[APP][Pro] Tuya Zigbee App

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 :frowning:
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 :wink:

Nevertheless, I can recommend this guide, to see if you can improve your zigbee network:
https://community.homey.app/t/advanced-zigbee-troubleshooting-on-homey/115930

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… :frowning:
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.

What channel is ur wifi and zigbee channel that is working for you?

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

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

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
“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

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:

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 :wink:

Ok… while I was reinstalling the device it had updated to the non development version again :frowning:
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)

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.

Hi, Were you able to get this lightbulk work? I’m looking in to a setup with them…

Sometimes that’s not enough. Happened to me b4, only option was to put a request on github. A few months later it was added to the app

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 :slight_smile:

First picture is wrong, (missing file, try again) second is correct. 5 green checks.

That was only the first time. After that it gave 5 green checks time and again

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,
