SmartThings unable to provide climate entity 2025.3.4

[gitmarecki]

The problem

I have two identical Smartthings AC units. I did face problems during auth change in 2025.3.0 so I re-authenticated and the problem did not occur till 2025.3.2. Then it became on and off.

One of the two devices is not providing climate attribute. It does show every other control except for the climate control, which is basically the control plane of the device and without it I have zero ability to adjust anything. I reported this back in this thread, but the problem disappeared the next day so I did not think twice about it. But now it became permanent.

Log errors showing this:

During reload of the integration I see this:

So apparently your device is able to run with demand response load control. I have one other user who had this, and it was called AI energy mode in the app. I am wondering if you can reproduce this, since your device is in an unexpected state. So if you reload the integration and this happens, it means that you are in the unexpected state, so if you can then download device diagnositcs on the device page (using the 3 dots) that would be great

Hey, here is the same problem. Read only entitys and no climate to take control. THX you very much for the support!

[gitmarecki]

here are the steps I made:

1. turned ON the AC using a remote
2. reloaded the integration (confirmed that it is still shown as unavailable)
3. downloaded the diagnostics mode

4 days later... just like that, without any additional trigger, no updates been made, no restart, no reload - I just woke up to see that everything is working.

Operating the climats controls works (with the usual "bad request" error showing at the bottom of the screen, but it is working), and another thing that started going on since 2025.3 is that controls were working, but state was always shown as off. This time it just works... All like it should.

[joostlek]

Yes, because sometimes your device has an energy saver load control thing enabled, but not filled out completely

[gitmarecki]

is there any way to "force" the device to provide the control thing fully? I tried putting the AC unit in multiple states before turning it off completely, then check on app if status is updated, then reload integration - each time the same result (no state provided).

Then out of nowhere it just updated itself. There was no activity on this AC unit for over 12 hours since I last used it. It seems like there is some background refresh or recovery task on Samsung's side that did that eventually...

[joostlek]

With that device fixture I can find out what to do yes
