How to remove duplicate Z Wave devices?

Configuration Z-Wave
1

My Shelly Wave Roller Shutter just received an update (12.23 to 14.2). For the update to work I had to factory reset the devices. After doing so a duplicate entry appeared in the Home Assistant Z Wave integration. One with the old an one with the new firmware. The device with the old firmware is in a limbo state, has no entities and it says:

This device has been provisioned but is not yet included in the network.

I reloaded the z wave integration and restarted home assistant but nothing worked. I canā€™t delete the devices either. Any idea how to remove it?

I had a rather similar experience a few days ago caused by the (initially) faulty replacement of a Zwave device. I found that it had been caused by HA trying to re-interview the duplicate, but removed, devices. At that time I was unable to remove those devices but when the re-interview process ended I was able to remove them.
In short, try to remove these tomorrow morning.

This does not happen if you name device in zwavejsui.

When replace or remove/readd device if you use same name HA will recognize as same device. Reload of integration may be needed but usually not.

Iā€™m donā€™t think naming is available for zwavejs if you use that but transition to zwavejsui is possible.

My issue was differentā€¦ For one reason or the other, the including of the new device failed several times when using the HA App on my Iphone but it created ā€˜phantomā€™ devices in HA. I finally included the device succesfully after power cycling my Yellow Box. At first I was at first unable to remove these ā€˜phantomā€™ devices but I did after the re-interview process ended.

I still canā€™t remove it. Under Settings ā†’ Devices the delete action for zwave devices is greyed out. I can only deactivate the device. Under Zwave JS it shows up only once, which is correct.

Did you try it after power cycling the unit that contains HA ?

Aaargh with previous wave shutter update they changed polarity of all switches. Now itā€™s factory reset :expressionless:. Worst of all venetian blinds donā€™t work in Home Assistant (no tilt on entity). Shelly updates are really scary.

I restarted the entire maschine, did not work.

I think the issue is that Shelly renamed the product code in the firmware update from QLSH-001P10 to QLSH-001P10EU. The not working device is still showing the old product code. I still havenā€™t figured out how to delete it.

When I reloaded zwave integration duplicates disappeared, but after I re-interviewed 1 device it appeared again as duplicate.

There is a fix that seems to be related:

Maybe it helps.

Thank you, Iā€™ll wait for the next HA Core release and see what happens

Link above is incorrect. This is the proper one (to PR):

I upgraded to 2026.1.1 and venetian blinds are supported again.

Now I just have to configure and calibrate 9 blinds, and retest 18 automations and it should be ok
