We’re excited to announce the start of a new SmartThings Hub Firmware Beta. Version 0.27.x will begin rolling out in batches starting August 12th; we will send out an email when we start updating Hubs. We will be paying close attention to any issues encountered by users so your hub may not get updated right away. The hub will be offline for about a minute during the update. See below for more specific details about the update.

Any chance this fixes the issue with devices not being created while pairing if they have too many endpoints (e.g. 10 or more)?
Unfortunately I was not able to get the beta out today due to a number of issues with Centercode. However the issues have been resolved so the beta (0.27.4) will be going out tomorrow, 8/13. My apologies.
I have gone through many beta signups that were stuck in a pending state. This can be for a number of reasons, but the most common is due to invalid hub information provided at signup. There was also a brief period of time over the last couple of months where the beta signup failed to transition to a screen requesting hub information.
If you received an email from us asking to verify hub information, or you experienced a beta signup process that may not have been complete, feel free to sign up for the beta again (https://goo.gl/Gw4cEK) and send me a DM letting me know and I’ll make sure you’re on this next beta.
@BatraD you are now in the beta and hub is on 0.27.4
At this point all beta user hubs should be updated. If your hub is not updated to the beta release, or have trouble accessing the beta project in Centercode, please send me a DM.
So I should probably spend the afternoon reconnecting all the devices that the last general release knocked off and I haven’t been able to get reconnected for the past month. Good deal, it’s raining today anyway.
Will do. I’ve been monitoring and this is the only time I’ve seen this, and the devices work as expected with both apps and automations. I wasn’t home when these events took place, so it’s impossible to know if they didn’t work when the events happened. I suspect they were probably ok.
Before submitting the report I’m going to watch the event log closely now that I’m home, and if it happens again I’ll send it in right away.
