I just bought a used Homey Pro pre-2019. The seller of course states that it worked when it was shipped in its original packaging, and I believe that.

You can try this, without waiting for Homey to blink or talk: Make sure you’re logged in to the Homey app Plug Homey in Turn it upside-down after ~ 1 minute After a minute, in the app, select “add new Homey” and follow instructions I hope it didn’t die during shipment.
