How To insert a SIM Card on the Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 7.0 GT-P3100

To insert the SIM Card, locate the SIM card slot on the left-hand-side of the device. There is a cover on the SIM card slot that you need to open before you’re able to insert the SIM card. Use the tiny gap between the cover and the edge of slot compartment to pull out the cover with your finger nail.

Then, with gold-coloured contacts of your SIM card facing downwards, just push it into the slot until it reaches the end. It should make a click sound when fully inserted. Remember to position the cut-edge of the SIM card exactly like it’s shown in the picture. NOTE that after you've inserted the SIM, the device has to be rebooted (same when it's taken out).

Based on experience, I DO NOT recommend using a plastic  adapter to make an iPhone micro SIM larger as this may jam in the SIM card bay possibly requiring disassembly to remove.

Using ESPEasy with Home Assistant via MQTT

Preface: I've just started playing around with Home Assistant on a Raspberry Pi and exploring the world of MQTT to control devices on the network. Learning curve is a bit steep but worth the effort as MQTT is very fast. The hardware and software tools I'm using are as follows: 2 x Sonoff relay units 2 x NodeMCU Boards ESPEasy firmware (must be version 121 or above as that contains the MQTT 'retain' flag option. Home Assistant software on Raspberry Pi2 MQTT Test Software: PC: MQTT.fx Android: MQTT Dashboard

My Notepad++ tricks when editing YAML files in Home Assistant

To comment out a whole section in one go: Highlight the text you want to comment out and use CTRL + Q. If you do this at the start of a line, it will only comment that line. CTRL + Q is toggle mode (comment on/off). CTRL + K will allow you to add multiple comments one after the other.

Installing ha-bridge on your Raspberry Pi

EDIT: Updated 14th June 2017 to reflect version 4.5.5. Default port is now 80 to keep Google Home happy and service now supports MQTT! Advice on backups also added 7th Feb. Version 4x also supports adding a Home Assistant instance which is great! Want to control your Vera, Harmony hub or Home Assistant entities with your Amazon echo or Google Home? ha-bridge is the best way to achieve that and installation is actually quite easy and takes less than 5 minutes. Here are the steps.
