Did you already cut the power from Homey for at least 10 minutes?

If that didn’t help out:  
Please report in the Aqara app topic to alert the developers, as well as [https://homey.app/support](https://homey.app/support).

You’ll find links to these app topics on the app page at the app store.

You can revert from the RC firmware to the stable firmware to “solve” it.

Have you reported this issue to Athom? If not, I suggest you do so via [Support | Homey](https://homey.app/support/).

Athom does not monitor this forum actively. The best chance for getting issues resolved is by reaching out to them via their support channel.

Like I suggested, the quickest fix is to revert to stable firmware. But probably you didn’t understand a word I wrote, or I’m in your ignore list 🤪

Despite my advice to inform support: As I realized later on,  
Athom (officially) doesn’t give any support to RC / beta firmware; it’s also not supposed to run on your daily driver Homey…

Ok, thanks. I reported the problem to Athom homey support and we are in the process of looking into it.

Yes, all the Aqara sensors. The option “try to repair” is not available.

I have the latest Rc firmware and several aqara sensors and switches but no problems, or is it already solved?

It has already been suggested (more than once) to revert back to the stable firmware.
