Description of problem
Thank you for your patience and detailed bug reports. Your feedback drives continuous improvement.
Best regards, Dylan Rajasekaram
this version will bbe push in 1 to 2 hour
Thank you for adding the device, but no data is coming through. When I smoke the device, the alarm goes off, but there is no data on the Homey side.
Hi Dylan Good afternoon and many thanks that you put so much effort in this app I really appreciate it.
I did install your new version 2.1.54 and restarted the Homey and starting to install my HOBEIAN multi Temp Hum & Motion sensor ZG-204ZV and finally itâs being recognized and added and showing up as the right one.
But after waiting all the time there is no data coming up see screenshots.
And also the SOS emergency button is being recognized and added but also no data, see next screenshots.
3fd6ed44-89c8-4a93-8c5b-34c119e8ddb1
Best regards and your a hero if you can fix all those and other problems.
Peter.
Okay, I found the problem. Tuyaâs custom capabilities do not respect the standard Zigbee values. I must find and understand each custom value to see the battery level, temperatures, and other KPIs. There are more than 80 new capabilities to discover.
Major Update v2.1.85 - Complete Tuya Cluster Fix + Advanced Features
Hi everyone,
Iâm excited to announce a major update that addresses all the reported issues and adds extensive new features! ![]()
Critical Issues FIXED
For @ugrbnk (Post #266 - Smoke Detector)
FIXED: Smoke detector now reports data correctly
- Root Cause: Device was using Tuya custom cluster (0xEF00) instead of standard Zigbee
- Solution: Implemented universal Tuya cluster handler
- Result: Smoke alarm triggers, battery reports, all data flows
For @Peter_van_Werkhoven (Post #267 - ZG-204ZV Multi-Sensor)
FIXED: All sensor data now displays correctly
- Problem: Temperature, humidity, motion, illuminance showed âN/Aâ
- Root Cause: Device uses Tuya datapoints (DPs) instead of standard attributes
- Solution:
- Fixed CLUSTER reference bug (was causing crash)
- Implemented Tuya datapoint parser for DPs 1,2,4,5,9
- All values now parse correctly (temp Ă·10, humidity direct, etc.)
- Result: All sensors working, data flowing in real-time
For @Peter_van_Werkhoven (Post #267 - SOS Emergency Button)
FIXED: Button now triggers events correctly
- Problem: Device recognized but no button press events
- Solution: Implemented Tuya DP 1 (SOS) and DP 13 (action) handlers
- Result: Button presses detected, flows can be triggered
What Was Done (Technical)
1. Universal Tuya Cluster System 


The Big Fix: Created a universal system that handles Tuyaâs custom cluster (0xEF00/61184)
Problem:
- Tuya devices use proprietary âData Pointsâ (DPs) instead of standard Zigbee clusters
- Each function (battery, temperature, etc.) has a numeric DP ID
- Values are encoded non-standard (Ă·10, Ă·100, enums, hex)
Solution:
- Created tuya-datapoints-database.js with 200+ DPs mapped
- Created tuya-cluster-handler.js for automatic parsing
- Deployed to 90+ drivers
Files:
- utils/tuya-datapoints-database.js
- utils/tuya-cluster-handler.js
- Updated 90+
drivers/*/device.js
2. Auto-Enrichment System
23 drivers automatically enriched with missing capabilities:
alarm_batteryadded to all safety devices (smoke, gas, water leak)
alarm_smoke,alarm_co,alarm_waterfor safety devices
Missing sensors capabilities added
3. Advanced Features Added
New capabilities for professional monitoring:
Battery: voltage monitoring, state (low/medium/high/charging), low battery alarms
Power Monitoring: voltage (V), current (A), power (W), energy meter (kWh)
Temperature: calibration (-9 to +9°C), min/max monitoring, alarms
Smoke Detectors: self-test function, sensitivity settings, lifecycle monitoring

Thank you very much for your efforts. I installed version 2.3, but it didnât work. It was added to the main page, but it appears as the wrong gas sensor device. This device does not run on batteries; it plugs directly into the wall. No data is being updated. I am sharing a screenshot showing how it works on the Z2m; I hope it helps.
Hi Dylan Good evening, you had a busy Day with publishing all those new versionâs ![]()
![]()
I was waiting for Version 2.1.85 but it wasnât coming up and all of a sudden I see that you are already at version 2.9.3 after deleting the Multi sensor and the SOS button I restarted my Honey again and added these 2 again but there is no difference with before because I still donât see any readingâs last readings 56 yearâs Ago and no battery levels and other information, still the same as in the screenshot I sensed today.
Diagnostic code: e09e7a90-c14b-4a25-86de-98639f6de583
Good luck and thanks again, Peter.
I see the problem! The error expected_cluster_id_number appears in the logs. The cluster IDs must be numeric, not strings. I will fix both drivers:
okay fixed both of issues.
Hello Dylan,
You been very busy with app. Reallh appreciate all the work you are putting in to the app. I installed 2.11.1. I deleted the app, reboot homey, installed app and paired the devices. before they wouldnât report anything. Now I see itâs reporting battery status but no motion or illumination.
Iâm using v2.7.1 from the Honey App Store and still getting âunknown zigbee deviceâ for my button and PIR motion sensor with lux sensor.
If thereâs anything I can provide to help troubleshoot this, @dlnraja please let me know.
Manufacturer name please
And scan from Homey développeur platform please
Best regard.
I wanna go to sleep and see it asap ![]()
please update ti v2.11.3 or latest version avalable and tell me whatâs happenig.
Best regard
Ok, so my Homey App Store showed v2.11.3 now so Iâm on that, still no luck though. Theyâre still showing as âunknown zigbee deviceâ.
The motion sensor details:
| zb_product_id | âZG-204ZLâ |
|---|---|
| zb_manufacturer_name | âHOBEIANâ |
The button details:
| zb_product_id | âTS0041â |
|---|---|
| zb_manufacturer_name | â_TZ3000_5bpeda8uâ |
Thanks for your hard work to get these devices working.
Thank you for all your hardwork with this app ![]()
A problem I seem to be having is that every time you release an update, the previous version is uninstalled, but the new version doesnât get installed. Im away for a few days, but can obviously see the versions happening, but any devices I add are then deleted and need to be re-added. I donât recall seeing this behaviour with previous experimental apps.
Is it due to the amount of work you are doing between versions? or Have I got a different issue?
Hi Dylan Good morning ![]()
seen youâve been working till late night
updating the app.
I tried this morning with repairing the devices if they could transmitted data but no luck then deleted the Multi sensor and the SOS button and restarted my Homey and re-added those 2 again but after a while still no readings only keep saying 56 yearâs ago but there is some progress Iâve got Battery readings now Multi sensor 100% and SOS button only 1% even after changing battery for a new one 3,36 V measured with a multimeter.
Diagnostic code: 32546f72-a816-4e43-afce-74cd9a6837e3
I hope it makes sense to you but youâre getting there bit by bit ![]()
Many thanks again for all the work ![]()
Good luck and best regards Peter.
