Out of the blue my Homey goes offline. It was working fine before. I have no items added recently. The ring is flashing red. I have no clou, its been working errorfree as long as I have my homey. . I Think this problem has started after the update to version 7.1.0. Its now on and off intermittently.
What could be the reason and more important, how do I fix it?
Thxs in advance
" Red - Homey could not correctly start. Try the Recovery procedure"
If your Homey is still using its original power supply, I’d suggest replacing it with something better (5V, at least 2.1A).
HI Robert,
Why would I do this? Does the adapter becomes bad or something? I will follow your advise and give it a try. Any known good working alternative?
Yes, the adapter goes bad, it’s a known issue. Take any good brand USB charger that can deliver enough power (2.1A or more), not a cheap Chinese device (like the one that comes with Homey).
I just added an old 5v 2A adapter, Its been on line since. Will purchase a new one. Is the amperage very important?
Make a ticket at Athom and they will send u a new one.
This was the solution, thank you very much!
During this proces my Xiaomi Light Sensor has stooped working, the other devices are all working properly.
