I searched for login issues and could not find any

Version of the custom_component

Current version

Configuration

NONE - I cannot complete installtion as I cannot get it to login to the new Midea "SmartHome" location.

Describe the bug

I start the installation of the integration.

It finds the Midea Cube Dehumidifier.

I installed the iPhone App from Midea that is now called "SmartHome".

I was able to successfully create my account on the app, logged off my account on the app, and re-logged in. So I know I have the correct email address and password.

The integration does NOT show the new SmartHome login as an option, so I picked MYSmartHome and entered email address and password and it fails. I tried ALL the other login options and they ALL fail.

reports - Failed to login, account or password was wrong. It is not as I verified email address and password using app.

Debug log


None found?  integration fails to complete installation.

Unable to connect to Midea cloud API (Too many retries while calling session-restart, last error value is illegal. (3004)).

If the above fixes this, can someone please merge it so I can redownload this custom component in HA and get this working? I literally just bought a Midea dehumidifier based on the existence of this component and now I can't even get it working in HA.

If there are no plans to merge it anytime soon, can someone tell me how to go about getting the latest code into HA manually so I can finish setting this up?

Thank you in advance!

Can you please check with new version (0.9.0).

Works for me now with 0.9.0.
It did not work with the one before: 0.8.13 (Too many retries while calling session-restart, last error value is illegal. (3004))

I chose the MSmartHome entry.

I forgot the most important part: Thank you very much for your work!

Just a note for anyone else coming across this:
SmartHome has a 16 character password limit on login. But that isn't enforced when setting your password.
If your password is longer than 16 characters, then you have to reset it to login anywhere.
