Same situation here. I have tried to compile a NCP-UART updated version with Simplicity Studio but it seems not available. Only the multi protocol Openthread / Zigbee is available, but I get some errors during compilation. Indeed a Silabs expert would help. |

@jnilo1 to configure a tcp port in the Silicon Labs Multiprotocol module in Home Assistant you need to use the advanced button. Anyway I did it previosly and it seems that the RCP-UART-802154 is too recent (v5) fot the add-on (v4).. Have a look and let me know. |

Not sure if I'm meant to ask general question, but would you guys still advise getting this silvercrest bridge and hacking it to use it for Zigbee2Mqtt? It's criminally cheap atm (€15 for the bridge, a dimmer switch and 3 bulbs!). Or should I just get a standalone coordinator at this stage? |

I am stuck in my tests. While trying to understand the cause of the halt in the boot sequence I probably corrupted my bootloader since it now stops without completing its process: Any idea/suggestion on how to recover my boot prompt ? |

I finally recovered my boot prompt by desoldering the memory flash and restoring the original firmware with a CH341A programmer and flashrom with the ch341a_spi adapter. I was fortunate enough to have a full backup of the gateway 5 mtd original partitions :-) |

@slkreuzer. In case you want to try I can upload the latest folder. I had to resize memory and other parameters, in principle everything should be there, but in the SimplicityStudio it is hard to understand where exactly things are stored. |

Here is the release. @skinkie it is not a big bang, just an update. https://www.silabs.com/documents/public/release-notes/emberznet-release-notes-7.5.0.0.pdf |

Whoua, very impressed and interested of all I read here, as I use a LidlBox too. I hope to be able to keep it long time, as this works like a charm ! Using the Ember driver would halp to keep Z2M up to date with my LidlBoxes ! I wouldn't abuse of your time, but, could any of You have a quick look on another thread related to using many LidlBox connected to the same MQTT server (#26689) ? Thank You so much ! |

Dear @jnilo1, Is the script suitable for all types of LIDLBox, as mine doesn't have any ventilation holes at the top (just two green LEDs). Ideally, it would be really nice to have an archive containing everything. Thank you in advance, |

Mine also has no holes, only two green LEDs. Check inside that your zigbee module is a TYZS4. MCU processor is a RealTek(RTL8196E), box has no importance. If it is already free from tuya check before if the command line: |

Good evening, I finally managed the update of one of my LIDLBoxes successfully : firmware upgrade to 7.5.0 (many thanks goes to @jnilo1), upgrade to the latest Z2M docker container version (v2.2.1) and using the "ember" driver. The before-migration connected devices still remain available from the frontend of the Web-UI and connect to my broker. I did exactly the same steps to a second LIDLBox, but I lost all of the before-migration connected devices from the Web-UI now ... When looking at the migration logs (3 files), no errors appears. When looking at the configuration yaml file, all the devices are present ... Is there a know bug related to the 2.2.1 version maybe ? Please help, as I wouldn't have to connect again all my devices ... |

Hello all, I'm trying to OTA update device ICPSHC24-10EU-IL-1 via Lidl Gateway and I'm getting error. Is it connected to firmware of Lidl gateway or is it device issue that it's being updated ` |

Hello,
I've been a (very,) very happy zigbee2mqtt user for serveral years now.
Using 2 Silvercrest/Lidl hacked network gateways located in 2 parts of the house covered by wired network but no zigbee continuity between them (several floors are in between) - hence the 2 networked gateways.
This configuration works flawlessly : my 2 Zigbee networks are solid, my (various brand) devices work really nicely and Home Assistant works as a perfect coordinator between all of them.
All in all a very good experience (-:
Theses days, I've read notifications and news which lead me to understand that I wouldn't be able to use these gateways at one point because :
Sorry for asking such a basic question but I'm having a hard time consolidating all the info I've come across on the web.
Am I right in assuming that my adapters are doomed if I go on using/updating zigbee2mqtt ?
If so, that actually sounds weird because... everything actually works perfect and I can't actually see what could be improved (in my own particular situation).
Thanks in advance for any precision on this !
