Robomow binding

@arjanmels my T-beam arrive today :grinning: I’m really curious about your software. Any idea when you would be sharing it?

@promy I had done delays due to other activities. The BLE communication works and I made a start with the webinterface.

If you want I can share in its current state as private project. Let me know.

@arjanmels: yes, i would be interested!

I am also interested. Already have the ttgo purchased :slight_smile:

@arjanmels: i started reading the code and it looks very nice. However…it’s a few stages to advanced for my current knowledge :wink: but i’m trying to understand it…i’ll get there eventually :wink:
Any idea’s when you would release a version where one could get the info from the mower?

I’m very interested in this, since I need the ā€œmanual mowingā€ function, which was available in earlier versions of the official app but not anymore in 2.xx;
if your device is rooted you can find also relevant data in the ā€œrobomow_preferences.xmlā€ which might be accessible directly on the mobile or in the Titanium-Backup file ā€œcom.lehavi.robomow-xxx-yyy.tar.gzā€ under ā€œcom.lehavi.robomow-xxx-yyy.tar.gz\com.lehavi.robomow-xxx-yyy.tar\data\data\com.lehavi.robomow.\shared_prefsā€;
it looks like this:

maybe this file can be use for the authentication to lock in into the device…

I have to say that basically I would only need to circumvent the missing manual mowing via BlueTooth…
since I’m inexperienced with Android coding, it will take me month (if I succeed at all)… until then my lawn will be a jungle… :astonished:

hi did anyone mange to get this to work??

Hello arjanmels,
how would I like to control my robomow via Bluetooth instead of app.
I would like to build a Bluetooth, Wifi, MQTT bridge via ESP32. I am a little familiar with the ESP, but unfortunately not yet with Bluetooth.
Therefore I would be grateful for any help. Is your source code public or can you send me a start code?
Thank you very much!

Hi, I published my code as-is on: https://github.com/arjanmels/RoboMowRC.
It is still rough around the edges and I havn’t got round to it the last half year.

Arjan

will be this project continuid?

Hey, any devs here?
Today the code was published in a draft version, hoping to get some more people on the project, its written in cpp, but i think this could be the start of an integration in HA for older types of robomow, using BT connection

Code is here

I think you posted in the wrong community.
This is about openHAB, not HA …

its based on mqtt , so doesnt mather if for HA or Openhab, we just need someone helping to get the code working, it can be used on ESP devices, its now in draft only

Hey @arjanmels or @matt2 or @drbytes or…

I am using the ESP32 integration above, the only part missing is to turn on the blades when you move the mower to manual mow…

Do you perhaps know the BT command? It was available in the older Robomow app

Thnx
