For more than 1 week now I have been receiving the message “Device Unavailable” (sometimes several times a day) on many of my devices. Then the flows in which the devices are mentioned will not work either.  
I can only get it restored after removing the power from the Homey (2019) and connecting it again. Then everything goes well again for a few hours before the problem occurs again.  
How is this resolved?|

> Hi Pat, The first things you can do Change the power brick for a decent one, like a Samsung charger or Ipad charger. Replace the USB cable as well. (The original power brick could degrade over time, it outputs lower voltages, causing weird issues) If step 1.) doesn’t make a difference, install the “full software download”. This installs Homey firmware from scratch and solved weird zigbee issues. Start Homey in Recovery Mode to proceed. Here’s an excellent how-to:

If it is about wifi devices becoming unavailable, you’d check your wifi gear.
