Why not accept its a BETA firmware, ant it could have bugs 😉 ---

I do accept, but sounds not logic to introduce bugs you know already ---

I really dislike responses like this… It is a 2 sec job to disable the button and save everyone else mins to hours wondering if they have done something wrong and coming here posting questions ---

And how will ‘beta’ or ‘new’ functions be tested then?? For me the button worked ok 😉 But not for everybody apparently… As i stated before, its a BETA firmware. And bugs are to be expected. If you dislike that, don’t install beta software 😉 ---

I dislike such responses, too! This kind of intelligent comments makes me feel very comfortable in a community. I believe, every one knows what beta means, enabling it. Giving a beta with known issues to the voluntary testers must produce such questions. It is not to much, if beta tester ask for a „known issues list“ so they know what to look for and where to keep the Fokus. Telling voluntaries they are „stupid if installing a beta“ is for sure not the best way to create a great piece of software for public use. Me in person feels not really welcome to test and support Athom if I have to read such answers! Please try to take your testers more serious, they are the ones saving this product from bad publications. Regards ---

OT… but might be of interest for other updaters… Homey updated to v1.5.13-rc.9 and a Zigbee Xiaomi Aqara doorsensor - that was offline for ages - came online! I made a flow to report contact/alarm and it passed this test. I checked the Zigbee mesh (in developers mode) but still all nodes are 1:1 with Homey; no mesh. But, it worked so Athom must have given Zigmee range a boost. An hour later contact with the doorsensor was lost again… bummer. ---

Rc10 has been made available, witch solves this problem. (at least on my homey) ---

Well, I am not a beta user, I am running homey 1.5.12 which is out of beta. I also used the remove node button, and Z-wave is dead after trying. ---

UPDATE I had 3 orphan nodes, of which one was able to be removed 1 with the new ‘remove’ function. The other 2 nodes failed / were not found. After a soft reboot, the second node could be removed. After another soft reboot, the third was removed. Nice! Well done Athom! ---

Removing is indeed not going straigh away. I needed several attemps to remove two orphan nodes. But in the end after about 5 attemps they are gone. I’m real happy about that
