Unable to upgrade to custom firmware

[fred-gb]

What happened?

Hello, 👋🏻

I have problem with my Zlinky TIC

I would like to upgrade to a special firware version limited.

But I can't...

What did you expect to happen?

Upgrade from UI or anything else.

How to reproduce it (minimal and precise)

I used zigbee-OTA script. to create an index.json, with last entry:

    {
        "fileVersion": 13,
        "fileSize": 245406,
        "manufacturerCode": 4151,
        "imageType": 2,
        "sha512": "dd77b28a3b4664e7ad944fcffaa9eca9f3adb0bbe598e12bdd6eece8070a8cdda6792bed378d173dd5b4532b4cdb88cebda0ef0c432c4c4d6581aa9f2bbba54d",
        "url": "https://github.com/fairecasoimeme/Zlinky_TIC/releases/download/v13.0/ZLinky_router_v13_limited.ota",
        "force": true
    }

I add force configuration.

In configuration.yml I add:

ota:
  zigbee_ota_override_index_location: my_index.json
  ikea_ota_use_test_url: false

I renamed index.json in my_index.json an put in same directory like configuration.yaml.

I restart my docker Zigbee2Mqtt.

And send message: domotique/zigbee2mqtt/bridge/request/device/ota_update/update with ID of device 0x00158d0006a4018c.

But... No update avaiblable when I try in UI.

Update of '0x00158d0006a4018c' failed (No new image available)

Zigbee2MQTT version

This is beqause of this problem.

#12554

It is not fix at the moment.

You can make a custom converter of this device with the normal ota directory and then the override will work.

@Danit2 when I look at the lixee converter, I don't see much about OTA : ota: ota.lixee, .

What do you mean we should do with this custom converter ?

On the other hand, I have found the file dedicated to OTA for lixee device : https://github.com/Koenkk/zigbee-herdsman-converters/blob/master/lib/ota/lixee.js
I tried to modify it on my install to point to the right ota (ends with "limited.ota") file but it does not seem to change anything. I don't really know javascript, it does not help 😆

[Danit2]

You must replace the ota: ota.lixee with ota: ota.zigbeeOTA then the local ota index is working.

[molusk]

Thank's a lot, I will test this as soon as possible 👏

[molusk]

If I understand well, the next step would be to modify lixee.js to handle custom index (and/or alternative firmware as we are currently trying to push). Huge step for the JS rookie I am 😆

[Danit2]

yes, when you will use the local index you have to write the same function as in this file:
https://github.com/Koenkk/zigbee-herdsman-converters/blob/a3e11ce5ffa9a02f61f296ecf990dc410e2691f0/lib/ota/zigbeeOTA.js#L34

But there i can not help. Sorry.

The issue should be kept open until someone finds a suitable solution.
I don't know JS well and don't have enough time right know to try to solve this issue.

There is a workaround for this issue: #13681 (comment)
Not really a solution, but for a one-time update it is good enough.

[molusk]

Indeed, but there was a discussion about how the creator of the device should manage the firmware variants to allow an elegant way of managing upgrades. Representatives of various zigbee managers (including z2m) were involved.
Nothing was done for z2m yet.
The workaround works but this issue should be kept open until somebody competent enough and willing to do it passes by :)
