[APP][Pro] Philips Hue Zigbee (Without the bridge)

They should work as generic Zigbee Lights because this was already with Homey firmware v7.1 implemented (Source). So in general no special app is needed.

If you check the first post of this topic for the ID’s, you will recognize that these (I guess) new ID’s not supported by the app yet. But in the first post it’s also described what has to be done if you want to request a new device to be added to the app. So please follow this instruction.

Hi
I have Hue Outdoor Occupancy Sensor (SML004) connected to my Homey Pro (2016-2019). The Outdoor Occupancy Sensor is not connected via hue bridge. It works as I want with flows and detects movement as expected.

When I try to adjust settings, such as “min report interval for lux” of the Outdoor Occupancy Sensor in the Homey Pro i get the error message “invalid_setting_type”.

Can I do anything to fix this? Should I add the sensor to the hue bridge first and after that to the Homey Pro?

It’s error in the code, you can fix it and do CLI install. Code is available on GitHUB.
Or you can raise new issue for it… Issues · JohanBendz/com.philips.hue.zigbee · GitHub

Hi,

The contact sensor seems defective.
I can add it, but it doesn’t recognize if it make contact or not and can’t find any battery info either.

Is this a known issue, or not?

Have you paired in close distance ? If not, try to re-add it.

I’m experiencing the same issue.
The sensor was paired approximately 2m from working Zigbee devices that function as a router, one of which is a hue GU10 spot connected through the Hue without bridge app,

It seems the Hue contact sensor does not work with Homey. I can install it using the Philips Hue without bridge app , but it does not show any data.

Any idea about the root cause ?

Have you try to restart the app?

Can you repeat the pairing / repair in close distance of Homey, if that will improve anything ?
Even if close distance of Zigbee router, it’s not automatically 100% ensured it’s used by the device, even the probability shall be significant. Also which contact sensor do you mean - please go to Homey Developer Tools and copy Manufacturer and ModelID

Thanks for your response.

This is for the Hue Contact Sensor:

  • Manufacturer: Signify Netherlands B.V.
  • ModelID: SOC001

Tried both a repair as well as a remove + add new device in close proximity of the HP23 (< 1m). Unfortunately no change.

Maybe I recommend to update this issue, eventually also do the sensor interview and attach it. Then it’s with Johan to fix it.

Thank you. Done.

Restarting the app or restarting homey does not help at all

i had a philips hue bridge with a single wall switch and two hue lamps and the switch controlled one or the other lamp separately using the dual channel of the switch. Now i have migrated everything to the Homey pro (without the philips bridge) but i can’t find how to make the dual channel of the hue switch work! does anyone know how?

Hi @Jaime_Fontes, this is a bug that will be fixed with next update.

Thank you very much for this information

I bought some new Philips Hue White GU10 light bulbs, with a new ID that is unkown by your app. I made a github item
This is the product: GU10 White and already known in your app as GU10 PF (White) (LWG001), but mine ID is LWG005

OK, thanks for info and for the Github issue.
I’ll have a look at adding it to the next update.

Hi @johan_bendz, this is great to hear! Do you have an eta on the next update?

Hi,
i’m new to homey and have a strange issue regarding the Hue Wall Switch:
After adding the device using this app, everything worked perfectly. After one or two days, every press of the switch is suddenly sent 3 times to homey. So I press the rocker button once and the switch sends 3 presses.
First I thought there is a problem with the button, but it also happens when i connect the two wires of the switch manually, without the button attached.
I already tried re-adding the switch numerous times, sometimes it helps again for a few days, sometimes the triple press is right after re-adding the device.
Any ideas what could cause this?
