Alexa: German umlauts don't work anymore #1151
Comments
I have the same problem, but maybe i can deliver a little work-around: If i connect a Echo Dot 3rd gen, and refresh the devices, all umlauts are correct (maybe you have to search twice) again. If i disconnect the 3rd gen, a few minutes later, umlauts are broken again. So, it has nothing to with the ha-bridge itself, at least that's my suggestion. |
same problem here. my umlauts dosnt work anymore |
Had the same problem, solved it by changing the port from 80 to 81 weeks ago. Ever since I only have dimmable devices and Umlaute work fine. |
Same Problem here. Devicename is "Verstärker" |
I did solve this using |
How exactly do i do this? Is that an alternative to ha-bridge or did you insert that code somewhere? I'd like to get this working again! Thanks in advance! |
I use "Versterker" instead of "Verstärker" and it works fine. |
Is there something like a Workaround-Award? I‘d like to suggest you 😁 Thanks anyway, but I’ll continue to search for a solution 😉 |
I am also looking for a real solution and don't want any strange spelling mistakes. 😀 btw: Why is this error still marked as a question? |
In the end I‘m not sure if the change made a difference. What I did to fix the umlauts was to power off my echo dot 2nd gen and start the search from alexa.amazon.com then. This fixed it for me. My echo or the dot 3rd gen didn’t break the umlauts. |
As long as theres no other solution, heres my workaround: |
I changed the port to 81, 8081. But no success. It's always showing in the alexa web interface: |
well renaming it in alexa solves this. actually since i have so many devices i use routines anyway most of the time. |
Hi because I'm from Switzerland, I don't have the APP and in the Webinterface I can't see any option for renaming. |
As has long been known, devices are created twice. Once as "Dimmable Light" and once as "Royal Philips Electronics intelligentes Gerät".
So far this has caused little problems, the duplicate devices were only seen in the web app and not in the Android app.
Since the end of October, devices with umlaut are displayed twice in the Android app and no longer work.
They appear once correctly with umlaut and once incorrectly in the Royal-Philips-version with incorrectly coded umlaut. Example "Küchenschrank" as screenshot:
Dimmable Light:
Royal Philips Electronis intelligentes Gerät:
