No, I know for a fact what the firmware change entails: some sensors (the “T1 sensors”) will not pair with third party controllers (like Homey), only Aqara’s own hub. The workaround (also implemented by other Zigbee implementations, like ZHA for Home Assistant and zigbee2mqtt) is to temporarily, during pairing, make the device think it’s talking to an Aqara hub. > [@](#): > > I find it more likely they fixed a few things related to Aqara-devices and wrote a summary in the change-log than that the new release has nothing to do with the change in behaviour. Athom didn’t even test the abovementioned workaround, they initially brushed off issue reports (for new issues that are caused by it) from users as “go talk to the app developer, it’s not related to our workaround” but now [they bought some Aqara devices themselves and can reproduce the issue](https://community.homey.app/t/app-aqara-xiaomi-smart-home-a-different-kind-of-smart-home-solution-zigbee-app/156/5147). That doesn’t sound like they extensively test with a lot of different devices (and doesn’t fit with their “Every User Is A Tester™” mentality). But I guess time will tell if your problems are solved 😃 --- _[View the full topic](https://community.homey.app/t/aqara-door-window-sensors-stop-responding-after-1-2-hours-with-hp2023/85632)._
