If I restart Homey the message will not occur. Anybody with a hint? ---

I think you should report this to Athom, while you run beta firmware (you’re a firmware tester now). You can revert to stable firmware I you don’t want to be a tester: > [@\[HOWTO\]\[PRO 201x\] Revert from experimental to stable firmware](https://community.homey.app/t/howto-pro-revert-from-experimental-to-stable-firmware/63200): > > Limitations You couldn’t & you can’t revert from the current stable firmware to the previous stable firmware version Example: Reverting from v7.3.0 to 7.2.0 → cross_mark Reverting from v7.3.0-RC.22 to v7.2.0 → white_check_mark → [Click here](https://community.homey.app/t/howto-pro-2023-revert-from-experimental-to-stable-firmware/100752) for the Pro 2023 howto Prerequisites: a backup! the [Recovery mode & adv. options guide](https://community.homey.app/t/howto-pro-restarting-homey-pro-to-recovery-mode-adv-options-from-mobile/61222) by @Dijker might come in handy.

No problem, Peter, nice to hear. > [@Peter\_Johnsson](#): > > there is three weeks waiting time… They say “expected response time: three weeks”, which is not the same as “it takes us three weeks” 😬 It probably is stated to prevent users from requesting ticket updates every day. Which slows the process down even more 😉 There’s a priority system, some users got helped the same day. ---

I thought that my old HP2016 was ready for the bin. So I ordered a HP2023 and got it the day before yesterday. GREAT!, I thought: easy to migrate from the old one with the back-up, a little extra time spent on Zigbee devices that needed to be reinstalled. But I think Athom already thought of this and had made the procedure fairly easy to do. WELL… Last night when I wanted to turn off all lights in my living room: RED ALERT! “Reached maximum message queue size” Same story - restart Homey and all of a sudden it works. O’boy, was I disapointed! Now I am in waiting mode for Athom’s reply on my ticket - for the old HP2016 To be continued. //Peter ---

Having the same issue. Leviton zwave device is giving the same error. Works for a day when I restart it. I’m considering giving up and returning my homey device. This is supposed to make it work with Alexa but not a thing has worked so far. I tried some smartwings zigbee window shades they don’t work. Give an error message during pairing. ---
