Hi Peter, I could still use some help. I tried adding the device as a generic zigbee device, it directly shows up as the switch and also leaves the network after a few seconds. I can’t do the interview when the device goes missing ☹  
I want to help getting these (maybe Tuya components that use new internal parts?) to work on Homey.

What WiFi channel is your router using? Zigbee and WiFi are both 2.4ghz. Can be that your router overshouts your Homey Zigbee network if they are on the same 2.4ghz channel…

Devices leaving the network, points to a generic zigbee issue, I think, which should be addressed first.  
Of course it could be a faulty unit as well, hard to tell from my couch 😉

Nevertheless, I can recommend this guide, to see if you can improve your zigbee network:

Don’t think that’s an issue. Homey zigbee is channel 15 and my 2.5 wifi is on chanel 5

That’s pretty bad though, way too close to eachother:

Just reset my zigbee network. Added all my smart switches again. From closest to homey to furthest. Now my zigbee channel is 20. Still the same problem… ☹  
Also, tuya’s hub does not have this problem at all. Maybe the problem is with tuya’s zigbee integration with homey? Idk anymore

You’re right. My switches are all non powered devices. Non-powered switches are no router-devices.

I have now found out that many Tuya devices now dont work with Homey Pro 2023 anymore.

I have got a Tuya Zigbee :MHCOZY 4-Channel Dry Contact Smart Wireless Zigbee Switch Relay Module, Is it possible to get in Homey Pro ?, if so how ?  
I also have a few Tuya temp and humidity sensor I want to add.

If u already tried the test version with no luck and the product is listed as supported, u can try to add manually

> It’s actually easier than that. If you want to contribute to the app i’m not the best person to ask, but you can download the app, add the code and use your version of the app instead. Download the app at Github and follow this tutorial: Go to drivers/device name/driver.compose.json and add the info of your device at “manufacturerName” and “productId”. This will only work if the device has been added to the app, just not your device code. You can get those IDs by adding your device ad gene…

I had a bug yesterday with devices connected to tuyaZigbee.(test version). I created a topic in devices

To solve this situation I placed a switch previously configured in Smartlife to return it to off. so when there is a power outage the lamps remain off when they are re-energized. Flow, when activating a switch, whether on or off, checks whether this switch is off and if it is on. Yesterday there was a power outage. The Homey Pro was on the UPS, but the lights didn’t turn on.

Also bit the bullet here and tried to install my own version.

So, I did the following:  
Start Node.js command prompt

homey login

Run the following:  
git clone [GitHub - JohanBendz/com.tuya.zigbee](https://github.com/JohanBendz/com.tuya.zigbee)  
“C:\Users\RudiH\com.tuya.zigbee” is created

I had already made issue [Device Request - 2 Gang Switch Module - Tuya / TS0001 · Issue #1103 · JohanBendz/com.tuya.zigbee](https://github.com/JohanBendz/com.tuya.zigbee/issues/1103)

Went to: “C:\Users\RudiH\com.tuya.zigbee\drivers\switch\_2\_gang\_metering”  
Opened “driver.compose.json”

I noticed:  
“zigbee”: {  
“manufacturerName”: [  
“\_TZ3000\_zmy4lslw”,  
“\_TZ3000\_cayepv1a”  
],  
“productId”: [  
“TS0002”,  
“TS011F”  
],

Changed this to (thus adding my new device):  
“zigbee”: {  
“manufacturerName”: [  
“\_TZ3000\_zmy4lslw”,  
“\_TZ3000\_cayepv1a”,  
“\_TZ3000\_kqvb5akv”  
],  
“productId”: [  
“TS0002”,  
“TS011F”,  
“TS0001”  
],

Then:  
cd com.tuya.zigbee  
npm install  
homey app install

Looked ok, but:

And after that I first tried to repair the device. After that it was still running as generic Zigbee device  
Then I tried adding it again, but as Tuya Zigbee app device. I received the error that the device was already available.  
Then I deleted it and tried to add it again, but it was still being added as generic Zigbee device.

**So, what is happening here?**

Let’s see if this works better. I thought: perhaps this IS a one gang switch rather than a 2 gang switch. So I updated that driver.comp.json and did a new install:

</div>

Ok, now the app showed as “Development”  
Still, the device was added as generic Zigbee device  
And after trying to install the device the app didn’t show as “Development” anymore…ok, let’s switch off automatic updates 😉

Ok… while I was reinstalling the device it had updated to the non development version again ☹  
So, again, reinstall the development version and then disable auto update immediately…wait…whut… that’s not available.

Ok, I’ll retry

Ok… Now it doesn’t get past this screen (after selecting the Tuya Zigbee device I want to add)

 ![Screenshot_20250406_143328_Homey](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/f/e/fe98c8dcdf3ac98bc9137e0c7474eb52bcbdcc28.jpeg)

So, the turning circle. The next screen should be the standard screen you get when adding Zigbee devices.

And after cancelling out I tried adding a generic Zigbee device, but that doesn’t get past this screen as well. And the app is back to the non development version  
So, installed the development app one more time and restarted Homey after that.

Edit: For the time being, I give up. There must be something I am doing wrong here. And most likely for the experts this is a no brainer.

I have already been waiting for months. After it has been added based on your request, did you check how things were added by the developer?

I am pretty sure, I am doing something wrong here 🙂

has there been an update, or did anyone make a more recent pull request? I dont think there has been an update to the app for a long time, leaving all these updates hanging, or am I missing somehing… Unfortunately no clue how to do that,
