Sorry for the late reply.
Try bending the fins. or use a very small wrench, or even very grippy precision tweezers.
They are a bit of a pain but it’s really the only hard part.

And ? How is your experience? Better /Faster /More responsive??
Did you also expand the Partition to 32GB ?
Did you put back the hood/top if the Homey Pro?
Or is it now a cabriolet “special edition” Homey Pro 23 like mine?
Homey now uses 2.2 Gb out of 8.2. So my memory usage was to the limit.
Every 24 hours my homey crashed and restarted automatically. It needs a week to say if it is now more stable or not. Devices seem more responsive.
I did not expand the partition (yet). I do not need extra storage.
The cpu temp is below 54 degrees, same as before the modding. No need to let the box open.
Homey is definitely much faster. My (large) homescreen opens in stead of after a few seconds now within a second.

Hi,
I am planning to upgrade the CM4 of Homey Pro 2023 to the 8/32GB version.
Question: how thick should the new thermal pads be when using the same cooling body from the original 2023?
I used 1,5 mm for the CPU and 2,5 mm for the PSU.
My Homey (with 8/32GB) is still at about the same temperature as with the old CM4; about 57º C with the original heatsink.
Hasn’t been above 58º C since I replaced the CM4.

I used 1mm thermal pad for cpu and reused the 3mm pad for one chip and 1,5 mm for another chip. Temp always below 55 degrees.

My Amazon.nl package/order (see link above) came with 5 or 6 new roze thermal pads and heatsink included.
Ik used/installed all of them and not only these two like the original
So every surface of these 4 other “chips” would also have a thermal pad to touch the original heatsink.

How did you get this information/specs(chart)/screenshot ??
I like it. Would love to have it too, please.
Chart: created with Homey dashboard, installed the app sysinternals and used insights in the dashboard
Table: - app sysinternals to get the device characteristics - dashboard with app enhanced device widget. Created a table with html. (Enhanced device widget supports html)

Hi everyone. I tried to upgrade my Pro to 8GB last weekend. It all went as expected until the newly upgraded Homey started. I could access the Homey from App, Delveloper and Web, but I discovered that there was no sign of IP addresses for Ethernet Adapter or for Wifi on the Homey Pro. Also, I had no Z-wave. Tried resetting the Homey Pro, reinstalling firmware and restoring backup serveral times, but still no network or Z-wave. I then switched back to the old Compute module and everything was back in place. Performed a new local backup plus a cloud backup and repeated the process for switching Compute module. Still the same problem.
With the new Compute module, I can get the yellow light and connect to computer or Mac, but I cannot use the 8-second or 30-second reset functions. When I have the blue light, I cannot find a new device - even when the Homey can be seen from my local network.
My Homey Pro: Utilizing 1,85GB RAM
homeyVersion “12.10.1”
48 Z-wave devices
51 Zigbee devices
Any ideas of what to check next?
Hm, very strange, which CM4 have you used ? (CMxxxxx)
How did you restore the data in the first place ?
How you were accessing Homey, if you are saying there was no sign of IP for Wifi nor Ethernet ?
What was shown in the Sys info part , particurarly
Used this module: CM4008032
And no info was available om Sysinfo for Zwave. I manually selected Europe, but it was still blank
There was no sign of IP in Homey info, but I could access Homey from computer and App. Both Wifi and Ethernet was enabled and available from my LAN.
