Replaced mine with the CM4108032.

Was a bit of a hassle, the USB back-up resulted in a boot loop. Reset to factory and then used the cloudback up. Afterwards did the partition resize with gparted on a raspberry pi emulation on a macbook silicon.

Thanks for all the previous info and tutorials!

Next project is to replace the heatsink.

</div>

Outcome is that you can choose only right CM4 with Wifi and BLE :

**CM4108032** / **CM4104032** - re-partition required to have use of remaining eMMC space, Cloud restore only (USB restore might result in damaged/unreadable partitions)  
**CM4108016** / **CM4104016** - re-partition required to have use of remaining eMMC space, Cloud restore only (USB restore might result in damaged/unreadable partitions)  
**CM4108008** / **CM4104008** - USB and Cloud restore should both work

I tested USB restore between **CM4104032** and **CM4108032** with new partitions, and it doesn’t work, results in bootloop because the USER partition is damaged.

**Note :**

- no support from Athom, don’t open support tickets for modded variants
- [you need still some soldering equipment and some of the skills](https://community.homey.app/t/modding-various-homey-pro-early-2023-modification-suggestions/79487/36)
- when you are doing this mod, [FAN](https://community.homey.app/t/modding-various-homey-pro-early-2023-modification-suggestions/79487/141) / [Heatsink upgrade](https://community.homey.app/t/modding-various-homey-pro-early-2023-modification-suggestions/79487/122) is suggested - many of us already described multiple paths, I’m happy with my active cooling
- I’m now running stable with 8GB RAM and having/running 75 Apps / 360 devices - just to give a perspective

Thank you all for the information in this post.  
I managed to replace the CM4 board with the 8/32GB version.  
No jailbreak yet, no need for more memory space in that area. For me the expantion of the work memory from 2 to 8 GB is enough.

I am about to upgrade/replace my CM4 module for more memory. Will that also change the wifi address. And if so what do I need to do to connect to the homey again ?

Thanks for the help.

No, not in my case when I replaced the module.  
Just make sure that you have a proper backup!

</div>

Make an Homey online/cloud Backup and also an local usb backup(with the [homey usb tool](https://support.homey.app/hc/en-us/articles/7263435817116-Connect-Homey-Pro-to-a-PC-or-Mac-with-USB) an a chrome webbrowser ) before Upgrade and after Upgrade also both. I would also make sure you gave setup an local user for local connect and have a simple possibility to get to know the new local wifi adress. I would recommend an special 5 ghz wifi Connection to a smarthome subnet

Do you also have the Homey USB LAN Adapter?

I have both Connected. The USB LAN Adapter to my main local ip subnet and the wifi (acces setitinfs) to a 5 Ghz Wifi that is Connected to another local ip subnet for my smarthome devices.

</div>

As the CM4108032 modules are hard to get these days (and what the hack do we need 32gb storage for)  
I purchased a CM4108016 from Farnell (as they still have stock) with 8gb memory and 16gb storage and did the upgrade. i made the backup with the [https://usb.homey.app/](https://usb.homey.app/) and restored it sucessfully.
