Cannot Disable Auto Lock on U-Bolt-Pro-Wifi

ULTRALOQ Smart Lock
1

I’ve submitted a ticket for this issue, but am posting here for the community.

I have multiple U-Bolt-Pro-Wifi locks installed with door sensors.
All on the latest firmware (01.38.0023), using the latest version of the app (v3.1.5).

Auto Lock is set to “off” on all three locks.

Only one lock has Auto Unlock set “on”.

Things were working fine for until about a week ago when the Auto Unlock lock started re-locking.

I go look at the Auto Lock setting and it’s set to off, BUT the status says “Your ULTRALOQ will lock immediately after the door is closed.”
utec_set_bugged_immediate

I turn Auto Lock on to get into the settings and change from “Immediate” to “Timer”, but still set to off. The Warning pops up that “Auto lock is turned off, your ULTRALOQ will not lock automatically when the door is closed.”
utec_set_bugged_turned_off

But on the next screen the status message changes: “Your ULTRALOQ will lock automatically when the time is up after the door is”.
utec_set_bugged_final

I look at a second lock that had been behaving correctly (Auto Lock “off” and not auto locking)… when I initially open that page in the app the status message is correct “Your ULTRALOQ will not lock automatically.”

However, once the loading is finished and the app has communicated with the lock the status message is not matching the on/off state.

@Eric18 We are so sorry for this inconvenience caused for you. May I know your ticket number? So that we can reply you in detail.
It seems that the lock might have a jamming issue.
By the way, have you paired and set up the Door Sensor? Please provide a screenshot the show the setting details for the Door Sensor.
Thank you!

@Stephane1 For Auto Lock, it runs automatically by the device itself, so it is shown as -. Would you please click here to submit a ticket: https://support.u-tec.com/hc/en-us/requests/new?ticket_form_id=4591013691417? So that we can help to troubleshoot.

My ticket was submitted on Apr 26. Below is a screenshot of my browser history showing that. However, no e-mail has been received acknowledging the ticket (I checked SPAM folder). And nothing is showing up in the ticket dashboard other than my previous ticket from 2 months ago.

Yes, the Door Sensor is paired. Here is the requested screenshot of that:

utec_door_sensor

Note that it says Auto lock is turned off. And if you go to the Auto Lock settings, before the App polls the lock it also says Auto lock is off.

utec_set3_initial_correct_pre_load

But once the app has finished loading data from the lock, the status message is again wrong:

utec_set3_initial_bugged_post_load

For completeness: I have a second user with their own phone and App (also Android v3.1.5, like mine). But it is showing the same behavior as my App.

I have the U-Bolt-Pro (the non-WiFi version) and use the bridge and if I change the auto-lock to “on” or “off” the spinner appears and often hangs. You can eventually get it to work by repeating it several times, but it’s a pain if you have someone working at home and you need to disable auto-lock temporarily.

I bought 3 of these locks and wanted to love the product but there are a lot of connectivity and reliability issues and just dumb app bugs. You can jump to screens and start doing things before the screen has the data and is fully rendered - just stuff that makes the app look unprofessional.
