HTTPError after initialization #121

Closed jhk1620 closed 5 months ago

jhk1620 commented 5 months ago

Question, Is anyone else getting these issue within the last few days? "After initialization - HttpError(Error getting smart home device state. Reason: Timeout)". Everything was working a few days ago and everything in debug mode looks fine. The plugin sees all my device, but after it initialize I get this message and nothing is work out of my 26 devices I have setup. When going into HomeKit and try to click on one of the devices, it appears to act like it turn the switch on or off in HomeKit, but when checking the logs in homebridge it does not do anything. Any thoughts on what is going on?

Node.js Version v20.12.1 v 2.1.4

Issue is with smart life products and Alexa. Plugin is working fine. Looks like smart life took an update about 5 days ago around April 1, 2024, that may have broke something.

[homebridge-alexa-smarthome] After initialization - HttpError(Error getting smart home device state. Reason: Timeout)

NOTE TO EVERYONE: depending on your smart plug, switches, or anything into smart life from amazon, there is a firmware issue with items in smart life. Some of the devices have updates and others do not. Ones with firmware updates will work fine after that. Other will not as they are running into homebridge. @joeyhage. The above error message is what I am getting with this. Firmware updates just released on some of the plugs and switches worked and others did not. So I am not for sure if there is some coding causing this or not.

@joeyhage Device on with the older version number give the above error message. This will cause all of the remaining devices to stop working. So if you have 10 devices to setup, the first 9 are update with the firmware, then they will work. You add a 10 device with older firmware, then all 10 will stop working since the 10 one has the older version number. I am not for sure if smart life and any thing else that feeds into this is declouding or not. Hope this makes since. At this point, I just replace the switches with direct integrated HomeKit plugs. But still have a few things on smart life from the Alexa app.
