Today I received my Aqara wireless remote switch H1 double rocker but it is unsupported at the moment.  
It will only be added as a unknown device.

Can this new switch please be added so it will be useable?

Thanks.

Quick question - if I buy the Aqara gateway is there any way to connect zigbee devices to _that_ and have them recognised within Homey? I don’t see it mentioned in the supported devices but sure it used to be…

Having issues with my zigbee on Homey so looking for alternatives to resetting my zigbee associations

Yes, the gateway shows it’s paired devices to Homey. That’s what I have working myself.

Not all Xiaomi gateway work! Depends on version and firmware.

Here you see xiaomi devices paired to the xiaomi gateway and controlleable via Homey.

Ah thanks - looks like it’s a different app which is why I was missing it!  
Any ideas which gateway is safest to buy?

If you mean MiJia Honeywell Smoke Detector White, it is supported. I hope you are on latest 1.2.5 version and Homey v7, right ? Just press the button 3 times, shortly after, if I recall well.

Read that. I used it to find the correct gateway.

Second this.  
Was trying to add it before I noticed there was no support for it yet. ☹

Thanks in advance!

Oh, great! Thank you. As we both have the H1, Ted must’ve gotten them or get them very soon. Good to know that an updat is on it’s way!

I believe so too, my IKEA-bulbs are not working great. Almost every time there are bulb missing to be turned on or off.

I would really encourage Athom to work on that now when the meshing is enhanced.

Last time I’ve reset the whole zigbee network to include New buttons. Now i’m trying to repair my flows and the aqara wireless switch double gives me some errors. When trying to save it tells me: ‘could not find that flowcard action’. Is this related to the app or can I try something to fix this?

Edit: fixed. Made a mistake myself with another flowcard which was unavailable due the reset

If I understand correctly, you should replace that flow card by selecting the “newly” added switch again and the available action or command you’d like to use.

I had the same issue, or at least: I couldn’t add the new Ikea devices.

Athom asked me to reset the Zigbee network and then re-add the devices, starting with the Ikea (router) devices. That fixed the issue.

Homey 7.0.1, did a Zigbee reset. Was able to add all Zigbee devices (also Aqara) except for two Aqara Temperature/ Humidity sensors

 ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/9/b/9b01fbd3ff6e5d71d50871c09305f4725a3c4c8b.jpeg)

Oddly, one of these did pair after several attempts, but I cannot get the others to pair. Just for reference: I tried a PTP, and the number of Zigbee devices does not exceed 20. And of course I minimized the distance between Homey and the sensor when pairing. Anyone a suggestion how to fix this? Many thanks!

Never mind that. I think it was the battery levels of the sensors. I will leave my post for future reference for others experiencing similar issues. Lesson learned: do not forget to replace the batteries…

Hello @TedTolboom are you aware of the ZigBee devices that stop reporting? ATHOM is redirecting me back to the app developer. There are more and more people with the same issue. I understand if this is hard to find a solution but please let us know what you thought are.
