Yes this is aqara remote switch and i have aqara app installed, i have few switches and sensor already working for years
Can i move the post ?to the dedicated post or i need to drlete and re ask?
I didn’t double post, the other post refrence to general problem i have with homey regarding to evry device i added.
I was just confused that in this post you’re saying “I can add the aqara switch” and in your other post you’re saying “I can’t add new devices”, which seems to be contradictive.
It’s added as a generic Zigbee device, and Homey only has very limited generic Zigbee support, so it’s probably related to that. You have to wait for an app to support the device.
Also, if you can add devices to Homey again, please close the post where you say you can’t.
For example: it took me 12 hours and few restart to add this switch, so even if im able to add device, unfortunately the problem hasn’t really been solved
So regarding to my switch, basically u say im just order wrong model?
And its not like the working old model i already have?
Can u point me to the wireless switch of aqara who has driver?
That sounds like an issue with your Homey, you should probably contact Athom.
Yes.
Apparently not. If Homey says it’s added as a generic Zigbee device, it couldn’t find a driver for it.
However, given your general issues with adding devices, it may have been added “half”, I don’t know.
All I can suggest is to look at the first post of the Aqara app thread, there’s where all supported devices are posted (however, they need to be exactly the same, so the same model/manufacturer ID, not just look the same).
I wanted to say it look like it added “half of the driver” or something but i thought i be sound crazy…u have any idea on how to work this from this direction instead of buy another 3 switches?
Off curse if i buy i will go through the post this time
More options:
restart Homey in recovery mode and choose “full software download” from the menu when presented;
Here’s a howto.
This has solved the weirdest zigbee issues, but no guarantees here.
Note: it only installs the firmware from scratch, it shouldn’t touch anything of your work.
But, as always, do keep a recent backup at hand
In case that doesn’t help, you can reset Homey zigbee as a last resort.
This will remove all paired zigbee devices, and you’ll have add your zigbee devices and fix the flows involved.
Fixing those flows can be a nightmare, luckily we can use this very neat script bij Martijn Poppen.
Unfortunately I can’t tell you if Homey is dying, BUT the original power brick is known to degrade over time, causing zigbee malfunctions for instance; make sure to replace it by a decent one from a well known brand, 5VDC - 2A minimum. I’d replace the USB cable as well.
