5 years later, Athom hasn’t fixed the Qubino modules not reporting their status when actionned via the wall switch 😡 🤬

I have only 24 modules… A test with the first module shows that the status still doesn’t work. As soon as I switch a lamp on or off via the normal switch, the status in the Home App does not change. I wonder what has changed in the new version at all. In addition, the delay is approx. 1 second with every 2nd switching on… I’ve had trouble with Zipato. I think now ALL Qubino modules are …

I haven’t read your old topic, but Athom isn’t responsible for the Homey Qubino app:

There is a firmware update for this device but the Homey “official” app doesn’t allow it. I don’t know who other than Athom is responsible

Homey can’t offer OTA updating at all, nothing any app can provide for.  
You’d best send a OTA feature request to homey.app/support.

But,  
you probably can upgrade your devices with an Aeotec z-wave stick (just connect to PC/Laptop) without removing the device from Homey. Just search this forum for details / howto’s.

Qubino is now part of Shelly btw.

According to Homey Podcast #3 from October 10, 2024, @Emile said that it’s technically possible to perform firmware updates for Z-Wave and Zigbee with the Homey Pro (early 2023), but this feature would have to be integrated by the app developers into their apps. Please take a look at this excerpt:

[![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/e/2/e24f57ccc6b27f0b5a7e4aa6fb143ca77809f525.jpeg "The Homey Podcast #3 • Talking Best Buy Guides with Dino • Smart Home Trends, IFA Highlights + More") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cYTS-St6AQg&t=2104)

However, I have already been informed by two app developers that Athom doesn’t provide any information on how this feature should be implemented in the Homey apps.

As @Peter_Kawa has already mentioned, it’s possible to update the firmware of Z-Wave devices using a workaround without having to remove the devices first. Here are the instructions for doing so:

> **[Z -Stick Gen 5 (+) as Secondary Controller in Homey](https://aeotec.freshdesk.com/support/solutions/articles/6000263528-z-stick-gen-5-as-secondary-controller-in-homey)**
>
> With version 3.9.0x, the Z-Stick Gen5+ is recognized as a device in Homey and can be used as a secondary controller. What do you need this for: Firmware updates of devices Use of sensor data outside Homey Backup of network data Configura...

However, I would still recommend contacting the app developer Qubino and also Athom.

By the way, “Official” doesn’t necessarily mean that the app is from Athom or the device manufacturer itself.  
Among other things, “Official” means that this app also works with a Homey Bridge and, for cloud services, even with the Homey Cloud.  
Furthermore, unlike community apps, these apps are better checked by Athom. Whatever that means.
