Switch goes back to off regardless of toggling it on or off.

[mmatus1112]

I have a smart power strip with 6 smart plugs. I can see them in HA, however, they all show as toggled off. If I toggle them on, the device comes on, the toggle comes back off immediately but the plug remains on. To turn it off, I have to toggle on and toggle off quickly. So, I think the problem is that HA is not showing the current state of the devices.

Same thing happening here since the official release of the integration. The device is a 5KW, 32A electrical switch - model designation L821X. All 6 required API authorizations are added to the cloud account project. The Home Assistant representation of the entity does not retain the current status of the device.

This affects not only the visual representation, but also HA state history and Automations that use the switch state as condition/trigger.

Example:

Starting from states:

• Phys. switch is OFF
• Cloud Device State is OFF (in IoT Cloud Project)
• Home Assistant representation is OFF

Action Sequence	Performed Actions	Physical Switch State	Cloud Device State	Home Assistant Representation State
1	Human operates physical switch: OFF --> ON	ON	ON	Remains OFF
2	Human toggles Switch representation in HA UI: OFF --> ON	ON	ON	Toggles to ON, 2 seconds pass, returns back to OFF
3	Human rapidly toggles Switch's visual representation in HA UI (within <2 seconds): OFF --> ON --> OFF	OFF	OFF	OFF
4	Automation_1 runs and toggles switch: OFF --> ON	ON	ON	OFF
5	Automation_2 runs and uses condition: If the switch is ON, then turn it OFF	Remains ON	Remains ON	Has remained OFF and has caused the condition check to eval to false
6	Automation_3 runs: if time(now) == 13:00: turn switch --> OFF	OFF	OFF	OFF
7	Automation_3 runs: if time(now) == 15:00: turn switch --> ON	ON	ON	OFF

Facing the same issue here with all my tuya devices. I already double checked and im corretly subscribed into device status API on IOT plataform.

I'am using HA supervised, core updated to last version. Tuya V2 in the last release v 1.50

[thomo55]

Same for me, updated to lated ha version, created tuya iot project added 25 devices and now the toggle is not working properly. Any fixes yet, before I delete tuya integration?

[cjackson234]

Same here. Hoping for a fix soon.

[henriquelssantiago]

All my tuya devices is facing the same issue. I realized that HA gets only the state of the device when HA starts. After that, the status doesn't change anymore, and when I toggle something, the status changes, but goes back to what it was before

for example:

in that example, we can see different values to energy monitoring:

33mA was the value exactly at the time when HA started.

I am also having the same issues describe in the thread. Everything updated to latest versions

[Plargio]

I was able to resolve my issue by doing the following

1) making sure that I had Device Status Notification added in My Services in the Tuya IoT Platform 2) making sure that my project was added to the Device Status Notification service 3) a new Access ID/Client ID and Access Secret/Client Secret were generated after I added the Device Status Notification, so I had to update them in my Home Assistant Tuya setup.

And now the switches toggle properly and stay on the correct setting.

Step 2 is very important, because it looks like the project is not automatically added when the service is added; it has to be manually added.

Hope this helps so of you.

thank you so much my tuya devices now responding ok.

For my case I had to create a new Cloud project and make sure that ALL 6 authorizations (including Device Status Notification) were added during the project creation wizard. With the original project it did not matter whether I removed or added authorizations, removed or added SmartLife/Tuya app accounts - the device status would not update.

hello!

same problem here. core-2021.10.4, supervisor-2021.10.0, Home Assistant OS 6.5 tuya_v2: 1.6.0

When HA start, it show the device correct status, but later, not changed anything. When i try to change the status by hand, nothing happend. The log, after HA started: 2021-10-15 21:54:33 DEBUG (Thread-4) [tuya iot] _on_log: Sending PINGREQ 2021-10-15 21:54:33 DEBUG (Thread-4) [tuya iot] _on_log: Received PINGRESP 2021-10-15 21:55:33 DEBUG (Thread-4) [tuya iot] _on_log: Sending PINGREQ 2021-10-15 21:55:34 DEBUG (Thread-4) [tuya iot] _on_log: Received PINGRESP 2021-10-15 21:56:34 DEBUG (Thread-4) [tuya iot] _on_log: Sending PINGREQ 2021-10-15 21:56:34 DEBUG (Thread-4) [tuya iot] _on_log: Received PINGRESP

But nothing else. If i turn on the tuya powered switch: 2021-10-15 21:57:46 DEBUG (SyncWorker_7) [tuya iot] Request: method = POST, url = https://openapi.tuyaeu.com/v1.0/devices/xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/commands, params = None, body = {'commands': [{'code': 'switch_1', 'value': True}]}, t = XXXXXXXX66236 2021-10-15 21:57:46 DEBUG (SyncWorker_7) [tuya iot] Response: { "result": true, "success": true, "t": XXXXXXXX66704 }

But the switch stay off in HA.

I'm also having similar control issues with a Tuya thermostate.

By the way, what happens after the 1 month trial period expires in Tuya IOT? The device connection API subscription costs $5000.

Seems to me that we are gonna have to revert to a custom integration from this bloated ransomware

[bockelaar]

same here, all latest, new tuya project created. On restart HA picks up state well, toggling switch to off turns off the light but keeps the HA toggle to on. Toggling HA again the light turns on again. State seems to only update at HA restart.

Hello,

thanx, same procedure helped on my side - it was needed to create new project and add all 5 (!) authorizations and after removal (!) of Tuya integration and re-adding it again it started to work as expected. Before removal I tried only simple change of tuya auth parameters and restart HA, but still it was not working.
