How do you guys reset the devices? Using the bridge or a remote? If you did it using the bridge, can you try doing it with a remote instead? (after adding the remote to Homey) ---

I’ve tried both, as it didn’t always include properly in 1 go 😬 and resetting with the remote is faster then. Don’t have any other remotes then the hue dimmers, so can’t test that. But it results in the same behaviour. ---

I deleted the lamps in the original Philips Hue app and then resettet them with a dimmer switch. But the DS was still connected to the Hue-Bride. ---

Today I paired 2 LightStripes plus (NodeID 12 & 13) with a dimmer switch which is paired with Homey (NodeID 11) and additional a second dimmer switch (NodeID 14). All the new added devices were connected to the Hue Bridge before. Whatever the reason is the dimmer switches (NodeID 11 & 14) show a “normal” route now. ![Bildschirmfoto 2020-08-27 um 09.09.30](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/9/7/97ce5c57ad6926be2e9efb4c8f0623531811ac88.png) ---

Dimmers are not working with the app. Is it possible to use the original Hue app and the Philips Hue Zigbee app both? ---

They work fine for me. These ones: ![Bildschirmfoto 2020-08-30 um 12.41.51](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/f/7/f785bd12b3fa336f447b2f9be7aefec5d111be15.jpeg) If you have paired the dimmer switches via the Hue bridge and want to trigger flows with them, you will notice a delay. I don’t recommend that. ---

Now after a week after inclusion, I slowly get all my routings visible (woohoo!), only 1 more bulb that doesn’t have a route to show out of 31 bulbs and 2 remotes. so I guess it takes some time for the mesh to settle properly. ---

Hi again @Wout-1976. Hmm, I have made no change in the code for that device in the latest app update so I don’t really know what could cause your problem. I would however be happy if you sent me a crash report from the app directly after having tried to add it again. ---

@Wout-1976, click on the three dots (…), apps, scroll down to Philips Hue Zigbee and click on it, click the settings icon in upper right corner, press the crash report option, add your name to the description of the crash report. 🙂 ---

I’m trying to add some new bulbs, but I get all kind of errors. These are the bulbs I try to connect: ![20200905_140735](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/4/0/40269158b573842571d17d6bdc25ffcb0b0d3ecf.jpeg) ![20200905_140804](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/a/6/a6c7fa998bdd4b70ae7135309951d454ba14bfba.jpeg) I’m on the stable homey firmware 4.2(?). Never had any issues with Hue zigbee in the past. Have like 30 zigbee devices amongst which around 20 bulbs (so powered routers). Are these bulbs not supported (yet)? Or any other issue? Did I reach the zigbee network device limit? ---

I get the notification when I try to add a device using Homey → Zigbee: Zigbee is bezig op het moment, probeer later opnieuw I restarted homey (not PTP) 30mins ago in the hope to resolve my pairing issue. Can it be Homey is still busy with the restart?
