Update broke my LCARS theme. Seems like it broke all Theme entities. Was that left out.
BTW, this whole system ROCKS! Minor challenges but overall I love how my apartment is totally automated. Thank you all.

So awesome that Apollo is coming on-board. At this timeā¦litterally right now. 8:12pm ct, I am working with their MSR-2 and configuring it. Letās go!!!
BACKUPS
- A year or so ago, I added a samba share on my NAS as a backup LOCATION (I can find it under system-> storage )
- A little while ago I added one of my Google drive accounts for backing up. (an elaborate system of getting tokens and verifying credentials)
But where in home assistant can I find the account and its settings?
It isnt a network storage location.
Under backup ā settings and history / locations, (using the gear icon) I can ONLY enable or disable the encryption.
Where do I manage the Google drive location.
I come to this question because after upgrading to 2025.3.0 , Synology DSM integration gives me an error "backup location not configured for NAME_NAS
The previously made backups are still downloadable (suggesting there is not an actual issue with the backup location)
And indeed, a manual backup works just fine.
the āThermoBeaconā integration no longer works
all my 6 hygrometers no longer output data

Broke BlueTooth on my HA Green.
Resorted to rolling back to 2.5
@ iamjohnchapman my LCARS seemed just fine with this 3.0 update.
Couldnāt live without bluetooth so Iām glad I made sure the system made a backup of everything before updating.
The restore of the backup went quite smoothly after an initial panic that it was taking a little while (10-20mins at most I think it was to restore).
back to 2025.2.5 than all ok
Thanks for another update full of nice functionality!
After the update the app feels quite a bit slower (do not have anything concrete, but it feels as if the main dashboard takes about 3 times longer to load). Anyone else experiences the same?
Edit: the slow loading is on all pages through the app. Opening Home Assistant on mobile browser on same phone does not have the sluggishness.
Edit2: all is running normal after re-authenticating SmartThings integration
During the beta, I got repairs I should update my bleproxies with ESPHome 2025.2.1 or later
No I get the same , but for ESPHome 2025.2.2 or later
What is so urgent about these updates ?
Hello,
compliments, I love the changed view of Charts!
- Good Work!
But the complete updates are much of work and in mho they are very well!
Many thanks!
Hey guys,
Does anyone export LLM outputs to Alexa?
How does it go with the new LLM streaming?
Thanks 
I am not sure how I feel about the breaking change regarding the proximity. I can understand user cases that you want to know the distance from the edge, however, I have a need to know the distance to the center. I would have opted for two entities, one for distance to center, and another the distance from the edge (perhaps with a minus value when somebody is within the zone, showing the distance towards the edge)

Did anyone tried new eshome logging into HA? Iām playing with it, but not fully understand WHERE exactly logging is saved? I came so far that i did enable logging (of one device for test) and it seems that it works, but i can come to this log only when i disable debug logging again when browser automatically downloads log file. Is there anywhere i can see it live while running? Canāt find itā¦
yes, mentioned this since the previous release, in both beta cycles, but not feedback.
Former Nas share seems to linger around in the system, and blocking if asleep. but no mention of it anywhere.
My Nas now is configured via the integration and the Network share was removed.
Smooth upgrade with no issues, thank you team. Special shoutout to the people who worked on the Grouping/clustering within maps, itās a small but very nice inclusion!
What does this exactly mean? Iām using a Synology NAS for nightly backups and for storing Frigate recordings and snapshots.
If network shares are removed with HA 2025.3.x how to backup and store files onto a NAS? 
This toggle feature is in my opinion the most important update to the Tile card! The card is now much more intuitive. My family is very happy with this improvement.

The new core update breaks a few integrations, such as Dreame Vacuum, Merros IoT. How should I report the issue?
1 Like
On the Dreame Vacuum github
For the Dreame custom component, this is being tracked here (with a workaround).
Before, My NAS was connected as a Network Share, and those shares can be selected as backup location in the Backup config flow.
In the recent developments of the Backup integrations, the Synology integration also changed and now offers the option to set the Synology as a Backup location in the integration config flow itself (which is the recommended way)
During those changes, somehow my Network share was removed/no longer recognized, but the NAS successfully located via the integration.
I dont use the NAS as a location in the Automatic settings, because it is asleep during the optimal backup time.
And yet, it still throws the error during the backup time.
Only thing this can be is the former NAS Network share ghosting around somewhere, and there is no clue whereā¦
So to get this straight:
NO, network shares were not removed with 2025.3!
MY network share was somehow disposed ofā¦
As described above, recommended way is to do so via the integration config flow:
