Need Help Connecting Tuya Thermometer TS0201 by _TZ3000_fllyghyj

Configuration Zigbee

Hello, I am still pretty new to HA and am having issues with a Tuya temperature/humidity sensor that I’ve added via the ZHA integration. After a few iterations of adding and removing the device, I can get it to show up with data for temp, humidity, battery, etc. However, it never updates. I left it all night and the data didn’t change even once. The information reported by ZHA is TS0201 by _TZ3000_fllyghyj.

I found this https://github.com/zigpy/zha-device-handlers/issues/862#issuecomment-862582771 and this https://github.com/zigpy/zha-device-handlers/blob/4fcf1c1cedc288f0fc80f3d7e4d308eb1c43cb13/zhaquirks/tuya/ts0201.py which seem like they might help, but I have no idea what to do with this info.

Does anyone know what I can do to get the device to actively update the sensor data?

Do you have other Zigbee devices that are working? Assuming you have a USB co-ordinator, is it on a USB extension cable to avoid interference? Did you pair the sensor in place where it will live, rather than elsewhere.

I have two of them added via deCONZ, and although they work, deCONZ can’t open the property dialog for them (link) - so perhaps this same issue has more dramatic issues with ZHA?

Its a Tuya device, do you really expect it to work?

Like I said, pretty new to this ecosystem so I don’t know what to or not to expect. I have a couple of Tuya devices that work fine.

As for the coordinator, I have a Sonoff dongle on a USB extender. I have 2 other Zigbee devices attached with no issues.

Hi there. Take a look here. It might work for you too.

I can confirm: no need to dispose or return the Tuya devices, they work perfectly with newer versions.

To make things easier I pushed my environment to github:

It starts a version that is compatible with TS0201.
The advantage is: you only need docker installed, it runs on raspberry and PC (and probably also on Mac)

Usage:

git clone https://github.com/ludwigprager/home-assistant-in-container.git
./home-assistant-in-container/start.sh

So basically you are saying it works in ha 2023.3.0.dev20230216

This device seems to have support in z2m.

Hello, unfortunately those devices will not stay connected and become unavailable after a few delivered values. They start flashing again and then do not report anymore. Any idea?
“manufacturer”: “_TZ3000_fllyghyj”,
“model”: “TS0201”,
“name”: “_TZ3000_fllyghyj TS0201”,

Using ZHA or Z2M or something else?

Same as above with ZHA
One of 8 devices.
Another “flickering” device - motion sensor, but here will be off topic.

11

I think someone will need logs to debug it.

12

If you can help me to find a way to retrieve these logs (I assume debug mode need to be turned on), will be very grateful.

Thanks again.
Added homeassistant.components.zha.core.device: info to logger, will monitor

This suggestion to add a quirks file (my first) worked for me.

I added

zha:
  custom_quirks_path: /config/custom_zha_quirks/

in my configuration file and then added the suggested quirk to the new folder I made and rebooted HA.

However, these sensors do not update fast enough, so in the end they are useless for me.
