate and get no certificate errors (also fine using an ssl checker).

I get:
Error reading switches
The server did not return a valid response

I have double checked my credentials, url and port etc
Thanks

[SEALen]

Hmm I upgraded to Domoticz 1.1396 (latest stable) today and now adding new widgets won't work at all. When you click the choose switch or choose scene it craches with a Java.lang.null pointer exception. Everything else seems fine though.

Is it possible now that you have great working app to implement the security panel with a native android keyboard/numeric?
I've been clicking around in Android Development Toolkit with Eclipse but the pieces are not falling into place...yet! I'm not a programmer but it has my curiosity.

I'm still running 1.429, maybe it's in the new version of Domoticz without any problems. I'll have to check after I upgrade.
You're connect to the correct port and the certificate you got is for the domain name you're using to connect to Domoticz? I'm using SSL when I'm not on my home network and the unsecure connection when I'm on my local network. This because my certificate is not for my local ip-address, only for the domain name I use remotely.

I've got requests to add the security panel and it's on the todo list. For now I'm focussing on weather, camera's and a tablet version. I'm very busy with other projects, setting up my own business, and work so I have very little time and the moment. It's coming

For the widgets. They need a redesign both technically and how they look and work. Only icons doesn't work out very well.

Great to hear! Good luck with your business and keep up the good work!

Yes, the certificate is for my domain. I can connect to domoticz using ssl when I'm off my home network from any browser and the certificate is accepted with no errors. I'm using port 443 which is forwarded in my router

Is is maybe also possible to add the possibility to manage multiple domoticz systems?

[fwehrle]

It works nice for me, but with a StartSSL certificate.
Maybe it is the Self Signed cert., or maybe the proxy settings... (I use nGinx on https and port 443, with proxy authentification (none on Domoticz))

Yes, this would be a nice option to add.

For example: I have two Yamaha receivers in my home and they can be controlled by a Android App. When you start the App, you can choose which receiver you want to control.

Dear Sebastien,

Would it be possible to have multiple login?
I have several users in Domoticz.
And it would be nice if a users also only can use his switches with the app, which they may operate.
Now I log in with another user, who can use all the switches, while I have known to them. Domoticz in only a few switches

And would it be possible to have a room plan to add.

For me (StartSSL certificate on "high" port) the "Secure" option doesn't work (triple-checked all login/pass info).
"Insecure" on local network works ok.
