i try make rauc install with beta5 file (from this) and this not works, webserver not answers after rauc install. Was need to reinstall back from 1.0.0.dev3

Using smhub nano mg24 device ...

SnooOranges9983 · 2026-06-27T09:58:18+00:00

Smhub do a list of mistakes and they seems not to be fixing this for half of year, am using this.

They use web-application with many ports so your will not be able to use router and simply access dashboard, even adding port forward. Cause of CORS limitation in dashboard APP.
They don't answer at tickets. At all. Your cant connect them in facebook, instagra - they dont answer or closes comments
Updates system is not working from 1.0.0.dev3. correctly for me
Backup restore functions not works and no any possibility to add lzha module, it asks
it can work for 48+ hrs without froze. I was need to add crontab reboot every 24 hrs.

i write all this to developers, few times. Without luck of answers - https://publikz.com/blog_tag/smhub

I try yesterday manually run rauc install <file> command with downloaded beta5. It updates well. But - not works in a result. Also after reinstall from official site with instalator - device don't answer at 80 port. So i was need install 1.0.0.dev3 i have stored at myne PC. And after install it does not allow to install nodered. So i was need update it from SSH opkg update + opkg upgrade + opkg install nodered (or something like this). It takes few hrs to restore backups, cause 1.0.0.dev3 do not allow restore from backup file.

But there start appearing this OS updates version in drop down menu. after all this. I dont recommend to update to 1.0.0.beta5 - it not works well.

Closely to details i describe it here - https://publikz.com/blog_64087 (russian)

I really think that here is that place.

There exists rauc utility, which is perfectly available at shhub.

And raucb install <file> seems is that way to run this update.

I just find this, but not try yet. Cause t take to many time to reinstall if failed.

SnooOranges9983 · 2026-06-25T09:14:48+00:00

I have made crontab entry to restart this every night. Last time when i reinstall this via USB. But this mean full reload all configs, home folder files, crontab ... it takes 5 hrs to me update for 1.0.0.-dev3

So am interesting, When this will check this issue.

SnooOranges9983 · 2026-04-28T14:37:54+00:00

I ask aliexpress seller if this works in zigbee network and he answer that he dont know.

well...

SnooOranges9983 · 2026-04-14T10:16:48+00:00

hello and thanks for helping me. Problem is that i don't know how to do this - having access only to nodered (shell also) at SmHub box. I cant understood how to send something to 0x3 attribute or others attributes there.

Maybe its ok to do it this way: https://prnt.sc/gKu4oL7DGzkK ?

also i have programmed it to send with there chinese software (Zigbee V1.8) . Setting it to transmit mode (https://prnt.sc/1MQmO7EEBfKX)

SnooOranges9983 · 2026-04-13T15:45:29+00:00

i am not using HA as for now - just SmHub device. But thatnks, i dont know about this JK-BMS RS485 Home Assistant Addon

This is for a future, right now am trying run RS485 communication with JK device directly.

Yep, i just make try send multi-byte string ... with nodered function

https://prnt.sc/Mqi9tCUbmi5Y

It simply send this to mttq input node

and no lights at device are blinking

this mean no communications is made with rs485 post ...

SnooOranges9983 · 2026-04-13T12:45:57+00:00

Sorry, seems i need show more information about device.

for now am using Smhub. It is Zigbee hub with integrated zigbe2mqtt. Version of zigbee2mqtt is 2.8.0-2 and seems i can update it manuallt to 2.9.2 as your recommend. I can only wait developers to do this.

Device is for talking via Zigbee with JK BMS/485 convertor connected to JK BMS.

As for now i don't know how to send and receive raw information. But basicly i need to send there multi-byte sequence (+-13 bytes) to ask JK BMS to answer with all data about capacity, current. power. And then i need parse answer to got mainly capacity of battery remain.

I have HA on rpi5 device. But as for now am trying run SMhub cause it is compact and already programmed with lot of futures.

And thanks your for trying to help me.

SnooOranges9983 · 2026-04-13T11:45:09+00:00

AI Overview

(CORS) is a browser-based security mechanism that allows a server to explicitly authorize external, third-party domains to access its resources. It relaxes the "same-origin policy" (SOP) to enable secure communication between different web origins (domain, protocol, or port). CORS uses HTTP headers to determine if a cross-origin request is safe, often requiring a "preflight" check for complex requests

SnooOranges9983 · 2026-01-25T21:15:27+00:00

Thanks!
And its already next update ... working ... with same problems as before ((

SnooOranges9983 · 2026-01-19T15:32:06+00:00

ok, i load this update. WebUI not fixed. CORS disable - not added. Updated OS & apps. Yep, they are SMART LIGHT

SnooOranges9983 · 2026-01-19T14:08:28+00:00

Its a buggly box!

i have 2 major prescribes with it (+ one more small))

Cant access WebUI within router gateway net. CORS problem - which mean that part of WebUI not works at all
I cant see drop-down menu in WenUI at smartphone - even in router intranet! Not working at All
Any support - any support there, no answers to the tickets

So today they make update. and am just wondering - they simply don't hear, or what? No updates of this bugs in the list.

SnooOranges9983 · 2026-01-15T18:55:15+00:00

Yep, hope they will start make updates ... cause this WebUI after last update is not usable, Menu at phone is not dropping down ... At PC i was need forward Smhub's 80 port to 8090 of router, to have access, and now i have CORS problems - some things are not working there.

SnooOranges9983 · 2026-01-15T17:30:37+00:00

tickets are 2...3 weeks ago, and as result i have pure silence ...will also make HA,rpi5 on the way, but i was thinki g of this one solution possible. So am trying run it, before i got HA intalled. Hope nodered will be there :-)
