```auto Hi, I updated to 2.8 today, I made a manual backup and R5 still doesn't work, I saved the LOG file 76Mb, should I send it all or just a part of it, if I need it all I can send it as a maximum drive link. I attached it, maybe I can send it that way. Regards.

Was hoping to find in 2.8 some new devices coming across in the Matter bridge from my iHost. So far no new smoke/light sensors (virtual) found. No longer bridged to my Homekit and Smartthings hubs 4 Tuya motion sensors that worked till now. Oh well🤷‍♂️ ---

Thank you team for this update and for the update to ver 1.4.0 for TRVZB. Few points to bring to your attention: 1. It is still difficult to reliably change the TRVZB valve open and close % value (applies to using Chrome and Firefox browsers- Windows11 and Chrome Browser- Android). - Outstanding Ticket ID 254564 2. TRVZB ‘Boost’ Function is not presented on the iHost Cast pane for the device. This means having to sign in and use the iHost Main Screen to activate the device ‘Boost’ feature or create scenes with real of virtual switches to activate ‘Boost’ from Cast. — It could make the feature more user friendly if Boost was added to the device cast pane for a future release. 3. With ‘Boost’ active the Target temperature is set to 35 deg C for a user defined time period. However during ‘Boost’ the TRVZB valve open % remains as set. So for example if for normal running the TRVZB valve open setting is 25% it will remain at that value during ‘Boost’. It seems logical that if an area is needed to be Boosted quickly then the TRVZB valve open % could be open to a higher or 100% value for the duration of the ‘Boost’ period returning to the normal running value at the end of ‘Boost’. Possible consideration for a future release ? ---

There seems to be a bug associated with eWeLink CUBE vV2.8.0/ TRVZB v1.4.0: For iHost Automatic and Manual Tap To Run Scenes if ‘BOOST’ or ‘SCHEDULE’ for a TRVZB is set in the THEN statement the device does not switch into ‘BOOST’ or ‘SCHEDULE’ when the IF Statement is satisfied (Auto Scene) or the Scene is executed (Manual Tap to run Scene) but ‘Success’ is displayed. Auto, Manual and OFF (Frost Protection) Thermostat modes are not affected. In the attached simple test manual scene if it is executed it will show ‘Success’ but the TRVZB does not switch to ‘Boost’ Reported via iHost Feedback with ticket ID256850 Update: From a scene the TRVZB does actually go into ‘Heating’ status but the displayed target temperature does not change to 35 deg C. The mode (Auto/ Manual/ OFF) does not change and the ‘Boost’ toggle switch does not flip over to the ON position. ![Screenshot 2025-11-13 102919](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/flex005/uploads/ewelinkforum/original/2X/5/5853333a7bd34c71a7ce59ed7c1b9f0fb922c413.png) ---

There are bugs associated with setting ‘Boost’ and ‘Schedule’ Thermostat modes from Automatic and Manual Tap to run scenes which means that the only way that Boost or Schedule can be initiated is from the TRVZB device card on iHost Main Screen. ---

> [@ociepa.ekotox](#): > > Devices added to the Hub mater smartthings station are now offline. Exactly, this is a result of the 2.8 update in which the iHost has lost the ability to pass them in the Matter bridge. In my case they are 4 of the same type of Zigbee device, a small and very useful motion sensor which is sold as eWelink compatible. ![IMG_4462](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/flex005/uploads/ewelinkforum/original/2X/2/23dd44e5cc6fe5e333b8cabadb1729ad439d22fa.jpeg) More importantly I see now that any virtual device created (switch, contact etc) in the _Node-red add-on will no longer show in the Matter bridge._ On the iHost they are now shown as : \*The following devices are not supported to be added to Matter-supported platforms yet. I have created before virtual devices in this way and they are still running correctly. Tagging @KwayLi99 @SuiKa ---

I also have had this for some time on earlier releases of eWeLink cube. Leave iHost on and this will eventually cease. I reported this to Sonoff via IHost feedback a while back but the ticket is still unresolved. ---

Just to update this:- when ‘Boost’ is initiated from a scene the TRVZB will actually go into ‘Heating’ status but the displayed target temperature will not change to 35 deg C, The mode (Auto/ Manual/ OFF) will not change and the ‘Boost’ switch toggle indicator will not move over to the right. ---

After the Moes TS0601 thermostat replacement, the Moes BHT series thermostat is not working properly. The temperatures on this thermostat are displayed in whole numbers and do not use a floating-point number. If possible, please replace it, as this affects temperature selection, device selection, and cube cast functionality. ---

Matter bridge is completely broken. Fix it urgently because it’s very important and many people will be left without a system if it’s not fixed soon. ---

I don’t know if I’m the only one experiencing this, but there has been an existing bug in eWeLink CUBE 2.7.0 that has been carried forward to eWeLink CUBE 2.8.0: Whereby, if you restart iHost, the set scenes won’t execute until you disable and re-enable them. 😢 ---
