*After upgrading, please check whether both Settings ā APP Version and OS Version are at 4.0.0 or above. If not, please continue upgrading.
This cross-version update has made many optimizations and adjustments to the device functions. If you encounter any issues, please feel free to report them in this post at any time. We will address your concerns promptly or release a fix version. Thank you for your continued support of NSPanel Pro.
Currently the V4.0.X version has only been rolled out to some NSPanel Pro 120 versions. Once the issues are resolved and stable performance is ensured, we will extend the update to the 86 version as well as other 120 version devices that have not yet received it.
We have released version 4.0.2 with fixes for stability and reboot issues, and our team is continuing with issue reproduction and testing.
Version 4.0.X introduced F-Droid, and we have received many requests from users eager to try it early. We will share the estimated release time in this post based on ongoing feedback and testing.
So the positive feedback refers, for example, to the addition of F-Droid. Fair enough. That makes sense. Itās just a pity that the European version of NSPanel Pro is sitting on the sidelines.
Yes the version 4.0.X with the introduction of F-Droid is a great improvement if you use third party system like in my case i use HA and F-droid has give me the possibility to install the HA companion and results are good, great stability, faster response and smoother control, but the sonoff OS have presented bugs in need of attention from devs. i just downloaded and installed version 4.0.2 and i hope that at least some issues are fixed as mentioned in the release note
Thank you for your support. NSPanel Pro will continue to address issues through version updates. Welcome to try the F-Droid feature and share your suggestions.
Iāve installed the update to 4.0 and didnāt have any issues, the miniRBS also work, but in the settings it shows as version 3.1.2 and it doesnāt detect the updatesā¦.
After the upgrade, Zigbee T&H sensor data passed from the NSPanel Pro is misinterpreted and displayed with a shifted decimal point (e.g. 960.0°C instead of 9.6°C, 8000% RH instead of 80). Interestingly, this issue affects only the NSPanel - elsewhere (e.g. eWeLink Web, App, or SonoffLAN) the values are shown correctly.
The screensaver with the digital clock may look unchanged at first glance, but itās no longer vertically centered. Additionally, the digit size is noticeably smaller, making it harder to read from a distance. I suggest reverting to the layout used in version 3.x.
And while weāre at it, let me repeat a question thatās been asked before: why is it still not possible to configure the screensaver from the App?
I agree. This needs to be addressed somehow, because even the most minimalistic launcher doesnāt really help. Ideally, we should be able to create screens with at least one pinned app. Iām not even dreaming of adding tiles to the home screen
But itās all ahead of us. After all, weāre only just beginning to explore F-Droid. The eWeLink guys are a creative bunch. Just give them a bug and a coffee, and theyāll invent a feature. With a bit of our nudging, theyāll surely cook up something useful. Probably even before we finish complaining about it.
Iām using version 4.04.
I have installed Home Assistant app, works great but Iām wondering if the screensaver functionality will work with the HA app running?
While updating I had many crashes, but now Iām on 4.0.4 and it does crash sometimes, out of the blue it reboots and sometimes canāt power up again so I just disconnect and connect again. But way less times than before.
Iāve connected many different devices, zigbee, matter by sonoff, matter by third-parties, and let me say the connection (at least by now) with matter third parties has improved A LOT. Devices are always online and working fine with scenes, reliable and also with a fast response, even when powering off and on, the panel gets them fast (before this update it took a lot of time to recognize them, if it finally did that most of the times it didnāt).
The only thing I notice now is that I added a button on the main page for a TP Matter device and it wonāt go blue while on, always stays showing as off even if itās activated. I can see it blue though if I go to the āall the devicesā page.
Currently the V4.0.X version has only been rolled out to some NSPanel Pro 86&120 versions. Did you receive the update? If not, please send me the Device ID of your NSPanel Pro through private message. Iāll arrange the firmware OTA for you.
