Thanks Mark, I’ll grab and give it a try…
I’ve been having a hunt around and this seems about the nearest match to what I’m seeing…same type of thing…can set and set happens but getting a not responding…and its with a stock handler…
Well, it is a SmartThings problem and not an Amazon problem. Alexa is working again with my Zen Thermostat.
I had an old self published Zen Thermostat device from the repository. So I just edited my Zen Thermostat device and changed it’s device type from the SmartThings published one to this old repository one and now Alexa is giving me correct responses for the Zen Thermostat. I’m just going to keep this repository device type since it supports decimal temperatures which the integrated SmartThings Zen Thermostat device doesn’t.
Update: I just checked and there’s a repository update to the old Zen Thermostat device handler I had so I updated it. Guess what, it broke Alexa again. So, I re-pasted the old device handler back and republished it and now Alexa is happy again.
I found the link…
