@strawberry-3-141

it’s safe now to update module and app?

@bminer1 you shouldn’t edit the files, remove the module directory completely, clone again, put your config in config.js if you dont succeed send me a private message and i will help you

@lolobyte, still you should uninstall the app first before upgrading to the newest prototype, but the magic mirror module should be fine with just updating

i don’t know why but i had again problems scanning the qr code on the Mirror.

After the qr code automated was hidden and all modules started i went to my laptop starting a vnc session and opening the qr code with mirage and the scan was simle and fast done, the app has synchronized an it works now.

Maybe the qr picture is to dark or to small, i don’t know what’s the mater with qr scanning on my iPhone 6s.

@lolobyte next time you could try to use the config option qrSize

Im googling how to remove the module directory but its not really clear. Is it as simple as deleting the module folder or is there more to it?

Hi Strawberry 3.141, I am still having an issue with using the mobile app.
Below is the steps i took based on the install guide from the git and deleting the folder.

Here is the install:

pi@raspberrypi:~/MagicMirror/modules $ git clone https://github.com/fewieden/MMM-Mobile.git
Cloning into ‘MMM-Mobile’…
remote: Counting objects: 84, done.
remote: Compressing objects: 100% (21/21), done.
remote: Total 84 (delta 12), reused 0 (delta 0), pack-reused 63
Unpacking objects: 100% (84/84), done.
Checking connectivity… done.
pi@raspberrypi:~/MagicMirror/modules $

Then the Dependencies

pi@raspberrypi:~/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-Mobile $ npm install
mmm-mobile@1.0.0 preinstall /home/pi/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-Mobile
node scripts/preinstall.js
Creating Backup for config.js!
Saving updated config.js!
mmm-mobile@1.0.0 /home/pi/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-Mobile
├─┬ async@2.1.4
│ └── lodash@4.17.4
├── moment@2.17.1
├── qr-image@3.2.0
└── simple-git@1.65.0
pi@raspberrypi:~/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-Mobile $

add to config.js file

“modules”: [
{
“module”: “alert”
},
{
module: “MMM-Mobile”
},

the QRcode popped up but still would not connect
in the app, i put in my IP address and it said Connected for a milisecond then showed could not connect again

problem solved after adding ip to config.js
