Everytime I try to update my thermostats it fails. I have tried mobile and also ewelink web.

I have 1.0.9 and trying to update to 2.2.0.

After placing the sensor next to nspanel pro, the update started after 5 minutes. And it took a very long time.

In iHost it says that 1.0.9 is the last firmware version!

Even after updating to 2.2.0 when connected to ihost. ihost still says version 1.9.0 is up to date.

I join the question. I have the same question, the update is being done the other day. And it’s still not finished.I have the receiver close to the Bridge and I can’t even see the update percentage.Is there a way to reset it? Or do I have to remove and re-pair the Sonoff SNZB-02D?

Placing the sensor near my Zbridge Pro worked for me. I had three failed updates before!

When I removed the battery from the Sonoff SNZB-02D, the update did not start. Then I deleted the data from the application and was able to update again. The update was successful.  
Thank you for the advice. Together we did it. 👍

**Edit:**  
On the back of Sonoff SNZB-02D, just **press the button** gently and the update will be done. It may throw an error that the update failed. **Then update the firmware again** and **press the button on the back of Sonoff SNZB-02D** and the update will be done.

Thanks for the suggestion, moving the SNZB-02D close to the ZB Bridge helped to update the firmware of the SNZB-02D from 1.0.9 to 2.2.0. It takes a while (\>20 Min) and it drains the battery as said by others in this forum.

Hello, I still not solved this update problem and I successfully updated only 1 SNZB-02D on 5… the others always fails… I tried also to put them close to the bridge but it doesn’t work. I took out the battery and turn them on again… no success…

Только что удалось обновить 2 устройства которые до этого никак не хотели обновляться. Обновление удалось сделать следующим образом.

1 Удалил батарейку из устройства.

2 Удалил устройство из аккаунта.

3 Запустил поиск новых устройств.

4 Вставил батарейку обратно в термометр и после этого нажал на кнопку спаривания.

5 Дождался пока в программе не появилось новое устройство и нажал добавить.

6 Имя устройства не менять!!! Сразу в раздел обновления и запустить процесс обновления.

Сработало на 2х устройствах.

Обновлял с 1.0.9 до 2.3.0

Процесс прошивки занимает около 20 минут и наполовину высаживает батарею в устройстве!!!

Успехов.

For me it seems to be connected to Zigbee network stability. Retrying a couple times helps as well as moving devices closer.

Zigbee is a slow low-power protocol, in updates this shows. Why is there No central update periodically option on the Bridge?
