Seems latest update is a step back. What was working now is not or it is at least very slow. I have noticed that once you get a switch to turn then it will start working fast for a while. Almost seems like there is an initialization issue. Rebooting helps though again you need to give the hub about 5 minutes to stabilize. . ---

After my Homey Pro was updated to 1.0.0.5 I’ve lost contact with about 10 of my 20 z-wave devices, they worked fine before the update. The devices that doesn’t work are all Telldus plug-in switches. I have restarted the Telldus z-wave app, the Homey and even pulled the power to the Homey for a couple of minutes without success. In the Developer tools the devices doesn’t respond to any tests or heal that I try to do. Any suggestions other than waiting in the dark house for the next version? ---

You could revert to the local backup you took before the most recent update having followed the advice earlier in this thread? ---

Maybe turn off updates until a fix is released? The change log does explicitly state that this update would not fix the issue. ---

Sure … but they had all kind off “improvements” that i hoped would make stuf more stable Now my Aeotec switches spontaneously turn off and on every so many hours … it not even logged in the devices themselves when i check in the Homey app. and all worked before they started updating i think. Had no issues the first couple of weeks Why don’t they just revert back ! I wonder if i can go back to the 2019 … will the backup on the 2023 work ? I had no advanced flows on that ( now i have a couple ) … how will that be handled ? What a mess 😔 ---

I was all but ready to replace the Pro 2023 with my good old Pro 2019 and then yesterday 10.0.6-rc.3 came out. And it sort of works, mostly. Sometimes it’s slow or missing a beat but it catches up. This will give the 2023 another week respite. ---

It’s just a pitty Athom seems to have lost 8 weeks in this issue. As when I initially reported it, it took 4 weeks to report back that this was a beta etc etc. Only 4 weeks after that, they started to acknowledge the issue. So 2023 is still stored, I am confident it will be solved, just a pitty we lost so much time in discussing the beta part, instead of taking it seriously from the beginning. But before the issue, the 2023 worked like a charm, so I can’t wait until the fix is there. ---

Is anyone on here running this version and what is your experience. I hate to pull the trigger and have to do a factory reset if it makes things worse or breaks other things that are working., May just stick with resetting the Homey every few hours… ---

As mentioned several times on this thread and even confirmed on this thread by Athom (via Emile) there is no need to do a factory reset in order to try new firmware. Simply take a local backup of Homey first then upgrade the firmware. If it doesn’t work, it takes literally 10 minutes to restore the backup and return your Homey, including the z wave chip, back to precisely how it was before the firmware update and you will have lost nothing. ---

As stated in the release notes the latest firmware do not solve the issues, so upgrading to try is useless. I can say that the situation is still hopeless and are really at the point to return the new homey how much I like Athom… A none working home is not longer acceptable, especially now the days are becoming shorter and I am not able to close my shutters… ---

Hi Ingmar, sorry for the late respone… Yes, I also noticed the CPU peaks every two hours or so. I reported this to Athom and posted this in the thread that To\_Lou already gave. During these peaks Homey is even more unresponsive. ---

Well, it also states that it could/should improve things although it won’t completely solve the issue. I agree with you that this really takes too long, and the information provided is way too less. We now know that Silicon Labs have identified a problem on their end. Is it a small issue, big issue? Hardware, software? What is the timeframe they expect for a resolution? Days, weeks, months? There should really be more information then “it has our highest priority, thank you for your patience”. ---

For me versions 10.0.6 and 10.0.7-rc.1 haven’t resolved the issues, and have added more. I get now a mixture of: “Could not send command. Too much Z-Wave traffic. (TRANSMIT\_COMPLETE\_FAIL)” and “Z-Wave device did not respond. (TRANSMIT\_COMPLETE\_NO\_ACK)” [Previous page](https://community.homey.app/t/homey-pro-2023-zwave-too-much-traffic-error/84036.md?page=23) [Next page](https://community.homey.app/t/homey-pro-2023-zwave-too-much-traffic-error/84036.md?page=25)
