Hello,  
Since the last few days, the LED ring of my homey turned red for a few minutes every half an hour or so. At these times Homey was rebooting and not accessible via the app… very strange because I had changed (almost) nothing after to upgrade to V2.0.  
This morning Homey was in de initial state, introducing himself and asking to go to [setup.athome.com](http://setup.athome.com). I desciced to turn off the power for a while. This evening I put Homey back on power and the LED ring was showing a lot of different colors, making a very strange noise and was unaccessible at all and not going to the recovery mode when put Homey upside down.

After that I changed the Original Athom AC-adapter for another one and put the power on. Then Homey went to the initial state, introducing himself and asking to go to [setup.athome.com](http://setup.athome.com). I followed the instructions, connected to the Wifi, everything ok. But guess what…… **All devices, flows and apps where lost** …😖

Has anybody experience what this disaster? Is there a possibility to get all my data and settings back?

Many thanks in advance

That’s a hard crash 😱 Maybe some of the filestructure can be recovered by Athom? I would send a mail to [support@athom.com](mailto:support@athom.com)

Hi, I had the same and opened A ticket by Atom. They advised me to change the adapter and that worked.

Ask in the ticket for Bram he knows about this problem and they send you A New adapter.

My flows lost every crash - but I was lucky and didnt loose devices. As others have said changing the power adapter fixed my issue.

Yeah apparently! Confirmed by Athom, they promised to send me a new adapter! Hopefully a more reliable one…
