    I used this add-on to successfully update the firmware on my sonoff dongle 3.0 plus. I used the latest koenkk firmware, cc1352p2_cc2652p_launchpad , as indicated in the add-on for sonoff dongles and so far it has seemed to fix all of the problems I have been having in ZHA over the past month or so. Thank you for this tutorial, I will be sure to check in from time to time to see if there will be newer firmware to keep my dongle updated.

    Wow, I'm glad I stumbled upon this video. I just started with HA and I'm building a new Zigbee network from the ground up. I wanted to make sure my adapter was up to date on firmware and after I read through the firmware update PDF on the Z2M site I was pretty exasperated. It was going to take me at least an hour to update with that method. Instead I was done in about 10 minutes and all my devices reconnected without issue when I fired up Z2M again. Thanks!

    • @BeardedTinker
      @BeardedTinker  Před 7 měsíci +1

      It shouldn't break the network. But as with everything, things can go wrong. You could do stick backup (in both ZHA and Zigbee2MQTT) to be safe. So far I haven't had any issues, but you know Murphy's law - if things can go sideways, they'll go.

    • @BeardedTinker
      @BeardedTinker  Před 7 měsíci +2

      You usually need coordinator - they can than be used with both ZHA and Zigbee2MQTT - router is needed only if you buy multiple sticks and want to use others to extend your network.

    • @dumpsterdiner

      To verify what stick you have, go to Settings, System and Hardware. There click on All hardware and look for ttyACM0 (or ttyUSB0). There you should see something like:
      /dev/serial/by-id/usb-ITEAD_SONOFF_Zigbee_3.0_USB_Dongle_Plus_V2_20220622105009-if00 - for Dongle-E or

    Hi, I updated coordinator firmware to my SONOFF Zigbee 3.0 USB Dongle Plus ZBDongle-P as your video and work smootly. But how do update my SONOFF Zigbee 3.0 USB Dongle Plus ZBDongle-P router? my router SONOFF Zigbee 3.0 USB Dongle Plus ZBDongle-P not connect via USB with Home Assistant. How do i update router in Zigbe2MQTT network? Thanks

      For routers that are not connected to HA directly (via USB or network cable) - you can use standard method of upgrade. Did video on that about a year ago. Or you can temporarily connect to your HA and use this to update with router firmware

      You can plug it temporarily to you HA system and flash with router firmware then install in required location

      There could be few things. Best bet is to open issue with author. But it could be that whatever you are using(ZHA or Zigbee2MQTT) is not allowing access to the device. Or that device can't via software enter bootloader mode.

      You better ask author on GitHub - he will gladly try and help - here is the link: github.com/mercenaruss/zigstar_addons/issues
      My only question that pops on my mind is - did you stop ZHA/Zigbee2MQTT? It says that not all services could be started. Maybe that's the reason. Other one could be that you are using firmware for P on E dongle or other way around. Nothing else pops in my mind.

  • @AntonPopov_

    Great video by the way! I ran into a very weird problem. I have the Slaesh's CC2652RB stick and I used the latest "../Koenkk/Z-Stack-firmware/raw/Z-Stack_3.x.0_coordinator_20230507/coordinator/Z-Stack_3.x.0/bin/CC2652RB_coordinator_20230507.zip". Although Zigbee2MQTT works after the update, I cannot add any new devices to the zigbee network. Also I tried removing an already paired device and re add it but no success. Have you experienced such issue?

    • @BeardedTinker
      @BeardedTinker  Před 6 měsíci

      Thank you Anton!
      No, I haven't seen this. That's really strange one. You can try (if you already haven't) to remove the stick and insert it again. Also, you can try to reflash the same firmware on the device.
      How many devices do you have on your network?

    • @AntonPopov_
      @AntonPopov_ Před 6 měsíci +1

      Thanks for the reply! Yeah I've already tried plugging and unplugging the stick. Tried to reflash it twice. Also at some point I tried flashing it with a previous firmware version but it seems there's some kind of check and you can only flash newer firmware versions. I do think though that it's somehow connected with the Zigbee2MQTT addon for HA. I just reinstalled the addon - as you can guess it didn't help. I noticed that everytime I try to delete a paired device - there's an exception thrown and I need to check the "force remove button". I really can't think of anything else I can do..

    • @BeardedTinker
      @BeardedTinker  Před 6 měsíci

      Can you stil control other devices (turn them on/off)? BTW - one thing does pop on my mind - can you verify (redownload) firmware - maybe you flashed router firmware instead of coordinator? Not sure how this would actually work. Just to be on the safe side. github.com/Koenkk/Z-Stack-firmware/blob/master/coordinator/Z-Stack_3.x.0/bin/CC2652RB_coordinator_20230507.zip

    • @AntonPopov_
      @AntonPopov_ Před 6 měsíci

      About the firmware - yes I double checked that I've installed the coordinator firmware. The weird thing is that I only receive data from paired devices. I have an Aqara FP1 presence sensor and when I try to "reset" it's state through ZigbeetoMQTT's UI it's throwing and exception that the action failed. So any interaction with the devices fails but the paired devices report their state.
