Hi all, like a few people on here I accidently upgraded ramses_rf to the pre-release versions and I've managed to just about get by with it for my evohome setup until the last couple of updates. To help others I've create a copy of version 0.55.3 and fixed config flow so that you can install and maintain via the gui until the evohome issues are fixed.

Like others in the thread, I followed the guide on ramses_cc github to install from scratch to get back up and running but it seems happy now. The only file changed in my version is config_flow.py.

Hope it helps someone else out.

Cheers
Spence

That sounds fantastic. Ill give it a try when i get back home. Do i totally uninstall and remove any remnants from folders beforehand? Thanks

Hi, I followed these slightly edited steps from the wiki.

Completely install from scratch

  • backup the ramses_cc folder and ramses_cc file from home assistant
  • Screenshot and or copy all settings from the config flow setup, known device list and schema etc..
  • remove the Ramses RF integration from home assistant
  • restart HA
  • delete the ramses_cc file from the .storage folder. For this you may use the HA Terminal add-on, type cd /config/.storage/ to access the hidden dir and remove the ramses_cc file in there by typing rm ramses_cc. The ramses_cc folder should be gone at this point.
  • restart HA again
  • now install Ramses RF by either
  1. download the ramses_cc folder from my repo and manually copy it to the custom_components folder (probably more desirable as the main ramses repo will remain and can be used to upgrade once the bugs are ironed out.
  2. remove the existing ramses repo from HACS and add mine then install via the usual method
  • and restart HA...
  • Now re-add the integration via the devices and services page as usual, follow config flow, fingers crossed everything should work.....

Thanks @spencerwebb189, I've got it up and running and it looks promising. If all works out and my DHW automation works again I'll be over the moon.

Thanks again for your effort.
