2025.5 Beta Week

I installed the x.b0 beta 3.5 hours ago. So far all good. :+1: Happy days.

Good initiative to announce this @MissyQ :+1:

My test instance is on Core 2025.4.0b10 & OS 15.2 but I don’t get presented the new beta release

Is there a way to force/install manually?

Super excited about the DHCP/mDNS page so you can see what HA sees in discovery. That’s SUPER cool! Saves me digging out Wireshark!

Yeah, well
 sadly these voice options are pretty much limited to english (and perhaps some other main languages). I still have only two: male and female in Slovenian language

(this post is not related to the BETA)

Maybe there is an issue with the stats, because I do use this one


and have all analytics enabled

and I know others are using it because of some forum posts I came across.

The functionality is limited however sufficient (for me)

So we can keep a beta post open after this one is closed

Did not have any problems with my dashboard, but I don’t use custom cards.


My temp and humidity sensors now show 2digits. But I do not believe my zigbee sensors are this precise.
Are those values correct or is this a bug?

I don’t see this behaviour

(2025.5.0b1)

I’m also on (2025.5.0b1)
but maybe it’s device specific

I see the double digits for "Sonoff TH01 by eWeLink "( SNZB-02) devices
but not for "Sonoff SNZB-02P by eWeLink "

[Edit]: when Checking the history I see this precision is only available after intalling the beta (2025.5.0b1)
on v 2025.4.4 there was only one decimal value.
and I didn’t install b0

[edit2]:
I might be related to this change,

I can’t find quirks for either of my mentioned devices.
So maybe the first one just sends those precision, which doesn’t make any sense as the margin is 0.2

All of my dashboards got deleted :frowning:

Trying to remake stuff now, but Lovelace changes won’t save. It says “Successfully saved” but changes don’t get saved.

I have plenty of disc space.

I am finding this upgrade to be extremely buggy.

I have strange behaviar when creating a new automation.

When I create the Automation, Save it and navigate away, I get this dialog


with the name prefilled.
It will disappear after a few seconds, as everything is already saved.
When I click save I get this message

and then the automation is there twice

on 2025.5.0b3

I tried this a couple of times, and every time this happens.

Edit:
I do not have any configuration issues according to this:

Updating HA doesn’t touch dashboards. They are stored in the .storage folder inside config. This sounds like a caching issue on the surface. The other option is that you are running container and made your config inside the container instead of outside the container.

I just updated to b4 and I’m not seeing this. Are you still seeing it after you update?

Great beta!

I found a small bug; the sorting on IP-adress on the DHCP page does nog work as expected;

192.169.2.251 comes before 192.168.2.59

Other than that, great addition to have! Thanks!

Because they are sorted as strings.

That’s ok. ChatGPT also claims that 9.11 is bigger than 9.9: :rofl: (that was appr. one month ago, it could be that they changed to correct answer by now)

(edit: yep, they did correct that
)

I still see this in 2025.5.0b4
(but only if I navigate away to another page after the first save immediately.
if I wait 10 seconds or something the issue doesn’t occur.
in both Chrome(Edge) and Firefox on Win11

I assume the javascript to set some (changed) boolean has a little delay.

Maybe it’s not related to the beta and just a coincidence that I notice it now.
