I am trying now XMPP supported firmware update 4.15.206 for developpers and local use only.

An yes I can control my heating air conditioner and all multimedia again now via domoticz and google home mini connected via controlicz again.

That was where I bought the "Harmony Ultimate" special for.

Ps. Whem blocking harmony.com you not only block the automatic firmware updates, but also the sign in and authenticate.

See https://community.logitech.com/s/questi ... rabilities a new firmware will come in januari with XMMP control for those who needs it.

Actually, the method we currently use IS the (raw) socket way and it uses a protocol that is a somewhat sloppy variation on Jabber (XMPP). I'm not sure how dropping that entrance would improve security, but it is somewhat weird that the Hub apparently supports two different methods.

Looking at the websockets method, which is socket operation encapsulated in HTTP, it appears that the message format should in fact be simpler to handle than the old one. Unfortunately there do not appear to be standardized libraries for using websockets in every programming language, including C++, so establishing a working connection is a bit of a challenge.

I flashed the beta which has resumed harmony functionality, thank god.
Does anyone know how to stop the hub auto updating? as I don't remember manually updating it which broke functionality in the first place.
Cheers.

You'll need to run something like pi-hole or another dns-server.
blocklist:
svcs.myharmony.com
pubsub.pubnub.com
content.dhg.myharmony.com
logging.dhg.myharmony.com
myharmony.com
sus.dhg.myharmony.com
Or just block the hub connecting to the internet. Edit your Activities can be a problem, i didn't test that.

You shoudn't have to block internet access if on v210 as the version number is higher.
