Cant get conbee 2 working fully anymore on fresh install

Configuration
1

I’ve been using HA with conbee 2 for a few years and it worked fine till today. I have raspberry pi 4, 64 bit image sconbee connected to USB 2 port.

I wanted to start fresh today, reset the conbee 2 and flashed a new image of HA. Setup goes fine, conbee2 is discovered. I can install deconz and configure (there are 2 options, one short and one long:

  1. /dev/ttyAMA0
  2. /dev/serial/by-id/usb-dresden_elektronik_ingenieurtechnik_GmbH_ConBee_II_DE2190044-if00

I am not sure but I have tried a few times. First way:

  1. On discovered devices, I configure conbee. Ok so far:
    first_config_under_discovered1

  2. Then install deconz latest from the add on store and configure it (here I’m also not sure which unit to choose). I can log into deconz and add devices but then I go back to discovered devices and now:
    first_config_under_discovered2

I have these errors in the log:
Couldn’t start deCONZ = dresden elektronik deCONZ protocol: ConBee I/II, RaspBee I/II coordinator

I have also tried different USB ports. I’ve spent all day with this, I cant figure it out. Thank you in advance.

edit1:
After many hours and tests I tried flashing todays latest firmware from:
https://deconz.dresden-elektronik.de/deconz-firmware/?C=M;O=D

but the problem is still there. Is there a certain firmware I need? (I flashed with this version deCONZ_ConBeeII_0x26780700.bin.GCF)

I just noticed something, maybe there was an integration called deconz before and not the conbee integration because the icon looks a bit different, and they dont seem to go well together.

I gave up on my Conbee 2 until I found Zigbee2MQTT. Personally the best choice IMO. https://www.zigbee2mqtt.io/ Super easy setup. I used this guide to get going How to Install Zigbee2MQTT in Home Assistant - TUTORIAL - NEW VERSION - YouTube

I think you are mixing ZHA and deconz integration. I have my conbee2 working with deconz, only.

Yes, I think I’ve been tricked by the automatic finding of zha (the integration with a Z icon) which probably is something I didnt use before.
