Zigbee OTA to BLE not working

[HennieLP]

if i add the Zigbee db15-0203-99993001-ATC_v48.zigbee file to my ota folder and rename it to .ota it just says Newes version installed if i try to update it to the BLE Version using Home Assistant and ZHA

According to the revert Zigbee to BLE procedure you don’t rename .zigbee to .ota.

see https://smarthomescene.com/guides/how-to-setup-zigbee2mqtt-local-ota-index/

having said that the procedure doesn’t work for me it just keeps saying I have the latest FW installed.

~~I have the same issue - Zigbee2Mqtt shows me OTA update with v48 (tried v47 and v46 as well), but once I try to do the update - it say newest version already installed...~~

So how to revert back to BLE?

Seems that I mixed up the firmware versions from devbis (v46) and pvvx (v47/v48).

Reverting back to BLE in the end worked very well with db15-0203-99993001-ATC_v46.zigbee defined in my OTA configuration for zigbe2mqtt:

[
  {
    "url": "ota/db15-0203-99993001-ATC_v46.zigbee",
    "force": true
  }
]

I got it working with pvvx V47 in the end.

What got it going was a HA restart and not just a Zigbee2MQTT restart.

Hi everyone, I try to revert back to BLE from Version 3001-1100. OTA update always say: "not a valid OTA file". I tried it with three different firmware files: 1141-0203-99993001-ATC_v46.zigbee 1141-020a-01233001-Z03MMC.zigbee db15-0203-99993001-ATC_v46.zigbee

Anyone an idea?

Did somebody ever achieve rolling back to BLE using ZHA, as the inital poster asked? ZHA is really a pain in the ass if it comes to this...

As above; yes.

!? Where? You talk about Zigbee2MQTT, not ZHA

Oops sorry, it’s been a while, yes, mine was Zigbee2MQTT back to BLE.

Zigbee2MQTT 1.42.0-1 LYWSD03MMC-z Firmware version 3001-0124 I am trying back to BLE. I think all config like my_index.json bits done correctly I am getting error no file or directory, but after uploading 1141-0203-99993001-ATC_v46.zigbee to ota folder all the time respond is "z2m: no update available for..." or (ic 'zigbee2mqtt/bridge/response/device/ota_update/check', payload '{"data":{"id":"LaukoM1","updateAvailable":false},"status":"ok","transaction":"yizbj-7"}')

@arnizzz you use firmware from another author. Try use firmware with a different device code.

Zigbee2mqtt shows Custom devices (DiY) - LYWSD03MMC with Firmware-Version 3001-1100 Zigbee log: installed_version":285224961,"latest_version":285224961

whitch firmware file is to use to get device updated to LYWSD03MMC**-z** with Firmware 3001-0123 ?

[arnizzz]

I used the file Zigbee Firmware: Z03MMC_v0124.bin assigned in pvvx.github.io/ATC_MiThermometer/TelinkMiFlasher.html Thank you Devbis. I understood that LYWSD03MMC is 0203 but after trying a different 020a from pvvx/ATC_MiThermometer, I got a good update. Now it is in BLE.

[derbullifahrer]

@arnizzz whitch one did you use? can you post link and filename? would be helpful. - Thanks

still doesn't get OTA to run. Error is "z2m: Failed to check if update available for 'Xiaomi' (Not a valid OTA file)"

[mcbyte-it]

Same issue here, currently on: Custom devices (DiY) | LYWSD03MMC | 20231109 | 3001-1006

Can't update to any other firmware, not even newer zigbee, always give no update available. I tried with the 0203 and 020a versions, v46-v50-v51. always the same.

I have a SONOFF ZBDongle-E with firmware v7.4.4

I have been doing some research after completely failing on all of my attempts to go back to Bluetooth and I found this comment (https://github.com/pvvx/ZigbeeTLc/issues/11#issuecomment-1819887341) which if I am not wrong says that if you flashed the device with a fw lower than 0.1.0.3 you cannot go back to the bluetooth firmware by OTA, Someone please correct me if am wrong

[devbis]

It's only related to pvvx's version of the firmware. Check if you have that firmware
