If you install the test version of the (new) Brel app, you can add the 433MHz devices again without hub.

Interesting. I was tempted to create a new app from the old example Brel source code.

Where do I find the test version?

Edit

Oh, lol. Just add “test” to URL.

Seems to work fine except two of the shades not always reacting. But it’s the same with the original remote, so either an antenna issue or maybe they need to be reset.

Just got my Homey Pro 2023, and after a check and firmware upgrade I needed to reset it with a pin into the hole at bottom to start the migration. There is no reset button, and the pin (apple iPhone pin) just reach nothing. How deep is the button, is the button missing, or is the hole misaligned (see the light coming from it but nothing else)?

last idea - you are trying it again and again, eg. you did some breaks to cooldown Homey, right?  
If so, I’m out of ideas, “sorry for your loss” (I know it’s a thing 🙂 )
